Forty-five minutes.

She had forty-five minutes to execute her plan perfectly.

The moment she opened the doors of the aquarium and the night air brushed against her face, something in her changed.

It was subtle at first. Her shoulders slackened and she stepped forward slowly, almost like she was being controlled.

She didn't act like someone who was leaving after a pleasant visit. Her movements were strangely detached and her gaze remained fixed somewhere far ahead, not really seeing th

  • THE ALMEGA'S TWISTED OBSESSION    Chapter 80

    By the time Kael and Harlan rounded the corner, the black SUV was already waiting for them, engine humming low. The driver, one of his warriors, nodded once from behind the wheel as Kael approached.He got into the passenger seat, while Harlan took the back, and with that, they drove off, another car with few warriors in it, following right behind them. Trees loomed on either side, their branches arching overhead like a natural tunnel as they drove past. Harlan glanced at Kael once, then out the window, his fingers drumming a slow rhythm on his knee. He knew how triggering a topic like framing and betrayal was for Kael. It was one of the things he hated, and now it had come back. Soon, they hit the Nightwind border as full dusk settled, the sky a bruised purple with the sun's glow reduced to a thin line on the horizon. Headlights from both sides illuminated the meeting point: a cluster of five figures already waiting. Guards flanked an elder, their postured rigid but weapons lowere

    As soon as Morvienne finished dressing, slipping into a simple gown that hugged her recovering frame just enough to make her feel put-together, she turned to Kael with a quick nod. He held the door open for her, his hand brushing the small of her back as they stepped out together.Maids moved about their evening routines as they walked down the stairs, some carrying trays of food, others wiping down surfaces, and many more. Their eyes flicked to Kael first, respectful and quick, then lingered a beat longer on Morvienne, curiosity mixing with something else, probably approval.Morvienne caught one of the older maid's glance, a faint smile tugging at the corners of her mouth before the woman hurried on.Walking out through the main doors, the evening air greeted them like a gentle exhale. It was cool against her skin, carrying the scent she always craved for. Morvienne closed her eyes for a second, tilting her face up as a light breeze tugged at loose strands of her hair, lifting them

    The following days passed with Kael always by her side, his presence a constant, reassuring warmth in the quiet confines of his room. He hovered near her whenever she stirred, his strong hands always ready to support her elbow if she so much as shifted on the bed. When she reached for a glass of water, he'd beat her to it, lifting it to her lips with a steady grip, his eyes locking onto hers until she took a sip and nodded her thanks. And just like that, her belongings began to move into his space bit by bit, a pair of her slippers, a small vial of her favorite scent, her clothes, and many more. Kael wouldn't let her lift a finger for anything strenuous. Even meals became like intimate rituals where he would sit beside her on the bed, cutting fruits into bite-sized pieces and holding them to her mouth, watching her chew and also joining her to eat them as they talked about so many things. At night, his eyes would flutter open at the slightest hitch in her breath, his hand slidin

    Coming out of the bathroom and walking toward the bed, Kael's eyes sought Morvienne out immediately, locking onto her form nestled against the pillows, her chest rising and falling in a slow rhythm that eased the knot in his gut. He stopped and stood at a distance for some minutes, drinking in the sight of her—pale but peaceful, the earlier tears leaving only a subtle sheen on her cheeks."...Hope you're not crying anymore," he said calmly, walking to reach her. He paused at the bedside, his gaze tracing the delicate lines of her face with meticulous care, and lingering on the curve of her lips. His hand twitched at his side, as if resisting the urge to reach out just yet. "And if it hurts, tell me. I'll get the healer here immediately."Morvienne's head tilted ever so slightly on the pillow, a gentle shake that sent a loose strand tumbling across her forehead. Her lips curved into a small, tentative smile, the kind that lit her eyes with a spark of warmth despite the lingering fatig

    Morvienne's gaze lifted to meet his with a haze of confusion softening the edges of her vision. Her brows knit together faintly, a small furrow forming between them as she tilted her head just a fraction against the pillow.The movement sent a dull ache radiating through her shoulder, but she ignored it, her lips parting on a hesitant breath. "What... is it?" she murmured, her voice a fragile whisper that trembled at the edges, laced with uncertainty. Her eyes roamed his face, tracing the tight set of his jaw. "What—" she swallowed softly, "what did I do?"Kael held her stare for a long moment. Then, without a word, he pushed himself up from the edge of the bed, the mattress shifting under his weight with a soft creak. His hand extended toward the bowl, water sloshing faintly inside as he lifted it."Rest," he said quietly, his tone even, almost detached, though a subtle roughness edged the word. "I'll be back."He started walking toward the bathroom, the first step pulling him away

    It was strange, yes— but not enough to hold his attention for long."Some kind of oil, perhaps. Medicinal," he thought. "Or something she used for herself." A quiet breath left him, and without another thought, he set the bottle back where he had found it, his attention shifting back to getting the dresses. He picked out another one that looked just as good as the first, even softer, thinner, and easier to slip on without causing her pain. "Good," he muttered. Without another glance at the bottles, he turned and left the room.Warm air met him first as he walked into his room, followed by the faint scent of clean water and damp cloth. The room was still, calm—but not empty. Lina stood near the bed, her hands clasped lightly before her, and her gaze fixed on Morvienne. Concern was clear on her face, her brows slightly drawn, and lips pressed together as though holding back worry she did not dare voice aloud.At the sound of the door, she turned quickly. Relief flickered across her

    "Miss Morvienne?" Lina called to her from outside the bathroom door. "Miss Morvienne, are you done? It's 7:40 PM and the Alpha will be here soon.""Coming!" Morvienne called back.A few minutes passed before the bathroom door finally opened and she stepped out. Lina had been helping her get ready

    Dinner went well as usual, even better as they both didn't bother with the usual manners of just sitting, eating quietly, and saying little things to each other, or nothing at all. Tonight, they ate, talked, laughed, smiled, and enjoyed their meals together, and sometimes, plates were ignored as th

    "Morvienne, Morvienne." She heard her name called softly, someone gently shaking her. Slowly, she opened her eyes, blinking a few times as she tried to focus. "Morvienne," the voice said again, more insistently."Kael?" she asked as she immediately recognized the voice, her own voice still heavy w

    "Someone decided to join me today," Kael said in a softly amused tone as Morvienne walked into the dining room.She paused for half a second, then smiled."I did," she said softly. "Good morning, Alpha Kael. May I join you?"Kael looked up at her, his gaze lingering a little longer."Good morning,
