Sapphire’s POV

Whoever designed the Dead Zone had gone overkill with it. The air didn’t just lack magic; it lacked life. Every breath I drew felt like swallowing dry wool, and the silence that hung in the air was so heavy it made my ears ache for the sound of any living thing.

The tension between Kael and I did not help matters. To my last words, he had no reply, and so for the past few minutes—or even hours, I really couldn’t tell anymore—we had sa

    Sapphire’s PovAn hour later, I stood at the top of the dungeon stairs, well aware that Alberto was no longer within the palace walls. He had left with a few men, not explaining what exactly he was off to do, leaving me worried. The way he had handed me his signet ring, like he expected to die on this mission of his—I did not like that.I shook my head. Why did I even care? I should want him dead so that I could finally be free, right? I sighed against the silence, wishing my thoughts would be as still as the air. I glanced around again, half-expecting someone to materialize behind me—by "someone," I meant this "Vane" that Alberto had spoken of. What did he look like? Why was he a threat to me?"You cannot pass, my lady," the guard at the dungeon entrance said as I approached. His voice was firm, and he gazed right into my eyes. I looked down at the signet ring. It was too big for my fingers, so I had threaded it onto a silver chain around my neck, feeling the full weight of its resp

    Alberto’s PovI blinked against the bright light streaking in through the curtains disoriented for a moment. From what I could recall, I was not supposed to be in my room yet. I was sparring with Alberto, then scared stiff by the cold feeling in me before I passed out. How did I get here? And most importantly, what...I glanced at my side in shock, feeling the pads of fingers pressing into my palm. The sight of the owner jolted me into full consciousness. Alberto He was slumped in the armchair beside the bed, still in his tunic from yesterday. Was it just me, or was his sun-warmed skin unusually pale now? His head was tipped back, dark curls clinging to his forehead, slick with sweat.Unlike the last time I saw him resting, he looked absolutely exhausted. "Alberto," I whispered, sitting up, not taking my eyes off him.What happened to him? Just as the question flashed through my mind, I chided myself. He was the Alpha of the entire pack. Of course he was exhausted.Every decision la

    Alberto’s PovI watched her lunge at me, her movements a blur—smooth and determined. Honestly, I was a bit impressed; I hadn’t expected her to actually take up the challenge to fight me. More than half of my men were scared to do so, and yet here she was, making the bold move.I didn’t move until the last possible second. I sidestepped with an ease that I hoped looked more effortless than it felt. Don’t get me wrong, normally Sapphire was no match for me, but my mind was a jagged landscape of thoughts: council threats, border reports, predictions of my brother’s next moves, even fatherhood responsibilities.She attacked again, and all the noise seemed to move to the background, my gaze sharpening on my opponent. If she could keep me grounded, then I would stay with her. I had to give it to her—she was fast, faster than plenty of female wolves I had ever sparred with, and perhaps even a few of the guys. I wonder if that has something to do with the Moon Goddess.She let out a frustra

    Sapphire’s PovI groaned, turning over the page of the book I was reading. I wasn't much of a reader; I’d never brought myself to like art when I was young. So, me reading was a clear sign that something was wrong—and "wrong" being that I was bored out of my skin.I hadn’t seen Alberto in days, and the maidservant he had provided to keep me company was, well, uninteresting. I glanced in her direction, where she was seated on a chair near the bay window, sewing something. She was always either sewing, scrubbing, or cleaning, and I wondered if she really had that much work to do all the time, or if she was just doing it to keep herself busy.I sighed again, returning my attention to the book. My suite felt more and more like a prison every day that passed—a reminder that I had failed my escape mission once again. If this was punishment, it was a mighty good one. Impossibly cruel too. I mean, he won, and he had my friends in custody in his dungeons. What more could he want from me?Aga

    Kael’s PovI leaned my back against the damp masonry wall, counting the rhythms of the torch splutter in the hall. It had been days since I saw the sky. I had no idea how many, or what time of day it was, but from the small window in the hallway, I could see that it was sometime around evening.I hated being confined to a space like this, especially when I was already used to living out in the wild. But what I hated the most was that my mother was separated from me. The moment we got here, they took Elira and I apart, and I would give anything to have an idea of her whereabouts. I doubted if I asked Alberto about it he would give me a response, but I made a mental note to do so the next time he showed up here. Elira had better not been hurt, because if anything happened to her, I would make this whole pack burn—regardless of who was Alpha.Speak of the devil. Right on cue, the sound of measured thuds of feet echoed down the corridor heading my way. I didn’t need to look up to know

  • Hooked Between the Alpha Twins   Chapter 29

    Alberto’s PovThe air was cold in the war room, matching the frost that lingered in my mind from Sapphire's mirror. Only the day before yesterday, I was terrified that I was about to lose her when I heard her screams. Honestly, I was a bit disappointed that there was no one and no immediate threats to find when I entered her room. The evasiveness of this demon was starting to piss me off. I needed something to fight that I could touch—something tangible enough to drive a sword into.What I was most scared of was the probability of the tangible form of this demon being my brother. "Damn it, Gonzalo," I cursed under my breath, shifting my stance. He just had to invite that demon into his body. Will he ever be free and recover from this experience? I shouldn't care; it was his choice not mine. But still, he was my brother—my twin brother."Report, Cedric," I said finally to my Beta. He stood rigidly on the other side of the map. I couldn't count how many times I had come here after the
