Marcus POV

I had outdone myself for Lila’s Luna succession after she told me the job had been carried out. Believing her every word, I didn’t even bother asking for proof that Ethan had been taken out of the picture. All I knew was that he had been stabbed by a trained assassin using a dagger coated in wolfsbane so he would not heal. There was no way he was supposed to survive an attack like that. Or so I thought.

Because the man I had hoped would be dead by now was sitting beside Damon, Alpha of the Pasquale pack.

I turned on my heel and headed straight for the Luna’s dressing room, where I knew Lila would be. Without knocking, I barged in, not caring if I walked in on something indecent.

“What the hell happened?” I barked.

The ladies in waiting jumped, startled by the hostility in my voice.

“Everyone out!”

They didn’t need to be told twice. Each of them bowed hurriedly and left the room. Lila, for some reason, still looked completely unbothered. She pressed her lips together with a

  • The Alpha’s Rejected Mate Reborn   Chapter 74

    Lila's POVTwo weeks.I had two weeks left before the suppression potion wore off.Two weeks before my witch form would be visible again. Before Violet's serum would work. Before everyone could see what I really was.I sat in my room. Alone. Staring at the calendar on my phone.Fourteen days. That was all I had.I should have left already. Should have disappeared the moment Thorne was arrested.But I couldn't. Not yet.Because if I ran now, Marcus would be alone. And a desperate Marcus was a dangerous Marcus. He might tell the Alliance everything just to save himself.No. I needed to stay. Needed to make sure he kept his mouth shut.And I needed to eliminate the real threat.Sophia.As long as she was alive, as long as she could testify at that Alliance meeting, neither Marcus nor I were safe.So Sophia had to die.Simple as that.I pulled out my phone. Opened the encrypted messaging app. Typed quickly."I need help. Urgent."The response came within seconds."We're listening."I smil

    Marcus's POVThe news hit me like a punch to the gut.Thorne had been arrested. For treason. For conspiracy. For trying to kill Sophia.I sat in my office. Staring at the official notice from the Pack Alliance.This couldn't be real. Couldn't be happening."Alpha." One of my pack members knocked. "The elders want to speak with you."I didn't answer. Just kept staring at the notice.Thorne. My ally. My partner in all of this.Arrested.Which meant they had evidence. Real evidence. Against him.And if they had evidence against Thorne, they might have evidence against me too."Shit," I muttered."Alpha?" The pack member knocked again."Go away!" I shouted.Silence. Then footsteps retreating.I stood up. Paced the room. My mind is racing.How much did they know? What had Thorne told them?Did they know I'd hired assassins to kill Ethan? Did they know about the plans to discredit Sophia?I grabbed my phone. Called Thorne's number.It went straight to voicemail.Of course it did. He was pro

    Sophia's POVThe morning after Thorne's arrest, I woke up exhausted.My throat still stung where his knife had cut me. The wound had healed, but the memory remained sharp.Ethan was already awake. Sitting at the desk in our room. Papers spread everywhere."How long have you been up?" I asked.He looked over. "A few hours. Couldn't sleep."I got out of bed and walked to him. Wrapped my arms around his shoulders from behind. "You should rest.""So should you," he said. He covered my hands with his. "But we both know that's not happening."He was right.I pulled up a chair beside him. I looked at the papers. Bank statements. Letters. Photographs. All the evidence we'd collected against Thorne."Is it enough?" I asked."More than enough," Ethan said. "Thorne's connections to the witch coven. The payments. The letter to Lila. It's all here."I picked up one of the bank statements. Traced the highlighted transactions. Thousands of gold pieces. Sent to offshore accounts."How did we miss thi

    Ethan's POVThe Pack Alliance emergency meeting was in three days.Three days to finalize everything. To make sure our evidence was airtight.I was in my office reviewing documents when Max rushed in."We have a problem," he said.I looked up. "What kind of problem?""Thorne knows," Max said. "He knows we're investigating him."My blood ran cold. "How?""One of his contacts tipped him off," Max said. "Someone saw us digging into his records. Word got back to him.""Damn it," I muttered. "Where is he now?""He's at the Ironclad Pack," Max said. "With Sophia's father."My heart stopped. "Sophia."I grabbed my phone. Called her immediately.It rang. And rang. And rang.No answer."Where is she?" I demanded."She left for Ironclad Pack an hour ago," Max said. "Said she wanted to talk to her father before the Alliance meeting."Fear gripped me. "She's walking into a trap.""We need to go," Max said. "Now."We didn't waste time. Grabbed our weapons. Gathered guards. And drove toward Ironcla

    Sophia's POVI called my father first thing in the morning."Sophia," he answered. His voice was stronger now. Healthier. The poison had finally cleared his system. "Is everything alright?""I need to ask you something," I said. "About Thorne."Silence."What about Thorne?" My father's tone shifted. Cautious."How long has he been your Beta?" I asked."Over twenty years," my father said. "Why?""And in all that time, has he ever given you reason to doubt his loyalty?"Another pause. Longer this time."No," my father said slowly. "Thorne has been nothing but loyal. Why are you asking this?"I took a breath. "I think he might be involved in something. Something bad.""That's a serious accusation, Sophia.""I know," I said. "But I have evidence. Not concrete yet. But enough to investigate.""What kind of evidence?" my father demanded.I told him about the letter. About the initial T. About how Thorne had access to him when he was poisoned.My father was quiet for a long time."I need you

    Sophia's POVViolet arrived early the next morning.She looked exhausted. Dark circles under her eyes. Her blue hair messier than usual."Did you sleep at all?" I asked as I let her into the study."No," Violet said. She dropped into a chair. "Too much on my mind."Ethan and Max were already there. Waiting."Alright," I said, closing the door. "Let's figure this out. Violet, show them what Celeste gave you."Violet pulled out the small bottle of silver powder. "Detection powder. It reveals magical residue. If Lila used magic recently, this will prove it.""How do we use it?" Ethan asked."We need access to her things," Violet said. "Her home. Her belongings. Anything she's touched in the past week.""That's not going to be easy," Max pointed out. "Marcus isn't going to let us waltz into Nightfall Pack and search Lila's room.""Then we don't ask permission," I said.Everyone looked at me."You want to break into Nightfall Pack?" Ethan asked. "Sophia, that's—""Necessary," I interrupted
