Asher pov

I grasped the bottle from Mason's hand, the heavy glass feeling like a weight pressing down on my conscience. The reality of what we had done settled in my gut, roiling like a toxic concoction. With a weary sigh, I tipped back the bottle and took a deep swig, the fiery burn of the liquor washing over my throat, momentarily dulling the anguish gnawing at me. Across the room, Demian sat hunched on the couch, his posture defeated, his gaze fixed vacantly on the worn wooden floor.

"We need to find a way to bring her back," I declared, my voice steady and resolved despite the turmoil inside.

Mason, his eyes bloodshot and lacking their usual spark, raised an incredulous eyebrow. "And how exactly do you plan to do that, Asher? We really messed things up this time."

Setting the bottle down on the scratched coffee table, I let my thoughts race through potential options. "First, we need to figure out where she’s gone. Does anyone have a lead or know someone who might?"

    Enzo povI fixed my gaze on the blundering idiot standing before me, my anger simmering just below the surface like a pot of water poised to boil over. "Just shut up!" I snapped, the words exploding from my throat like a volley of sharp arrows. He was regurgitating the same tired excuses about his earlier mistakes, half-heartedly claiming he'd tried to ask others for help but had only gotten snarled at in return.My hands shook slightly as I fidgeted with the crumpled cigarette pack in my pocket, the familiar craving for nicotine eclipsed by the mounting frustration boiling inside me. "I've had enough of this," I muttered to myself, though the real issue wasn't merely my dependence on cigarettes; it was the glaring incompetence standing right before me.I stood up abruptly, the chair screeching against the wooden floor as I pushed it back with a forceful motion. Striding purposefully toward the corner cupboard, I swung the door open with a determined pull and tossed the cigarette pack

    Isabella povI walked to the weathered stone wall, my boots echoing off its cold, rough surface. The dim light of the setting sun filtered through the narrow window, casting long, elongated shadows that danced across the room. A shiver crept down my spine, not just from the chill in the air, but from the weight of the task ahead. I was charged with rallying the support I desperately needed to take down Enzo’s ruthless pack, and I resolved that no one would stand in my way. Rufus had stepped out moments before to gather more of his arsenal, leaving me alone to wait in this musty chamber.My eyes scanned the room, absorbing the familiar yet eerie surroundings. The walls, draped with ancient tapestries depicting long-forgotten battles, seemed to whisper stories of bravery and betrayal. The air was thick with the scent of old books and dust, reminiscent of a time when knowledge was power. In the corner, I spotted a small, rickety stool, its legs slightly wobbly. I dragged it over to the w

    Mae pov I stepped into the bustling market, my eyes scanning the tight rows of colorful stalls, each overflowing with vibrant produce and handmade crafts. The air was thick with the rich aromas of spices and street food, mingling with the occasional waft of grilled meats. Haggling vendors called out to potential buyers, their voices blending into a cacophony of lively chatter that surrounded me like a wave. I tried tuning it out, but an inexplicable chill crept over me, making my caution transform into something darker. The air conditioning units rattled ineffectively above, but the coolness I felt had a different source—a sensation that sent shivers racing down my spine. With every step, a cold breeze swept across my skin, sending goosebumps rippling over my arms like the brush of ice. Something isn’t right, I thought, a whisper of dread echoing through my mind. Clutching the nylon bag tightly to my chest, I spun around, my gaze darting anxiously between the engrossed shoppers and

    Rufus povAs I gripped the polished leather reins, my palms grew clammy, and my heart raced in my chest like a tribal drum echoing through the quiet woods. The new carriage—a sleek, dark wood model adorned with intricate carvings—had indeed breathed fresh vitality into our pack, but I was anything but certain I was ready for the whirlwind that was Isabella. Her piercing green eyes sparkled with intrigue, as if they could see straight through my tightly held facade, while her raven-black hair tumbled down her back in glossy waves, reminiscent of a waterfall spilling secrets in the twilight. I swallowed hard, striving to focus on the winding dirt path that lay ahead, our ride bouncing rhythmically along the uneven terrain.“So, what do you mean by a start-up?” she asked again, her voice husky yet warmly curious, leaning in close on the plush seat beside me. The intoxicating scent of her perfume—a delicate blend of jasmine and something uniquely her—wafted through the air and intertwined

    Isabella pov My mind was racing, a whirlwind of thoughts as I tried to piece together the bizarre puzzle that was Thalia's presence here. She claimed to be Enzo's sister, yet she cozied up to the alphas with a confidence that suggested she owned the place. I glared at the sleek headband lying on the polished table, my fingers twitching with irritation and uncertainty. Alpha Asher had really outdone himself this time, replacing my old, worn wardrobe with an array of designer labels that screamed opulence and even revamping my makeup kit with products I had never dared to buy. With a swift motion, I snatched up the headband, my fingers deftly tying my raven-black hair into a smooth, high ponytail. As my gaze lingered on my reflection in the large, ornate mirror, I was greeted by the sharp contrast of my piercing green eyes against the dark backdrop of my hair—a striking image, but one that masked the turmoil brewing beneath the surface. My hands moved on autopilot, applying foundat

    Demian povI stood at the front of the assembly hall, a large space lit by flickering lanterns that cast dancing shadows across the walls, surveying the sea of anxious faces before me. Two long months had passed since Rachel's tragic death, an event that had left our community reeling with uncertainty, and still, no one could make sense of what had happened. The pack was restless, their whispers intertwining with the air, demanding answers I simply did not possess. My eyes scanned the crowded room, meeting the intense gazes of my pack members. Anger simmered in their expressions, underlined by a palpable undertone of fear and frustration. I couldn't bring myself to blame them; Rachel had been one of our own, and her absence felt like a wound that refused to heal.An elder, Grey, stood up; his silver hair and weathered skin lending him an air of wisdom that sharply contrasted the tension in the room. "Alpha Demian," he began, his voice steady and clear, "we can't just sit back and do

    Isabella pov I remained enveloped in the soft embrace of my duvet, its weight, a comforting pressure that anchored me to the bed. The fabric was warm and familiar, creating a cocoon of safety that I was reluctant to leave. Yet, beyond the sanctuary of my blankets, the muffled voices emanating from Alpha Asher's chamber next door beckoned to me like a siren’s call, piquing my curiosity with every syllable. Alpha Asher's deep, resonant voice reverberated against the wooden walls, interspersed with the lighter, melodic tones of another speaker. I felt a tug of intrigue; it felt almost unjust to eavesdrop, yet I was drawn in, unwillingly, as my name slipped into their conversation, causing my ears to perk up in surprise “Come on, Mason, what did you say to her that made her feel so at ease?” Alpha Asher's voice filtered through the walls, laced with a playful amusement that sent a pang of curiosity coursing through me. Who was this "her" they spoke of, and what had Mason divulged that

    Thalia povI flashed Enzo a sly smile as I agreed to his audacious plan. "Alright, big brother. I'll do it. But don't expect me to be some lovesick fool. I'll play the game, but I’ll do it my way." Enzo's grin widened, his approval radiating from him like warmth from a fire. "I knew I could count on you, Thalia. Now, let’s get you ready to make a statement."With that, the maids scurried back into the room, their arms laden with sumptuous gowns and sparkling jewelry. The air filled with a fragrant blend of lavender and fresh linen as they helped me into a breathtaking silver dress that hugged my curves in all the right places, glimmering under the soft light. It seemed to shimmer with every movement, catching the eye like a beacon of elegance. My long hair was styled in loose, cascading waves that framed my face, while my makeup was applied to perfection—smoky eyes accentuated by a hint of shimmering highlighter, giving me an ethereal glow. I looked in the mirror and felt like a quee
