All Chapters of The Alpha’s Girl: Chapter 131 - Chapter 140

~ Lily’s POV ~I was sitting on my bed, watching my favorite movie and trying to relax after a long day.Someone knocked on the door.“Who is it?” I called.The door opened, and one of the maids came in. She was holding a necklace.“Miss Lily,” she said, “I found this in the kitchen. Is it yours?”I looked at it. My heart jumped a little.“Yes, that’s mine!” I said quickly. “Thank you.”She smiled, handed it to me, and left.When the door closed, I stared at the necklace in my hand.I remembered Mom and Gabriel taking it away from me before. I thought it was gone forever. But here it was again, how did it get back to the kitchen?I turned it over slowly. It was special… not something you could buy at any store and it felt important. Like it had a story.Someone gave it to me. I was sure of it but when I tried to picture who, my mind went blank. Like a missing piece in a puzzle.I shook my head, maybe I was thinking too ha

~ Lily POV ~Some days feel completely normal until they don’t.That Thursday started like any other. “During lunch at school, my stepdad texted: Can you stop by the supermarket after class and grab milk, bread, and a few other things we need for the house? I’ve sent money to your account.”“I replied with a thumbs-up emoji and went back to my sandwich while Elvin absentmindedly doodled a full blood moon in the corner of my notebook.”After the final bell, Elvin had soccer practice, so he waved and jogged toward the field.“Text me when you’re home, okay?” he called.“Okay!” I shouted back.The moment I asked the question that had been weighing on me and saw the look on his face, I knew he was hiding something.I walked alone, earbuds in, playlist on shuffle, mostly songs Kathryn added, the kind that make you pick up your pace without noticing. The sun was still high and warm on my arms.The supermarket was quiet. I grabbed a basket, pic

Graduation day came at last. The sun was shining so bright, and the sky was the clearest blue, like it was celebrating with us. Our university had set up everything outside in the big stadium. There were families everywhere in nice clothes, colorful balloons floating up. All of us graduates wore blue gowns and square caps. The tassels on the caps kept flipping around in the warm wind.I had my blue gown on…the color for our college and my cap finally sat straight after a few tries. My head felt clear for the first time in ages. Over the past few months, I had started to fully remember everything about Bryain. Not all at once, but little by little, like puzzle pieces slowly fitting together.Some memories made me smile really big, like the way he laughed so loudly at my silly jokes, how he held my hand when we walked by the lake, and the nights we stayed up late talking about our dreams for the future. Other memories still made my chest ach

I turned twenty-one today.It felt strange to say it out loud. Twenty-one. An age that meant growing up and the kind of birthday people usually celebrate with big parties, loud music, and lots of noise. Everyone laughing and shouting, “Happy birthday!”But that wasn’t what I wanted.I didn’t need a big party or anything fancy.I just wanted to spend the day with my real friends.So I told everyone I didn’t want anything big.No large hall, no strangers, and no fancy cake with too many candles.I just wanted to celebrate at my apartment in Heartview. We ordered pizza, played music and hung fairy lights around the living room.Only the people who truly mattered were there: Kathryn, Army, Elvins, Linda, Zion, and me.Bryain wasn’t there.This was my first birthday without him since I turned eighteen.The thought felt heavy in my chest all morning, like a stone I couldn’t push away. But I kept smiling, because today wasn’t about being sad.

~ Bryain ~The moon was full and bright that night, Its light made everything glow, like the world was holding its breath for something special.The gathering field looked magical. Fairy lights were hung between the tall pine trees, twinkling softly. Lanterns glowed on every table, and jars filled with flowers added splashes of color. A small wooden stage stood under the big oak tree, waiting quietly.All day, the pack had been excited. People whispered, smiled, and tried not to laugh because they knew something important was about to happen. The girls didn’t know yet because we had kept the surprise a secret for weeks, and tonight was finally the night we would reveal it.We had invited some special guests too—Lily and Kathryn’s dad, and Linda’s mom. They arrived just before the sun began to set.Their dad stepped out of the car looking a little confused, like he wasn’t sure what was going on, but he still had a small, happy smile on his face. He wore
