“You’re willing to fight me for him?” Thorne roared, his voice a growl that sent a chill down my spine.
“No one’s fighting anyone!” I shouted back, my wolf britting against his. “This has to stop, Thornet Please?!”
But his rage was too far gone. The airbeteren us crackled with tension, fur and flesh snapping together as we collided–his massive black form crashing against my silver–white wolf. The impact knocked us both to the ground, but neither of us backed down. We stood, shaking off the shock of it, faces inches apart, panting, staring each other down.

A fee soldiers gathered behind her, the gares darting nemnly between Thome and my wolf. But not a single one of them moved to intervene. Het with Thorne, not as his woll form.

For a long moment, their was nothing but the tense silence of the battlefield. Then, just as thought I couldn’t take the tension any longer, Thome stopped. He rose. His well form stood rigid, and Usen, slowly, the change began. His features morphed back into human, but it wasn’t graceful his body shock with the effort. His shoulders were slumped in defeat
“I wasn’t my best self today” he said hoarsely, his voice barely a whisper. “Sonly you had to see that.”

I stood there, watching him go, feeling a weight in my chest i couldn’t explain. Why did everything have to be so complicated with him?
Racen stepped up beside me, his voice concerned but soh. I’m sorry for all of that. I know it had to do with me
I shook my head with a bitter smile, my eyes still on the horizon where Thome had disappeared. “It wasn’t about you,” I said, forcing the words through clenched teeth. “it was about Thorne. His ego is just bruised. He couldn’t handle the idea of me choosing someone else over him.”
A long sigh slipped from my lips, the tension finally starting to loosen just want some pesce
Prisca, who had been quiet, tugged at my sleeve. “Come on,” she said. “Let’s get to the market. I could use some help, and you need to keep busy. You’ll just drive yourself crazy thinking about all of this.”
Thesitated but nodded, grateful for the distraction. With a final glanced at the place where Thorne had stood, I turned and walked with Prisca toward the
market
The market was bustling, full of life, the narrow alleyways filled with the voices of haggling customers and merchants. My gaze shifted over the crowd but then I saw her. Micla.
She was working. Actually working.
It took me a moment to recognize the way she was moving–lifting heavy bags, stacking them on shelves. There was no sign of her usual complaints, no whiny tone. Just the rhythms of hard work.
“She’s different,” I whispered to Prisca, my eyes still locked on Miela.
Prisca glanced over “She is,” she agreed. “She wasn’t like this before. Not at all.”
I couldn’t tear my gaze away. Had she really changed? Or was this some kind of act? I didn’t know, but something told me that Miela’s story wasn’t fished yet
“Do you believe it?” asked Prisca, my voice filed with uncertainty
She shrugged. “I like to think the best of people. Maybe she’s finally figured out what really matters. I hope so, anyway
Before I could respond, Prisca called out to Miela, beckoning her over. Miela approached, but her demeanor was different. Calmer. She was no longer the spoiled princess I’d known.
“Hey, I greeted her, trying to keep my voice neutral “How’s it going
Miela smiled shyly. “I’m doing well, thanks for asking.” She shifted awkwardly, clearly uncomfortable in the conversation “This place, it’s been good for
