Lahat ng Kabanata ng Forsaken With His Pup: Kabanata 61 - Kabanata 70

Aria’s POV“Where are we going?” I asked him quietly. My voice sounded unsure even to my own ears.But he didn’t answer. He just kept walking, holding my wrist gently but firmly as he guided me down the long hallway of the palace.I didn’t know what to expect. Each steps was heavy, and my chest tightened a little with every second of silence between us. Then, suddenly, he stopped. I looked up and realized we were standing in front of a familiar door. I recognized it right away.His office.When he pushed the door open, a wave of memories flashed in my head. I stepped inside with him, and the first thing I noticed was the mess on his table. There were papers everywhere, scattered as if he had been digging through them for hours.“Just tell me,” he said, turning to face me so fast that I almost froze. His expression was serious, but there was something gentle in his eyes. “Tell me if you’re ready. I’m not going to force you.”My throat tightened. “You mean…?” I whispered.He nodded. “Ye

Aria’s POV“Though,” he stopped himself, “if you’re tired, it’s okay—you don’t have to—”“No,” I interrupted him. “It’s okay. I want to celebrate too.”He sighed. “Okay.”When we finally stepped outside, we joined the celebration.The entire pack was gathered around, laughing, drinking, and talking.While I was observing everything, one of the elders approached me. His expression was serious as he slowly bowed his head to me. I panicked a little and immediately shook my head.“No, no, you don’t have to do that,” I said quickly.“Aristea, my name is Eldric. I wish to speak with you formally,” he said, looking straight at me. “We understand now that you never did anything wrong to the pack.”He paused for a moment before adding, “We… we were wrong.”I smiled. “It’s okay. I understand.”“If you so choose, the council may assist you in formally severing ties with Alpha Aiden,” he said, “The divorce documents can be prepared and submitted by us; your only responsibility will be for him to

Aria’s POVKaelen and I stepped out, holding hands as we walked through the hallway. We were checking everything—the arrangements, the decorations, the food, even the garments they prepared for us. Everything looked so special, almost too perfect. The hall felt warm and grand, and everyone around us was focused on making sure things were flawless.But even with all that beauty in front of me, I couldn’t stop feeling restless. The nervousness had been crawling in my chest since earlier, ever since Aristea’s voice whispered something to me that I still couldn’t shake off. My mind kept drifting back to it again and again.“What do you think, baby? Hm?”I looked up. Suddenly I realized everyone was staring at me—the servants, the coordinators, even Kaelen. They were all waiting, like they had asked me something important and were expecting my input. I didn’t even notice. I was too lost in my head.“I—I’m sorry. What was your question?” I asked, forcing a small smile.They exchanged looks

Kaelen’s POV“Alpha, you need to calm down.”“No!” I shouted without thinking. My voice echoed across the room.“How do you expect me to calm down? What if she runs away? What if the wedding doesn’t happen? What if something bad happens to her? I can’t afford for anything to go wrong today. Not today. We worked too hard for this!”I kept pacing back and forth because standing still made my nerves jump even more. Every part of this ceremony had been planned. I pushed myself into every detail and gave everything I could just to make this day perfect for her.I stopped and glanced at my reflection in the mirror again. I was already dressed and ready. My suit looked clean and expensive. My hair was neatly styled, waxed just right. I barely recognized myself.“Alpha,” Lennox said as he stood up and placed his hand on my shoulder. His touch was steady, something I desperately needed. “I’ll go fetch Lady Aria now. But you don’t have to worry so much. Things will be okay. You’re just nervous

Aria’s POVShe took a small step toward me, but I immediately backed away. A low, angry snarl slipped out of my chest before I could stop it.“Where are Aiden and the others?!” I shouted. “Why aren’t they here in the kingdom?!”“Ohh?” she said, pretending to look innocent. “What do you mean? They’re here.”Then she moved her hand—just a small gesture—but it made my stomach twist. I followed the direction of her fingers, and when my eyes landed on the ground behind her, my entire body froze.There were bodies.Several of them.Laid out on the floor like discarded dolls.Blood was everywhere.Too much blood.My fur stood on end. A shiver ran across my spine so violently I almost lost my balance.“What did you do to them?!” I screamed.Olivia only tilted her head, like she was bored. “Nothing personal. They just happened to find out who I really am. And once that happened…” She shrugged lightly. “Of course I had to take matters into my own hands. I couldn’t just let them walk around with
