Serena's Pov

I didn’t even know when the tears started to fall. One minute, I was tied up like some dog meat in a basement, and the next, the iron door was blown open with a thunderous bang.

And there he was—Damien.

My Damien.

A blur of shadows and raw fury, his face twisted in pure rage as his eyes scanned the room and landed on me. Relief washed over me so fast, I felt like my lungs collapsed and filled all over again. Zayn was right behind him, storming in like a demon at war.

“Damien…” My voice cracked.

“Get your fucking hands off her!” Damien roared, charging like a storm.

Julian didn’t even get the chance to blink before Damien’s fist slammed into his jaw so hard, I heard bones crack. Julian went flying off the floor like he weighed nothing. Good. Serves the bastard right.

Ivy screamed.

“Don’t you fucking move,” Damien growled at her without even sparing her a glance. His steps thundered toward me, and I swear I saw death in his eyes.

Zayn grabbed Damien’s shoulder before he co

    Serena's Pov Cont…“What have you done to my son?!”Vivian’s voice slapped the air harder than her palm did my cheek. My face stung, but my pride burned hotter. I stood there frozen for a second, then something deep in my bones cracked. The kind of crack that doesn’t break you—it frees you.I met her eyes, loud and unflinching. “Don’t you ever lay your hands on me again.”She scoffed. “You turned Damien against his own mother! And now you’re standing here, about to marry your own stepbrother. Have you no shame?!”I flared. “Don’t twist this to fit your delusions, Vivian. Damien was never my brother. I didn’t even know he existed until I came here. So, whatever fantasy of a family you created in your little head doesn’t apply to me.”“You ungrateful brat!” she shrieked, hand raised again.“Touch me,” I dared her, “and I swear, I’ll call the guards and have you dragged out of here like the disgrace you are. I’m not that scared little girl you used to slap around. Try me.”The air thicke

    Damien's POV I stood there, hopeless.Not the kind of hopelessness that meant confusion or anxiety. No. This was a deep-rooted, gut-splitting kind of hopelessness that came from watching something you’ve fought like hell to protect get torn apart in the blink of an eye.Serena.This wasn’t supposed to happen. I thought I had done everything—everything—to make sure her past wouldn’t come back to haunt her. I had buried it so deep, paid off everyone, bought the damn club, wiped clean every trace that could tie her to that old life. But I guess fate wasn’t done playing games with us.At this moment, I hated myself. I regretted planning this wedding tonight. I should’ve waited. Should’ve let her heal first. She was still recovering from being abducted, tied like some damn goat to a chair. She hadn’t even processed that trauma fully. And now this? Public disgrace? From the same people she called family?I turned sharply to Zayn, my voice low but heavy with anger. “Shut it down. Whatever i

    Serena’s Pov The dungeon smelled like old blood and a crushed pride. I could still hear their laughter echoing behind me even as I pressed my back against the cold wall, trying to hide the sting of their words. “Look at her,” one of the girls sneered, her voice soaked in cruel amusement. “The audacity of thinking she could seduce the Mafia King.” Another chimed in, “Just because you’re mated to him doesn’t make you special, sweetheart. Damien is a beast and beasts don’t fall in love—they devour. This should be one of your lessons for daring, only a strong woman like him should marry him” Their cackles bounced off the stone walls, slicing through the little strength I had left and I didn’t fight back. Not this time, I feel defeated and cursed as usual. Maybe my stepmother and sisters were right about being cursed, that nothing good comes my way. I swallowed the lump forming in my throat and kept my voice steady even if my insides trembled as their voices continue to haunt my head

    Damien's Pov The click of my boots echoed sharply against the marble as I walked into the dining hall, flanked by investors in black tailored suits. My jaw was locked, and my fists were clenched inside my pockets. My wolf was restless beneath my skin, pacing, watching and waiting for something I didn't even know as I approached the mansion.I had just sealed the billion-dollar deal. It was a fucking miracle considering how tense the boardroom had been all day. But my voice, my power and my reputation as a married man had gotten us there. Every damn word I spoke carried the weight of blood, sweat, and war. The kind of war that makes lesser Alphas bow.And now, after all that, I was bringing them here—my home. The Pack House in the Syndicate Fang’s fortress. I had promised them a grand meal before the estate tour. Food, wine and a little sprinkle of celebration.But what I walked into wasn't a celebration. It was a chaos of my entire mind.The moment my foot crossed the threshold of th

    SERENA'S POVIvy’s outburst stunned me more than I could admit. It wasn’t the first time she scolded me or talked down at me like I was some stray dog let loose into their purebred kingdom, but this time… it was different. There was venom in her voice, Like she wanted to watch me squirm and bleed all because I carried half of the Mafia Alpha’s power, all because Damien and I were mated, because I was a stripper-turned-mate, an Omega with too much fire in her blood.To them, I was a stain.A filthy human who dared to touch something sacred. Damien.My legs refused to move when I saw him again—Damien. Standing like a dark god among suits and power, his jaw clenched like he’d just walked out of a war. My wolf nearly tore through my skin the second our eyes locked. Her howl roared inside me, echoing in the cage of my ribs and my fingers twitched, aching to touch him. My lips trembled, craving his taste. I missed him so much it felt like I was suffocating.I didn’t even know you could m

    Serena's Pov Cont…..,“Serve the food and stand aside, Do not leave. You will remain here and wait for further orders.”I froze as I was caught off-guard by the raw command in his voice. The guests and Pack elders in expensive suits pretending to be friends glanced at each other and they were amused, others were too bored to care aside from their meal. I could feel their gazes on me like knives dragging down my spine.“Father,” Damien’s voice came sharp, warning. “She’s not a maid but my mate!”“And I’m still your Alpha and your father. Sit down and keep your voice down. You already shamed this family enough by bringing a stripper into our pack,” Alpha Magnus spat, pointing a thick finger at me like I was some stain he couldn’t bleach out of his legacy.I didn’t flinch or even blink. I simply bowed my head and rolled the tray forward, One by one and placed the covered dishes in front of the Alpha, Damien, and the rest of the table. Not once did I lift my head again. I didn’t trust mys

    Damien’s Point of ViewThe clatter of forks against porcelain plates was the only sound echoing through the long, marbled dining hall. It reminded me that even in a room full of powerful men, I was still fucking powerless.I didn’t touch my food because I couldn’t. I was cranky in thoughts of what to do when Serena stood behind me a few minutes ago, her head bowed like a criminal and serving meals to wolves who didn’t deserve to breathe the same air she did.My fists clenched beneath the table and they all saw it. The humiliation I was facing, I can't believe my own father was turning her into a personal servant, my supposed “mate” turned into a fucking server in front of the very investors who once feared my name.And what did I do?Nothing.I sat there like a coward vecause I had to.Because the Pack laws were designed to keep even Alphas like me under leash when it came to family politics.I could smell the smugness from my stepsisters as they elegantly chewed and sipped their wine

    SERENA’S POV My knees scraped the floor as I was dragged in like a criminal. The cold tiles bruised against my skin, but that pain was nothing compared to the ache drilling into my chest. My heart pounded wildly, wondering what on earth made Damien's Father collapse. Damien sat in the room without saying a word or looking at me and it made the room deathly quiet as everyone's eyes were on me. He sat at the end of the long dinner table, his face carved from stone as there was no expression and no flicker of emotion. He stared straight ahead like I wasn’t there looking bloodied, and accused but still trying to hold whatever remained of my dignity together. “I didn’t poison him,” I murmured, just loud enough for him to hear but my voice cracked. “I only served the food… Damien, you know that.” “Don't mention the Alpha's name!” One of the guards twisted my arm and I writhed in pain. “Sorry, Alpha.” But Damien didn't say anything. Zayn’s gaze flicked between the two of us as the

    Damien's Pov It was official because everyone suddenly wanted me dead and they weren’t even hiding it anymore, those greedy, wrinkled old wolves sitting in their damn Elder Council chambers whispering about betrayal and tradition like their bones hadn’t already expired centuries ago. I saw the shift in their eyes, the way their loyalty wavered like candles in a storm.I didn’t trust a single fucking soul anymore.Except two.Zayn, my Beta and Serena.Yeah, my Omega firecracker. The girl who walked into my life with stilettos and secrets and somehow ended up carrying half of my damn power like she was born to wield it. The mate I didn’t ask for… but now the only thing keeping me from tearing this entire coast apart.I was on the edge of war, and I needed blood.I’d just stepped out of the boxing ring when the scent of burning rubber and cheap cologne wafted through the hallway.

    Damien's Pov The nightmares were back.Not because I was weak, no. I’ve survived silver bullets, assassination attempts, rogue ambushes, and more betrayals than I can count. But this? This was different. It was like my past was dragging me by the throat and throwing me back into the fire I thought I’d buried a long time ago.The last time I had that dream, I was fourteen and half-dead, my ribs cracked like twigs and my wolf and was too young to shift making me too scared to fight. My mother stood at the door and only looked back once. Just once and then left me there… left me for dead. The only thing that saved me was the hatred that filled my chest afterward. The only thing that’s kept me alive till now.But since Serena came into my life like a chaotic, mouthy and impossible character—I’d been too distracted to dream. Maybe she kept the ghosts at bay without even realizing it.But they were back and I had no time for ghosts now.I mounted my bike and drove down to the Silver Elites

    Serena’s POVI was so confused and scared, this man hates my guys and Part of me wondered if he was going to accuse me of another scandal, maybe threaten to throw me in the dungeon again for being too mouthy or too stubborn or too… me.I mean, it wouldn’t be the first time a powerful man tried to silence me.Especially not in this damn Pack.I was already hanging on by a thread in this household, being a stripper-turned-mate was scandal enough. That alone had already made half the Pack elders sharpen their knives behind my back.But this moment alone with Magnus, in a hallway echoing with old secrets—it felt like something else entirely.Something colder.“I want food,” Magnus said suddenly, voice low but firm, like it was an order carved in stone.I blinked. “Excuse me?”He didn’t even flinch. “I said I want food, Serena, Prepared by you.”I was almost sure I misheard.“Would you like me to get the maids to maybe prepare it?”“No.” It was one word, that was sharp and final which made

    Serena’s POVThe nightmares didn’t start slowly because they came like a damn storm like it was meant to be there all this while and I was just blind about it.First, it was the way Damien’s jaw clenched in his sleep and how his fingers curled tightly into the sheets. Then it was the whisper of a name he never spoke aloud.His mother’s.I wasn’t supposed to hear it but I did, every night. A faint whisper of mother leaving his lips and how scared he was like he was falling apart and she was the only one to Keep him sane.I never expected Damien to have nightmares, especially not him.Not the Alpha who tore men apart like they were paper but he did and they were worse than anything I had imagined.Every night for the past three days, he tossed and turned beside me, his breaths were ragged and his jaw clenched so tightly that I thought he’d shatter his teeth. At first, I thought it was just stress of the few days we had encountered, the attack, fire, Vincent, Lilith and me.But then… I s

    Serena's Pov The silence in the car was thicker than smoke. Damien sat beside me, blood dried around his temple, his suit ruined, but somehow… he still looked like sin dressed in Armani.I could feel his power pulsing through me.It wasn’t just adrenaline or rage. It was real, Raw and alive. My body hummed with it, like a second heartbeat that wasn’t mine. And every time I looked at him, I could feel his pain, his fear and his obsession with protecting me, even when I didn’t ask for it.“You’re quiet,” he muttered, glancing over at me as the SUV sped down the road, leaving the burning warehouse behind us.“I just kicked a grown man off a rooftop,” I whispered, staring out the window. “I don’t think there’s a manual for this.”Damien chuckled under his breath, but it wasn’t playful, it was dark. “He deserved worse.”I turned to him slowly. “So this is what it feels like… being one of you.”“You’re not just one of us,” he said, eyes locking with mine. “You’re mine.”There was something

    Damien's Pov I yelled at Vincent and he smirked, pinned Serena to his body.Her hands were tied and her lips were trembling with her eyes wide and a goddamn gun was pressed to her head.I took a nasty step to meet him but that same moment, someone slammed a pipe into the back of my knee and I went down.A scream ripped out of her throat and I felt enraged not from the stab but where when stabbed me because it would be difficult to heal. I tried to get up, but another strike came and my ribs cracked. “Tsk, tsk, Alpha Damien. Look at you. On your knees for a woman.” Vincent smirked with smile whispering into Serena's ears.“I’ll kill you,” I growled, spitting blood on the floor.He chuckled. “You said that already.”“Touch her again, and I’ll skin you alive,” I snarled in pain, looking for anything to distract him while it fucking slowly heals.“Such a devotion,” he smirked, then waved to one of his men.The guy stepped forward with a knife.I lunged, even on my knees and half-broken

    Damien's Pov We had barely reached the warehouse when the wind carried the smell of smoke long before we saw the flames.Something felt off even before I left and I hated it. That eerie, cold twist in my gut. It wasn’t even about the fire. It wasn’t the silence on the line when I tried to call Serena for the fourth damn time. It was like my soul was pulling me in the opposite direction. I clenched my jaw, scanning the road as we drove. My wolf was restless, pacing under my skin, whispering her name like it was the only word left in the universe.I suddenly pulled the brakes hard.“Zayn,” I muttered, gripping the wheel tightly. “You need to go back.”Zayn’s brows pulled together. “We’re almost there, Damien. Don’t start.”“I’m serious. Go back.”“Why? So you can walk into hell alone? No.” He crossed his arms with his jaw firm.“Zayn—”“No,” he snapped. “This attack is mine too. You keep pushing me back like I’m some damn coward. I’m your Beta, not your bodyguard.”I slammed the door o

Look who's back."I turned to find my stepsisters, Elena and Sloane, emerging from the shadows of the corridor. They'd been suspiciously quiet all day, and now I understood why—they'd been waiting and plotting theirs as if it would be any different."Where have you two vipers been hiding?" I asked, instinctively taking a defensive stance.Elena smirked, tossing her long blonde hair over her shoulder. "Watching you ruin everything, as usual. You really are a witch, aren't you? Poor Damien isn't even thinking straight anymore because of you.""Fuck off," I growled. "I don't have time for your games.""Oh, we can't do that," Sloane purred, stepping closer. Her sleek black hair framed a face that could have been beautiful if not for the cruelty in her eyes. "Not when you've made such a terrible mistake.""

His eyes glowed amber as his wolf pushed to the surface, teeth elongating as he snarled in my face."What the fuck are you doing staying with Damien when we clearly had an agreement?" he growled, his breath hot on my face.I pushed back against his chest, refusing to be intimidated by his silky tantrums and fake concerns.. "It wasn't an agreement, Vincent. I was forced to say those things because of the situation and you freaking know that."His laugh was cold and hol
