Chapter 71SERAPHINAThe moaning grew louder. My feet would not move. I stood frozen in the corridor, listening to another woman's pleasure echo from Leone's bedroom. The same man who had brutalised me last night. The same man whose child I carried.My chest tightened. Anger surged through me, hot and sharp. How dare he? How dare he use me like that and then—"Seraphina." Cassian's voice cut through my thoughts. His hand tightened on my arm. "Do not do this to yourself.""I just want to see," I whispered. My voice sounded strange, distant. "I just want to see who she is.""No, you do not.""Yes, I do."I took a step towards Leone's door. Cassian pulled me back."Seraphina, stop." His tone was firm now. "What good will it do? What will you gain from seeing her?""I—" My voice broke. I did not know what I wanted. To confront him? To scream at him? To make him feel even a fraction of what I felt?"Listen to me." Cassian turned me to face him. His eyes were serious. "What matters right n

Chapter 73LEONEI watched her leave. She did not run or slam the door. She just walked out quietly, like she always did. That silence of hers grated on my nerves more than any screaming match ever could.She should have fought back or even argued. Instead, she just sat there with that blank expression, answering in monosyllables, refusing to engage.Pathetic.My hand tightened around my wine glass. The urge to follow her, to make her react, surged through me. I could go to her room right now and show her again what happened when she disrespected me and refused to eat.But I had already had my fill of her. The memory of last night was still fresh. Her body beneath mine, yielding whether she wanted to or not. That should have satisfied me. Should have made me feel something other than this constant irritation.It did not.A maid hovered near the doorway, waiting to clear the table. I caught her eye."You."She jumped. "Yes, Alpha?""Tomorrow morning, do not serve breakfast to Seraph

Chapter 75LEONEA day had passed since Reginald's arrival. He had settled into the east wing without issue, bringing his usual chaos of designer luggage and expensive cologne. The servants had been running around all morning making sure everything was to his liking.Now we sat in my study, glasses of whisky between us. Afternoon light filtered through the windows, casting long shadows across the mahogany desk. I had been discussing pack business for the past twenty minutes. Border security. Supply chain management. The usual administrative matters that came with running a territory.Reginald sat across from me, one leg crossed over the other, his fingers drumming against the armrest. His eyes kept wandering to the window, to the ceiling, to anywhere but me.He was bored.I should have expected it. My twin had never cared for the mundane details of leadership. He preferred the thrill, the danger, the power plays. The daily grind of actually running things had always fallen to me.

Chapter 77SERAPHINA'SI tried to move past him. I tried to squeeze by without touching him. But Reginald shifted, blocking my path."Where are you going in such a hurry?""Away from you.""But we were just getting reacquainted.""Movhe e, Reginald.""Not until we finish our conversation.""We have nothing to talk about."His hand shot out, gripping my wrist. Not hard enough to hurt, but firm enough to keep me in place. "I think we have plenty to talk about.""Let go of me.""In a minute. First, I want to know—""Is there a problem here?"We both turned. Cassian stood at the end of the corridor, his healer's bag in hand. His expression was calm, but his eyes were sharp..Relief flooded through me so suddenly I nearly sobbed."No problem." Reginald's tone was cold. "Just catching up with my sister-in-law.""It is time for Seraphina's exercises and treatment." Cassian walked towards us, his pace unhurried but purposeful. "She is already late.""I am sure it can wait.""Actually, it cann

Chapter 79LEONESleep would not come after my sex escapades. I had tried for hours lying in bed, staring at the ceiling, willing my mind to shut down. But it refused.Every time I closed my eyes, I saw her face. Seraphina's face when she had overheard me earlier. That look of devastation and broken expression.I should not care. I did not care.But the image would not leave me alone.Finally, I gave up. I threw off the covers and dressed, pulling on trousers and a shirt. The palace was silent at this hour. Most of the servants had retired. Even the guards were sparse, stationed only at key locations.I wandered through the corridors, my footsteps echoing in the emptiness. The cool night air drifted through open windows, carrying the scent of the gardens.I turned a corner and stopped. Someone else was awake. A figure paced near the entrance hall, back and forth, agitated movements in the dim candlelight.Reginald.I approached quietly, watching him. His hair was dishevelled. His shi
