Semua Bab Trapped In The Alpha's Shadow: Bab 91 - Bab 100

KaiMay wept, the memory cutting through her like a blade, the pain raw and unbearable. Her voice trembled as she forced herself to speak.“All they had to do was give her time,” she whispered, her words choked with tears. “If they had just given her time to calm down, none of it would have happened. She would’ve come back to herself. It wouldn’t have happened again.”Her shoulders shook as the flood of emotion overtook her. “But they didn’t.”I remained silent, letting her work through it at her own pace.“They fought through the compulsion,” she continued, her tone growing sharper, tinged with bitterness. “They fought her that night, refused to stop. Kevin… Kevin gave his life to protect her. He stood by her side until the very end, defending his mate. It was… it was horrible.”May’s voice cracked as she recounted the tragedy, her gaze distant, as if she were reliving it in vivid detail.“The moment he died, everything changed. The effect of the tea had worn off by then, and she fin

Kai “That night…” May began, her voice barely audible, weighed down with grief and hesitation. “Families came to check the baby, to see for themselves if she was truly gone.” She spoke with a wariness that hinted at the pain these memories carried, her words slow and deliberate. “She was blue in her cot, unmoving. They were satisfied. They believed she was dead, and so they left.” May’s hands trembled slightly as she clasped them in her lap. “I was given the duty of burying her,” she said, her tone thick with sorrow. “Emmanuel Westwood didn’t take it well. He couldn’t even bear to look at her. He would have protected his granddaughter if there had been any hope, but to him… she was gone.” She paused, taking a shaky breath before continuing. “Austin refused to touch the… the body. He was devastated. So, Emmanuel tasked me with the burial. It fell to me to lay her to rest.” Her voice cracked, and she wiped at her eyes, the tears falling freely now. “She was such an innocent baby. S

Adasha May sighed deeply, the sound heavy with unspoken thoughts. I could tell she had something important to say, so I stayed silent, giving her the space she needed to speak. I knew her well enough by now to understand that if I pushed, she might retreat into herself. After what felt like an eternity, she finally broke the silence. “I need to discuss something with you, Miss,” she said, her voice tinged with urgency. Her words immediately grabbed my attention, but it was what followed that made my stomach twist uneasily. “In fact, this is the only reason I’m glad to be back,” she continued, her tone edged with resignation. “Even though I know… the situation is temporary. I might be arrested again.” My chest tightened at her words. She had piqued my curiosity, yes, but she’d also sparked a flicker of worry. May had always been kind to me, but she had never crossed the line into something personal. Her manner had always been one of quiet professionalism, her kindness warm but

Kai“What would you do if he decided to surrender, Kai?” Darius asked, his voice steady, probing. We had just checked into the hotel suite. I met his gaze, unsure of where he was going with this.“If he chooses to relinquish, what then? You know as well as I do, it’s a crime to go after his life once he surrenders. But that look in your eyes every time his name comes up—it's pure hatred. Murder.” His words hung in the air like a challenge, forcing me to confront the truth. He wasn’t wrong.The rage inside me felt like a living thing, twisting and coiling every time I thought of Randy. Every time I thought of the marks he left on Adasha.“He marked her in the most painful way,” I said, my voice low, raw. The weight of those words was suffocating. Every scar, every tear she had shed, was etched into my mind. Randy hadn’t just hurt her physically; he’d carved his cruelty into her very soul.Darius stepped closer, placing a firm hand on my shoulder.“And you will heal her heart, Kai,” he

Kai"Thank you, Alpha Bouras, for receiving us on such short notice," Abraham continued, his tone measured but with a weight that demanded attention. "I won’t waste time getting to the matter at hand.There are two issues we need to address: the original issue that brought us here and a new one that arose two days ago."He paused for a moment, letting the room settle into silence before continuing. "The original issue is one we’ve discussed quietly for some time—the fact that leadership remains concentrated among only three families.Suggestions have been made to rotate leadership among all the families to create a balance of power."Murmurs rippled through the hall immediately, discontent brewing in hushed tones. Before anyone else could speak, Draco was on his feet, his voice cutting through the noise like a blade."And have lazy, unfit alphas ruling regions in the name of equality?" Draco scoffed, his disdain clear.He leaned forward, his presence filling the room. "Leadership has
