ALPHA KAEL’s POV.

I paced back and forth in my office, trying to calm my racing mind. Akira had just left, and I couldn't shake off the guilt that clawed at me with each passing second. She didn't understand, she never did. She thought I was being stubborn and rude, but she had no idea what was at stake.

Just as I was starting to calm down, Zephyr walked in, his brows furrowed in concern. "Kael, what's going on? Akira looked like she'd been through a war."

I stopped pacing and turned to face him. "She doesn't get it, Zeph. She thinks I'm being rude and nonchalant, she called me a tyrant, but I know Keiran is playing a game. And Akira...she's too bold, too reckless. She doesn't know when to back down."

Zephyr's expression turned thoughtful. "You're worried about her safety."

I nodded. "Yes, I am. Keiran will stop at nothing to get what he wants, and Akira...she's too innocent and sometimes she does not think shit through before she does it. She thinks everyone is as innocent as she is.

  • The Lycan King’s Breeder   Chapter Fourty : The Enemy within

    Kael's POVThe air tonight was heavy, like something invisible was pressing down on the entire pack. I could feel it in my bones—the tension, the discomfort, the shift. Something was wrong. Worse than usual.I stood outside the chamber, watching as the guards rotated. The moon in the sky was only a crescent, hardly enough to lay down much light. But my instincts didn’t need light. They needed the truth and I was damn close to it."Alpha," my Chief guard, Scar, stood beside me. His tone was strained, low. "We caught someone in front of the records chamber. Trying to slip out without being seen."My jaw snapped tight. "Who?He hesitated, his eyes turning black. "Zephyr."I lay there for a moment. My heart thumped, a drum for war. I didn't want to be right. I wanted to believe Akira was wrong about him. But there it was. Proof."Where is he now?" I barked."In the holding room downstairs.".I didn't wait. My wolf was already moving forward, hungry to greet him. I moved fast down the chil

  • The Lycan King’s Breeder   Chapter thirty nine: The carved plan

    The fire crackled in the hearth of my study, but its warmth didn’t touch the cold inside me. I stood by the tall window, staring out at the dark stretch of forest that surrounded the palace. The moonlight spilled over the treetops like silver blood, painting everything in a pale glow. I wasn’t interested in its beauty. I was thinking, calculating. Time was ticking, and soon, everything I’d worked for would finally fall into place. Kael was slipping. The pack could see it. His obsession with that breeder—Akira, was making him blind to everything else. Losing control. Turning away from tradition. And now, being so protective of her, like a mad wolf trying to protect his last scrap of pride. It was pathetic. Dangerous, too. A weak alpha meant a vulnerable pack. And vulnerability was the perfect opening. I walked back to my desk and opened the drawer, pulling out the sealed envelope that had arrived just before dusk. The wax stamp was unfamiliar. I’d had it checked; no scent, no c

  • The Lycan King’s Breeder   Chapter thirty eight: The storm before the calm

    Akira's POV The next day seemed to come too soon. I barely slept, and when I did, I had strange and fragmented dreams. I woke up tired, with a throbbing headache and a tight chest. The tension wasn't disappearing, it just kept on growing like a storm we could not stop. Kael hadn't said any word all through. We sat across from each other at the table during breakfast, barely touching our food. His mind was elsewhere, and so was mine. Something was happening in the dark, and we were only just starting to see pieces of it. "I don't trust this silence," I said quietly. Kael lifted his head, his eyebrows scrunched. "Neither do I. But we can't rush. We make one wrong step, and Zephyr runs…or worse." I nodded. The memory of Zephyr in the training room last night came back. His calm face. His eyes. How he'd asked, "You trust him?" That wasn't a casual thing to ask. That had been a warning in disguise. Kael pushed his plate aside and stood. "I'm going to the council hall. There's a mee

  • The Lycan King’s Breeder   Chapter thirty seven: Rising Suspicions

    Akira's POV The next morning, the sun was already high, but the weight in my chest had not gone away. I stood by the window, observing outside as the pack guards marched in and out of the courtyard. I saw Kael outside giving commands, his voice sharp and crisp. But I knew better, his sharpness was just external. Deep down, he was carrying too much. After last night's conversation, I didn't sleep well. I kept wondering about Zephyr, how quiet he had been recently, how cautious. Too cautious. Last night's surprise appearance by him after our conversation was no accident. He was observing. A soft knock pulled me out of my thoughts. "Come in," I replied. Sheila-one of the maids-arrived with a tray of food. Her eyes scanned over me rapidly, as though she sensed my nervousness. "Are you okay?” I noticed you didn't come down for breakfast,” she said quietly. “I thought you'd be famished.” "Thanks," I responded, not feeling like eating. She put the tray down and waited. "I'm s

  • The Lycan King’s Breeder   Chapter thirty six: Shadows of betrayal

    Akira’s POVThe weight on the room seemed to press heavily on me as I stood opposite Kael, his intense gaze piercing into me as he tried to read my thoughts. I felt uncomfortable for what I was about to say as I had struggled to confront Kael with it since I started thinking about it but at this point, I seem to be left with no choice. It wasn't just about me surviving anymore, it was about Kael's survival, and the entire pack's."It's about Zephyr."Kael's eyebrow went up, his expression going from bland to interested, but there was something in his eyes—something reserved. "What about him, Akira?" His voice was low, but I could feel under it the underlying frustration, the sense of urgency he usually reserved for problems that threatened the pack.I could feel my stomach form knots. The words were too risky to spit out, and I wasn't sure that I was ready to be burdened with them. But I was. For myself, for Kael, and for the benefit of everyone who had trusted in me."Well, I kind o
