Iris' POVThe cell was cold.Not just the metal bench or the concrete walls but the kind of cold that crept into my bones and stayed there. I sat with my knees pulled to my chest, arms wrapped tightly around myself like that could somehow keep everything from falling apart.I couldn’t believe this was real.One moment I was running, crying, barely breathing… the next, handcuffs. Sirens. People were staring at me like I was some kind of monster.A murderer.That word echoed in my head, over and over.I didn't kill him. I was just defending myself. I knew that. Deep in my soul, I knew it. I’d fought back. I’d escaped. That was all. But Eunice had twisted it, just like she twisted everything. She always found a way to make me the villain. Just because I didn't allow her fuck me! All of these to fuck me. I pressed my forehead against the cold bars and shut my eyes.Alice’s face flashed in my mind.The hurt in her eyes when they dragged me away hurt worse than the cuffs ever did. I wond

~ Alpha Duncan“Thorne, wait here!” I ordered.The night air followed me as I strode into the hospital, each step measured. I passed the nurses’ station and one of them looked up, smiling and twisting her hair nervously.“Good evening, sir… how may I help you?” she asked.“I’m looking for a boy. He was admitted here yesterday,” I said, my voice low, controlled.“Oh, yes… I heard… an omega did some… terrible things to him. Who are you? His father?”I smirked, the corner of my lips curling. “I’m Alpha Duncan. I want to see him. To see how he’s doing.”The nurse’s eyes went wide, her cheeks flushing pink. “Oh my… gawd… Alpha Duncan? It’s really you?”I didn’t answer. I simply took the card she handed me.“Room 302,” she said, trying to regain her composure.I didn’t need directions. My presence alone demanded compliance, and I moved toward the room without another word.As I reached 302, I froze for a moment at the sound of the boy’s voice.“I love you too, Mom,” he said into the phone.

~Alpha Duncan I ended the call and stared at my phone for a long moment before setting it down.Eunice was angry. I could hear it beneath her carefully chosen words. Good. Let her be. Anger made people careless and Eunice was dangerous only when she felt in control.I remember when we were little, when our parents were not around we would do sword fights, and when I won she would get angry and push me to the well. I smiled.Eunice was right, I can't imagine I picked an omega over my own sister. I had crossed boundaries for iris. Well, she's my mate. It's a matter of time before I introduce her to everyone.I exhaled slowly, and turned just as footsteps echoed down the stairs. Iris. She stepped into view, her hair falling perfectly over her shoulders, her outfit simple and elegant. My gaze lingered on her like she was the only thing that matters.“ You look gorgeous,” I said softly, and I saw her blushed. “ Thank you ,” she said, trying not to smile widely. He held the car door fo

~ iris Ky walked down the aisle slowly, her boots quiet against the floor. She stopped at the empty seat two rows ahead of me,then hesitated.Her head tilted slightly.Her eyes met mine again.This time, they widened just a fraction.Recognition.My breath caught.No.It couldn’t be.She smiled.Not the polite, classroom kind.The I-know-your kind.Oh.The café.The scarf.The heavy coat.The way she’d leaned closer, laughed softly, slipped her number into my hand like it was nothing.Ky turned fully then, ignoring the empty seat, and walked straight toward me.“Mind if I sit here?” she asked, already dropping her bag beside my desk.Alice glanced between us, confused.“Uh sure,” I said, my voice steady even though my pulse wasn’t.Ky sat, leaning back casually, her knee brushing mine under the desk. “Didn’t expect to see you here,” she murmured, low enough that only I could hear.I leaned closer. “You followed me?”She smirked. “Relax. I transferred weeks ago. Guess fate’s just mess

~irisThe dorm room was quiet when I finally stepped in, dragging my bag behind me. I thought Alice would be here. My scarf and coat were still wrapped tight, lingering smells of coffee and the only city clinging to me. I dropped my bag near the bed and collapsed onto the edge, pulling my phone out almost automatically.Missed calls. Alice. A dozen of them.I swiped them away. Not yet. Not while I was still catching my breath, still shaking off the lingering energy from my outing with Ky. Tonight she was flirty, teasing, bold in a way that made my pulse spike. And when she’d finally waved goodbye, giving me that sly little smile as she slipped off into the night, I’d felt my stomach twist in a way that wasn’t entirely innocent.I let the phone sir on the desk and took a deep breath, trying to steady my racing thoughts. Alice would wait. She always did.I swung the door open to see Alice standing there, her hair falling perfectly over her shoulders, a backpack slung carelessly, and t
