Chapter: A Beautiful GiftMayaThe door burst open without warning.Freya angrily stormed into my room. The handle slammed against the wall with a loud thud, making me pause mid-scroll on my phone.My eyes lifted slowly.She stood in the middle of my room like she owned the space, her chest rising and falling sharply, her arms crossed tightly against her chest. Her face was twisted into an expression of pure irritation—no, not just irritation… frustration and bitterness.“I hate her,” she snapped immediately.“I hate that Lyra girl so much. How can she be laughing and smiling after everything she did to me?” Her voice rose slightly, trembling with anger. “How can she be happy when I feel so miserable?”For a moment, I said nothing. My thumb hovered over my phone screen before I slowly lowered it onto the bed beside me and really looked at her.Freya was breathing hard, her eyes sharp and almost wild with emotion. There was something unstable in the way she stood—like she had been holding all of this in and fin

Chapter: The Upcoming CelebrationLyraThe kitchen was unusually busy this afternoon.Large baskets of vegetables occupied nearly every corner, while the servants moved in and out carrying sacks of grain and spices. The entire pack was preparing for the Red Full Moon celebration in just a few days' time, and the excitement could practically be felt in the air.I sat beside Gwen on a stool, helping her sort vegetables into separate baskets.At least... I was supposed to be helping.The truth was, I had spent more time watching everyone bustle around than actually helping.This would be my first Red Full Moon celebration in Stormfang Pack. The thought alone filled me with curiosity."Gwen? How is the Red Full Moon celebration celebrated here in the pack? This will actually be my first time experiencing it here."I waited for an answer, but nothing came. I turned my head toward her and noticed that Gwen wasn't paying attention to me at all.Her fingers absentmindedly plucked at the vegetables in her hands in a completely

Chapter: It's All OverHarryThe room suddenly felt smaller.No.No.No.If Caleb was here… then…A creaking sound interrupted my thoughts. My gaze snapped toward the large rocking chair facing the window.The chair slowly turned, and my heart nearly stopped.There he was… Ronan… sitting comfortably in the chair, watching me with the same cold eyes and calm expression.He… he had been sitting there all along?A small smile touched his lips.“It’s been such a long time, Harry.”My entire body locked up. I couldn’t move. Couldn’t breathe. Couldn’t think.Ronan was here.For a second, my mind refused to accept it. Then survival instinct immediately took over.My hand went straight to my cross bag.I didn’t think. I just acted.My fingers closed around the gun I had kept hidden inside. In one smooth motion, I pulled it out and aimed it at him without hesitati

Chapter: The Trap SpringsHarryI walked through the apartment door behind Rocky.The moment both of us stepped inside, the door slammed shut behind us with a heavy metallic click.My instincts immediately sharpened.Without thinking, my hand moved to the strap of the cross bag hanging across my shoulder. My fingers curled around it tightly as my eyes swept across the room.The interior wasn't exactly what I had expected.The outside of the apartment had looked abandoned, but the inside was different. It looked very old, but clean.The cream-colored walls showed cracks in some places, but someone had clearly taken the time to maintain them.A large antique clock hung against one wall, and several old paintings decorated the room.Near the far end stood a massive rocking chair that sat directly facing a large window, but the chair's back was turned toward us.I turned toward Rocky."Where's the client?"Rocky offered an awkward smile."Relax," Rocky said quickly. "Exercise some patience. He's here."Just then,

Chapter: The Last DealHarryI looked to my left, then my right.The alley was empty. Dead quiet. Only the weak light from a flickering street light above me and the distant sound of traffic far away.Still… I didn’t move.My hand stayed on the edge of my hood as I pulled it lower over my face, hiding as much of my face as I could.Too many eyes. Too many ears.I exhaled slowly, then finally stepped out of the alley. Across the road, a black vehicle with black tinted windows waited with its engine running.I crossed quickly, head down, shoulders tight, every step felt like a risk.When I reached the car, I didn’t waste time. I pulled the passenger door open and slipped inside fast, shutting it behind me. The moment I was inside, I leaned back and let out a heavy breath.The car started moving, that was when I finally pulled the hood off my head and ran a hand through my hair. That anger and burning, choking frustration suddenly hit me again.“What the fuck is wrong with everything?!” I snapped angrily. “I c

Chapter: AdmittanceLyraI gasped.The moment I stepped through the hallway behind Kael and emerged into the space beyond, it felt as if I had walked into another world entirely."What in the world..."My feet stopped moving.I simply stood there and stared.The place before me looked nothing like the building we had just entered.It was enormous.A living, breathing paradise.Towering trees stretched toward the sky, their branches weaving together overhead like a natural canopy. Sunlight filtered through the leaves in golden beams, dancing across the ground below.Monkeys swung effortlessly from branch to branch above us.One leaped through the air and landed on another tree, causing a shower of leaves to flutter down.Another sat comfortably on a thick branch, munching on fruit while watching the world below.My gaze drifted farther, and I saw a small lake on one side of the path. Its surface was covered with beautiful floating plants and broad green leaves.Clusters of purple water hyacinths bloomed a

Chapter: The Choice Of My HeartAmber“Of what use are you to the family, Amber?!” Father began yelling angrily. “Tell me! What use? You can’t just do one single thing right!”I sat in front of my parents like a criminal waiting for judgment. Their eyes were cold… disappointed… almost disgusted, as if I were some prodigal child who had wasted their fortune and shamed the entire family. A part of me had always feared this moment, but another part; tired, aching, exhausted, had long expected it.“The Eurasian project,” he continued loudly. “Our company's golden chance was right there in front of you! Served to you on a platter of gold! All you had to do was make one sacrifice! Just one! Yet you let it slip away!”I clenched my fists so tightly my nails dug into my palms. The words I wanted to spit back were burning the back of my throat, but I forced myself to swallow them.He continued pacing, waving his hands in frustration.“As the heiress to this prestigious company, you can’t even complete a simple task?!

Chapter: FarewellColeI barely even waited for the car to stop properly before I jumped out and sprinted toward the front door with Xavier right behind me.The moment I burst through the door, the scene in my living room froze me in place.Skylar was seated on the couch, Ingrid beside her, with one arm around her shoulders as if protecting her.And Luciana sat on the opposite couch.Her eyes… God, I had never seen eyes look so empty. Soulless. Like whatever held her together had died with Amelia.My feet quickly moved straight to Skylar’s side.I knelt in front of her, took her hand immediately in both of mine, my eyes running over her face, her arms, her belly, her legs—everywhere.“Are you okay?” I asked quickly. “Did she do anything to you? Did she threaten you? Are you hurt?”Skylar shook her head gently. “I’m fine.”I let out a deep breath, one I didn’t realize I’d been holding until now. As long as she was okay, I could handle anything else.Then I turned to Luciana.“What are you doing in my ho

Chapter: When the Night Finally BreaksColeI kept pacing back and forth along the edge of the landing pad. My eyes kept drifting to the sky, scanning for the helicopter’s lights.It was almost dawn, and every few seconds I checked my watch. The night had stretched longer than any I had lived through. Too much had happened too fast; death, rescue missions, calls to lawyers, threats, arrests, so many things happening at once.But in all of it, the thing weighing on my chest the most at this moment was Xavier.I dragged a hand through my hair and exhaled for what felt like the hundredth time.Finally, I heard the distant thump of rotating blades.I froze in place, eyes locked on the helicopter descending toward the pad.And Xavier stepped out.I exhaled in relief when I finally saw him. He looked exhausted; drained, stiff, dirt smudged on his face, but he was alive… and that was all that mattered.I walked toward him while he did the same, hugging tightly like two brothers who had spent the whole night fighting different bat

Chapter: The Faces Behind the MasksXavier A few hours later… I heard the loud sirens echoing off every corner of the house. I stood outside the house — the same house where only hours ago, I had been initiated as a “new brother,” surrounded by men who had sworn loyalty while secretly plotting to kill me. Police officers rushed in and out, dragging men one after another in handcuffs. Or brothers, as they loved to call themselves. I watched them all carefully. Every face. Every reaction. Every twitch. These were the men who had operated in shadows for decades. These were the ones who had caused destruction while hiding behind donations, foundations, titles, and fake smiles. And then one of them appeared. Mr. Peterson. Minister of National Infrastructure Development — a man respected for “reviving the country’s rail and road systems.” He stepped out slowly, escorted by two officers. His hands were cuffed, but he carried himself proudly. His suit was still neat, barely wrinkled, his silver hair perfectly in place.

Chapter: The Night Masks CrackedXavierEarlier that same day…“That's quite impressive, Mr. Xavier,” Kane praised, tapping rapidly on his keyboard. The screen in front of him was flooded with charts, stock dips, and coded reports.I forced a smile. “Thanks.”But the moment he lowered his head, my smile faded.Nothing here was what I expected. Nothing.The brotherhood wasn’t just a wealthy network of powerful men with secret wealth and connections. No—this place was a den layered with lies, shadows, and darkness.After they had taken me away in that helicopter, they brought me into this hidden estate, more like a fortress, and introduced me to a man called Mr. White.He was the one who told me everything. He was the one who “oriented” me.Or… brainwashed me, I guess they assumed.I had walked in thinking I understood the brotherhood’s operations: illegal trades, manipulations, political influence, hidden hands guiding public decisions.Standard underground power games.But the truth?The truth was filthier.

Chapter: The Final ClashColeI had never run so fast in my life.The moment I got to the parking lot, I froze.Lorenzo gripped Amelia with one arm while holding a gun to her neck with the other.In front of them, Officer Rodriguez and the rest of the NYPD had their guns raised, forming a half-circle.“LORENZO! DROP THE GUN!” Rodriguez shouted.When Marcus messaged me about Amelia being auctioned, I didn’t even hesitate to call Rodriguez immediately and give him every detail I had before leaving my house with my entire security team.Everything we had done since Austria had led to this point. We had gotten information from Austria that Lorenzo was bringing Amelia to New York, and had searched the entire city, but we kept finding nothing. Lorenzo had been too careful. Officer Rodriguez even had to stay in New York the whole time, refusing to go home or switch cases until Amelia was found.Thank goodness Marcus had sent that text tonight.But now… the situation looked nothing like something we could control.“A

Chapter: Where I BelongREGINA I made my way to Marcy’s room shortly after seeing Lionel. She looked so small lying there, her face pale but serene. Her hands rested on her swollen belly protectively, even in her sleep. My heart clenched at the sight of her. The sister I had thought I’d lost forever was here again, and despite everything we had endured, there was hope. Then I thought of the tragedy that had befallen her—of Silas and everything else. Victor had indeed taken more than we could imagine. “Marcy,” I whispered as I approached her bed. Her eyes fluttered open, groggy but quickly filling with recognition. “Regina?” she murmured, her voice hoarse. I nodded, tears already welling up. “It’s me.” She eased into a smile. “I just knew you could do it. I just knew you could. You’ve always been just too strong.” I laughed as I planted a kiss on her forehead. “How’s the b

Chapter: A New Dawn
LIONEL The first thing I noticed was the sterile smell of antiseptic. My body felt heavy, but the softness of the hospital bed was comforting. Slowly, I blinked my eyes open. Regina’s face came into focus. Her hair was slightly disheveled, dark circles shadowed her eyes, but she was the most beautiful sight I’d ever seen. Her hand rested on mine, her touch grounding me. “Lionel,” she whispered, her voice filled with relief and tenderness. Tears welled up in her eyes as she leaned closer. “You’re awake.” I managed a weak smile. “Hey…” Before I could say more, Grandpa appeared by her side, his face a mixture of concern and relief. Ryker and Gwen were there too, their expressions lighter than I’d seen in days. “You gave us quite the scare, kid,” Grandpa said, his gruff tone unable to mask the emotion in his voice. “Victor?” I rasped, the memories of the fight f

Chapter: ShowdownREGINA “No,” I whispered, cradling Lionel closer. His breathing was shallow, his usually vibrant eyes clouded with pain. Victor stood a few paces away, lowering his weapon with a chilling casualness. “You should've just cooperated with the plan, Regina.” He chuckled disdainfully. “You and that pathetic excuse of an alpha.” “Don’t you dare!” Marcy’s voice cut through the tension, and I turned just in time to see her charging at Victor. “Marcy, no!” I screamed, but it was too late. Victor swatted her away like she was nothing, sending her flying into the side of the truck. She hit the metal with a sickening thud, collapsing in a heap. My mouth dropped open, my scream coming uncontrollably. “Stay down, girl,” Victor sneered, turning his attention back to me. I froze, my arms tightening protectively around Lionel. Every instinct screamed at me to fight, but my b

Chapter: Let’s End ThisREGINA I and Marcy had been together in the room, waiting, when we heard the sounds of the war going on outside the building. Lionel was here. At first, a feeling of joy and assurance rushed to me, but almost immediately, a certain panic rushed through me when we had waited for quite long enough and Lionel was yet to show up. “Are you sure he’s still okay?” Marcy asked, the fear in her voice evident. “He is okay.” I replied with all certainty. “Nothing could happen to Lionel!” Then the men suddenly stormed in, barking orders. Marcy and I rose hastily and followed the men down the corridors, all the way to the back of the warehouse. Soon, we were out in the dark and there was nothing but the dim lights of the moon to guide us through. I could still hear the faint buzz of war on the other far end of the building. Axel led the group of Victor’s men, his expression unreadable, but

Chapter: Final ConfrontationLIONEL His taunting words drove me mad, but I refused to give him the satisfaction of seeing me fall apart. I clenched my jaw, focusing on my breathing as I adjusted my stance, preparing for the next round. But Victor wasn’t done. He was playing with me, like a predator toying with its prey. He danced just out of reach, circling me, his every movement calculated, precise. “You know, Lionel,” he began. “I’ve always admired your strength. But strength doesn’t mean anything when it’s built on lies. Your so-called ‘perfect love’ with Regina? It’s a joke. You’re both weak, just like your parents were. Too sentimental. Too tied down by your pathetic little bond.” His words struck harder than any blow he could throw, reminding me of all the mistakes I’d made, of all the things I’d failed to protect. The past kept clawing at me, refusing to let go. I roared in fury, charging toward him once more, but this time, I cou

Chapter: AmbushLIONEL All I needed was a location and just that, Arturo had provided. Another site, another holding of Victor’s. Even if it meant going to a hundred locations this same night, as long as I was not dead, I was going to set my eyes on Regina and there was nothing that could be done to change that. As we drew closer to the warehouse where Regina was supposedly held, we knew better than to just storm our way in. We needed to maintain a low profile. The warehouse loomed ahead, its corrugated metal walls dull and rusted under the dim glow of the moonlight. A faint chill ran down my spine as I scanned the perimeter. This was the place. I could feel it in my gut. Regina was inside, and I wasn’t leaving without her. Ryker crouched beside me, his face set in grim determination. Arturo and his men from the Eric Circle pack fanned out behind us, their movements silent and purposeful. Each of them carried
