Alpha Ellison.

The moment the doors shut behind us, I turned to face her fully. My chamber was the only place in the palace where I could speak freely, and not fear that someone was at the corner listening.

Lucy stood before me, her head bowed, hands clasped tightly in front of her. Her shoulders trembled. I could feel the dread rolling off her, thick and bitter.

“Start talking,” I said, my voice lower than I meant it to be. The edge of a growl lingered in my throat.

She flinched, but nodded. “Trust me, all of this wasn't my fault. Ethan is the last person I would ever want to mark me, but he did regardless. Even when I pleaded and asked him not too.”

The words twisted a blade in my gut. My wolf howled within me, a feral, vengeful roar clawing to be let out. Still, I held it back. Barely.

“Without your consent?”

Tears shimmered in her eyes. She swallowed, and the pain in her voice struck deeper than I wanted to admit. “Yes. the truth is, he was my ex mate and ever since he rejected m

    LucyThe ground groaned like something deep under it was dying.At first, I thought I was imagining it—a low rumble crawling up my back. But then the floor moved again, harder this time, and dust began falling from the crumbling ceiling of the old underground library.“What the hell—” Thorne began.Then the entire place shook.Books fell from weak, bending shelves, and part of the wall split open with a loud, awful creak.“No,” I whispered. My eyes shot to Aurora, lying half-conscious on the freezing floor. Sweat clung to her hair, her body still and limp after giving birth to the twins. I had the babies in my arms—warm, wiggling, completely unaware of the danger all around us.“We need to get out. Now!” I shouted.“Liz, grab her legs! Thorne, hold up her back!”They didn’t wait. Liz moved like a machine—quick, calm, and silent. She didn’t look that strong, but you’d never guess it by how easily she supported Aurora’s weight. Thorne grumbled a curse but leaned down, lifting one of Aur

    Aurora.I could tell she meant what she said. Liz wasn’t the type to throw away her life for anyone, not even me. I gasped and bent over, clutching my belly like I could calm the storm that was raging inside me. The babies weren’t letting up. Sweat was sticking to my forehead, and I was breathing like I’d just run a marathon.“Liz,” I whimpered, trying to sound braver than I felt. “They’re not stopping. I really can’t—”“Keep moving,” Liz snapped. Her voice wasn’t cold, just urgent. She pulled me closer, taking more of my weight on her shoulder. “You better tell those babies to stay in there. They’re getting close, and if they catch up, I’m leaving you.”I didn’t have to ask who she meant.I glanced toward the end of the hallway. I could hear the boots—loud and steady, like a warning bell. I saw the shine of guns and the dark clothes. Liz had warned me: If they catch us, they’ll shoot.My throat tightened. I made myself move.One foot in front of the other.The fear in me bubbled like

    Aurora.Two days.That’s how long I’d been stuck in this filthy place, and still no sign of Lucy.I leaned back against the freezing wall of my cell, hands resting on my swollen stomach. The twins were still for the moment, thank the moon goddess but my thoughts were racing. I’d come into this prison full of determination, ready to do whatever it took. But now… that fire was starting to fade.The walls all looked exactly the same. Every hallway seemed to lead nowhere. I’d studied people’s faces, listened in on quiet conversations, and watched the guards’ movements carefully like a predator waiting to strike but nothing. Not even a whisper about where Lucy might be.Had I made a terrible mistake?Was sneaking into this prison pretending to be someone else brave or just plain stupid?“Get a grip,” I mumbled, pressing my fingers to my temple. “You didn’t fight your way in here just to sit around feeling sorry for yourself.”A sudden sharp pain hit low in my belly, making me wince. “Okay,

    Lucy.I slammed the cell door shut behind me. The loud clang didn’t make me feel any safer. Lately, nothing did.I was still damp from the bath, the cold water clinging to my skin. But the shame and anger I felt were much worse — hotter than fire. My legs were weak and shaky as I stood in the middle of the cell. My fists were clenched tight, my jaw locked, and my heart pounded so hard I could hear it in my ears.Riven had taken pictures of me. While I was bathing. When I was completely vulnerable. And the worst part? She got away with it.She always got away with things like that.My knees buckled, and I collapsed to the floor, leaning against the wall. My breathing turned into short, jagged gasps. I felt like I was about to break, like something inside me was about to snap wide open.And then I did break.I cried. Harder than I had since I got thrown into this place. Not the quiet, hidden tears I shed on that first night, curled under that rough, thin blanket. No. This was different.

    Lucy.I smelled it before I even opened my eyes.Still half-asleep, I rolled over on the cold slab of concrete they called a bed. My blanket was twisted around my legs. The air stank, thick, sour, and disgusting and the smell stuck in my throat like mold. I wrinkled my nose. That odor definitely hadn’t been there last night.I slowly sat up and squinted at the faint light coming in through the barred window. Something was wrong.“What the hell…?” I muttered, rubbing the sleep out of my eyes.I stood and looked around the small room. My cell wasn’t big just a narrow space with a toilet in the corner and a rusted sink barely hanging onto the wall. But now it reeked of something rotten. My stomach turned from the stench.I crouched near the back wall, where the smell was strongest. That’s when I saw a black nylon bag awkwardly shoved under the metal bedframe. My stomach tightened just looking at it. The bag was puffy and sagging like it was full of something nasty. I already had a bad fe

    Alpha Ellison.I leaned on the wooden doorframe of the kitchen, arms folded across my chest. The smell of herbs and freshly baked bread filled the room, but even that pleasant scent couldn’t stop the bitter feeling rising in my throat.And there they were. Ivy and Mucus.My jaw clenched as I watched Ivy lean forward and kiss him, slowly, gently, and like they’d done it plenty of times before. Like she didn’t care if someone walked in and saw them.I stood there silently. I didn’t move.Not because I was heartbroken, no, that feeling had died a long time ago but because this was a new low, even for Ivy. A kitchen assistant? In plain sight? She didn’t care at all. I’ve never seen someone behave so shamelessly. I would’ve asked if she was ever shown love growing up, but I already knew the answer.I cleared my throat loud enough to make sure they heard. My boots hit the kitchen tiles with a sharp sound as I stepped forward. Ivy’s head snapped up. Mucus’s face turned bright red, and he jum
