Alpha Francis - POV "It seems our plan has worked," Caroline said with a smile as she led Kai to the magic room where Meena awaited the ritual. "Get dressed and take your family out of the pack as per our deal." Caroline nodded, her expression filled with grief as she glanced at Kai. Guilt overwhelmed her for tricking him, but she had no choice. She had agreed to act to lure Kai in, as her father had made deals with rogue wolves who attempted to attack me yesterday but were killed by me, revealing the truth about who paid them to assassinate me and ensure his son became Alpha instead of me.Initially, I planned to eliminate Caroline's family. However, just as I prepared for the assassination, Ana called me, informing me that her spy had discovered that Alpha Xavier and Alpha Kai were both mated to Leia. I was shocked to learn there was more than one fated mate. It was then that I realized I had to take action swiftly. Vaz and Meena assisted me in devising a plan to create a fake magi

Leia - POV Alpha Neon had not yet answered his plans to declare war on the Blackmoon pack. However, when he looked at me, it felt like he knew me. I began to wonder if I knew anything about Alpha Neon. I don't recall anything about Alpha Neon. "Leia," Sia called, snapping me out of my thoughts. I noticed Daisy following Sia as they headed toward my room. Sia seemed troubled upon hearing about Kai. Only Sia and I knew why Xavier had to make Kai go Rogue. Kai had asked Xavier to take this step for the sake of pack peace and to protect us. "Leia, can you stop zoning out?" Daisy's voice interrupted me once again. "Sorry," I whispered. "Why do you look so pale? I know you're worried about Kai," Sia said, placing her hand on my shoulder. "Kai will be fine. He is strong." "I'm still concerned about Kai's well-being, even though Xavier didn't tell you, Sia." My words confused Sia, and Daisy had a similar expression. I explained to both of them that Alpha Francis was my mate. I also menti

Leia – POV"Xavier, that woman has Ana's watch on her wrist," I slurred, my eyes meeting Xavier's. I distanced myself from his hold, and he let go of me. The warmth in my body continued to course through me. Xavier walked over to the cabinets in his office and retrieved two blue vials. He handed them to me, instructing me to drink them before I could ask what they were."What are these vials?" I questioned him, but Xavier gulped down the potion in his vial and slightly huffed. Unlike mine, his heated eyes returned to normal and remained fixated on him."Drink up. It's an antidote potion for any poison or love potion," Xavier explained. I looked at the vial in my hand and drank the bitter taste, hoping it would return my body to its normal state. Xavier patiently waited, ready to delve into the meaning behind my earlier statement."The maid could be a spy or even Ana in disguise. She was wearing a watch, and I recall her bragging about how you gifted it to her on your first anniversary

Leia – POVI found myself on a soft bed rather than a couch, my body still naked under the covers. I gulped at the sight of Xavier walking in shirtless, a breakfast tray in his hand, and a clear look of guilt crossing his calm face. As my eyes met his emerald ones, the events of last night replayed in my mind, and I remembered the warmth of his touch and how he made me feel alive. I had never experienced such emotions around any casual men I had been with."Leia, I shouldn't have marked you without your permission," Xavier confessed, shifting from foot to foot guiltily, his gaze flitting between my neck and my eyes. "Trust me, Leia, I wouldn't have marked you without your consent. My wolf took control and marked you.""I don't know what to say, Xavier, but I'm not angry for some reason. That's weird. I hate it when things or anyone tries to do things without my consent." Xavier's eyes deepened with guilt at my words, but he also studied my expression. I wasn't angry with him. I unders

Kai - POV"Beta Vaz, I was counting, and there is one missing box in the inventory," I told Beta Vaz, who glanced at me, then surveyed the surrounding boxes as though he could count them by sight. I'd used my magic to vanish one box."Why are you standing here? Where did the box go?" Vaz demanded, his voice ominous and his eyes glowing with an eerie light."I was awaiting your arrival, Beta, to inform you that the missing box appears to have been left at the storage house," I assured him. My words seemed to quell his suspicions; his intense gaze softened. He checked the inventory file, nodded his approval, and dismissed me. Feeling relief wash over me, I exited the Manor. Outside, I noticed Francis besieged by pack members and an elder questioning him. Surprisingly, he responded calmly, not inciting the pack members or elders.With a quick glance around, Francis ventured further into the pack territory. From my hidden vantage point behind the house, I watched him stealthily. He approa
