My hand tightens, and Arina bristles within me.

I stare at the screen, taking in a tired-looking Rhea.

From another angle, Rhea’s entire body is seen as she huddles in a corner, showing me a clearer view of her face.

Her face is bruised, and her eyes are full of terror and despair.

I purse my lips, my jaw tense as I recall the things Rhea has done to me since I came into Allister’s life.

  • Rise Of The Hidden Heiress   245. Rhea's punishment

    I wait anxiously for Allister’s return to the observation room, already worried about his intentions. Soon, he walks in, his face unreadable.“Bloom, let’s go,” he calls me, his voice leaving no room for argumentI nod, guessing that he intends for me to be a part of Rhea’s punishment, but nothing prepared me for the sort of brutality he was going to subject Rhea to.As we prepare to leave, he retrieves a heavy, long coat from a cabinet in the room. “It’s cold outside, put this on.” He says, draping the coat over me.The coat is oversized, nearly dragging on the ground, but it carries his familiar, comforting scent. A subtle reassurance that, despite what I just witnessed, he cares for me and only me.Allister takes my hand and leads me outside, where a thick blanket of snow is falling.Then I see it…A steel structure, standing at the far end of the “The Skull” grounds. It looks like a reinforced post anchored into the frozen earth. Long chains hang from it, glinting under the dim

    My hand tightens, and Arina bristles within me. I stare at the screen, taking in a tired-looking Rhea. From another angle, Rhea’s entire body is seen as she huddles in a corner, showing me a clearer view of her face. Her face is bruised, and her eyes are full of terror and despair.I purse my lips, my jaw tense as I recall the things Rhea has done to me since I came into Allister’s life.From her falsely accusing me of wanting to hurt her at the shooting range, to her scheming up with Jefferson Hoard and several others.“I don’t understand why Rhea would do the things she did,” I tell Allister.“I don’t understand either,” he replies, his expression hardening. “I’ll ask her myself in a moment.” I lower my eyes and hum softly, adjusting to the sofa, my emotions troubled.I guess Allister notices as he squats down in front of me, taking my hands in his, and meeting my eyes. “Can you wait for me here, Bloom, while I check the basement?”“Okay,” I reply, nodding slightly.“Good girl,

  • Rise Of The Hidden Heiress   243. The Skull

    “And what is that?” I ask him.He touches my cheek, a smile on his face. “I’ll make her pay for what she has done.”His statement is vague, not specifying exactly how he will deal with Rhea. I study his face, trying to read his intentions, but his Alpha mask is firmly in place.Half an hour later, we pull into an unfamiliar place, and Leo stops the car slowly. I turn my head in confusion, looking out at the sprawling compound surrounded by high walls.“Where are we?” I ask, peering through the tinted windows.“Another one of my dungeons,” Allister replies, his voice steady. “I call it “The Skull”. This is where Rhea is being held. Now, come on.”After getting out of the car, Allister takes my hand. “Let’s go inside. Walk closely behind me, and don’t get lost. This place is very large.”I let him lead me, my wolf Arina, trusting his Alpha presence as I hurry to keep up. Having only caught a glimpse of “The Skull” from the car, I’m stunned when I see the place clearly. Though it’s al

  • Rise Of The Hidden Heiress   242. What I do to traitors

    My heart rate immediately speeds up.Acting as if I didn't see anything, I type on my phone and immediately forward it to Allister.Me: “[She has a gun]”Allister replies almost immediately.Allister: “[Don’t be afraid, Bloom. It’s just for protection, she won't hurt you.]”I immediately heave a sigh of relief.So, this is going to be my new life; having a housekeeper with a tactical background, amongst other things.Interesting.As the housekeeper removes her coat, I notice she is carrying a medium-sized shopping bag filled with fresh veggies.“I’m Emelda, Ma'am,” she introduces herself properly. “I graduated from a five-star, multiple award-winning culinary school, and I also attended a hospitality school as well. I’m good at my job, and I am a great cook.”“It’s nice to meet you, Emelda,” I reply. “Are you the one who stuck up my fridge?”She nods, her eyes crinkling with warmth. “Yes, Alpha Allister asked me to do so. I hope you don’t mind, ma'am?”“Absolutely not,” I reply, alrea

  • Rise Of The Hidden Heiress   241. Treacherous Being

    ~Rhea~After what feels like an eternity of darkness and pain, the truck finally stops.Bolts get pulled back, and the heavy doors open again.The wolf who poured water on me earlier steps into the truck, and his rough hands grab me again, dragging me violently from the vehicle. My wolf is weak and trembling within me, and can barely muster the strength to growl.I knock over the plate containing the nauseating green vegetables they kept as my food, as he drags me down.Once we get down, the familiar scent of our surroundings hits me immediately. I've been here before… that one time when Allister brought me over to identify a male wolf who attacked me because I refused his advances.This is Allister’s dungeon. I’ve never been inside before. When he brought me here, he didn’t let me inside. He simply kept me outside while his enforcer, Marcus, brought the wolf out to me to identify.Almost every Silver Valley Pack member has heard of the existence of Allister’s dungeons.This is where

  • Rise Of The Hidden Heiress   240. Helena Hearst

    ~Helena Hearst~I watch my son from across his living room, concern gnawing at my gut. Dominic is losing his mind right before my eyes, and it's all because of the silly girl, Jessica White.When his friends, Tommy and Nox, told me about his current condition, I didn’t believe them.I’d thought they were just making things up or over exaggerating until now.“Dominic, who were you talking to just now?” I ask my son, approaching him carefully as there have been reports of him attacking his friends when they try to approach him hurriedly or forcefully.He looks up, his eyes bright with an unnatural happiness that sends chills down my spine.“Mom,” he calls me, and that gives me some calm, knowing that he recognizes me at least.“It’s Jess, I was speaking to Jess. She went to the kitchen to make a healthy soup for my stomach. She’ll be right back.”Oh, dear goddess! My son is indeed crazy.He’s been like this all week,” Tommy explains beside me, and my heart sinks.“His wolf is encouragi
