DORIAN'S POV

The moment the figure stepped through the doorway, my entire body froze. My hand slipped from Sera's without me realizing it. For several seconds, I could only stare. Because the man standing in the doorway was supposed to be dead. Not missing. Not hidden. Dead. I had seen people mourn him. I had watched healers speak about his legacy. I had heard stories about the tragedy that destroyed him. Yet he stood before us now. Alive. Breathing.

Looking older than I remembered but very muc

    DORIAN'S POVThe moment the figure stepped through the doorway, my entire body froze. My hand slipped from Sera's without me realizing it. For several seconds, I could only stare. Because the man standing in the doorway was supposed to be dead. Not missing. Not hidden. Dead. I had seen people mourn him. I had watched healers speak about his legacy. I had heard stories about the tragedy that destroyed him. Yet he stood before us now. Alive. Breathing.Looking older than I remembered but very much alive. The room fell silent. Even the healers stopped moving. Nobody knew what to do. Nobody knew what to say. I was the first person to find my voice. "Dr. Kade?" I said slowly and moved forward slightly to confirm if what I was seeing was right. His gaze shifted toward me briefly. Recognition flashed across his face before disappearing. "What are you doing here?" I asked again but Kade didn't answer. What he did next shocked me. Instead, he walked into the room. Not hurriedly. Not cautiousl

    SERA'S POV"You have to die so your soul can return to The One." For several seconds, I genuinely believed I had heard him wrong. The room became eerily quiet after the words left Alpha Caden's mouth. Nobody moved. Nobody spoke. The healers stood frozen. The guards near the door looked uncomfortable. Even Valthera lowered her head as though she couldn't bear to look at me. My heart slammed painfully against my ribs. I stared at Caden. Waiting for him to correct himself. Waiting for him to explain that I misunderstood. Waiting for someone to laugh and tell me this was some horrible joke.Nobody did. The silence stretched longer. And with every passing second, reality settled deeper into my chest. He meant every word. My legs suddenly felt weak. The room seemed to tilt slightly around me. I blinked several times. Yet nothing changed. Caden still lay on the bed. Valthera still looked guilty. And everyone else still looked like they were attending a funeral. Except the person whose funera

    SERA'S POVThe moment the guard mentioned Alpha Caden, every trace of comfort I had felt after seeing Enzo and Damien disappeared. My heart immediately tightened with worry.nThe guard's expression alone was enough to tell me that whatever had happened was serious. Very serious. I exchanged a glance with Dorian before turning back to my sons. Enzo was already standing while Damien remained seated, his expression unreadable as always. "We'll go and see what happened," I said softly.Enzo frowned immediately. "Mother, should we come with you?" He asked softly. The concern in his voice warmed my heart despite the circumstances. I smiled and reached out to touch his cheek."No. You can't. Go to your rooms and rest. We'll talk again tomorrow", I said silently, patting his shoulders and blinking cutely at Damien. His lips parted as though he wanted to argue. Damien spoke before he could. "She's right." He said and Enzo looked at him. Damien rose from his chair and folded his arms. "If someth

    SERA'S POVThe moment the door opened, every muscle in my body became tense. The strange feeling that had followed me from the hospital suddenly intensified, settling heavily inside my chest as my eyes landed on the figure sitting comfortably inside the room. The stranger occupied one of the chairs near the fireplace as though the room belonged to him, as though neither Dorian nor I had any right questioning his presence.For a brief second, I couldn't breathe.nThe shadows dancing across the room distorted his features, making him appear larger than he should have been. My mind immediately returned to the dark space. To the creature. To The One. To the cold voice that still echoed inside my head. Fear crawled up my spine before I could stop it. Beside me, Dorian instinctively stepped forward. His body shifted slightly in front of mine. Protective. Alert. Ready to fight. I knew that posture. I had seen it countless times before.The sight should have comforted me. Instead, my pulse onl

  • The Beta's Regret: ONCE REJECTED, NOW MY EX'S QUEEN    CHAPTER 136

    DORIAN'S POVThe palace felt different on the journey back from the hospital. Perhaps it was because too much had happened within a single day. Perhaps it was because I had spent hours watching Sera lie unconscious while healers debated whether they could save her. Or perhaps it was because every instinct inside me kept whispering that something had changed.Something important.Something dangerous.The corridors stretched before us as guards and servants moved aside the moment they saw us approaching. Their eyes lingered on Sera longer than necessary, and I understood why. Word traveled quickly inside the palace. Everyone knew she had nearly died. Everyone knew something had happened. Nobody knew exactly what. Not even me. I glanced toward Sera as we walked beside each other. She looked calm. Too calm.Her face carried no sign of the fear she had shown while describing the dark space and the creature that called itself The One. Yet I knew her well enough to recognize the tension hidd

    ALPHA CADEN'S POVThe silence that settled inside my office after Valthera's revelation felt heavier than any battlefield I had ever stood upon. Neither of us spoke immediately. Neither of us moved. The weight of what she had just said lingered between us like an invisible blade hanging over our heads, waiting for the perfect moment to fall.I slowly lowered myself back into my chair while Valthera remained standing near the center of the room. The fire burning inside the fireplace crackled softly, but its warmth no longer reached me. All I could hear was that name. The One. After all these years. After centuries of silence. After generations spent convincing ourselves that we had succeeded. It had finally returned. A bitter laugh almost escaped my throat but I held back. The truth was that it had never truly left. We had simply become arrogant enough to believe we had won. My fingers tightened around the armrest. Across the room, Valthera finally moved. She walked toward one of the
