Dorian’s POV

I didn’t remember walking out of his office. One moment I was standing there, frozen, trying to process what he had just said and the next thing I knew was that I was already halfway down the corridor. My steps were steady and it looked like my body had taken over while my mind struggled to catch up.

They’re still alive.

The words echoed in my head, over and over again. Which only means Alpha Caden and Lena aren’t her real parents.

Sera’s parents.

Alive.

Not gone.

Not lost.

    DORIAN'S POVThe messenger's final words settled over the courtyard like a heavy storm cloud."His grave is empty."For a heartbeat, the world seemed to stop.The breeze that had been rustling through the training yard suddenly felt colder. Every sound faded into the background until all I could hear was the pounding of my own heart.Logan was the first to recover."Repeat that."His voice was calm, but there was enough steel in it to make the messenger flinch.The young guard swallowed nervously."The guards assigned to watch over Dr. Kade's burial site reported signs of disturbance just before sunrise. When they inspected the grave..." He hesitated, his face paling. "The coffin was open, my Alpha.""And?" I demanded."They found it empty."Silence.No one moved.No one breathed.My mind rejected the possibility almost immediately.Dr. Kade had been buried with full honors. I had stood beside his grave. I had watched every shovelful of earth cover his coffin. Soldiers had guarded the

    Dorian's POVThe heavy doors of the council chamber shut behind me with a dull thud, but instead of relief, the sound only reminded me that the battle inside that room was over—and I had walked out on the losing side.I kept moving.If I stopped now, someone would notice.Someone would see the exhaustion I had spent the last several hours burying beneath a calm face and measured words.The palace corridors were unusually quiet. A few servants stepped aside as I approached, bowing respectfully before continuing with their duties. I acknowledged none of them. My body continued walking on instinct while my mind remained trapped inside that council chamber, reliving every humiliating second.Caden had only been back at the palace for two days.Two days.That was all it had taken for him to remind everyone why he had once ruled with absolute authority.I hated admitting it, even to myself, but his strategy had been flawless.He hadn't walked into that meeting hoping to win.He had walked i

  • The Beta's Regret: ONCE REJECTED, NOW MY EX'S QUEEN    CHAPTER 186

    Dorian's POVTwo days had passed since Valthera abducted Enzo and Damien.Although the twins were safely back inside the palace walls, my mind refused to move on from what had happened. Every conversation, every expression on Valthera's face, every word she had spoken replayed endlessly in my head, as though my mind was trying to uncover something I had overlooked.I sat alone in my office, my elbows resting on the polished wooden desk while my eyes wandered toward the wide window overlooking the palace courtyard.The palace looked peaceful again.Servants moved about carrying out their duties.The royal guards had resumed their patrols.Children could be heard laughing somewhere in the gardens.To anyone looking from the outside, everything appeared normal.But I had lived long enough to know that appearances were often deceptive.Peace on the surface did not always mean peace beneath it.A slow breath escaped my lips.Enzo and Damien had recovered surprisingly well from the ordeal.

    Mila's POVThe room was quiet.Too quiet.I sat by the window with my legs tucked beneath me, absentmindedly turning my phone over in my hands while my thoughts wandered in circles. Outside, the palace gardens were alive with color. Birds fluttered between the trees, servants moved about their duties, and the breeze carried the sweet scent of blooming flowers through the open window.It should have been calming.Instead, I barely noticed any of it.No matter how hard I tried to distract myself, my mind always drifted back to the same person.My father.Alpha Caden.Ever since Logan revealed that he had escaped from the palace prison, I hadn't been able to think straight. When I first heard the news, I had been overwhelmed with relief. I remembered smiling so widely that my cheeks hurt. I remembered thanking the Moon Goddess because I believed he had finally been given another chance.But that happiness hadn't lasted.Not even a full day.Reality had slowly settled in.He hadn't been r

    Dorian's POV"Sera! Open your eyes!"The words tore from my throat as I caught her before she could hit the floor. Her body had gone completely limp, all strength draining from her in an instant. My heart pounded wildly while I lowered her carefully onto the bed, my hands trembling despite every effort to stay calm."Sera... please."I gently tapped her cheeks, hoping for any sign that she could still hear me. Nothing.The room had become unnaturally quiet, as though the strange light that had filled it moments earlier had stolen every sound along with it. Even the air felt different, thick and oppressive, pressing heavily against my lungs.Panic tightened around my chest.Only moments ago we had both been staring at those mysterious markings that had suddenly appeared across the bedroom wall. Neither of us had understood what they meant, but before either of us could react, Sera had simply collapsed.My thoughts raced through countless terrible possibilities.Had someone cursed her?

    Dorian's POVThe evening after my unsettling meeting with Valthera should have been peaceful, but the weight of her words refused to leave my mind. Every sentence she had spoken echoed inside my head, twisting into darker possibilities with every passing hour. I had tried convincing myself that she was only manipulating me, that everything she claimed about Caden was another attempt to force my hand. Yet sleep came reluctantly, and when it finally did, it dragged me into a nightmare unlike anything I had ever experienced."Sera!" I shouted, my voice cracking as I sprinted toward the palace entrance. "Please stop!"Ahead of me, Sera was no longer herself.Her massive wolf form thundered across the courtyard, every stride shaking the stone beneath her paws. Guards rushed to intercept her, raising their weapons despite the terror written across their faces. They believed they could restrain her.They were wrong."Get out of her way!" I yelled desperately. "She'll kill you if you stay the

    Two weeks.Fourteen days, and somehow Dorian Crest had dismantled every wall I’d spent six years building — not by force, not by charm alone, but by being relentlessly, almost irritatingly consistent. He said he would call and he called. He wanted to understand the pack’s trade challenges and sat w

    Six Years Later“Enzo! Damien! I swear if you two don’t—”The blur of small bodies shot past me so fast the stack of documents in my arms nearly went with them, papers fanning out in every direction as I grabbed the wall to steady myself.“SORRY MAMA!” Enzo’s voice was already halfway down the corr
