The air was thick with tension as I stood before Alexander, his fangs glistening with a grotesque mixture of blood and saliva. The metallic scent of his breath invaded my senses, a stark reminder of the peril we were in. My heart raced, pounding violently against my ribcage, yet I found myself anchored in place, unwilling to pull away. My fingers tightened around the contours of his powerful muzzle, a lifeline in the chaos.

“Alexander,” I breathed, my voice barely a whisper as I gazed deeply into his obsidian eyes. “I love you.”

In that fleeting moment, time seemed to freeze. His jaws halted, the world around us fading into silence.

“I love you,” I repeated, this time with a surge of determination, my voice stronger and more resolute. My hands cradled his massive wolf face, fingers weaving through the thick, dark fur as I poured my heart into those words. “I’ve always loved you. Only you. Even in those moments when I thought I hated you, my love for you burned brighter than anything else. Can you hear me?”

A low whimper escaped his throat, a sound that resonated with both pain and longing. I felt the tension on Liam’s neck ease just a fraction, and I could hear him draw in a ragged breath. Relief washed over me—thank the Goddess, there was still hope.

“We came here for you,” I pressed on, my voice trembling with emotion. “Liam and I—we climbed treacherous mountains, faced unimaginable dangers, all because we wanted to save you. You are my mate, Alexander. My husband. The father of my child.”

Another whine escaped him, longer this time, laced with agony. I could see a flicker of something shifting within those dark depths—was it green? A glimmer of his true self fighting to break free from the darkness that ensnared him.

“That kiss wasn’t real,” I continued, my heart aching with every word. “It was never meant to be real. We were solving a riddle to obtain the crystal. For you. To help you.” Tears streamed down my cheeks, blurring my vision. “Please, Alexander. Please come back to me.”

His entire body began to tremble, a violent shudder that resonated through the ground beneath us. I felt his jaws release me completely, and he stumbled back, shaking his head as if trying to dislodge the very darkness that clung to him. A howl erupted from his throat, raw and anguished, yet it was unmistakably him.
