Milton's P.O.V

“Alpha Derek,” I called Lyra's father, seated in my office with a frown on his face. “The wedding is off,” I said for the umpteenth time.

He wasn't satisfied with the reasons I'd already given him. But it was a decision Lyra and I had already made. We weren't getting married.

“Milton -”

I raised a brow at him and he corrected himself. If I gave him the respect of being an Alpha in my home, the least he could do was the same.

“Alpha Milton,” he tried again. “This marriage was long

  • The Alpha's Daughter   Chapter 52 - Half of Her

    Daciana’s P.O.V I stood there, staring at Historia.She had my mother's face. Every line of it. The shape of her nose, the sharpness of her jaw, and the way her eyes held steady even when they were soft.Her words were still ringing in my ears, but only one question made it to the tip of my tongue.“How?”She smiled. “Same parents.”“I know how siblings work.” I crossed my arms. “I mean, how is it even possible? Her parents died in the war, yet you're standing here, the same age as me.”Disappointment moved across her face. It was brief and quiet. But I saw it. “I see she never told you,” she said.“Told me what?”“Your mother's people,” she held my gaze. “They're alive, Daciana.”I looked at her for a long moment. Then I laughed. It came out wrong, too sharp and too hollow, but I couldn't stop it.I shook my head. “I don't know where you've been, but the Frost demons are long gone.”She frowned. “We're not demons. And neither are you.”“You know nothing about me.” I turned for the

  • The Alpha's Daughter   Chapter 51 - The Shadow in the Woods

    Daciana’s P.O.V The second howl shattered whatever hope I had left. I heard it from Milton's office. That long agonizing howl of mourning. The room suddenly felt too small, too quiet, and too difficult to breathe in. My hands trembled as I walked back and forth the room's length. Amelia. The image of her frosting covered face flashed through my face. Her smile while we celebrated her birthday not so long ago. A sob climbed up my throat. But I crushed it before it could escape. Amelia isn't dead. She couldn't be. I was still lost in my thoughts when the office door opened and Milton walked in with Adam and Davies by his side. I rushed up to him and threw my arms around his neck in an embrace. He was warm, but the rapid beat of his heart worried me. I pulled away, barely locking eyes with Adam before turning back to Milton. “I heard the howl,” I said softly. “Is she…” “No.” His voice was firm. “It wasn't Amelia.” The breath left my lungs so quickly my knees nearly gave

  • The Alpha's Daughter   Chapter 50 - The Second Howl

    Milton’s P.O.VFor a second, I couldn't breathe. Adam’s words echoed in my head in the room's silence.“We couldn’t find her.”That sentence made no sense. I didn’t ask him to find her. Amelia was waiting for him in my office. She wasn’t the kind of child reckless enough to wander into trouble. Especially when advised against it.I turned to Daciana. She looked calm, but I could feel the chaos in her heart. My wolf growled deep inside me, unsettled by her stillness.“What do you mean, you can't find my sister?” Daciana finally spoke.Adam glanced between the both of us before responding to her. “Milton asked me to meet her in his office. She was waiting for me there.”“And?” She stepped forward.“His office was empty. I've searched the entire floor, but there's no sign of her.”I moved toward the door, thinking of a solution to a matter this delicate. Daciana followed closely behind me, but I stopped her.“I can't have you disappearing too,” I said. She frowned and moved past me.“My

  • The Alpha's Daughter   Chapter 49 - Amelia's Missing

    Milton's P.O.VAbout an hour after Daciana left the office, Adam knocked on the door and walked in before I could say a word.He wore a deep frown on his face. The kind a father gives his son after making a terrible decision.“What were you thinking?” he asked, planting both palms on the desk. “You're letting her go back to her pack?”I leaned back in my chair. “Would you have me stop her?”“Yes!” The word came out harsher than he intended.I raised a brow.Adam exhaled slowly, forcing himself to calm down before taking the seat across from me.“She can't go back there.”“Yes, she can,” I replied evenly. “They're her people and they need her.”Adam gave a bitter laugh. “Her people are dead.” A short silence followed, then he continued. “You're so focused on getting in between her pants that you can't even tell her the truth.”I shot to my feet and slammed both hands on the desk. “Not another word,” I growled. “I could have your throat ripped out for that attitude.”Adam stood as well

  • The Alpha's Daughter   Chapter 48 - Fractured

    Daciana’s P.O.VI didn’t know much about my mother's pendant. To me, it had always been nothing more than an accessory. A part of her I could hold on to when everything else fell apart.Now, I wasn’t sure what it was anymore.Adam didn’t say a single word. The silence between us was louder than the empty hallway we stood in.I pressed forward, hoping to catch a hint of anything in his eyes, but there was nothing. His expression was unreadable, a wall I couldn’t see through, and impossible to tell what he was thinking.Finally, he laughed. That deep, shallow laugh I loved about him. Only this time, it sounded like it was dragged out of him.“Daciana,” he murmured as he leaned into me..I took a step back before I could think and watched as he took control of the situation.“What are you talking about?” He asked. He had this edge to his voice that sent a chill down my nerves.My breath hitched, and then came fear, clawing its way up my throat. I breathed and forced my voice to be steady

  • The Alpha's Daughter   Chapter 47 - Who Are You?

    Daciana's P.O.VMilton had a little party organised to celebrate Amelia’s birthday. It turned out she'd been pestering him about since we returned from the fight.“You didn't have to,” I said, but he scoffed.“Are we going to let our problems come in the way of her happiness?” He asked, watching her giggle and run circles around Cersei.I sighed. “You're right. Today is about her. Not me, not you. Just her.”I walked up to her and joined in Cersei's pursuit to give her a bath.She saw the opening, and scrambled to Milton, hiding behind him.“You're not going to catch me,” she giggled heartily.To her surprise, Milton swooped her off her feet and handed her over to me.“That's cheating,” she bickered, feeling betrayed by the man she'd grown so awfully close to.“I beg to differ,” I smiled as I took off her clothes and carried her to the shower.She insisted she'd shower on her own, and asked that Cersei and I gave her privacy. I smiled at her request, and obliged.Milton wasn't in the

    Milton's P.O.V Ideally, Lyra and I should have been out in the village, celebrating with the people as they prepared for the moon festival, but everyone one of us knew it was a bad idea. I still wasn't comfortable with the idea of getting married to her a few days from now, and all my efforts to c

There was a huge bonfire at the center of the village, and a crowd gathered round the fire, telling stories and chatting with one another. “We do that every year before the Full Moon Festival,” Adam whispered as I watche

    Daciana’s P.O.VAdam sat with me at the edge of the pool, our feet gently kicking against the rippling surface of the waters as we stared into the horizon. The sun was well above us now, and the birds which I had scared off when I screamed had slowly begun to return to their nests up in the trees.
