Kali’s POV

The moment we crossed into Redpeak, fear crashed over me like a tidal wave.

It wasn’t gentle or gradual. It was instant. Suffocating. The kind that sank its claws into my chest and squeezed until every breath felt borrowed. I hadn’t been back in months, and in that time I had let myself believe a foolish thing that distance had weakened this place’s hold on me. I had being so certain, I would never ever step foot into Redpeak again.

I was so wrong.

The land itself felt hostile, the a

  • Enslaved to the Mad Alpha   172: Shield

    Celine's POV Fear still clung to me like damp cloth as I made my way back toward the house. Every instinct screamed that this was a terrible idea. Emmett had ordered me to leave. And judging by the look in his eyes back in the forest, disobeying him today felt about as smart as jumping into a wolf pit wearing raw meat. Still… My feet kept moving. Because Kali was in there. Unconscious. And no matter how frightened I was of Emmett, the thought of leaving Kali alone with him felt worse somehow. Also, I couldn't risk her telling Emmett the truth. I slowed as thehouse came into view through the trees, its tall windows shimmering under the afternoon light. The entire place looked too calm compared to the chaos twisting inside my chest. I lingered near the edge of the shadows for several minutes, making sure Emmett hadn’t doubled back outside. He hadn't. Just distant voices drifting faintly from somewhere deeper inside the house. Finally, I exhaled slowly and slipped toward t

  • Enslaved to the Mad Alpha   171: What do I do?

    Celine's POV Panic shot through me instantly. “What?” I stuttered. Emmett frowned at me, his expression hardening with impatience. The pressure rolling off him felt suffocating, thick with alpha authority and something far more dangerous beneath it. I bowed my head quickly, trying to steady my nerves. “Take me to where you found Kali,” he repeated coldly. “Now.” My stomach twisted. I glanced toward the bed where Kali still lay unconscious, her face flushed with unnatural heat. Even from across the room, I could still remember the sight of those flames swallowing the forest whole around her. Fire. Actual fire. My pulse quickened again. “Who is going to look after Kali if we both leave?” I asked carefully. Emmett’s eyes snapped toward me. The look he gave me made my throat tighten instantly. “Of course, Alpha,” I said quickly. I turned immediately and headed for the door before he could question me further. But just before stepping out, I glanced back once at Kali. Stil

  • Enslaved to the Mad Alpha   170: Furious bright orange and gold

    Kali's POV I walked slowly deeper into the forest, my pulse hammering against my ribs as my eyes darted frantically between the trees. The footsteps. I knew I heard them. Heavy boots crunching against leaves and twigs. Someone had been out there behind the guest house. The sound came again faintly ahead of me. My breath caught. Without thinking, I hurried forward. The footsteps grew fainter with every passing second. Panic flickered inside me and I broke into a run, branches snagging against my sleeves as I chased after the sound. My lungs burned almost instantly, but I kept going. This was crazy. Absolutely crazy. But if I could find whoever it was… Maybe this would finally be useful. Maybe if I discovered something important enough to tell Emmett, then I wouldn't have to do something as crazy as this or drag Celine into any more messed with Kora. My feet pounded harder against the forest floor. Then suddenly Celine flashed through my mind. Her stan

  • Enslaved to the Mad Alpha   169: Intimidating Freaks

    Celine's POV The letter felt strangely heavy in my hand. The way Kora stared at it made it feel like I was holding a live coal fresh from a fire pit. One wrong move and everything would burn. For the first time since sneaking into the room, uncertainty crept into me. Kora wasn’t bluffing. I could see it clearly now in the rigid set of her shoulders and the dangerous stillness in her eyes. If I ran with this letter, she would go straight to Emmett. And that would be a disaster. Not for me. For Kali. My jaw tightened slightly. I hated that thought. Hated that somehow, in the middle of all this chaos, I was actually worried about her. Kali was frustratingly soft, all nerves and trembling, like a rabbit trying to survive among wolves twice its size. Half the time I wanted to shake sense into her. The other half… The other half I wanted to protect her from everyone in this pack. And Kora. Including herself. My fingers curled tighter around the folded paper.

  • Enslaved to the Mad Alpha   168: Footsteps

    Kali's POV I pressed myself tighter against the wall beneath the window, barely daring to breathe. My pulse thundered wildly in my ears as I listened to everything happening inside the room. The rough sound of shuffling footsteps. The sharp edge in Kora’s voice. The dangerous calm in Celine’s replies. I should run. I should leave Celine and get far away before this became an even bigger disaster. But my body refused to move. “What do you think you’re doing?” Kora demanded again. “Sheesh, relax,” Celine replied casually, though I could hear the strain beneath her voice now. “You act like I uncovered state secrets.” “You broke into my room.” “I was looking for something.” “And you found it?” Kora asked coldly. Silence. My stomach twisted. Celine had definitely found something. I carefully lifted my head just enough to peek through the open window. Kora stood near the door, her silver eyes blazing with suspicion. Her hair was slightly messy, like she had rus

  • Enslaved to the Mad Alpha   167: Envelope

    Kali's POVMy eyes widened in shock the moment Celine laid out the plan. “What?” I screeched, my voice cracking with disbelief.Celine shrugged like it was the most obvious thing in the world. “It’s pretty simple, Kali. Either we spy on Kora and find useful information for the Alpha, or you get punished. So…” She tilted her head, giving me a pointed look. “Do you want to get punished? Because of Kora no less?"I paused, my mouth suddenly dry. Of course I didn’t want to get punished. The mere thought of what Emmett might do to me made my stomach twist. Slowly, I bobbed my head in reluctant agreement. "Fine."“Great,” Celine said with a satisfied smile. Then, without missing a beat, she added, “Well, let’s go snoop now.”“Now?” I squeaked, rubbing my arm nervously. “I thought we would go at night, when it's dark there would be less chances of getting caught. What if we get caught?”"At night, Kora would be in her room. Sleeping or doing whatever witches do at night.""How sure are you t

    Kali's POV I stared back at Zara, unsure of what to say. She had this look in her eyes, like she was worried about what I might have seen. Did she know Emmett had a beast in his house? "Um..." I cleared my throat, "I didn't see much." I didn't miss the relief that washed over her featur

    Kali's POV This was it. This was it. My life was officially over. The beast growled. Each growl vibrated through my ribs like a drumbeat from hell. I had never given much thought to how I would die. Well, actually, I have. But I had been so certain that when I died, it would be at the h

    Kali's POV The mansion was eerie quiet and dark. There was no sign of movement either. Was everyone at the mating moon ceremony? Well if that was the case, this works perfectly for me. I can slip in and slip out without being detected. I rubbed my side. The burning sensation had increa
