Kol

It should’ve been an easy choice to send someone else. Agatha was finally being discharged from the hospital after weeks of recovery, and protocol said the Alpha delegated those errands to his most trusted soldier. But protocol didn’t understand what loyalty looked like, what it felt like to almost lose one of the only people in your life who’d never questioned your place at the top.

So I ignored protocol and went myself.

The drive was quiet for a while. Agatha sat beside me, still a little weak, but her eyes, those eyes were the same: sharp and observant.

“You drive like a man with too much on his mind,” she murmured.

I sighed. “You have no idea.”

“I intend to.” She turned to face me fully. “Start talking.”

So I did.

I told her everything. From the second we found Jeremy’s head to the lies Lira had spun, the Elders heads she’d claimed in vengeance, the war she had incited. Agatha listened without interrupting. Not once.

When I mentioned Elder Sorah calling for a vote, an open vot

  • The Alpha’s Pretty Mistake   Stripped of Power

    AriaI watched Kol’s face the moment Liam announced the results. There were no changes. No shift. Not even a blink.But I felt it, something inside him definitely twisted. Not physically, not for the world to see. But just enough for me to feel it in my chest. My heart stuttered with his silence.Elder Sorah smiled. I bet she was satisfied. She turned to the room, letting the silence stretch long enough before finally beginning her speech.“Today, we choose wisdom over recklessness. Structure over sentiment. We usher in a new era, a new order, one that will no longer be ruled by instinct and vengeance, but by logic and order. You have my word, as your new Alpha, that I will rebuild the integrity of this pack. I will make our past elders, Malkir, Helena and Tomas, proud.”Some people clapped. Not many. But enough to sting. Others just stared. Silently and uncertainly. And still, Kol didn’t flinch.He just turned and left the hall with shoulders straight and an even pace. I quickly foll

  • The Alpha’s Pretty Mistake   The Fool’s Silence

    AriaWe had been there for hours. The location Lira had given us.Kol’s jaw was locked tight. I noticed his fingers twitching near the strap of his gun. Liam leaned against one of the jeeps, crossing his arms. His patience was clearly thinning."Are we sure this is it?" Liam asked finally with his voice edged with frustration. "This is the location she gave?"Kol didn’t turn to look at him. His eyes stayed fixed forward. "She was confident. Gave exact coordinates. Said this was their staging point.""Yeah?" Liam muttered. "Well, unless the New Moon Pack learned how to go invisible, I’d say we’ve been sitting ducks in an open field for nothing."I glanced between them. I wanted to believe Lira. Even after everything, I’d held on to some thread of hope that she’d done the right thing, for once.But now…“I don’t like this,” I whispered. “Something feels off.”Kol’s fingers finally moved. He reached for his gun, cocked it, and scanned the trees ahead. A ruffle in the brush made everyone

  • The Alpha’s Pretty Mistake   Clean Slates and Dirty Hands

    LiraI sat in silence, in my cell. I talked to myself most times, but I had a mission to complete. I wasn’t going to let myself become crazy while being locked up in there. So I always kept myself busy. I’d memorised every crack in the stone walls and every dip in the ceiling. Still, I waited, patient as the devil. That’s what they never understood, I didn’t need time. I needed opportunity. And this time, I had both. Because I knew that any moment from now, Aria would come walking in with Kol, believing the lies I had spewed.And just like that, my cell door opened.I didn’t look up immediately, because I already knew who it was. Kol and my dear sister, Aria. I could hear the tension between them. Whatever discussion had led them here, it definitely hadn’t been an easy one.“You said you had something for us,” Kol said sternly.I looked up slowly. “You mean besides trauma and a pretty smile?”His jaw flexed. He never had much of a sense of humour. Or maybe we were both in a bad place

  • The Alpha’s Pretty Mistake   The Line Between Us

    AriaSince war had been the topic for some days now, the used the scent of moonflowers to calm me.Now, not even a bouquet of moonflowers could calm the millions of uneasy nerves in my body. I sat on the stone bench in the heart of the garden, wrapping my arms around myself as my eyes watched a lizard mating with another on the wall. Everything felt like it was crumbling, walls, alliances, even the people I loved.“Aria.”I turned to see Liam standing a few feet away. His expression was softer than it used to be. He looked better than he did days ago, cleaner, cheerful, but there was still worry behind his eyes that I just couldn’t miss.“Kol let you out of your cave?” I asked, trying for levity, but my voice cracked.He smiled faintly. “He let me speak to her.”“She’s alive,” he added. “Battered, but breathing.”I swallowed. “And still holding on to her truth, I assume.”“She asked for you,” he said. “Specifically. Said she wanted to see you one last time.”I looked away.“I don’t k

  • The Alpha’s Pretty Mistake   A Ticking Bomb

    KolWe were back in the cell. It was quite chilly with only a flickering bulb serving as the only source of light. Lira was on the floor with her back against the wall and her hands tightly bound in silver cuffs. As I paced in front of her, her eyes followed me, wondering when I was going to finally end her.In that moment, under the dim light and in the quietness of the cell, she didn’t look like a monster. She looked like a tired, bruised woman. But I knew better.“You really expect me to believe this?” I said, breaking the silence. “That you came back for what… redemption?”She pouted. “Believe whatever you want, Kol. I’m here. That should count for something.”“You have more blood on your hands than anyone I’ve ever known.”“And yet here I am,” she shrugged, “unarmed, unguarded, walking straight into your jaws.”“No,” I corrected her, stepping closer. “You walked into her heart. You used Aria, your own sister, to get close to me again. And when that wasn’t enough, you sent pieces
