The Alpha I Left, The Brother in-law I ChoseChapter 1
My Alpha mate, Razen Blackspire, killed our pup for a liver offering to save my own sister, Navielle, his first mate.
So I did the unthinkable. I bound myself to her mate, Keegan Thunderhowl, to take revenge.
Now, Razen wants me back, and Navielle wants me dead.

Nivella's POV
A cold numbness spread through me as I stood by the carved wooden door, listening to their voices echo inside the stone hall. The scent of wolf musk and moon incense lingered in the air.
“Razen, are you sure no one has sensed it?” Layton asked, his tone uneasy.
“No one,” Razen answered, his voice sharp and calm. “Nivella still believes Sven’s death came from a rogue pack ambush.”
My blood turned to ice.
Sven… My son…
“What about the healers?” Layton continued. “Are you sure they will stay silent?”
Razen let out a low scoff. “I gave them enough gold and bound them by oath. They will carry this secret to their graves. I am the heir of Blackspire. None would dare stand against me.”
Secret?
My heart slammed hard against my ribs.
What secret?
“You took your own son’s life for a liver offering,” Layton said, his voice dropping in disbelief. “For Navielle.”
