Foxed by the Alpha

If Aris finds out her secret, shes completely foxed.

Aris

I was raised knowing exactly who Im supposed to be.

Heir to the Shadowsynger line.
Future Alpha King.
A life built on duty, legacy, and every expectation that comes with the crown.

Ive accepted all of it.
Ive trained for all of it.
Ive never questioned my path.

And then theres Posey.

My best friends little sister—grown now, and no longer someone I can ignore.
Soft where my world is sharp. Steady in the places where I break.
The one person I cannot want…and cant seem to stay away from.

She keeps her distance.
She looks at me like shes already bracing for the ending.
Like shes holding something Im not supposed to see.

I dont know what it is.
But I can feel it.
A truth that sits between us like a blade.

I should let her go.
I should choose duty.
I should protect the future Ive been shaped to inherit.

But the bond doesnt care about should.
And Ive never been the type to surrender whats mine—
even if I dont fully understand why its her.

Desire. Loyalty. Secrets sharp enough to cut.
