ASHER 

The moment Kane left my study, I ran to the dungeon at once. I wasted no time, and the moment I reached the man’s cell, I held the small crest in front of the bars. 

me-” 

“What is this?” I demanded, my voice surging with power. 

The imposter’s face paled, but he shook his head swiftly. 

“That… that isn’t mine,” he insisted. “I don’t know why you think it belongs to 

“It was found on your person, was it not?” I retorted, and then I took a step forward. “Dark Abyss, right?” 

own. 

When the man remained silent, I continued on. 

“Is your name really Spi ke Nox?” I asked him directly. 

The imposter refused to answer the question but followed up with one of his 

“Have you considered my offer, young Alpha?” he wondered. “The one I gave you yesterday? Information about your beloved Cora Felix in exchange for my freedom?” 

“You aren’t in any sort of position to bargain,” I seethed as I shook my head. “Besides, that’ll never happen. You were involved in her death. I’d never grant you freedom. You can rot in that cell for the rest of your life for all I care.” 

The man frowned. “I meant what I said yesterday. I will help you find the true murderer-” 

“There’s no need,” I interrupted him. Because I would find it out eventually. Now 

that I’d found my mate, everything else didn’t seem as important. If she wanted revenge, I would deliver it for her. If she didn’t want to bring up the past, I would 

remain silent. 

When it came to Ca ssandra, I’d do whatever she asked. 

The man suddenly looked panicked. He was probably baffled by my sudden shift in attitude. 

“I have other things I can tell you,” he insisted as he gripped the iron bars of his cell. 

“Nothing you have to offer is worth your freedom,” I replied. 

“Then I don’t need it,” the man said. “But I need you to keep me alive, young Alpha.” 

His light brown eyes darted around suspiciously, as if he were being watched. 

“Someone will attempt to take my life,” he said in a hushed tone. “I need you to ensure my safety. In exchange, I’ll tell you anything you want to know. I need a safer place to stay. This cell isn’t safe.” 

I frowned. “This dungeon is one of the safest places in Anemond. No one is going to get to you down here, not without my express permission.” 

For the first time since his imprisonment, the man looked scared. He didn’t seem to be lying. 

Something was troubling him. 

What did he fear? An idea came to my mind. 

“Are you afraid of Oliver Moses?” I asked, and when he frowned, I spoke again. “The man who wanted to kill you in the corridor?” 

“I don’t know who the one is,” the man said. “I was always masked when I saw him. But I know that he would try to kill me if I confessed everything I knew to the 

Alpha King. It’s him I’m afraid of.” 

Masked? 

My confusion grew stronger and I tried to read the imposter’s face. What in the world was he talking about? Half of the sentences and phrases that poured from his mouth made little to no sense. 

Was he insane? 

I took a moment to consider how to proceed. I could always walk away and regroup, but I had too many questions. 

“Spi ke,” I addressed him. “Can I call you Spi ke?” 

The man nodded. 

“Spi ke, let’s see what you can tell me,” I decided, and I crossed my arms against my chest. “But before you get to that, I need you to tell me about Dark Abyss first.” 

Spi ke glanced around. His eyes searched every corner of the dungeon, as if he were afraid of someone eavesdropping. Nearly a minute later, he nodded and took a deep breath. 

“Dark Abyss is where I come from,” he explained. “It’s a small Pack, one that few know about, with a group of talented individuals who worship sorcery.” 

He leaned in closer. “Your Majesty, have you heard of Ewonmiams, the most famous academy of sorcery in history.” 

I nodded. “Yes, I’m familiar.” 

“Well, those within my Pack wanted to duplicate its success,” Spi ke continued. 

in my pack wanted to duplicate “There were whispers and tales that some of my Pack members were actually descendants of the old sorcerers themselves, but without a record of the spells and magics practiced by the ancient spellcasters, it was hard for them to learn or recreate those rituals with any sort of success.”
