THE ROGUE, THE ALPHA AND ME
He was ice. She was chaos. And fate was not done with them yet.
Elaina Rivers is a brilliant doctor with two left feet, a heart full of sunshine, and a mouth that never quits. Falling for a ruthless CEO mafia king wasn’t part of her plan—but the moment she lays eyes on Lucien Blackthorn, the cold, brooding alpha hiding in plain sight, she vows to make him hers.
Lucien doesn’t do love. He does control. Power. Silence. But Elaina? She crashes into his life like a storm—and for the first time, the king of shadows starts to burn.
Just when love begins to bloom in the darkness, Valen Cross—a rogue alpha with secrets and scars—enters the game. He wants Elaina too. And he’ll tear Lucien apart to have her.
But none of them are ready for what the past holds.
Because this isn’t the first time they’ve loved. Or fought. Or bled.
And when Elaina’s memories return, the truth will destroy everything.
She wasn’t the victim. She wasn’t the savior.
She was the reason the war began.
In a world where loyalty is a weapon and love can destroy empires, Elaina must uncover the truth—
Was she truly the villain of their past?
Or was someone else pulling the strings all along?

Chapter: Shadows at Her HeelsElaina didn’t know why her skin prickled with unease as she stepped out of the hospital’s rear exit.It had been a long day—patients, meetings, and Daisy ranting about how she needed a proper date night. The sun had dipped below the skyline, and the world was bathed in dusk’s golden gloom.But something felt… off.She clutched her coat tighter around herself, her heels clicking faster on the pavement as she made her way toward the spot where her car was parked. The air felt too still. The quiet, too unnatural.The rose was the first sign.Single. Crimson. Fresh.Resting on the hood of her car.Elaina frowned, the hospital’s rear lot deserted under the bleeding colors of twilight. She hadn’t told anyone she’d parked here. She hadn’t told anyone she was working late. And she definitely hadn’t told anyone she hated clichés this much.She picked up the rose slowly, the stem still dewy.A note was tucked beneath it.Just one word.“Lovely.”Her stomach tightened.Not in a swoony, rom-com k

Chapter: Blood in the Shadows He hadn’t bled in years.Not from wounds, at least.The cut on Lucien’s palm was shallow, but it dripped crimson across the cold marble like a warning. It wept through the cracks of shattered glass, mingling with the last remnants of whiskey.Still, he didn’t feel it.The pain came from somewhere else.His eyes stayed fixed on the screen.A single image burned there like a brand across his chest.Elaina Rivers.Captured mid-laugh outside the hospital, umbrella in one hand, a takeaway coffee in the other. Daisy stood beside her, all sunshine and stories.But it wasn’t her smile that chilled him.It was what stood behind her.A figure, half-swallowed by shadow. Too still. Too wrong.And eyes that glowed—not with life. But with hunger.Lucien’s phone buzzed.Unknown Number: Still think she’s safe?---Twelve Hours Earlier…The storm came without warning.Rain didn’t fall—it slammed against Blackthorn Tower like fists demanding entry. Thunder cracked like the gods were hunting something

Chapter: Breaking the Ice and Unknown dangerThe sealed elevator was never used. No one had touched the keypad in years—until now. The guard who noticed it blinked, rubbed his eyes, and swore under his breath. A single command had lit it up, flashing Level -7, a floor that didn't officially exist in Blackthorn Tower's blueprints. Then it went dark again. As if it had never happened. As if something had awakened. --- Elaina hadn't slept. Not really. Not since Lucien's rejection. And yet, she'd never felt more awake. Fueled by a fury that felt too much like heartbreak, she painted her lips red, slipped into a wine-colored dress that could start fires, and set one goal for the day: Make Lucien Blackthorn see her. Not as a distraction. Not as a mistake. As his match. Lucien hadn't answered a single one of her texts. Not that she expected him to. After his brutally cold rejection, anyone else would've walked away in tears, maybe booked a one-way flight out of town to nurse a shattered ego. But Elaina Rivers wasn't an

Chapter: A War Between UsThere was blood on Lucien's cuff.Not fresh. Barely a smear. But enough.He hadn't noticed until the morning light hit his wrist as he adjusted his sleeve, revealing the dark red line like a secret that refused to be buried.His jaw clenched.It wasn't his.And it had nothing to do with Elaina.That was the problem.He hadn't had time to clean up the mess he made last night. Not after her.She'd said she loved him. In the same breath that reeked of defiance and devotion.He should've erased her memory. He should've ended it.But he hadn't.And now?She was becoming a reason.And that was dangerous.He turned away from the window as the door to his office creaked open.Elaina stepped into his office, the door creaking slightly as she pushed it open. She had barely slept. Her eyes were slightly puffy, but she held her chin high, determined.Lucien stood behind his desk, every inch the icy CEO king—impeccably dressed, emotionless, still.He didn't look up."I knocked," she said. "Twice.

Chapter: Mine, Whether You Bleed or BurnElaina was holding a paintbrush.Which would've been fine—if it weren't currently dripping blood-red paint on a balloon that looked suspiciously like Marissa's face."Uh…" a small child tilted their head. "Is my bunny… dying?"Elaina blinked. "It's... artistic expression. Postmodern decay. Very in."The kid walked off, unimpressed.Daisy appeared behind her with narrowed eyes. "Okay, Picasso. You want to talk about the murder you're planning, or just keep stabbing bunnies?""I'm not jealous," Elaina said."You said that five minutes ago. Right before you tried to draw fangs on a rainbow."But Elaina wasn't listening anymore.Because Lucien wasn't alone.He never was, not lately. Not with Marissa.Today, though, something was off. Marissa was standing a bit too close. Her smile a bit too sharp. And Lucien? He wasn't even pretending to care.But he wasn't leaving either.Elaina's breath caught when Marissa touched his arm—and Lucien didn't flinch.Why now?He hated people touching him.

Chapter: The Sunshine CurseThe scream that had shattered the picnic's peace turned out to be a false alarm—nothing more than an overenthusiastic balloon popping near the magician's tent. But for Lucien Blackthorn, who'd instinctively scanned the crowd like a sniper about to strike, it was a brutal reminder of why he didn't do "relaxing."The golden hour crept in like a secret, cloaking the park in peach and lavender. Children, undeterred by the brief chaos, resumed their bubble-chasing adventures. Elderly patients snoozed beneath knitted blankets, sun-warmed and smiling.Lucien stood alone, beneath the tallest tree in the park—the one with bark like battle-worn armor. His arms crossed, expression unreadable, presence unmistakable. Without Kade, who had gone on his own mini-vacation, Lucien looked even more out of place.He'd already stayed longer than he promised. Longer than anyone expected.But he hadn't left.Not yet."Elaina, the magician's rabbit just escaped and it bit someone!""What?!" Elaina shot up fr
