ログインMarvin When Renz left my room, the weight I had been holding back crashed down on me, heavier than I expected. I stared down at my hands, and for a moment, it felt like I was still holding the blood of an innocent omega. “But she wasn't innocent,” I tried to convince myself, yet the words refused to settle. No matter how hard I pushed, I couldn't breathe past the heaviness in my chest. I turned away and took several gulps of wine. I hadn't eaten anything since morning, and immediately I felt my stomach twist as the alcohol burned its way down. So much had happened ever since I took over. Speaking of which, I reached for my second phone, the one I had sworn not to use yet. I paused mid-dial. My thumb hovered before I cut the call. I tried again, then stopped once more, setting the phone down entirely. I paced my chambers, back and forth, then moved to the window. The morning air brushed against my skin, cool and steady. For a brief moment, it calmed me, but it didn't last. The w
By this time of the morning, omegas are already at their duty posts, doing their respective activities, which include breakfast and every other chore.It made a cold pit settle in my stomach as I hurried out of the kitchen floor towards the servant quarters, only to feel certain eyes following me.I didn’t stop, I forced my way in, only to spot Sable slipping through the narrow, shabby hallway. Her face was twisted in a deeper, sharper disgust, and her eyes dragged over me slowly, deliberately, like she wanted me to feel every ounce of her hatred.“Hope you are satisfied now? Having led that innocent omega to an early grave, just by associating with you,” Sable said, her voice filled with venom as she hissed and turned away.I wanted to stop her, to grab her arm and demand she explain what she meant, but I couldn’t bring myself to fully process those words. They struck me like a brutal blow to the face, knocking the very air from my lungs in one merciless hit.My steps faltered, my ba
RenzI'm so upset as I leave Marvin's room, feeling my blood rise up my spine. This wasn't the Marvin I had known for so long now. He had truly changed, and that isn't sitting well with me.I must have been truly quiet this entire time, but that doesn't mean I'm in any way giving him a thumbs up for all he had done.He might be the Alpha, but beyond that, he was my friend first. Or at least, he used to be. Subjecting a lonely omega to such a level of punishment wasn’t justified. It was cruel, unnecessarily cruel, no matter what she or her friend might have done.And then the question… asking if she was my mate.That made it worse.So I should only care if she is my mate? If she isn’t, then I’m supposed to feel nothing? Not even basic concern?What the hell has gotten into him?I was supposed to return to my room, collapse into my bed, and finally get some proper rest after an entire night of sleeplessness. But the information I had just received this morning refused to let me settle.
The drive wasn't anything but twisting in a certain way, bringing back sad, dark past and nostalgic feelings I didn't even want to dwell on.Also, that piece of information Pascal delivered was just so unexpected. I still remembered that piece of information from ten years ago, while I was still out of my pack for my strategic training, when the news of her parents’ execution got to me.It wasn't one piece of information I enjoyed, especially when I learnt they had a daughter Alpha Philip wasn't aware of.He was so mean and rude to have passed that judgment for a crime as simple as what they committed.I had felt a deep, lingering pity for the poor child. No one, absolutely no one, let alone a child, deserved to endure such cruelty.The judgment passed on her parents had been harsh, unnecessarily so, for a crime that hardly warranted such severity. It spoke of a man who ruled without restraint.When I eventually returned to check out affairs regarding my pack and then returned back to
Marvin“Far from it. Must she be my mate for me to care that much? Isn’t she also a living being who deserved the slightest bit of compassion?”Renz asked, and something in my chest tightened painfully as I turned towards the drawer, pulling it open to select my clothes, a simple dark shirt and grey pants. At least she wasn’t his mate. Because if she had been, I would have been pacing off the walls by now, restless, violent, until the bones in my palms cracked under the pressure.“She was a living soul, and I don’t find it settling that things turned out that way. Besides, she brought it upon herself when she plotted with that guard to help Rita escape, which you know the punishment wasn’t meant to be any lighter.”“And yet, the same Rita you so much despised even after everything, the same one you had punished brutally without closer investigation and accused wrongly, is the same one you left in your room all night. Don’t you think you aren’t doing these things correctly? Don’t you t
MarvinI returned to the office after that encounter with Rita, my chest rising and falling with restrained fury, the kind that clawed at my insides yet refused to find release, no matter how hard I tried to let it loose.“How dare she speak to me like that? I’m certain of it now,” I muttered under my breath, my jaw tightening as heat coursed through my veins. The night dragged endlessly, stretching into something unbearable, and for reasons I couldn’t quite place, Kendrick remained unusually silent.Silly wolf.The silence pressed harder than any words could have. The hours crept by with me barely holding onto control, clinging to that thin thread of restraint, forcing myself not to storm back into that room and make her pay for every single word she had dared to throw at me.Did the words reach me… yeah.Was I afraid she was going to do me any harm by staying close, as I had instructed?... No.And why did I even want her to always stay within the confines of that room?... That I wou
RitaI was beyond pissed, to say the least.Standing there with the guards’ grip locked tightly around my wrist, being accused of a crime I knew nothing about… it was enough to make something in me snap, short-circuiting every ounce of control I had left.And then out of nowhere, Sable showed up wi
MarvinIt took me days locked up, absent from the entire world, absent from the pack and the elders who had suggested I either abide by their judgment or bid my position goodbye, because they couldn't risk the consequences of burying her in the packlands over mere feelings.I can't contact my dad.
Rita I'm still wrestling with my thoughts when they approached me.“What kept you so long?” I muttered softly, but the urgency in my tone can't be denied.The guards never answered. Instead, they exchanged brief glances among themselves and maintained their silence as they closed the distance betw
RitaPlan B was a little tricky, just like Kate had warned. My eyes were wider than intended and my heart was pounding nervously in my chest when Kate leaned in to whisper every step of the plan along the way.I was blown away, to say the least. She was a genius. But even then, I could see the reas
