Alpha Atticus Point of View still

Yeah, give the King all the credit in the world.

The man knew exactly how to make my life a living hell. He knew how to wage a slow war on my mind, how to grind my hope into dust, and how to drive me to the very edge of my sanity.

The hours did not just pass, they were a slow descent into a living grave.

They were eating at me, eroding my patience and will. Days bled into weeks, each one a cold, dark blade that scraped against my sanity inside this unforgiving underground cell, where every moment felt like a hundred years. The absence of light was a choking pressure, a constant reminder of how far I had fallen.

Four stone walls and a small hatch, through which a meal was slid twice a day, this was my entire world.

There were no other prisoners to talk to, only a suffocating, deathly silence that pressed in on me like a physical burden. The o

    "And you? Where are you traveling to?" The Alpha's probe was the million-dollar question.I admit, I had bought my ticket in a frenzied, last-minute search, looking for the farthest destination from America, a continent where Atticus could easily reappear before me. His imprisonment in the Kingdom was meant to be secure, but I also knew what he was capable of. A man who had more than once effortlessly escaped a maximum-security prison, a cage built for monsters, could do it again. I had to assume he would. The Alpha still looked at me, a slow, knowing smile spreading across his face as he observed my hesitation. "The flight we're both on is going to Latin America," he informed me. "But if you truly want to be untraceable, run from the ghosts in your life, I suggest you come with me on my private jet. No customs checks, just you, me, and the pilot. Completely off the grid." My head snapped u

  • Four Times Rejected, Destined for The Throne   Chapter 89 – A Shadowed Path

    After an emotional farewell to Jor, the long drive back to the villa felt steeped in a suffocating silence. The moment I stepped out of the car, the warm, salty air that had once felt so welcoming now carried a chilling sense of desolation. I stood on the sprawling terrace, a place where Atticus and I had shared so many nights, and the beauty of the scene, the gentle, rhythmic lapping of the river against the shore and the soothing green expanse of the forest, was now a cruel mockery. This house, this life, had been a lie. A beautiful, meticulously crafted lie. My time here felt like a vivid, all-consuming dream, intense and fleeting. It was in this very house that my pups had been conceived, in a bed that had felt like a sanctuary of love. But the central figure in that dream, the man I had believed in so completely, was not who he seemed. The Hawk, Atticus, was a liar, a betrayer, a murderer.

  • Four Times Rejected, Destined for The Throne   Chapter 88 – A Toast to the Future

    This last encounter with the Beta, and his warning about his pack’s potential investigation, left no room for hesitation. I had to leave. Not after more restless night of weighing consequences or hoping for a shift in fate, I had to disappear, quietly and completely, before Atticus knew about the new lives in me. The Beta would find him. Of course he would. He’d tell him everything, that I knew who he truly was, that I’d uncovered the identity he’d buried beneath his mask and charm, that I’d seen through the lies he spun so effortlessly. I didn’t know the full story behind his imprisonment, and maybe I never would, but I knew what he was capable of. Axel’s death had already proven that. Axel, my first love, the one whose absence still felt like a wound that refused to close. Atticus had taken him from me, and with that act, he had severed any possibility of redemption. I hated him. I hated the memor

  • Four Times Rejected, Destined for The Throne   Chapter 87 – A Forced Hand

    The sound of sharp claws scrambling rapidly over the stone wall shattered my fragile peace. I strained my senses, desperately trying to pinpoint the scent of the approaching visitor to prepare myself for either a friend or a foe. The sound was too quick, too efficient, for a simple animal. My heart hammered against my ribs, a familiar beat of dread, as the noise grew closer, ascending the side of the building with unnatural speed. Before I could even identify what I might be dealing with, a massive, muscular wolf appeared on the ledge before me, his powerful physique taking up what felt like the entire space of the balcony. He was a high-ranking, I knew instantly. His sheer size and commanding build had a strange familiarity, a resemblance to the Lycans I had met just yesterday. His presence radiated authority, but it was tinged with an undercurrent of desperation that I couldn't place.

  • Four Times Rejected, Destined for The Throne   Chapter 86 – A Glimpse of Happiness

    Anna’s Point of View still It was already a small miracle that Jor and I were able to temporarily push our personal problems to the background during Amy's Luna and mating ceremony. Joy and reverence pulsed through the air, vivid and alive, so unlike the quiet storm of unease tightening in my gut. The ceremony itself had been a beautiful, sacred affair. Held in a grand clearing nestled at the edge of the Crescent Moon territory, the space was adorned with twisting vines, delicate white flowers, and lanterns that cast a soft, ethereal glow as dusk fell. The entire pack was in attendance, their faces radiating happiness for their new Luna. Amy looked breathtakingly beautiful in a gown that shimmered like moonlight, and the love in Henrich's eyes as he spoke his vows was so pure it was almost blinding. The ceremony was a testament to the strength and beauty of the mate bond, and for a few precious hours, I al

  • Four Times Rejected, Destined for The Throne   Chapter 85 - A Pact of Two

    "Jor, is it Manager Andrew?" I asked, a thin veil over the panic in my own mind. "Girl, you're in big trouble. If his wife finds out about this, you're going to be in a world of hurt!" My words were a desperate attempt to deflect attention, to get a momentary stay of execution for myself. What explanation did I have for my friend for keeping my relationship with the Hawk a secret? And how could I possibly confess that I had been deceived and fallen in love with my fated mate's murderer? I knew she would be so disappointed in me, I didn't know if my actions could be forgiven or if our friendship could survive this. Jor's face cracked with naked emotion, her shoulders slumping in defeat. Her eyes began to well with tears, and a deep sob escaped from her chest. The mask she had been wearing finally shattered, revealing the deep pain underneath. "Anna, my life is a complete mess," she confessed, thick with emo
