KAEL'S POV

The grand hall was well decorated in gold and black drapes when I arrived at the ball for our triumph in the war against the Shallow pack.

I adjusted the collar of my tunic for the hundredth time, feeling a bit nervous about what I wanted to do that day.

I was finally going to ask for Isabelle's hand in marriage and Tristan would have no choice but to answer my request because he already gave his word.

An Alpha word was binding and he couldn't refuse my request.

Levi stood beside me, staring at the crowd in the room. He seemed quiet since I arrived but I couldn't face that right now, not when I was thinking of Isabelle.

My gaze sought for her out of instinct. My eyes narrowed as I tried to catch sight of her golden hair in the hall.

I couldn't see her, but she must be here, maybe she's still getting ready. The event started when Alpha Tristan was announced and descended the grand staircase.

The crowd cheered for him as he took the throne and started his address. The whole b

    KAEL'S POV“Alpha, are you very sure the princess rejected the proposal?” I called out, my chest heaving.Tristan paused in his steps and turned towards me. His expression was calm and neutral, but I could see the discomfort in his eyes.“Yes, General.” He replied coolly.The confirmation from Tristan weighed heavily on my heart. The princess had rejected my proposal and it felt like a blade lodged deep in my chest, twisting in my flesh.Tristan had tried to ease the blow of the rejection in the ball by granting me a title, announcing that I would lead the Pack's army in other battles in the future. But none of it mattered to me. Not the power, or the prestige—the only desire I had was Isabelle.I replayed our last moments of us together in her chambers in my mind, searching for where things could have gone wrong. She seemed happy, clutching onto me and I don't know what could have happened to make her reject the proposal.“She must have misunderstood me,” I muttered under my breath.

    KAEL’S POVI followed Isabelle as she rushed back to her villa, keeping my distance but my eyes never left her.My boots echoed in the silent hallway as I approached her chambers, just as she walked in and closed the door behind her. My chest felt heavy, with so many questions swirling in my mind. I couldn’t eat, couldn’t think, and I couldn't move forward without getting my answers.When she opened the door, her expression was tight and guarded. “Kael,” she greeted, with a calm voice.He stepped inside without waiting for an invitation. The tension between them was too much, the air thick with heated emotions.“Why?” I asked, my voice ragged and hoarse as I stepped in. “Why did you reject me? Was everything we shared a lie? Everything between us.”She narrowed her eyes at me, with a neutral expression. “It wasn’t all a lie, Kael. I meant everything I said, everything we felt together. But my heart... it isn’t only yours.”Her words cut me deeper than I expected. I stared at her in c

    ISABELLE'S POVThe moonlight spilt through the curtains as I looked up, my wolf restless. I watched the shadowy figure standing at my bedside. He was tall, draped in red robes, and his face was hidden by a black fallen angel mask. The cold aura from him sent a shiver down my spine, but I refused to show fear.“Who are you?” I echoed.The man tilted his head towards, his voice low and chilling. “I am the Judge,” he snarled. “And I have come to pass judgment on you, Isabelle, for the chaos you bring to those who love you.”I steadied myself, his cold words struck a nerve, but my pride wouldn’t let me show him fear. I sat up, crossed my arms and arched a brow at him. “The Judge, huh? And you are going to punish me?”I felt him stiffen at my sarcasm, and his eyes, the mask, became sharper. “Do not mock me.” He growled. “Your games with Kael, Alan, and others have consequences. Tonight, you will face the punishment for your sins.”“Punishment?” I repeated, my lips curling with a sly sm

    FREYA'S POVAs we got closer to the borders of the Nightfall pack, my heart thundered in my chest. I curled my hands into fists, my eyes flashing as I watched the Alpha's villa on the horizon.I was here with the diplomatic envoy to pay respects to Alpha Tristan, but I had other plans.I was going to meet with Axel and cause chaos within their pack, that would be revenge for everything they have done to us.KAEL'S POVMy heart swelled as I looked down at Isabelle, and my eyes caught the glint of the ring on her finger. It was the very ring I had given her. For a brief moment, hope bloomed in my chest; maybe she had changed her mind about my proposal. Perhaps this was her own way of saying she was ready to be with me.I swayed backwards, “Isabelle... that ring. Does it mean what I think it does? Are you willing to marry me?” I asked with a low growl.Her gaze softened as she caught me, but she still looked hesitant, and then she shook her head slowly. “No, Kael.”That single word was

    ISABELLE'S POVI paced the room, staring at the poisonous flower sitting on the table. The audacity of Freya to present this gift like it was a good gesture burned in my mind.Even though I agreed with Tristan and would stay quiet and avoid any actions that could lead to chaos, I knew I couldn't just let her get away with it. No matter how much I tried to calm down, I just couldn't be a passive player in her nasty game.I paused in my steps staring down at the flower as the gears turned in my mind, trying to figure out my next step.A sly smile crept onto my face as a plan clicked in my mind. I called the potion master back into the room.“I need you to work on the flower and extract the addictive fragrance into a perfume.” I ordered.“What do you mean, Princess.?” He asked, his brows raised.“You heard what I said,” I responded curtly.The master gave a slight bow and then he picked up the flower. I watched over his shoulder as he slowly pried the petals apart and worked with them.A

    MARCELLO'S POV I winced as I adjusted the bandages on my arm, covering the bruises from Isabelle's punishment. My skin burned, from the strokes of the lash. BUT even with the pain, I couldn't stop thinking of her. Here I was, my skin all red because of her but she still lingered in my mind. I just couldn't understand how a woman who had so much authority could also have a softer, teasing side that made my resolve falter. Our conversation now confused me, and I found myself questioning my loyalty—not just to Axel and Freya, but to the mission itself.I heard a knock on the door interrupting my thoughts and I stood up from the side of the bed.Before I got to the door, a small envelope slipped through the small crack and I rushed to pick it up.It was a secret message from the club hideout. I tore through the small paper. It was a message from Lyra. It was a report about the mission, but at the ND she wrote about Axel’s growing rage and his plan to assassinate Isabelle.I squeezed

    AXEL'S POVI rushed through the club still pulsing with anger. Marcello was on my heels following me around.“Axel, you need to drop your plan for revenge, you can't kill the princess.” He ordered.I clenched my jaw, facing away from him. “Okay!” I spat out. I could see him falter at my admittance, narrowing his eyes. “I just need to get my bow and arrow.” I continued.He watched as I took the weapon and left the room. The cold night air bit at my face as I burst out of the club's back door.The princess was not going to get away with this so easily, no matter what Marcello said I was going ahead with my plan.I stood concealed among the trees near the princess's villa. I adjusted the hood of my cloak, settling down and adjusting my weapon.Marcello’s refusal to kill the princess only made me more angry, but I wasn’t one to give up easily. I didn't need any help, I can do this all by my side.My hand tightened around the quiver slung over my back, my mind was entirely focused on my mi

    AXEL'S POVI crouched low on the rooftop, the cold stone pressing painfully against my knees. The cool morning wind bit into my skin, but I stayed frozen in position.Chills crawled into my skin but I shook my head. I can't leave this position after I have been waiting for her for so long.From this distance, I could see the city gate and the road leading out of the pack's borders. I adjusted my position, making sure my bow and poisoned arrow were steady.Through one eye, I spotted the princess's carriage, the woman I spent days tracking finally in front of me. She slowly stepped out, and stood near her car, speaking to a man. Even though I couldn't see her face from this angle, it was obvious who she was from the extravagant dress and the maids standing all around her.Her golden hair flowed down her back, covering the side of her face. I adjusted again till the tip of my arrow was aligned perfectly with her form.“This is it,” I muttered under my breath, my heart racing as I shook

    ALAN'S POVThe moment the announcement was made, a cold wave of shock hit me. I knew I was talented, I had always believed in my abilities as an artist. But the thought of the public voting, of their opinions holding such weight in the competition, was enough to make me question everything. My hands become clammy, his heart drumming in my chest. I shut my eyes tight as the public watched the paintings and chose the winner.This was it, the last moment for my dreams to come through. I took a deep breath as the hall went silent again.Master Levi's voice rang out, slicing through the ringing in my ears and my nervousness. “The winner of this year’s art competition is Artist Alan!”The applause was deafening, followed by loud cheers, the gasps of approval.It was all overwhelming for a moment.I suddenly felt the floor shift under me, my legs now unsteady as I collapsed back onto my seat. I clutched my chest, barely able to breathe. The world around me blurred for a minute as I stood up

Today was the art competition and I knew Alan would be in the heat of it right now.Not knowing what was going on there was almost driving me crazy. A knock echoed in the door and my maid walked in with a tray for my lunch.I nodded in response as she walked in and bowed. I stared at the plate for food as she set it gently on the table.But I had no appetite, not when my stomach was churning with anticipation.“I need you to go to the royal arts competition and report back to me all that's happening there,” I ordered.My maid paused on her way out of the door, her wary eyes landing on me before bowing and stepping out.I wrangled my hands in my lap as I waited for her to return. My heart was pounding loudly as I heard her footsteps on the stairs and then the knock on the door of my chambers.I tore the door open and dragged her to it. “Tell me!” I urged.“Your Highness, the competition is going smooth

    KAEL’S POVThe prison was grim as I strode through the halls, impatient to be back outside under the light of the sun and away from the thick stench.Suddenly the walls went alive with the sounds of agony. Guttural screams echoed off the stone walls, each one filled with pain and begging.As a warrior and a general I had already steeled myself against such sounds, but today, these screams made me pause in my steps.It was a woman’s scream—raw and broken.I turned my head toward the direction of the noise. I had come down here just to oversee Axel’s torture and make sure he broke, but now, I was strung with curiosity that led my steps into the depths of the prison. The warden who was leading me through the walls shot me a wary glance but said nothing as he followed.As I got closer to one of the isolated cells and the sounds, the scent of rot and dampness only grew stronger in the air.The iron bars of the cell were wet with moisture, the single torch in the corridor casting shadows.

    KAEL’S POVI felt a slight tremor under my skin as I strode out of the pack hospital. My conversation with Rowan played on my mind.I hope he got my message loud and clear because I wouldn't want him getting between Isabelle and me. Now that she is with me, I would like to keep her as mine.I pushed the thought back as I remembered Tristan’s last command. I need to pay the spy Axel a visit.The prison reeked of blood, sweat, and decay as the warden led me through the halls.The air hugged thick with the metallic stench of pain and suffering, and the dim torchlight in the warden's hands was hardly enough to light the long dark hallways. I strode through the narrow corridor, my boots echoing against the cold floor. The guards standing at the door of his cell gave me a salute as I waited for the warden to unlock the heavy iron door.As the gate screeched open, I stepped in leaning down to get through the low bar.Once my eyes adjusted to the low light, I saw Axel slumped against the woo

    ISABELLE’S POVThe dim candle cast long shadows across the stone walls of the bathhouse, as I stared down the person standing in front of me. Her body was rigid as she took another step out of the shadows, her piercing gaze fixed on me, but I could see the slight tension in her shoulders. She was trying to hide it, but I knew.“You don’t look pleased to see me,” I said, leaning casually against the bathtub. I trailed my fingers over the marble top, looking away from him.She let out a loud exhale, crossing her arms. “I never expected you to be so bold,” she admitted. Her eyes flickered to the exposed skin, my neck down to my collarbone, “Are you not afraid that Kael will discover… us?”I let out a loud laughter. “Afraid?” I repeated, tilting my head with a sky smile. “And why would I be afraid?”She narrowed his eyes at me, and I could see her hands curl into fist. “Because if he finds out, it won’t end well for either of us.”My smirk deepened. “Oh, you misunderstand everything.

    ISABELLE’S POVThe morning light streamed through the tall windows of my chambers, as I stirred in the silk sheets. The heat from last night still lingered in the air. I turned with exhaustion, my movement sending tiny shocks through her muscles and my mind playing a reminder of Kael’s hands on my body, his lips tracing wet kisses along my skin.A gentle knock on the door pulled me away from the memories as I quickly sat up, pulling the sheets closer to my body.“My Lady,” my maid's soft voice called through the door.One of my maids stepped inside, a basin of warm water in her hands. Her cheeks flushed red with heat as her gaze landed on the scattered bed and my naked body was barely covered by the sheets.“What do you want?” I murmured, stretching my hands over my head lazily.She quickly averted her gaze, setting the basin down on a nearby table. “General Kael tended to you this morning,” she said. “He cleaned your wounds and ensured you were comfortable before leaving.”My lips

    KAEL’S POVI could feel the light of dawn seeping through the curtains, casting a golden glow across the princess's chambers. I stirred awake, my body still warm from the lingering heat of the Isabelle sprawled beside me.I looked down at Isabelle, lying asleep against me, her dark lashes resting against her cheeks, and her breathing slow and even. Something tightened in my chest from the sight of her, so calm and vulnerable in her sleep.For a moment, I just watched her, memorizing every detail and feature of her face. The way her lips were slightly parted, the gentle rise and fall of her chest, the faint bruises along her collarbone. I reached out without thinking, my fingers trailing over her skin, before pulling back. I carefully pulled the blanket up, making sure she was well covered.I wanted to stay. But I couldn't.I quietly slipped out of bed, slowly shrugged my clothes back on and cast one last glance at Isabelle before I left.Once I was fully dressed, I slipped through th

    ISABELLE’S POVThe warm steam hung in the air, wrapping me in heat as I leaned against the edge of the bath. Kael stood across from me, his body stiff and his shoulders tense as if he wanted to run away at any moment. I smirked at his obvious discomfort, finding his hesitation cute."You look like you're preparing for battle, General." I teased, lazily running my fingers across the water.Kael let out a sharp breath. "I don't think we should be doing this, princess." He whispered I raised an eyebrow, my eyes shining with amusement. "And yet, here you are."He hesitated for a moment then he shook his head with a defeated chuckle. "You’re relentless.""I would prefer you use the term determined."He laughed his chest rumbling with the low sound and I used the moment to move closer to him, As I closed the distance between us, Kael tensed slightly but still, he didn't pull away. I suddenly turned around, slowly prying the straps of my dress over my shoulder.He let out a gasp, but coul

I could see he desperately wanted to hurt me, raising his hands towards me with force but the chains held him back.His face was pale from blood loss, but his eyes were locked on mine, flashing with warning and danger.“You think you can endure this, don’t you?” I murmured, “you really think I would let you die so easily and escape your punishment for your crimes?”“There's nothing you can do to make you tell you anything.” He snarled.I chuckled, a low sound that echoed through the room. “You are telling me everything you know.” I was warned.He smirked, but I could see his eyes falter when I pulled out the same poisoned arrow he fired and tried to use to assassinate me.The tip was still stained with Rowan's blood and I didn't bother to clean it. I want him to suffer his same crimes.I trail
