Piper froze mid-step as she pushed open the door to the empty boys’ bathroom. The faint echo of running water bounced off the tiles. It smelled faintly of bleach and something metallic.

Kris leaned casually against the sink, one hand brushing back his hair, and a comb in the other. “Hello, Piper,” he said softly, when he saw her through the mirror.

Piper’s hands curled into fists at her sides. “Kris,” she said, voice low. “I should’ve guessed I’d find you here.”

He gave a sadistic smile. “Of co

  • Stuck Between Two Alpha Heir’s   Chapter 132

    The quietness in the room pulled her under before she could stop it.Not to the gunshot or to the black body bag being zipped shut the other night.To sunlight.Warm afternoons behind the old pack house where the grass grew uneven and stubborn no matter how much they mowed it.The air buzzed with insects and distant laughter from pack members training nearby. Pine trees swayed overhead, their long shadows stretching across the ground like slow-moving hands.Dust drifted lazily through shafts of gold light. Somewhere in the distance, someone shouted encouragement, followed by the dull thud of sparring bodies hitting the earth.Her father stood a few steps away, sleeves rolled up, boots dusted with dirt, a grin tugging at the corner of his mouth like he was always halfway between serious and amused.The sun caught in his dark hair, turning the edges of it warm and bright.“Again,” he said, tossing her a wooden practice blade.It spun clumsily through the air. Piper almost dropped it bef

    The campus felt louder than usual that morning.Not in the normal way, not the careless laughter or music spilling from someone’s speaker, but in the low, uneasy buzz of people trying to pretend nothing had happened while talking about nothing else.Cecil moved through the main hallway with her usual lowenthusiasm when no one was paying attention to her.Her bag slung over her shoulder, expression calm. Students clustered in tight circles, voices dropping when others passed too close.“…I swear I heard it, like an actual gunshot.”“No way,” another girl said. “Security said it was a car backfiring.”“My roommate saw police lights near the south gate.” the first girl added again“They said someone got hurt.”Another voice cut in from behind a row of other people. “My cousin heard a wolf howl after. Like, a real one.”A nervous laugh followed.Cecil didn’t slow. She walked past walls plastered with flyers and announcements, past groups leaning against walls with their phones out, scroll

    The inside of Archie’s car smelled like perfume and leather.Sharp and clean.Piper sat curled slightly into the passenger seat, her hands resting in her lap, fingers still faintly sticky from dried blood that wasn’t hers. The night air blew through the half-opened window, cool against her skin, but it didn’t touch the tight heaviness in her chest.Archie drove in silence.His knuckles were pale against the steering wheel, streaked with faint rust-colored stains that hadn’t fully washed off.The muscles in his jaw flexed every few seconds like he was holding something back, anger, grief, blame or maybe all three.Behind them, the guard's lifeless body was lying there, looking like he was only asleep. No one spoke.The hum of the car filled the space between them.Piper focused on small things instead of the faint ticking sound from the dashboard, the way the headlights stretched long shadows across empty streets, and the lingering smell of gunpowder that clung faintly to Archie’s jack

    Cecil’s fingers hovered over her phone, eyes glued to the screen as it had betrayed her. Package secured. One casualty. Target survived.” she reread out loud.She blinked, swallowing hard, trying to steady her breath. Her plan had been clean and clear. Cecil’s mind raced, refusing to pause long enough for rational thought.It was supposed to be just Piper. Just her. How did it end up like this? With someone dead.Her hand balled into a fist, the knuckles white beneath the soft glow from the moonlight.She had been careful. She had been patient. Everything had been planned to perfection. And yet, someone had died.Her thoughts shifted involuntarily to Celeste, the woman one she’d called earlier, the one who had ordered the operation in the first place.The woman whose voice could slice through steel and leave blood in its wake, whose cold, precise control had never wavered, and whose wrath she had experienced before.The memory crept in un: the hospital, sterile white lights, the shar

    Cecil didn’t look back after she turned the corner.She kept walking like she had somewhere important to be, swinging her bag against her hip, and humming under her breath like nothing in the world mattered to her.But the moment she was out of sight, her smile faded.Something had been off back there.The way Piper held her bag and the way Ember watched her too closely.The strange tension that had settled between them like a secret they were scared to say.Cecil pushed through the glass doors of the campus café, warm air wrapping around her instantly. The place was unusually loud for a cafe.Students talking over each other, smoothie glasses clinking and someone laughing too loudly near the soda machine.She ordered takeout without thinking too much about what she picked. Anything fast, anything that gave her an excuse to leave quickly.While she waited, she leaned against the counter and scrolled through her phone, pretending like she wasn’t replaying the last ten minutes over and
