Killian
The mind link hit me like a blade to the chest.
Killian, get to the park, quick. Something happened to Grace!
Max’s voice was sharp, panicked, and I didn’t wait for more. I was already moving, the runes on my floor forgotten, the door flung open so hard it cracked against the stone wall. My boots thundered down the corridor, past startled guards and servants who barely had time to bow.
The park.
Grace.
My heart is a war drum, each beat louder than the last. I don’t shift—I don’t need to. My Lycan surges beneath my skin, lending me his speed, power, and focus. Nash is growling inside my head.
‘If anything happens to Grace, I’ll kill everyone! And I don’t give a fuc.k what you say!’ He yells inside my head.
‘Calm down!’ I hiss. ‘Now isn’t the time for this, Nash.’
He groans
