CHAPTER SEVENTY-FOURCORVIN'S POV“Ahhh!!” I roared in frustration, hurling the whiskey bottle in my hand straight at the full-length mirror across the room. The glass exploded on impact, shards scattering across the polished floor as alcohol splashed over the broken reflection staring back at me. My chest rose and fell violently, my fists trembling uncontrollably at my sides. Even shattered into countless pieces, my reflection still mocked me. It screamed failure. Weakness. Incompetence. Every fragment seemed to laugh at me, reminding me how badly tonight had ended. I had released that article with absolute confidence. It was supposed to destroy Knox's reputation, turn the elders against him, and make everyone question his right to become Alpha. Instead... nothing changed. He still walked out of that hall with Mireya by his side, proud and untouchable, while every elder bowed respectfully until his car disappeared from sight. They had come to celebrate me, yet the moment Knox appea
CHAPTER SEVENTY THREEKNOX'S POV Soon, we arrived back at the mansion. The car came to a smooth stop, and we both stepped out into the cool night air. The estate was unusually quiet, the only sounds coming from the distant chirping of insects and the faint rustling of leaves swaying in the wind. I walked toward the mansion in silence, my mind still trapped inside the events of the evening. Every step felt heavier than the last as countless thoughts crowded my head. Then, it suddenly clicked. There was someone. Someone I had personally trained years ago. An orphan whose entire family had been destroyed because of Elder Aiden's greed. She had sworn revenge with tears in her eyes, and I had turned that hatred into discipline. She had become one of the most skilled female fighters I had ever trained. Loyal. Ruthless. Most importantly... she had absolutely nothing left to lose. She would be the perfect person to protect Mireya while disguising herself as a maid. A quiet sigh escaped my
CHAPTER SEVENTY-TWOKNOX'S POVStanding before such a large crowd had never been easy for me. Everywhere I looked, the faces were nothing but blurs. I couldn't recognize anyone unless it was through their mannerisms, the way they walked, their clothing style, or the photographs Jason had painstakingly made me memorize before we arrived. Every important elder, every business partner, every council member... I had spent hours committing tiny details to memory just so I wouldn't mistake one person for another. It was exhausting. Frustrating. One mistake could expose everything. Every passing second inside that hall only made my irritation grow stronger.The accusations kept coming one after another. My patience snapped little by little until all I wanted was to release Magnus and reduce the entire hall to rubble. Let them all disappear. Let the questions end. Let the judgment stop. Then... I felt her fingers wrap around my arm. Warm. Gentle. Grounding. My body immediately stiffened bef
CHAPTER SEVENTY-ONEMIREYA'S POV“I love your acting skills,” he said with a faint smile that completely shattered the warmth still lingering inside my chest. “Everyone believed it.”For several seconds… I couldn't process his words.They echoed over and over inside my head. Acting? Was that really what he thought?That everything I had said… Every confession. Every emotion. Even that kiss… Was nothing more than a performance?My fingers slowly curled into my palms. “I wasn't acting,” I said quietly. His footsteps came to an immediate halt. The room fell into a suffocating silence.Slowly, he turned back toward me.“What?” He squinted slightly, as though he wasn't sure he had heard me correctly. I took a slow breath. There was no point hiding anymore.Not after confessing in front of an entire hall.“Everything I said earlier...” My voice trembled despite my efforts to steady it. “I meant every single word.”I looked straight at his side profile, hoping my voice alone could convey wha
CHAPTER SEVENTYMIREYA'S POV“What are you doing on the floor?!” My voice rang out in surprise as I stared at the unbelievable sight before me.“Please...” she pleaded, remaining on her knees. “I know the Alpha listens to you.” Her voice trembled ever so slightly as she shuffled closer on the polished floor. “Whenever my son misbehaves... can you please spare him?” she begged. The proud, dignified woman who had looked down on me only moments ago had completely crumbled. Her arrogance was gone, replaced by desperation.A mocking scoff escaped my lips. She already knew Corvin wouldn't stop. She knew exactly the kind of person her son was.Yet here she was... begging before the real disaster had even happened.“If you help me...” she continued, lifting her head until our gazes met, “I'll make sure you become the Luna without any obstacles.”So… it was a negotiation. The corner of my lips lifted slightly. Who said I needed her help?“I...” I started, ready to reject her offer outright.“N
CHAPTER SIXTY-NINEMIREYA'S POVI pierced a deadly glare in Corvin's direction before continuing. Even from where he stood, I could feel his eyes burning into me, waiting for me to hesitate, waiting for me to break. Too bad for him. That Mireya had died the day I walked away from him.“He made me realize how much I was lacking,” I said, my voice remaining steady despite the storm raging inside me. “He filled the empty spaces in my heart without even realizing it.” I slowly turned toward his side, my gaze lingering on his sharp profile. “I left Corvin because I found a better man... a man who knows my worth. A man who respects me, protects me, and makes me feel valued.” A faint smile tugged at my lips despite the tension surrounding us. “And I'm going to love him for the rest of my life, regardless of whatever hardships come our way.”The words left my mouth before I could second-guess them. Knox turned to look at me.Even through his face blindness, I could feel his surprise as he in
CHAPTER NINETEENMIREYA'S POVThe next morning, I woke slowly as the soft morning sunlight spilled through the curtains, illuminating the room with a peaceful glow.No danger.No threats. No fear of being dragged out of bed and accused of something I didn't do.Just silence. Peaceful silence.I sta
CHAPTER EIGHTEEN MIREYA'S POV“I'm begging you.”My voice came out shaky, almost breaking as fear squeezed my chest.I didn't even know who was holding me.All I knew was that moments ago I had sensed danger, panicked, and nearly thrown myself down an entire staircase trying to escape it.Then som
CHAPTER SEVENTEEN KNOX'S POVWhen I arrived at the mansion, I headed directly toward the basement.The moment I entered, the stain of blood greeted me. Comfortingly familiar.“Welcome, Alpha.”Jason bowed. His sleeves were rolled up. Several stains marked his shirt.Judging from his appearance, th
