Masuk*FREYA*Lyra tugs at my arm and I turn back to her. “You should leave.”I shake my head frantically. “I can't leave without seeing Leonidas.”“Don't you get it?!” She hisses, panic rising in her voice. “You are going to get hurt.”“I am capable of protecting myself, ” I snap, voice harsher than I intended. “But—” she tries to protest but Kieran squeezes her arm gently. He lift his head and hold his gaze. “Let her go. It's best she does. We don't know how Leonidas is doing. ”The foot steps echo louder and without warning, Alera bolts to the corridor screaming. “Help! a rogue just broke free!”I stiffen. What is she doing? The footsteps halt and a voice barks. “What are you doing here, omega?! ”We heard Alera gasps for breath and we exchange glances. “I came to feed to feed the former beta and his mate as the Alpha ordered me to. On my way out, I saw a rogue break free from his cell.”“That is impossible, ” one of the guard says. “Are you sure about this , Omega? ”“Yes,” come

*FREYA*I quickly wrap the veil around my face, trying to brush past her. She grabs my arm stopping me. “Freya, where have you been ? ”My heart stutters.Damn it.“I'm sorry, I don't know who is that,” I say, averting my gaze . “I'm not Freya.”“Don't lie to me. I know you are Freya. ”My stomach drops.Shit!I should have known I would run into her somehow and made a plan for it. I bite down on my lips, thinking if what to do.Should I keep on denying or just tell her the truth?No, I can't.What if she's on Dorian's side?“Is it really you Freya?” her shaky voice cuts through my thoughts and I lifts my head slowly to meet her teary gaze.A sharp gasp tears from her throat, a hand flying to her mouth in disbelief.“It's really you.”I say nothing, eyes searching her face for any hidden motive.But my guts tells me she's innocent.Tears are slipping down her cheeks as she throws herself into my arm.“Oh Freya. I thank Selene for bringing you back to me.”The doubt in my chest slowl

*FREYA* The guard leads us towards the stairs and stops in front of a door. He turns to us, his face still set in a scowl. “This is the Alpha's room, ” he says in a gruff voice, shooting me a nasty stare. He storms off after saying that and both I and Eira don't bother thanking him. As soon as he's out of earshot, I turn to Eira. “Do you think Dorian recognizes you? ” she whispers, casting a wary glance across the floor. My brows knit. “I really don't know.” Now that I think about it, his reaction is quite odd. He saw my face even though the lower half was covered with a black veil, he should have recognized me. But he made no mention of it. Does it mean Eira's plan of masking my scent worked? As if she can read my thoughts, Eira whispers back, “ That's a good thing. We don't have to worry about him for now.” I nod in agreement and we both turn to face the door. I freeze. This is Leonidas's room. Dorian took his place and his room too. He really has no sham

Anger simmer
*LEONIDAS* Silence falls in the deserted hall leaving just me and her. Lyra and Kieran sit across long dining table, watching me suspiciously. I ignore them filling my plate and hers. It was bound to happen anyway—the pack members not accepting her. I understand their grievances. Human hunt
*LEONIDAS* No matter how I try to, I can't let go of her. It's the pull. I say to myself but I know better. The sight of the freckles scattered across her cheeks like tiny stars even as she lay in my arms, sends strange warmth across my chest. I want this. I want to hold her. I should hat
*FREYA* The air thickens with a formidable aura as the Alpha continues to walk toward the cackling fire. Panic explodes in my chest and I hastily hold on to the hood still around his neck. I hold on to it like my life depends on it as I try to steer him around but it doesn't stop him , instead,
*FREYA* The hooded man strides towards me slowly with feline grace amidst the whispers. My pulse spikes with each step he takes. He slows to a stop in front of me and I lower my gaze, holding my breath. I can feel the heat of his gaze crawling down my skin. Who exactly is this man? He wordless
