Chapter 308

• Aysel's POV
• I felt the pulse of the pack even before I stepped onto the stage. The scent of the audience, the rhythm of their breathing—it was all part of the hunt, the dance, the life-force of a wolf among wolves.
• Julia's performance had been a blaze of fire. Her body, her will, her spirit—magnificent, untamed. And my choreography had guided her like the subtle influence of a shadow Alpha, unseen but undeniable. We moved together as predators and prey, partners in a delicate hunt that captivated every eye in the theater.
