chapter 201

The Sight of DestructionRoman's POV I jolted awake the next morning, as if I was shocked by some high voltage of electricity, as my mind was already racing with the day ahead. I looked around hoping I did not oversleep, but the dim light of dawn coming through the curtains made it sure it was still early.I had slept for barely 5 hours after taking care of our babies till 11am and Rose came to take over their nursing. I needed to see them, hold them because I don't know if it could be my last. The chaos lately was becoming too much and persistent that I fear I might go down the drain soon. I shook my head to disrupt the thought as I quickly showered and dressed. My movements were automatic, muscle memory taking over as I performed the familiar acts of bathing and dressing while my thoughts swirled with plans and possibilities.Then I made my way to Hayley and our kids, and I couldn't help but feel a pang of guilt. These quiet morning moments were becoming rare, and I cherished th

chapter 202

Pursuit in the Shadows Roman's POV The sight of my safehouse hit me like a physical blow. Where once stood a fortress of safety, now lay a clustered wreckage of metal and concrete. Scattered everywhere was debris, a grim reminder of the destruction that had occurred. "Oh Lord," Caspian breathed beside me, his face pale. I couldn't speak. The devastation before us was beyond words. As I stepped out of the car, I looked around in disdain. "We need to be careful," I finally managed to warn Caspian as he started walking into the debris, and my voice was hoarse. "There could still be unstable areas that'll fall." I reminded him. Caspian nodded, already pulling out his phone. "I'm calling in our forensics team. We need to study everything. Maybe retrieve signs of who the bomber is." He said wisely. As we cautiously approached the ruins, my mind raced. Who could have done this? Who had the resources, the audacity, to attack us so boldly? "Roman," Caspian called, crouching nea

chapter 203

The Chase and Confrontation Roman's POV My heart pounded as I pursued the fleeing werewolves into the dense forest. In no time, I shifted into my Lycan form giving me enhanced strength and speed. The scent of their fear filled my nostrils and I could smell six distinct individuals ahead of me, their terror evident in the air as they fled away for their lives. Anger surged through me, fueling my pursuit. These were the spies who had been following us, no doubt trying to discover the location of the dungeon where we held the Lunas. With a burst of speed, I launched myself forward, jumping and crashing into one of the fleeing figures. We tumbled to the bush in a tangle of limbs and fur. The others scattered into the dense foliage, and I was only able to catch one, but one was enough to provide answers. As I subdued him and we panted, I heard Caspian's footsteps approaching as he caught up to us, panting heavily from running too. "Good catch," Caspian said, quickly moving

chapter 204

Exhaustion and Refuge Roman's POV The sun was beginning to set down below the horizon, turning the sky in that beauty of the sunset as Caspian and I pulled up to the hospital where Leighton and his bride were. My bones ached with a deep, penetrating fatigue that seemed to seep into every fiber of my being. The event of the day pressed down on me like a physical force, but I stubbornly pushed it aside. There was still remaining work to be done, people to check on, before calling it a day. We parked our car, leaving Max in it and into the hospital. Being greeted by antiseptics as we walked through the sterile corridors of the hospital. The faint sound of beeping of machines and the hushed voices of medical staff created a somber atmosphere that did little to lift my spirits. We finally reached Leighton's bride's room, and the sight that greeted us was almost heartbreaking. Leighton was hunched over his bride's bed, his usually impeccable appearance now disheveled and hagga

chapter 205

Interrogation and UncertaintyRoman's POVThe persistent knock on my door pulled me from the depths of a dreamless sleep. I opened my eyes and for a moment, I looked around, disoriented, my mind struggling to piece together where I was. The unfamiliar surroundings slowly came into focus as I remembered, we were at Caspian's secret place."Come in," I called out, my voice still rough with sleep.Caspian's head poked through the door, a small smile on his face. "Morning, sleeping beauty. Thought you might want some breakfast." He teased in his usual playful manner.I groaned, pushing myself up to a sitting position. "What time is it?" I demanded, seeing the room already bright."Just past 8 AM," Caspian replied, stepping fully into the room with a tray of food. "You needed the rest. So I didn't disturb you." He informed me.I nodded, rubbing my eyes. "Yeah, I guess I did. Thanks for letting me sleep in. I feel freshened up, to say the least." I confessed, stretching my limbs.Caspian s

chapter 206

Resistance and RevelationsRoman's POVI rubbed my tired eyes, squinting at the screens before me. Hours of poring over Scarlett's recordings had yielded nothing substantial, and frustration gnawed at me. With a heavy sigh, I pushed back from the desk, my chair scraping against the floor.As the clock struck noon, I decided it was time for a break. My stomach growled, reminding me that I hadn't eaten since 8am. I stretched, feeling the satisfying pop of my joints, and made my way to Caspian's room.I found him lounging on his bed, phone pressed to his ear, a dopey smile plastered across his face. I leaned against the doorframe, watching him with amusement. It was probably Bree on the other end, judging by the way his eyes lit up."Alright, babe. I'll call you later," Caspian said, his voice uncharacteristically soft. He ended the call and looked up at me, his expression morphing into something more businesslike. "Food should be here shortly." He informed me, as if knowing I came s

chapter 207

Faces in the Ashes Roman's POV The car's engine hummed silently beneath our feet as Caspian and I drove away from the meeting hall. My mind was still reeling from the confrontation with the alphas. Their resistance, their doubt, it all left a bitter taste in my mouth. I gazed out the window, watching the city lights blur past, when my phone suddenly buzzed in my pocket. I fished it out, frowning at the unknown number. "Roman speaking," I answered, my voice gruff with fatigue. "Sir, this is Dr. Elias from the forensic team," came a crisp voice from the other end. "We've got some results from the bombing site that you might want to see for yourself." He stated, matter of factly. My heartbeat quickened. "What have you found?" I asked, unable to be patient from hearing the news any longer. "Well, I don't know how to explain this on the phone. I think you should come see it for yourself now," Dr. Elias replied. I ended the call and turned to Caspian. "Change of plans. We

chapter 208

Confrontation at the Warehouse Roman's POV The sharp ringing tone of my phone awakened me from sleep, as if I was poured some cold water. I searched for it even before opening my eyes, and when I found it, I squinted at the bright screen to know the caller. Rose's name flashed, and a mix of worry and warmth washed over me instantly. "Hey," I answered, my voice still rough with sleep. "Roman," Rose's voice came through, a blend of relief and frustration. "I've been waiting for you to call back but you haven't. Is everything okay?" She asked in her usual worrisome manner. I sat up, rubbing my eyes. "I'm sorry, Rose. Things have been... demanding. I should have called." I apologized. "It's alright," she said softly. "How's it going there? Any progress?" She asked curiously. I leaned back against the headboard, trying to organize my thoughts. "Leighton's bride is feeling better, thankfully. The Lunas are still in custody, and we had a meeting with their alphas yesterday. T

chapter 209

Suspicions And Secrets Roman's POV The familiar structure of the tracker checking team's building appeared before us as we pulled into the parking lot. I let out a heavy sigh, running a hand through my hair. "Looks like we're becoming regulars here lately," I muttered to Caspian as we stepped out of the car, and I couldn't decide if the fact was a good thing or not. The cool evening air hit my face, which was an opposite to the stuffy interior of the vehicle where we'd been transporting our captives. Six men, all potential threats, all needing to be checked before we could risk taking them to our safe location. It was going to be a long night. We've been driving all day, from the Southern part of the town to back here, uptown. As we entered the building, the receptionist recognized us immediately. Her eyes widened slightly, but she maintained her professional demeanor. "Good evening, Your Majesty. How can we assist you today?" She asked us, professionally. I approach

chapter 210

A Family Suspect Roman's POV The interrogation room felt suffocating as I sat down to face each captive, one by one. Caspian stood silently in the corner, his presence a reassuring constant in this mess. "Tell me about your contractor," I demanded of the first man, my voice low and dangerous. He shook his head, fear evident in his eyes. "I-I never saw her. Only our team leader did." He stammered. That was what Max told me too. So he wasn't lying after all. I growled in frustration, dismissing him and calling for the next. This pattern repeated until finally, the team leader sat before me. The first five men were frustratingly unhelpful because they hadn't seen their contractor and I only want to hear more about her. His eyes darted nervously around the room, avoiding my gaze. "You saw her," I demanded, leaning across the table. "Describe her. And I mean every detail you can remember." I growled, menacingly. The man swallowed hard, his eyes darting nervously between C
