**Damian’s POV**

I was exhausted, my legs burning as I stumbled through the dark woods, William’s heavy body slung over my shoulder. His weight was killing me, but I couldn’t stop. We were close to the Shadow Pack’s estate—too close to give up now. The early morning air was cold, biting at my skin, but I kept moving, one step at a time. William’s shallow breaths were the only thing keeping me going. He was alive, barely, and I had to get him help.

When I saw the estate gates, my knees nearly gave out. I crouched down, easing William to the ground, his blood soaking into my shirt. The guards spotted us right away. “Damian!” one shouted, rushing over with two others. They saw William’s torn-up body and didn’t ask questions. They lifted him, supporting his weight, and we hurried toward the healer’s quarters.

“Get him to the healer!” I barked as we passed through the gates, my voice rough from panting. “Now!” They nodded, carrying William off to Torin, the pack’s healer—an old guy who’d b

  • Revenge after deceit: I belong to mafia Don    chapter 30

    Ava's POVI didn't know what day it was at first, not until I felt the familiar chill in the air and noticed how eerily quiet everything had become. The silence was different—heavy with anticipation. Then I looked out the small window of my cramped room and saw it: the exact full red moon I remembered from that night. My heart sank as the memory crashed over me like a wave.It was the night of the mating ceremony. The night I tried to escape from my stepbrothers' clutches.Move according to the script, Morticia's voice whispered in my mind, cold and commanding. Act exactly as you did that day. Don't try to change anything.I wanted to refuse, to break free from this nightmare, but my body moved on its own, following the path of that terrible night.I was back in that suffocating room, my body aching from another night of torment at William and Damian's hands. They had left me broken and humiliated, as they always did. The annual mating ceremony was taking place in the grand hall, the

    Russell's POVThe first thing that hit me when consciousness crept back was the scent—expensive leather, polished wood, and something floral that definitely wasn't forest air. My head felt like someone had used it as a punching bag, and the wolfsbane from those bullets was still burning through my system, keeping my healing at a crawl.I tried to move and immediately realized I was strapped to a chair. Heavy leather restraints bound my wrists and ankles, the kind that were designed to hold someone with supernatural strength. My shoulders ached where the bullets had torn through them, the wounds sluggishly trying to close.When I finally managed to lift my head and focus my vision, I found myself in what looked like a luxury hotel suite. Crystal chandeliers hung from an ornate ceiling, expensive artwork lined the walls, and floor-to-ceiling windows showed a city skyline. This wasn't some abandoned warehouse or dingy basement—this was high-end, sophisticated.And sitting across from me

    WILLIAMS’S POVI had expected to see almost anyone else walk through that door—guards, Russell's men, hell, even the grim reaper himself. But Kelvin? My father's right-hand man? That was the last person I'd imagined would show up in this godforsaken place.How the hell was he here? How had he managed to locate us? How did he even know where Russell had taken us? The questions hammered at my brain, but the one that scared me most was this: Was my father somehow connected to Ava's kidnapping?, how did he find out about Russell's hide out?.The moment Kelvin saw me and Damien tied up in those chairs, his eyes went wide with shock. He quickly closed the door behind him and strode toward us, his shoes echoing in the empty room."So it was Russell who got the jump on you two," he said, shaking his head in what looked like disgust. "After you went after him, no less. I have to say, you're both more pathetic and useless than I thought possible."His gaze fixed on me, and I could see the disap

    RUSSELL'S POVI was driving toward the eastern woods, my hands gripping the steering wheel so tight my knuckles had turned white. The road stretched ahead of me like a black ribbon, leading me straight into what could be my final destination. After that call with Grey ended, I knew I had to move fast. But first, I needed backup—someone I could actually trust in this world full of liars and backstabbers.That's when I called Drake.Drake had been my right-hand man from the very beginning, back when I first joined the mafia organization. In fact, he was more than that—he was my spy, my strategist, my conscience when things got too dark. I trusted him with everything, and now I was trusting him with my life. While everyone else had either betrayed me for a better offer or gotten themselves killed chasing easy money, Drake had stayed loyal through every war, every betrayal, every moment when the world tried to tear us apart.When I'd outlined my plan to him an hour ago, he'd shaken his he

    Ava's POVI stared into Morticia's dark eyes, my jaw clenched so tight I thought my teeth might crack. "You said it wouldn't hurt," I spat, the phantom pain from the vision still coursing through me. "What the hell was that?"She rolled her eyes as if my suffering was nothing more than an inconvenience. Rising from the bed with fluid grace, she glided toward an ornate vase perched on a table at the far end of the room. Her pale fingers traced the ceramic surface in lazy circles."Come now, dear," she purred without looking back. "I didn't expect you to get so... heated. It's just a terrible past. Get over it."I released a heavy sigh, watching her theatrical display. "I *am* over it." The lie tasted bitter on my tongue. "So you're a raven. You make people see visions—force them to relive their worst nightmares. You should have told me from the start." My voice dropped to a whisper. "I thought your kind was extinct. How is there still a raven in this world? And why the hell are you wor

    Ava’s POVI stood frozen in front of the door, heart pounding in my chest. I already knew who was behind it. I didn’t need to open it. I didn’t need to see their faces. I could feel it—their presence, their cruelty waiting on the other side.My hand trembled by my side. I wasn’t ready to face this again.Then I heard her voice.“You must play along,” Morticia whispered in my ear, her tone calm but sharp. “You must act exactly how you acted that day. That’s the only way you can come back to reality.”That’s when it hit me. All of this—this door, this night—it was her doing. Morticia was making me relive my worst memories.I swallowed hard and stepped toward the door. My hand rested on the knob for a second before I finally twisted it open.There they were.Williams and Demian.Williams’ eyes locked on me first. He didn’t smile, didn’t greet me. He just grabbed me by the shoulder and shoved me backward. My back hit the wall, and before I could breathe, he pinned me there.Demian walked
