Aarhea’s Point of ViewI sat on the balcony, the moonlight spilling across my hands. My thoughts had been a storm since I confronted Jake. No past. No records. No answers. Just silence.The door creaked open. Jake stepped out, quiet as always, and leaned against the railing.“You’ve been avoiding me,” he said softly.I didn’t look at him. “I don’t know what to think anymore.”“I know.” His voice carried a weight I couldn’t ignore. “And I know I’ve given you every reason to doubt me.”I finally met his eyes. “Then why not just tell me the truth, Jake? Why keep me in the dark?”He took a step closer. “Because the truth will bring more danger than peace. You think knowing will calm your heart, but it won’t. It will only put a target on your back.”I swallowed hard. “So I’m just supposed to… trust you? Without knowing anything?”“Yes,” he said firmly. Then his voice softened. “Not because I deserve blind trust, but because everything I’ve done, every fight, every breath I take...it’s f

Aarhea’s Point of ViewAmara was sitting close to me in the study room, her voice low.“Aarhea, you know it’s true. Jake is dangerous. If you really want peace, you need to let him go. Logan is the one who can stand beside you.”I gave a faint nod. “Maybe you’re right. Maybe I’ve been blind.”Before Amara could answer, the door opened. Roman stepped inside, calm, his hands behind his back. His eyes swept over both of us.“Talking about Jake again?” Roman asked.Amara straightened. “Yes, Roman. Aarhea deserves to know—”“Enough,” Roman cut her off. His voice was calm but sharp. “Do you want the whole palace to hear you? Sit down.”Amara fell silent. I narrowed my eyes. “Why are you so quick to silence her, Roman?”Roman gave me a polite smile. “Because words can destroy faster than claws, Alpha Aarhea. And you don’t need rumors shaping your judgment.”“Rumors?” I repeated.“Yes,” he said smoothly. “Amara and Logan may be passionate, but sometimes passion blinds. You should not make dec

Aarhea’s Point of ViewThe next morning, the whispers were louder. Servants paused when I walked past, guards exchanged glances they thought I wouldn’t notice. Every look felt like a question..."What is Alpha Aarhea hiding?"I found Amara in the garden, sitting with her arms crossed. She looked up when I approached.“You’ve heard it too,” she said flatly.“Yes,” I admitted. “And I know where it started.”“Dad,” she muttered bitterly. “He’s spreading it in small pieces, like poison. By the time you notice, it’s everywhere.”I sat beside her. “Why? What does he gain from destroying my image?”Amara turned to me. “Control. If the pack doubts you, he steps in as the voice of reason. He doesn’t need to lead directly—he just needs you weak enough that he can guide everything from behind you.”Her words twisted in my chest because I knew they were true.“Then I’ll confront him,” I said.Amara shook her head quickly. “No. He’ll only twist it back on you, like always. If you attack him withou

Aarhea's Point of View:That night, I sat across from Jake in my room. The candles flickered low, and I leaned closer so no one outside could overhear.“Jake,” I whispered, “Roman is getting bolder. If we don’t outsmart him soon, he’ll corner us both.”Jake’s jaw tightened. “I know. But if we rush this, he’ll catch our mistakes. We need him to believe you’re doubting me.”I frowned. “Pretend I don’t trust you?”“Yes.” His voice was firm. “If Roman thinks you’re pulling away, he’ll press harder. He’ll expose himself trying to drive that wedge.”I clenched my fists. “Do you know how much it hurts to even pretend? To stand there and act like you’re dangerous to me?”Jake reached across the table, squeezing my hand. “I’d rather you hurt now than lose everything later. Trust me, Aarhea. This is the only way.”I stared at him, searching his eyes. He was steady, unshaken. Even if the whole world turned against him, he wouldn’t falter.“Alright,” I finally said. “I’ll do it. Tomorrow, in fron

Aarhea’s Point of ViewThe council room erupted the moment I named Roman.Elders muttered to one another, voices overlapping. Some looked shocked, others skeptical. Logan jumped to his feet, slamming his hand on the table.“How dare you accuse Roman, who is trying to help cleaning the Pack!” he shouted.“He’s the only one who’s been guiding this pack while you....” he continued but cut by Roman.“Sit down, Logan,” Roman cut in smoothly, though his face was pale.“Let the Alpha speak.”Logan looked stunned. “But....”“I said sit,” Roman snapped.His calm mask cracked for a brief second, and that was enough to silence him.I leaned forward, my voice firm. “You’re good at this, Roman. Whispering doubts. Planting poison. Making me look weak while you play the role of loyal advisor. But you went too far.” I said, looking at Roman, who has serious face because of what I said.Roman gave a soft laugh, though his hands were tight against the table.“Alpha Aarhea, you accuse me of treason with
