Rhea’s POV

I sat quietly in my room, nervously waiting while the council meeting was underway. I wasn’t permitted to join, and honestly, maybe it was for the best. I knew I’d be nothing but a distraction, especially with everything that had been unfolding lately. But even so, I couldn’t shake the feeling that something was about to go horribly wrong. What if Maya couldn’t get the evidence we needed to expose Emily’s schemes?

Just as my mind began to spiral, a frantic knock echoed from the door.

    Rhea’s POVI sat quietly in my room, nervously waiting while the council meeting was underway. I wasn’t permitted to join, and honestly, maybe it was for the best. I knew I’d be nothing but a distraction, especially with everything that had been unfolding lately. But even so, I couldn’t shake the feeling that something was about to go horribly wrong. What if Maya couldn’t get the evidence we needed to expose Emily’s schemes?Just as my mind began to spiral, a frantic knock echoed from the door. I rushed to open it, finding Maya on the other side. She stepped in quickly, her face tense, her eyes darting around the room as if expecting someone to overhear us. She locked the door behind her, then grabbed my arm and pulled me to sit beside her on the bed."Rhea," she whispered urgently, "their plan has already started."Her words sent a chill down my spine. "Already? But...what are we supposed to do now? We didn’t even get the evidence we needed against Emily!"Maya shook her head, her ex

    Rhea’s POVEmily’s grip around my throat shocked me, but the real surprise was the reaction of those around us. Everyone on the palace grounds seemed frozen, their eyes wide as they watched the former Luna hold me with such malice, her fingers digging into my skin. The sheer force of her hatred was overwhelming. She looked at me as though I were an intruder in her domain, a mere obstacle she could crush. Why must she control everything? Why does nothing ever satisfy her?“Why is no one ever good enough for you, Nora?” I rasped, struggling to free myself. But instead of letting go, she began to laugh—a wild, unhinged laugh that sent a chill down my spine.“You’re nothing but a foolish little girl,” she sneered, her voice dripping with disdain. Her hand shot up, and before I knew it, she was about to slap me. No. I won’t just stand here and take it. I managed to catch her wrist, stopping her mid-swing.“Don’t you dare,” I said, my voice steady despite the pressure on my throat. Her eyes

    Rhea’s POVI sat alone in my room, the silence pressing in around me as I tried to make sense of everything that had happened. My thoughts drifted back to that terrifying night, to the dark pit I had fallen into and somehow escaped from. Despite the fear, a part of me knew that it was no accident. Something powerful had awakened within me, something my mother had always hinted at, but I’d never truly believed.I ran my fingers along the edge of the bed, thinking back to the quiet conversations with my mother. She’d spoken about these powers, urging me to be patient, to prepare myself for the day they would return. But I had dismissed her words, doubting them as mere comfort. Now, regret gnawed at me. I should have listened. I should have trusted her.Despite my frustration, I felt a small spark of pride. Maybe patience did pay off after all. I closed my eyes, focusing my energy on a small object across the room. I let everything fade away, pouring all my concentration into that single

    Rhea’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 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

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

    Rhea POV"You must be joking, right? You do not actually expect me to do just as you wish with me. How could you say that? I have to bear you an heir? All of you? No, that is not possible. What do you think I am? An incubating machine that can just produce for you when you want or like? No, you can
