Lexi’s POV

The sound of the ringing phone startled me, because it just sliced through a perfectly quiet room.

It came faintly at first, a distant hum somewhere beyond the splash of water hitting the tiles. I froze, mid-rinse, blinking the soap from my eyes. The phone kept ringing.

“Who on earth is calling this early?” I muttered under my breath, a little irritated, rushing through the last bit of my bath.

The water was warm, soothing, but the sound outside had already ruined the calm. I turned off the tap, grabbed a towel, and stepped out, leaving faint wet footprints on the tiled floor as I hurried to my room.

By the time I reached the table where my phone lay, the screen was still glowing… “Kayden.” He was someone I knew from my rogue haven.

My chest lifted slightly with surprise. It had been weeks since I’d heard from any of them. Too many things had been happening here, the attacks, the kids, the new arrangements for the children, and I had almost forgotten how chaotic things u

  • Alpha’s Regret: The Return Of The Betrayed Luna    Chapter 37

    Sophia’s POVThe mornings had begun to feel even more quiet lately. Manny had been busy with his usual schedule and leading the pack. The compound no longer hummed with the chaos of planning or rebuilding, it had settled and was now calmer.And that calm left me restless.I would often find myself wandering through the garden or sitting by the window in my room, watching the few pack members who passed through the courtyard below. Then, there was Danny, bright, curious Danny, with his easy smile and unshaken eagerness to please everyone. He was light-hearted yet slightly naïve.I hadn’t intended to grow fond of him. Truly, I hadn’t. But fondness crept in quietly. When everyone left for work, kids in their classroom, he kept me company, but never a really proper conversation. One morning Manny told him to come to the office.“Danny, I need you with me today,” he said in a tone that was neither a request nor a command. “We have to go through the produce inventory. Might take the whol

    Danny’s POVThe gates of the Red Fang Pack looked smaller than I remembered. Maybe it was me, maybe two and a half years away had changed something in how I saw this world. I stood at the entrance for a while, just staring, breathing in the air. It was home. It felt strange to call it that again. But I was glad to be back. I slung my bag over my shoulder and started walking in.Two guards stood by the gatehouse, their eyes following me curiously. One of them squinted, then blinked as recognition dawned.“Danny?” he said uncertainly.I grinned, throwing my arms wide. “In the flesh.”“Danny, Kiran’s brother?”“Still the same one,” I said, though his tone made me pause for half a second. “Why do you sound like I came back from the dead?”The two exchanged a quick look before forcing small smiles. “It’s been a while,” one of them said. “Didn’t expect you back.”“I didn’t expect to be gone this long either,” I admitted. “Academy life is... not for the fainthearted.”They laughed politely

    Jean’s POVThe mornings had begun to mean something again. The first sunlight that filtered through my apartment window no longer felt like a stranger’s intrusion but an invitation, a quiet reminder that I had a reason to get up. Teaching the children. Their laughter filled the classroom like a soft wind through open fields. Somehow, that had become my safe space. When Lexi left, I didn’t realize how much I’d miss her until I walked into the packhouse the next morning and she was not there to welcome me. The kids were quieter too, especially Nia, who kept looking at the door as if expecting Lexi to walk back in at any moment. I told her she’d gone on an important mission and would return soon, and Nia nodded. “Will she bring me something?” she asked, twisting her fingers together.I smiled and knelt beside her. “I’m sure she will. Maybe a pretty stone from Rogue Haven?”Nia’s eyes brightened immediately. “Can I give her one too when she comes back?”“Of course,” I said softly. “W

    Jean’s POV“Jean?”The voice startled me a little, snapping me out of my thoughts. I turned toward the sound of the phone vibrating beside the lamp on the small table. Lexi’s name blinked on the screen, and before I could even exhale, I picked it up.“Hello, ma'am,” I said quickly, maybe too quickly, my voice shaking slightly with anticipation.“Hi, Jean,” Lexi’s tone was soft, almost musical. “I just wanted to let you know everything’s ready now. You can pack your things and come over today. The children are excited to meet you properly.”For a second, I didn’t breathe. The words settled, “Truly? I can start?”“Yes,” she laughed lightly. “You can. Sophia already prepared your space behind the packhouse. It’s small but cozy, and there’s a classroom waiting for you. You’ll be living near us, close enough to reach the main house easily. Will you be alright with that?”I didn’t even have to think about it. “More than alright,” I said. “Thank you so much. You have no idea how much this m

    Sophia’s POV“Three days,” I said, smiling. “You’ll begin in three days, Jean. That should give us enough time to prepare the ‘classroom’ and get everything in order.” Jean’s face brightened with a quiet excitement that was refreshing to see. “Three days sounds perfect,” she said, her voice warm and grateful.I nodded approvingly. “Good. And about your stay, there’s a small chamber behind the packhouse, a one-bedroom space, a living room, kitchen and toilet. It’s not inside the main building, but it’s within the compound, close enough for comfort. I think it’ll give you some privacy, and it’ll be easier to get to the children every morning. Does that sound all right?”Her lips curved into a soft smile. “That sounds more than all right. I don’t need much ma'am. Just a place to rest and somewhere quiet to read at night.”I chuckled. “You’ll get both, I promise.”Lexi, who had been standing quietly beside us, spoke up finally. “You’ll love it here, Jean. The children can be a handful, b
