Selene's POV.

After Killian had left, I let out a long breath I didn’t realize I was holding.

What the hell was that?

I had acted like some emotional, unstable fool all because of a dream. A dream!

I actually touched his face, ran my hand through his hair like some desperate girl in love. What was wrong with me?

It was that dream. That twisted vision. I really thought he was dead or in danger. And the way he screamed, turned to ash… it felt real.

Dr. Javier came over and told me I could be discharged.

He said that once Carmen confirmed the room was ready, they’d move me there, to the space Killian had assigned for me. I would stay there until I fully recovered.

Great. I recover fully… and then what? I go back to sweeping floors and cleaning cobwebs?

I sighed and turned my face toward the ceiling. The sterile white tiles were beginning to feel too familiar.

After a while, the door creaked open, and Carmen stepped in. Ella was behind her.

My eyes met Ella’s, and I blinked.

  • MARKED BY THE ALPHA'S CURSE   RELIEF

    Killian's POV.I didn’t want to be anywhere else but here, alone in my chambers, alone. The last ten days had drained me more than any war, any battle, any fight I had faced before. There was something about helplessness that chewed at your bones and left your soul bare.I barely stepped outside. Ronan checked in from time to time, giving me reports, updates, things I should have cared about. But I couldn’t bring myself to listen. My mind always drifted… back to Selene.I visited her every day. Once in the morning, again before dusk. Sometimes, I stood by her bedside for hours, just watching her sleep–if you could call it that. Her stillness wasn’t peaceful. It was haunting.Dr. Javier couldn’t give me an answer. Every time I asked, it was the same shrug of uncertainty. “We wait” he said. Easy for him to say.Now I was lying there, with one arm over my eyes, staring at the ceiling like it would give me answers. Then, I heard a knock at the door.I groaned. For the love of the moon,

  • MARKED BY THE ALPHA'S CURSE   AWAKE

    Selene's POV.My eyes flew open.The first thing I saw was a white ceiling. I blinked and blinked again.My vision was blurry, my throat felt dry, my limbs weak.I turned my head slowly, let out a groan.Machines beeped softly nearby. I was lying on a soft bed. My skin felt cold, there were tubes connected to my hand. I recognized the place immediately.A hospital. My heart pounded, I’m alive!The next thing I knew, I saw two pairs of eyes staring down at me.I blinked a little. The light above me was too bright. My vision was foggy and my mind even foggier. Carmen?Kelvin?It felt like my brain was stitched together with strings barely holding it.But slowly… things came back.The blurred edges sharpened and their faces became clearer.Carmen’s eyes widened, glossy with tears, and then her voice rang out.“Oh my gosh, Selene, you’re awake!”Her hands flew to her mouth as she gasped, her whole body trembling with relief.Kelvin let out a breath like he’d been holding it for a century

  • MARKED BY THE ALPHA'S CURSE   CHOOSE

    Selene's POV.I felt funny. Not in a bad way, just… different. Like I’ve stepped into someone else’s body.I heard… twinkling? The faintest chime of bells. And something else, the ruffling of leaves, the gentle drip of water, like a stream nearby.My eyes fluttered open.I was floating. I felt weightless in a glowing river that shimmers like stardust. The water felt warm and alive like I was being cradled.Above me hung the moon, impossibly large, casting a silver light that blankets everything. The trees nearby glowed faintly, their leaves sparkling like they’ve been dipped in moonstone.I blinked again and slowly sat up, and I realized I was barefoot.My toes touched the water, but no ripples form. I was wearing a white gown flowing and smooth, it's stitched from silk I’ve never owned. Suddenly, I heard a thousand voices, or maybe just one echoing endlessly."Selene..."I clutch my chest. I didn't feel afraid but I couldn't control my legs. They started moving on their own. Not

  • MARKED BY THE ALPHA'S CURSE   SEEING THROUGH HER LIES

    Valerie's POV.I arrived at Shadowfang Pack in the blink of an eye, stepping out of my portal with ease. The swirl of magic faded behind me as I stood tall with the wind brushing gently against my skin. I inhaled deeply, the air here still had that familiar scent of power.I smiled.My heels clicked against the stone path as I began to walk, my hips swaying deliberately, each step filled with purpose. The long, tight dress I wore hugged my body in all the right places, and the slit that ran high up my thigh swayed with every movement. A few maids passed by and froze, obviously surprised to see me.Some bowed immediately. Others stared for a second too long before quickly lowering their heads.Good. At least they remembered their place.I caught the eye of a young guard standing post at one of the archways and stopped in front of him. He straightened up so fast I almost chuckled."You” I said sweetly. "Where’s Killian?"He cleared his throat, his eyes not quite meeting mine. "At t

  • MARKED BY THE ALPHA'S CURSE   YOU'RE OBSESSED

    Killian's POV.After the maid—Jade dropped dead like that, I had immediately ordered her body taken to the infirmary. I told them to get specialists, alongside Javier. I wanted them to run an autopsy. Every damn test they had. Because the way she died… it wasn’t normal.There were no bullet wounds. No knife marks. No bruises. Nothing. She didn’t faint. Her neck actually snapped right there in front of us. Like someone twisted it clean with invisible hands.That meant someone was watching, or listening or maybe even both.And the moment she was about to say the name of the maid who told her to give Selene that plate, she just... died.The killer had to be near. They had to be in the court.I sat back down on my throne, my elbows on the armrest, one hand rubbing the back of my neck. My foot tapped hard against the stone floor. I could feel my anger crawling up my spine and boiling in my chest.My eyes drifted to Lovena, who was sitting quietly off to the side. She looked so… sad. H
