ALPHA JEFFREY The echo of the gunshot still burned in my ears when I stepped out from behind the truck. The air reeked of smoke and gasoline. Charlotte was on the ground, trembling, her palms pressed against the dirt, hair falling into her face. The headlights from my convoy bathed her in cold light.“Take another shot,” I said quietly, my voice flat, almost too calm. The men hesitated. They’d never seen me like this still, this contained. I didn’t repeat myself, but the weight in my tone made them obey.The next bullet struck the dirt inches from her hand. She flinched, gasping, curling into herself like the noise had cracked through her bones. I started walking toward her. She looked up when I reached her. “Jeffrey…” Her voice broke halfway through my name.I didn’t answer. I grabbed her arm and yanked her up from the ground. She was shaking, her lips pale, dust clinging to her cheeks.“Where do you think you were running to,” I asked, my voice low, trembling with restrained fury

CHARLOTTEI was still standing by the door, trying to gather my thoughts, when it suddenly swung open with such force that I stumbled back. Before I could even process what was happening, Matilda was already in my room. Her eyes were wild, blazing with fury, and her lips curled into a smile that sent a shiver down my spine.“Did I stutter when I said open the door?” she hissed.I froze. My throat went dry. “Whg are you in my room...”I didn’t get to finish. She grabbed me by the neck so fast I didn’t even see her hand move. My feet left the ground as her fingers tightened around my throat. I choked out a cry, clawing at her wrist, gasping for air. My heart pounded in my chest so hard I thought it would explode.“Tell me,” she snarled, her grip tightening. “What did you see?”I could barely speak. My lips trembled as I tried to breathe through her crushing hold. “I…. I didn’t see anything… I swear,” I croaked, desperate. “Please, Matilda, I swear I didn’t see anything!”Her eyes bored

EMMALAINE "So when do you intend to stop avoiding me?"Evelyn’s voice slid across the kitchen like honey and a dare. She was leaning against the pantry door, arms crossed, smile too easy. The morning light hit her hair and made a halo I couldn’t seem to look away from.I snatched a rag from the counter and kept my back to her. “I don’t plan on stopping,” I said flatly. My voice sounded small to my own ears. I scrubbed at a pot I hadn’t even meant to clean; it was an excuse to keep moving, to keep from looking at her.Evelyn laughed. “You better think this through, Emmalaine. You’ve been running on fury and instinct, and while that’s impressive because I love hide and seek… it’s not helping any of us. I could save you.” Her eyes didn’t blink as she said it, like she was offering me a fact, not a choice.“Save me?” I barked a laugh that tasted like ash. “Save me from what? From learning to take care of myself? Go to hell, Evelyn. I’ll manage.” I turned, forced a smile I didn’t feel, an

CHARLOTTE I stood in front of the mirror, staring at my reflection like I was about to meet a different version of myself. The navy-blue suit hugged me perfectly, every line sharp and polished. My makeup was light but just how I want it, nude lipstick, soft contour, and a hint of boldness in the liner. I slipped on my sunglasses and smiled faintly at the woman staring back at me. Confident. Composed. Unrecognizable.“Alright, Charlotte,” I whispered under my breath, adjusting my blazer one last time. “Time to show them what you’re made of.”Today wasn’t just another day. It was the day I’d walk straight into Hartwell Enterprises — Alpha Jeffrey’s empire.He’d made it clear that he didn’t want me working, not while I was pregnant. He wanted me safe, rested, pampered. But sitting around, waiting for the world to burn around me, had never been my thing. Especially not now that I knew what people like Matilda and her snakes were capable of.So, I’d taken matters into my own hands. A litt

CHARLOTTE My whole body was shaking.The air in the pack hall was thick and suffocating as I stood there, staring at Jeffrey. His expression was one I had never seen before, pure rage, betrayed fury, and confusion all tangled together. The crowd had already started murmuring again, their whispers clawing at my skin like tiny blades.I swallowed hard and forced myself to take a step toward him. “Jeffrey,” I whispered, my voice trembling, “please, listen to me.”He turned to me so fast that I froze mid-sentence. His eyes were now blazing with anger. Before I could say another word, his hand shot out and gripped my wrist tightly.“Did you?” he demanded, his voice low but deadly. “Did you cheat on me with my guard?”“What? No!” I cried, my eyes widening. “Jeffrey, I could never..”He cut me off by slamming his fist into the wall right beside my head. The sound echoed through the hall like a thunderclap, making several people gasp. A chunk of plaster broke and fell to the floor. My heart
