Chapter 131; Fear

Tristan's uncontrollable laughter reverberated through the tense room like a sudden startling thunderclap. He flung his head back, his shoulders trembling from the intensity of his laughter utterly unaware of Rylan's glaring stare. With his jaw clenched, Rylan gazed at Tristan in astonishment as though his friend had suddenly developed hideous horns on his head. Before Tristan could control the laughter it seemed to go on for a few excruciating seconds. With his chest heaving, he gasped for air and wiped tears from the corners of his eyes with a trembling hand leaving his cheeks with faint wet streaks. “ You can't be serious.” His voice was still gasping for air and tinged with faint laughter. “You believe that all of the events that have occurred were false?” Rylan let out a sigh that seemed to weigh down the whole room because he was so full of frustration. “You know what? Forget it.” His sudden change was an obvious indication that he was finished with the pointless discussion

Chapter 132; Anxiety

Karina straightened her posture, her eyes wide with interest and worry. Leaning forward she stared at her roommate. “ Talk to me Zara,” she urged in a low, eager voice. “What did you hear? You look like you've seen a ghost!”Zara held back her response, her face white. To ensure that the door clicked securely into place she swiftly reached behind her and pushed it shut. The sudden tension was increased by the gentle thud that reverberated throughout the tiny space. Then, as though terrified of being overheard even through the closed door, she moved cautiously and huskily toward Karina. With her gaze darting around the room as though searching for unnoticed listeners she reduced her voice to a whisper. Zara said in a barely audible voice. “ Karina, I know this isn't right. I couldn't help it but it's really inappropriate.” She stopped and took a trembling breath. “You know I was cleaning the Alpha's private chamber when I heard him. They were unaware of my presence while he was speak

Chapter 133; A Close Catch

Alpha Rylan sat motionless in the spacious silent room. Tall windows in the opulent room let in the last of the evening sun. Every sound was muffled by the thick plush carpets covering the floor. His eyes were fixed on the door while he sat upright in a large cozy chair. Like a hunter waiting for his prey, he was patiently waiting for the maids to enter the room. He needed them all here to help him with a very important task. After some silence the door opened and the head maid approached him. She was a serious woman. Her footsteps on the plush carpet were nearly silent. She stopped when she got to him and bowed her head demonstrating her respect for the Alpha. “Good evening Alpha Rylan,” she said in a hardly audible voice. “The maids will be with you soon.”Rylan just nodded and his expression was calm. With a deep and steady voice, he answered. “ Alright.” Although he remained silent there was a clear purpose in his eyes. It made sense to the head maid. Before standing close to t

Chapter 134; Trapped

He left a stifling silence behind him that lasted only a few brief seconds before the heavy door clicked shut behind him. Then as if a dam had broken, a flood of low murmurs and whispers erupted across the spacious room. Instead of remaining motionless, the maids moved and gathered together their voices rising in a frantic hum. With their newly found freedom, the air practically buzzed with unspoken rumors and sighs of relief. As their stiff postures loosened and their shoulders slumped in collective exhaustion, each maid appeared to have a pressing opinion or a glance that spoke volumes. The formal ambiance vanished, giving way to a commotion like that of a busy marketplace, with hushed conversations filling the entire large room. Karina pressed her back against the cool stone wall and pushed a strand of defiant hair out of her eyes and sighed shakily with relief. Her thin body shuddered as the last of the cold that had been there seemed to go away. “That was a close one,” she

Chapter 135; Cornered

Karina's whole being seemed consumed by a pure unadulterated fear that caused her eyes to widen. Every nerve in her tingled with fear. As a cold icy shiver that was both sharp and unwanted, snaked its way down her spine. Her forehead was speckled with cold clammy beads of sweat that traced tiny paths down her temples.A tiny, muffled sound, a desperate whimper trapped behind the gag, came from her. Her eyes, which were normally bright, now had a pleading glint that reflected the dim room light. With a slow ruthless smile on his lips, the man in the room observed her. As a sign of eagerness and evil gratification, he rubbed his hands together. His dark predatory eyes glistened with malevolent laughter as he watched the tears slowly but surely fall down Karina's cheeks, leaving her skin moisturized. He relished her fear, allowing it to permeate the stifling quiet of the space. Then, after a chilling consideration, he started to move. His deliberate slow movements reverberated through

Chapter 136; Vulcan's Declaration

Alpha Rylan wandered through the darkened halls of the pack house.A tornado of ideas was racing through his head. With his eyes focused directly ahead, he saw only the tangled strands of his current situation and hardly noticed the courteous bows and whispered greetings from the servants he passed. He had been on the verge of learning the identity of the maid who had given a false statement against Selene. When he was abruptly called to meet Elder Vulcan. He believed that although he had the truth at his fingertips, it had been taken from him and replaced by a pressing unspoken agenda. What could Vulcan possibly desire? The elder’s visits were never informal; they were always charged with a purpose that frequently left a sour aftertaste. He arrived at his private chamber’s heavy wooden door. The old wood groaned softly in protest as he slowly pushed it open. Only the gentle flicker of candlelight broke the dense silence that pervaded the interior. Seated on a chair with a high bac

Chapter 137; In Shock

At last, Zara concluded her discussion with one of the maids, even though most of them were still scattered around the spacious room where they had all been called earlier. She still felt lonely.She kept thinking about how Karina had left in such a hurry earlier. Almost like she was running from something. Even for Zara, it had been strange. Zara rubbed her eyes, feeling the heavy pull of sleep, and let out a soft yawn. She just wanted to go to sleep and forget what had happened today. Then hunger emerged as a new feeling. She was reminded that she hadn't eaten anything since the morning by a deep gnawing emptiness in her stomach. They should have had their evening meals ready by now, possibly even in their room waiting for them. In an obvious protest against its current state, her stomach rumbled loudly. Zara bid the other maid farewell with a gentle smile and a courteous nod. She turned and sauntered back to the room where she and Karina shared. Her heavy footsteps were evidence

Chapter 138; The Doctor's Call

Through the grand pack house, Zara’s shrill screams reverberated. A terrifying sound that conveyed sheer terror. The room's sturdy wooden door slammed open as her sobs reached their climax. With her eyes blazing with indignation, Mrs. Julieta, the head maid, strode into the room. She was a woman of formidable presence and unwavering authority. A rush of other maids trailed behind her, their expressions marked with a mix of anxiety and worry. Mrs. Julieta's voice pierced the tense silence like a sharp knife and demanded. “What’s going on here?” Her displeasure and readiness to take command were evident as she stood stiffly in the doorway, her hands firmly resting on her broad hips. Zara’s vision became blurry as tears came down her pale face quickly and thickly. Normally full and expressive, her lips now trembled uncontrollably, making it impossible for her to speak clearly. She pointed at the bed where Karina lay motionless and a ghostly figure against the white sheets with a sha

Chapter 139; Unexpected News

The doctor let out a long sigh. The exhalation was long and drawn out, a heavy release of air that seemed to lift the oppressive weight of the rooms’ collective anxiety.After staring at the motionless body on the bed, he finally raised his head to look into the terrified expectant eyes of those surrounding him. “She is not dead,” he declared in a steady voice.In the quiet room, a sharp, sudden, collective gasp tore through. A sound that came from the maids who had been holding their breath for what seemed like an eternity. It was the result of pure relief. Zara, who had been tense with fear and coiled like a spring, suddenly felt weak and lightheaded. She swayed slightly as her knees threatened to give way, and her hand automatically reached out to support her against the bed’s rough wooden frame. The maids who had been huddled close to the doorway with pale terrified faces suddenly began to move frantically. They embraced themselves. Some swaying softly and others covering their

Chapter 140; Rage

His tall frame blocked the doorway as his gaze swept through the room filled with some maids."I ask again what is the whole noise for? You all are supposed to be in your rooms at this time not to create chaos in the pack house.”The head maid, Mrs. Julieta walked towards Tristan in gentle steps. Her heartbeat increased as she stepped forward. "Sir, we heard her roommate screaming so we rushed to see what happened," she explained in a shaky voice.She looked dreadful as she feared what the Alpha might do to her. She might be blamed for it. After all, she is the head maid and nothing is expected to happen without her notice.An image of Karina flashed in her mind. Earlier today, the young girl was full of life and showed no signs of any illness.What really happened to her? She could remember seeing her with the other maids. Tristan walked into the room, his eyes swept through the faces staring at him. And the doctor was busy checking someone on the bed. Which drew his attention. "Why
