THE ALPHA'S NAUGHTY LITTLE CHRISTMAS GIFT. Chapter 61: FRIDA'S DECEIT.
Walking through the Alpha's High Point, Kai sees that torches are burning along the entrance despite the afternoon light.The great hall holds hundreds, and today it holds all of them.Pack members fill the floor, shoulder to shoulder, faces tilted forward. The council stands in a raised semicircle to the left. Garren's army lines the walls in full dress uniform, still as pillars, chests lifted, eyes fixed forward.Garren takes the front.The hall goes silent so completely it feels like a held breath."There are moments," he begins, his voice moving through the room without effort, "that a pack carries in its bones long after the day itself is gone."He pauses. His eyes move across the hall slowly."My son left Beacon Hill as a young man." He turns, just briefly, to look at Kai directly. "He left without the send-off he deserved."Kai swallows. The memory of the gate flashes through him. He can still hear it closing."Without — " he grinds his jaw — "enough of his father."The hall is
THE ALPHA'S NAUGHTY LITTLE CHRISTMAS GIFT. Chapter 60: HOME.
As the morning sun rises the following day, they arrive at Beacon Hill.Their helicopter descends onto the airfield where their vehicles await. Exhausted, they step out of the helicopter and into the cars. Frida has arranged all transportation, ensuring it's comfortable for everyone. IIvy turns the empty water bottle upside down over her mouth anyway. Not even a drop comes out.She lets it fall into her lap. Her lips feel cracked.Her hair is still tied back, but half of it has escaped. Strands cling to her neck and cheek. She brushes them away once. They fall right back. She leaves them there.Beyond the window, forests roll past in endless stretches of green.She watches them without seeing them.Kai hasn't spoken in forty minutes. His thumb keeps dragging back and forth across the seam of his jeans. He doesn't seem aware he's doing it.Every few minutes his eyes lift to the road ahead before dropping again. The closer they get, the tighter his jaw becomes.Jackson sits with both h
THE ALPHA'S NAUGHTY LITTLE CHRISTMAS GIFT. Chapter 59: TOGETHER. NOT APART.
The ride is eerily quiet. Kai absentmindedly stares out the window at the familiar landscape. The routes he’s taken before are like old wounds—recognizable, dull in places, but sharp when he least expects it. He remembers driving these roads when he was younger, when the world around him was different.It was alive.Now, he watches ruin after ruin slip past the glass: buildings stripped down to their frames, storefronts boarded up or abandoned entirely, nature already taking back its territory—weeds breaking through concrete and vines climbing what used to be walls. Swathes of land that should be filled with homes and bustling markets are empty. Hollowed out.His uncle had longed for this day, believed in it until his last moments.Kai clenches his jaw.His mother is somewhere—or nowhere. He still can’t tell which, and that uncertainty inflicts its own slow damage on him.He pushes away the thought that his father might have harmed her. He refuses to jump to conclusions until he can

Kai's chamber is quiet when they arrive. Two servants are near the far wall, folding linens, but Kai barely glances at them."Out."They leave before the door clicks shut. Jackson stands in the center of the room, arms crossed, observing Kai as he approaches the wardrobe with stillness.He has been holding his emotions back for two hours and is now deciding how much to let it show.Kai begins to unbutton his shirt."You could have told me," Jackson says. "I could have.""But you didn't."Jackson's jaw tightens. "Again, I'm always the last to know. I walk into that council room and find out along with everyone else that we're packing up and leaving—Elias is taking over." He shakes his head. "You never discuss anything with me before you act.""Because this way is better." Kai slips his shirt off one shoulder. "Better for whom?" "For everyone. The fewer people who know in advance, the smoother the execution.""That's not leadership, Kai. That's control." Jackson steps closer. "And yo

By the time Elias, Eliana, and Kai are done, the little hut feels smaller than it did an hour ago.Ivy stands in the middle of the room, her arms crossed tight over her chest, her jaw aggressively chewing at nothing.They told her everything.The pack she never knew existed. The massacre — names, faces, fire. The fact that she wasn't born into an ordinary quiet life but dragged out of a burning one. And Kai's visit to her parents before the surprise this morning, the conversation that happened behind her back while she slept in his arms thinking, foolishly, that she knew the shape of her own life.All eyes are on her as Ivy stops pacing."How come," she breathes through her nose, "none of you told me anything?"Elias moves the small side chair out of his way and rises to his full height."Ivy—""You ran, Dad."Her voice shakes on the last word due to anger that has nowhere left to go."You left your entire pack. Your people. You saved your own head and called it protection."Her eyes

Hours later, Ivy is almost nearly passing out from exhaustion when Kai kisses her."It's time," he whispers into her ear.Stretching and wincing from the ache emitting from parts of her, "time for what?" she asks."You'll see."Ivy tries to sit properly as she bounces on something but her head hits something and her pussy hurts from the sudden intense movement."Ouch! What was—" her words die in her throat as the bouncing gets more intense and she looks around.Somehow, she's in a car, sitting next to Kai who holds her dearly, a blanket wrapping her body.She's also dressed in a comfy jeans and top."First of all," she shifts back to be able to see Kai's face, which is barely helping since it's pitch black. "Where are we? How did we get here? How am I in clothes?" She asks all at once.Kai's lips curve."We're in a car.""I can see that.""I carried you out after you fell asleep. Cleaned you up and changed your clothes."Ivy blinks."And I didn't wake up?""You were knocked out from e

The basket slips from Numenessa's hands, spilling herbs across the ground. She stands still, not out of fear. Her eyes catch her reflection.The river that flows through her garden is clear tonight, with moonlight transforming its surface into liquid silver. And there, looking back at her, is a fac

"I just arrived," she blurts out, the words rushing from her. "I couldn't sleep, so I went for a walk and... well, I think I got lost—""Lost?" Jackson’s smirk is knowing, almost teasing. "You know this mansion's layout, Ivy."Her cheeks flush with embarrassment. She opens her mouth to argue, but K

"You don't trust yourself in her care. You think you'll lose control during her training when she gets sweaty," his lips graze Jackson's throat as he speaks softly, "when those curves press against her clothes." His voice drops to an intimate whisper. "You’ll be distracted watching her move. Watchi

Every Lieutenant rises from their seats and, one by one, kneels before Kai. Heads bowed, fists pressed to their hearts. This is a tradition, ancient and unbreakable.Kai has always been the Alpha, yes, but he was once without a mate. Incomplete. Vulnerable in ways an Alpha should never be. Now, wit
