Nicholas’s POV:

My entire focus narrowed to Stephanie, as if the rest of the world had dimmed into nothing but background noise. The room, my brothers, even the steady rhythm of my own breathing—none of it mattered. All I wanted, all I needed, was for her to say something that would undo this moment. Something that would prove the Argento brothers were lying. That this wasn’t real. That she wasn’t really choosing them.

Anything but this.

“Ares is right,” she said, and just like that, the fragil

    Stephanie's POV:The car rolled to a gentle stop in front of the mansion.For a moment, no one moved.Then Ares stepped out first.He walked around the car with measured steps before opening the door on my side. One hand rested on the edge of the door while the other was extended toward me, silently offering his assistance.His eyes met mine."You've arrived safely, Princess."Ignoring the title, I placed my hand lightly in his.His grip was firm but gentle as he helped me out of the car.The moment both of my feet touched the ground—Every person standing on the staircase bowed.It happened so suddenly that I froze.Not one or two people. Every single one of them.The maids. The butlers.The guards.Even the gardeners working farther away paused to lower their heads respectfully."..."I blinked.Surely...They couldn't be bowing to me.I instinctively stepped aside, assuming they were greeting the Argento triplets instead.After all, this was their home. They were the Alphas. It on

    Stephanie's POV:Aasher sat behind the wheel, his hands resting confidently on the steering wheel as the car glided smoothly along the quiet road. Beside him in the passenger seat was Aagney, who stared out through the windshield with his usual calm expression. Ares sat beside me in the back seat, leaving enough space between us to keep things comfortable, yet somehow I was painfully aware of his presence.The ride was silent.Not the peaceful kind of silence that settled between people who enjoyed each other's company, but the heavy silence that followed an emotional storm.I rested my head lightly against the cool window, my eyes following the blur of towering trees, quiet streets, and passing houses. The scenery changed every few seconds, but my mind refused to move on.Their faces were still etched into my memory.Tyler.The pain in his eyes had been impossible to ignore.He had looked at me as though I had ripped his heart out with my bare hands.Then there was Nicholas.His brea

The room, my brothers, even the steady rhythm of my own breathing—none of it mattered. All I wanted, all I needed, was for her to say something that would undo this moment. Something that would prove the Argento brothers were lying. That this wasn’t real. That she wasn’t really choosing them.Anything but this.“Ares is right,” she said, and just like that, the fragile thread of hope I had been clinging to snapped clean in half.Her voice didn’t shake. It didn’t waver. If anything, it was steady in a way that made it hurt even more.“I belong to them now. You and your brothers don’t have any claim on me anymore.”Each word landed with brutal precision, carving through what little was left inside me. It wasn’t just rejection, it was finality. A door slammed shut with no intention of ever opening again.I parted my lips, desperate to respond, to argue, to deny

    Aiden’s POV:My gaze stayed locked on Stephanie as I waited for her answer, every muscle in my body pulled tight like a wire about to snap.It would be no. It had to be no. Stephanie had no business with the Argento brothers, none whatsoever. Ares was bluffing, he had to be. That was the kind of stunt he would pull: barge in, stir chaos, then stand back and enjoy the fallout. I just needed Stephanie to say it. One word. No. That was all it would take to ease the pressure building inside me, to stop the storm gathering in my chest, to keep me from doing something reckless.She looked startled, like she hadn’t been expecting his accusation. Her brows pulled together slightly, her lips parted, and for a brief second, relief washed over me. That reaction told me everything. I knew it. There was no way she had called him. No way she would willingly drag those brothers into this. Ares was lying—twisting something, manipulating the moment like he always did.I turned toward him, ready to ca

    Caden’s POV: I could hear my heartbeat—loud, uneven, almost deafening, as our bodies collided. It wasn’t just contact. It felt like an impact, like something inevitable finally happening after being held back for too long. My hands found her waist, gripping her more firmly than I intended, like I needed to anchor myself to her or risk losing control completely. She held onto me just as tightly, her fingers curling into my shirt, clutching me like she was afraid I might disappear. The moment our skin touched, something ignited. Not just sparks, no, this was different. It was a wildfire. It rushed through me, sharp and consuming, burning through every ounce of restraint I thought I had. In the past, moments like this had always stirred my wolf. It would react, sure—restless, eager, drawn to her. But this… this wasn’t the same. This time, my wolf wasn’t just reacting. It was losing its mind. It surged forward inside me, clawing at the surface, desperate, no, demanding, to

    Tyler’s POV:“Steph, wait!”My voice echoed down the hallway, sharper than I intended, but she didn’t slow down. Not even a flicker of hesitation. She just kept walking, dragging that box behind her like it weighed nothing, like everything she was leaving behind meant even less.The sound of it scraping against the floor grated on my nerves.“Steph, please,” I tried again, my pace quickening as I followed her. “Just stop for a second. Let me explain.”Nothing.She didn’t turn. Didn’t speak. Didn’t even acknowledge that I was there. It was like I had already become part of her past, something she had decided to walk away from without a second glance.And that hurt more than I expected.The more I watched her, the rigid set of her shoulders, the way her back stayed straight like she had locked herself into that decision, the heavier something in my chest felt. It wasn’t just frustration. It was panic. Because I could see it now, clear as day: she wasn’t bluffing. She wasn’t trying to ma

    Stephanie's POV:My gaze locked onto Tyler's, then flicked to the bags he was clutching, and back to his face again.There was guilt and sadness in his eyes. It was as if he was carrying not only his luggage but an invisible burden that made his shoulders sag.Without uttering a single word, I step

    Stephanie’s POV:She laughed as I punched the hell out of her. Blood filled her mouth, yet her maniacal laughter only fueled my anger. She wasn’t even fighting back, and that frustrated me even more.The officials separated us just then.We stood, glaring at each other.She stepped closer to me.“D

    Stephanie’s POV:When I first stepped onto the field, I froze at the sight before me. Real people, actual human beings were being used in this challenge. My stomach churned with unease, but I had no other option but to participate. I couldn’t afford to back out now, not when so much was at stake.

    Tyler’s POV:The hunt was going better than expected. The forest, shrouded in twilight, was eerily silent except for the occasional crackle of leaves beneath our boots and the distant rustle of branches overhead. We had already taken down several animals, their lifeless forms marking a trail deeper
