Fiona's pov

"You’re shaking.”

Logan’s voice snapped me out of my thoughts but his eyes searched mine like he was reading a book with missing pages.

“I’m fine,” I said.

“No, you’re not.”

We were still standing in the cramped kitchen of the bakery apartment. The glow from the single lamp made his face look sharper, every angle drawn in amber light. My hands wouldn’t stop trembling because of the weight of what he’d just told me.

My brother was alive.

I should have felt anger or felt relieved but instead it was all muddled together, too tangled to pull apart.

“I don’t know what to do with that,” I said.

“You don’t have to decide tonight.”

“That’s the problem,” I said. “We might not have another night.”

He stepped closer, close enough that I could feel the warmth from him.

“Fiona,” he said, softer now. “Look at me.”

I did.

“You don’t have to trust the world,” he said. “Just trust me.”

I wanted to. God, I wanted to. But I couldn’t stop thinking of the drive, the recordings, the way someone

  • A DEAL WITH THE ALPHA DEVIL   Hundred and thirty five: close to death

    Fiona's povWe started walking.Every step felt like the weight of the world seated against my chest, every breath breaking like glass against my throat. My mind refused to leave Logan’s face, the way his lips had turned pale, the warmth of his skin fading under my palms.He wasn’t dead. He couldn’t be dead. But each hour slipping by carried him closer to that final silence, and I could feel time dragging me into madness.My man would die if I failed. My love, my anchor. Tears clouded my sight until the trail ahead blurred. I bit them back, forcing myself forward. I didn’t have the luxury to cry. The mountain loomed miles away, jagged and black against the horizon, but close enough to fill me with dread. Each step closer carried a price. Every rustle in the trees, every echo in the wind whispered of monsters waiting.We tiptoed, blades at our sides, hearts pounding in our throats. No one dared speak. Even breathing too loud felt like an invitation to death.And then it happened.The

  • A DEAL WITH THE ALPHA DEVIL   Hundred and thirty four: ugly creature erupted

    Fiona's povThe visitors’ chambers smelled of perfume and spilled wine. I knocked once, hard, my chest burning from the climb up the stairwell.“Amaiya,” I called, voice rough. “Open the door.”There was shuffling inside, whispers hushed too quickly, then the sound of a lock sliding. The door creaked open just enough for Amaiya’s painted face to appear, flushed, her hair a tangled mess.“What do you want, Fiona?” Her tone carried annoyance, as though I had interrupted something sacred.I clenched my fists. “I want you to walk with me. To Neighs Mountain.”Her brows shot up, then narrowed. “Have you lost your mind?”I stepped closer, my voice sharp with desperation. “Logan’s been lying half dead for two nights. His body is warm, but he isn’t breathing. He has only hours left, Amaiya. I need the red orchids. I need help. You said you loved him once—”Her laugh was harsh, cutting. “Love? That was a different time.” She leaned on the doorframe with lazy indifference. “I have no interest i

  • A DEAL WITH THE ALPHA DEVIL   Hundred and thirty three: neighs mountain

    Fiona's povOutside, the clash of battle had long faded, leaving only the weight of what had been lost on the ground.But here inside, the only thing that mattered lay before me.Logan.His body rested on the bed, stretched out, pale, and unmoving. His chest refused to rise, his lips pressed tight as though death had kissed him already. Yet when I laid my trembling palm against his skin, heat lingered there. Not deathly warmth, but something stubborn. Something unfinished.Two nights had passed. Two endless nights of watching, waiting, whispering his name into the darkness. And still he hadn’t stirred.I had begged healers until their faces blurred. I had torn through books of spells, demanded remedies, poured every ounce of myself into finding a cure. But nothing had touched him. He remained trapped in a place I could not follow.My knees pressed into the stone beside his bed as I gripped his hand. Tears blurred the room, hot trails sliding down my cheeks.“You can’t leave me,” I whi

  • A DEAL WITH THE ALPHA DEVIL   Hundred and thirty two: Rowan wasn't lucky

    Fiona's pov “Hold on to me!” Logan’s roar tore through the storm.His shadows lashed outward, curling around us like wings of night, but they trembled under the silver fire Serenya hurled at him. Every strike shook the ground beneath my knees, every flare burned into my chest like I was breathing ash instead of air.“I’m not leaving you!” I screamed back, my voice shredding, but he didn’t hear. He was too lost in the pain. The chains scorched deeper into his wrists, glowing white-hot, hissing with Serenya’s magic. His skin blistered, blood dripping to the ground in rivulets, pooling dark into the dirt.Serenya’s voice rose above the storm, cruel and steady, each word like a blade. “You think you can hold her? You think shadows will keep her from me? She’s mine, Logan. She’s always been mine.”“You’ll have to rip her from my corpse first!” His snarl was raw, ripped from somewhere deep. Shadows exploded around us, thrashing against the flames, but each one fizzled as the silver fire de

  • A DEAL WITH THE ALPHA DEVIL   Hundred and thirty one: fury of the gods

    Fiona's povThe air trembled as Serenya’s laughter slide through the clearing. Silver fire licked up her arms, spilling from her fingertips, scorching the earth beneath her feet. Across from her, the white-haired woman stood calm, her storm rising again, her hair streaming like a banner of war.The ground quaked between them, light and shadow clashing, fire and wind spiraling into one another. The power in the air was suffocating, pressing into my lungs, weighing me down until I thought my chest might shatter. Wolves whimpered, warriors crawled away on their bellies, but no one could truly escape. We were trapped inside the storm they were weaving.“Your vengeance ends here,” the white-haired woman said, her voice steady even as the gale ripped trees from their roots.“Then you will die with her,” Serenya spat. Her hands flared, silver fire surging forward in a wall of blazing fury.The pale woman lifted her arms. Wind screamed into existence, colliding with the fire midair. The explo

  • A DEAL WITH THE ALPHA DEVIL   Hundred and thirty : who's the real traitor now?

    Fiona's pov The wind pressed me to the earth, my cheek grinding against dirt and blood-soaked grass. It was not just air that weighed me down, it was power, ancient and suffocating, flooding through the clearing in waves. Every breath I dragged into my lungs felt stolen, scraped from the storm that howled around us.The white-haired woman stood like the eye of that storm, unmoving, untouchable. Her hair whipped wild in the gale, her pale skin glowing as though it drank moonlight. She was not merely beautiful—she was terrible, the kind of beauty that stripped the soul bare.Even Serenya stared, her silver eyes wide. For the first time since she arrived, her cruel smile faltered.The wind settled, though it did not release us. Every guard, every wolf, every creature remained pressed to the ground. Only Serenya stood, her jaw tight, shoulders squared as she glared at the pale woman.“You,” Serenya hissed, voice vibrating with something I had never heard from her before. Not rage. Not co
