MasukCHAPTER 84 ELENA’S FATHER’S POVI had spent years convincing myself that silence was protection, but standing before Elena now, I finally understood how badly that lie had failed us. She was no longer the little girl I had hidden behind locked doors. She was a mother, a mate, and a woman strong enough to demand every truth.“Years ago, our family started receiving threats,” I confessed, lowering my eyes as the memories returned. “They wanted information about the Thorne bloodline, and we knew refusing them could put everyone in danger. I was terrified of losing your mother, losing you, and watching our family disappear because of something we never chose.”Elena stared at me without speaking, and somehow her silence hurt more than anger would have. “So you went to Adrian Vale?” she finally asked, her voice quiet as she folded her arms tightly across her chest. “You went to the man who was searching for our bloodline and asked him to protect us?”“I did,” I admitted, forcing myself to
CHAPTER 83 ELENA’S POVI entered the questioning room with Xander beside me, already feeling that something was wrong. The former Silver Veil member sat between two guards, his face pale and his hands shaking. He refused to look at me, and that alone made my stomach tighten. He knew something about me, something nobody had wanted me to discover.“Tell me why The Founder wanted my bloodline,” I demanded, stepping closer while keeping my eyes fixed on the prisoner. “You know who he is, and you know what happened to me. I am done listening to people protect me with lies. I want the truth, and I want you to tell me everything you know.”The prisoner swallowed hard before finally raising his eyes toward me. Fear filled his face, and for a moment, I almost felt sorry for him. Then I remembered everything I had suffered because people kept hiding things from me. “You should not ask about The Founder,” he warned, lowering his voice as his hands trembled.“I'm not asking because I want to,” I
CHAPTER 82 THE FOUNDER’S POVI sat alone in the darkness, listening to the quiet footsteps approaching my room. The door opened slowly, and one of my messengers entered with several sealed reports. “We received new information from Gerafil,” he announced carefully, placing the documents before me. “Everything you were waiting for has finally happened, Founder.”I looked at the papers without touching them immediately. “Leave,” I ordered calmly, keeping my eyes on the sealed reports. “I want to read these alone.” The messenger bowed quickly and disappeared through the doorway, closing it behind him. Only after his footsteps faded did I reach for the first report.The first page carried Elena's name, and a small smile touched my lips. “So, after all these years, you finally reached this point,” I murmured, slowly reading through every detail. “A daughter, a hidden chamber, an ancient marking, and blood that has finally responded.”I continued reading, learning that Elena's daughter had
CHAPTER 81 XANDER’S POVThe meeting had barely started when a warrior entered my study with urgent news. “Alpha, we captured someone near the eastern border,” he reported, standing straight before my desk. “He was carrying a Silver Veil symbol, and he tried to escape when our patrol found him.”“Bring him here,” I ordered immediately, pushing my chair back while my wolf stirred at the mention of Silver Veil. “If that man knows anything about what happened to Elena, I want him questioned before anyone else gets the chance to silence him.”Minutes later, two warriors dragged the prisoner into the room, his wrists tied tightly behind him. He looked exhausted, but the fear in his eyes told me he understood exactly where he was and why I wanted answers.“You worked for Silver Veil,” I stated, walking slowly around him while studying his face. “Don't waste my time denying it. We know what your organization did to Elena, and I want to know how far your involvement with her bloodline actuall
CHAPTER 80 ELENA’S POVI refused to let fear control me after we returned to the palace. My daughter was safe, but the strange mark beneath her shoulder kept troubling me, especially after everything we discovered beneath Gerafil. I needed answers before my imagination created worse possibilities.“Please examine her again,” I asked the healer, carefully placing my daughter on the soft examination bed while watching every movement. “I need you to tell me exactly what that mark is, and I want the truth, even if you think I won't like it.”The healer nodded calmly and began checking my daughter's breathing, heartbeat, temperature, and skin. “I understand your concern,” she assured me, carefully examining the mark beneath the baby's shoulder. “But I don't see anything that suggests she's sick or in immediate danger.”I watched her closely as she gently touched the skin surrounding the mark. “Then what is it?” I asked, my voice tightening as I looked between the healer and my sleeping da
CHAPTER 79 XANDER’S POVI stood over the ancient records, refusing to believe that everything written on those dusty pages was simply a prediction of something waiting to happen. The more I read, the more I noticed the same names, symbols, warnings, and events appearing across different generations. This wasn't one prophecy describing one future. It looked like a cycle, and somehow, Elena and our daughter had become part of it.“What exactly happened to the people mentioned in these records?” I asked, turning another brittle page carefully while keeping my eyes on the faded writing. “Were they protected by their families, or were they hunted the same way Elena was hunted?”Wren stepped closer to the table, her face still pale from everything we had discovered. “Some of them disappeared,” she explained quietly, looking over the records with obvious fear. “Others were taken by powerful groups who wanted their abilities, and some were never found again.”Her answer made my jaw tighten a
