Ryker’s P.O.V

By dawn, no one in Ironclaw was sleeping, not really, people rested, they moved, they obeyed orders. But sleep?

Sleeping requires safety and safety had left the moment I found Covenant steel beneath my mate’s bed.

I stood alone in the war room, the blade marker on the table in front of me. It was small, simple, but deadly.

Funny how betrayal rarely looked dramatic. Sometimes, it was just a piece of steel and the realization that someone had opened your doors from the inside. Cad

  • Fated to the Alpha who killed my sister    CHAPTER 53

    Ryker’s P.O.V By dawn, no one in Ironclaw was sleeping, not really, people rested, they moved, they obeyed orders. But sleep?Sleeping requires safety and safety had left the moment I found Covenant steel beneath my mate’s bed.I stood alone in the war room, the blade marker on the table in front of me. It was small, simple, but deadly. Funny how betrayal rarely looked dramatic. Sometimes, it was just a piece of steel and the realization that someone had opened your doors from the inside. Caden stood across from me, arms folded, watching me with the expression of a man deciding whether honesty would start a fight or probably end it.“Spill whatever you have,” I told him.“If we move too fast, we destroy trust inside the pack.” he analysed, his jaw pulled together. “If we move too slow, Zara dies.” I countered. “Lucian had access.” Caden uttered shortly after a pause, a quick breath released through his nose.“I know.” I answered briefly, staring at the blade intently.“He also kne

  • Fated to the Alpha who killed my sister    CHAPTER 52

    Zara's P.O.V Grief changes shape. The cruelest part is that you think you understand it—that it is one thing, one wound, one clean ache. But grief is a liar, it evolves, it waits. It becomes new monsters when the old ones die.I sat alone in the outer courtyard long after Elias left, staring at nothing and everything. The moon hung low over Ironclaw’s stone walls, silver and indifferent. I hated that the world kept moving. Birds would still sing tomorrow, guards would still patrol, people would still laugh somewhere, and my entire life had just been rewritten.My sister was not lost in chaos, not collateral, not some tragic casualty of war. She had died trying to save me because she knew, because she saw what the Covenant intended, because she chose me.The memory came without warning. Her hands in my hair, careful but patient. Braiding it before dawn while I complained about waking early. I was sixteen, too angry, too sure of myself. She had laughed softly and said, not everyone who

  • Fated to the Alpha who killed my sister    CHAPTER 51

    Zara's P.O.V Some truths arrive like light, clear, clean, and merciful. This one came like a knife. Slow, precise, and meant to hurt. I stood in the council chamber beside Ryker, every nerve sharpened, every instinct screaming that whatever walked through those doors would not bring peace.Across from us, Alpha Darius stood silent, arms folded, his expression carved from old stone. Caden was near the far wall, Lucian near the windows. No one relaxed which was soothingly good because neither did I.The Covenant messenger waited outside alone and unarmed. Which somehow made him more dangerous. A man who walks into enemy territory without fear either knows something… or is the weapon himself.The guard opened the doors and he stepped inside. He was someone I knew, the recognition hit so hard my breath caught. Not because I knew his name but because I knew his face. He is older now, sharper, but unmistakable “Commander Elias.”One of the men who trained me, who taught me how to kill. One

  • Fated to the Alpha who killed my sister    CHAPTER 50

    Zara’s P.O.V Silence can be louder than shouting. That was the first thing I learned standing there inside our chamber, the fire was low, the walls were too close, Ryker was looking at me like he was trying very hard not to become something dangerous. And maybe I was doing the same because the truth was finally in the room.Cassian. Everything about the training, the lies, and my sister. Somehow, I would have preferred screaming. At least, screaming was clean.Ryker stood near the fire, arms folded, jaw tight enough to crack stone while I remained near the door maintaining the distance which was instinctively necessary. Neither of us moved nor looked away. Finally, his voice came painfully low and controlled. “Did you ever plan to tell me?”Not why, or how long and somehow, it hurt more because betrayal wasn’t always in the act. Sometimes, it lived in the decision. The choosing. Every night I had walked away, every silence I had protected, and every lie I had dressed as caution. I

  • Fated to the Alpha who killed my sister    CHAPTER 49

    Zara's P.O.V Secrets don’t stay buried, they don’t stay quiet, they wait patiently. And eventually, they come back with teeth. I should have told him about Cassian, about the training, about the way the power felt less like a monster and more like something learning my name.I should have told him. Instead, I stood in the eastern ruins again, moonlight cutting silver across broken stone, waiting for the one man Ryker would never forgive me for trusting.Cassian emerged from the shadows like he belonged to them. Maybe he did. “You’re late,” he said.“You always say that like I care.” I said, arms folded.He gave a faint smile, a little dangerous progress because familiarity was its own kind of trap. He stepped closer, studying me.“You fought with him.” he uttered, which wasn't meant to be a question to begin with. “Do you have actual surveillance powers, or are you just annoyingly observant?” I asked, sparing an eye roll.“You carry tension like a weapon.” he countered, which sounde

  • Fated to the Alpha who killed my sister    CHAPTER 48

    Zara's P.O.V Once you start lying, the worst part isn’t the lie, it’s how quickly it becomes a routine. How easily your mouth learns the shape of omission, how naturally guilt begins to live beside you and I hated that.I hated the fact that I could stand beside Ryker; feel the warmth of him, the certainty of him and still keep something this large buried beneath my ribs. But fear was a persuasive thing and right now, fear was winning.The truth was simple and clear: If I stopped training with Cassian, I risked losing control. If I told Ryker, I risked losing trust. Somehow, both felt like losing him.I stood in the training grounds just after sunrise, blade in hand, trying to let my movement overshadow my thought.I engaged in practice of steel clash, taking quick and controlled breaths in between, and learning the perfect footwork. I engaged in this repeatedly, and the rhythm helped until it didn’t. Until the scar pulsed once, sharp enough to break focus.My grip slipped as the bla
