He kept his composure for two years.
He is done pretending.
Caelan Nightveil appears at Seraphine's door at midnight.
No composure. No Alpha mask. No careful management of something
that has been breaking him from the inside for two years.
He tells her everything - what the rejection cost him, the nights after,
what carrying this has felt like. He does not ask for forgiveness.
He is too honest for that kind of transaction.
He tells her because she deserves the truth, every word of it, unedited.
She does not forgive everything. She does not walk away either.
The space between those two things is where they live now
and it is more honest than anything that came before.
Then Aldric sends his warning.
Sable is a Moonblood wolf - brilliant, hollow, and beautiful
in the way that people are beautiful when something essential was taken
from them long ago. Aldric has been using her as a weapon for a decade.
She is what Seraphine could become without the bond to anchor her.
An argument made flesh. A future made possible.
In the firelight, understanding what Sable represents,
Seraphine reaches sideways without looking and takes Caelan's hand.
On her wrist, the rejection scar warms for the first time
since the night of the ceremony.
