Chapter: Chapter 15
As soon as Athena was certain she had escaped Diana’s watchful glare, a soft sigh escaped her lips. She paused on the hallway, her annoyance reignited by the guards trailing closely behind her.For a second, she just wanted her former freedom, but the men wouldn’t budge. Just as she turned to make a warning, Travon appeared from the corner, his expression neutral. “That was a powerful speech, Athena.” He said, his voice soft and calm.“Thank you.” She nodded, unsure of what to do, his scent kept messing with her head. There was a sudden shift in her tone as she turned to him and said, “Please tell your men to stand down, I’ve managed on my own for the past five years, and I can very much survive on my own right now.” With that, she stormed away.Travon quickly gestured for his men to stand down as he watched her in awe as she left.She return to her room, pacing back and forth as her mind thought of the next line of action. “What next?” She thought, she had to admit that Lucy was right

The council door swung open, and Aria and her father stepped inside, dismayed to find they were much too late. The council members were already bowing to Travon and Athena, chanting; "The goddess save the Alpha, The goddess save the Luna." At the same time, Kaius noticed the hurt in Aria's eyes, his inner wolf howled in pain, but he couldn't do anything than look away. "I object!" William's voice suddenly rang throughout the room, causing a collective gasp as all eyes turned to him. "This is against our customs." He continued, his eyes set on Travon, as he walked through the rows of elders. Philppa's subtly gave him a look, begging him to stop, but William looked away, damning the consequences of his action. "Athena has not completed the thirty days ritual and yet, here she is, being reinstated as the Luna." He paused, turning to the elders, "Elders, how can you all blindly agree to this, have we quickly forgotten our customs? How can we simply accept her return like this

Athena stared at Travon’s face, her expression unreadable. Her mind reeled from the fact that she could have been dead if not for his intervention. Slowly, she stepped away from him, despite his heroic save, she still considered him an enemy--he had hurt her badly, and one daring act didn’t erase the pain. Sensing her hesistance, Travon maintained his distance, his face etched with pain. With a small sigh, he told her, “My men will escort you back to your quarters, and keep watch till dawn, while I get to the bottom of this.” Athena slowly nodded, eager to escape his presence. Quietly, she bowed her head to show her gratitude, her eyes avoiding his. Then swiftly, she turned on her heels and walked away with the guards hovering closely around her. Travon’s eyes lingered on her retreating figure, his expression filled with a mixture of regret and sadness. His lips parted as if to call her, but he remained silent, respecting her boundaries. Back at her quarters in her bedroom, Athe

"In two days, Athena will finally attain visitation rights," the pack doctor began, his tone cold and measured. "Our faction is growing restless. We can't just sit idly by, cowering like frightened dogs. We must do something." He paused, his gaze locked on William and Aria. William leaned back in his chair with a calculating glint in his eye. "You've made some valid points, Doc," he said, his voice dripping with condescension. Aria nodded in agreement, her expression smug. "But Aria and I have already discussed this," William continued. "We'll stick with our original plan." The doctor's eyebrows shot up, curiosity etched on his face. "You mean, poisoning?" he asked, his voice laced with skepticism. William smirked. "Yes," he replied coolly, as if he were discussing the weather. The doctor scoffed, his expression surprised. "Have you forgotten she's currently under tight security?" he asked, his voice rising. William's smile was icy. "That's exactly why it's the perfect plan,"

Travon's room was thick with tension as Kaius paced, his eyes narrowed in concern. "What exactly were you thinking?" he asked, his voice laced with frustration. Travon sighed, rubbing his temples. "I wasn't thinking, Kaius. I just couldn't resist the mate bond. You wouldn't understand since you haven't experienced it." His eyes dropped. Kaius scoffed, "Trust me, brother, I understand much more deeply than you can imagine." A hint of pain flickered in his eyes, but he quickly masked it. Travon's gaze snapped up, curiosity sparking. "What do you mean?" Kaius waved his hand dismissively. "Later. For now, what's your plan?" Travon's jaw clenched. "We wait. The elders say Athena earns visitation rights after seven days. In the meantime, put a trusted maid to watch and report back to you. I don't trust those stuck-up elders." His lip curled in disgust. "And Aria? What about her?" Kaius asked, his tone concerned. Travon shifted uncomfortably. "I've never seen Aria as anythi

Chapter: Chapter 10
Travon sat in the meeting room, surrounded with his mother and the elders, making deliberations on how to handle Athena’s return. However, his mind wandered, clouded with thoughts of Athena. It had been two days since she interrupted his marriage ceremony, but he couldn’t shake off her scent, which had seemingly imprinted itself on his mind. He was growing restless, wanting to see her, wanting answers to his numerous questions, wanting to know how and why. Without another thought, he slammed his hands against the table, sending a wave of silence across the room. He stood up, his eyes fixed on the door, and stormed out. The Sacred Quarters, situated on the estate grounds, served as both a confinement zone and a purification quarters. Travon took hasty strides, his men hurrying behind him, until they reached the quarters, heavily guarded by Epsilons and female elders who catered to Athena's needs around the clock. The elders quickly reinforced their guard by standing in front of the

My chest pounded excitedly as I pulled him closer, ignoring the “this is your boss” warning in my head. I tugged at his tie, my fingers itching to undo his buttons. His hands shifted the lacy underwear, his fingers sliding to reach my entrance. When they slid in, I let out a loud gasp. “Shh, Eve. You're not allowed to scream.” Eve Keller has always lived quietly, overlooked, and inexperienced. Her only escape is the voice she obeys in secret: Dom Daddy, the mysterious man whose erotic audios pull desires from her she’s never dared to explore. But on her first day at Kingston Corp, she hears that same commanding voice… from her new boss, Dominic Kingston. Cold. Ruthless. Every word, every glance, pulls her closer to a darkness she’s only dreamed of. When she realizes the voice she secretly worships belongs to him, Eve’s world tips. Dominic sees everything, her secret, her cravings, her limits, and he begins a game of control that is as thrilling as it is dangerous. Stolen touches, whispered commands, forbidden tension. Eve is drawn to him, terrified by him, and utterly captivated. Every time she resists, questions, or defies him, Dominic’s obsession only grows. Add in Alex, her kind and protective colleague, a jealous rival, and a family determined to control everything, and Eve finds herself caught between safety and temptation, desire and power. One wrong choice could unravel her, and yet…every defiance pulls her deeper into a world of obsession, submission, and passion she never imagined.

Chapter: 055: The Night We Kissed
-Eve-It was foolish to think that running a mile after years of physical inactivity would make me feel better. I only felt worse.I stopped at a bench at a park to catch my breath, but legs wobbled like jelly.Sal crossed the line. She fucking did. I chanted in my mind.I pulled out my phone and searched on Siena Coleman. The article popped up, her name published as the writer.Unconscious Siena Suffers Seizure After Intruder Appears In Hospital Room.By Sally Turner.The article talked about the seizure and contained an account of an eye-witness who saw the intruder in scrubs. Me.“Fuck you, Sal.” I spat, blinking rapidly to fight back tears.At the same time, her words lingered. She was kind of right. I was the one standing in the way of finding my sister. I had let doubt and fear creep even though I badly wanted to find her.Without thinking, my fingers thumbed on one of my social media app. My profile was empty, just my username and a profile picture of me from college graduation

-Sal-Three days later.“…I’m so glad we finally got to catch up, it’s been a hectic week.” Eve said, attempting to do one of those her pancake flips that always failed.“Me too.” I grinned. “Me too. So tell me more about Alex. And I mean the dets. All of it.”“There’s really nothing to tell.” She shrugged.I smirked. “Are you saying you two haven’t had sex?”She turned sharply, chuckling nervously like she always did when she was uncomfortable with something.“Alex and I have been busy all week, we’ve barely had time for ourselves.”“So no sex?” I said firmly.She squirmed, fiddled with her fingers, and then returned to the cooker.I chuckled underneath my breath. Oh, how I enjoyed doing this.“My mom is doing much better now. The doctors hope she can come home soon. I’ve been looking into rehab. She wants to get into a sobriety program.”“Well, it’s a good thing.”She nodded. “Yes….And we’ve been speaking. We’re trying to work out our differences. It’s been great.”“Did you two talk

-Eve-I hated that Sal was right. I hated the idea that Siena could be in greater danger and nobody knew. Even worse, I hated that Guilt clawed tightly in my chest.“Eve!” Monica’s harsh voice rang through my ears, snapping me back to my cubicle.“I have a quick assignment for you,” she began with a grin. “I need you head over to the resource room and arrange all the marketing folders in alphabetical order.”I blinked at her, confused. Was this punishment for something I didn’t remember? I wondered.She continued. “While you’re at it, I need the 2002, 2004, 2006, and 2010, marketing reports for Kluxe. Make sure they’re on my table before noon—”“Can’t someone handle it? I mean, Mr. Mayer already assigned me to the PR team handling Lure’s—”“Unfortunately, Alex isn’t on seat, and that leaves me,” she pointed to her chest, “in charge. Plus, Lure will survive with or without your help, Keller.”I let out a small sigh. “Sorting files in alphabetical order doesn’t seem much like a matter o

-Sal-“…I heard rumors of how she tried to kill herself, but my sources say she ran out of oxygen…I’m just waiting for a verification.” That was Susan from the opposite cubicle.I didn’t like Susan. For one, she was my self-acclaimed rival in this office.Secondly, I knew she was being loud on purpose so she could rub it in my face.She was my competition in the Siena Coleman story.Siena Coleman.That’s all everyone could talk about in this damn office.For the past three days, her name was the only thing I could think of.Damn, I had held Eve’s scoop in for three days, and fuck! It was killing me.An intruder. An earring? In scoop terms, I called it pure gold.“Sally.” Claire’s voice and knuckles tapping on my desk snapped me back to the present.“Hey, what’s up?” She frowned, “You said you had a source, got me all excited, and then leave me nothing. Why haven’t heard shit from you since?”“Shit.”I sat up in my chair and blinked.I made a fucking promise, that’s what.I cleared my

-Dominic-I had never heard my mother curse, not when there were rumors of my father’s affairs. Not when tabloids circled our family like vultures.So in the afternoon, when I heard her spit those words with disdain. I knew he’d crossed the line. I knew she’d finally break.It was evening when I reached the estate. The house felt too quiet, I knew my father would be nowhere near here after whatever he had done.I quickly went upstairs to her bedroom where the staff said she’d be, but she wasn’t. I called out to her thrice, without a response.Finally, I found her in his study.She was seating behind his desk, hands clasped in front of her.I’d never seen her like this.For a moment, I just stared. She didn’t shake, she just sat.When I finally took a seat, her voice cut in, cold and sharp.“Did he send you?” Her eyes snapped in my direction, there was no softness in them, just rage.“No.” I shook my head, confused.“Good.” She said before stifling a cold laugh.What could he have done

Chapter: 050: The Scoop
-Eve-I barely had any chance to see Alex today.He’d been out all day, working at another branch, I think. Though, he’d laugh at me if he knew I had been counting minutes.Either way, I felt bad that I had to bail on him, but the hospital asked me to come see my mom in the evening. I hated it. It felt like suddenly, my entire life revolved around her.When I got to the private wing, a nurse had to ID me before letting me in, which was weird because it had never happened before.I took a turn, barely into the wing where I bumped right into something— no someone, hard. The familiar scent hit me first, before a pair of strong hands reached me, pulling upright.Dominic.I freed myself from his grip, instinctively taking a step away from him.“You should learn to watch where you’re going.” He said, flat. Cold.“Sorry,” I mumbled, walking off as fast as I could.I didn’t realize I was holding in my breath until I reached my mother’s room, slumped against the door and heaved a huge sigh.Th
