“Yes,” Luke said, with some sort of ease. The sound of the council adjusting in their seats in a notable union, they all guessed that answer from days ago. However, hearing Luke confirming it still was hard to digest. Ophelia carefully watched her brother, he still looked tired since he walked in. It was hard to say if it had gotten worse but, eventually, it would get worse. Ophelia could only imagine the questions Everett had yet to ask. Alpha Everett might be the one asking the questions, but they were agreed upon by the council, that they won’t have mercy. Even if Luke is her brother. “Were you involved in the arson of the Crescents in one way or another?” Everett asked again, his tone was calm as he already knew the answer, as well as the entire council. “No,

The next hour or so went faster than what Ophelia could perceive. The world around her felt like a distant background the moment her brother collapsed. She thought she lost him as well. Her body refused to slow down. Without much thought, she rushed Luke to the infirmary with Noah. She felt him next to her when her eyes failed to see him.The brief moments when their shoulders brushed together ever so slightly kept her attached to the thin string of reality she had. It all went too fast. Luke was still sweating by the time they got him to Sarah in the infirmary. The nurse was shocked to see him in this state, but she was quick to react. Luke was unconscious but Ophelia could see from the frown on his face that he was still in pain. “What happened?!” Sarah said, her hands working on taking Luke’s vitals. “I-I don’t know,” Ophelia stuttered, searching for words. Her eyes followed Sarah’s hands to focus her mind. “He was okay, I think. Then he just collapsed and grabbed his head.""Is

“Ophelia is dead.”At that moment, Ophelia’s body went cold. Was it the breeze that blew through the window or was it the effect of her brother's words? She wasn’t sure. Noah stood as stunned as her. When his eyes met Luke, they were confused, as if this was their first encounter.“Luke you–,” Ophelia paused, gathering her thoughts. “You don’t remember?”“I…” Luke started, his eyes scanning the unfamiliar room in a dream-like gaze. “I don’t know what you are talking about, and who are you?” He stressed his last words out, his eyes narrowed in confusion. Everything about the woman by his side was familiar. She resembled him like a twin, like his sister. The platinum hair, violet eyes, her pale skin. It all screamed to him that it was his sister, yet, it was impossible. Ophelia was dead. In the back of his mind, the last memory he had when he was still sane was the loss of his sister. The night of the arson was the only truth he knew. Ophelia noticed that something was off, just like

“We will make a play.”Under different circumstances, Ophelia would take Noah’s words as a joke or a mockery. But considering the situation and the stern expression on his face, it was impossible to rule the statement as mere mockery. Noah was already coming up with a plan to shock them all. That has been his way all along. Even when they spared, Noah always had tricks up his sleeves. He never used it on her, that was why she always won. However, now there was no need to hold back. This was a full-on attack. Noah was going to use every trick up his sleeves and hope they all worked in their favor. “Play as in…act?” Lord Everett questioned, cutting the other Alphas chattering.Noah didn’t reply and glanced over in Enzo’s direction. Ophelia followed his gaze and understood his concern. He didn’t want to speak before a traitor. Yes, Enzo had his reasons. But it was not enough reason to trust him yet. “I’ll excuse myself,” Enzo said, getting to his feet. “I would like to be escorted to

For the day Ophelia chose to wear a high-neck chiffon blouse with long sleeves. All for the sake of hiding what she and Noah did all night long. She stood in front of the mirror struggling with the button behind her neck. Noah was by the bed, rolling up the sleeves of his button-up shirt from the day before, he decided to drop by his chambers later to change it. When turned around, he finally noticed her struggling. He covered the distance between them in long strides before he reached out to do it for her, gently brushing her platinum hair aside. Ophelia watched him as he approached her in the mirror, with every step he took toward her, her heart skipped a beat. Her eyes lingered on him as he focused on the work at hand.Seeing him after everything that happened set butterflies loose in her stomach. She kept going back to the passionate night they spent. And morning. The way their skin touched. The warmth that engulfed her through the night. Despite the summer heat, it felt as if Noa
