(Lysander’s POV)

It’s been a week since I sent Damon to replace the twin’s teacher. It didn't take much money to get her to leave her job.

We found out that she’s in a one million dollars debt from aggressive loan sharks. And I just have to pay five times of that for her help Damon enter the school smoothly.

It won't take long before I finally have the results in my hand.

I can't wait to find the truth about my twins.

I know they're mine.

I just need a legal paper to prove that.

Suddenly, the door to my room opened, making me hide all the pictures back in the drawers.

I glanced at Beta Mid who looked like he just saw a ghost.

"Alpha, the reports keep coming in," he said. "There are frequent deaths along the borders. Some of our werewolves are turning blue before they die, and others are decapitated in their wolf form."

My brows furrowed from what he said.

I got so busy with Almira’s arrival that I wasn’t really able to focus on the pack affairs. I left it under Beta Mid’s watch to ens

    (Almira’s POV)I was just sitting at my desk in the office when my phone suddenly buzzed. I’m already expecting messages from work, but it was my other phone that received a notification.You see, I have two phones. One that I use for work. And one that I use for personal purposes. This is my way of dividing my work from personal stuff. I don’t really like it when they get all mixed up.I glanced at the screen and saw a message from the werewolf council. My heart skipped a beat from that. I read the warning silently. It reads increasing deaths in America. Werewolves are turning blue and some are even decapitated when in their wolf form.“Wait… I think I’ve read something like this before. I remember back at the library, while I was researching about myself. It was the same thing.”I remember reading about this in that old book at the library. I can’t be mistaken. It’s the exact same thing.I leaned back in my chair and whispered to myself, "This is exactly what the book said."I scann

    (Almira’s POV)Despite Rich’s disapproval, I still returned to America. I said my farewell to the twins, also to my parents. They told me to be careful, but didn't stop me.They said that they can't stop me if I really think that I could help save those werewolves.I know that Rich is mad at me for leaving again, but I know that he’ll always choose to understand me. That's what he always does. And I really do hope that he still does this time because I don't know what else to do if he leaves me hanging, too.My flight landed in New York and almost immediately, I was greeted by members of the werewolf council.“Miss Almira Sinclair?” they confirmed as they greeted me in the airport. I looked at the three of them. Two women and one man.One of them looks old. He must be an Elder of the werewolf council.“Yes,” I said. “I’m sorry to keep you waiting. The flight took me hours.”The woman shook her head.“It is us who should apologize for inconveniencing you. Miss Sinclair, you came all th

    (Lysander’s POV)“What?” I blurted.My disbelief filled the four corners of the room. I just received a tip from Damon that the twins aren't actually Rich’s children. I fucking knew it.Almira lied to me."My heart pounded as I processed his words. "You mean... she lied to me? About who their father is?" I confirmed it again.I just can't believe it.She said those words to me without breaking eye contact. It really made me believe that she was telling the truth, even if I had doubts.I was thinking that maybe it’s just me. Maybe she’s really telling the truth, and just blinded by my unresolved feelings for her.But this just confirmed everything."Yes," Damon replied. "I think the only reason she would keep the truth from you is because... because the children might actually be yours."I swallowed hard.I don't know what to feel. I feel a mixture of shock and anger. I’m mad because Almira didn't give me a chance to know my children. They're mine, too!"I've always known something was

    (Almira’s POV)After that heated reunion at the Shadow Weavers Pack’s borders, Lysander and I finally decided to talk it out over dinner. Staying at their pack isn't really part of my plan, but I knew I had to talk to him if I really wanted to make this happen.I arrived at their pack's grand dining hall formally, seeing where the feast is laid out like a celebration of power made my stomach churn for a reason. Lysander has spared no expense. The long table is laden with roast meats and steaming vegetables prepared by the finest chefs in their pack. I can tell just by the presentation on the table.I smiled fakely at the extravagant spread. I’m not sure if this is him being hospitable or boastful. I'm the only one, yet, he’s acting like I came with a battalion of my people.I used to be that person who was easy to impress, but that was five years ago I had to change because she was easier to kill. He could try to impress me now because that’s not going to happen.But it’s not happenin

    (Almira’s POV)I sipped my wine as I tried to ignore the tension that’s currently filling the room.I didn’t sign up for this."Lysander, explain this!" Rachelle shouted. It was so loud that you could hear her voice echoing off the stone walls. She frantically looked at me like she was trying to kill me with just her eyes. I looked at her boredly. She thinks I have time for her ridiculous accusations?Embarrassed, Lysander stood up from his seat to stop his wife from making a scene. I gave both of them a bored look. Am I really supposed to hear all of this right now? "This is none of your business, Rachelle. You shouldn’t be here. And why are you even home so early?"Rachelle looked at him in disbelief. She must not be expecting Lysander to lash at her like that.A part of me wants to feel bad for her, but what can I do? I just want to pat myself at the back for dodging a bullet. Leaving him was the best decision I made in my life. I can’t imagine myself standing in her shoes. She’s a

    (Almira’s POV)Like I was expecting, the guest bathroom is just as fancy as this entire place. I just finished my bath in my own jacuzzi.I was thinking of stepping out onto the balcony for some fresh air, so I wrapped myself in a soft robe to battle the cold breeze of the night.The night is quiet except for the rustling of the trees below. If there’s something I like about the Shadow Weaver’s pack, it is the fact that they are close to the main border. According to the myth, this is what separates the werewolves from the land of vampires and witches.But that's not what I like about it.As a feared border, it is left untouched for so many years. Some werewolves who dared to enter it spread stories that it’s actually very beautiful inside. They describe it as paradise.It’s basically a forest, spreading two square kilometers across. Despite it having a haunting past, it never really started any conflicts.Until now…I called back home earlier to check on the twins, hoping to hear Ric

    (Almira’s POV)“Alpha, do you feel nauseous or anything?" the healer asked.We’re currently here at the infirmary of their pack mansion as the healer tries to figure out what happened to Lysander. His back bears a long scratch, but what catches everyone’s attention is the strange blue liquid that seems to mix with his blood.It somehow reminds me of the blue mark on the werewolf victims. I’m starting to think that it was actually them we encountered last night.The healer frowned and gently pressed on the wound.Lysander shook his head. "No, I feel nothing,” he replied flatly. He barely flinched as the healer applied a cool salve over the scratch.I watch silently in the corner of the room. Something about it feels off. I remember how we never separated in the woods. We were together when we were attacked by those strange creatures that roamed the forest.Now, here we are, and I see no injuries on me at all.The healer turned to me next. "Miss Almira, are you hurt?

    (Almira’s POV)Beta Mid and I don’t have to think hard to know what the hell is going on right now. These rogues have attacked the guards that we assigned to post on the border.The scent of blood fills the air as we prepare ourselves for a gruesome fight against them. I’m sure they’re thinking that we are their next meal."Alpha, run!" Beta Mid shouted. "I'll distract them."I whipped my head towards him. Run? I can’t do that to him. He can’t fight them all by himself. "No! I'm not leaving you to fight them alone,” I refused firmly. He looked at me worriedly, but my eyes were already blazing in defiance.“Rghhhh!!!”There's no time to argue.The rogues with bared teeth and wild eyes lunged into thin air. Beta Mid shifted instantly into his wolf form. A black and powerful wolf stood against the moonlight. He charged forward, slamming into the first rogue with bone-crushing force.The sounds of their skin tearing made my ears itch.I watched him fight—five against one. He’s skilled, fa

    (Almira’s POV)The night smelled of blood.Not wolf blood. Not human either.Magic.Ancient. Rotted. Old as the bones buried beneath this cursed land.I crouched low against the balcony stone, my hand wrapped tightly around the dagger hilt strapped to my thigh. The wind tore at my cloak as voices rose below — one I knew like the rhythm of my own breath.Lysander.And the other?Sweet. Sultry. Pretending to purr even now, even with the scent of death hanging in the air.Rachelle.I should’ve known. I *did* know. Every inch of my body had screamed it from the moment she looked at Hazel and Asher like they were keys instead of children. But I needed proof. Not just instinct. Not just rage.And tonight, I had it.I watched them through the cracked marble archway. Lysander stood stiffly, shoulders taut, his silver blade slick with fresh blood — not his own.

    (Hazel's POV)The honey cakes taste too sweet. Like they’re trying to cover something up.I chew slow, just like Mama told me—never trust sweetness too fast. Especially from someone who talks too soft and smiles too much. I keep my eyes half-closed, the way wolves do when they’re watching something dangerous.Rachelle’s voice is like syrup, sticky and fake. “I want to help you, Hazel. You and your brother. I want to teach you how not to be controlled.”I blink at her.That word. *Controlled*. I don’t like it. It sounds like cages and chains and being told what to do with the thing that burns under my skin. I don’t know what I am yet—but I know I’m not a tool. And neither is Asher.She leans closer, like she thinks we’re sharing secrets now. “People are always scared of what they can’t control. Even your mother.”I sit up straighter. “My mom&rsquo

    (Rachelle’s POV)Later that eveningThe night is soft and heavy with the scent of pine and late-blooming jasmine. The wind hums outside my window, stirring the curtains like a lullaby. It should be calming.But I’m wired.Because they didn’t push me away today.Hazel didn’t glare as hard. Asher actually asked me a question. It was small, meaningless to someone who doesn’t know what to listen for—but to me? It was everything.“Can you do magic too?”A casual question from a curious boy, sure. But it meant he was wondering. Wondering if he could learn something from me. Wondering if I had answers that no one else had given him. And most of all—if I was different from the grown-ups who only saw his power as something to control.That’s how it starts.It always starts with wonder.Hazel, though… Hazel is different.She’s the hard one.

    (Hazel’s POV)That night, I didn’t sleep.The cake Rachelle brought was still sitting on my windowsill, getting all stale and sticky. I didn’t even take a bite. I just looked at it, trying to decide if it smelled weird. It didn’t. But it still made my stomach feel funny.Not the cake.Her.I curled under my blanket and hugged Bramble, my stuffed bear. I told Mom I was too big for him now, but I wasn’t ready to let him go. Bramble didn’t judge me when I was scared, or when I had to think real hard like tonight. He just stayed.“She’s not like the others,” I whispered to him.He didn’t answer, but I pretended he was listening.Rachelle’s eyes were too shiny when she smiled. Not in a nice way, like Mom’s when we do something good. No, it was the kind of shiny that hides sharp things. Like when a fox pretends to be a friend.I touched the charm she gave

    (Rachelle's POV)Hazel is quiet the rest of the visit, but she doesn’t push me away.She watches. Listens. And when I say I should get going, she stands and walks me to the door."Will you come back tomorrow?" she asks, her voice feather-light, almost fragile.I blink, surprised. “If you’d like me to.”She nods slowly. “I think I would.”And just like that, I win a sliver of trust. Or so I think.Or so I believe.The next day, I return with more treats—berry tarts this time, and a little charm I enchanted myself, something subtle. A protection token. Fake, of course, but believable enough for a child.Hazel accepts it without a word. But when I sit across from her, I notice something... off.She’s smiling.It’s small. Barely there. But it’s a real smile. And it’s not for me—it’s for herself.“Do you like ridd

    (Rachelle’s POV)Reginald is an idiot.A powerful idiot, yes—but still an idiot. He thinks I’m working for him. Thinks I’m here to win *his* little power struggle against Almira. He thinks I’m just a jealous mate, clinging to my position and my unborn child like it's all I’ve got.He has no idea.As I leave his office, I let my expression shift slowly back into a soft, concerned smile—just enough for the omegas walking by to see. I even rub my stomach as I pass them. Let them think I’m maternal. Harmless. That’s how you survive in a world of wolves.You act like the sheep.But I’m not here to be Reginald’s puppet or Almira’s shadow. I’m here for the twins.Hazel and Asher.I saw them once—just a glimpse—when Almira brought them inside. Hazel’s eyes locked on mine for barely two seconds, but I felt it. Raw energy. Magic that made the hairs on my arms rise.They're different.And I want them.Not because they’re cute or royal or whatever Reginald imagines. No, I want what’s *in* them. P

    (Reginald’s POV)I slam the crystal tumbler down onto the desk. Whiskey sloshes over the rim and soaks into a pile of reports I’ve already read twice. Nothing in them helps me. Just more useless updates from spies, empty words from the council, and—worst of all—nothing about how to control the damn twins.They’re under my roof, eating my food, breathing my air. But I can’t touch them. Can’t use them. Can’t even speak freely around them without Almira sniffing out my intentions.She ruined everything.She stormed in like some returning hero, claiming motherhood and moral high ground like a prize. The pack flocked to her like sheep. Even Mid—my Beta—has started tiptoeing around her like she owns the damn place.I stand up, pacing across the room. My heels echo off the marble floor, loud and angry.The children—Asher and Hazel—are something different. My Beta confirmed it. Hazel nearly melted through a silver pot in the kitchen, and Asher? He looked at one of the patrol guards, and the g

I start inviting her more often to “bond” with the twins. I don’t hover—but I watch from a distance. I let her think she’s winning.Mid and I set everything carefully.We pick a day when Damon is out with the border patrol. The pack house is quiet. The kids are painting in the garden. I leave a worn leather journal on the garden bench—the one that supposedly contains notes about the twins’ powers and some fake “ritual symbols.”It’s bait.Rachelle arrives exactly on cue.“Almira,” she says, all sweet and surprised. “You’re letting them paint outside alone now?”I smile. “They’ve been so calm lately. I think it helps them feel… grounded.”She nods. “May I?” she gestures toward the kids.“Of course,” I say. “I’ll be in the herb room. Call if you need me.”I walk away slowly, but not too far.I wait.Minutes pass. Then I

    (Almira’s POV)I don’t trust her smile.Not the one she gave my daughter when she asked if she liked painting, her voice all syrup and false warmth. Not the one she flashed at Asher when she offered him cookies she hadn’t even baked herself, pretending to care.And now, after what Mid told me… it all makes sense.She’s watching them. Not like children—but like riddles she’s desperate to solve. Every glance, every question, it’s calculated. Measured. Like she’s gathering data.I pace by the window, arms folded, eyes locked on the backyard. The kids are playing, completely unaware. So innocent. So normal. Asher’s shadow dances at his feet as he laughs, his joy loud and unfiltered. Hazel’s kneeling on the stones, drawing suns and hearts in chalk, her hair catching the light like strands of gold.
