Chapter: CHAPTER FIFTY THREEALIRA'S POV I stared at Betsy for a long moment after her words settled into the room.Alec planned it.If she thought those words would shock me, break me, or make me crumble, then she clearly didn’t know me at all.Because I could see it clearly now….this wasn’t guilt. This was survival…Betsy was cornered, and like the coward she was, she was pushing the blame away from herself.So I did what I had learned to do best.I pretended.“What?” I whispered, my voice shaking just enough. “What do you mean… he planned it?”Betsy’s eyes widened slightly. She hadn’t expected that question. She shifted on the couch, pulling the blanket tighter around herself like a shield.“I heard him arguing on the phone,” she said quickly. “He was shouting at someone about money and plans going wrong..I didn’t understand it at first, but after the kidnapping… it made sense.”I pressed a hand to my chest as if I was struggling to breathe….I had never seen anyone as stupid and dense as my Betsy before.

Chapter: CHAPTER FIFTY TWOALIRA'S POV The room went completely silent after Betsy’s words.“If you know what’s best for you, Alec, you better not tell Alira the reason I was at your house.”I didn’t move.I didn’t speak.I simply stared at Alec.His face drained of every last bit of color. His lips trembled slightly, his injured eye twitching as if it was reacting to his fear instead of pain.On the phone, Betsy was breathing hard, clearly unaware that she had just sealed her own fate.I tilted my head slowly, my fingers tightening around the edge of the table.“Reason?” I repeated softly.Alec swallowed. “Alira, she didn’t mean it like that…”I raised a hand, stopping him instantly.“Shhh,” I said calmly. “Let her talk.”I leaned closer to the phone and spoke sweetly, almost gently.“Betsy,” I said. “I’m right here.”There was a pause.Then silence.And then….panic.“Alira?” she said slowly. “You… you’re with him?”“Yes,” I replied. “I am.”A sharp inhale came through the speaker.“You’re… you’re at Ale

Chapter: CHAPTER FIFTY ONEALIRA'S POV When the call ended, I sat very still on my couch, my phone resting loosely in my hand.Betsy, Taken alongside Alec.If the old Alira had heard this, she would have panicked….. She would have cried…She would have rushed to the police or begged someone for help.But this Alira?This Alira smiled.Slowly.My plans were gradually falling into place and Betsy just happened to fall into one of them.Deep inside me, something dark stirred something that had been buried under years of pain, humiliation, and betrayal. Betsy had always stood beside Alec while he destroyed me…She had smiled while stabbing me in the back and she had enjoyed my suffering in my previous life and even up until this current moment, She still has no good intention towards me.Now, she was scared.Now, she was powerless.I stood up and walked to the window, staring into the night. My heart was beating fast, not from fear but from excitement.I picked up my phone and dialed the kidnapper’s number.He ans

Chapter: CHAPTER FIFTY ALIRA'S POV I ran back outside as quietly as I could, my heart beating like a drum in my ears. After hearing what Alec just said, I didn’t want him to know I had been standing there, listening, hearing the truth.I reached the front door and quickly stepped outside. I gently closed the door behind me, then took two steps backward and pretended I had just arrived. I fixed my face into the perfect mask…soft, innocent, harmless. Then I raised my hand and knocked politely.My heart still ached, but my expression was calm.Alec opened the door almost immediately, His eyes widened in surprise.“Alira? You… you’re here?” he asked.I forced a small smile. “Yes…Can I come in?”He stepped aside. The moment I walked in, he closed the door behind me and gently held my arm, like he was trying to reassure me.“What’s wrong? Are you okay?”Time to act.I took a slow breath and let my eyes water a little. “I actually came to thank you,” I said softly. “For saving me that day… when we were kid

The three men outside looked impatient, angry, and dangerous.“Get out!” one of them barked again.Alec looked at me with panic in his eyes.“Alira… just follow what they say…Don’t argue.”We both stepped out of the car slowly. The cold wind brushed my face, but the fear inside me was hotter than fire.Before we could ask any questions, one of the men grabbed Alec by the collar and another wrapped his arm around my waist, throwing me toward the van.“Let go of her!” Alec yelled.He tried to move, but a gun was shoved into his chest.“Shut up.” the kidnapper growled.Within seconds, they pushed the both of us into the back of the van and slammed the door shut. The vehicle started moving immediately, fast and rough, like they were trying to make sure we couldn’t keep track of the directio

I only stated the truth.”“You can’t talk to her like that!” Betsy tried a

"T...T...Tyla."

Chapter: CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND NINETY NINETYLA'S POV The pack house transformed overnight.Where once the halls had felt cold and watchful, now they buzzed with forced excitement, frantic movement, and a tension so thick it pressed against my skin.Servants hurried past me with bolts of white fabric and silver-threaded cloaks. Warriors stood at attention longer than usual even though the air smelled,different burning sage, crushed moonflowers, and anxiety.Preparations for the Luna ceremony had begun.And I was at the center of it.I stood before the tall mirror in my room while two attendants hovered behind me, whispering in hushed tones as they brushed my hair. My reflection stared back at me, unfamiliar. My face looked calm, but my eyes betrayed me…they were wide, uncertain, shadowed by thoughts I couldn’t silence.Was I really doing this?Every stroke of the brush felt like another step toward something I couldn’t undo.My wolf paced restlessly inside me, claws scraping against my ribs.This feels wrong… and right… an

He had nothing to offer…no opinion and no guidance because as far as he was concerned… our mate no longer existed.For him, for both of us, Tyla was dead or missing but at this point, dead had the upper hand.And you cannot replace the dead.Yet the pack needed a Luna and I, Alpha or not, was drowning.I found myself standing outside my mother’s door without even remembering the walk.

My pulse raced so wildly I could feel it in my throat. His eyes, storm-dark and burning never left my face.He stood too close, too tall and too powerful.And far too overwhelming.I swallowed hard, suddenly painfully aware of how small the room felt… or maybe it was just how massive his presence was.“Kyron,” I whispered, forcing myself to meet his gaze, “What did you just say Kyr…”He cut me off, stepping closer, caging me against the wall with one hand beside my head.“You want a child so desperately,” he growled, voice dropping to a low, deadly whisper, “That you believed lies about being pregnant… with another male’s pup.”Heat burned my cheeks.Embarrassment, shame, confusion and everything twisted violently inside.“I didn't lie, Kyron…I was pregnant!!!

Water droplets slid down his chest, tracing lines I shouldn’t have been noticing.
