EMILY

Alessandro stood on the outside platform between two guards as they slowly started approaching the mansion. This was the first time I'd seen him after coming back from the hospital.

He was arriving as scheduled one week before his birthday party and also his coronation into the high council.

Alessandro was smiling and I found that weird. He was tall and lean, with broad shoulders, and he cut a dashing figure in his dark, expensive suit. He was blond and blue-eyed, and most women found h

  • The Alpha’s Dead Luna   Chapter 160

    Emily's POVThe first thing I became aware of was the sound.A steady beeping.It cut through the darkness long before I could feel my own body.For a while, I simply floated there, trapped somewhere between consciousness and sleep. I couldn't tell how much time had passed. Minutes. Hours. Days. Everything felt distant, like I was underwater and the world existed somewhere far above me.Then the pain arrived.Just a dull crushing ache spreading through every part of me.Even breathing felt like work.I frowned and tried to move my fingers. The effort alone exhausted me.A soft groan escaped my throat. The sound startled me, it sounded weak.Slowly, painfully, I forced my eyes open.For several seconds everything remained blurry.My vision swam before finally beginning to focus and I could clearly see that I was in a hospital room. The realization hit me slowly as my heart skipped.I immediately tried sitting up and instantly pain exploded through my abdomen.A cry escaped my lips as

  • The Alpha’s Dead Luna   Chapter 159

    ALESSANDRO I had known Santos for years.Long enough to know that the man standing in front of me wasn't normal and long enough to know that whatever was wrong with Joselyn had not started with her.It started with him.The madness ran through their bloodline like a disease.The same cold smiles.The same lack of empathy.The same terrifying ability to discuss death over dinner as though they were talking about the weather.Rain continued pouring outside the safe house while Santos stood across from me, looking entirely too relaxed for a man who had just threatened me.The dead woman still sat in the courtyard behind us.A bullet hole between her eyes, blood slowly mixing with rainwater.Santos didn't even spare her another glance.I folded my arms tightly."What exactly do you want?"Santos smiled."I came to see my son-in-law."I nearly laughed."Cut the bullshit."His smile disappeared. For a moment neither of us spoke, then he stepped closer."I heard you've been mistreating my d

    ALESSANDRO I still could not believe Joselyn had walked into my house like she had done.And started ordering my men around as though my authority meant nothing anymore.And the worst part?They listened to her.That alone told me everything I needed to know.Power was shifting.I barely slept that night. Every sound inside the safe house kept my wolf alert. Every creak of the floorboards made my hand drift toward the gun beneath my pillow.The council had frozen my accounts.Half my men had stopped answering my calls.The others suddenly needed “permission” before moving weapons or vehicles.Permission.For years nobody questioned my orders.Now even my own territory felt unfamiliar.I woke slowly the next morning, my head pounding from exhaustion. For a few seconds I forgot where I was. The room was dark except for the pale light slipping through the curtains.Then I felt someone watching me.My eyes snapped open instantly.Joselyn sat in the chair across the room with one leg cros

    EMILY The moment I stepped into my studio, I quickly observed that something was off. I froze by the door, my fingers still wrapped around the strap of my bag while my eyes slowly swept across the room. The curtains were exactly where I left them. The lights were off. My design boards still leaned against the far wall beside the mannequin stand.But the air felt disturbed.Like someone had breathed inside my space while I was away.My chest tightened instantly.I shut the door slowly behind me and took another step forward, my heels clicking softly against the wooden floor. The silence inside the studio made my skin crawl.Then I noticed one of my drawers was slightly open.My heartbeat skipped.I knew I had closed it before leaving yesterday.I moved closer carefully, my eyes scanning everything around me. Nothing looked stolen. My expensive camera was still sitting on the shelf beside the mood boards. The framed sketches near the wall were untouched.But little things were differe

    ALESSANDRO The meeting hall smelled like cigar smoke, old leather, and blood hidden beneath expensive perfume.I sat at the end of the long black table with Liam asleep in my arms earlier still haunting my thoughts, his tiny fingers wrapped around mine before I handed him to one of the women assigned to watch him downstairs. Even now, sitting among wolves dressed in suits worth more than most people’s houses, I could still feel the warmth of him lingering against my chest.And maybe that was the problem.Because the moment a man had something to lose, the world immediately sharpened its knives.The high council chamber was quiet except for the ticking of the antique clock mounted against the stone wall. Twelve men sat around the table. Mafia lords.Clan elders.Men whose hands had buried generations.I leaned back slightly in my chair, my expression unreadable even though I already knew where this conversation was going.Elder Romano folded his wrinkled hands on the table.“The issu

    EMILYI could still hear the fire long after I stopped running.It stayed in my ears like a living thing, crackling wood, collapsing walls, the sharp chaos of people shouting over sirens. My knees hit the ground the moment I saw Ella, and for a few seconds I couldn’t even form words.“Miriam,” I gasped again, shaking her shoulders harder than I meant to. “Ella, where is she? Tell me she’s—”Ella’s lips trembled. Her face was ash-streaked, her lashes wet, but no sound came out. Only broken breaths. Like her voice had been taken from her.“No… no, don’t do this,” I whispered, my grip tightening. “Ella, please—”Then I saw movement behind her.Firefighters.Two of them emerging from the smoke-filled entrance carrying something between them.A body.My heart stopped so violently I thought I might collapse.“No,” I said instantly, stepping forward before anyone could stop me. “No, no, no—”But then the face turned slightly under the soot and blanket.Miriam.Her eyes were closed, her face

    EMILY"What do you mean by that?" I stuttered, completely confused as to what he meant by he owns me.But instead of answering, Alessandro turned and started walking towards his car. He didn't stop, or even slow down. He just kept walking away as if he hadn't even heard me.I was shocked to my bone

    EMILYDinner that evening was painfully awkward.Gabby sat between Julian and me, happily chattering and unaware of the tension thickening the air around him, but I could feel it with every breath I took. A current of awareness pulsed between Julian and me, sharp and undeniable, making even the sma

    EMILY South Valley.The name alone had sounded ominous when Julian first spoke it. Now that we were here, I understood why.It was dry and suffocatingly hot deep in the bowels of the constricted valley. For two relentless days we had crossed an arid desert mountain range, following narrow, treache

    EMILY I covered my mouth with both hands the moment the bathroom door flew open.The scream that tore out of my chest died halfway, choking itself back into my throat as horror froze me in place.The man was in the bathtub. Shaking.His body was curled awkwardly against the porcelain, his wrists t
