Anger flared in my chest, but I held it down and I nodded calmly. “Yes. I understand.”
He moved past me toward the doors. “Clara will show you around.”
A woman appeared beside me. I hadn’t even heard her coming. She was a different maid, a few years older than I was.
She was small, soft-looking, with dark skin and curly brown hair. Her expression was warm, unlike the rest of the people here.
I followed Clara out of the office, my shoulders tense as we walked down the hall.
She smiled gently. “You shouldn't let

Alpha's Cursed Twain CHAPTER 96
KILLIAN’S POVFor a start, I was never a deep sleeper. If I were, I would have been faster than I could say “halt.” Being an Alpha and a Mafia asset simultaneously does this to you. You always have to be wary of your surroundings, even while you sleep.So I still couldn't wrap my head around the fact that Celeste was able to come close enough to hurt me while I slept. It just seemed surreal. I would have heard her footsteps the minute she stepped into my wing, and if I miraculously managed to sleep through that, then I would most definitely have heard when she opened my door. But for some unfathomable reason, I didn’t hear that either. I heard nothing until it was too late. Until the blade slid into my arm.“This is sim
Alpha's Cursed Twain CHAPTER 95
CELESTE’S POVNighttime has gradually become a nightmare to me. I wish time would be slowed so I don't have to face it, and when it finally comes, I wish time would be sped up so I will get it over with. I just wasn't looking forward to it, unlike before, when it used to be my rest time. Now, the minute I put my head down on the bed, I have no rest until the sun rises. Like always, tonight wasn't an exception. The only difference from other nights will be the fact that I abandoned my bed like a plague and opted to sit on a resting chair. I wasn't planning on sleeping, but I was just exhausted after hours of training, so it was only fair for the rest of my body that my brain shut down barely minutes after I sat down. The nightmare came quite early tonight, and it came with something new: fury. Most of the time, it starts with confusion. I would spend a good hour or two trying to decipher what was going on and how to get myself out of it. But this time around, that wasn’t the case. Fu
Alpha's Cursed Twain CHAPTER 94
SELENA’S POVI watched them. Everything unfolded before my eyes, and even though I can applaud him for his exceptional acting skills, it doesn't get past me that he was actually interested in Celeste. Not in the kind of way I wanted him to be. There and then, I figured out his weakness.Emotional attachment. If he continues to let his emotions get in the way of his goal, he will grumble to the ground when he is right at the base of winning. I wouldn't want that. Not that I care about him on a personal level, he could go to hell for all I care, but for the sake of my agenda, he needs to stay alive. He is but a mere subordinate in the plan, but his job, if well done, will actually save me a lot of stress. The way he looked at her, the way he handled her, I know adoration when I see one, and I should warn him before he gets too deep into it. Besides, you can’t get your way around the heart of someone who already has a mate; it’s unnatural. So I waited until he was alone again, in t
Alpha's Cursed Twain CHAPTER 93
CELESTE’S POV I left the room for him. He wasn’t making any attempt to leave, and I couldn't stay in his presence for long. I might end up committing a stupid act that I would end up regretting. As furious and heartbroken as I was, I still couldn't overlook the fact that he was still an Alpha, a leader. And I know firsthand how it ends for anyone who disrespects one. So, leaving the room was more to my advantage. As if the day wasn't bad enough, barely ten feet away from my room, as I heard outside the estate, toward Selena’s, I came across Sam, bright and chatty as usual. I inwardly face-palmed myself before he could even reach where I was, knowing he would stick to me like a stubborn glue. I don't really know what’s up with him, I don't want this type of attention; I just want to be left alone. But it turns out that memo is super hard for him to read through. “What’s up, Celeste? Great morning, isn’t it?” He had his hand around my shoulder, softly nudging me toward his chest i
Alpha's Cursed Twain CHAPTER 92
KILLIAN’S POVI realized quite early the next day that hiding behind shadows wasn’t going to help me or Celeste, or our case together. I was the man in this, if anything, I should be finding ways to get us both to at least agree to a peaceful treaty of some sort. Just something to get us to agree to tolerate each other before everything is settled.And what was the best way to do that than to confront her?I made up my mind I was going to face her, even if it meant having to endure the tantrums and heartaches she threw my way. If I don't do that, then it is only a matter of time before I lose myself to insanity. I was at the brink of that, I could feel it eating away the rational part of me.
Alpha's Cursed Twain CHAPTER 91
CELESTE’S POVThe first person I made eye contact with when I opened my eyes from the dreamless yet restless sleep was Selena, and the first question I asked her immediately after was,“Is Vanessa back?”“I wasn’t aware she went somewhere.” She had dragged the chair, which was positioned by the window, meant to be used for relaxation while staring at the vast greenery through the window, and had positioned it beside my bed, where she was currently seated. She also seemed the least interested in the conversation I was initiating.“I believe she went to hunt days back….”
Alpha's Cursed Twain CHAPTER 90
KILLIAN’S POV Instinctively, I was up on my feet and in front of the door before Logan made any rash move. The desire to place myself in front and always protect my pack member, whoever it was, always took over me, and I usually just acted it out. “That’s what it takes to be an Alpha, what is expected of an Alpha.” The elders will always say. If this was an attack, I already knew even before opening the door, where to look for the attackers. Having two identities will do that to you. Not only are the rogues or witches not absurd enough to send a direct attack, but they all knew the rules surrounding wars and knew not to breach them. The only people who wouldn't give a single fuck about rules and everything in its circle were the mafia groups. They will stupidly attack just to rile me up. If that’s the case, then I had to congratulate them before anything; they have definitely succeeded in that. I motioned for Logan to move to the sight, away from being viewed directly when the do
Alpha's Cursed Twain CHAPTER 89
KILLIAN’S POVMy self-control was wearing thin.Everything happening around me either manages to upset me or upset me even more. Both physically and emotionally, I was fighting battles, and I have no idea how to go about either.Is it the sudden appearance of my brother? Is the crisis with the witch? Are there issues with the rogues? And most importantly, is it the odd behaviors of Celeste? I all but know how to manage either of them. For the life of me, I couldn't even pinpoint where exactly should be my starting point.“Are you even listening to what I was saying?” Logan stood nearby, arms folded, and eyed me behind my desk. I was restless, it w
Alpha's Cursed Twain CHAPTER 88
CELESTE’S POV I pushed forward, following the voice like flowing water in the sea. The sensation that covered me whole was odd, unnerving, and almost maddening I would say. I knew I wasn’t dreaming, in fact, I was far from it. But at the same time, I couldn't seem to get a hold of reality. I couldn't snap out of the trance state and return back to my room even if I wanted to. It was as if the voice had bonded me to itself and wouldn’t let go no matter how much I tried to shake my head. I could tell it was still in the early hours of the morning as I passed by an open window in the extensive hallway. But it was still too early for any maid to be awake and about with their day so I was the only one walking around, the sound of my feet hitting the ground creating a thud that could easily be mistaken for the sound of a beaten heart. Or was it my heartbeat reaching my eyes and not my footsteps? I couldn't even tell I was sweating until the water from my forehead dripped down my eyes, I
