Chapter 162-|| CLARA'S POV||I had spent the days and nights preceding this one by myself, lost in thought, an incessant whirlpool of confusion, anger, and deep regret. Years had gone by since I had met Alberto for the first time, and yet I couldn't help but feel him moving further away every day. The healer girl was the only one who had actually understood. When I met her for the first time, she was a stranger—a girl who'd shared my agony, someone who'd experienced the same bitter destiny. She'd told me about my abilities, about what I could be if I would seize them. But she'd warned me—warned me of the consequences, of how it might spiral out of control. She'd been right, of course. But I had lost control long before today. I had nothing to lose anymore. I had already made up my mind.The power that had coursed through me wasn't just my ability; it was my weapon, my shield against the world. I'd learned to control it, to bend brains to my will. It was dangerous, yes. But it was th

|| CLARA’S POV ||Five years ago, I had been nothing but a bargaining chip, a whispered threat, a secret hidden behind the strength of men who thought they owned me. Five years ago, I had watched Mikhail’s pack tear itself apart while I smiled sweetly and pretended to be small.Now, they bowed to me.I stood at the head of the grand meeting hall, my fingers trailing lightly along the smooth oak table that Mikhail once slammed his fists upon to silence dissent. Tonight, he stood behind me, silent as a grave, eyes vacant and waiting for my command. My hypnotic hold on him was more than just power—it was my triumph. I had twisted the Alpha into my loyal hound.The pack had gathered, their eyes flicking between Mikhail and me, their confusion a living thing that hung in the air like fog. They had come expecting him. They left remembering me.I could almost taste their disbelief. It tasted like victory.When I spoke, my voice coiled around the room—soft, yet impossible to ignore. I laid ou

Chapter 166|| Elinda's POV ||I pushed the apartment door shut behind us, tugging Elias along by the arm. He didn't resist, but the air around us hummed with tension. My heart still pounded from what I'd witnessed. People had been looking. Whispering. His eyes had changed—twice. The flash of Alpha gold, burning like wildfire where it had no right to be."What the hell was that, Elias?" I spat, spinning to face him.He twisted his arm free, his jaw clenched, that same wild glint burning behind his irises. "They were bothering Cora. I didn't do anything wrong.""You didn't—" I nearly choked on the words. "You used Alpha power. On humans. In front of everyone!""It wasn't like that! I just… I felt it. I couldn't stop it."I stared at him, my breath catching in my throat. His pupils dilated, and for a brief moment, his eyes shone that strange golden color again. Then just as quickly, they normalized. My chest tightened.Twice. That was the third time today."Elias… " I whispered, my voic

Chapter 168 || CLARA'S POV ||I shoved the door open.There he was.Alberto Sinclair. Alpha of the Central Territory. He who once swore to protect me from all things, even him.He looked up at me, taken aback at first, then contained. His silver eyes held that same weightiness. But not me. I caught a flicker of something else there. Guilt? Shock? Perhaps even remorse. It was gone before it had a chance to form."Clara." He stood, smoothing his jacket as if he was going into combat. "Didn't expect to see you.""Clearly." I pushed inside, shutting the door behind me. "You've been busy. Stealing my shipments with your men? You might have at least had the respect to send a notification."He waved toward the chair in front of his desk. "Sit.""I didn't come to sit."He breathed but didn't push. He leaned against the lip of his desk, arms crossed. "Your last three tracks were abducted. We found illegal weapons.""They weren't mine.""They were hidden under the bolts of cloth bound for the

Chapter 170|| ALBERTO's POV ||I stood by the council hall window.My head was heavy with the tension from the last week, but peace never lingered for long within this damned kingdom. Before it was too late, I heard mad foot stamping outside the door before the guards flung it open.Catherine flung herself into the room without waiting for him to invite her in. "She's gone mad, Alberto!" she hissed, pacing in front of me with her fists balled up at her sides. "Clara threatened my mom. She came to our house. Said we were covering something!"I did not accept it initially. I watched her face instead. "Just. seemed?" I said carelessly, folding my arms."Yes!" Catherine burst out, then crossed her eyes and said, "I insist that she be punished. This sort of thing cannot be tolerated, even from your. favorite."The way she said "favorite" did not escape me. "Did she hurt anyone?" I asked."No," she answered after a moment, "but threatening to hurt Luna's mother is more than enough, don't
