THE WRONG VOW, MY PERFECT ALPHA Chapter 52: Silenced
LENA“Excuse me?” I was beyond offended.“You heard me.”“No, I heard you accuse me of being stupid after someone tried to poison me.”His expression didn’t shift. “If it helps, I’ve been thinking it for days.”I stared at him in disbelief. “You are unbelievable.”“And you are reckless.”“I am not reckless.”“You accepted food from a woman who hates you.”
THE WRONG VOW, MY PERFECT ALPHA Chapter 51: Suspicion
LENA“Who is it?” I asked.Varik looked at Kael first. “A summit server named Dorian. He was assigned to the east kitchens tonight.”Kael’s face remained unreadable. “Bring him.”The guard hesitated and that made my stomach sink.“He’s not here, Alpha.”Silence.Kael’s eyes narrowed. “Explain.”The guard swallowed. “When we went to fetch him, his quarters were empty. But we found a pouch of coin hi
THE WRONG VOW, MY PERFECT ALPHA Chapter 50: Hunt
LENAFor one terrible moment after reading the note, I couldn’t breathe. The words blurred beneath my fingers, then sharpened again as though my eyes refused to decide whether they wanted to understand what I was seeing.‘If the wolfsbane didn’t work, perhaps the next thing will.’My stomach turned so violently I thought I might be sick right there at the table.The dining hall around me was still alive with noise… glasses clinking, low conversation drifting between tables, servants moving through the aisles with silver trays in hand, but all of it suddenly sounded far away, muffled, as though someone had shoved me underwater.‘Not everyone at this summit wants you alive.’I read that line again and again, each time hoping the words would change into something less horrifying.They didn’t. Slowly, I lifted my head and Kael was already standing.The movement had been so quiet I hadn’t even noticed it, but the effect on the room was immediate. Conversations thinned and several nearby no
THE WRONG VOW, MY PERFECT ALPHA Chapter 49: Plain Sight
LENAThe summit grounds were bright beneath the morning sun, but whatever calm the day might have offered was ruined by the fact that Kael was indeed following me but it was close enough to make it obvious to everyone else, but close enough that every time I slowed down or turned around, there he was watching, existing and. Ring impossible. After ten minutes, I stopped in the middle of a garden path and turned to face him.He stopped too.“This is ridiculous.”“No,” he said. “It’s necessary.”“It’s irritating.”“That too.”I folded my arms. “I’m going to a courtyard full of nobles in broad daylight, not marching into enemy territory.”“Those are often the same thing.”I stared at him for a moment, then sighed because unfortunately, that also sounded true. “Do I at least get to know where you’ve assigned the guards?”“No.”“Why not?”“Because if you know where they are, you’ll look for them.”“That is absolutely something I would do.”“I know.”That answer annoyed me more than it shou
THE WRONG VOW, MY PERFECT ALPHA Chapter 48: Watched
LENAI did not sleep and it wasn’t because I didn’t try. Goddess knows I tried very hard, I closed my eyes, turned onto my left side, then my right, then onto my back, then back to my left again as if changing positions might somehow trick my brain into shutting down. It did not.Because apparently being told that someone had poisoned your dessert was not the kind of information a person could simply hear and then sleep peacefully through.Who knew? By the time dawn finally crept through the curtains, I had managed perhaps ten minutes of actual rest and even that had been interrupted by dreams involving tarts, knives and Kael glaring at me while I died in an extremely inconvenient manner.When I finally gave up and dragged myself out of bed, I looked exactly how I felt… terrible.I stared at my reflection while pinning back my hair and sighed. “You look haunted.”My reflection offered no useful feedback. After another moment, I leaned closer, checking for any sign that I had, in fact,
THE WRONG VOW, MY PERFECT ALPHA Chapter 47: The Residue
KAELI stayed in the study long after he was gone, staring at reports I wasn’t reading and hearing none of the noise from the corridor outside. My thoughts kept circling back to the same impossible point.Lena should have been sick.The fact that she wasn’t made the entire thing more dangerous, not less. If someone had poisoned her and failed, they might try again. If they realized she hadn’t noticed anything was wrong, they would assume they still had time.And Lena, being Lena, would probably accept another dessert from the same hand just to avoid seeming rude.I swore under my breath and pushed away from the desk.By the time I reached her room, the corridor was quiet.A single lantern burned near her door, throwing warm light across the stone. I knocked once, then opened it without waiting for permission because if Lena was asleep, she would forgive me eventually or she wouldn’t. Either way, I didn’t care.The room was dark except for moonlight spilling across the bed.Lena was un
THE WRONG VOW, MY PERFECT ALPHA Chapter 9: Trespassing
LENAThe healer arrived just after sunrise, when the estate still felt half-asleep and the light outside the windows was pale enough to make everything inside the room look colder than it already was.I was sitting on the edge of the bed when she entered, hands folded neatly in my lap as though I h
THE WRONG VOW, MY PERFECT ALPHA Chapter 8: The Quiet Room
LENAThe room felt too big for one person, not because it was empty, but because everything inside it had been arranged with the kind of precision that made it impossible to feel I wasn’t being watched even when no one was there.Black drapes framed tall windows that overlooked the forest. The bed
THE WRONG VOW, MY PERFECT ALPHA Chapter 7: Blood Oath
LENA“DOWN!” Commander Varik’s voice thundered across the room as wolves lunged into motion around us.The bullet tore past my face so closely that heat grazed my skin before it buried itself into the stone wall behind me. Glass shattered everywhere. People shouted over one another while guards ove
THE WRONG VOW, MY PERFECT ALPHA Chapter 6: The East Hall
LENAMy stomach twisted the entire walk to the east hall. Maren walked half a step ahead of me, her posture stiff and composed while two guards followed behind us in complete silence. The mansion looked different in daylight, less haunted and more dangerous.Last night, fear had blurred everything
