Adrian POV
I watched Lawson leave the ward after checking on her. A soft sigh escaped my lips.
I really had a lot of work to do.
With each passing day, the mysteries surrounding Stella didn't just deepen—they multiplied. They twisted into shapes I didn't recognize, into questions that clawed at the edges of my sanity.
At first it was an unexpected surge of energy in her body, and now, the same energy awakened her healing abilities and more terrible she was wolfless.
What was she exactly?
The question throbbed in my head, pounding in time with my pulse. My thoughts chased each other in vicious circles, none of them offering answers.
I had faced ancient Alphas, rogue kings, blood rituals, forbidden covenants—and yet nothing had unsettled me the way Stella's existence did.
My head throbbed with questions that I don't have the answer to..
If only I could locate the whereabouts of that woman… I believe she has a lot to answer.
My jaw tightened.
