"Here.." Jenny muttered as she placed a coffee filled mug on the table before sitting right opposite me.

Hector was outside, standing guard like I was meeting with drug dealers. He's taking his job far too seriously.

"Who's that young man standing outside?" Jenny finally asked after staring at him for the umpteenth time.

I took a small sip of the coffee she served before;

"He's the guard Marcus assigned to me." I answered.

Her lips quirked up into a teasing smile; "I see." She whispered but I know there are other things in her head.

"Whatever." I didn't really care about what she was thinking about. As long as she doesn't say it out loud.

"So.. how's the company been faring??" I asked, placing the mug on the table before turning to face her.

She sighed tiredly; "Same old Avery.. the board members are still getting on my nerves. It's so hard to placate them without you here." She complained bitterly.

"With how long you've been acting on my stead, one would think you'd have already got

  • Enchanted by the Alpha    Chapter 146

    The forest was alive with tension. Moonlight filtered through the bare branches, casting jagged shadows across the frost-covered ground. Avery stood in the center of the clearing, breath steady, Lydia coiled tightly beneath her ribs, her senses sharpened to every sound, every movement.Across from her, Liam’s eyes glimmered like molten steel, unblinking, unyielding. Every step he took carried the weight of vengeance and obsession alike. Behind him, Riley’s fists were clenched, her jaw tight, fury radiating from her like fire. And Madison—silent, commanding, resolute—stood at the edge of the clearing, her presence a tether of truth against Avery’s chaos.Avery’s lips curved in a slow, sharp smile. “You think you’ve cornered me,” she said, voice smooth, teasing, dangerous. “You think the truth, your righteous fury, your love and loyalty… can touch me.”Liam moved closer, each footfall precise, deliberate. “You’ve destroyed everything, Avery,” he said, voice low, edged with a dangerous c

    The forest held its breath as Madison emerged from the shadows, the moonlight catching the sharp lines of her face, the intensity of her gaze slicing through the darkness like a blade. Avery froze mid-step, senses flaring. She had been careful, cautious, but this presence—this authority—made her instincts scream louder than ever before.“Enough, Avery,” Madison said, her voice low, unwavering, commanding the silence around them. Every word pressed into Avery like the weight of iron. “It’s time someone told you the truth.”Avery’s lips curved into a small, knowing smile. “Truth? My, Madison… you make it sound so final, so serious. Do tell me—what truth is that?” she asked, voice smooth, teasing, though every muscle beneath her skin was coiled and alert.Madison’s eyes darkened, filled with fire and something more—pain, betrayal, determination. She stepped forward deliberately, her gaze locking onto Avery’s. “You are not and never were a daughter of Benjamin. You never were his child. A

    The forest had shifted again, though no one could have noticed except Avery. Every shadow, every twisted root, every hollow of ice-covered earth had been memorized, mapped, and turned to her advantage. She moved like a phantom, silent, deliberate, a shadow among shadows, each step calculated to lead her hunters exactly where she wanted.She paused briefly in a narrow clearing, her breath puffing white in the frigid air, Lydia coiling tightly in her chest, a reminder of the raw power beneath her skin. Avery’s lips curved into a small, cruel smile. Liam was close—too close—and Riley was relentless. Yet both of them were walking right into the web she had spun.A branch snapped to her right, a soft echo in the night. Avery froze, every muscle taut. Liam. She could feel him before she saw him, his presence like a stone pressing into her chest. His breath came slower now, measured, almost teasing in its patience. He had not yet lost control—he never did—but she could sense the tension buil

    The forest swallowed the moonlight as Avery ran.Branches whipped past her face, tearing at her sleeves, snapping under her feet as she sprinted between the towering pines. Her breath came out in sharp bursts, cold enough to sting her lungs, but she didn’t slow. She couldn’t. Not tonight. Not with the weight of Marcus’s blood still clinging to her thoughts like a curse she could never wash away.She didn’t look back.Looking back meant hesitation.Hesitation meant death.But even without turning, she felt it—felt him—closing in from the shadows behind her.Liam.Alive. Breathing. Hunting.And this time, he wasn’t confused, or wounded, or in denial of what she’d done.He knew.He knew everything.And he wanted her.Not with the desperate devotion he’d once tried to hide, not with the twisted tenderness that had always made Avery’s skin crawl—No.This time Liam wanted her for revenge.Leaves crackled behind her—steady, rhythmic, determined. Not rushing. Not flustered.Tracking.Avery’s

    The night was unnaturally quiet when Avery struck.Marcus never expected it—the betrayal, the shift in her eyes, the calmness in her voice when she finally stepped out of the shadows of their temporary hideout. Hours earlier, he had held her, kissed her forehead, promised her they would escape the chaos together. He believed her when she said she only needed time to heal, to think. He believed everything she whispered, because she knew exactly how to make him believe.That was her greatest strength.Her greatest curse.Avery’s steps were soft as she walked behind him, watching the slow rise and fall of his shoulders as he crouched beside the dying fire. He had been awake for nights, making sure no threat came near them. He never realized the true threat had been beside him all along.Her fingers curled at her sides.He wanted to save me, she thought. But I was never meant to be saved.Marcus sensed something too late. He turned slightly, eyes narrowing. “Avery? You’re awake—”Her powe

    Avery ran.The cold night air slapped against her cheeks as she darted through the trees, branches scratching at her arms, leaves whipping her hair back. Every breath burned, every heartbeat thundered against her ribs, but she didn’t stop—not even for a second. Marcus’s scent trailed behind her, stubborn as always. He was chasing her, following her like he always did, loyal even when he shouldn’t be.She hated how easy it was to pull his strings.The forest swallowed her figure as she sprinted deeper into the shadows, her thoughts spiraling, her pulse rushing with the high of everything she’d done—and everything coming for her.Benjamin was gone.Her father. The man who raised her with ice in his veins and disgust in his eyes.Gone because she made it so.Gone because she couldn’t let anyone control her anymore.Gone because he had pushed too far.And now… now Liam was back.Liam—who she had killed with her own hands. Liam—whose wolf Cain had begged, pleaded, snarled for one more chan
