Just like Leila had, her father also burst through the doors as if this entire territory belonged to him. His gaze was fierce, eyes wide and the thick, black long hair flying everywhere. His thin face with that evil glower was giving him Lucious Malfoy vibes except for the blonde hair color instead of black.
His eyes scanned the room at once. His gaze pinned Leila in her place for several seconds. Even I was afraid of the look in his eyes. Now I understood why Leila had looked so scared at the mention of her father.
He moved his eyes away and then turned to Alpha Bruno. Lips curled back in a threatening growl, he asked, “Who put my SON in the prison, Alpha Bruno?”
Alpha Bruno did not even blink at Alpha Griffin’s obviously bursting anger.

Adrian and I walked back to the house. Unlike every other time, he did not hold my hand while walking. I swallowed the shiver of pain that ran through me but kept quiet. I did not want others to listen to our conversation during our walk. We were walking side by side but he kept his distance. And that small gap that he left between us, well, it sucked. If someone had said to me before that I would turn into a sappy teenager who wants to hold her boyfriend’s hand all the time, I would have laughed my ass off. Right now I wanted to cry my ass off, and that was not pretty. Adrian opened the doors to my house and went in first. “Stay here.” he ordered and walked into the house first. I watched his back as he opened all the rooms and checked behind the doors and in the closets to make sure that it was safe inside. The house was still the same as I had left it. No sign of any living being staying in the emptiness of the brick walls. Ever since mom had been kidnapped, I had not been abl

I shrugged my shoulders as a chill ran down to my spine while I headed toward the hospital to be with mom. Maybe like Frankenswine, I will find a corner in the hospital room and feel somewhat safe by a miracle. The hospital hall was white and silent. My footsteps echoed in the hall as I made way to the room where mom had been shifted. My heart tightened in a knot as I grabbed the handle and gathered all my courage to enter the room. The past few days had been such an emotional rollar coaster, and now the argument with Adrian just fuelled my sadness.“August?” Mom’s croaked voice called out to me, making my eyes snap open. I pushed the door open and walked right in. Mom was sitting up in bed, leaning over to the nightstand to place the glass of water on the nightstand next to the bed. The moment I saw her, I broke in tears. There were dark circles under her eyes and she was so thin but her eyes brightened when she saw me.I rushed to the bed and dropped my arms around her shoulders

My eyes widened in shock. Leila’s cheek had turned red almost immediately and tears started falling down on her cheeks. The slap was a hard one, twisting her neck to the side. I had never expected Alpha Griffin to be this ruthless to his own daughter. He was more concerned about his son and there was clearly no fucks given to the daughter. No wonder Leila grew up to be so twisted in the head. My mom, she would never behave like this with me. As if she was habitual to the insult, Leila turned her head back around to face her dad and cried out, “I did everything I could, dad! I really did!” with her face stained with tears, she rushed to grab Alpha Griffin’s arm and beg, “We should get Lorenzo out of the prison fast. He must be so miserable there! He has never been alone in dark places, daddy. Should We go check on him?”Alpha Griffin jerked his arm out of Leila’s grip and shot her a disgusted stare.“I will save my son! He is going to rule my pack after me! He will be the one who kee

My eyes had snapped open completely. I straightened, getting up to sit in the bed. Adrian had his cell to his ear, listening to his dad from the other side of the call. He was quiet and unaffected as he heard the news while I had just become still with shock.“Is he alive?” “He is.” Alpha Bruno replied, “badly hurt though. His head was smashed, and three of his ribs were broken. A leg fracture and shoulder dislocated.”“Did they find who attacked him?” Adrian asked, his eyes briefly slides to my face before moving toward the little devil piggie of mine who was now growling at Adrian like he had snatched its favorite food out of its mouth.“No,” Alpha Bruno said, unaware of the lethal visual battle that Frankenswine and Adrian were having, “The guards were changing shifts when it happened. Lorenzo could not see the attacker’s face as he was pinned down from behind.”A ghost of smirk appeared on Adrian’s face. My confusion grew deeper.Alpha Bruno continued, “Griffin is earning my bra

“Lorenzo was in the hospital. In your fucking hospital! How in the fucking world his oxygen mask came off without anyone noticing? What kind of lousy security have you given to my son?!”Brady was standing in all his glory with his hands in his pocket and a poker face. I was not used to seeing him this serious as he was always playful when he was with Adrian. But right now he looked like his face had been set with glacier. Just emotionless and stern.He looked at the two guards standing on the side, “Did you see anyone going in and out? The security footage?”“No one.” the guards who were almost as big as MMA fighters with strong built and fully clothed bodies, shrugged, “there is no camera inside the hospital room but no one went inside the room except the guards and Alpha Griffin.”“Maybe your son took the mask off on his own while unconscious?” Brady questioned. Even I knew that it was not a very smart assumption.Alpha Griffin scoffed furiously, “You are making a fun of me, arent

The talk travelled faster than air. Gossip spread like wildfire. As if it was a viral story on the internet, all the misdeeds that Lorenzo had ever committed started spreading out along with the sins that he had committed after coming to our pack. As his crimes got revealed, and people found out that he had tried to murder multiple omegas, the gossip about him increased even more. The headline of his crime was- Lorenzo is being punished by a mysterious force created by Moon goddess for taking advantage of his power.Getting beaten up without trace, the oxygen mask falling off, and especially the attack of crows- it all signified that Lorenzo had committed grave sins for which moon goddess had cursed him. He would never be a good alpha. He is going to die at our pack but not before he had suffered a lot.The more people talked, the more news spread and badmouthing about alpha Griffin, Leila and Lorenzo began. Alpha Griffin, on the other hand, was furious out of his mind. Now as I pi

“Let’s take a seat.” Adrian grabbed my hand, leading us toward the dinner table but I snatched my hand out of his grasp,“What are you doing?!” I hissed, “You should go. There are so many people there. Even two alphas!”He rolled his eyes, “It is just dinner! And now you are my Consort. You have every right to be at that table.”“Right! I keep forgetting about that. But I don’t want to creat a farce.” I kept my voice low to make sure nobody else hears us, “the dangerous energy between your dad and alpha Griffin, it is already so heavy in the air. Let’s not create more troubles, Adrian.”All eyes turned to us when we took

‘What just happened?’‘Where did she go? Did she just disappear?’‘Look under the table.’‘Oh my god… she knows dark magic!’A commotion had lit up the entire hall. Everyone was so shocked that no one was even pretending to keep their voices down. Leila had just disappeared in front of everyone without a trace within less than a second. Everyone had started murmuring about Leila using magic to run away. It was the only plausible explanation.Alpha Griffin faked a worried face. He was looking around frantically to find Leila but she was nowhere to be seen.
