Lahat ng Kabanata ng The Alpha With The Kiss Of Death: Kabanata 151 - Kabanata 160

Alpha Randall breezed into his chamber like a leaf in winter. His head felt light. He was almost choking on his own consequences.His gaze rested on the sleeping form of Reyana, and guilt threatened to strangle him. He watched how she slept peacefully, and it made his heart ache so much that it was going to rip out of his chest.He knew he had attacked packs before. He'd killed a lot of wolves. Rendered many homeless, too. He has done a lot of despicable things. But this...? This very one shattered him.He had taken away her life... Everything she held so dear. And he still had the audacity to mistreat her? What a monster he was.He couldn't begin to imagine what she must have gone through all along.Randall took slow steps toward the bed. He lowered himself beside the bed, the familiar scent of roses and sweet vanilla wafting from Reyana's sleep-tousled hair.The corner of his eye stung with unshed tears as he stared at her innocent face. He watched her chest rise and fall with each

Klara watched him, her heart clenching at the sight of his broad shoulders slumping under the sudden burden, "Alpha Rufus sent a message to you," She said after a moment of silence. She had given him enough time to think about all she had just said. "We told the messenger that you were indisposed.""Alpha Rufus?" Randall's heart gave a small thud.Had he decided to go to war with him because of the death of his daughter? The thought brought a surge of hurt, sharper than any physical wound. He never knew their relationship would turn this sour."Yes," Klara replied softly, "He claims Azura's innocence." She broke the news.Randall felt a slight relief wash over him, but another wave of concern quickly replaced it. "How is she innocent? We found the poison in her possession.""Yes. Planted, most likely, by the true culprit." she replied, " Azura claims someone else poisoned your wine at the coronation, and she suspects that the same hand that poisoned your hand must have struck down Nam

"You might also be wrong." Aldric quickly countered. "The strange happenings in the pack should make us know that this could be a new illness or punishment from the Goddess or something.""The chances are very slim. I can tell dark magic from a punishment," Klara restored."Let's not leave anything to chance. We need to investigate." Randall spoke, "Klara, do all you can to get to the root of it all. I want to know what truly happened to Merikh." he instructed.There was a brief silence. Klara and Randall glanced at each other. She gave him a slight nod to go ahead and speak."Something else happened this morning," Randall broke the silence."Something else?" Kellan chuckled in frustration, "The Goddess must be having the time of her life, relishing in the events taking place here in our pack," he paced around, his tall frame looking stressed already."What happened, Alpha?" Reyana probed him to speak."Shota has escaped," he broke the news in one breath.The revelation hit everyone l

"Here. I got it," Randall said to Klara, handing her a small vial."Thank you." she couldn't begin to express how grateful she was.Randall nodded, about taking his leave when she called him back."Alpha?"He hummed a reply from his throat before turning to meet her gaze."What do we do? Now that Shota is gone and the pack is in an unrest?""I don't know, Klara. I just need to clear my head.""There is something you need to know. Now that you are convinced that Visha isn't the chosen one...""Klara, I never said I am convinced. Like I said before, what if we are wrong and these are just part of the enemy's plan to make her seem like bad luck?""I thought you had decided to start using your head instead of your heart. What went wrong?" She asked with furrowed brows."Look... I am truly exhausted. Mentally. Physically." He so desperately wanted to believe Visha wasn't the cause of their problems."Alpha Randall. Reyana was here last night. There is so much you need to know, or else you

"Reyana. I asked you. You told me you hadn't seen him in a long time!" Klara almost yelled. Her patience had worn out.Randall scoffed, "Hold on. What are you both saying?" he stood up from the stool where he sat. "You've been seeing Rashka in your dreams?" He asked Reyana before turning to Klara, "And you knew?" His disappointment had gotten to its peak.Klara knew how hurt he might feel, "Randall, you weren't giving any of us listening ears. We tried to get you on our side...""I mustn't be on your side to know this! You should have just said something! Klara! Reyana! Oh, Goddess! I am doomed!" He ran his fingers through his hair, which was already damp with sweat."We are sorry. But this is your fault, as much as you blame us for it. The shackle that blinded your eyes just fell off, letting you reason properly. That's why you think you would have listened if we had brought this up earlier. But the truth is, you wouldn't have listened, Randall." Klara explained in a calm tone."No!
