INICIAR SESIÓN~duncan One month later Everything had changed, everywhere was calm and normal. No fights, everyone was minding their business. Kael and I no longer argued, and at the same time we also no longer spoke. And somehow, that silence hurt worse than conflict. Iris and I were no closer either, it wasn't worse and the same time it wasnt better. Just… stuck in something unresolved, like a sentence left unfinished. She didn’t push me. And I didn’t know how to reach her anymore. It was unlike me, but I just have to let her go. If she wants to be alone, then so be it. Rowan had become increasingly focused on the post on strength, on structure,on the White Wolf lineage, on being Alpha. And that worried me more than I admitted. Because when Rowan focused too much…It usually meant he was preparing for something no on
~ Duncan After iris had talked to me about kael, after she had left me so hard, and also told me not to let her pick between I and kael I didn't know it has gone this far. So yes! I'm going to meet him, because of iris. The door shut behind Rowan,Leaving only silence. Not the peaceful kind. The kind that presses against your chest until you’re forced to breathe differently. Kael didn’t sit immediately, neither did I. We just stood there, two Blackwoods in the same room, like strangers sharing the same bloodline but not the same life. For a moment… I didn’t know where to start,then I spoke.“Sit down.” He didn’t move at first, then slowly, he walked to the couch and sat like it was optional. Like I wasn’t still his father. That stung more than I expected, I exhaled. “You disappeared,” I said quietly. “You kno
~ kaelThe TV was loud, so loud. Alice has increased the volume for the fifth time. She kept saying, it's not loud.“ Then we keep quiet..” I said to her for almost 100 times. “ NO!” She will reply,Suit yourself. Alice was sprawled across the couch like she owned the estate, shouting at the screen. “PASS THE BALL! PASS IT! ARE YOU BLIND?!”I leaned forward slightly, pointing at the screen.“That’s not how football works.”“It is if you’re talented,” she snapped back.I scoffed. “That explains your logic in life.”She gasped dramatically. “Excuse you?”I smiled faintly. “I said what I said.”We weren’t even watching the same thing emotionally,She was cheering for some random player like it was life or death.I was just enjoying annoying her.And she was enjoying being annoyed, It was… weirdly normal.“Your guy is trash,” I said, nodding at the screen.
~ IRIS The room felt too quiet after everything, not peaceful, not healed.Just… the kind of quiet that makes you hear every thought you’ve been avoiding.Duncan stood near the window, arms folded, still carrying that stubborn weight he never knew how to put down.I didn’t even wait for him to speak.“its true?,” I said flatly.He turned slowly.“…true about what?”I let out a short, humorless laugh.“With Calista.”That alone changed the air.His expression tightened slightly, like he already knew where this was going.“Iris…”“No,” I cut him off immediately. “Don’t start with that tone.”Silence.I stepped closer.“You left your injured son, locked him up,” I said sharply, “and them went out with a woman that's not your wife.”Duncan exhaled slowly. “It wasn’t like that.”“Oh?” I tilted my head. “Because from where I stood, it looked exactly like that.”His jaw
~ KAEL Before Alice came in… the room was actually quiet,the kind of quiet that makes you think something is about to explode again.I was still sitting on the bed.Iris was still standing near me, pretending like she wasn’t checking if I was bleeding again.And I was trying very hard not to look at her too much.I was Failing obviously.She sighed softly and tightened the bandage again.“You really don’t know how to sit still, do you?” she muttered.I smirked faintly.“I do. I just choose not to.”“That’s not a skill, Kael.”“It is in my world.”She rolled her eyes, but I saw it.That small almost-smile she tries to hide when she’s not annoyed enough to stay serious.My hand moved before I gave myself the chance to stop it, I caught her wrist.Not tight. Not the way I usually grab things when I’m angry or trying to control the moment. Just… enough to keep her from pulling
~ IRIS The moment we drove into the estate, everything felt… heavier again, Not louder.Not more chaotic, Just heavier.Like the walls themselves remembered everything that had happened and were judging us for coming back.The car barely stopped before Duncan was already there.Standing at the steps, still injured.Still trying to act like he wasn’t.And beside him…Rowan.Calm.Too calm..Like I hadn't just shouted at him.Like I didnt just query him for trying to kill kael.Like he hadn’t just wiped out half a battlefield earlier.We stepped out one by one.Mira stretched her neck slightly. “I need a bed.”Thorne immediately replied, “You need rest.”“I just said that.”“I’m confirming.”Alice looked around dramatically. “If I die young, write songs about me.”“No one is writing songs about your chaos,” I said.“Rude.”Kael was the last to
~Alpha Duncan I ended the call and stared at my phone for a long moment before setting it down.Eunice was angry. I could hear it beneath her carefully chosen words. Good. Let her be. Anger made people careless and Eunice was dangerous only when she felt in control.I remember when we were little,
~ EuniceI didn’t need secrets to want Iris.I never did.People liked to dress it up as jealousy. As rivalry. As some warped extension of my relationship with my brother. They were wrong.I wanted Iris because she didn’t belong to anyone.Not truly.Yes, she was tangled up with my niece now.Emotio
~iris One week.That was all it had been,seven days tucked away inside walls that smelled like safety and power. Seven days where fear didn’t follow me into my sleep. Seven days of quiet laughter, lingering looks, and moments I knew I wasn’t supposed to get attached to.But I did.The suitcase at
~ iris Ky walked down the aisle slowly, her boots quiet against the floor. She stopped at the empty seat two rows ahead of me,then hesitated.Her head tilted slightly.Her eyes met mine again.This time, they widened just a fraction.Recognition.My breath caught.No.It couldn’t be.She smiled.N
