Liam's POV

I sat on the edge of my bed with my elbows pressed against my knees. The only light in my room was the one coming from the embers of the fire in the hearth, but I felt neither the warmth of the fire nor the joy of the light.

“You’re pathetic.”

The voice rumbled through my head, angry and frustrated. Kai hadn't stopped attacking me ever since the encounter with my father, and his anger was still burning, and feeding mine at the same time. But my anger could never be sustained like his own, mine was always collapsing in the powerful presence of my father.

“I’m not pathetic,” I muttered under my breath, even though the words sounded hollow to me.

“I’m trying my best, Kai. Do you think I don’t want to stand up to him? Do you think I enjoy being treated like some… some powerless puppet?”

“Then stop letting him pull the strings to everything that concerns your life,” Kai snapped with an angry growl that echoed so loudly in my mind that it made me flinch. “You’re the Alpha heir of

  • From Omega's Daughter To Alpha's Daughter   A listening ear 83

    Alpha Rowland's POVThe fire in the hearth had burned very low now, and Caleb sat across from me like a stone statue, patiently waiting for me to unleash my burden as always. He was never one to force words from me, but his silence seemed heavier than questions.I cleared my throat and adjusted myself to a comfortable position. “Okay, Caleb. Let me tell you exactly what has been happening in this pack.”“I’m listening,” He said calmly.I nodded, then began. “It started with Cael going on a hunting trip weeks ago, and he took Mira along with him.”Caleb gave a knowing smile. “Of course he did.”Despite myself, I almost smiled too. “Yes, of course he did. That boy has never listened to me a day in his life.” My voice hardened. “But what they ran into wasn’t just prey… It was a group of rogues.”Caleb straightened in his chair. “Rogues? How come?”“It was surprising,” I replied quietly.He swore under his breath, shaking his head. “That close to our borders?”I nodded grimly. “Too close

  • From Omega's Daughter To Alpha's Daughter   Plotting Siblings 82

    Cael's POVI should’ve known from the way her shoulders tightened that this wasn’t going to be something light. Mira had that look… the one where her mind was made up before she had even opened her mouth, and nothing short of a war would change it.She looked into my eyes, and I saw hers as clear as moonlight, steady and firm even though her pulse was thrumming faintly in her throat.“Cael,” she finally began. “I think it’s really important… for us to go to Pine Shadows.”There it was. The words landed like a pebble that had been dropped into deep water, sending ripples spreading through my chest. Pine Shadows… The name was seldom mentioned in our pack, but she spoke about it like it was salvation.“Are you being serious?” I asked carefully.She was firm in her reply. “Dead serious.”I laughed at the thought, a funny sort of sound that startled even me. “You want us to just stroll into the den of the wolves who have hated us for decades, even banished you under a false accusation, an

  • From Omega's Daughter To Alpha's Daughter   Midnight walk 81

    Cael's POVMira and I took a stroll in the cool night air, something we did often as we both enjoyed the outdoors more than we liked to admit. I walked slowly, adjusting my pace to fall in line with Mira’s. She didn’t complain though… she never did. Mira had that stubborn streak in her that reminded me too much of Father.We walked in silence for a while, enjoying the sound of nocturnal creatures and the coolness of the wind all around us. The moon shone so brightly, and for a moment I was tempted to howl at it. The stroll felt comfortable and easy, with the kind of silence only siblings could share without effort.But Mira broke it, as I knew she eventually would. She always noticed too much, always picking out things that others were likely to overlook.“Who was he?” she asked suddenly in her overly curious voice.I gave her a sideways glance. The moonlight made her eyes sparkle like emeralds, and the furrow in her brow told me that she had been holding in this question for a while

  • From Omega's Daughter To Alpha's Daughter   Revealing the Burdens 80

    Alpha Rowland's POVAt the mention of those words, Caleb became even more serious and looked expectantly at me, waiting for me to spill the burden that was troubling me. “You sound as if there are ghosts roaming around the streets, Rowland, what exactly is happening?”I chuckled after seeing his reaction, but the smile faded off again. “Maybe there are indeed ghosts roaming our lands, Caleb. Do you remember Samantha?”Caleb looked confused for a while, then slowly his memory started recollecting events from a long time ago. He opened his mouth to say something, then closed it back again when the words wouldn't come. Samantha… my secret mate, the Omega that Selene had forced to flee after discovering our affair. It had been a forgotten occurrence, supposedly hidden away by time.“You cannot mean…” Caleb mumbled in disbelief. “Rowland, tell me you’re not talking about your ex mistress…”“I am,” I interrupted in a firm tone. “A girl named Mira appeared here a few weeks ago, claiming to b

  • From Omega's Daughter To Alpha's Daughter   Return of a Brother 79

    Alpha Rowland's POVThe night was quiet, far too quiet for my liking.The entire pack was unsettled, and my people were very watchful, although no one dared to speak their uneasiness aloud. The memory of the rogues slaughtered in their cells was still lingering like a phantom in every corner of the pack grounds, and even I could feel it pressing on me… an invisible weight that kept clawing at the edges of my thoughts.The sound of the pack gates opening drew my attention, and I hurried to the window to see who was arriving. Relief washed over me despite the tension going through me as I saw who it was, Caleb Whitmore… My Beta and best friend.At last.I had sent him on a very important mission for what seemed like forever now, a journey I couldn't trust to any other wolf in my pack. His absence had been necessary, but costly. And every moment since he had been gone, I had felt the hollow of fighting this war alone.I rushed out hastily to meet him, too impatient for him to come and me

  • From Omega's Daughter To Alpha's Daughter   The fury of a scorned Mate 78

    Liam's POVIt was Dahlia.She stood in the doorway with her chin raised, wearing that smug and annoying little smile she always carried when she thought she’d gotten away with something. From the look of her seductive outfit however, it looked as if she had dressed specifically for me, for this sudden intrusion.I didn't find it amusing in any way. There had been no knock or invitation to come in, and certainly no respect.Kai was already getting angry inside me, his usual reaction whenever Dahlia was near me.‘‘Here’s your chance,’’ he snapped. ‘‘Don’t you dare swallow this insult without any form of action… Don’t you dare bend to her manipulation.’’For once, I didn’t argue with him. I simply allowed his anger to flow into my own.“Do you have no sense of manners?” I yelled in a harsh voice that surprised even Kai. “Barging into my chambers as if you own it?”Dahlia was briefly taken aback, then a false look of innocence slowly spread across her face. “I’m your mate, Liam. Do I real
