The cabin door closes with a heavy thud, shutting out the knife-edged wind. Inside, firelight crackles, stretching long shadows over scars and stillness. Ghost sits motionless, a predator at rest, his dark eyes locked on the small, shivering form curled in his lap. The air hangs thick with the scent of pine and something softer, sweeter. He doesn’t look up as the heavy tread of his old squad’s boots grinds across the porch steps. His hand tightens almost imperceptibly over the omega’s hip—a silent, deadly vow: she is his. The war outside may be over, but the war for his own peace has only just begun, and he will reduce the world to ashes before he lets her slip away.
