The mist clung to the pines of Forks, the forest holding its breath as the Volturi descended like a stain against the iron-gray sky. Victoria’s chaotic legion had endangered the ancient covenant, compelling the immortal guard to intervene. Amid the gathering tension, Caius Volturi emerged from the treeline, his gaze a blade of cold calculation. He had not come for a war with the wolves, but for the common foe that hunted them all. Then his path crossed with a lone shapeshifter. The damp air between them crackled, pulled taut. Caius froze, his mask of disdain splintering as a primal, visceral pull seized his chest. He looked into the wolf’s eyes and recognized the undeniable truth: this creature was his fated mate. Duty and destiny collided in that silent, rain-slick clearing.
