Healing Through Trust

Fresh from their public ritual, Sable leaps into her role as Blackridge healer when a border skirmish leaves a warrior near death, her goddess-given golden power sealing his wounds and transforming the pack's wary caution into genuine respect. The victory deepens her explicit bond with Daxon in a passionate knotting that soothes his terror of loss, but across the border Kane watches his political alliance collapse, haunted by vivid memories of the fated mate he brutally discarded.
