I am not nervous, mother…I really am not.” Clara said as she started fidgeting.Adaline chuckled softly and shook her head as she could obviously see through Clara's lies.“Clara, if you are nervous, just tell me okay and I will hold your hand all the way dear."Mother, do I look too fat??

Chapter: CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND SEVENTY EIGHTARSENIO'S POVAt that moment, I kept on running my hands through my hair in frustration because I couldn't believe that Sergio would turn into this unrecognizable person and that too a betrayal."Wait, is that the reason why you locked her up and made her lose our child?? For your revenge??!!” I asked in rage.“I am not a murderer…I had no idea she was pregnant..I only wanted to teach her a lesson.” Sergio said."What exactly have I done to you Sergio??? I took you in as a brother and yet you stab me in the back like this??" I asked.“You have never seen me like a brother Arsenio so cut the fake act!!

Do you know how many missions I have gone to alone just because it was too dangerous for you to come along with?? Do you know h

I asked as it felt like the world around me was on instant stand still.“Sergio…was….emm..the one behind the attack that landed you both in the hospital.” For a minute or two, I kept mute because I was trying so hard to process what I had just heard."Se..Sergio..did what??" I asked.“Arsenio I am so sorry I didn't tell you earlier…after your visit and the things you promised to do for us, my mind couldn't rest because it wasn't fair that your kindness be repaid with evil…if you want to know more about the truth, I'll send you an address where Sergio is currently hiding and you can ask him yourself.” I hung up the call as I gazed around intensely.“What happened??" Elijah asked.“Shut the fuck up!!! I am not done with you Elijah…you are going to pay for what you have done to me.” I said as I stormed out of the room in anger.A few seconds later, I received a text message and on it was the addres

I asked.I so badly wanted to see my Clara as my body arched for her.“Clara is currently in her room and Irene should be in her room too..are you okay?? Do you need something??" My mother asked.“I want to officially ask Clara to marry me." I bit out.“What??" My mother asked with a confused expression on her face.“I am tired of playing this hide and seek games with her…I want Clara to be mine forever but for me to do that, I have to clear any unnecessary obstacles from my way and that includes Elijah.” I said."Arsenio, can't you just make peace with your brother…please.” "He is not my fucking brother!!" “Arsenio, in whatever you do, remember that Elijah is still your brother...I birthed y

The only woman in my life was Monalisa so I don't remember this one.” Arsenio said as it instantly felt like my strength was being drained out of my body.“Arsenio, if this is a joke, please it's too expensive and I don't like it…please stop.” I said.“Mother, I am starving… feels like I haven't eaten anything in ten years.” Arsenio said as he ignored me.I stood there dumbfounded and confused as I had no idea what to do or how to react to the latest development from Arsenio.Arsenio avoided me like a plague in the house and I couldn't help but cry to ma'am Irene and Adaline.I was pregnant and the last thing I needed was the kind of stress

I am what??” I asked as I gazed intensely at the doctor with a confused and shocked expression on my face. "You are three months pregnant ma'am…congratulations.” The doctor said with a smile on her face. I removed my gaze from the doctor and fixed it on ma'am Irene who had the same shocked expression on her face. “Clara?? You are going to be a mother…again.” She said as tears gathered in her eyes. "I will leave you both now…please get some rest ma'am." The doctor said as she left. "Ma'am Irene, the doctor was joking right??” I asked. "No dear…unless you are trying to say you weren't sexually active a few months ago.” Ma'am Irene said as I suddenly remembered the car sex between Arsenio and I. "Shit!!!”I exclaimed as ma'am Irene Chuckled. “I am guessing with that word that came out of your mouth, you were sexually active with Arsenio in the US.” "It was just once.” I said. "Well, just once and we

The three women who cornered me stiffened immediately, their hands falling to their sides as the growl in Kyron’s chest deepened… slow, dangerous, and promising destruction.My heart raced.My wolf pressed against my skin, alert and trembling.He’s angry… very angry…Kyron’s eyes weren’t just glowing…they were blazing. He stopped only a few steps behind me.“On whose authority,” he said, voice low and lethal, “Did you dare lay your hands on her?”The leader of the trio swallowed visibly.“I….I didn’t…Alpha, we were only…”“Silence.”The word snapped through the air like a whip.Even I flinched.He stepped around me, putting himself between me and them, his shoulders broad and tense as he glared at the women with an expression that promised consequences they would remember in th

Chapter: CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND NINETY THREETYLA'S POV The morning after Kyron’s outburst, the pack house felt heavier, buzzing with a strange, whispering energy.At first, I didn’t understand it. The halls looked the same, the same servants rushed about their chores, but their eyes… their eyes wouldn’t meet mine. Some widened when they saw me. Others dropped to the floor, pretending to be busy. The air itself felt charged, like a secret was humming through the walls.It didn’t take long before I realized I was the secret.“She’s the one,” someone whispered behind me near the staircase. “Alpha Kyron said it himself…she’ll be our Luna.”My steps faltered immediately.“That can’t be true,” another voice hissed. “She’s not even marked…she doesn’t belong to any high-ranking family…The Alpha wouldn’t..”“Well, he said it,” the first voice shot back. “Right there in the kitchen yesterday. To the cook! Everyone heard.”I froze halfway up the stairs, gripping the rail as their words sank deep. I should’ve known this would happ

Chapter: CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND NINETY TWOKYRON'S POVThe door clicked shut behind me, but the silence that followed was deafening.For the first time in a long time, I couldn’t breathe right.I stood in my study, fingers still trembling slightly from what had just happened. Her scent was so sweet, earthy, maddening and it lingered in the air, crawling through my veins like wildfire. I could still taste her lips on mine…. Soft, warm, forbidden.“Damn it,” I muttered, dragging a hand down my face as I paced the room. “What the hell was that?”I was Alpha Kyron, the ruthless ruler of the Bloodbane Pack. I didn’t falter and I didn’t lose control but with her, every law I’d ever made for myself burned to ash.I leaned against the edge of my desk, my chest rising and falling heavily.“What are you doing to me, Tyla?” I whispered under my breath. “You weren’t supposed to get under my skin.”My wolf stirred in my mind, his deep voice echoing with calm amusement.“You kissed her.” he said as I clenched my jaw. “I didn’t plan to

Chapter: CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND NINETY ONE TYLA'S POV I froze instantly as the air in the kitchen grew thick …so heavy I could feel every breath burn in my lungs. Slowly, I turned toward the voice.Alpha Kyron stood in the doorway, his tall frame filling every inch of it like a storm blocking out the light. His grey eyes which were cold and piercing locked on the cook, and for a brief moment, I swore the temperature dropped.“Whose authority,” his voice rumbled, deep and dangerous, “gave you the right to speak to her like that?” “I… I didn’t mean any disrespect, Alpha…I was only….”“Silence!!!!!" Kyron snapped. The sound cracked through the kitchen as pots rattled and my heart slammed against my ribs.He didn’t raise his voice..he didn’t have to. His presence was the command and every person in the room froze even the air itself seemed to bow to him.“Alpha, I was only trying to follow the kitchen rules…We don’t allow….” the cook stuttered.“I said silence.” His tone was colder now, which somehow made it worse. “You do

Chapter: CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND NINETY TYLA'S POV“Be my Luna, Tyla." He said as the world instantly stilled."What??” I asked as I gazed intensely into his eyes for the first time since I arrived at his pack.“Be my Luna, Tyla…what is it you don't understand??” He asked."No..I can't." I blurted out without thinking twice about my statement.“You can't???" "With all due respect Alpha, I can't be your Luna.” I said without breaking my gaze from him.There was no way I could be his Luna after the drama with Thane my mate and Aurelius being his second chance mate and now this Alpha that I don't even know his name wants me to also be his Luna…no way.“If you don't be my Luna, I will make your life absolutely miserable Tyla…so miserable that even if you leave my pack, that misery will go along with you.” He threatened as I looked at him with fear and confusion."With all due respect Alpha, what exactly is your deal?? You don't even know me and I don't even know your name…a Luna is supposed to be one's mate…the other half of

I asked with confusion and a look of disbelief.“Yes Alpha.”“Go…I'll be right there.” I said."Yes Alpha.”"This is quite strange…a sudden gathering without your knowledge or approval??” Rico asked with also a confused expression on his face.“Standing here won't get us the answers we need…let's go.” I said as Rico nodded his head and opened the door.We headed to the park hall and when we got there, I was shocked to see all the elders present there including my own mother.“This matter must be pretty serious for the elders to call my Mother too.” I whispered to Rico.“It's possible and it's also possible that it's not but you wouldn't know if you don't find out, Alpha." Rico whispered back as I walked towards the elders.“Greetings to you elders." I said.“Greetings to you too, Alpha Thane." They chorused in response.“What do I owe thi

Chapter: CHAPTER FORTY THREE ALIRA'S POV The silence after Liam’s confession pressed against my chest like a weight and the funniest part of everything was that he wouldn’t even look at me.“I almost committed murder,” he’d said.For a long moment, I simply watched him…his tense shoulders, the tremor he tried to hide in his hands, the shame tightening his jaw. He expected me to panic or to pull away or to even gasp.But something inside me stayed calm.Because I already knew the kind of man Alec was.If Alec was involved in this story, then the truth was already crooked.I took a slow breath. “Liam,” I said quietly, “tell me everything…Properly.”His head lifted slightly, as if he wasn’t expecting that. His eyes searched my face, checking for fear…but there was none.He exhaled shakily and sat down. I followed, keeping a safe distance, but close enough for him to feel listened to.“It was… about three years ago,” he began. “A guy I trusted. A friend, actually. His name was Marco…we invested in something toge

Chapter: CHAPTER FORTY TWOLIAM'S POVThe knock came again this time around and it was sharper, impatient, louder this time.Alira’s eyes widened.“Hide.” I whispered urgently.“Liam….”“Now, Alira!”She hesitated for a heartbeat before rushing into the hallway. I waited until I heard the quiet click of the guest room door before exhaling and forcing myself to look calm.I straightened my shirt, ran a hand through my hair, and opened the door.And there he was.Alec.He looked different…different in a sense that he looked angry, restless, his suit slightly wrinkled like he hadn’t slept all night. Rain clung to his shoulders, and his expression screamed frustration.“Liam,” he said, brushing past me before I could respond. “We need to talk.”I shut the door slowly, watching him pace around my living room. His eyes darted across the place, assessing everything, restless like a man searching for something.“What brings you here at this hour?” I asked coolly.He ran a hand through his hair. “It’s Alira,” he sa

Chapter: CHAPTER FORTY ONEALIRA'S POV The soft hum of the rain was the first thing I heard when I woke up.It wasn’t violent anymore, just quiet, steady, like the world was trying to wash away what happened last night.But nothing could.Not the storm, not the sunrise, not even time.I blinked, staring at the ceiling for a few seconds before I dared to move. My body felt heavy, like every nerve remembered what it shouldn’t.The faint scent of Liam lingered in the air soap, cedar, and something darker.My fingers clenched the sheet.The images from last night came rushing back in flashes…the rain, his hands, the way he said my name like it was both a question and a promise.And then his words…“That’s the problem, Alira. I do.”My heart ached just remembering it.I sat up slowly.The towel he had wrapped around me lay crumpled on the floor. My dress was still damp… hung neatly on the chair across the room. Liam must have done that…He always did things quietly, like he didn’t want to admit he cared.I looked

Chapter: CHAPTER FORTY LIAM'S POV The sound of knocking pulled me out of my thoughts.At first, I ignored it, thinking maybe it was the rain hitting the door but then it came again soft, desperate, uneven.It was late, and after everything with Betsy, the last thing I wanted was another disturbance. I moved toward the door, half-expecting to see her again.But when I opened it, my breath caught.There she was.Alira.Standing in the pouring rain, her hair plastered to her face, her dress soaked through, clinging to her body like a second skin. Her eyes… God, those eyes…they were full of something I couldn’t read. “Alira?” I whispered, disbelief heavy in my voice.She didn’t speak at first.She just stood there, breathing hard, rain running down her cheeks like tears.“Why are you…” I started, but stopped. Without thinking, I reached out and grabbed her hand, pulling her inside.The moment her cold fingers touched mine, my pulse jumped.She shivered as I shut the door behind her. Water dripped from her

Chapter: CHAPTER THIRTY NINEALIRA'S POV Since the moment Alec said he was going to borrow some money for our wedding, I knew something didn’t add up about him.For weeks, I’d tried to ignore the feeling, to believe that maybe my mind was just overthinking things again but deep down, I knew the truth… I’d been with Alec once before in another life…. I’d seen how good he was at pretending.And now, it felt like history was repeating itself.He claimed to be struggling… said his company was running low on funds, that he needed some help until things picked up again but the man I knew from before wasn’t the kind to go broke. He was greedy, yes, manipulative, yes, but never poor.In my last life, I didn’t see it until it was too late.He had accounts, properties, and investments I didn’t even know existed all hidden behind fake names and other people’s hands.I had died not realizing how much he had stolen from me.Not this time.This time, I was going to find out everything.That morning, I sat in my office, lapto

Chapter: CHAPTER THIRTY EIGHT LIAM'S POVI wanted her and I wanted Alira so badly that it hurt.The moment she left, silence filled the house.It wasn’t just quiet but it was haunting. Her scent still lingered in the air, soft and warm, like vanilla mixed with danger. I could still taste her on my lips, the ghost of that kiss that refused to fade.I ran a hand through my hair, pacing back and forth in the living room.“What the hell did you just do, Liam?” I muttered to myself.That kiss wasn’t planned. It wasn’t supposed to happen but when her eyes looked into mine, it was full of unspoken words and I lost control. Every wall I built crumbled and every reason I had to stay away from her disappeared.Now she was gone, and I was standing here, burning from the inside out.I tried to distract myself as I picked up a glass, poured some whiskey, and took a long sip but it didn’t help. I could still feel her breath against my neck and my pulse refused to calm. My body wanted her but my mind screamed that I shoul
