Chapter 375: Shadows of Deception

Drystan's POV

"No!" Nova gasped, rushing forward, but it was too late. The rogue was gone.

I stared down at the lifeless body, my wolf snarling in frustration. He'd been sent here for one reason: to dangle the truth just out of our reach, then snatch it away.

My fists clenched tightly at my sides as the words he'd spoken burned into my mind.

"The truth will destroy you."

The silence in the courtyard was deafening. Nova stood frozen, her hands trembling as she stared at the rogue's body.

"They're toying with us," she said, her voice trembling with anger. "They want us to tear each other apart."

"They won't win,” I said firmly, my voice cutting through the tension. "We'll find the truth, no matter what it takes."

Killian stood beside me, his face unreadable but his eyes shadowed with something dark-something I couldn't quite place.

The sharp sound of footsteps broke the stillness.

Rowena stepped into the courtyard, her expression carefully neutral, though her eyes gleamed with a calculated edge.

"I heard commotion," she said, her voice smooth, as if she hadn't just walked into the aftermath of a rogue's death.

Her gaze flicked to the lifeless body, then to Killian. "Let me guess. Another rogue with a cryptic message?"

Killian's jaw tightened. "What do you know about this, Mother?"

Rowena raised a brow, feigning innocence. "About what? The endless rogue attacks? Or the fact that you seem determined to pin everything on me?"

Nova snapped, stepping forward. "He mentioned the truth, Rowena.
