Alpha Cormac’s POVSearching her body could give us clues if she bears unique tattoos or markings. It could give us an idea, but it could also be a dead end. Left to me, I just want her gone, but my wolf isn’t buying the idea.I had never imagined a day like this would come when me and my wolf would be in battle about picking a side. He wants to keep his mate when all I want is just to get rid of her. Keeping her would only complicate things; right now, I don’t want this to add to my headache. She was not being helpful because she was fabricating details about her identity and where she came from. I wished she could make this easier for both of us, but she’s stubborn and unwilling behind the weak facade she’s portraying just to get at my merciful side, but she got it all wrong.I’m not merciful and I was only being lenient on her because of Steel and the stupid mate bond that keeps trying to awaken a soft spot for her.A mate bond can’t be easily ignored, but the effect on me isn’t m

Alpha Cormac’s POVSitting in my office, I leaned back in my chair, staring at the map on my desk with markings of our secret warehouses, a glass of whiskey swirling idly in my hand. My mind raced as I considered my options. The shipment had to be rerouted, and there was no room for mistakes this time. Months ago, the Lycan King, Logan, and his forces had raided three of my warehouses consecutively, seizing and burning everything inside. It wasn’t just a blow to my resources. It was a direct challenge to fish me out and expose me.Going against him was pointless. I just want him out of my business. At this moment, I can't afford to get raided again. The pack elders must not find out I was using the pack fund for my personal business. I could handle them, but Logan was a different story altogether. And if he were to discover I was the owner of those warehouses, I had no doubt he'd use it to his advantage. The thought sent a shiver down my spine. I couldn't afford to have him breathin

Lyra’s POVIt's been three fucking days.Three long, excruciating days. Three days of being locked up in this room. The soft light filtering through the window in the corner of the room gave me a sense of time, though it felt more like a curse than a blessing. Each hour that passed stretched into eternity, leaving me trapped in my thoughts with no escape or attempt at it. The walls around me were suffocating, no matter how luxurious this room was compared to the dungeon.It was way better than the dungeon by all means. I had access to a small bed, bathroom and food but I was getting sick. I stared at the ceiling, my mind wandering to Calantha. Was she safe? Did she manage to flee after she diverted the guards attention away or had they caught her too? My stomach churned at the thought of her being tortured or worse. She had been my only true companion, my confidante, and my protector when no one else had cared. She could only do little when I'm being punished or abused but she

Lyra’s POV “Tell me what you want.” Alpha Cormac’s words hung in the air like a storm cloud, heavy and threatening to burst. I sat frozen in my chair, trying to understand the sudden shift in his behavior towards me. Since have been brought to this pack, he had been nothing but cold and calculating. Threatening to torture me, locking me away like a criminal. And now, here he was, sitting across from me, his piercing gaze softening just enough to make me question whether this was the same man I met days back. What brought about the change?“It could be the mate bond.” Nyx’s voice echoed in my head.Being so close to him and sitting across, I couldn't help but feel an intense urge to be closer. I couldn't give in to the mate bond. My heart pounded in my chest. I could smell his scent and it was driving both I and Nyx crazy.“Could I trust him?” I asked Nyx“What is the worst thing that could happen?” She answered me.“Taking me back to my pack,” I snapped back at Nyx in my head, “You

Lyra’s POV My breath hitched when I saw Alpha Cormac step inside. His presence filled the room instantly, commanding attention even in silence. I sat up straighter on the bed, unsure of what to expect and why he was here. “What are you doing here?” I blurted out in shock.Alpha Cormac’s expression remained unreadable as he stepped closer, his dark eyes meeting mine with an intensity that made my pulse quicken, but he had a warm look. His intoxicating smell filled the air, making my hormones stirred up. He didn’t answer my question right away. Instead, he walked over to the edge of the bed and, to my surprise, sat down beside me. The mattress dipped under his weight, the proximity making it impossible to ignore the pull of the mate bond between us. He turned to face me, his gaze softening and warmer than usual. “Relax, I'm not here to hurt you or do anything you don't like,” he answered.“I wanted to see if you’d made a decision,” he added. I hesitated, my fingers twisting the
