Kael povI stared at the spot where Thalasa had just walked away from, something heavy settling deep in my chest.It wasn’t just unease.It was darker than that.A quiet, creeping feeling that something wasn’t right… that something was being kept from me.Then my wolf, Ethan, stirred.Why do I feel like she’s hiding something from us? he asked, his voice low and suspicious.I clenched my jaw, immediately pushing back against him.“I already know she’s hiding something,” I muttered under my breath. “But don’t start putting doubts into my head.”Still, I exhaled slowly, running a hand through my hair as the thought refused to leave.“There’s something deeper,” I admitted quietly. “Something she’s not telling us.”My eyes narrowed slightly.“What is Thalasa hiding?” I questioned inwardly. “What is she keeping from all of us… from me?”Over the past few days, I had noticed it.The change.It wasn’t obvious at first, but now it was impossible to ignore. Her behavior had shifted—more guarde

Thalassa’s POVI led Cynthia toward the dining table, my steps a little slower than usual, like my mind wasn’t fully present in my body. The house felt strangely quiet, too quiet for a place that usually had Karen’s voice somewhere in the background or Veran’s heavy footsteps moving around.But today… nothing.I glanced around again as we reached the dining area. The long table was already set, beautifully as always. Plates, cutlery, glasses neatly arranged. And then the food—so many different dishes it almost looked like a celebration no one told me about. The aroma hit me immediately, warm and rich, wrapping around my senses in a way that made my stomach tighten with sudden hunger.For a moment, I just stood there, staring.Cynthia let out a soft sound beside me. “Wow…”I nodded slightly, still distracted, still wondering where Karen and Veran had gone. It wasn’t like them to just disappear without saying anything, especially not when food was ready. Something about the silence felt

“I didn’t come here to fight with you,” Cynthia’s brother said after a long moment of silence. His voice wasn’t as sharp as before, but it still carried a hint of tension. “I just came to check on you. But Mom’s memorial is coming up soon… she’ll finally be laid to rest. I thought I should let you know and ask if you’ll be coming.”I let out a quiet breath I didn’t even realize I had been holding. At least things weren’t getting worse between them. For a second, it almost felt like there could be peace.“You don’t even need to ask,” Cynthia replied, her voice calm but firm. “You already know I’ll be there.”Another silence followed, heavier this time. It was the kind that carried unsaid words, buried emotions, and questions neither of them wanted to face.“In as much as you want to avoid this matter,” her brother finally said, his tone hardening again, “there are still questions you need to answer. And you will answer them… very soon.” He paused briefly before continuing, “But for now

Hearing the man mention his brother, I felt a slight tension rise inside me. My curiosity was instantly triggered.Karen’s brother.Just hearing about him made something in me tighten.I didn’t need anyone to tell me the kind of person he was. Even back in high school, when everything happened, I could already tell. He wasn’t the one who directly made my life miserable, but he was never innocent either. There was always something off about him… something dark.So whatever this was about, I knew it couldn’t be anything good.“What about him?” Karen asked, his voice calm but serious.The man straightened a little before speaking again. “Well… recently, your brother has been trying to transfer half of the company ownership to himself. I mean, the shares that are supposed to belong to both of you… he’s trying to separate and claim a larger portion.”I frowned slightly, trying to process what he just said.That didn’t sound right at all.Karen’s expression immediately changed. “I don’t und

He apologized, and I could see it clearly in his eyes this time. The guilt wasn’t hidden anymore. It sat there openly, heavy and real, like it had been eating him up from the inside. I didn’t even know how to respond to that. My mind went blank, my emotions scattered in too many directions at once.I had told myself before that if he ever apologized, I wouldn’t just accept it easily. I would stay strong. I would make him feel everything I went through. But now that he was standing in front of me like this, looking at me like that, I didn’t feel as firm as I thought I would.And worse… I had seen his pack.That alone had changed something inside me. I didn’t want to admit it, but it had softened me in a way I wasn’t ready for.I finally exhaled slowly and found my voice. “But you remember what I told you,” I said, lifting my eyes to him. “I told you your brother was lying to you.”For a second, there was silence between us.Then he stepped closer and took my hands in his, holding them
