CALITHEA

The silence Ryden left behind in the room was more tense than the entire confrontation.

Every adrenaline that had been keeping me upright suddenly drained away, leaving me completely exhausted.

Turning to Valen, I kept my voice low but resolute. "I am going to sleep in the servants' quarters tonight."

"I can't let you stay alone tonight. Not after everything that happened," Valen said immediately. "He left here furious. He could show up there and—"

"He won't," I interrupted gently. "

    VALENHer voice had been nothing more than a whisper, but I heard it. Every word had been clear.Our bodies still glistened in the aftermath of our lovemaking.The only sound left in the room was our breathing after the confession she had made.It felt as though her words were hanging between us as I remained silent, my gaze fixed on her tear-streaked face.Those brown eyes still searched mine. The sight stirred something inside me I had never imagined I would feel.An emotion so overwhelming it dwelled in my chest, refusing to let go.I brushed the tears from her cheeks, yet I still said nothing. Even though I knew the very words she wanted to hear.My chest tightened with feelings I could barely contain, but I knew the responsibility that came with speaking them aloud.How could I tell her how deeply she had rooted herself inside my heart... while still forcing her to remain hidden from the world?It would be unfair to her.And I would rather carry that burden myself than make her b

    Valen “H-heat?” Her small yet enthralling voice asked, as she peered at me with those eyes that were dilated in panic and confusion.“Yes.” I nodded, and understanding clouded her face at once.She took a careful step away from me, trying to control what her body wanted at that moment. I watched the rapid transformation take over her body as her breathing became more ragged than usual. Small beads of perspiration were already beginning to appear along her forehead. She quickly moved to the small window and pulled the curtain aside, to invite air into the room. But it was a futile attempt.“You…you should please leave.” She stuttered, quickly putting her hair in a messy bun. I hadn’t even paid attention to her words, because something about that little action made an ache unravel in my pants. She was fighting a losing battle against her own body, but it was hard fighting against my own instinct that wanted to take her here. Every cell in my body screamed at me to close the dis

    CALITHEA The teacup slipped from my hands.It crashed against the floor, shattering into countless pieces as I struggled to breathe.I gripped the doorframe for support, keeping my eyes anywhere except the pair of burning eyes who had already shifted toward me.Feeling guilty for overhearing their conversation was the last thing on my mind.I had only come to bring my father his tea.When I first caught Valen's scent, I had convinced myself I was imagining it, that he couldn't possibly be here.Now that I thought about it, Meredith's strange expression and the way she hesitated when I insisted on taking the tea myself should have given me a heads up. Ever since I had shut myself away in this house without my father's knowledge.I never tried to make my presence known to him, but I never had imagined that doing that today would unravel everything I believed about my life.Everything.My entire existence had been built upon a lie.When I finally found the courage to look at Valen, cou

    VALENDays later…Everything looked normal on the surface like nothing ever happened.It had only been a week since Ryden's death."It's strange," Liam said as he flipped through a stack of files. "There hasn't been a single death this past week."He shut one of the files and leaned back in his chair. "It's almost as if one tragedy swallowed the rest. Like the storm finally passed."I said nothing, because despite how unsettling his words sounded, they weren't wrong.Yet peace was the last thing I felt.It was as if Calithea had taken the little peace she brought into my life along with her.It felt like she had vanished without a trace, but the only thing keeping me sane was the faint tug from our bond every now and then.A reminder that she was still alive and breathing.But every emotion she carried remained buried behind walls I couldn't break through.A knock echoed through the office, before Soren stepped inside, and then leaned against one of the shelves with his usual unreadab

    CALITHEA Dead. Dead. Dead.The word was a relentless mantra as I stood frozen at the doorway, staring into the room, unable to step inside. I had no idea how I had gotten here after Mira broke the news to me. I guess it was to confirm if she was actually saying the right thing to me, and it wasn’t a dream.I didn't recognize any of the men gathered in there, except Valen, who was speaking to someone I assumed was the pack doctor.I could clearly hear their conversation."He'd been dead since last night."The doctor's mouth was set in a thin line as he glanced back at the body on the bed, which was mostly hidden behind them."Even if we'd found him earlier, he wouldn't have survived. Whoever attacked him finished the job without mercy." His expression conflicted.As the doctor turned to leave, and our eyes briefly locked together, as he left.It was then I saw the body.I had been hoping there had been some mistake, but it had only been wishful thinking.Ryden's face was so battered

    CALITHEAThe next day…Warmth.That was the first thing I felt before I even opened my eyes.Strong arms were wrapped tightly around me, as a familiar scent filled my senses.My eyelids fluttered open slowly, and the first thing I saw was his face hovering above mine. The tight lines that had been carved into his faces, eased the moment our eyes met."Calithea." His voice was rough with relief.Before I could even respond, he pulled me against him again, burying my face against his chest."I've been looking everywhere for you," he muttered, tightening his hold around me, not wanting to let go."Do you have any idea how worried I was?"Confusion clouded my mind. "Looking... for me?"I slowly pulled away from him, and only then did I notice the room around us.My heart skipped a bit. "The cabin?" I stared around in disbelief. "What am I doing here?"I gripped my head as the question echoed over and over inside my own mind."I should be the one asking you that," Valen said, watching me cl

    “Spare me, Luna. I will tell the truth!”Everything in the room felt suffocatingly heavy. I clutched the side of my head, the room spinning so violently I felt like I was going to faint. “It wasn’t my intention to incite that rumor," Betty sobbed from the floor. "I only told Rue what I thought I s

    “Look at her,” Zirelle said, her tone dripping with boredom. “You always find a way to make everything about yourself, don’t you, Calithea? The absolute audacity to stand tall while everyone else bows to our new Alpha.”I didn’t say a word. My tongue felt like lead, my eyes locked on the regal form

    Calithea I felt an unexpected tightness in my core, as our position made me completely at his mercy, but it was exactly the kind of reality I needed to completely break through the one I wanted to be free from tonight. “Then please fuck me” I whispered, my voice trembling. His grip loosened, a

    Calithea“What did you say?”His voice was low and rough, as a flicker of shock crossed his dark eyes. He stared down at me as if the question had come out of the blue.“I said kiss me,” I repeated courageously, without batting an eye.But the words had barely left my mouth when he stepped into my
