Her boots struck sharply against the polished floor, her heart racing, but not from fear.She felt pure, undiluted anger as the conversation she had overheard replayed over and over inside her head.Ava poisoning Kaelyn's mind, Seraphina manipulating her and both of them planting fears and lies until Kaelyn no longer knew who to trust.Mira clenched her fists. She needed to tell Becca immediately before things got worse or Kaelyn did something she couldn't take back or, Goddess forbid, Seraphina succeeded in whatever twisted game she was playing.Turning a corner, Mira quickened her pace. Becca's room wasn't far now. Just a little farther.Suddenly two guards stepped directly into her path and Mira stopped so abruptly that her gown swung around her legs then her eyes narrowed."What are you doing?" She demanded. Neither guard moved, bowed or ste
The tension inside Becca's room had become almost unbearable.Nobody sat down anymore or even relaxed. The air itself felt charged. One wrong word or one wrong look and the entire situation would explode.Eugene had entered the room, Becca stood near the bed and Tyler remained between them, not intentionally but somehow that was where he had ended up and the position wasn't helping anyone, especially Eugene.The Alpha King exhaled slowly. He was tired of arguments, misunderstandings and feeling like every conversation with Becca somehow became a battlefield.Yet despite everything, he had come here for a reason and he wasn't leaving until he had said what he needed to say."You need to listen" he said.His voice cut through the room and Becca folded her arms."What now?"Eugene ignored the attitude. Instead he focused on the reason he had come."I spoke with Kaelyn" he started. Immediately Becca's expression changed. Her eyes narrowed and Tyler noticed it instantly while Eugene cont
Kaelyn returned to her room feeling emotionally exhausted. The encounter with Eugene still replayed inside her mind.The way he had caught her, the concern in his eyes, the way he had defended Becca.That part bothered her the most.Despite everything that had happened, Eugene still believed in Becca and the realization made Kaelyn's chest tighten painfully.The door closed softly behind her.Ava immediately looked up from where she was gently rocking the baby."There you are" she said.Kaelyn walked slowly toward the bed, her shoulders drooped and Ava immediately noticed."What happened?" She asked.Kaelyn sat down heavily. For several moments she simply stared at the floor then she finally spoke."I did what you told me" she replied. A small smile appeared on Ava's face."And?"Kaelyn hesitated."I told him about what happened in the healer's chambers and he said he would speak with Becca" she replied but she looked uncertain.Ava smiled wider."Perfect" she said, her delight obvio
The moment Eugene stepped into the room, the atmosphere changed.It wasn't dramatic, yet somehow the entire room felt different.Tyler immediately noticed it, so did Becca and for a brief moment, nobody spoke.Eugene's eyes lingered on their joined hands then Becca released Tyler's hand and stood from the bed.The movement was slightly awkward due to her recent injuries and Tyler instinctively moved as if to help her.Eugene noticed that too and his jaw tightened slightly, not enough for anyone else to notice.Becca folded her arms."What are you doing here?" She asked.The irritation in her voice was impossible to miss and Eugene blinked. Not because of the question but because of the way she asked it, as though he was unwelcome in her room.His concern quickly mixed with frustration."I came to see you" he said.Becca laughed softly but the sound lacked warmth."Really?"Eugene frowned."Yes."Silence followed then Tyler immediately sensed trouble and unfortunately, he happened to b
The healer stood beside Becca one final time after completing another thorough examination. Her experienced hands moved carefully over Becca's wrist before she finally nodded in satisfaction."Good" she said.Becca immediately brightened."Good?"The healer nodded her head."Yes, good" she replied. Becca smiled."That's what I wanted to hear" she said.The healer straightened."Both you and the baby are stable" she added.Relief washed over Becca immediately.No matter how many times she heard those words, they never stopped comforting her.The healer pointed a finger toward her."However."Becca groaned."There is always a however" she said."There is when you are involved" the healer shot at her.Tyler quietly hid a smile while Mira outright laughed.The healer ignored her completely."You are still recovering, which means no running, no arguing, no wandering and absolutely no leaving the mansion" she instructed, emphasising every word.Becca opened her mouth then closed it as a si
Kaelyn smoothed the fabric of her dress and lowered her eyes."Thank you," she said softly.Eugene nodded."Try not to run through the hallways" he instructed softly. A nervous laugh escaped her."I wasn't running.""You were definitely running."Kaelyn smiled sheepishly."Maybe a little."For a brief moment, the interaction felt normal then Alpha Eugene remembered something and his brow furrowed slightly."Where were you going in such a hurry?" He asked.Kaelyn hesitated."I was actually looking for you" she replied. Eugene raised an eyebrow."What happened?"Kaelyn glanced down the corridor before looking back at him."The baby was getting sleepy so I asked Ava to take him back to my room" she started.Eugene nodded slowly."And?"Kaelyn's expression became more serious."I wanted to speak with you privately."Immediately, Eugene felt wary. The last thing he needed right now was more drama."What about?" He asked.Kaelyn bit her lip, carefully practiced."It concerns Becca" she an
The torches lining the walls of the grand mansion cast flickering golden light on the polished stone floor. Each flame cracked softly in the eerie silence of the corridors, save for the occasional gust of wind whispering through the narrow windows.Kyra moved quickly, her footsteps light but swift
The night was heavier than usual. Even the air carried an anxious silence, thick and oppressive, like the mansion itself was holding its breath, listening, watching, waiting. Kaelyn’s pulse thundered in her ears as she darted through the dim corridors, her cloak whipping behind her like a trail of
The smell of crushed herbs and boiling water hung in the air like a heavy fog, curling around Alpha Desmond’s senses and dragging him reluctantly toward consciousness. The first thing he became aware of was the muted flicker of torchlight through his eyelids. The second was the sickly-sweet scen
The sacred grounds were alive with energy. The sky, painted in hues of deep indigo and silver, framed the full moon as it hovered in its zenith, casting an ethereal glow over the arena. Among the sea of voices, one name surged louder than the rest. “Alpha Eugene! Alpha Eugene! Alpha Eugene!” C
