“I think it's time to appoint a new Alpha,” Elder Ambrose announced, and the room went deadly silent as everyone gaped at him in shock.

“Surely, you are joking?” Elder Antonia, who had been quiet and expressionless since the beginning of the whole meeting, asked in disbelief, making Ambrose shake his head.

“This is not a matter to joke with.”

“And yet you say something as absurd as that?” She scoffed in annoyance. “You want to appoint a new Alpha when the Alpha is still well and alive? I never knew you were a treasonous person.”

“It is the best solution to the problem we are facing now,” Ambrose argued.

“Tell me, how does removing the Alpha relate to catching a killer?” Antonia replied with a red face as her voice became louder while glaring at Ambrose.

“Answer me: how will removing a well, alive and a fully functional Alpha help get information about a killer? Or are you insinuating that the Alpha is the killer?!”

“Presumptuous!” Elder Ambrose yelled. “How dare you accuse me of su

    "You are awake," Collon's voice rang out through the dark room as Alpha Elton's eyes fluttered open."Where am I?" Alpha Elton? he asked, his eyes roaming the room, but no matter how he looked, he couldn't see anything in the darkness. "You can't even recognise your room?" Collon chuckled, a tone devoid of any amusement; instead, it was hollow and eerie. "Well, I brought you back to your room. Away from your beloved Kenderick. Here, where we can talk. Just us, since he hates you too much to be in your personal space." "If only he knew how much you paid to protect him." He added, his voice sounding sharper as he glared into the darkness. Alpha Elton tried to sit up, but a sharp pain pierced through his body. He let out a groan and fell back down as he looked in the direction Collon's voice was coming from. "What do you want to talk about?" "A lot of things," Collon inhaled deeply. "Do you know how hard it was to pretend all these years? To call you ‘Father’ like it meant something?

    "Every time I see you, you are always distressed," Jasmine mumbled as she stood beside Kenderick with a large book under her arms while they both watched the warriors training. "I'm not distressed," Kenderick replied, his voice a little sharper than usual. As if sensing his defensive tone, he cleared his throat and added. "I'm a little distracted but not distressed." "You are distressed," Jasmine replied. "I don't know how, but I can feel it when I'm close to you. I can feel your shift in moods. The last time you were at the bakery, you were annoyed. Wait a minute, I've never actually felt a positive emotion from you. Why?" "Are you here to see your sister?" He asked, subtly changing the topic. "Do you often come here to watch her train?" "You are changing the topic," Jasmine pointed out. "But I understand you. I wouldn't feel comfortable if a stranger walked up to me to talk about my moods." "You are not a stranger, though," he corrected while Jasmine shrugged."You mean not ent

    "And why are we discussing choosing a new Alpha?" Kendrick questioned, his eyes narrowing as he scanned the room."Our Alpha is recovering well. He was awake for a brief moment yesterday, and Nancy said he'll be fine in a month's time," he paused, noting the carefully blank expressions on the faces of the elders and others seated around the conference table."Is there something I am missing here?""There's nothing you are missing," Elder Ambrose replied with a tight smile. "Although it breaks my heart to do this, it is what we have to do.""Why?" Kendrick repeated. "I still don't understand the reason behind the sudden need for a new Alpha.""None of this is sudden," Elder Lydia answered with a sigh. "The proposal for appointing a new Alpha had already been made before Alpha Elton got poisoned. In fact, the poisoning case delayed it.""You wanted to impeach the previous Alpha? That's surprising," he scoffed. "If that's the case, we should probably start searching for those who will fi

    "Thank you, Beta Kendrick!" The grey-haired woman dropped to her knees, bowing so low her forehead touched the dirt.Her shoulders trembled as she sobbed, her face streaked with tears and snot while she clung to his ankles, stopping him from escaping as he had been doing the past few days."If not for you… My son would’ve been executed for something he didn’t do." She cried, her voice hoarse from how much she had cried and shouted after him. "After losing my husband just months ago, I... I couldn’t have survived losing him too.""I'm forever grateful to you!" Kendrick stiffened as he felt her hands around his ankle. He groaned, unsure what to do as the woman wept at his feet. Before he could utter a word, another figure rushed forward."You saved my daughter too!" Another woman joined, kneeling beside the first, with a basket of freshly picked fruits clutched to her chest. Her face glowed red from excitement or embarrassment, and her hands trembled slightly as she held the basket out

    "No wonder everyone is talking about the soufflés!" Xander exclaimed between bites, his cheeks bulging as he chewed the dessert. "Although it doesn't taste like that of your mother, the taste and texture are quite close." "It tastes good," Kendrick agreed as he took another small bite from his serving. "Do you think they changed the baker? The last baker's soufflés were the least liked dessert in the bakery," Xander mused."Yeah, they have a new assistant baker; she was employed based on her soufflé skills, and she just happened to be the one who served us," Ava replied as she cut into her chocolate mousse. "And you know that because?""It was just by the way; I was doing some checks on Kayla, who happened to be her sister," Ava replied with a shrug. Before Xander could ask the obvious question, she continued."Kayla applied to join my team. She's got the skill of a trained warrior; she's got the instinct and awareness. And that's unsettling somehow." "How is that unsettling?" Da

    "Can I get a pack of macarons and two packs of croissants?" Asked a silver‑haired man, his brows and eyelashes the same silvery shade, while Jasmine stood behind the counter, gently sipping natural mango juice after her morning shift."Coming right up," she murmured, trying not to spill as she reached around the service area."Take your time; I’m not in a rush," he added with a gentle chuckle. His eyes crinkled at her worried smile."Sorry… So that’s one pack of macarons and two packs of croissants. Right?" she confirmed, beginning to box the order. She stole glances at him as she worked.Noticing, he laughed softly. "Planning to ask if it’s natural or dyed?""I don’t mean to be rude," she flushed, embarrassed at being caught. “It’s just… you look different.”He raised an eyebrow, tilting his head. “Different how?”“Oh! Not in a weird way,” she hurriedly corrected. “You’re different—beautifully different. The blue in your eyes shines against your silver hair. It’s relaxing. It makes p
