LOGINElena’s POVI was doing everything within my power not to lose my temper.The maid standing in front of me had the audacity to behave as though she owned the entire estate. She spoke confidently, smiled whenever she pleased, and looked at me without the slightest trace of respect.It was infuriating.I had spent years building my position in this pack, making sure people understood that I wasn't someone they could casually disrespect. Yet here I was, standing in my own chamber, being threatened by a girl who was supposed to be serving me.How had things gotten this bad?I knew that allowing this maid to discover my secret would eventually come back to haunt me. Apparently, I had underestimated her."How much do you want?" I finally asked, trying to keep my voice calm.She tilted her head."What do you mean, Luna Elena?" She asked."Don't play games with me. You came here demanding a reward, so tell me how much money you need to keep your mouth shut permanently” I said.Instead of ans
Alpha Kael’s POVTristan sat in the middle of the room, surrounded by several guards. He looked uncomfortable, but he was doing his best to hide it. After all, it was obvious this wasn’t his first time.His hands rested on his thighs, and his eyes occasionally moved towards the guards standing near the door.I remained standing in front of him, studying his face.When I had already heard about Vesha's death, the circumstances surrounding it were suspicious enough to demand answers. But what interested me even more was what Fay had told me.According to her, Tristan had looked extremely frightened when the maid announced Vesha's death. When she questioned him about it, he admitted that he had done something very bad.That statement alone was enough to make me suspicious."What exactly did you do, Tristan?" I asked.He looked up at me."Alpha Kael, I haven't done anything wrong” he said, his voice a bit strained.I narrowed my eyes."Then explain why Fay believes otherwise."He swallow
Elena’s POVI couldn't believe Alpha Kael had ordered the guards to confine Ruby and me.What exactly did he think we had done?As we were escorted down the hallway, I kept replaying the events in my head, trying to understand what had made him so suspicious. His expression had been terrifying, and he hadn't even given us an opportunity to explain ourselves.I glanced at Ruby, who was walking beside me. She looked just as frightened as I felt. Neither of us spoke until we reached the hallway where the guards intended to separate us."Wait!" I suddenly demanded.The guards stopped and looked at me."What is it Luna?" one of them asked."I need to speak with Ruby” I said."You're not allowed to—""Just a moment," I interrupted. "Unless Alpha Kael specifically ordered you not to let us exchange a few words, I don't see why this should be a problem."The guard exchanged a look with his colleague before finally stepping aside."Make it quick."I immediately moved closer to Ruby."Come here
Rio’s POVThe first thing I noticed when I opened my eyes was the dull ache in my abdomen.I groaned, shifting slightly on the bed, only to regret it immediately. Pain shot through my stomach, forcing me to lie still as I tried to remember what had happened. Then everything came rushing back.The challenge, the crowd, that damn guard who had approached me with a message from Amarok before plunging a knife into my stomach.My jaw tightened.That bastard.I glanced down and discovered that my injury had already been treated. A clean bandage covered the area where I had been stabbed, and the sharp pain I expected was now a manageable ache. Someone had obviously done a good job patching me up.But how long had I been unconscious?I turned my head and looked around the room. It was still dark outside. The lights were dim, and judging by the silence, it wasn't morning yet.Then I noticed another bed a short distance away. Daniel was lying on it.He appeared completely unconscious, his body
Elena’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.”
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
Liora's POVMy skin tingled as the maids’ hands glided over me, spreading oil down my shoulders, across the slope of my collarbone, over the curve of my breasts, down my ribs and over my waist. Their touch was careful, almost timid, as if I were a fragile artifact rather than a living woman.The s
