Eugene's plan crystallised as he moved through the shadowy corridors of the packhouse. He would need allies beyond Tate, someone with influence who could help contain the damage once his arrangement with the Moon Slashers came to light. His footsteps slowed as he passed Raymond's quarters, a new idea forming. The firstborn had always been ambitious, calculating. Perhaps there was a way to turn this situation to mutual advantage.

Meanwhile, in Lucious's room, Annabella's body trembled beneath his expert touch. She had dreamed of this moment for years, but reality surpassed every fantasy. The ruby pendant still hung around her neck, warming against her flushed skin as Lucious trailed kisses down her throat.

"Mine," he growled, the word vibrating against her pulse point. His control was slipping, the wolf in him demanding more with each passing second.

"Yours," she affirmed, her fingers tangling in his hair. The moonstone ring on her finger caught the dim light as she guided his mouth ba

  • Beta Heiress Annabella's Truth   Haunted by Cruelty

    As Raymond walked the familiar corridors of the packhouse, his mind replayed every cruel word he'd ever said about Annabella. The "little mouse" nickname, he'd been the first to use it after Tate, amplifying it throughout the pack. The jokes at her expense. The deliberate way he'd turned his back when she entered a room.All because Tate had convinced them Lucious was merely toying with her.All because he hadn't been strong enough to recognise his own mate.The Lunas' quarters were located in the western wing of the packhouse, a spacious suite designed for comfort and privacy. When Raymond entered after a respectful knock, he found his father's mate sitting beside a small, hunched figure on the sofa.Lucian looked up, his eyes red-rimmed and swollen. At twelve, he was still gangly with youth, his features a softer echo of Tate's. Raymond was

  • Beta Heiress Annabella's Truth   Brothers in Watchful Vigil

    "You should both get some rest yourselves," Maya suggested, her experienced eyes noting the exhaustion etched on both brothers' faces. "I'll watch over her.""I'm staying," Knight and Lucious said in unison, then exchanged surprised glances.Maya's lips twitched in what might have been a smile. "As you wish, Alpha Heirs. But at least eat something." She gestured to a small table where she'd set two bowls of the same broth Annabella had consumed earlier. "You'll do her no good if you collapse from hunger."Knight hadn't realised how ravenous he was until the scent of the rich broth hit his nostrils. His stomach growled audibly, reminding him he hadn't eaten since breakfast, before everything had changed."Thank you," he murmured, accepting the bowl Maya offered him.The brothers ate in silence, both k

  • Beta Heiress Annabella's Truth   Reassurance in the Dark

    Knight noticed Annabella's face had flushed pink, and her fingers had clutched the blanket more tightly. He wanted to reassure her somehow, to tell her that nothing would happen that she didn't want, but the words. He couldn't bear the thought of adding to her distress after everything she'd endured."We'll take everything at your pace," Knight said softly, surprising himself with his boldness. "Nothing will happen that you don't want or aren't ready for."Annabella's amber eyes found his, a flicker of gratitude visible in their depths. "Thank you," she whispered.The Alpha nodded his approval. "Knight is right. These bonds are sacred, but they develop at their own pace. There's no rush." He stood, his imposing figure somehow less intimidating as he looked down at Annabella with genuine concern. "For now, rest is your priority. Everything else can wait."

  • Beta Heiress Annabella's Truth   A Mother's Silent Captivity

    Knight's heart ached at the hope and fear warring in her voice. How cruel to make a child believe her mother is dead."She is," the Alpha confirmed gently. "She's been kept isolated in a cabin on our territory for five years. Eugene had her heavily medicated, convinced her it was for her own good." He hesitated, clearly weighing his next words. "She's with our best healers now. The withdrawal from the medications will take time, but Maya believes she'll recover fully."A single tear escaped down Annabella's cheek at the Alpha’s words.“I’m sorry…Alpha for the disruption to the pack this morning at breakfast that wasn’t my intention, and not how Lucious and I wanted to announce our mate bond, although I wasn’t aware I was mated to all six of them, till today, much like the other five, it must have been quite the shock for everyone.”The Alpha's expression softened at Annab

  • Beta Heiress Annabella's Truth   Treasure in Warmth

    "Yes," he admitted. "I noticed you were cold."She took another sip of broth before speaking again. "I still have it. It's my favourite."Something warm unfurled in Knight's chest at her words. She'd kept his gift. Had used it. Maybe even treasured it without knowing it came from him.A knock at the door interrupted the moment. Raymond stood in the doorway, his imposing frame nearly filling it. His gaze immediately went to Annabella, relief visibly washing over his features when he saw her awake."Father wants to speak with us," he said, addressing Knight and Lucious. "All of us. When Annabella is feeling strong enough."Knight tensed. The Alpha wouldn't call all six of them unless there was a lot to go through.“Ah, Alpha Heir Raymond, the camera is in the air vent of my room, fa

  • Beta Heiress Annabella's Truth   Shadows of Love and Fear

    "A few hours," Knight answered. "It's nearly sunset."Annabella's eyes widened suddenly, panic flashing across her features. "My father…""He is in custody, love, he can’t hurt you now, nor can Tate.” Lucious cooed.“Was I dreaming? I thought I heard Knight say that he was in love with me, has been for years.” Annabella turned her head slowly, her mind reeling, then it clicked, “the gifts and the paper cranes in only places I seemed to go to think.”Knight's heart stuttered in his chest. She'd heard him. Heat crept up his neck as he nodded, unable to find words beneath her amber gaze."Yes," he admitted finally, his voice rough. "Those were from me."Annabella's eyes widened, her fingers clutching the thin blanket covering her. "But why? You ne
