Lorien POV
It was almost impossible to believe that the most dangerous Alpha alive was standing right in front of me his hands gripping my arms, holding me so close that barely an inch of air existed between us.
Those hands… I couldn’t begin to fathom how many lives they’d claimed, how much blood they’d spilled. Yet here they were warm against my skin sending a strange current through my body that blurred the line between terror and something else entirely. My pulse thundered, and I couldn’t tell if it was fear or adrenaline making me tremble.
I had grown up hearing whispers about the Dark Blade Pack stories so gruesome that even the bravest warriors avoided speaking their name aloud. They weren’t just deadly. They were cursed.
Humans liked to call us monsters, but they had no idea. T
