Thane's POV

The happiness in her eyes was beautiful; I was happy just looking at her being happy; she smiled, and I would do anything to see that smile again.

She looked at me with a teary eye like is she trying to say thank you but couldn't speak; she held him close to her chest and cried. I guess she was that happy.

"You can leave, but you know our agreement is not over?" I said; I felt like a jerk disturbing that moment, but I had to.

"Of course, Your Majesty, I would be here towards midnight," she answered, bowed her head, and left giggling with her boy.

I caught myself smiling; I slapped my face; an alpha doesn't smile or look happy, anyone could be watching, and that happiness could be used against me.

I stood up and walked around my chambers, anticipating her escape, how would she escape? In any case, I'll still get her back; one way or the other, I will get her back, and I will make sure she doesn't dare to escape again.

The room was getting hot, perhaps because of my anger; I

  • Scorned: The Rebirth of Kaidaira    Chapter 107

    Chapter 107Kaidaira's POV The courtyard felt empty after they left. Even with the servants rushing around, even with the clamor of preparations still humming in the air, everything seemed… quieter.I stood there for a long time, staring at the path Thane had taken. His words replayed in my head, soft and dangerous."I wouldn’t have been able to leave."It was the kind of thing that should melt a woman. Make her believe. Hope.But I couldn’t afford those things.Not when I was so close to everything I’d worked for.Not when revenge was still unfinished.I turned and walked back toward the palace, careful not to let my mask slip. The maids were already whispering."Did you see how he looked at her?""He never says things like that to anyone.""They’re in love."I smiled faintly as I passed them.Good. Let them believe it.The more convincing the lie, the deeper the betrayal would feel when the truth came crashing down. And it would. I’d make sure of it.Back in my chambers, I sank int

  • Scorned: The Rebirth of Kaidaira    Chapter 106

    Chapter 106 Kaidaira's POV The sound of metal clashing jerked me out of sleep. It was faint, but steady, the distinct clank of armor and the dull thuds of heavy boots pounding against packed earth. I sat up in bed, pushing the silk sheets aside and straining my ears. Outside, the courtyard was alive with movement. Wolves. Warriors. Preparing for war. I slipped from the bed and moved to the window, pulling the curtain just slightly. From the tower, I could see them... lines of soldiers marching across the yard, weapons glinting in the morning sun. Horses neighed as they were led into formation. Blacksmiths barked orders as smoke billowed from the forges. Healers rushed across the grounds carrying crates of supplies, herbs, and bandages. And there it was that sharp, bitter smell that curled around my nose. Wolfsbane. I flinched instinctively. Even a trace of it made my stomach turn. The scent was unmistakable, and it hung in the air like a warning. Something about it all did

    Kaidaira POVI was so shocked by what she said. She want to sell me back to Alpha Thane's pack. This can't be happening to me. Yet again I am nothing more than a commodity for sell. Why was life so cruel to me. “Have I done something so unforgivable that the moon goddess decides to punish me this way?” I asked myself.“I can't go back to Alpha Thane's pack” I screamed as everyone diverted their attention to me. The old woman gave me a stern look before turning to face the Alpha.“You either have to go back to Thane's pack or you die” Alpha Rashid said without mercy.All my hope was shattered before me, going back to Thane's pack is the same thing as death.“Send a message to Alpha Thane's that wwe are returning his slave back to him and it's coming with a price” Alpha Rashid back out orders to one of the general.“Sir what if he doesn't complies with us” one of them asked.“Then we would kill her” he said as if he was talking about kill an animal or something.I couldn't do anything

What does she mean by lies no one in tgis pack knows that Thane is the father of my child except lady Akira.But I know lady Akira won't say anything since she was trying to protect her family“What do you mean by lies?” One of the council members asked. “The child is not for any man, the child is for Alpha Thane” she said making me and Lady Akira look at each other in shock.I cover my shock expression up and tried to act tough. “Who is this Alpha Thane you are talking about?” I asked keeping my most innocent face. Like I was just hearing the name that made me scared and gave me butterflies for the first time.“I heard you when you were confessing to Lady Akira about the father of your child three days ago” she said making me shiver in fear.So Ismail had someone spy on us when my mother came to visit the other day.

    Chapter 103Kaidaira's POV When Thane finally calmed down, his voice was lower. He looked at me with fire in his eyes, but it wasn't anger, it was something else. "I’ll look into this," he said. "I’ll call the warriors, we’ll figure this out and thank you."He placed a kiss on my cheeks then he turned and walked toward the door."I’ll see you later," he said before leaving the room.As soon as the door closed behind him, I felt a rush of excitement in my chest. I did it. He believed it, my plan was working.I smiled to myself, holding back the laugh that wanted to escape. I turned quickly and walked out of his chambers, heading straight to my room.The moment I stepped in, my maids turned to me with wide eyes."You look happy, my lady," Isis said, stepping forward."I have good news," I said, barely able to hold it in. "He believed the evidence, he thinks Rashid is planning an attack."Their eyes lit up."Already?" Kiya whispered, her voice hushed so as not to draw the attention o

    Chapter 102Alpha Thane's POV The walls of my chambers closed in around me like a tomb. I paced back and forth, my mind scattered.Where was she?The sun had begun to set an dshe wasn't back yet.I clenched my jaw and turned again, running a hand through my hair. I’d told myself not to panic. What if something happened to her?She hadn’t said where she was going this morning. Only that she had something to do, and her eyes, those seductive eyes had dared me to ask but I didn’t. I let her go.And now she was gone.I stopped near the table and picked up the cup of water that had long since gone warm. My throat was dry, but I didn’t drink. I couldn’t. Not until I knew where she was, not until she returned.I wasn’t used to this, the worry, the waiting. It clawed at me worse than any enemy ever had.
