All Chapters of Alpha：No Second Chance: Chapter 1 - Chapter 7

Angel’s POVThe day after Lilian falsely accused me of plotting to have her attacked by stray wolves, my world collapsed in a way I hadn’t thought possible. I had expected to answer to the accusations, maybe even get summoned by the Pack Council - but nothing prepared me for the sight that greeted me when I reached the Pack’s courtyard.My mate, Bastien , stood in the center of the clearing. And beside him, my five-year-old son Finn held a torch. A few of the guards were present as well but they stood further from the duo.In front of Bastien , inside a reinforced silver cage, was a woman. Upon closer scrutiny, though the face was slightly hidden, I could make out my sister’s form. Her perfume was strong enough that I recognized her instantly.“Dana!” I screamed, lunging forward, but two guards intercepted me, blocking my path with their massive bodies. Their growls rattled the air around me.Bastien didn’t even flinch. “Angel, confess to what you did.”I stared at him, my heart pic

Angel’s POVBy the time I returned to the Packhouse, it was already in the late evening. I had expected to come home and cook dinner then get back to the hospital to make sure Dana was all set for the night. When I arrived, I froze.The scent of warm stew drifted from the kitchen, mixed with the sweet smell of roasted ingredients. For one moment, I thought, foolishly, that maybe someone might notice I’d come home injured, exhausted, and offered to cook a warm meal.But when I stepped into the living room, the warmth there wasn’t for me, it was for her.Lilian sat in the center of the room like a cherished gem, glowing under the attention of everyone that was supposed to be my family. My mother was kneeling beside her, carefully holding up a silver dress against Lilian’s body, a dress I knew came directly from my wardrobe, though no one seemed to think that mattered. My father circled her, discussing what type of jewelry she should wear to the Outstanding Service Award ceremony.“We’

Angel’s POVBastien had gone for a three day business trip, and when he returned, I ran into him in the office.It used to be that the very sound of his footsteps could make my heart flutter. I would straighten my clothes, smooth my hair, and stand a little taller, eager to see him. But this time, when he returned, I was aloof.There was a time when I saw his handsome face after a long period of not seeing me, I would get excited. But now, nothing stirred inside me. Just… nothing.Bastien barely looked at me. He was just plain indifferent.As I proceeded to the break room,“Alpha Bastien looks happier these days,” one colleague whispered behind me.“Of course,” another answered. “He has a girlfriend now. That pretty one… right?”It didn’t take a genius to know that it was Lilian.They didn’t know that Lilian had been practically my previous best friend. That we had practically been inseparable years ago.I kept my face neutral.Soon after, as I stepped outside the premises for fresh

Angel’s POVDana was already waiting outside the Packhouse gate when I stepped out with my suitcase.She stood with her arms folded, sweater sleeves pulled over her wrists. Her gaze swept over my bandaged leg, the swelling along my calf, and the exhaustion that was apparent on my face.Without a word, she took the suitcase from my hand.“Come on,” she murmured.Shadow was still at the vet across the hospital, recovering after nearly working himself to death to save me. The moment we pushed open the clinic door, he struggled upright, tail thumping against the metal table despite the IV line attached to him. “There’s my good boy…” I whispered, stroking his muzzle.He whined softly, leaning his weight into my palm.Dana signed the release forms and helped settle him in the backseat of her car. I buckled myself in with slow movements, each stretch tugging making me wince in pain.When I looked up, Dana’s eyes were fixed on mine through the rear-view mirror. “Why did you leave the hospit
