Bred by the Vortan Alphas のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 71 - チャプター 80

Melissa's POV My eyes sprang open, and a flash of amber flashed through my vision. A surge of adrenaline ran through my veins as I struggled to control myself from transforming. I thought of Jace and Brandon, and I turned my face away, blinking my eyes to calm down. My wolf growled, and I stared at the ceiling, trying to compose myself.It had been three days since Caius's engagement, and something felt off. I had been having nightmares, and the memories of the dead girl and the note written in codes haunted me. I saw her die in front of me again, and the images seemed real until I woke up. Just this morning, I had a nightmare about that afternoon at the Alpha's Penthouse.The truth was that there was something more to it. The Grand Prince and Alpha might be wrong about what happened that day. Although my memories of the afternoon stopped just as I opened the door, I was convinced that I saw something. Something might have tampered with my memories that night.I held my chest, realiz

Alpha Magnus POVI ordered my guards to let Celeste in immediately, eager to meet with the powerful witch. "Please let Celeste in right now. She is important, do not keep her waiting," I instructed.As I waited for Celeste to arrive, I couldn't believe that she had honored my invitation. Celeste was one of the greatest and most feared witches in North America, known for her extraordinary abilities and her role as a seer. She had previously been the coven leader of the witches in America, succeeding the legendary Ava, who had mysteriously disappeared.When Celeste arrived, accompanied by Lady Delilah, I smiled warmly and extended my hand for a handshake. "How have you been, Celeste?" I asked, trying to break the ice.Celeste smiled, her eyes sparkling with a hint of mystery. "I've been good, it's been a while," she replied."Everything that glitters wouldn't be hidden forever, not in the sole nor in the soul."I chuckled, intrigued by her enigmatic response. "I see that Lady Delila

Melissa's POV As we made our way through the VIP passage, the workers and people around us greeted Alpha Magnus with a quick bow. "Good morning, Alpha Magnus Vortan," they chorused, their heads bowed in respect. "It's an honor to see you, sir." I smiled, feeling a sense of pride and importance as I walked alongside him.As we approached, the workers handed my chauffeur a beautiful Ball mask, which looked even more stunning than the last time I saw it. I smiled, knowing that Alpha Magnus was indeed one of the well-known Alpha's in North America.Alpha Magnus and Grand Prince Caius pulled out their cards and accessed the elevator reserved for VIPs. We all stepped in, and the chauffeur pressed a button. The door closed, and the elevator started to move up. When the door opened, Princess Lyra and I strode out elegantly, our heels clicking on the floor.Lyra seemed full of herself, acting like she owned the world as she walked. I smiled and suggested we stick together, and after a brief

Melissa POV I stood shocked, my eyes fixed on Caius as he emerged from the darkness. I was dumbfounded, unsure of what to say or do. The man I had abandoned just moments before was the same one who had come to my rescue in this perilous moment. Caius's expression was inscrutable, but I could sense that he wanted to say something, yet held back."Thank you so much, Grand Prince," I said, my voice barely above a whisper, as I walked closer to him. He nodded curtly, his eyes avoiding mine. Instead, he stared off to the side, his voice low and rough. "You should be careful next time. You should be by the Alpha's side always. He should protect you."I felt a pang of guilt and regret, my eyes welling up with tears. "I'm sorry for the inconvenience, I'm really sorry," I said, my voice cracking with emotion. Caius's words were laced with a subtle undertone of disapproval, and I couldn't help but feel that I had let him down."Walking alone puts you in danger," he continued, his voice firm

Lyra's POVI navigated the dark hallway with caution, my anger simmering just below the surface. I didn't want to be seen, didn't want to talk to anyone. Furthermore, I just wanted to get out of there, to escape the suffocating atmosphere that seemed to be closing in on me.As I walked into the grand hall, I was greeted by the murmur of conversations and the sound of laughter.But I didn't care. I pushed through the crowds, my eyes fixed on some distant point ahead. I didn't smile, didn't greet anyone, didn't even acknowledge the people who nodded or waved at me.Likewise, I knew I was being rude, but I couldn't help it. Likewise, I was consumed by the conversation I had overheard between Caius and Melissa. The words kept replaying in my mind, and I couldn't shake off the feeling that something was off.I tried to make my way to Alpha Magnus, but I knew I would only end up making a scene if I didn't take a moment to calm down. I spotted a guard standing by the wall and walked towards
