Bliss

I heard about the challenge from Aria, who heard it from one of the healers, who heard it from a warrior who'd been standing outside the council chamber.

By noon, the entire compound knew.

Kharo was being challenged. Formally. Publicly. And he had three days to either win the vote or lose everything.

I found him in his private quarters, standing at the window overlooking the pack grounds. He didn't turn when I entered.

"You heard," he said.

"Everyone's heard. The whole compound is talking about it."

"I'm sure they are." His voice was flat, emotionless. The voice he used when he was barely holding it together.

I moved to stand beside him, following his gaze. Below, wolves moved about their daily routines, but there was a tension in their movements. Uncertainty. Fear.

The pack was fracturing, and everyone could feel it.

"Three days," I said quietly.

"Three days."

"What happens if you lose?"

"I'm removed as Alpha. Solas and his coalition select a replacement. And I'm either exiled

  • The Alpha’s Unforgiven Mate   Chapter 70. I Don’t Care If It’s True

    Bliss"I think my father made a deal he didn't fully understand. And now we're all paying the price." Kharo's hand clenched into a fist. "If the pact brought you here, if it created our bond as part of Lycaon's plan, then everything we've felt, everything between us…""Don't," I said sharply. "Don't finish that sentence.""Why not? If it's true…""I don't care if it's true." I grabbed his arm, forcing him to look at me. "I don't care if some ancient pact arranged for us to meet. I don't care if the bond was engineered or manipulated or part of someone's master plan. What I feel is real, Kharo. What we have is real. And I'm not letting Lycaon take that from us too."He stared at me, and I saw the war in his eyes, the need to believe me fighting against years of guilt and manipulation."How can you be sure?" he asked quietly."Because I've died. I've been manipulated, used, betrayed by people I trusted. I know what fake feels like." I moved closer. "This isn't fake. Whatever brought us

  • The Alpha’s Unforgiven Mate   Chapter 69. Liam Had Been Marked From Birth

    BlissI jerked around to find Kharo standing in the doorway, his expression unreadable.My heart hammered. "I…""Found my private correspondence, I see." He stepped into the study and closed the door behind him. "Breaking and entering now, Bliss? Should I add that to the list of concerns Solas has about you?""I wasn't…i just needed…" I stopped, took a breath, and met his eyes. "I needed to understand. Why you've been so careful with Liam. Why you haven't just arrested him despite everything.""So you broke into my desk.""I picked the lock. Technically different."A muscle in his jaw twitched. Not quite a smile, but close. "Technically, that's worse."He moved to the desk and looked down at the scattered letters. For a long moment, he just stood there, studying the evidence of his family's shame laid bare."My father was desperate," he said finally. "The pack was weak. We'd lost territory in the northern conflicts. Other Alphas were circling, looking for opportunity. Marcus Anderson

  • The Alpha’s Unforgiven Mate   Chapter 68. Hidden Letters

    BlissI wasn't supposed to be in Kharo's private study.The compound was in lockdown mode, preparing for tonight's confrontation with Liam. Warriors were being briefed. Positions assigned. The ambush meticulously planned.And I was supposed to be training with Eren, sharpening my combat skills for whatever was coming.But I couldn't shake the feeling that we were missing something. Some piece of information that would make sense of all this chaos.So instead of heading to the training grounds, I'd slipped into Kharo's personal quarters while he was in tactical meetings.The study was exactly what I expected, organized, efficient, every surface clear except for what was currently being worked on. Maps on the walls marking territory boundaries. Bookshelves filled with pack histories and strategic texts. A desk that had seen decades of use.Nothing personal. Nothing revealing.Which meant if there were secrets, they were hidden.I started with the obvious places, desk drawers, filing cab

  • The Alpha’s Unforgiven Mate   Chapter 67. You’re Not Nothing

    BlissFour days until Lycaon's ritual window.Three days until Kharo's vote.And somewhere in there, Liam needed to harvest four more souls to complete his collection.The math was brutal. The timeline impossible.We couldn't win this. Not all of it. Not without sacrifice.I was halfway across the compound when I saw her.Ria.She was standing in one of the courtyards, alone, staring at nothing. Her clothes were rumpled, her hair uncombed, her makeup smeared like she'd been crying.I should have kept walking. Should have ignored her.But something in her posture stopped me.She looked... broken."Ria," I called.She flinched, turning toward me. Her eyes were red-rimmed and empty."What do you want?" Her voice lacked its usual venom. She just sounded tired."Are you okay?"She laughed, bitter, hollow. "Am I okay? That's really what you're asking?""You look…""I look like someone who finally realized she made all the wrong choices. Who threw away everything for a man who never cared. W

  • The Alpha’s Unforgiven Mate   Chapter 65. The Mate Bond Is Powerful

    Kharo"The pack is fractured because our Alpha cares more about his mate's bond than his duty." Solas stood, and the formal gesture sent ice through my veins. "I hereby invoke Article Seven of pack law. I am calling for a vote of no confidence in Alpha Kharo Anderson's leadership."The silence that followed was absolute.Article Seven. The nuclear option. Used only twice in the pack's history, both times ending in bloodshed.Mira looked genuinely troubled now. "Solas, that's extreme…""Is it? How many more wolves have to die before we admit something has to change?" He turned to address the full council. "I'm not suggesting Kharo has acted with malicious intent. I'm suggesting he's compromised. That the mate bond has clouded his judgment. That he's no longer capable of putting the pack first.""The mate bond is sacred," I said, my voice low and dangerous. "Challenging an Alpha to follow it is…""The mate bond is powerful," Solas interrupted. "But it's not absolute. When it interferes
