CHAPTER FIFTEEN

Genesis

---

The moment Kael said it—

I knew.

---

Someone asking for me.

Not the Alpha.

Not the pack.

Me.

---

There was only one reason that would happen.

Only one kind of person who would be reckless enough to step into enemy territory and demand to be seen.

---

“They shouldn’t be here,” I said quietly.

---

Lucien’s gaze didn’t leave mine.

“Yet they are.”

---

A pause.

Then—

“You recognize who it might be.”

---

Not a question.

---

I didn’t answer.

    CHAPTER SIXTEEN Lucien --- The cells were quieter after he left them. Not because the threat was gone. Because it had settled. Deeper. More dangerous. --- Lucien didn’t speak as he walked. Kael followed at a distance. Genesis stayed close. Closer than before. Not by accident. --- “You’re quiet,” she said. --- He didn’t look at her. “I’m thinking.” --- “A dangerous habit.” --- His gaze flicked to her briefly. Sharp. --- “Not as dangerous as secrets.” --- A pause. Then— “Or half-truths.” --- Silence stretched between them as they climbed the final set of stairs and stepped back into the main level of the estate. --- The guards were moving faster now. More alert. More tense. --- Good. They should be. --- “They’re not bluffing,” Genesis said quietly. --- Lucien stopped. Turning slightly to face her. --- “I know.” --- “No,” she said. “You don’t.” --- His eyes narrowed. --- “Then explain it.” --- She stepped closer. Not cautious. Not he

Then— “You recognize who it might be.” --- Not a question. --- I didn’t answer. Because the truth was already written all over my face. --- Lucien turned. “Take us to the cells.” --- Kael didn’t hesitate. “This way.” --- The walk felt longer than it should have. Not because of distance. Because of anticipation. --- Every step echoed too loudly. Every breath felt too sharp. --- I had spent years preparing for this. For confrontation. For revenge. For the moment the past finally caught up to me. --- I just hadn’t expected it to happen like this. Not here. Not

    CHAPTER FOURTEEN Lucien --- The message wasn’t meant for him. That much was clear. --- Lucien stood in the lower corridor long after the guards had secured the area, long after Kael had ordered the unconscious man carried away, long after the door had been inspected and reinforced. His gaze remained fixed on the carved words. Not because he couldn’t read them. But because he didn’t like what they implied. --- “You chose the wrong side.” --- Not a threat. Not a warning. A judgment. --- “They’re not just targeting you,” Kael said from behind him. Lucien didn’t turn. “I know.” --- A pause. Then— “She’s part of this.” --- That wasn’t new. But hearing it spoken out loud shifted something. Made it harder to ignore. --- “She’s connected,” Lucien corrected. Kael stepped closer. “That’s not the same thing.” --- No. It wasn’t. --- Lucien finally turned. His gaze sharp, controlled, but carrying something deeper now. Something darker. “And yet, she’s still he

    CHAPTER THIRTEENGenesis---Sleep did not come easily.Not anymore.Not here.---The estate had settled into a false quiet, the kind that felt too controlled to be natural. Guards moved more frequently now. Doors that once stood open were closed. Shadows felt heavier, stretched tighter across the walls.War had not been declared.But it had arrived.---I stood near the window in my room, watching the distant tree line where darkness swallowed everything beyond it. My reflection stared back at me in the glass, faint and distant.Composed.Unbothered.A lie I had perfected years ago.---“They’re moving faster than I expected.”The words slipped out under my breath.Not fear.Not panic.Assessment.---The breach.The bodies.The markings.---They weren’t testing anymore.They were advancing.---A soft knock broke the silence.---I didn’t turn.“Come in.”---The door opened.Closed.Footsteps followed.Measured.Controlled.---Lucien.---Of course.---“You didn’t rest.”His vo

    CHAPTER TWELVE Lucien --- Control was not something Lucien lost. It was something he maintained. Built. Enforced. --- But control was also something that could be challenged. Not easily. Not often. And never without consequence. --- Standing in the east courtyard, staring at the blood that had soaked into his stone, Lucien understood one thing with absolute clarity. This was no longer a breach. This was an invasion. --- “Clear the body.” His voice cut through the silence, sharp and final. The guards moved immediately, careful, efficient. No hesitation. No wasted motion. They knew better. --- “Kael.” His Beta stepped forward. “Yes, Alpha.” “Triple the inner patrols. I want eyes on every corridor, every entrance, every blind spot.” “It’s already being reinforced.” “Reinforce it again.” A pause. Then— “I want them afraid to breathe without being seen.” Kael nodded once. “It will be done.” --- Lucien’s gaze shifted. To Genesis. She hadn’t moved. Hadn’t

    CHAPTER ELEVEN Genesis War never announced itself the way people expected. There were no grand declarations. No roaring battles at the gates. No warning that gave you time to prepare. War began quietly. With a single body. And the understanding that it would not be the last. The moment Kael spoke those words, the air in the room changed. Not tension. Not suspicion. Something deeper. Something final. “Where?” Lucien asked. His voice was calm, but I felt it. That shift beneath the surface. The Alpha in him rising, cold and absolute. “In the east courtyard,” Kael replied. “Near the inner gardens.” Too close. Far too close. Lucien didn’t look at me. Not this time. “Stay here,” he said. An order. Sharp. Final. “No.” The word left my mouth before I could stop it. Not impulsive. Instinct. Both men turned toward me. Kael’s expression tightened. Lucien’s darkened. “You don’t give me orders,” I continued, my voice steady. “Not when this involves something connected
