Killian's POV

The beeping hadn’t stopped ringing in my head, even after the guard’s scanner went still in front of Liam and the girl.

At first, I thought it was another trick, another mistake. But when the guard demanded the mage, when the crowd leaned in like wolves scenting blood, I felt something twist hard in my chest.

I watched her. Isla. The way her lips curved into that small smile, claiming innocence. And then the guard called for a volunteer.

I should have stepped in. I should have ended it there. But before I could, Tasha slid forward, like she’d been waiting her whole life for this moment.

Her voice, her arrogance, it irritated me. And when her hands came out holding those two golden mages, one in each palm, the hall detonated with whispers.

My body went still.

Two. Not one. Two.

It was as if my spirit elevated from my body, voices clawing at my ears.

“She’s the one!”

    Liam's POV I leaned against the bar, nursing a glass I hadn’t touched. My eyes never drifted far from Killian. He had Daphne pinned down with that stare of his, making sure she's not leaving her sight. But it wasn’t Daphne that worried me, it was Isla. Alpha Killian has instructed me to keep my eyes on Arielle while he would keep Daphne entertained in case any of them was planning anything against Isla. She had excused herself, whispered something into Killian’s ear, then disappeared into the corridor. I didn’t like her leaving out of sight. I tried to keep calm, but my gut wouldn’t let me. Most of the people here would surely stand against Isla once they know who she is. And if she so much as stumbled into their trap, they’d eat her alive. My phone buzzed with some irrelevant message, but I ignored it. My eyes flicked toward the far end of the hall, to where she’d gone. A shadow moved there a moment la

    Isla's POV I tried to keep myself from getting exploded by excitement, as we were about to step in, Killian locked his arms with mine and we entered. Stares, almost every influential person's eyes were on us. I stretched my ear trying to hear what they were saying. "Wow, is that Alpha Killian's lover? So beautiful!" I heard one of them say, probably an outsider. "And here comes the luckiest girl in the world." Another said. My ears blocked without my permission when I heard Arielle's voice, "This girl must have quite a charm to steal Alpha Killian's heart." I couldn't have misheard it, that was her voice. My eyes went red immediately, though I forced a smile to stay. Killian’s grip on my arm tightened, almost as if he sensed the shift in my chest. I dared not look in Arielle’s direction, though every nerve in my body screamed for me to. If I met her eyes now

    Killian's POV I lost count of the number of times Isla had laughed here, the sound spilling out as though she wanted the whole room to notice her presence. I blinked once, steadying myself, my gaze shifting toward Liam before landing back on her.“If I am a good listener,” she began, tilting her head slightly, “and if I understand things well, I think you used to mention something related to having hatred for Daphne?” Her tone was wrapped in mock curiosity, but the sharpness underneath was obvious. “With all might, Isla,” I answered, my voice flat, leaving no space for her to twist.Her lips parted as though she had caught me in some grand contradiction. “And now you want to go to a party hand in hand with her?” The words trembled just slightly.I could sense the jealousy lacing through that timid voice of hers, a quiet storm she tried to mask.“Calista would be around with her husband, that Lycan king,” I said, my jaw tightening as I leaned back. “I should satisfy her with this be

    Killian's POV By the time I stepped into the hotel lounge with Liam at my side, she was already there, a glass of wine in front of her like it had been poured hours ago and she’d been waiting just to make a point. Her back was straight, eyes fixed on the glass until she heard my steps. Then she looked up, lips curling the way they always did when she wanted to remind me she knew more than she should.I checked my watch. Just a few seconds left before nine. Without breaking her stare, I moved closer and slid into the chair opposite her. Liam followed, taking the seat beside me like he belonged there.Her smile faltered for half a breath before she spoke. “I thought you said you wanted privacy, Killian. Why is Liam here?” Her voice was sweet on the surface, but the edge underneath was sharper than broken glass.I leaned forward, folding my hands on the table. “That’s my brother.”She gave a low laugh, the kind that carried disbelief. “Brother?” She tilted her head, eyes flicking towa
