Milena~

What was my expectation?

Stupid me.

It’s unwise that I still fall for his tricks. Alpha Vladimir is no different. A man remains a man. I know better than to trust any man.

How did I get swayed by his facade for a minute and see past what he is? I fell for this man—almost.

Tearing my mind away from Alpha Vladimir, I strip off my dress, drop it on the counter before turning on the running water. Calmness seeps into my veins as the water bites my skin. I scrub my body with gentleness, espe

  • Alpha’s Mistake   Chapter 86

    Milena~Vera stays behind me while I copy Zlata’s movements, though every scrape of boots against stone makes me wonder if Drago has noticed my absence.At one point Zlata ushers us into an empty storage space while two warriors pass nearby. I listen until their footsteps fade, and the question I have been avoiding starts again. Is Stefan worth being caught for?He knows how to move through places respectable people avoid; he knows people I do not, and he wants to work for me. If I am serious about bringing the Ryders down, I cannot keep relying on luck and anger. I need people who can do things I cannot do myself, and Stefan may be useful if I can keep him from stealing everything that is not nailed to the floor.We make it to the stables without anyone stopping us. Zlata ducks behind sacks of feed and retrieves a folded black cloak she has hidden there, which makes me stare at her until she notices.“Why are you looking at me like that?”“You keep a cloak hidden in the stable?” I as

  • Alpha’s Mistake   Chapter 85

    Milena~I have paced the same strip of rug so many times that I am beginning to hate the sight of it, but sitting down is worse because the second I stop moving, the courtroom starts replaying in my head. Dragomir asked Vera who she truly was, mocked her while she stood beside me, and Vera said nothing that could help me understand why his question frightened her so badly.Why did she let him corner her like that? Vera has been beside me through too much for me to pretend it means nothing. I trusted her in a house where trusting anyone is almost begging to be betrayed, and now I am stuck wondering if I have done it again, whether I have handed faith to someone who has kept part of herself hidden from me.Heaven help her if this is another secret that can throw me deeper into Ryder madness.The door opens and Vera walks in with her gaze on the floor, fingers twisting the side of her dress. One look at her almost sends all the questions rushing out of me at once, but I stop in the midd

    Alpha Vladimir~Zoran returns with clothes and boots while Fenrir is still working through injuries that should have healed by now, and pulling clothes over my side reminds me how badly the fight in the forest affected us. The shirt sticks against the wounds around my shoulder and ribs, but there is no time to waste thinking about pain when Kane has finally located the place where my father and Beta Blackwood have kept Milena’s brother for years.Kane already has the horses prepared when Zoran and I join him, so we mount and ride toward the outer territory without wasting time on conversation. The farther we move from the packhouse, the thicker the trees become until the main grounds vanish behind us and the route narrows into land few people would bother entering without a reason.For years, finding Milena’s brother has been one of the reasons I have tolerated my father breathing. Killing the old bastard has tempted me more times than I can count, but his death could have buried the

  • Alpha’s Mistake   Chapter 83

    Alpha Vladimir~Lada has never needed to sneak out of my packhouse, so watching her move through the trees in a black cloak tells me one thing before I understand anything else: she does not want to be seen.I keep a reasonable distance behind her with my hands inside my pockets, matching her pace without giving her a reason to notice me. Even with my mark on her neck, she is not a prisoner here. If she wants to leave the packhouse, nobody will stop her without my order, which makes this little performance irritatingly suspicious.What the fuck is she hiding?Her head keeps moving from one side to the other while she ventures deeper into the trees, checking behind trunks and glancing toward the yard she left behind. There is nothing important in this direction, only forest and territory that grows less traveled the deeper one goes.So where is she going?She stops beside a thick tree.I slow with her.Her lips are moving.Who the hell is she talking to?I inhale and search through the

    Alpha Vladimir~Jett has the nerve to stand in my courtroom with armed men at his back and the arrogance of a bastard who expects to leave with someone from my pack.My old rag sits to my left while Beta Blackwood occupies another seat along the council table, with the elders positioned on both sides. Jett stands before us with his men lined behind him, their hands never straying far from their weapons, which tells me this visit can become bloody the instant one person makes the wrong move.I keep my face unreadable and ask the question that matters.“Who is your mate?”My thoughts are less polite as I study the bastard. Which unlucky woman in Virethorn has the Goddess chained to this sick beast?Jett replies, “The princess of the Ryder household.”For one fucking heartbeat, I think I have heard him wrong because there is only one Ryder princess he can be speaking about, and the thought of Zlata being bound to this man makes my fingers press harder against the arms of the throne.Jett

  • Alpha’s Mistake   Chapter 81

    Milena~What my eyes land on is the last thing I’ve imagined witnessing, even though I know Drago is capable of anything. Freja is on her knees between Drago’s spread thighs, taking his cock into her mouth while he sits upon his throne like the disgusting animal I have always known him to be.For a moment, neither Vera nor I moves.The sounds coming from Freja’s mouth travel through the courtroom while Drago rests against the high seat with his eyes partly shut and one hand lying on the throne, enjoying himself without the slightest concern that anyone might walk through those doors.Like I said earlier, I should have expected nothing better from him.This is the same man who calls me his Luna while keeping slaves and maidens around him for his pleasure, so finding another woman between his legs should hardly be shocking.I move my eyes away from Freja’s mouth and stare at Drago’s face instead. “I’ll come back another time. You’re busy.”Drago opens his eyes and finds me standing ins
