LOGINIan's p.o.v
I kept quiet, staring at the lady coldly because I could only think of two things and that was. One, I was either relatively exhausted that I was seeing things that weren't real or my hearing wasn't at its best peak
"Axel, did she growl at us, and is she glaring at us right now?" I asked silently to be certain that I wasn't the only one seeing shit.
He huffed then retreated into our subconscious without a word.
His actions were rather old than pleasing ever since meeting the girl who claimed to be our mate. If it was any other girl doing the very same thing, he could have taken over and ripped her into pieces for her fucked up disrespect. But here he was, retreating and acting deaf. What was his fucking problem. Was he growing soft towards the slut because she looked innocent and pitiful?. Either way, I wasn't having that.
I pulled up my trousers and my zip without taking my eyes off of her. She had a glare across her face that was directed towards the trashy girl who was still kneeling in front of me.
I moved closer and stood in front of her calmly.
As calm as I was, I hated her disrespect so damn much.
She slightly lowered her gaze to the ground for a second but looked up to meet mine. Her eyes held anger and something else I couldn't quite pinpoint.
She opened her mouth to speak when I lifted my hand and slapped her hard across the face.
She groaned in pain and quickly covered her cheek with her hand as tears filled her eyes instantly.
Her hair was slightly ruffled and her hands trembling.
I could feel Axel's emotions yet I chose to ignore them. He was conflicted between getting angry with me or standing on my side.
I couldn't understand why he was acting like this, but I knew who the cause was, and that was the slut in front of me.
She dropped her hand slowly as tears rolled on her cheeks.
I inhaled quickly and exhaled then walked out of the room before I could do anything I didn't want to or might regret.
There was a slight twig of pain and an unexplainable feeling invading my heart. It was as if I felt bad for acting the way I did to her.
I stopped moving on the stairs and laughed softly like I was a crazy mad man.
"There is no way I feel bad. It is anger that I feel for her disrespect." I spat to myself then continued to walk downstairs.
Immediately I came outside and a smirk formed across my face.
The scent of fresh blood still filled the air and I could clearly hear screams.
"It's refreshing isn't it?" Neo asked from behind.
I turned and faced him with folded arms.
"You know how much I love to hunt and watch my prey suffer." I answered simply.
"Fancy anything in this pack?" He asked with a raised brow.
I kept quiet and brushed my hand through my hair.
Neo grew up by my side. Although we hated to admit it openly. We were more of brothers than friends. He understood me clearly and served me without question. Nothing went past him and he made sure everything went according to plan.
"A girl caught my attention." I answered in a low tone as he widened his eyes in disbelief.
"I don't mean it in that way, damn it." I quickly said.
"Then what did you mean alpha?" He asked.
"My woman has been serving me and you nicely hasn't she?. To top it all up she's got a good pussy. Don't you think she deserves a trophy of victory from another pack." I answered seriously.
He kept quiet for a second then signed loudly.
"She does. But if we are talking about trophies then jewelry would make her happier because she has a lot of underlings serving her." He answered, getting my full attention.
"You seem to know a little too well what my possession would love to have as a trophy, why is that?" I asked seriously.
It's not that I was jealous over them fucking and whispering useless promises in each other's ears. I was asking to keep a check on his loyalty. I needed him to remember who he was serving with his whole being. If I felt that his loyalty was being dragged to her I wasn't going to hesitate in ripping him apart.
"I'm your beta alpha, one of my jobs is to advise you correctly. Forgive me if I gave you doubts over my loyalty." He answered with a slight bow.
"Very well, but still do have that girl upstairs in the pack house serve her." I said.
"You mean the alpha's daughter?" He asked.
"No, there is another girl in the office upstairs. She's very stubborn and seems to piss me off with her every move. I don't want her dead because she does spark my interest a little bit. That's why I want you to gift her to my woman as her slave. I want to see how long she can last in my pack before she breaks down and wishes to take her own life." I answered with a smile.
Just the thought of breaking her mentality made me feel happy.
I hated her claim of us being mated and how she had an effect on Axel, I also didn't like the disrespect that she had and the fake courage that she fairly portrayed in front of me.
I wanted her to suffer and break down. I wanted her ruined and broken from inside out.
"Consider it done alpha." He answered.
"Good, now inform everyone to wrap everything up. We have fulfilled what we came for. Now it's time to go back home and have the best party of all time like always." I said happily as he smiled then turned and walked back to where the warriors were.
Daisy’s POVI woke slowly, wrapped in warmth that felt heavier than sleep.For a moment, I didn’t move. I just breathed. My body felt rested in a way I had never known before—satisfied yet pleasantly sore.When I turned, I held my breath; Levi was next to me, already awake.He was propped on one elbow beside me, his hair slightly mussed, his eyes gazing into mine softly as he smiled down at me.“Good morning,” he murmured.Memory crashed into me all at once: his hands, the way they moved, his voice, the way he had said my name like it was heaven. Heat rushed to my face so fast that I grabbed the blanket and pulled it over my head.“Oh my God,” I groaned. “Don’t look at me.”A soft laugh followed. “Daisy.”“No,” I insisted from under the blanket. “I refuse to exist for the next five minutes.”He chuckled again, closer this time, and then the blanket was gently tugged down.“Hey,” he said softly. “You’re allowed to look at me.”I peeked out just enough to see him smiling, and before I c
Daisy’s POVThe bath helped… but only on the surface.Hot water slid down my skin, carrying away the sweat and fatigue I felt. I leaned back against the tub, my eyes closed, breathing slowly.My wolf was restless for some unknown reason, and I wondered if it was because of Gilbert.When I finally stepped out, I dressed quickly and stepped out only to find Levi waiting outside the door like he’d been standing guard the whole time.“You okay?” he asked softly, his eyes scanning me as if he were checking for wounds I couldn’t see.“I will be,” I answered. “I need to see them.”He sighed softly. “Gilbert?”“Yes, and the others.”He nodded once and grabbed my hand, linking it to his.The walk to the dungeon was quiet, and it was exactly what I needed to distract myself from thinking about the dream.When we reached the cells, the sight waiting for us made my steps slow.Gilbert was slumped against the iron bars, chains biting into his wrists. His skin was pale, and sweat clung to his templ
Daisy’s POVThe pack grounds were still a mess long after the portal closed.Dust clung to the air. Blood stained the earth in ugly patches. Injured warriors groaned softly where they had been left. No one spoke above a whisper.Ian, the twin, Amelia, Kyle, Dusk… all of them were gone.And now the mess was mine to handle.I stood at the center of the grounds, Levi just a step behind me. I could feel every pair of eyes on my back: fear, guilt, and expectation—somehow twisted in a form of hope.My wolf finally stirred and let out a low growl. She had been watching everything with quiet judgment, and now she wanted us to fix everything without showing any form of fear or weakness.“Where is he?” I asked calmly.No one answered.I turned slowly, letting my gaze settle on a trembling warrior. “Where is Gilbert?”He swallowed hard. “Hiding in the… the dungeon, Alpha. He also locked up Elder Alina.”He really was a freaking pest.“Levi,” I said quietly. “Stay here.”He caught my wrist gently
Kyle’s POV“You just wanted to show off, didn’t you, Dad?” I asked the moment we stepped fully out of the portal and the magic sealed behind us.The air of our pack hit my lungs, grounding and alive. Yet the lingering echo of battle still clung to my skin, humming under it like leftover lightning.“Ian did,” Father Axel’s calm voice echoed through the pack mind-link. “And he wanted us to exercise.”I snorted softly, though pride warmed my chest. Typical Dad. If there was an excuse to demonstrate dominance, power, and remind the world why our pack stood at the top—he would take it.Still, something felt… different.I scanned the clearing, my brows knitting together when I didn’t immediately sense him nearby.“Father,” I called through the mind-link again, more carefully this time. “It’s been a long time.”There was a pause.Then—warmth.“I’ll be with you shortly,” he replied.The moment his voice faded, Lionel surged inside me, his very existence practically making it known how happy h
Daisy’s POV“We have to get back to my pack,” I said firmly to Alpha Kyle.We were grateful—truly—for the hospitality, for the protection, and for the alliance. But my chest felt tight the longer we stayed. My wolf was restless, pacing quietly inside me, and I could feel Levi’s unease too. He hadn’t complained once, but I knew him. Home pulled at him the same way it pulled at me.Kyle studied me for a moment before nodding slowly. “Will you be passing through Lui’s pack?” he asked.“No,” I answered without hesitation. “We’ll be driving straight back home.”Something flickered in his eyes, like he was thoughtful about something. He reached into his pocket and pulled out his phone, calling someone.“Yes, Uncle. It’s me,” he said calmly as he turned slightly away. “Can you come by? Now, if you don’t mind.”He ended the call before I could even ask who he was speaking to and slipped the phone back into his pocket like nothing unusual had just happened.I barely had time to react before th
Gilbert’s POV“Is everyone important here?” I asked at the top of my voice as I scanned the pack members gathered around the training field.They stood in small clusters—warriors and a few omegas. Their faces were marked with concern, curiosity, and unease. I could smell it on them: doubt, fear, and confusion.That was good because that's exactly what I wanted from them. Confusion made people easy to lead.“Well, not everyone,” one of the warriors answered. “Alina refuses to come.”I snorted. “To hell with that old hag. She’s just a useless omega, and soon she will kick the bucket.”The field went quiet.A few heads snapped up. Others shifted uncomfortably. I smiled slowly, enjoying the way tension spread.“What?” I continued, raising my voice. “Just because she’s been clinging to that healer and kissing Daisy’s feet doesn’t make her important. It doesn’t make her superior to me or any other warrior here. She's a dumb, old omega.”Murmurs broke out immediately.“Don’t look at me like
