The rogur medic finished wrapping my ribs before stepping away quietly. The skarp scent of antiseptic mixed badly with

concrete, old blond, and woll suppressants lingering inside the underground shelter.

“You need another day here” the medic warned.

“I cant May another hour,” I replied.

Nobody stayed hidden long inside rogue territory anymore. Alpha surveillance drones monitored most underground trade routes now, especially after council corruption started leaking publicly across multiple territories.

I pulled my hood higher before checking the encrypted communication feed again. Half the old Alpha networks had gone silent after Holmes’ scandals spread online.

The comments underneath recent public hearings felt almost unreal now. Wolves openly defended Amorah across territory channels while Holmes’ supporters disappeared one by one.

I hated how much that still bothered me.

Even now, part of me still felt bitter watching Amorah become everything I failed to become. Wolves trusted her naturally while I spent years manipulating people just to survive politically beside Holmes.

The worst part was realizing she never even tried to compete with me.

She simply existed beside the twins, beside Conrad, beside the territory, and somehow everyone chose her anyway. Even the children chose her without hesitation.

Kyra’s face flashed briefly inside my memory. The little girl used to avoid physical affection from almost everyone except Zane. Now she clung to Amorah constantly.

r Zane had changed too. He used to watch adults like he expected betrayal from every direction, but lately his guard lowered around Amorah in ways I had never seen before.

That alone should have warned me years ago.

I leaned back carefully against the clinic wall while pain spread sharply through my ribs again. Holmes’ wolves had nearly found me three nights ago near the eastern border tunnels.

If I had shifted fully, they would have caught my scent immediately. Instead, I hid beneath industrial scent blockers unti they passed the drainage sector completely.

The rogue medic handed me another suppressant patch silently. “You should leave before sunrise.”

“I know.”

The old underground clinic sat beneath a collapsed border checkpoint abandoned after earlier succession disputes. Most legal wolves avoided this region now because rogue traders controlled nearly every hidden tunnel beneath the territory

understanding the full truth changed everything.

Amorah was never simply the unwanted Luna Holmes discarded after chasing power beside me. She was already marked for removal long before their marriage collapsed.

Her mother knew it too.

My stomach turned immediately afterward.

Holmes never understood what kind of woman Amorah actually was because he never cared enough to look deeper than usefulness. Even now, his obsession centered more on bloodline inheritance than the damage he caused emotionally.

That was what terrified me most.

I pushed myself upright slowly before grabbing my coat from the broken chair nearby. Pain shot through my ribs hard enough to make me curse under my breath.

The medic looked irritated immediately. “You’re reopening the injury.”

“I’ve survived worse.”

“Barely.”

Fair point.

I ignored him anyway before pulling my tablet closer again. The latest location ping updated automatically across

Holmes had crossed the outer ridge sectors already.

Toward Amorah.

Fear mixed strangely with resentment inside me then. Part of me still hated how Amorah survived everything meant to destroy her.

But another part understood something ugly now.

If Holmes reached her in this condition, he would not care who got hurt anymore.

I activated a secured communication relay quietly before attaching the convoy files beside the warning alert. The encrypted network hesitated for several seconds before finally processing the transfer request.

Destination confirmed: Conrad Northern Territory Security Command.

I stared at the screen afterward while my pulse pounded unevenly beneath my skin. Maybe this was self-preservation more than guilt.

Maybe I simply refused to die protecting Holmes’ secrets anymore.

Another alert flashed suddenly across the map interface before the message fully transmitted. Holmes’ tracking signal disappeared briefly near the northern forest routes.

Then reappeared much closer to Conrad’s territory borders.
