Alpha Williams’ POV

“Is that smoke?” Justin’s question snapped me out of my thoughts.

Derek rushed to the window first. I followed, my eyes scanning the roofs of the houses in the distance.

I found the smoke Justin mentioned, Balor’s vision closed in. He found the fire.

“Someone's cooking outside with wood.”

“A campfire?”

“Yes.” Balor answered.

Derek nudged me when he tried to look in my direction. “Where is the fire?, I don't see it.”

Justin pointed. “There. If you look closely, you can see it.”

The two cramped up tightly, struggling with the hole pointed near the spot.

“No need to worry, it's not any cause for alarm, someone's cooking. A campfire.” I said something.

“Who cooks outside?”

“Apparently people who can't afford to cook inside.” Justin’s sarcasm was at its peak.

I feel a laugh brooding inside of me but I forced it back in.

“Justin, no need to get smart with Derek. He was just being curious.”

“Sorry Alpha.” Justin smirked at Derek. Derek rolled his eyes at my beta wolf.

  • The Alpha King Is My Second Chance Mate    Chapter 71

    Maya’s POVSleep had become a battlefield for me.As much as I tried to close my eyes, I couldn't.Especially when the Alpha was out of the pack, in meetings.Every night, when I tried, the shadows of my dreams twisted into my sister’s face. Sarah. Her eyes burning with hate, her voice hissing curses, her hands holding knives or fire or worse. One night she slit Alpha Williams’ throat in front of me. Another, she poisoned the food of the entire Silver Moon pack. Another still, she dragged me by the hair and whispered, "If I can’t rule, then no one will.”Each time, I woke up screaming.That morning, I sat on the edge of the bed, my chest heaving, sweat sticking to my nightdress. Alpha Williams stirred beside me.“You dreamed again?” he asked, his deep voice rough with sleep.I nodded, unable to meet his eyes. “She killed you again. I tried to stop her, but it’s like she’s… stronger than me in there.”He reached out and cupped my cheek. His touch alone slowed my trembling. “Dreams c

    Maya’s POV'She's gone.' Melissa whispered in my thoughts. “Sarah is finally gone.”The hall still trembled from the echoes of Sarah’s curses even minutes after she left.Her words, her scent and her voice still lingered long after the guards dragged her and Thomas away. My chest rose and fell as if I had just run a marathon.I had not expected what the Alpha himself did.No way.I hadn't expected to be woken from sleep to testify against my sister and Alpha Thomas.I remembered the terror in their eyes as they watched me confessing. They looked like they would murder me if they could— and they tried.Now, my heart wasn’t only racing from fear—it was torn, pulled in two directions.Even though she was a traitor, she was my sister. No matter what she had done, no matter the poison in her heart, she was still the girl who once braided my hair and whispered secrets to me, even if they were just pretense.I lowered my gaze to the marble floor. “What if I’d done more? What if I could have

    Alpha Williams’ POV“You're not going?!”“No.”“Why?”Pride was a funny thing—it strangled you when you wanted to reach out, held your hand when you wanted to let go. I wanted to go after her. Moon, I wanted to run after Maya, grab her, shake her, ask why she’d run from me.But I didn’t.Because I am Alpha Williams. And an Alpha never chases.“She didn’t reject you,” Balor murmured in my head, his voice low and steady.I clenched my jaw. “She ran from me. In front of my pack, Balor. That is worse than rejection.”“No,” my wolf rumbled, a growl deep in my chest. “Worse would’ve been her saying no. She didn’t. She panicked. There is hope still.”I exhaled sharply, leaning forward, elbows on my knees. Hope was dangerous. Hope got you killed.That night I slammed the door to my chambers, too furious to think, too bruised in pride to move. But by dawn, I forced myself calm. I had to. ---The knock on my door came mid-morning.“My lord,” a guard bowed, “Alpha Thomas and Lady Sarah have arr

  • The Alpha King Is My Second Chance Mate    Chapter 68

    Maya’s POVI sat on my bed, twisting the hem of my dress between my fingers. My mind had been circling the same thought over and over again—Sarah. Her voice from the woods still echoed in my head, I had memories of all the times we were children and how much she hated me.I thought of the way she acted even when we were teenagers.I tried to think back to the time when we lived together. How did I miss that she was a witch?It made my skin crawl.I should have felt relief that I finally had proof of her betrayal, but instead, fear gnawed at me. Sarah wasn’t just my step sister. Like it or not, she was still my blood. And exposing her felt like ripping my own heart out.The sudden knock on my door jolted me.“Maya,” a deep voice called.My heart skipped. Alpha Williams.I scrambled to my feet, smoothing my hair even though my palms were damp. “Yes, Alpha?” My voice was small, uncertain.“Come with me,” he said, his tone unreadable.I hesitated for a second before pushing the door op

    Alpha Williams’ POVThe maid Maya had whispered to me about—Sarah’s maid. She was smaller than I expected, wiry, her eyes darting like a cornered animal.I had the guards catch her when she was on her way out. She sneaked past the first gate but my men took her at the second.“She tried to slip through the eastern gate,” one of my men growled, shoving her forward. “Would’ve gotten away if not for the patrol.”I folded my arms, studying her. “You’ve been sneaking out at night often, haven’t you?”The maid tried to straighten, feigning calm. “I…I was only going to fetch herbs for Lady Sarah. She hasn’t been well.”I stepped closer, letting the full weight of my presence roll over her. “Lie to me again,” I said quietly, “and I’ll have your head on a spike before dawn.”Her throat bobbed. She tried to move, but the guards held her still. The scent of fear clung to her like sweat.“Take her to the red room,” I ordered. “I’ll deal with her myself.”---The room was dark save for the torchli

    Maya’s POVMy palms were damp. My throat felt like sandpaper, but I forced myself to look him in the eye.“Alpha,” I began softly, “I don’t think you were desperate for wanting to kiss me.”His brows lifted, confusion flashing in his dark eyes.“Excuse me?”“I know that's how you feel, but you don't need to worry about that. I'm not here for that reason—“Excuse me?!! What the–”He nearly erupted but I stopped him.I swallowed, steadying my voice. “Because I felt the same way. That’s why I acted so… weird. It wasn’t rejection. I just—” My cheeks burned. “I’ve never kissed anyone before. I’ve never even been with a man. I didn’t know how to handle it.”He stiffened slightly, as if I had dropped a secret too heavy for the air between us.“I’m a virgin,” I admitted, voice trembling but determined. “So when you leaned close, I panicked. But inside, I wanted it. I wanted you. I wanted your lips.” I forced a shaky smile. “So don’t ever think you were forcing something on me. If anything, I
