Ivory's POVI hadn’t meant to kick the kit like that, but panic had taken over. My eyes had caught the injections, pills, and suddenly it all felt too much. Memories I was trying so hard to bury rushed back at me, and I lashed out.Now I was frozen, staring at the scattered contents on the floor, feeling utterly dumbfounded. My heart was pounding. What had I just done?The door burst open, and Lucille stormed in. “What was that noise?” she demanded, her eyes scanning the room. Then she spotted me, and the doctor, and the mess. Her gaze sharpened, teeth clenched. “It was you, wasn’t it? You crazy girl!” she spat, stepping forward.I flinched as Hakan’s hand reached out, gripping her wrist. “Mind your language,” he said, his voice like ice. “No one asked you to come in here.”Lucille stared at him, defiant. “But I heard the loud crash! I was supposed to come in and check—”“Check what?” Hakan’s tone snapped. “If I got hurt? Really? Am I a baby? You know who I am. Don’t ever barge into m

Hakan’s POV “Forgive you?” I repeated, my brows furrowing as I stared down at her. She was on her knees. Head lowered. Hands pressed to the floor like I was some evil king about to pass judgment. Something in my chest tightened painfully. This wasn’t how it was supposed to be. I had waited for years to finally meet her. The one my wolf had searched for, yearned for. I had imagined this moment so many times. Not this. Not her trembling like I was about to kill her. I exhaled slowly, running a hand through my hair as I tried to steady the frustration building inside me. She was scared of me. Not just scared, terrified. Terrified enough to run away from me and drop on her knees, begging me not to kill her. My gaze fell back on her, still kneeling there, still shaking. “I brought you here to protect you,” I said finally, my voice lower now. “Not to have you kneel before me like I’m your executioner.” I took a step closer, then stopped myself, noticing how her shoulders tense

Ivory's POV My heart pounded wildly as I ran, my breath coming in short, uneven gasps. The hallway blurred past me, but I didn’t slow down. I just needed to get out. When I finally caught sight of the exit ahead, relief filled my chest.Just a little more. Once I crossed that gate, I’d be free. I could leave all of this behind and start over somewhere no one knew me.But just as I pushed forward, I collided into someone.The impact was sudden and hard. Glass shattered around me. I staggered back, holding my head as pain hit me. “Ah,” I winced, blinking through the dizziness as I looked up.A man stood in front of me, holding what remained of a tray. His face twisted in anger.“I’m really sorry, I didn’t—” I started, but I didn’t even get to finish.His hand stretched out toward me.I froze, my body locking up. My eyes shut tightly, bracing for the slap.But it never came. There was complete silence.Slowly, I opened one eye.Then the other. A hand had caught his wrist just before he

Ivory's POV The moment the lamp hit his face, time seemed to snap back into place.I gasped, I hadn’t meant to do that.I didn’t even remember deciding to throw it.It was like my body had moved on its own.“Ah!” I winced, staring at what I had done.The crash echoed through the room, followed by a sharp inhale from someone behind me.The woman who had been glaring at me rushed forward instantly.“Hakan,” she cried, panic lacing her voice.She moved in front of him, inspecting his face with trembling hands.That was when I saw blood running down from his forehead, tracing the side of his cheek.My stomach dropped. They were definitely going to kill me. There was no doubt now.I had just attacked an Alpha in his own pack house.I swallowed hard, my throat painfully dry.“Alpha, you’re bleeding so much,” the woman said, her voice shaking between anger and worry.Then she turned to me. Her blue eyes blazed. “You… you insane wretch.”She moved toward me. I flinched violently, raising my

Ivory's POV My head felt like someone was pulling it apart with brutal force.A sharp ache throbbed behind my eyes as I slowly opened them. At first, everything was blurry, spinning shadows and light blending together. I blinked, trying to focus, but dizziness washed over me again.My head hurt. My stomach twisted. Every single part of my body ached.I swallowed weakly and blinked again.Gradually, my surroundings began to come into view.I could see soft lighting, elegant curtains, and walls that weren’t damp stone. The air carried a faint, sweet scent that felt warm and comforting.My brows furrowed. Was this another hallucination? Were the injections messing with my head again?They had made me see and feel things that weren’t real. Was this another cruel trick?I shifted slightly, clutching my head.That was when I felt the softness beneath me. My fingers pressed down instinctively to the soft bed.My heart skipped. What was going on?This wasn’t the dungeon. Had Beta Alaric mov

Hakan's POV “Who did this?!” I roared.My voice thundered through the dungeon, shaking dust from the stone walls.“I don’t understand.” I snarled, turning toward the guards. “Why is she in this cell? Why is she locked up in here? Open this fucking cell!”“Hakan, stay calm,” Callum said, stepping closer. “What’s going on? Do you know her?”I tore my gaze from the bars long enough to look at him. “She’s my mate, Callum.”“What?” he breathed.I looked back at her. She was barely conscious, slumped against the cold wall. She looked so frail and underfed. Her breathing was shallow and uneven.I wanted to hold her. To shield her and tear apart anyone who had laid a hand on her.“Open this cell before I break it down myself,” I growled.And I could. I was an Obsidian wolf, one of the most powerful wolves alive. If they refused, I would rip the bars out of the stone and use them to crush their heads.My mate trembled faintly on the floor.Then two guards rushed into the corridor.“What’s goi

Levi slowly lifted his head from her lap and turned to face her, his gaze locking onto hers with a hint of a smirk. Then, he pointed to his lips.“Here.”Kaliyah’s mouth parted slightly. Her eyes widened just a little. This man was unbelievable, and he made her heart race like nothing else.Her lips twitched. “Do you… want me to scratch it?”His smile deepened, lazy and charming. “Yes,” he said, leaning in a bit closer. “With your lips.”He was so close now, close enough that she could feel the soft warmth of his breath caressing her skin, she could see every speck of blue in his intense eyes. Her breath caught in her throat, suddenly feeling heat spread through her body. She didn’t even know when she became like this, when she started wanting to melt under his touch, wanting to…Kiss him.Levi leaned in even closer. Their lips were barely a whisper apart now. Her heart thudded against her ribs, as though it was trying to escape her chest and run straight into him.“Kaliyah,” he murmu

Her hand moved to his cheek, and he leaned into her touch.“I am,” he admitted. His voice was quiet, but the weight in it was unmistakable. “I’m not going to rest until I find out who did this. And when I do…” His jaw tensed. “They’ll pay.”But before he could say more, Kaliyah leaned forward and wrapped her arms around him.He froze for half a second as he was caught off guard.“I know you will,” she whispered against his shoulder. “But stop being so upset. I don’t like it when you get mad.”Her hand slid into his hair, stroking it gently, as if taming both the man and the beast beneath.A faint smirk curled at the corner of Levi’s lips.His mate… was calming him, trying to soothe him.And it was working, he felt his wolf stir in contentment under her touch, quieted by her presence.When she finally pulled back, she gently cupped his face in her palms and pressed a soft kiss to his forehead.Levi’s eyes widened slightly.He hadn’t expected that, and for a second, he just stared at he

‘Bring some food up for Kaliyah. Now.’‘Yes, Alpha.’ came her immediate response, and he cut the link.He continued holding Kaliyah. But his blood boiled underneath his calm exterior.Inside the packhouse, someone had done this. Someone was fully aware that she was the Alpha's mate, and yet still pulled such a stunt.He clenched his jaw tighter, keeping the rage under the surface as his hands gently stroked her back, and his lips pressed against her forehead.A few minutes later, a soft knock came at the door. Felicia entered carefully, carrying a tray of warm food. She placed it on the table beside the bed.Levi looked at Kaliyah gently. “It’s time to eat, my love. You need something in your stomach.”She nodded slowly, tucking her hair behind her ears. He rose up, wiping the last of her tears with his thumb.“Don’t cry anymore, okay? I’ll be back in a bit. I just need to check on a few things.”She nodded again.Before leaving, Levi turned to Felicia. “Make sure she eats something.”

He turned sharply and called out to the two guards nearby. “Has the Luna left the packhouse at all this morning?”Both guards shook their heads. “No, Alpha. We’ve been here all morning. No one left.”“Good. Get two more men and start searching every inch of the packhouse. Now!”“Yes, Alpha,” they said before quickly taking off in opposite directions.Levi turned a corner, the tension in his chest thickening.But then he heard a scream, a faint, muffled scream. It was his mate!He stilled. His heart jolted. “...Mate,” he whispered.Ray and Oliver looked at him. “What did you say?” Oliver asked.“I heard her,” Levi said again, louder this time. And then he abruptly moved fast, toward the sound, following the invisible string tugging at his core.He reached a door, and behind it he heard her cries and the thud of her fist against the door.Levi’s heart clenched. He gripped the knob and tried to turn it, but it was locked.“Kaliyah!” he called out, his voice filled with urgency.Inside,

The voice replied in a calm tone. “Yes, I do. This way.”Her eyes lingered on the figure for a bit too long. There was something strange about him. But in her heart, all she wanted was to find Levi. So she followed.The figure led her quietly through another corridor, one she hadn’t taken often before stopping at a plain wooden door.“He came back very late last night,” the figure said. “Around midnight, I think. He’s inside. You should go see him.”Kaliyah nodded slowly. “Thank you,” she said, though she was still trying to place who this person was. She didn’t remember ever seeing someone like that around the packhouse, and certainly not in a cloak.She walked up to the door, slowly turned the knob, and stepped inside.The room was dimly lit by a narrow window. She looked around and discovered it was empty.There was a desk. Two burlap sacks lying in the corner. The space was barely furnished. Dust clung to the corners of the room. “Maybe he made a mistake,” she whispered to hersel

She stirred slightly, and then opened her eyes to see Oliver standing beside her. “It’s past 9 p.m. already,” he said softly, “You should go upstairs and rest.” Kaliyah blinked a few times, the fog of sleep still clearing from her eyes. She sat up slowly and looked around, noticing the dark sky outside the window. The house was dim now, most of the lights switched off. Her brows furrowed. “Is Levi back yet?” Oliver hesitated. She turned her gaze to him more intently now. He scratched the back of his head and gave a faint smile, the kind that didn't reach his eyes. “No… he’s not back yet.” Her expression shifted, her lips pressing into a thin line as a quiet worry passed through her eyes. Oliver noticed and gave a small chuckle, trying to ease her concern. “Hey, don’t worry. Maybe he’s just… caught up with something. He’ll be back soon.” She looked at him deeply. And then, softly, she said, “Don’t lie to me.” Oliver’s smile faded. He looked away slightly, letting out
