• Divorcing The Alpha: Now He Won't Let Me Go   Chapter 76

  Lillian’s POVMy eyes drift off from Keegan and Craig when I hear the cheers ringing behind us, making Maddox and me halt from walking and look back, our gazes being drawn toward the duelling arena where the two cloaked men are fighting again.Their caps are fluttering behind them, moving smoothly in the air like it has a life of their own, and not being the slightest bit of a hindrance for them while they fight their rival with ease.Once again, they won, far faster than when they had fought us.They momentarily stop, standing side by side, with their masked faces looking in our direction, their eyes glinting behind their hoods, before they turn around and disappear back into the shadows of the holding area.The applause for their victory hasn’t even fully died down yet, but they’ve already gone from everyone’s sight.From my peripheral vision, I see Maddox stuck in her place, eyes still on the place where they vanished.“Did you see the way he looked at you?” I said softly, elbowing

  Keegan’s POVWhen I am informed about the warrior competition, coming to this event is a mere formality for me. I only need to make a public appearance as an Alpha and support those warriors under my pack who wish to participate.Above everything else, it’s a huge recruitment opportunity. But aside from that, it’s nothing more than a boring thing I almost had to go through for the past three years.At least, that is what I thought it was, and that is what I am still trying to keep in my mind. For of all the reasons I had before changing, the second I step onto the competition grounds, I see Lillian, standing there with her dear friend and my uncle, entering the place.My stomach is turning from all the emotions I am trying to hold inside… Trying to control my emotions, that’s pushing me to stride over to her side and grab her to mine. But I know that doing so will only make everything worse.I watch with utmost focus, a pounding heart, and a clenched fist on my side, as she approaches

  Lillian’s POV“This year's Warrior Selection Competition now officially… starts!” The host announces, and loud music plays in the background, accompanied by live drums.The open arena roars with excitement.Dust coils in the air with every stomp of a boot on the arena, and the sound of metal clashing in quick, sharp bursts creates a series of sounds that mimic music.On the side, the spectators shout out names and scores as the competition progresses.Making bets is also legal, and it adds energy among the crowds, making the wild cheers from the stands echo around the area, giving the contestant either a will to fight or humiliation that makes them want to dig a hole and hide. But all in all, the energy is electric, sparking through the arena like wildfire.Maddox and I, who are still on the waiting list, stand near the edge of the battling arena. Side by side, we start our stretching in sync and wait for our names to be called soon.And to my dismay, not far from us, with her arms f

  Lillian’s POVI divert my eyes before Keegan can and cling my arm around Maddox, pulling her with me to the registration area as she is joining the competition as well.The ground of the Warrior Selection Event is held in the central park of the neighbouring city, and it is way more lively than we had expected.Vibrant banners ripple overhead, each bearing the badge of a different pack that has a representative in the competition.Countless tents line the perimeter of the central arena where the registration, medical support, vendors, and even recruiter stations are set up. From the crowded bleachers to the grassy commons, the entire place buzzes with energy. Weapons aside from guns are cluttered around for training, and the warriors who have come early have already started warming up. I can even hear some of their General Gammas, who come with the other warriors, talking to them like a makeshift coach as they brainstorm their strategies in whispers, as if it were some trade secret.

  Lillian’s POVIt’s been a week since we found my mother… or the woman I grew up thinking was my mother. The day after that, I visit the Moonstone pack once again to ask her more questions, but her lips are tight shut, and I can’t get anything out of her.Like he promised, Keegan hasn’t severely punished her yet, which could lead to her death. She’s given food, but nothing satisfying, and her holding cell is worse than that of a dog.Aside from that, I haven’t seen her or Keegan again.And the days feel like… It’s just drifting meaninglessly. Empty and uninteresting.Each day, if I am not sleeping and locked in my room, I’ll be in the front yard of my house, training like hell is coming after me. In my mind, I keep thinking that if I keep sweating and moving, then maybe the sharp emptiness that is clinging to my chest like frost will finally crack and melt away.But every night when I crawl back into my bed alone, the silence wraps around me tighter than any blanket. And in that silenc

  Keegan’s POVThe scent of Lillian’s suppressed tears lingers in the air like invisible shards that sting my heart. My fists ball into a tight clench while I stare at Raquel, who completely shattered Lillian’s every last bit of her already broken heart from the pain I have brought to her.Raquel dares to call herself a mother and grieves for the son she has lost, and yet she treats another child whom she could have treated well like a punching bag to vent all her grief.I can still see the pain in Lilian’s eyes. Her beautiful eyes bears raw betrayal, paralyzing confusion, and that silent, bleeding sorrow she tries so damn hard to hide. She hasn’t crumbled yet. And she never does. She is that strong.After all, if she isn’t, she probably will never be able to survive living in my pack with no one standing by her side.But damn, she doesn’t deserve this.She doesn’t deserve a mother like Raquel, even if she is just her adoptive mother… And she sure as hell doesn’t deserve the man I am b
