LOGINRhea’s POVThe moment I left Alpha Killian’s presence, I could barely keep myself together. I ran straight to my room, slamming the door behind me and locking it with trembling hands. As I sank to the floor, curling up in a corner, my fingers tangled desperately in my hair. My heart raced as the events of the day replayed in my mind like a dark, relentless storm. Everything felt unreal, a twisted nightmare from which I couldn’t escape.Did I really hear what I think I heard? The realization hit me again, heavy and suffocating. Emily—she’s the root of all of this. She’s the one pulling the strings, orchestrating this entire plot against Alpha Killian. And he has no idea.A cold shiver ran down my spine. I couldn’t believe that someone Killian trusted had betrayed him so completely. She’s scheming to tear down his life, to ruin everything he’s worked so hard to protect. And the worst part? She’s using me as a weapon in her twisted game, setting me up as bait to shatter whatever bond rem
Council Elder EvanImmediately, I ended the call with Emily, and I felt enraged. Why were my plans not working? What exactly have I always done right that I am suddenly doing wrong? Because one thing I know for sure is I always get what I want. I have always been able to control Kilian. But that night, the day he came into the control room looking all tattered, I knew things were about to go sideways.I knew Kylian always had this rebellious spirit in him, but he never actually got to put it into motion. And now, whoever was backing him and telling him it was a good idea—either his brother or that witch called Rhea—was clearly working. And I'm not ready for my plans to be ruined yet. I will not let it get ruined. I will stop it in any and every way possible, even if it's my last strength.I used to do that. I got ready and made a group call to every one of the council elders, letting them know we had a meeting. And of course, they needed to be in my house first because we had to discu
Rodger POVWas this how it felt to be in love? Watching Kilian unable to control himself, trying his best to get Rhea back? Was this how it always felt? If this is how it is, then I don't think I have ever fallen in love before, because I've never felt this amount of emotion for just one person. It felt like he was trying to fight it, trying to keep his composure, but he couldn't.And at that moment, I knew I had always acted like I did not give a damn about my brother. Like I was ready to make him suffer all his life. But no, I just never wanted him to enjoy that peace I couldn't get. Yes, his life wasn't easy. I would never lie about that. He went through a lot. I would say he went through hell to be perfect like my dad.And then I tried everything in my power to make him lose that perfection, and yet he didn't. But when Rhea came, he slowly began to be the brother that I used to know before he was turned into a military man who couldn't even keep his buttons off without having them
Malachi POVI stood at the corner, watching my brother cry his eyes out, and for a second there, I couldn't understand what this amount of emotion meant. Should I call this love? I don't even know what to pinpoint it as because I don't think I am even in the right position to call whatis happening to him, love. Because I never saw it coming. I never saw anything like this coming between the two of them. Never gave this feeling that they would ever fall for each other. I thought. I thought they were just trying. Trying to hate each other more after what happened when they were children.I tried to fight back that memory, watching him cry and weep for her to come out of her sleep paralysis. And then it came to me again when we were so little. My dad was being so strict with Kilian on the day we first saw Rhea. Flashback“Wow, who owns those pretty shoes?” I said to Kilian as he shrugged. We were all around the age of 13 back then; I could remember clearly, and of course, Rodger was j
Killian POVOf course, we wasted no time as we raced after the doctor, trying to make sure he found a solution for us and an answer to everything that had just happened to her. We wanted only the truth. Just when he was about to shut the door, we busted in as he took his seat, trying to calm his nerves down. I took my seat as two brothers stood behind me and, of course, Malachi.Yes, one thing about Malachi’s incident: it happened to him unexpectedly. My dad was waging war against another pack at that moment and did not care about my brother. I was also too covered up, and then that was when we lost our dad. So I never really cared about my brother's paralysis. Yes, I knew that it happened, but I couldn't—I was just in so much control that I couldn't even come back to take good care of my own brothers. And I know that is one of the reasons why they still hate me up to this day.I know I am supposed to have already known from the start, but I guess I was just being so carefree about ev
Rhea POVYeah, I was only being bothered about the so-called relationship that was slowly brewing between Kilian and me. But then I fell into sleep, and I couldn't tell if this was a reality or a nightmare. But I woke up in that same room, still locked up, wearing the same dress I escaped in. I rushed towards the door and tried to bang it open, forcing it continuously to open, but it didn't. I began to sweat profusely. Not being able to even control my own hands, it felt like I was unable to control anything. I was soaked down to my feet in sweat. I couldn't tell if it was sweat or if I fell into something wet. I began to cry."Kilian, Rodger, Malachi, somebody, anybody out there, come and help me, please!" I shouted, but yet nothing. Nobody came to rescue. I was already suffocating. Was this a dream? I tried to escape, but it was too real. Each bump I had to the wall ached all over my body. And I couldn't hold it anymore.Only for me to open my eyes and jolt up. It was a nightmare. I
Malachi POVI was just sitting down here watching my brothers fight. I wondered why both of them ever seemed to agree with each other. Each one of us has been through tough times, but it does not mean that we always have to fight. They didn't really have to fight too much, and it was all just over
Killian POVWe all sat today. Something felt wrong; something did not feel right about this place, and I needed to know what. But Malachi and Rodger were already seeming impatient, and I did not know what to do anymore. There was nothing I could do as my answer tied. Then all of a sudden, Roja spok
Killian POV“Okay, I agree. I think finding the priest to help us find her is a good idea. Let's just get the priest and get this over and done with,” Malachi said to me as I looked at him gracefully at long last.“You don't have to look at me like that. I am only doing this to protect her. I know
Kilian POV"I wouldn't come here to say rubbish with you. Do I have time to say gibberish with you? Don't ever, ever say those words to me again. I don't know what you and Rodger have been talking about. Whatever discussion leads to, I am still your brother. Well, I would never try to harm any of y
