Semua Bab HE CHEATED, I CHOSE THE TWIN ALPHA: Bab 61 - Bab 70

While my mind was spinning in complete chaos, Cynthia was sitting comfortably beside me, sipping her drink like nothing in the world could go wrong. She leaned back in the chair, smiling freely, laughing softly at something someone across the room said. The glow from the lights reflected off her glass as she took another sip.Looking at her made my chest tighten.Something wasn’t right.I could feel it deep inside me, that heavy, crawling feeling that warned me of danger. The kind that didn’t shout—but whispered. The kind that made your skin prickle for no reason and your heart beat too fast.Then suddenly—Clink.A soft sound cut through the room.Someone had gently hit a glass cup with a spoon.The noise wasn’t loud, but it was enough.Conversations stopped. Laughter faded. Even the music lowered until the entire room went quiet. Every head turned toward the man standing at the center of the room.He looked confident, dressed neatly, his posture straight. From the way people respect

Then I felt it clearly—Cynthia’s heartbeat.It was beating heavily.Too fast.It thudded wildly against her chest, so loud that for a moment I swore I could actually hear it. Her hand was cold in mine, slightly damp with sweat, and her fingers trembled as she held on to me like I was the only solid thing left in the room.I squeezed her fingers gently.Not because I was brave.But because she needed it.“It’s okay,” I whispered softly, even though it wasn’t. Even though I was lying through my teeth.She leaned closer to me, her shoulder brushing mine. Her breathing was shallow and uneven, like she was afraid that if she breathed too deeply, something terrible would happen. I could feel her fear soaking into me, mixing with my own.Then—The beta clapped his hands once.The sound was sharp and sudden, slicing through the room and making several people jump.“Now,” he said calmly, his voice echoing slightly, “we’ll go around the circle. One by one.”My stomach twisted painfully.“You’ll

Then the game started again.As if nothing had happened.As if a girl hadn’t just been shot right in front of us.The bottle spun once more, clinking softly against the table, and people began answering again. This time, everyone told the truth. No lies. No hesitation. Fear had done its job. The rules were clear now—one mistake, one lie, and you were dead.For a moment, it almost felt… calm. Too calm.My heart, however, refused to slow down. I stayed alert, my senses sharp, constantly watching Cynthia from the corner of my eye. She was quiet, her body stiff, her face pale. She was still processing everything, still trapped in shock.Then the bottle stopped.It landed on Cynthia.My breath caught in my throat.Before the beta could even speak, a man I had never seen before suddenly raised his voice. “I want to ask her,” he said eagerly.My stomach dropped.Cynthia panicked instantly. I felt it through the way her body tensed beside me. Without thinking, I reached for her hand and squee

Before I could fully process what was happening, a sharp pain exploded through the side of my stomach.I gasped, my body jerking in shock.My eyes dropped slowly, and that was when I saw it.A knife.Sticking out of my side.My heart stuttered violently against my chest as panic rushed through me. I turned my head weakly and saw the girl standing there, her hand still gripping the handle. Her face was twisted with rage and satisfaction.I tried to pull the knife out, my hands shaking, but it wouldn’t move.Silver.The realization hit me hard. That was why it hurt so badly. That was why my body felt like it was shutting down.Cynthia screamed when she saw it. “Oh my God!” she cried, rushing toward me in panic.My legs gave out, and I collapsed onto the ground, the world spinning around me. My breathing became heavy and uneven, each breath harder than the last. The girl stepped closer, lifting the knife again, her eyes wild.“I told you,” she hissed. “I told you I was going to finish yo

As Kaeren, Kael, and the rest of his crew walked toward the table where we were seated, I felt every eye in the room turn in our direction. It was the kind of stare that made your skin crawl, like people were watching a public execution instead of a casual gathering. For a moment, I wished the ground would crack open and swallow me whole.They didn’t seem bothered at all.They pulled out chairs and sat down as if we were old friends meeting up after years apart, relaxed and unbothered by the tension hanging thick in the air. I turned to Cynthia and studied her face. She looked pale, like someone who was seconds away from collapsing. Whether it was shame, fear, or pure discomfort, I couldn’t tell—but whatever it was, it had drained all the color from her face.Before I could say anything, Kaeren dragged his chair closer to mine and sat down. Instantly, his cologne hit me—strong, masculine, and annoyingly familiar. I stiffened, my body reacting before my mind could stop it.“Hey, Thalas
