Chapter: Chapter 65: This Is What Power Feels Like ElizabethThe morning sunlight came in through the window. The Parkhouse was quite peaceful. I let out a breath of ease, my life felt perfect, blissful.I was Luna, the mate to Nathan. I still couldn't believe it happened; it still somehow felt like a dream.Everything here belonged to me—servants, cars, money even as small as the tile on the floor, it was all mine.Everything was finally how it was supposed to be.“Maria,” I said, my voice snapping through the quiet room.The maid, young, timid, probably no older than twenty froze halfway across the room. She clutched the tray in her hands so tightly I could hear the faint clink of the teacup shaking against the saucer.“I told you to warm the tea, not boil it,” I hissed elegantly, rising from the couch. “Or is basic command far too complicated for you to understand?”“I—I’m sorry, ma’am,” she stammered, lowering her gaze. “I’ll fix it right away.”“Ma’am?” I asked, walking towards her, my heels clicking on the floor. “You don't call

Chapter: Chapter 63: The Demon Wolf's TruthNicholaiThe room was dark, and the only light that came in was from the city lights shining through the window, the smell of sweat filling the air. Every single time my knuckles landed on the punching bag, I saw her face, her eyes were worse; she was terrified, right before I lost control.The sound of the bag snapping against the chains filled the room.Again.Again.Until I stopped feeling my hands.“Damn it!” I roared, slamming my hands into the wall next to the punching bag. The wall cracked immediately. I didn’t care as the pain shot through my body. I deserved it.“Nicholai.”Her voice froze me.I didn’t turn. I couldn’t.“You’ve been down here for hours.”“You shouldn’t be here,” I managed to say in a tough voice.“Nicholai, you’re hurting yourself.”“Better me than you,” I said harshly, finally looking at my reflection in the shattered mirror. My eyes looked darker, hair a complete mess. “You shouldn’t have come. Just go... please. I don’t want to hurt you.”“I do not care,”

Chapter: Chapter 62: Space Between Us KaimaThe packhouse still smelled the same. I didn’t want to admit it, but I’d actually missed this place and I missed the pack too, so much.I told myself I wasn’t nervous as I climbed the stairs to Nathan’s office, but that didn’t even sound convincing to my own ears.He’d asked to see me, and my heart kept skipping a beat. It was just business, I repeated to myself an unhealthy amount of times.When I reached the door, I paused, dragging in a deep breath before knocking.“Come in,” his voice came, deep and controlled as always.I stepped inside, and he was seated behind his desk, the afternoon light coming in through the window. When my eyes met his, it felt like he had the ability to make me stop breathing, those eyes, those beautiful eyes.What the hell, get your shit together, Kaima, I said to myself.“Kaima,” he said, his voice low but firm. “You came.”I nodded, giving a polite smile. “You asked me to,” I said awkwardly.“Sit,” he said, gesturing to the chair in front of his d

Chapter: Chapter 61: The SlipKaima“Are you sure you want to do this?” Nicholai asked, circling me like prey. I was breathing heavily, the sound echoed through the penthouse training room.“You’re supposed to hit me, not dance with me.”I rolled my eyes, trying to adjust my stance. “I’m trying to hit you; it’s just that you’re too annoyingly fast.”The sunlight accentuated his facial features, the way his hair fell across his forehead when he moved and goddess help me, he was so damn handsome. Fast wasn’t even the word, I was expecting something more fitting.“Okay, fine,” I said, tightening my grip on the sword. “You’re fast, infuriating, and cocky. Better?”“Much,” he said, that devastating smirk pulling at his lips.He lunged forward toward me, the movement so accurate it was like watching water flow. I managed to block his hits before he twisted my wrist, disarming me effortlessly. My weapon fell to the ground.“Not fair,” I panted, stepping back, breathing heavily.He picked up my sword with one hand, spinne

Chapter: Chapter 60: Bloodshot Nathan"I'm fine," I said for what felt like the hundredth time.The healers shared unconvinced glances among each other, but they didn’t hover too close for comfort. “Can you all stop worrying?” I waved them off. “I said I’m fine.”“Alpha, you passed out in the middle of your office. That’s not normal. You need rest,” one of them said.“I don’t rest,” I snapped, the words harsher than I intended them to be. I took a deep breath, trying to calm down. “I promise you all, I’m fine.”The room went silent. The only sound that remained was that of the machine they used to stabilize me. My body felt like it was bleeding from the inside out, but I refused to show it.I was an Alpha, and I wasn’t supposed to show weakness.With a slow breath, I swung my legs off the bed. My head spun, but I forced myself to steady. “See? Perfectly fine.”The healers hesitated, but none of them dared to argue further. They bowed slightly before stepping out of the room, leaving me alone in the stillness of the

Chapter: Chapter 59: The One I Can't ForgetKaimaI sat at the edge of the bed, my hands digging into my hair as I kept staring at the floor. The city lights streamed through the window of the penthouse. The night was beautiful, too beautiful for how ugly my chest felt right now.Nathan was at the packhouse, surrounded by healers and worried pack members, and here I was pretending that seeing that mark on Elizabeth’s neck didn’t kill me. I couldn’t stand being in that place, even though I wanted to be with Nathan so badly.I wanted to stop crying, I really did. I wanted to just breathe and forget any of this, but no matter how much I wiped my face, the tears kept rushing down.Nicholai said nothing at first. He just stood there for a while, leaning against the window, his hands shoved into his pockets. I knew he could hear everything from my racing heart to the way I tried to hide a sniffle.Finally, he sighed and walked toward me. “You can’t keep pretending,” he said softly.I didn’t look up. “Pretending about what?”He came a

Chapter: Chapter 24: Pray Nothing Happens To Her KieranMy head pounded like someone was beating a drum inside it. Sweat dripped down my jaw as I punched the bag again and again, not even bothering with hand wraps.The bag started ripping with each heavy hit, splitting in half. Blood smeared across the surface, but I didn't feel the pain. Couldn't feel anything except the burning ache in my chest.I couldn't think straight. Her face kept showing up in my mind every damn second.The way she looked when she got into his damn car—like I didn't exist. Like I was nothing. That look made something crack inside me."Arghhhh!” A loud roar tore from my throat as I drove my fist straight through the bag with an unearthly force.Sand exploded everywhere, covering the floor, my arms, my face.I stood there breathing hard, chest heaving, staring at my bloody knuckles. They were already healing fast, the cuts closing up. But the ache in my chest? That wasn't going anywhere.I walked away from the destroyed bag and grabbed the deadlift weights—any

Chapter: Chapter 23: Stoop Low My palm clenched tightly around the white rose I was holding as I watched Sarah walk away. With every step she took, her words dug deeper into my chest. My throat felt tight. My heart felt like someone was squeezing life out of it till I couldn't breathe.I forcefully tore my gaze away, fixing my attention on the beautiful flowers before me, hoping they would help calm me down. But her voice kept playing in my head over and over again."It must sting doesn't it? Knowing he still wants me despite having— a mate.”My fingers that were wrapped around the rose tightened more.“Were they really that close? Close enough to share a kiss?“Damnit,” the curse tore from my throat before I could stop it. I angrily kicked the grass, my heels gouging into the earth. My face twisted in anger. If there was something within reach, I could have broken it to release the fury coiling tighter and tighter in my chest.I was halfway to storming out of the garden when my phone buzzed.I paused, pulling it

Chapter: Chapter 22: I Don't Care About Kieran Sarah.I gripped the table in the office, inhaling deeply to calm down, and slowly —a smirk curled up the corner of my lips.Rubyrose's expression as she heard me mention the kiss was more satisfying than I imagined it to be.I had seen her there through the slightly open door, about to walk past and so I quickly brought up the kiss—thanks to my smart wolf—Lymph."I knew hearing about the kiss would break her. Did you see the way she froze?" Lymph's voice broke out in a cunny cackle and I felt my smirk widen."Good one, Lymph, and just as expected, she left before Kieran could clear the air." I chuckled darkly, reliving the look on her face.I would pay a thousand gold to see that pained look blow up her face again.And at that moment it clicked—Kieran's words to me. 'I'm warning you, Sarah. You'll show my mate respect. I repeat, starting now, every responsibility you hold would be handed to her' And just like that—like fuel added to a quenching fire, I felt the already dissipating

Chapter: Chapter 21: Over My Dead BodyKieran sat gently on the dark swivel chair of his home office. He was lost in thought. His fingers were intertwined, elbows resting on his large glass table.His brows were slightly furrowed, his lashes lowered as his gaze was fixed with pure uncertainty on the system in front of him.He kept staring at the open document displayed on the screen of his laptop but his mind wasn't there—it was on the last comment Rubyrose made.How about we wait till the night of the Luna ceremony?“Darnmit!” He growled, taking off his mask as he massaged his temples, running a finger to soothe the crease between his brows.Eros stirred restlessly, pacing inside him like a storm that could barely be contained.“You made a mistake, Kieran,” Eros snapped. “What were you thinking when you said we’ll claim her on the next full moon. That’s too far away. I can’t wait that long.”Kieran groaned softly, dragging a hand through his hair. “You think I don’t know that? When I made that statement, I didn't know I w

Chapter: Chapter 20: Stormhowl Pack — Max's Office“Argggghh!!!” I growled in fury, emptying my desk of its contents as I pushed away the files and system sitting on it. The loud clattering sound echoing in the once calm office, pieces of paper flying across the room.Samantha, my beta, flinched at the loud noise, her gaze betraying how worried she was. But I didn't give a damn—I was mad.My breaths pulsed out of my nostrils heavily, rage coloring my face, my chest heaved up and down and my palms curled into a fist. All I could feel was my soul drowning in hate and frustration. I hated that darn bastard. I hated him so much. He wanted my pack, and now my woman?Never!Another loud growl escaped my lips as I recalled the way he had kissed her—the arrogant way he had possessed her."Fuckkk!" I cursed heavily, picking up the vase beside me, I hauled it hard across the room. It hit the wall, shattering to pieces. A broken shard cut across Samantha's arm.I heard her sharp intake of breath but I didn't spare her a second glance. “Max for

Chapter: Chapter 19: In His Bed Rubyrose "Ruby," His voice came out rough, low, yet gentle. I lifted my eyes to meet his gaze. I swallowed hard, seeing the intense desire burning in them. "You really want me to tell you that?" His voice dropped to a whisper, his right hand coming to the side of my face, he tugged my hair gently to the back of my ears. I could literally hear the beating of my heart.He was close—too close.His expression was calm, his gaze soft, yet desire was rigid in his eyes, standing there like his organ of sight, and gazing down at me.My heart skipped a beat, at his words. Raw and unbidden, I trembled, the yearn in his gaze and the gentle slides of his fingertips against my skin was burning. I felt heat crawl beneath my skin, and my thighs tingled at the effect of his proximity, I shut them close. Gulping. I didn't understand what was going on. Something stronger than me was pulling at me. I couldn't resist. Somehow I found myself, slicking my arms around his neck and pulling him closer. The
