All Chapters of Destiny: The Alpha Heir: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

The transformation was now complete, but her body remained on the ground, convulsing as her paws twitched as if trying to grasp something. I lay down beside her, and it seemed to calm her. Minutes later, she reacted, showing that she had regained consciousness. A newly awakened wolf wants only one thing—to run! Unfortunately, when it was my turn, I couldn’t give that to Lisa, but I made it up to her later.Annie’s wolf clumsily rolled over, trying to get to her feet. I used my body to help steady her and walked in front of her, locking eyes with her. The glow in her gaze told me the worst had passed. From this point on, it was just a matter of making small adjustments as she got used to her new form. I wrapped both bags around my neck and walked ahead slowly, waiting for her to follow.Her paws wobbled as she took slow, uncertain steps forward. Little by little, her stride became steadier, and when I saw she was starting to find her rhythm, I picked up the pace, matching my pace to he

Saturday morning was sunny. I spent the entire morning helping my grandmother fill mini crostatas with the jams my aunt had prepared throughout the week. After lunch, I took a taxi to deliver the order to the party venue."Hey! Over here!" Annie waved at me as soon as she saw me arriving. The taxi passed by the alpha's house and stopped in front of a wall at the neighboring estate. Annie opened a large, white-painted iron gate that led onto the property, and the taxi drove in.I was surprised by the number of flowers arranged in beds along the pathway. The taxi stopped in front of a glass-walled building covered in vines climbing all the way to the roof. Annie quickly caught up to me and helped unload the order."Thanks for bringing this. Liam’s busy with other things, so he couldn’t come pick it up," Annie said, grinning as she helped me carry the boxes inside."No need to thank me—I’m happy to help. And if there’s anything else I can do, just let me know!""Everything’s pretty much

Leaving them behind, I walked straight out to the garden and sat at one of the outdoor tables. Even though I’d arrived early, I wasn’t the first one out there. A little girl was sitting alone just a few tables away. Petite and slender, she had a round face and long, dark brown hair. She wore a pretty yellow dress that fell to her knees, with floral details that gave her the innocent look of a child who couldn’t have been more than ten.From where I sat, I could see her little legs swinging as her hands busied themselves, rummaging through the food on her plate to decide what to eat next. Little by little, familiar faces from school started showing up and filling the place. I figured I’d just wait for a friendlier face before going over to say hi.Before long, the first round of snacks and drinks began making its way around the tables. I grabbed a few finger foods and, without thinking, glanced back toward the little girl, wondering how she’d managed to get so much food before everyone

Before I knew it, I was wandering aimlessly through the streets, like I’d forgotten the way home. Soon, the cluster of houses had completely vanished, and I found myself entering an open field, drawn by the sound of running water.The sting from the slap grew sharper with every step, while a wave of loneliness flooded my soul. I stopped at the edge of a stream and crouched down, scooping up some cold water and splashing it on my face. Tears streamed from my eyes as I stared at my own reflection in the water.It wasn’t perfectly clear, but I could still make out the spot where William had hit me—it was already starting to bruise. How was I supposed to hide that from my grandma?“Are you okay?” I turned toward the voice. Liam was standing a few feet away, arms crossed.“What are you doing here? How did you find me?” I asked, confused. Of all people, he was the last one I expected to come after me.“I promised Annie I’d find you and bring you back to her party.”“Liam, I’m sorry, but I’m

His words hit me harder than I expected. If it were up to Lisa, I’d already be wagging my tail for him, just hoping for a little more affection. You settle for so damn little, I snapped at her internally. "Alright. If that’s all you had to say, I’m outta here." I tried to end the conversation and walk past him again. This time, he stepped aside—but just as I passed, William grabbed my hand and held it tight. "Come with me. I want to talk some more." "I don’t want to talk to you!" I said, trying to yank my hand free as he pulled me toward his car. "It’s about my sister." Of all the things he could’ve said, that was the one that hit the mark. I really did want to know how Caroline was doing, so I stopped resisting and got into the car without a word. We sat in silence while he drove through the streets. Strangely enough, he ended up taking me to his own house. He parked in an underground garage and turned off the engine. There were other cars down there, but I couldn’t focus on the
