I stayed rooted in the woods long after my father disappeared into the shadows.

The weight of his words pressed down on me like a stone on my chest. Kill Ryder and take his place as Alpha.

The thought turned my stomach. I had been angry with Ryder plenty of times, but never once had I imagined ending his life. Never.

I shook my head, trying to clear the fog. Doris. I needed to see her. I had to know she was still breathing.

Pushing through the trees, I stepped back into the o

    “What the fuck did you just say?”My father’s roar filled the private room like thunder. He lunged forward and grabbed my shirt with both fists, shaking me hard. His eyes were wild, veins bulging on his forehead. I had never seen him like this genuinely scared before.“Alpha Stone is alive,” I repeated, keeping my voice steady. “He’s been treated in a hidden basement at the pack house as we speak.”“I heard you!” he shouted, still gripping my shirt. “How is he alive? He died three years ago! We made sure of it!” His voice cracked with panic as he shook me again.“Dad, I don’t have all the details,” I said quickly. “I only found out recently. I’m still trying to understand how he’s alive. I followed Ryder one fateful day and saw it with my own eyes. Ryder and Ms D were down there, treating him. His eyes opened, but he couldn’t see anything. Ms D said he has memory loss. He probably won’t recognize anyone right now.”My father released me and stumbled bac

    I stayed rooted in the woods long after my father disappeared into the shadows. The weight of his words pressed down on me like a stone on my chest. Kill Ryder and take his place as Alpha.The thought turned my stomach. I had been angry with Ryder plenty of times, but never once had I imagined ending his life. Never.I shook my head, trying to clear the fog. Doris. I needed to see her. I had to know she was still breathing.Pushing through the trees, I stepped back into the open, but the moment I looked down, I cursed. My clothes were shredded from the shift—ripped shirt hanging in strips, pants torn at the knees. I couldn’t walk into the clinic looking like a wild animal.I waited in the shadows beside the path. Footsteps approached. A young male omega came walking by, humming softly to himself. Before he could react, I stepped out and grabbed him, pulling him sharply into the corner.He froze instantly.“I don’t want to hurt you,” I said, my voice

    “So you’re behind everything happening to Doris, right?” I shot back, my voice sharp, cutting through the heavy silence between us.My father didn’t answer immediately. Instead, he watched me—calm, unreadable.Then he spoke.“You think I would actually kill her?” he asked quietly.The question made me pause.It didn’t sound like a lie but it didn’t sound like the truth either.I waited.Something about the way he said it didn’t sit right with me.“I aimed that arrow to scare her,” he continued. “Not to kill her.”A bitter laugh escaped me.“You expect me to believe that after you just threatened to kill her?” I asked, my voice low but filled with anger.“No,” he replied calmly. “I expect you to think. For once.”Before I could respond, he stepped closer.Close enough for me to see the blood still running down his face… close enough to feel the weight of his presence.“I need you to move,” he said. “I need you to stop hiding in

    “Dad… why?”The word tore out of me, raw and broken.I was still on my knees, my hands trembling so badly I couldn’t steady them. Tears blurred my vision, but I didn’t wipe them away. I couldn’t. Not when the truth stood right in front of me.“How could you do this for so many years?” I shouted, my voice echoing through the forest. Birds scattered from the trees, startled by the force of it.But he didn’t move.He just stayed there… watching me.Like he was thinking. Like he was choosing his words carefully—as if this was just another conversation, not a moment that was tearing me apart.The man who had been hunting Doris.The man who had caused fear, chaos, death… was my father.And deep down, I already knew.If he was capable of this… then Nana’s death wasn’t a coincidence.For a moment, I couldn’t breathe.“Answer me!” I roared. “Why did you do this?”He finally moved.Slowly, he pushed himself up from the ground, wincing as

    ~ Blade POV ~I stood outside Doris’s ward, giving myself a hundred reasons why I shouldn’t go inside.After the heated argument I had with Ryder, I had finally accepted the truth—Doris was not mine to claim. She belonged to him, not me.Still… I would be here for her. Like always. Even if it meant watching from a distance. Even if it meant waiting for a moment that might never come, when I could finally claim her as mine.Lost in my thoughts, I suddenly heard a loud noise coming from Doris’s room.I rushed inside.My eyes instantly dropped to the broken vase and the arrow on the floor.“What happened?” I asked sharply, scanning the room.“An attack,” she said quickly, still breathing hard. “Through the window.”I didn’t waste another second.My expression changed instantly.Then I saw him.The masked man outside the window, running.“Stay here. I’ll handle it,” I said immediately.“No—Blade,” She tried to stop me.I didn’t

    ~ Doris ~“Mom, this is a very hurtful story,” I said, leaning forward on the edge of the bed, my voice quieter now.My mother let out a slow breath and nodded.“Yes, honey… it was very hurtful for me,” she said softly. Her eyes looked far away, like she was seeing things that happened many years ago.I frowned slightly, trying to process everything she had just told me about Jackson Black.“So now I can see it,” I said after a moment. “Jackson Black is still the same. He’s just being petty… starting an unnecessary war, just to stress you out. Just like before.”Mom’s expression hardened a little at the mention of his name.“He has always been self-centered,” she said. “Even when we were teenagers. And I honestly don’t think he will ever change.”Silence settled between us for a moment.Then I looked at her more carefully.“So… Do you regret it?” I asked quietly. “Do you regret the decisions you made twenty-five years ago?”She didn’t answ

    Chapter 46Ryder had barely settled into his seat when he leaned closer, his voice low enough for only me to hear.“We have a lot to discuss,” he murmured, a small smile touching his lips. “You can’t keep secrets from me anymore.”Before I could respond, he pressed a soft kiss to my c

    Chapter 43 Thirty minutes had passed.The grand hall felt like it was closing in on me. Lanterns swayed gently overhead, casting pools of golden light across rows of seated Alphas and Lunas. The air was heavy with the scent of meat, fresh wine, and too many perfumes. Music

    Frustration burned hotter than the rage inside me.Rage was clean and simple because It gave me something to destroy.But this… this helplessness… it sat in my chest like poison, spreading with every breath.I should have found her.I should have brought her back.The pack hou
