Raven’s legs trembled slightly, and the teenagers quickly noticed. They rushed to his side, steadying him by grabbing his arms. 

“Sir, are you alright?” one of the boys asked, worry evident in his voice. 

Raven blinked, his glowing white eyes already fading back to green as his hands left the jar. He took a deep breath, his posture straightening as he looked at the concerned teens. 

“I feel like I’m aging faster these days,” he said with a faint chuckle, brushing off their concern. 

The teenagers exchanged amused smiles, thinking their mentor was simply joking. After all, Raven was known to be one of the most powerful hybrids alive despite his advanced age. 

Raven quickly redirected their attention. “Focus on the objects I showed you earlier,” he instructed, his voice steady but his hands visibly trembling as he covered the jar again. 

When the teenagers finally left for the night, it was already late. Raven stood by the door, ready to close it, when a hand suddenly shot forward, stopping it mid–swing. 

Raven opened the door wider, his sharp green eyes narrowing as he recognized the figure standing there. 

“Beta Finn?” 

Finn’s face was lined with stress, his expression tense and filled with urgency. He nodded, his voice low as he said, “Raven, we need your help.” 

Raven frowned, his grip tightening on the doorframe. For a moment, he hesitated. This was unusual for him–he was always welcoming, even when Alpha Kane had attempted to control him in the past. 

Finn noticed the hesitation and raised an eyebrow, his tone turning suspicious. “Are you alright, old man?” 

Raven avoided his gaze, stepping aside to let him in. “Please, come in. How could I not welcome Alpha Kane’s beta?” 

Finn entered the house, his movements tense. He walked toward the couch but didn’t sit, his urgency making him restless. His worried gaze swung back to Raven as he began speaking. 

“My Alpha isn’t well. He-” 

“Did he go to the Shadowfangs?” Raven interrupted, moving toward the couch and gesturing for Finn to sit. 

Finn’s eyes widened in shock. Yet again, the old wizard’s abilities left him speechless. He had come to expect the unexpected from Raven, but the man’s insight still unnerved him. 

“My Alpha didn’t want me to come to you,” Finn admitted, his voice tinged with guilt. “We argued about it, but I came anyway. I have one request–don’t let the Hawthorne family know about this.” 

Raven raised an eyebrow but said nothing, instead motioning for Finn to sit on the couch opposite him. Reluctantly, Finn obeyed. 

Raven reached for a kettle on the table, pouring tea into a cup. Finn, however, waved his hands

dismissively. “I don’t have time for tea right now,” he muttered. 

Medu 

Raven glanced at him, his green eyes sharp. “You have wounds on your body. This tea is nourishing–it will help them heal” 

Finn’s mouth fell open slightly, surprised. He hadn’t shown Raven his injuries, yet the old man had 

known. 

As he poured the tea, Raven asked casually, “Why is Alpha Kane so afraid to inform the Hawthornes? Isn’t he the mighty Alpha who returned alive from the Shadowfangs, despite being the heir of the Thome family?” 

Finn lowered his head, his voice barely above a whisper. “He’s afraid Alpha Magnus will take his sister away from him. Kane doesn’t want to lose his wife. But…” Finn hesitated, guilt flickering across his face. “There was another woman who came back with us. Kane insisted we bring her. She saved him during the war.” 

Raven set the teacup in front of Finn, his expression unreadable. “Is that so, Beta Finn? Or is it the other way around? Does Alpha Kane truly need someone to save him?” 

Finn’s eyes widened, disbelief in his gaze. He looked away, unable to hold Raven’s knowing stare any longer. Instead, he muttered, “Last night, we discovered she’s pregnant. Is there any way to determine if the child is Kane’s? We can’t even test the DNA for another seven weeks, and Kane’s marriage is in danger.”
