LOGINElena’s POVVesha was finally confirmed dead. I stood in the hallway, watching as the guards carefully lifted her lifeless body from the floor and prepared to take her away. There was something strangely unsettling about seeing her like that, especially knowing how much trouble she had caused me over the past few days.But I couldn't afford to show any satisfaction. Instead, I lowered my head and pretended to wipe away tears.Ruby stood beside me, doing exactly the same thing. We had to look devastated, as though we were genuinely mourning someone we had lost rather than someone whose death had saved us from a terrible situation.“Oh, Vesha,” Ruby murmured, covering her face with her hands.I forced a shaky breath.“This is so unfortunate. How could something like this happen?”One of the maids approached us with a sympathetic expression.“Please, Luna Elena, don't cry. The guards will find out what happened.”Another maid nodded.“Yes, Luna Ruby. You shouldn't blame yourselves. Nobo
Liora’s POVI couldn't explain what was happening to me. My entire body felt unusually warm, and every time Alpha Kael moved closer, I found myself wanting more of him. His hand rested against my breast, and I could feel the tension in his fingers as he struggled to maintain control.I looked into his eyes. He wanted me too. I wasn't blind to the desire reflected in his expression, and I could tell he was fighting against something just as strongly as I was.“Alpha Kael,” I whispered. “Don't stop.”His jaw tightened.“Liora…”“I want you.”I reached for his hand, gently holding it against me. I knew I was still recovering from the poisoning, and my fever hadn't completely disappeared, but I didn't want him to keep treating me as though I was incapable of making decisions for myself.“I feel fine,” I assured him. “We can still have sex. Having a fever doesn't mean I'm incapable of being with you.”He immediately shook his head.“You don't understand” he said.“Then explain it to me.”
Fay’s POV I hurried down the hallway with my phone pressed against my ear, trying to explain Liora's condition to the doctor when I discovered he had stepped out of the estate.He let his colleagues take care of Rio and Daniel but I needed him to attend to Liora, not them.“Please, you need to come immediately. Her fever has returned, and it's worse than before. She's sweating heavily and behaving strangely” I begged.The doctor asked a few questions, and I answered as best as I could.“I'm already on my way,” he assured me. “I'll get to her room first. I need you to prepare some clean towels and cool water. Don't give her any medication until I've examined her.”“Alright, Doctor. Thank you.”I ended the call and quickened my pace.I was worried about Liora. She had barely recovered from the poisoning, and now she was experiencing another episode that seemed even more troubling. I couldn't understand why her condition kept fluctuating.When I reached the kitchen, I immediately began
Alpha Kael’s POVI stared at Liora for several seconds before finally allowing myself to believe what I was seeing.Her cheeks were flushed, her breathing was uneven, and her fingers remained wrapped tightly around my arm. There was an unusual intensity in her eyes, something I had never noticed before. It wasn't simply the discomfort of someone battling a fever.Something else was happening to her, but before I could make sense of it, I found myself leaning towards her again.My lips met hers in a soft kiss.I hadn't planned to do it, I had only wanted to calm her down, hoping that the brief affection would distract her from whatever discomfort she was experiencing. Yet, the moment I kissed her, I felt how desperately she responded.Her fingers tightened around my arm, and she seemed to relax slightly. I pulled away after a few seconds, watching her carefully.“Are you feeling better?” I asked.She opened her eyes and looked directly at me.“Kiss me again” she said.I blinked.“What
Elena’s POVI walked down the hallway with Ruby following closely behind me.My mind was in turmoil, but I refused to let my anxiety slow me down. Vesha had been summoned to Alpha Kael's study, and I couldn't afford to let her reach him before I found a way to stop her.Whatever information she intended to reveal, I needed to know what it was. More importantly, I needed to make sure she never got the opportunity to expose us.“Slow down, Elena,” Ruby said behind me.I ignored her and continued walking.“I'm serious. Where exactly do you think you're going?”“To find Vesha” she answered.Ruby caught up with me, looking increasingly worried.“But the guard said she was already on her way to Alpha Kael's study.”“Then we need to find her before she gets there” I said.“And what are you planning to do when you find her?” She asked.I stopped and turned towards her.“Are you seriously asking me that?”Ruby looked uncomfortable.“I'm just saying we shouldn't do anything reckless. We've alre
Alpha Kael’s POV I glanced at the clock on my desk for what felt like the hundredth time.Vesha was taking too long. I had expected her to arrive shortly. Whatever information she claimed to possess had better be worth the delay because I wasn't particularly fond of having my time wasted.I leaned back in my chair and rubbed my forehead. Perhaps I should have gone to see her myself, but I had other things occupying my mind.Rebecca's words still bothered me and the thought of love made me scoff.That was ridiculous.I had spent years building my reputation, strengthening my authority, and making sure nobody could use my emotions against me. I wasn't about to throw all of that away because of a woman who had brought nothing but complications into my life.Liora was a responsibility. Nothing more.I had made it clear from the beginning that I wouldn't allow anyone to use her against me.That was all. There was no reason to attach another meaning to my actions.I straightened in my cha
I still remember the smell of smoke, thick and chocking, curling into my lungs, and the sound of my mother’s screams echoing through the house as she was slaughtered along with my father for trusting the wrong people.Though it has been a long time since that night, it is burned into me as if it ha
The Alpha Losing ControlKael’s POV“Your blood… shouldn’t exist.”The words left my mouth before I could stop them.For a moment, silence settled between us.Liora stared at me as if I had spoken a language she did not understand. Her breathing was uneven, her chest rising and falling beneath the
Liora’s POV“She is dangerous.”Alpha Kael’s voice followed me like a shadow as the guards dragged me from the room.My feet barely touched the floor as they hauled me through the doorway, their grips iron-tight around my arms. The heavy doors slammed shut behind us with a thunderous boom that ech
Alpha Kael's POVThe fire’s warmth did nothing to chase the chill that had settled into my chest. She knelt there, slick with oil, the faint scent of jasmine clinging to her skin. The linen she wore was thin, clinging to her body, leaving nothing to the imagination. Every curve, every swell, ever
