The morning had barely settled over Blackwood Mansion before Alpha Eugene found himself buried beneath work.The large desk inside his chambers was covered with reports. He sat behind the desk with one hand pressed against his temple.His eyes burned from lack of sleep. He couldn't even remember when he had last enjoyed a full night's rest.Too much had happened recently but suddenly he shook his head."I'm working" he reminded himself. The last thing he needed was another distraction. He grabbed another report, only for a knock to sound on the door."Come in" he said without looking up.The door opened then a familiar voice followed."I had a feeling I'd find you buried under paperwork."Eugene immediately recognized the speaker and a faint smile appeared despite himself."Head Councilor Hadrian" he greeted.The older wolf entered. Despite his age, there was still a commanding presence about him.Hadrian glanced around the room then laughed."Eugene, what is all this?" He asked as h
Morning arrived quietly over Blackwood Mansion. Golden sunlight spilled across the massive estate, chasing away the darkness that had seemed determined to cling to every corner of the pack for the past several days.Becca slowly opened her eyes. For several moments she simply lay there staring at the ceiling. The events of the previous days weighed heavily on her.Everything felt tangled together in a giant knot that she couldn't seem to undo.She slowly sat up. A slight ache remained in her body from the attack, but it was much better than before.Carefully pushing aside her blanket, Becca stood. Walking slowly, she approached the large window overlooking part of the courtyard.The cool morning air drifted through the partially opened glass. It felt refreshing against her skin.For a few moments she simply enjoyed the view then movement below caught her attention.Her eyes narrowed slightly to a familiar figure who was crossing the courtyard.It was Tyler.Becca immediately straighte
Kaelyn stared angrily at Jack, ready to reply him when a guard came up to him then he walked away so she she stood frozen in the middle of the hallway long after Jack's footsteps had disappeared.Her entire body trembled from anger and hurt.Her fingers curled into fists.How dare he speak to her like that?She was the mother of Eugene's child, the mother of the future heir, yet lately it seemed everyone in Blackwood Mansion had forgotten that.Mira looked at her with suspicion, Becca looked at her with anger, Max barely tolerated her and now Jack had openly insulted her.Kaelyn blinked rapidly, fighting back tears."No, this is their fault" she muttered. She shook her head, her voice was barely above a whisper.Immediately her thoughts went toward the same people they always seemed to.Becca and Mira were the lead ib the conspiracy theories she formed in her head.Who else could it be?Who else would poison people against her? Certainly not Eugene.He had never spoken to her this wa
The garden had become a crime scene. The dead rogue leader remained sprawled where the guards had dropped him and a few feet away lay the body of the unfortunate guard who had collapsed after touching the corpse.The sight was enough to make every wolf present uneasy and at the center of it all stood Desmond, his expression carefully controlled.However, inside his mind was racing.This is bad, very bad. Perhaps the worst position he had found himself in since Eugene defeated him.Eugene was looking at him suspiciously and that was bad for him.The problem was that Eugene was not stupid. He could be emotional, impulsive, stubborn but he was not stupid and if Eugene truly started suspecting him, everything would become much more difficult.The plans, the manipulations, the slow destruction of Eugene's reign all depended on his freedom to move around the mansion, influence people and act without constant supervision.If Eugene became convinced Desmond was responsible for this poison, th
Kaelyn’s eyes fluttered open slowly.For a moment, she lay still, expecting to feel Eugene’s presence beside her, his steady voice, his warmth, the reassuring weight of his attention.But there was nothing, only the faint scent of herbs and silence.Her brows tightened. She turned her head slightly to see an empty chair, just the healer moving quietly across the room, organizing fresh bandages.Kaelyn pushed herself up slightly.“Alpha Eugene?" She called out softly to him.The healer turned immediately.“You should not be moving yet.”Kaelyn ignored her.“He was here, wasn’t he?”The healer hesitated.“Yes… earlier.”Kaelyn’s expression darkened.“Where did he go?”The healer sighed.“Alpha Eugene had urgent matters to attend to" she replied. Kaelyn’s fingers curled slightly into the sheets.“Becca" she muttered angrily. The healer frowned.“You should not be thinking about that right now. You fainted—”“I’m fine" her voice cut through the room.She swung her legs off the bed and t
Eugene stood a few steps away, his eyes fixed on the corpse with a sharp, unreadable focus. Behind him, Max remained still, alert, watching everything.Eugene took one slow step forward then another. His gaze narrowed slightly as he studied the body more closely.There were no signs of movement and no signs of breathing, just stillness.Max leaned slightly forward.“Eugenw" he called put but he didn’t answer immediately.His instincts were screaming. Something about this felt off.Desmond, standing a few steps behind them, watched carefully. His expression was calm but Inside, however, he was counting.Just a little closer, that was all Eugene needed. Just enough to inhale the poison thathad been carefully released into the air around the body.Desmond’s eyes flickered slightly as he watched Eugene lean in just a fraction more.Yes, that was it.Then Eugene stopped and Desmond’s smile almost faded. He straightened slightly then turned his head slightly toward Max.“Call the guards" he
Becca’s back hit the wooden door with a muffled thud as Desmond’s mouth crashed against hers, rough, forceful and unwanted. His hand gripped her wrist, the other curling against her neck as he tried to deepen the kiss she didn’t want. The taste of wine and arrogance filled her mouth, and her stom
The crowd’s roar was deafening.Wolves filled the massive stone arena, their howls echoing like thunder. The torches ob the walls blazed high into the night, casting a golden glow on the two figures standing in the center. Max’s heart hammered in his chest, but his eyes burned with fierce determi
The crowd was so quiet that Max could hear the faint rustle of the banners above the arena. Brian stood across from him, his head tilted slightly, that familiar cruel grin tugging at his mouth. Max’s jaw tightened, his pulse beat hard in his throat. He hadn’t expected this. Of all the warriors Des
The clinking of silverware faded into the low hum of servants clearing plates. The meal had ended, but no one seemed eager to leave.Eugene poured himself another glass of wine, his movements controlled but thoughtful. Max was silent, elbows resting on the table, staring into the flames. Mira, how
