Kyra’s POV I picked up a piece of fruit, feeling a little awkward under Norway's watchful eye."Don't stress yourself," he said. "I'll take care of everything. I'll send some maids to assist you in washing up and getting dressed.""Thank you," I said againNorway smiled. "You don't have to thank me," he said. "Just rest and let me take care of everything."I nodded. Besides, I was exhausted. Maybe I could trust him. Maybe he was different from his brother and would really take care of me.The maid came up to me, smiling. "Let me help you wash up," she said.I nodded. I felt a little awkward as the maid led me to a small bathroom attached to the room. Norway watched me go, still smiling."I'll be back," he said. "Just rest."As the maid helped me wash up and dress, I tried to understand my new situation.Why was Norway being so nice to me? I didn't understand it.When the maid finished, I walked back into the room, where Norway was waiting for me. I looked at him, searching for answe

Roderick's POV "You connived with the elders to try and get me to choose you, didn't you? Are you that pathetic, Sophie?" Sophie stood before me, while I twirled the pen in my hands with a poker-faced expression.“Alpha, I'm sorry, I don't know what you're talking about," She lied.This was one thing I didn't like about people. They would still try to lie like it would save them from what would originally have befallen them."What do you think of getting hanged, Sophie? How does it sound?" I asked, staring at her.She wasn't standing close to me. The goddess knows I'll snap her neck if she comes anywhere near me— but I could feel the fear emanating from her."It would be very awful, Alpha." She replied, wiping sweat off her face. A list of things could be running through her mind, but I knew what was at the top of that list. I didn't need to be a mind reader to know her thoughts.She could be wondering exactly what I would do to her."Awful? I asked how fancy it would be." I stop

Roderick's POV “What brings you to Devil Bay, Alpha Lorenzo?” I inquired the instant I took a seat in front of him. A soft smile formed on the face of the pale man before me. His gaze lingered on me for a while as though he was looking for something. “You have nothing to worry about. We are alone in this room,” I said, knowing what his concerns were.“That's very good then,” he said. A soft sigh escaped his lips, and he finally relaxed. I leaned against my chair, silently watching his movement. "It's an honour to see the Alpha of the Devil Bay Pack in person. I never expected you to be this young," he chuckled slightly, his tone sounded provocative.We both knew the reason he was here.The news that their noble got killed in my territory was nothing but lies.Green Ville was a peaceful pack far away from Devil Bay, and up to this day, people still question the time of their existence and wonder how long their Alpha had been ruling the pack. There had been no news from the Alphas

Sophie's POV“What?!”His words echoed repeatedly in my head like a broken record skipping the same haunting phrase. My heart pounded so fiercely I thought it might burst. I instinctively pulled away from him, taking two unsteady steps backward, almost stumbling.“I…I don’t know what you’re talking about,” I stammered, voice trembling as I struggled to form a coherent sentence. But I caught the coldness in his eyes intensifying like shards of ice, piercing through me relentlessly.I couldn’t tell him where I was that day!I clenched my hands tightly as I felt my heart beat rapidly against my ribcage and the memory of that day weighed heavily on me.On the very day Alpha Roderick planned to visit Green Ville, I was nowhere near his sight—I was hidden in Kyra’s room, desperate to find any clue that would reveal her whereabouts. I was searching for information I could use to ensure she would be gone for good. If her body was ever found, I wanted the Alpha to believe she had either starv

Kyra's POV“Lady Kyra, is there a problem? You seem to be picking at your meal. Don't you like it?” Alpha Norway's gentle voice drifted into my ears, bringing me back to the present moment.I looked away from my food and focused on the smile on his face. “Oh, no! Not at all. I was just distracted for a moment. The food is perfect!” I smiled at him and returned to the meal before me.He chuckled and continued eating. A moment of silence passed, and I sensed that our next conversation would be meaningless.Louis Hall was the most prestigious place in his pack, and not just anyone could enter. I noted the absence of his concubine and felt a mix of curiosity and apprehension.“You don’t have to walk on eggshells. I’ve told you before,” he added, pausing his meal.He dropped his spoon onto the neatly arranged tablecloth next to his plate and glanced at me.Oh?He thought I was being cautious?A soft smile crossed my lips as I realized the misunderstanding. He mistook my actions for someth
