71: The insider

Marvin“Far from it. Must she be my mate for me to care that much? Isn’t she also a living being who deserved the slightest bit of compassion?”Renz asked, and something in my chest tightened painfully as I turned towards the drawer, pulling it open to select my clothes, a simple dark shirt and grey pants. At least she wasn’t his mate. Because if she had been, I would have been pacing off the walls by now, restless, violent, until the bones in my palms cracked under the pressure.“She was a living soul, and I don’t find it settling that things turned out that way. Besides, she brought it upon herself when she plotted with that guard to help Rita escape, which you know the punishment wasn’t meant to be any lighter.”“And yet, the same Rita you so much despised even after everything, the same one you had punished brutally without closer investigation and accused wrongly, is the same one you left in your room all night. Don’t you think you aren’t doing these things correctly? Don’t you t

72: HER: More questions

The drive wasn't anything but twisting in a certain way, bringing back sad, dark past and nostalgic feelings I didn't even want to dwell on.Also, that piece of information Pascal delivered was just so unexpected. I still remembered that piece of information from ten years ago, while I was still out of my pack for my strategic training, when the news of her parents’ execution got to me.It wasn't one piece of information I enjoyed, especially when I learnt they had a daughter Alpha Philip wasn't aware of.He was so mean and rude to have passed that judgment for a crime as simple as what they committed.I had felt a deep, lingering pity for the poor child. No one, absolutely no one, let alone a child, deserved to endure such cruelty.The judgment passed on her parents had been harsh, unnecessarily so, for a crime that hardly warranted such severity. It spoke of a man who ruled without restraint.When I eventually returned to check out affairs regarding my pack and then returned back to

73: Renz's POV

RenzI'm so upset as I leave Marvin's room, feeling my blood rise up my spine. This wasn't the Marvin I had known for so long now. He had truly changed, and that isn't sitting well with me.I must have been truly quiet this entire time, but that doesn't mean I'm in any way giving him a thumbs up for all he had done.He might be the Alpha, but beyond that, he was my friend first. Or at least, he used to be. Subjecting a lonely omega to such a level of punishment wasn’t justified. It was cruel, unnecessarily cruel, no matter what she or her friend might have done.And then the question… asking if she was my mate.That made it worse.So I should only care if she is my mate? If she isn’t, then I’m supposed to feel nothing? Not even basic concern?What the hell has gotten into him?I was supposed to return to my room, collapse into my bed, and finally get some proper rest after an entire night of sleeplessness. But the information I had just received this morning refused to let me settle.

74: About Kate

By this time of the morning, omegas are already at their duty posts, doing their respective activities, which include breakfast and every other chore.It made a cold pit settle in my stomach as I hurried out of the kitchen floor towards the servant quarters, only to feel certain eyes following me.I didn’t stop, I forced my way in, only to spot Sable slipping through the narrow, shabby hallway. Her face was twisted in a deeper, sharper disgust, and her eyes dragged over me slowly, deliberately, like she wanted me to feel every ounce of her hatred.“Hope you are satisfied now? Having led that innocent omega to an early grave, just by associating with you,” Sable said, her voice filled with venom as she hissed and turned away.I wanted to stop her, to grab her arm and demand she explain what she meant, but I couldn’t bring myself to fully process those words. They struck me like a brutal blow to the face, knocking the very air from my lungs in one merciless hit.My steps faltered, my ba

75: Her brutal claims

Marvin When Renz left my room, the weight I had been holding back crashed down on me, heavier than I expected. I stared down at my hands, and for a moment, it felt like I was still holding the blood of an innocent omega. “But she wasn't innocent,” I tried to convince myself, yet the words refused to settle. No matter how hard I pushed, I couldn't breathe past the heaviness in my chest. I turned away and took several gulps of wine. I hadn't eaten anything since morning, and immediately I felt my stomach twist as the alcohol burned its way down. So much had happened ever since I took over. Speaking of which, I reached for my second phone, the one I had sworn not to use yet. I paused mid-dial. My thumb hovered before I cut the call. I tried again, then stopped once more, setting the phone down entirely. I paced my chambers, back and forth, then moved to the window. The morning air brushed against my skin, cool and steady. For a brief moment, it calmed me, but it didn't last. The w

76: Raw collusion

Rita He was a beast, a monster, a dangerous being, harsh, ruthless, and the worst kind of creature to exist, not to mention being an Alpha… or even my mate. I hated how the truth sat bitterly in my chest, but a man stained with the blood of my innocent friend could never be my mate. And I cursed the day I ever laid eyes on him. I cursed the very moment I was forced to mark him. He’s a beast, a heartless one at that, and I don’t care whatever he chooses to do to me. I would embrace it and return every ounce of it to the Moon Goddess. She should be pleased, shouldn’t she? At how far my life has spiraled from the very first time I met him… up until now, where everything is nothing but a storm of uncertainties, cruelties, and endless suffering. How do I even live now knowing that Kate was gone? How do I survive with the knowledge that this, everything, happened because she tried to help me? Because if she hadn’t stepped in, Marvin wouldn't have punished her. Did she see it coming whe

77: Her details

MarvinI had wanted to punish her in the best possible way. In a way that she wouldn't even have the guts to speak back to me, a way she would regret ever speaking to me or laying abuses on her Alpha in the manner she had done.But then, I found it even more difficult not to feel every bit of the pleasure fouling up in me just by the moment with her. Sex had always been one of the weapons I had thought would inflict pain on her, taking her furiously and beastly, but then again, everything had snapped to the extent that I'm even asking myself certain questions that had no answers.And Kendrick, that asshole of a wolf, is at it again, reproving me, warning me as always, threatening as always, but one thing was always the case: I shut him off as always, not willing him to take over.At the slightest slip, he pushed forward, but not completely. It turned into a brutal, internal battle, me against my wolf, with Rita still curled up in the middle of it all.I needed to think straight. I nee

78: Even in death

RenzI'm still not happy with everything that's happened, and certainly, I'm only trying to avoid Marvin for my own reasons. I didn’t want to confront him about that issue again.Even if it's painful to take everything in at once, it still refuses to settle easily in my chest. And to crown it all, what Darius had unveiled to me keeps making my chest heave with a weight I can't ignore.I want to inform Marvin about it. He's the Alpha; he's supposed to handle this, but something in me insists I should confront her first, in person.I'm already boiling by the time I call her over, and when she arrives, she bows her head slightly, her arms folded neatly behind her back, her composure rigid, controlled… but not shaken.“How about you tell me how you made it past the guards into my room?” I asked Sable as she slowly lifted her head, surprise flickering across her face as she took in my expression, one that I know isn't calm or even remotely friendly.“Beta Renz, I didn't get into your room,

79: Closing in

MarvinThe council of elders had already gathered by the time I returned from checking on the warriors at the clinic. The further discovery was so shocking, and I was yet to decide what should be done.Losing another two warriors was just too much a weight to carry, and from the look of things, and then doctor Amy's conclusion, I feared they might not survive past another twenty-four hours, and the worst part was there was nothing we could do about it.Even the best healers she had sent for hadn't been able to proffer any solutions, and so far, I must say, Mum’s case was even a little better, or even though I'm not yet sure of her current status, Mum got to live past four solid years even though in bed, but it wasn't this severe and more complicated like it is so far turning.I've not seen Renz yet, but I’ve managed to mindlink the guards with Rita to get any feedback on her status. I don't know why I can't tell them to stop whatever they were doing to her, even though I knew how rest

80: Hidden danger

Marvin“It’s nothing to worry about since we aren’t yet certain, like we rightfully stated,” Elder Linus said, his tone dismissive, almost too casual for the weight of the situation, but I wasn’t buying that bullshit. Not for a second.“But you are yet to tell us who were affected in the packhouse by the attack. That way, we can have a head start on how to tackle the issue and get to the root of it,” I pressed, my gaze sweeping across the elders.They exchanged looks, silent, cautious, almost guarded, but no one spoke.Silence swallowed the room, thick and suffocating, heavy with whatever truth they were deliberately hiding. It clung to the air, dense and unyielding. They had mentioned something earlier… sealed by a promise.But I had never heard Dad speak of any promise from twenty years ago, or anything even close to it. And Sir Raymond wasn’t currently in the pack. Even when he had shown me the documents and everything I needed to get acquainted with, not once had he mentioned any
