The Alpha's Secret Heir 139. A Shattered Ego
Suddenly, the office door was violently flung open without a formal knock.Crash!Adrian stepped inside again, breathing heavily. His personal assistant’s expression was no longer filled with exhaustion, but with extreme tension. In both hands, Adrian carried an ancient, intricately carved black wooden box that looked strikingly out of place amid the modern luxury of the office."Sir," Adrian called, his voice trembling faintly. "Two minutes ago, an unidentified courier broke through the security line at the lower lobby. They placed this box on the reception desk and then disappeared without leaving any identity or surveillance camera footage. All tracking systems failed to identify the sender."Aaron’s golden eyes instantly narrowed sharply. His murderous aura suddenly radiated once more, causing the room’s temperature to drop drastically. He stepped toward the desk, staring at the black wooden box with a vigilant predator’s instinct."Open it," Aaron ordered coldly.With trembling f
The Alpha's Secret Heir 138. The Contract That Opens the War
The morning sun had risen high over the city, yet the main office on the executive floor of Aaron’s skyscraper still felt as oppressive as the cage of a wounded lion.Aaron stood silently facing the large glass window that displayed the cityscape below. His neat black suit could not conceal the extraordinary tension in his body. His jaw was rigid, and his golden eyes had dimmed into a gloomy darkness, as deep as a starless night.He had not slept all night.In his mind, the roar of desperation from the previous night still echoed. The bloodstained empty chair, Lucas’s corpse, and Fay’s fading scent in the air continued to torment his wolf instinct. His soul was torn apart. Two mysterious Alphas had taken his mate away, and he had absolutely no idea where the woman was now.Knock, knock!A knock on the door broke the oppressive silence. The door slowly opened, and Adrian, his personal assistant, stepped inside with his head slightly lowered, a natural reflex caused by Aaron’s intimidat
The Alpha's Secret Heir 137. The Alibi That Must Be Perfect
That morning passed as usual on the surface, but not for Hendra. Behind his calm expression, his thoughts had already begun moving faster than time itself.A short while ago, Hendra had already risen from his chair and slowly walked toward his private study.Not long afterward, he approached the window. From inside, his eyes swept across the area outside the house. There was nothing immediately suspicious. But his instincts told him otherwise.Something had changed. As though the world were watching him more closely than before.He shifted his gaze. He could not let himself be provoked. Not now.Bzztt.His phone vibrated again.Not from the "Man in the Black Cloak."Another message.From a different network. A contact he had been using to conceal his movements.Hendra opened the message.'Security movements in each of their territories have increased. Lucien and Aldrick are conducting surprise inspections.'Hendra’s gaze darkened slightly.Lucien, that Gamma. And Aldrick, the Beta.Th
The Alpha's Secret Heir 136. A New Order Arrives
That morning, after all the warmth that had briefly subsided between them, the atmosphere in the house slowly returned to normal.Elena was now in the kitchen. The soft clinking of utensils could be heard from there, followed by the aroma of a simple meal that was beginning to fill the house.She seemed more stable. Lighter. As though the burden of fear that had struck her the previous night was slowly being swept away by Hendra’s presence beside her.Meanwhile, Hendra sat on the sofa in the living room. His phone was in his hand. The screen was still dark, but his mind was never truly at ease.His eyes stared blankly toward the window, but his thoughts ran far deeper than the peaceful morning visible outside.About Fay.About Lucas.About everything Elena must never know.And, of course, about the man in the black cloak. The shadowy figure whose presence always felt like a blade pressed against his throat.The silence broke when the phone in his hand vibrated.Hendra instinctively lo
The Alpha's Secret Heir 135. Diverting the Morning Passion
Elena was still resting in his arms when the conversation began to flow slowly.The sounds of the neighbors in the morning could be heard faintly outside the house, mingling with the silence that still surrounded the two of them.Elena looked at Hendra's face for a moment, then slightly furrowed her brow."Darling…," she called softly."Yes?""Fay … is it really okay for us to leave her there alone?"Once again, her thoughts were still focused on her daughter, who was far away at her mother's place.Hendra lowered his head, his eyebrows lifting slightly. "What do you mean?"Elena hesitantly bit her lower lip. "You said you wanted to bring Fay home, but you came straight back for me instead. Now I can't stop thinking about her being there alone."Hendra was silent for a moment. But then, the corner of his lips lifted."It seems Fay prefers staying there to spending time with us," he said, as if joking.When Elena did not react, Hendra let out a soft sigh, then continued in a slightly g
The Alpha's Secret Heir 134. False Calm
Morning light slowly slipped through the gap in the window curtains, falling softly into the room that was still shrouded in silence.The air inside the room felt warm, a stark contrast to the coldness of the night that had just passed.Elena was still asleep in his arms.Her breathing was slow, steady, and calm. Her face looked much more peaceful than the previous night, as if all the fears that had crept into her had slowly disappeared the moment Hendra returned to her side.As if his presence alone was enough to make Elena's world feel safe again.Hendra looked at the woman in silence.His arms were still wrapped around Elena's body, maintaining that position without truly daring to move much. Not because he was afraid of waking her, but because for a moment … he did not want to let her go.Last night, Elena had not let him leave. Even after Hendra returned home, the woman had asked him to stay here.She did not ask many questions. She did not complain. She simply held his hand as
