Alpha Rex. Chapter One Hundred and Eighty
(Isabella’s POV) “Say it again.” My voice barely came out. The words Eira had spoken continued to echo inside my head. Your father is still alive. I stared at the glowing entrance of the Heart, waiting for Eira to explain itself. Nothing happened. The light around the doorway simply pulsed softly, almost like a heartbeat. Rex was still beside me. His hand had found mine again, and this time I held on tightly. “My father?” I whispered. Eira’s voice came gently through the air. “Yes.” My chest tightened. “My father is alive?” “Yes.” I looked toward Orion. The old guardian had gone completely still. Cassian was no different. That was enough to tell me they knew more than they were saying. “You knew,” I said. Neither answered. I stepped toward them. “You knew my father was alive.” Orion lowered his eyes. “Isabella…” “No.” My voice cracked. “Don’t call my name like that. Answer me.” Rex moved slightly closer, but he didn’t stop me. I needed this. I needed the
Alpha Rex. Chapter One Hundred and Seventy Nine
(Rex’s POV — First Person)The messenger’s words changed everything.“They’re dressed in black.”No one in the command tent moved.For a few seconds, I could hear nothing except the sound of the wind outside.Then Varos pulled his sword completely free.“How many?”The messenger shook his head.“We couldn’t count them. They came through the northern ridge in silence. No horses. No banners. Nothing.”“How close?” Darius asked.“Less than an hour.”Commander Elara looked at Cassian.“Who are they?”Cassian didn’t answer immediately.His face had gone pale.Orion stepped closer to him.“You know.”Cassian finally nodded.“Yes.”“Tell us.”He looked around the tent before his eyes settled on Isabella.“They’re not an army.”Varos frowned.“They’re clearly an army.”“No.”Cassian’s voice was quiet.“They’re followers.”“Followers of who?”Cassian took a slow breath.“The man who was watching the Heart.”Isabella’s expression changed.“The cloaked man?”Cassian nodded.“His name is Malrec.”
Alpha Rex. Chapter One Hundred and Seventy Eight
(Isabella’s POV) The valley did not erupt into war. But it did not become peaceful either. After Eira spoke and Commander Elara lowered her spear, the army remained where it was. Hundreds of soldiers looked at one another with uncertain faces. Some seemed relieved. Others looked frightened. A few looked angry. Whispers spread through the camp like wind through dry grass. “She’s controlling it.” “No… did you hear the voice?” “The Heart spoke.” “It’s a trick.” “Maybe the prophecy was wrong.” I stood beside Rex, feeling every pair of eyes on us. Commander Elara slowly rose to her feet and faced her soldiers. “No one attacks,” she said firmly. Her voice carried across the valley. “We came seeking truth. We have not been attacked. We will not become the first to draw blood.” Several soldiers nodded immediately. But not everyone. A tall man wearing dark steel armor stepped forward from the crowd. He looked older than Rex, with a scar running across his left cheek and a swo
Alpha Rex. Chapter One Hundred and Seventy Seven
(Rex’s POV)The horn echoed through the Heart a third time.Every conversation stopped.The peaceful garden that had witnessed our confession only moments ago was suddenly filled with hurried footsteps. Guardians rushed toward the outer gates while the glow of the Heart brightened around us, as if it had awakened alongside us.I looked at Isabella.Neither of us let go of the other’s hand.This time, there was no reason to hide it.Cassian smiled quietly.“Go.”We nodded and ran toward the others.By the time we reached the entrance hall, everyone was already waiting.Orion stood before a large stone archway covered in ancient carvings. Lyra was beside him, her hands resting on the glowing symbols etched into the walls. Selene and Astra were distributing weapons to anyone who needed one, while Darius stood at the front with his sword resting against his shoulder.Eira’s voice filled the chamber.“The first group has reached the outer gate.”“How many?” Orion asked.“Three hundred and
Alpha Rex. Chapter One Hundred and Seventy Six
(Isabella’s POV)The news spread through the Heart within minutes.They were coming.No one panicked.There wasn’t enough time for panic anymore.The gardens that had been filled with laughter only an hour earlier became a place of preparation. Darius inspected every weapon he had. Selene gathered maps of the Heart’s outer passages while Orion and Lyra studied ancient symbols that glowed across the stone floor. Astra helped anyone who needed it, though she kept trying to lighten the mood with jokes that only half of us laughed at.Eira remained connected to every corner of the Heart.“I estimate the first group will reach the outer gate before nightfall,” Eira said.“How many?” Orion asked.“I can sense over three hundred.”The number settled heavily over everyone.Three hundred.Against the handful of us.Rex stood beside me.“We’re not fighting three hundred people.”Cassian shook his head.“No.”“We’re stopping them before a fight becomes necessary.”“And if they don’t listen?” Dar
Alpha Rex. Chapter One Hundred and Seventy Five
(Rex’s POV)No one spoke.Cassian’s words lingered in the air, pulling everyone’s attention toward Isabella and me.He looked unusually calm.Almost too calm.“What do you mean?” I asked.Cassian folded his hands behind his back before answering.“Walk with me.”I frowned.“Why can’t you tell us here?”“Because this isn’t everyone’s story to hear.”I glanced at Isabella. She looked just as confused as I felt.Orion gave us a reassuring nod.“Go.”“We’ll be here.”After a moment, Isabella and I followed Cassian out of the training grounds.He led us through a narrow stone path lined with silver flowers until we reached a quiet hill overlooking the Heart. From there, we could see the gardens, the streams, and the glowing trees stretching as far as the eye could see.Cassian stopped walking.For a while, he simply admired the view.“It never looked like this before,” he said quietly.“You’ve been here before?” Isabella asked.“Many times.”He smiled faintly.“But never after it had heale
Alpha Rex. Chapter Twenty Two
She woke with a sharp inhale, heart racing, the remnants of a dream clinging to her like fog. Fire. Running. Hands pulling her backward into the dark. She sat up too fast, breath uneven. “Hey.” Rex’s voice cut through the panic instantly. She hadn’t heard him move. One moment the chair by the
Alpha Rex. Chapter Twenty One
Night settled over Blackthorn like a living thing. The wind howled against the stone walls, slipping through narrow gaps and carrying the scent of pine, iron, and distant wolves. From the high window of the chamber Rex had given her, she could see the valley below—dark, vast, guarded by flickering
Alpha Rex. Chapter Eighteen
She didn't stay in the room. Of course she didn't. She tried. For a full five minutes, she stood by the door, staring at the handle, replaying Kaelen’s voice in her head. Stay here. The problem was—he had said it like a request. And she was very tired of being protected from the truth. Few min
Alpha Rex. Chapter Seventeen
The corridor felt colder after she left him.She walked slowly, deliberately as if any sudden movement might shatter whatever fragile control still held the night together. Her pulse hadn't settled. Her lips still tingled. Every step echoed with the memory of his hands- where they had been, whe
