149: What Have You Done

Vivienne“Wh… what have you done?”The words tore out of me before my brain could even catch up, before logic could settle, before anything could make sense of what I was seeing. My legs moved on their own, panic driving me forward as I dropped hard beside Zach, my hands shaking as they hovered over him like I didn’t know where to touch, where to start, how to fix something that already felt broken beyond repair.“Zach… hey… Zach!”My voice cracked as I grabbed his face, turning it toward me, blood slick beneath my fingers, warm… too warm which means it just happens. His skin was pale, lips losing color, chest... his chest was not moving.No.No no no no...“Breathe!” I snapped, like I could command life back into him just by saying it, like he would listen the way he always had when we were younger, when things were simple and safe and he wasn’t lying in a pool of his own blood on a cold floor.My hands moved fast, pressing against his chest, shaking him, checking for anything...any

150: Cold Justice

Vivienne“We’re investigating the murder. Please calm down… and I’m sorry for your loss.”Dante’s voice was calm, controlled and all Alpha.I sat on the edge of my bed, back straight, hands resting on my thighs like I was holding myself together by force alone. My face was blank, expression locked into something unreadable, something safe, because if I let even a crack show, everything inside me would spill out and I wasn’t ready for that kind of mess. Not in front of them and definitely not in front of anyone.Sorry for your loss.The words echoed in my head like a joke.Loss.Like Zach was just some… casualty. Some number added to a report. Some unfortunate incident they would file away under resolved once they found someone to blame.My fingers curled slightly into the fabric of my pants, nails digging in just enough to ground me.Dante and Kane stood across from me, not too close or too far, just enough distance to make it clear this wasn’t personal. This was business. This was in

151: Fractures

ChapterDanteThe meeting room was quiet, not the normal kind of silence we had during strategy talks, but the heavy one that settled when too many things were going wrong at once and no one had a clean answer. Papers were scattered across the table, reports, witness statements, failed leads, and I stood at the head of it all, flipping through them again even though I already knew every line by memory.Three weeks.Three whole weeks since Zach died in our territory, and we still had nothing solid. No face, name or clean trail. Just pieces that didn’t fit together no matter how many times we tried to force them.“As expected,” Ryker said from where he leaned against the wall, arms crossed, voice low but steady. “Nothing new from the southern patrol routes. No unusual crossings. No scent trails that match the night of the murder.”Kane scoffed under his breath, pacing slowly like a caged animal that didn’t even realize it was wearing itself out. “Because whoever did it knew exactly wha

152: Breaking Point

Kane I was already angry before I even knew what I was angry about. It sat under my skin like something alive, crawling, biting, refusing to settle no matter how many times I tried to push it down, and the worst part was I couldn’t even pin it on one thing anymore. It wasn’t just Zach’s death. It wasn’t just the investigation going nowhere. It wasn’t even just Vivienne. It was everything. Everything at once. I walked through the hallway like I owned it, boots hitting the floor harder than necessary, the sound echoing off the walls as guards stepped out of my way before I even got close. No one spoke to me, no one greeted me, and that was good because if anyone tried, I would have snapped their head off without thinking twice. My jaw was tight, my fists already clenched, and the pressure in my chest felt like it was building toward something ugly. I needed to hit something badly. The gym doors slammed open under my hand, the heavy metal frame banging against the wall

153: Too Close, Too Late

VivienneI stared at Kane and all I wanted to do was rush into his arms, bury my face in his chest, breathe him in and just… stop thinking for a moment, but I didn’t move because fear sat heavy in my bones, pride held me in place, and exhaustion wrapped around me so tight it felt like I would break if I let go of control even a little.Does he really hate me now?The thought came quiet but sharp, and it stayed there as I kept looking at him, searching his face for something familiar, something warm, something that told me I hadn’t completely ruined whatever we had.I had seen the changes in all of them over the past weeks. The distance and the silence. The way they looked at me like I was something they had already started letting go of. But Kane… Kane was worse. He wasn’t just distant, he was closed off in a way that felt final, like he had taken everything he felt and locked it somewhere I couldn’t reach.And the worst part was… I understood.I wasn’t blameless. I had pushed them, h

154: Fragile But There

Ryker’s POVThe door to the dining room didn’t just open, it slammed wide like someone had kicked it with purpose, and all three of us turned at the same time, instincts sharp because no one walks into this room like that unless they’re stupid or they’re us.And then I saw Kane and in his arms was Vivienne.Not just being carried.No.Being hauled like a stubborn, angry, half-starved little demon who clearly did not agree with the situation.She was squirming, cussing under her breath, one hand pushing at his chest while the other tried to grab his collar like she might choke him out mid-walk, her face flushed, lips pulled into a pout that was more irritation than anything else.I blinked once and then I slowly turned my head to look at Dante and then at Asher.Then back at Kane.“Did we die?” Asher asked quietly, squinting like he didn’t trust what he was seeing. “Because if this is the afterlife, I have questions.”Dante didn’t answer, but I saw the slight twitch at the corner of hi

155: Between Them

Asher’s POVVivienne let out a loud, unapologetic burp the moment she finished eating, leaning back slightly in her chair like she had just conquered a battlefield instead of a plate of food, and I had to clamp my lips together hard to stop the laugh that immediately tried to escape.Kane didn’t bother holding back.“Uncultured woman,” he muttered, scoffing as he crossed his arms, though the corner of his mouth twitched like he was fighting something himself.Vivienne’s head snapped toward him so fast I almost pitied him.Almost.“What did you just say?” she asked, voice low and cold, the kind that usually comes right before someone loses a tooth.Kane didn’t flinch, didn’t step back, or even blink.“I said,” he repeated calmly, looking right at her, “you’re uncultured.”The silence that followed was sharp, fucking heavy and dangerous.And I… I leaned back slightly in my chair, shifting just enough to get comfortable because this was about to be interesting.It's been long we had this

156

Vivienne’s POVI paced my room slowly, barefoot against the cold floor, one step after another like I was trying to walk my thoughts into order, but nothing was lining up the way it should, everything felt tangled, messy, heavy in my chest, and no matter how many times I replayed dinner in my head, I couldn’t settle the feeling it left behind.It had been… good, too good actually and that was the problem.Because things weren’t supposed to feel like that anymore, not after everything I said, not after the way I pushed them away, not after the way I chose distance and pride over whatever it was they were trying to give me, yet sitting there, eating, arguing, listening to their stupid voices again, it felt like slipping into something familiar, something warm and something I had been pretending I didn’t need.And that scared me.I dragged a hand through my hair, exhaling slowly as I stopped by the window, staring out into the dark without really seeing anything, because my mind wasn’t o

157: I’m Sorry

Vivienne’s POVI woke up to a familiar scent and my eyes cleared faster than they had in days, like my body recognized something before my mind could catch up, and when I turned my head slowly, still heavy from sleep and whatever emotional mess I had drowned in the night before, I saw him sitting beside my bed.Asher.He wasn’t doing anything dramatic, just sitting there with one leg stretched out and the other bent, elbow resting on his knee while he stared off like he’d been lost in his own thoughts, but the moment he noticed I was awake, his head snapped toward me and something in his face shifted, it was quick and guarded but still there.“Morning,” he said, standing up immediately like he’d been waiting for that exact moment, and his voice was normal, like the weeks of tension between us hadn’t existed, like I hadn’t looked him in the eyes and doubted him and I hadn’t pushed him away over and over again.I swallowed slightly, my throat dry, my chest already tightening even though

158: One Step at a Time

VivienneHis lips pressed against mine and for a second the whole world just stopped. The kiss wasn’t rushed or demanding. It was slow and careful like Asher was giving me time to pull away if I wanted to but I didn’t want to. I leaned into it instead my hands still gripping the front of his shirt as something warm and terrifying spread through my chest. His mouth moved against mine soft at first then a little deeper and I felt the way he breathed me in like he had been holding his breath for weeks.My eyes slipped shut and for once my mind didn’t race with excuses or fears. It just let me feel him. The way his fingers brushed my jaw. The way his other hand rested on my lower back pulling me closer without forcing anything. It was Asher. My Asher. The one I had hurt the most and he was still kissing me like I hadn’t broken his trust.When we finally pulled apart I was breathing harder than I wanted to admit. My forehead rested against his chest for a moment because I couldn’t look a
