The Rejected Hybrid: The Alpha Wants Us Back 171
Just as the silence in the mansion settled into something close to peace, Dalton’s phone buzzed on the mantle. He reached for it absently, still holding Daniella’s hand, until his eyes flicked to the caller ID.“Mom,” he muttered, frowning.Daniella turned toward him slightly, sensing his shift in energy.He answered, pressing the phone to his ear. “Mom?”Her voice came through in a rush, almost panicked tone. “Dalton, you need to come, he’s here, he won’t leave, I tried, he says, says he wants”“Mom, slow down,” Dalton interrupted, his voice steady but firm. “Take a breath. You're talking too fast, I can’t understand you.”There was a pause on the line. Then Maeve’s voice came again, more controlled but still trembling. “It’s Liam. He showed up at the Riverdale gates an hour ago. He says he’s not leaving until he sees Daniella. Until he gets his daughter back.”Dalton’s blood turned to ice.“Did he say or do anything threatening?”“No,” Maeve replied. “Not yet. But he looks… unhinged

Luna Arya was dragged from the Alpha's mansion, her head held low, her shoulders shaking, but not from remorse. Her silence was eerie, unsettling to the guards flanking her on either side. As they led her through the pack grounds, whispers rippled like wildfire among those who caught sight of her—pack members pausing in their duties, eyes wide in shock."Is that... Luna Arya?""What's going on? Why is she being taken like that?""The Alpha wouldn’t allow this unless..."The unspoken conclusion lingered heavy in the air. Something was terribly wrong.Back at the Alpha’s mansion, the elders and top-ranking officials had gathered in his living area, the tension was almost suffocating. The once-majestic room felt like a battlefield of grief and betrayal. Alpha Czar was seated, his eyes bloodshot, jaw clenched. Daniella sat beside him, her face pale, her expression unreadable, Dalton by her side offering silent strength.Czar took a deep breath, then spoke."I have summoned you all here be

Arya's eyes flew open. "No... no, that wasn’t me—Daniella, you’ve got it wrong." Her voice shook, but there was a strange calmness behind it, like she was trying too hard to sound innocent.Daniella shook her head slowly, gaze unwavering. “I saw you. You told us we would be safe. You led my mother out under the pretense of rescue, and they were waiting.”“She’s confused,” Arya insisted, her voice rising as she looked at Czar, then to the others. “Trauma plays tricks. She was a child. You can’t trust fragmented memories.”“Don’t!” Daniella snapped, her voice hoarse. “Don’t gaslight me! I remember! I remember her clutching my hand, the panic when the guards surrounded us. She tried to fight, but they drugged her. She begged them to spare me. And you just stood there. Watching, smiling and making fun of us.”Arya’s composure cracked. She backed into a nearby armchair, her face draining of color, her lips parting in silence.“Arya,” Czar’s voice was a dangerous growl now, low and tremblin

The news spread like wildfire that the Alpha had found his lost daughter and heir. One by one, pack members made their way to the grand hall, and by the time Alpha Czar arrived, flanked by Daniella, Dalton, Marcus, and Elora, the great pack hall was already crowded.Alpha Czar entered first, his posture tall, shoulders squared with pride, the years of burden momentarily erased by joy. At his side walked Daniella—Habibah, her head high though her eyes shimmered with awe and disbelief. Dalton followed closely, never straying far from her. Marcus and Elora brought up the rear, solemn but supportive.The moment Czar stepped onto the podium, the murmurs ceased completely.“My people,” he said, voice booming and resonant, “tonight, I stand before you as a man made whole.”A ripple of joy ran through the crowd.“For many years, my heart carried a wound that no time could close. My wife, Elizabeth, was taken from me. And with her, our daughter, our only child, was lost.”He paused, placing a

The descent into the underground chamber was made in silence.Alpha Czar led the way, his expression rigid, each step he made showed a decade of grief and hope. Behind him, Daniella walked beside Dalton, their hands brushing, hers trembling, his firm and grounding. A few paces behind, Marcus and Elora followed quietly, their presence steady, witnesses to something greater than any of them yet fully understood.The narrow spiral stairwell opened to a wide, arched hallway lit by oil sconces that flickered along the pathway. The air was cool and still, as though it hadn’t been disturbed in years.Daniella hesitated just outside the threshold. The heavy stone door stood ajar, per Czar’s instructions, the seals broken earlier that morning. A faint hum of memory stirred within her chest, like a half-forgotten melody.“This way,” Czar said quietly, his voice softer than before, reverent.They stepped into the chamber.The room was vast and circular, hewn into stone, its walls inscribed with

As soon as Alpha Czar stepped out of Dalton's room, he sent a swift mind-link to the pack kitchens."Prepare hot herbal tea for Luna Daniella. Something calming with mint and valerian. And breakfast for four. Have it delivered to Dalton's quarters within the hour."The acknowledgment came promptly, and with that done, Czar turned away, walking down the corridor at a measured pace. But inside him, a storm was brewing.His footsteps echoed against the stone floor as he wandered aimlessly through the halls, finally stepping out into the open, letting the crisp morning air wash over him. The sky was pale and golden, the horizon still kissed by early dawn, but none of the beauty reached him. He took a long path toward the southern garden, letting instinct guide his feet. The place had once been Elizabeth’s favorite.Elizabeth.The name lodged like a stone in his throat.He had not thought of her this clearly in years. Not since the day she and Habibah vanished, leaving only questions and a
