Lahat ng Kabanata ng HE CHEATED, I CHOSE THE TWIN ALPHA: Kabanata 181 - Kabanata 190

Karen's povThe moment those words left his mouth, everything became clear.They had set me up.A false accusation.That was why I wasn’t allowed inside. That was why everything felt controlled, staged. They wanted to keep me out so they could pass judgment without me, so they could make Thalasa believe I was the one who betrayed her.My fists tightened instantly, anger rising fast in my chest.“Let me in,” I said, trying to push forward.The guard stepped in again and blocked me, this time firmer.“Please, Alpha Karen,” he said, his voice tense. “Don’t make this worse. We were given strict orders not to let you in. The more you push this, the worse it will become.”I stopped.Not because I wanted to…But because something else caught my attention.I looked around slowly.There were too many of them.Way too many.Armed. Alert. Watching me carefully like I was the threat.They were scared.That alone told me everything.I exhaled slowly, forcing myself to think instead of react.I did

Thalasa POVAfter Kael left, it wasn’t long before we started hearing chaos outside. The noise grew louder with each passing second, and my heart began to pound faster. Something was happening, something serious, and I could feel it deep in my chest.I turned to Cynthia quickly. “Is there any way you can break out of that cage?” I asked, my voice tense with urgency.She shook her head weakly. “No… I’ve tried,” she said, her voice tired. “They suppressed my powers. I can’t use anything. If there was a way, I would have escaped a long time ago.”My chest tightened as I looked at her. That meant we were completely trapped.The noise outside grew even louder, echoing through the walls, making my anxiety worse.Something was wrong.The chaos outside kept growing louder, the sounds of shouting and movement crashing against the walls until it became impossible to ignore. My heart was already racing, but then something else hit me—a scent.I froze.I inhaled again, sharper this time, and my e

Thalasa POVEverything happened too fast for my mind to keep up.The moment Kael fell, the entire hall shifted again, but this time it wasn’t confusion—it was anger. Heavy, suffocating anger that filled the air like a storm about to break. The Alphas rose from their seats, one after the other, their presence pressing down on us with authority and judgment.Then the head Alpha stepped forward, his gaze fixed directly on Karen.“So this is what it has come to?” he said, his voice calm but filled with quiet fury. “You have chosen to turn your back on us… for a forbidden creature?”Karen didn’t step back. He stood there, chest rising and falling, blood still trailing down his body, his eyes no longer as wild as before but still burning with something intense.“She is not just a creature,” he replied, his voice low but firm. “She matters to Thalasa.”A murmur spread across the hall, but the head Alpha’s expression didn’t change.“Then you have made your choice,” he said coldly. “Because we

Thalasa POVWe kept moving.At first, it felt like we were just trying to put distance between us and everything that had happened, but as time passed, it became clear that we weren’t just running—we were surviving. Hours stretched endlessly, turning into what felt like days, and by the time the sky began to darken again, my legs were aching and my body was begging for rest.Karen was right.The place was far.Farther than I expected.We didn’t stop much, only slowing when absolutely necessary, and even then, our conversations were never light. Everything we talked about revolved around one thing—how to stay alive.“They won’t come at us blindly next time,” Cynthia said as we walked through the thick path of trees. “They’ll plan. They’ll track. They’ll predict our moves.”Karen nodded. “Which means we stop being predictable.”I glanced between them. “And how exactly do we do that?”“We don’t follow a straight path,” he replied. “We change direction when needed, avoid open areas, and n

Thalasa POVThe moment we stepped inside, I paused.From the outside, the place had been nothing more than a quiet structure hidden between trees, almost too ordinary to notice, but inside… it felt different. The space was small, yes, but everything had been arranged with care. The walls were smooth, the furniture simple but well-crafted, and there was a faint warmth to the place that made it feel lived in, not abandoned. It wasn’t luxurious, but it wasn’t rough either. It was the kind of place someone had built to stay hidden without feeling like they were surviving.I walked further in, my eyes taking everything in slowly. “For a hideout,” I said, letting my fingers brush against the edge of a table, “this is actually nice.”Karen didn’t say anything, but I noticed the slight shift in his shoulders, like something in him had loosened. Cynthia, on the other hand, didn’t look impressed. Her gaze moved across every corner, sharp and alert, like she was measuring the safety of the place
