DARIUS

Last night was terrible especially after the way Draven stormed out eager to rescue Aurora. I knew he wouldn’t be able to succeed, Malrik was anything but dumb.

He was always one step ahead that son of a bitch! I downed another bottle of scotch hoping the hot burn would quench the anger rising in my chest but it was futile.

My wolf was restless and it made no sense. How had this slave girl managed to get her claws into me and make my life a living hell?

A few weeks ago I didn't give a

  • The Alpha Twins Plaything   Chapter 184 — Two Halves Of One Power

    AURORAFor the first time since this conversation began, Lucien looked genuinely caught off guard.The reaction lasted less than a second.Most people probably wouldn’t have noticed it.I did.Because until now, Lucien had seemed like the only person standing in this clearing who wasn’t surprised by anything. Every accusation, every revelation, every painful memory had rolled off him without changing his expression.This was different.The moment my mother said the Bloodline had split, something flickered across his face before he buried it again.And that terrified me more than all the stories about armies and prophecies.Because if Lucien didn’t know this then whatever came next was important.My mother noticed it too.I saw her watching him carefully before turning back toward me.“The council believed the Bloodline existed inside one heir. That was the foundation of everything they knew about the prophecy. Every record, every prediction, every ritual was built around that assumpti

  • The Alpha Twins Plaything   Chapter 183 — The Night Everything Changed

    AURORANobody interrupted after Lucien’s last words, and honestly, nobody could.The image he had painted was already sitting heavily in everyone’s mind.A frightened six-year-old boy was losing control of a power he didn’t understand, while the adults around him responded with fear instead of compassion.I could see it now—the council chambers, the panic, and the whispers.The moment people stopped seeing a child and started seeing a threat.Maybe that was what disturbed me the most. Not because it was difficult to imagine, but because it wasn’t. I had lived through something similar.The moment my powers surfaced, everyone had looked at me differently, too. The elders had talked about protection while preparing cages. They had spoken about safety while fitting collars around people’s necks.Fear always found a way to disguise itself as concern, and fear was usually where cruelty began.My mother lowered herself onto a fallen tree near the edge of the clearing. For the first time sin

  • The Alpha Twins Plaything   Chapter 182 — What Really Happened

    AURORAFor several long seconds after Lucien spoke, nobody said a word.The clearing had become so quiet that I could hear the wind moving through the dead trees beyond the border. The army remained motionless behind him, stretching endlessly into the mist, but somehow they felt less important than the conversation unfolding in front of us.I couldn't stop looking at my mother.When I first saw her standing beyond the border, I imagined a hundred different explanations for why she disappeared. Maybe she had been trapped. Maybe she had been running. Maybe she had sacrificed everything to keep me safe.Now I wasn't sure what to believe because every answer seemed to come wrapped in another secret.Lucien watched her with an expression that made my chest ache. There was no love left in his eyes. No hope. Whatever relationship had existed between them had been worn away over the years until only resentment remained."You still haven't told her the truth."His voice was calm, but it carrie

  • The Alpha Twins Plaything   Chapter 181 — The Truth She Buried

    AURORANobody spoke after Lucien's accusation.The clearing had gone unnaturally quiet, as though even the Hollow Lands were listening.My mother's face was pale, her eyes shining with tears she refused to let fall. Across from her, Lucien stood with his hands folded behind his back, his expression unreadable again, but the damage had already been done. The anger I'd seen moments ago was gone, replaced by something colder. Something far more dangerous.Resentment.Not the kind that exploded and disappeared.The kind that sat inside a person for years until it became part of who they were.I couldn't stop staring at him.Everything about him felt wrong and familiar at the same time.The shape of his face.The dark hair.The eyes.Moon Goddess, the eyes.Every time I looked at him, it felt like I was staring at a distorted version of myself.Not because we looked identical.Because there was something recognizable beneath the surface.Something that shouldn't have been there.Something

  • The Alpha Twins Plaything   Chapter 180 — The Monster They Created

    AURORANobody spoke.Not because there was nothing to say.Because nobody knew what to say after that.Every time he lost control, people died.The words settled over the clearing like a curse.I looked at Lucien.Really looked at him.Not the army behind him.Not the resemblance we shared.Not the strange connection twisting inside my chest every time I looked at him.Just him.He stood motionless beyond the border, his expression unreadable.No guilt.No anger.No shame.Nothing.That bothered me more than if he had laughed.Because if someone accused me of killing innocent people, I would react.I would deny it.Defend myself.Feel something.Lucien just stood there.Like he'd heard the story so many times it no longer meant anything.The realization made my stomach turn.My mother was staring at him too.Not with hatred.That would've been easier to understand.What I saw in her eyes was heartbreak.The kind that never really heals.The kind people carry for decades."You promised

  • The Alpha Twins Plaything   Chapter 179 — The Child She Chose

    AURORAThe silence that followed felt suffocating.You wanted me.The words hung in the air between them, sharp enough to cut.I looked at the woman standing in front of me.My mother.Or at least the woman claiming to be my mother.She hadn't moved.She hadn't denied it.She hadn't immediately shouted that he was lying.And somehow that hurt more than if she had.The man saw it too.I watched satisfaction flicker across his face.Not because he'd hurt me.Because he'd hurt her.The realization unsettled me.This wasn't about me.Not really.At least not entirely.This wound existed long before I was born.Long before wolves.Long before the Hollow Lands.Long before any of this.The man folded his arms across his chest.For the first time since arriving, he seemed completely relaxed.Like he'd stepped onto familiar ground.Like he'd finally reached a conversation he'd been waiting years to have."Tell her."His voice wasn't loud.It didn't need to be.The woman flinched.Only slightl

    ELIJAHThe house smelled of herbs. It clung to the walls, seeping into the cracks of the floorboard and settling into the fabric of the curtains that hadn't been replaced since the invasion. I gagged at the horrible smell of the herbs I had prepared, grateful I didn't need it. Since I couldn't aff

    AURORAThe twig snapped again. It wasn't loud but it might as well have exploded inside my skull. Ever since I woke up I've been hearing everything a little too loud. I could even hear the wind threading through the trees, the faint rustle of leaves under distant feet, the scrape of leather agains

    LUNA“Not like that.”The maid froze, fingers tightening around the silver clasp at my throat.“I said tighten it,” I repeated, slow and cold. “Do you think I enjoy things hanging crooked around my neck?”“I… I’m sorry, Luna,” she stammered, hands shaking as she tried again but the clasp pinched my
