I took a deep breath and steadied myself. Shaking off the remnants of my nightmare, I moved toward the bathtub, turning the shower on to let the hot water wash away the lingering unease.

Once I was clean, I wrapped myself in a plush towel and stepped in front of the mirror. My reflection stared back at me, pale but composed. I couldn't afford to look fragile. I couldn't afford to look like my nightmares.

I picked an elegant black pantsuit from my wardrobe, pairing it with a silk blouse in a muted shade of blue. The structured blazer sat perfectly on my shoulders, a protective armor of its own. After fastening a delicate silver bracelet around my wrist, I slipped on a pair of sleek heels.

My fingers worked through my hair, styling it into a sophisticated low bun—sharp, professional, controlled. Light makeup followed—just enough to conceal the exhaustion beneath my eyes. A soft nude lipstick finished the look.

With one last glance in the mirror, I straightened my posture. Whatev

  • Stuck Between Two Alphas   She is the Key

    Midnight TruthsThe sun-keepers stood in a circle around the sanctum, their gold-threaded robes glittering faintly in the pale light of a hundred floating lanterns. The chamber smelled of frankincense and ash, of ancient oil and blood memory. The midnight air was heavy with reverence.Above them, the ceiling of the Hall of Veils had been pulled back with magic—revealing a slice of the black sky streaked with dying stars. Moonlight spilled into the center of the room like a silver altar.At the heart of it, barefoot and cloaked in ceremonial white, stood Shina.The veil was open.The energy thrummed low and slow, like a beast inhaling. The runes on the floor shimmered softly. Candles danced without wind. And all around them, the world held its breath.A voice from the edge of the circle spoke. “The realm of the dead listens, Priestess. Speak now.”Shina raised her chin, her voice steady, though her bones trembled from exhaustion and revelation.“I seek the spirit of Mireya of the Light

    Shina’s voice dropped like steel.“Then come, sister. Take your victory. Step through.”Dina didn’t move. But her smile never faltered.“Oh no, Shina,” she whispered. “I don’t need to cross the gate. The moment Leo begs for me…” She leaned in closer.“The gate will open itself.”“You don’t want the throne anymore,” Shina said, watching her. “So what do you want? Why are you really here?”Dina’s smile widened. “Oh, I just came to say hello… here too.”Shina narrowed her eyes. “Here too? Where else have you been?”Dina tilted her head like a mocking doll. Her voice dipped into a sing-song pitch that twisted the air.“I’ll never tell.”Shina’s fists flared with soft blue fire.“Whatever you’ve started,” she said, “it ends here. With you and I.”Dina chuckled. “You really think you can stop what’s already begun? The King is spiraling into madness, your palace is bleeding faith, and your people whisper that the Priestess of Light has already failed.”“You’re wrong.”Dina leaned in, the sil

    Leo Ashton’s PalaceThe candles in the war room burned low.Scrolls were sprawled across the table—spells, failed remedies, desperate prayers etched in trembling hands. The silence in the room was brittle, ready to break.“Every healer has tried,” Zane muttered, his voice thick with frustration. “Every priest. Every potion. And still your sister’s curse burns through him like wildfire.”“He’s not just cursed,” Shina said quietly. “He’s consumed.”Zane turned to her. The flickering flame carved harsh lines on his face, shadows pooling under his eyes. He hadn’t slept properly in weeks. He couldn’t afford to—not when the King of the realm snarled like a beast behind sealed doors, eyes blackened with a hunger that wasn't his.“He doesn’t recognize me anymore,” Zane whispered, voice fraying. “Not even his Beta. The man I would’ve died for is gone, Shina. You’re our last hope at this point.”Before she could speak, a blast of wind slammed the war room doors wide open.“Beta Zane! Priestess

  • Stuck Between Two Alphas   Let Them Burn

    The restroom door clicked shut behind them.Dim light flickered overhead. Peeling wallpaper. A cracked mirror. The stench of disinfectant didn’t quite mask the mildew in the corners, but none of that mattered to her. For the girl, it felt like the spotlight was solely on her. Her gaze locked on Dante like a woman already drunk on fantasy.To her, this was spontaneous. Risky. Electric.To him?This was war.He pressed her back against the sink, caging her in with one arm while the other slipped her duffel from her shoulder and tossed it aside. She gasped. Not from fear—no, from excitement. The girl was trembling with anticipation. Her cheeks flushed, lips parted in that naive, breathless expression he’d seen a thousand times before.Dante leaned in close, letting his breath fan against her neck."You matter, you know that?" he whispered silkily, tracing a finger down her throat. "You're not like the others."A lie. He’d used it before.His eyes, dark and intense, held hers, making her

    DANTEShe was gone.Days had passed. Then a week. And Lila—the woman who shared his hunger, his vision, his vengeance—hadn’t returned.Lila was supposed to come back. They had a plan.Destroy Richard and Marcus Blackwood. Share the crown of chaos together.But she didn’t return.Dante told himself it was part of the plan. Maybe she went underground. Maybe she was lying low until the dust settled from the last time.But deep down…He knew better.Something was wrong.At first, he ignored the tug in his chest. The dull ache. The itching pull of something missing. He was human, not a wolf like her. His instincts were supposed to be logical. Controlled.But Lila? She wasn’t just his partner.She was his addiction.His match in madness.His anchor to the world.And now the cord was fraying.The hunt began the moment the doubt entered his mind. He mobilized his men—low-tier criminals, deserters, mercs, and junkies. People who owed him. People too scared to ask questions.He pulled out a pho

  • Stuck Between Two Alphas   The Other One

    Lila’s POVI can’t feel my hand.No—I don’t have a hand.The pain is unbearable, but it’s not the worst part.The worst part is the silence now that the crowd is gone. No more curses. No more stones. No more mocking children.Just the steady drip of blood and the sound of my own breath—sharp, uneven, like my chest is trying to rip itself open.They threw me in the old kennels. Where mutts used to sleep. Where strays were dumped. The floor is damp with piss and mold, and my blood is mixing with it like ink spreading through water.I lie there, half-curled, the stump of my right arm wrapped tightly in rags that already reek. It pulses with agony, and each throb is a cruel reminder of what they took from me.They stared at me like I was a monster.But I’m not the only monster.They forget she and I were born of the same womb.The same face.The same blood.The same scream.We were twins.And they always, always loved her more.I remember the way Aria used to smile when we were kids.
