"Tell everyone to gather at the main gate. We're leaving in a few minutes, I barked, my voice as sharp as the tension that gripped me. Scott nodded without hesitation, quickly moving to carry out my command.

1 paced the room, my fists clenched at my sides as the events of last night played over and over in my mind like a cursed loop. My blood boiled with every passing second. I didn't care how it happened-whether Sage wanted it or not-but seeing their lips touch had ignited a fire in me I couldn't extinguish.

The image of Kieran standing so close to her, their faces inches apart, was enough to send me into a frenzy. My wolf clawed at the edges of my control, demanding release, demanding retribution. But I forced it back. There were more pressing matters at hand. I would deal with the mess between Sage and me after I figured out how to secure the pack's future.

Despite the pack's desperate need to gain Alpha Marcus's support, I refused to let him manipulate the situation to force his daughter into a position that was no longer hers to take. That place-my Luna-was already spoken for, even if Sage didn't fully realize it yet.. Even without my memories, my heart had made its decision long before now. The bond I once shared with Anna was nothing more than a shadow of what it used to be. Yes, I could recall the way we used to laugh, the way I used to lose myself in her smile, and how I once worshipped the ground she walked on. But those feelings were frozen in the past, a relic of a life that no longer held meaning for me.

My heart had chosen its true mate, and that was Sage.

I had accepted it. I had made peace with it. Every beat of my heart resonated with the truth of our bond. She wasn't just my mate-she was my future, my Luna.

I only needed a little more time. Time to fix the broken pieces of this chaotic war, to secure the pack's safety, to set the foundation for what was to come. Once everything was in order, I would claim her. Properly, fully, in a way that left no doubts for her or anyone else. I clenched my jaw, forcing myself to focus. I had a pack to lead, alliances to form, and a war to win. But Sage would have to
