Jason's heart hammered against his ribs as he stared at the dark outline of Ivan's massive form blocking his doorway. The Russian alpha's presence filled the room like a storm cloud, heavy and threatening. Jason could barely make out Ivan's face in the darkness, but he didn't need to see it to know the alpha was smirking.

"Why are you here?" Jason forced his voice to remain steady, though it came out smaller than he intended. "What do you want?"

Ivan stepped further into the room, his movements predatory and deliberate. Jason caught the glint of white teeth in the darkness as Ivan's smirk widened.

"I don't follow rules, little wolf," Ivan said, his accent thick with amusement. "I make them."

The door clicked shut behind Ivan with an ominous finality. Jason heard the bolt slide home, trapping them both inside. His mouth went dry.

"Breaking into other people's dorms is against school rules," Jason said, hating how weak the words sounded even to his own ears.

Ivan laughed, a low, rumblin

  • Masked Desire   Chapter 91

    Avalon's POVI don't wait to hear more of my father's speech. The sight of Jason trapped in that glass prison, the terror in his eyes, the way Ivan is being held back by half a dozen guards—it all crystallizes into one burning certainty. This has to stop. Now.I push back through the crowd, ignoring the whispers and stares that follow me. My feet carry me toward the dormitory with desperate purpose. There's only one person who can end this nightmare, only one person whose confession could free Jason from my father's machinations.Kaelen.The door to his room is still unlocked when I reach it. He's exactly where I left him, sitting on the floor with his back against the wall, still pale and shaken from our earlier confrontation. The scattered papers and evidence are still spread across his desk like accusations.He looks up when I enter, his amber eyes widening with fear. "Avalon, I—""Shut up," I snap, pulling the folded paper from my pocket. "Your father asked me to give you this."I

  • Masked Desire   Chapter 90

    Avalon's POVThomas Hillson leads me into his study, gesturing for me to take a seat in one of the leather chairs by the fireplace. The room smells of old books and pipe tobacco, comforting in a way that reminds me of what a real father should be like."Tea?" he offers, but I shake my head."This isn't a social call, Mr. Hillson. I need to tell you what your son has done."His expression grows serious as he settles into the chair across from me. "I was afraid you might say that. Kaelen has been... different lately. Secretive. Angry."I tell him everything. The fabricated evidence, the bribes to council members, the orchestrated public humiliation of Jason. Thomas's face grows paler with each revelation, his hands gripping the arms of his chair until his knuckles turn white."My God," he whispers when I finish. "I knew he was ambitious, but this... this is monstrous.""He destroyed an innocent person's life to try to win Lord Ravenscrest's approval," I say, leaning forward. "And he nea

  • Masked Desire   Chapter 89

    Avalon's POV I can smell Kaelen's scent even before I reach his dorm room door. The rage burning in my chest makes my hands shake as I turn the handle. Of course it's unlocked—he's always been too trusting, too naive to think anyone would come for him. Not anymore. The door slams open, and Kaelen looks up from his desk in shock. Papers are scattered everywhere—photos, documents, what looks like communication records. Evidence of what he's been doing. "Avalon? What are you—" I don't let him finish. In three quick steps I'm across the room, my hand wrapped around his throat, lifting him from his chair and slamming him against the wall. His amber eyes go wide with terror as my claws extend, pressing into the soft skin of his neck. "What have you done?" I snarl, my voice barely recognizable through my fury. "What the hell have you done, Kaelen?" "I... I can't breathe..." he gasps, his hands clawing at my arm. "Good. Maybe you'll understand how Jason felt when your lies suffocated

  • Masked Desire   Chapter 88

    Ivan's POVI carry Jason to the nearest empty room I can find—a small office in the administration building. The moment I close the door behind us, I can smell how intense his heat has become. The stress and humiliation triggered it fully, and now he's caught in the grip of something his body can't control."I'm sorry," he whispers against my chest, his voice broken. "I'm so sorry, Ivan. My parents, the heat, all those people—""None of this is your fault," I tell him fiercely, setting him down gently but keeping my arms around him. "None of it, Jason. Not your parents' crimes, not the heat, not the way those people treated you."He's shaking, overwhelmed by everything that just happened. The heat is making him hypersensitive, every emotion amplified beyond normal levels."They all think I'm some kind of freak," he says, tears streaming down his face. "Maybe they're right. Maybe I am broken, defective—""Stop." I cup his face in my hands, making him look at me. "You are not broken. Yo

  • Masked Desire   Chapter 87

    Jason's POVIvan and I walk toward the administration building, my stomach churning with nerves. I thought this would be a simple meeting with the Faculty Advisory Board—maybe a dozen people at most. But as we get closer, I can hear voices. Lots of voices."That sounds like more than just the board," Ivan says, his brow furrowing.We round the corner and my heart stops. The large auditorium is packed. Students, parents, faculty, board members—it looks like half the supernatural community is here. This isn't a meeting. This is a trial."I can't do this," I whisper, stopping in my tracks.Ivan turns to me, concern filling his silver eyes. "Jason, what's wrong?"But it's not just the crowd that's making me panic. There's something else happening to my body, something that makes my skin feel too hot, too tight. My scent is changing, becoming sweeter, more intense.No. Not now. Not here."Ivan," I say desperately, "I think I'm going into heat."His nostrils flare slightly as he catches my

  • Masked Desire   Chapter 86

    Kaelen's POV The council chamber is darker than usual, lit only by flickering candles that cast long shadows across the stone walls. Lord Ravenscrest sits at the head of the table, his presence commanding even in this room full of powerful supernatural beings. I stand behind his chair, watching as he addresses the assembled council members. "Gentlemen, ladies," Lord Ravenscrest begins, his voice carrying the authority of decades in power. "Thank you for agreeing to this emergency session." Around the table sit twelve of the most influential supernatural leaders in the region. Vampire elders, werewolf pack leaders, fae nobles, and others whose names carry weight in our world. Most look skeptical, some openly hostile. He did not call the Lycan leaders. "Ravenscrest," says Elder Blackthorne, a vampire whose family has held power for centuries. "This better be worth our time. Calling an emergency council session over some academy politics—" "This is about much more than academy poli
