Alpha Liam

Alpha Liam’s POV The journey to Elder Thorne’s estate should have been quiet, strategic and focused. We had things to think about, plans to refine, possibilities to consider, and enemies to anticipate.But instead, I was listening to Jane and Caleb talk like childhood friends who had just reunited after years apart.And it was… irritating… Deeply irritating.With measured and controlled steps, I walked ahead of them at first, sticking my hands behind me. The guards followed at a distance, giving us space, which would have been ideal if only the two of them weren’t filling that space with endless chatter.I didn't want to listen. But no matter how much I tried to not listen, their chatter kept finding me. “So why did you join Liam’s pack?” Jane asked, her voice filled with curiosity.Caleb chuckled softly. “You really have a lot to ask today.”“I like knowing things,” she replied.“Yes, we’ve all noticed,” he teased.We? I clenched my jaw slightly.Who are the “we”?Jane giggled slig

Alpha Liam

Alpha Liam’s POV I could feel how close we were to elder Thorne's estate. It wasn't all about the distance but also by the shift in the air. That kind of change that always came before something significant happened. As the forest thinned gradually, the tall trees gave way to a clearer path that led straight to the estate grounds. That was when I stopped walking, and the others halted behind me.As I turned to face them, my expression hardened into something colder. The same version of me they were already used to following. Everyone's attention landed on me immediately. Good because that was exactly what I needed.“For those who are focused, you would have noticed the changes in the forest,” I said, my gaze fixed on no one and everyone at the same time. They nodded. “The plan doesn’t change,” I continued without hesitation. Then my gaze landed on Caleb, whose arms were already crossed slightly. Then on Jane, who was for the first time, focused without side talk. Then back to Cal

Alpha Liam

Alpha Liam’s povMia? Was the name supposed to ring a bell? “That's Mia and Theo,” Jane said, already moving towards them. I followed quickly. I would have stopped her but I didn't. The last time she saw Theo, it was the day he rejected her at the festival. Clearly, they had an unsettled business. Both Theo and Mia noticed our presence, and immediately they stopped talking. It wasn't like we wanted to hear their conversation. Even the one I heard a few minutes ago, I couldn't remember it. “Jane?” Both of them echoed, astonishment laced in their voices. “Yes, that's me,” Jane retorted. “What are you doing here?” Theo asked, his voice slightly shaking as if her presence had an effect on him. Then his attention shifted to me. “Alpha Liam,” he said, his tone laced with disdain, like the sight of me offended him. To be honest, the feeling was mutual. “Theo,” I said flatly. The moment his name left my mouth, I knew exactly what kind of conversation this was going to be.It was c

Jane

Jane’s POV The moment Mia dragged me away from the entrance hall, I knew exactly what she was trying to do. She was trying to separate me from Liam. She thought she could corner and intimidate me. Those old tactics could have worked on the old me. Too bad for her, I wasn’t that girl anymore. And the plan I had for her wasn't something she could see coming. Her grip on my arm was tight, almost as if she was afraid I would disappear if she loosened it. She didn’t say anything at first, just kept walking, her heels clicking sharply against the floor as we moved deeper into the house.The further we went, the more familiar everything became. The walls, the corridors, even the air was familiar. Memories tried to creep in, but I pushed them back. This wasn’t the time, and definitely not the place.The moment we stepped into the kitchen area, I stopped walking. She didn’t notice until I pulled my arm away from her grip. Mia turned to me, clearly not expecting resistance.“What…”Her word

Alpha Liam

Alpha Liam’s POV“And what's the cause of this display?” Elder Thorne asked. “Your son will gladly answer,” I said, my irritation evident in my voice. Because I was in his territory didn't mean he could question me like one of his own. He didn't speak. He just glanced at his son and looked away instantly. I could see the disappointment he had been carrying around. The rumor about his disdain for his son wasn't a lie. “We need to talk,” I said. He didn't reply. He just gestured for me to follow him and I did. Of course, I did. That was the reason I was there. Theo followed behind us, his uninvited presence added to my irritation. We settled at the centre of the main hall. Elder Thorne sat, I settled across and Theo… he didn't sit. He just stood there like a wolf in the wrong pack. How did he end up as an alpha? Who are the people he is leading? He clearly had nothing but his arrogance and prejudice. “What brings you here, Alpha Liam?” Elder Thorne asked.“I’d prefer we speak

Alpha Liam

Alpha Liam’s POV We hadn't even settled Mia’s claim before the door opened again. The moment it did, something shifted in the air. It was subtle, but powerful enough for me to recognize who it was.Jane or Lyra… Whatever name she chose to wear, I knew her presence anywhere.And when I turned, there she was, walking in like she belonged there… like she wasn’t stepping into the lion’s den… like she hadn’t once been thrown out of this very place like she was nothing.For a brief second, everything else faded as my attention focused on her alone. But that moment didn’t last long because Elder Thorne's voice came sharp and loud, cutting through everything like a blade. “Have you completely lost your mind?” he asked, his eyes were locked on her, burning with anger that wasn’t even hidden.“You dare walk into my house and cause chaos?” he continued.Jane didn’t flinch. She didn’t even blink. Instead, she walked further in, her chin slightly raised, and her gaze remained steady.“I didn’t c

Jane

Jane’s povThe explosion didn’t just shake the house, it shook me. And it shook me to the core. One moment, I was standing beside Liam, trying to make sense of Elder Thorne’s disturbing confession, the next, everything shattered. Everything literally shattered. The sound was deafening. It felt like the entire estate was screaming. Glass burst from the windows, walls cracked open, the stones raining down. Even wood splintered like fragile sticks.The beautiful mansion that once looked untouchable suddenly became a death trap that was bathed in fire. When the fire came, it was so bright, violent and hungry. It was like hell broke loose on the house, swallowing curtains, furniture, walls and everything in seconds.Smoke rose so quickly that I could barely process what was happening. I felt Liam grab me before the explosion fully spread. His arms wrapped around me protectively as debris rained around us.“Stay close!” he yelled.That was the last thing I heard from him before the chaos

Alpha Liam

Alpha Liam’s povPain was the first thing I felt.I wasn't even confused about my feelings. The pain was raw and violent, unforgivingly persistent. It crawled through every inch of my body like fire still lived beneath my skin.My chest felt tight, my ribs felt cracked. My back burned like someone had repeatedly pressed hot iron against it. Even breathing felt like a punishment.A groan escaped my lips before I could stop it. Then the darkness shifted, just enough for me to realize I was waking up. Slowly, I forced my eyes open and awareness evaded me. Everything was blurry at first. I couldn't place the shapes of things. Not until my vision adjusted slowly.The first thing I noticed was that I wasn’t dead. Unfortunately, because death would probably hurt less than whatever I was currently feeling.I was lying on a massive bed, a lot bigger than my own. That was when I realized that I wasn't in my house. Slowly, my eyes scanned the room. It was enormous. Far too elegant to be normal

Jane

Jane’s povSince the whole disaster had happened, I hated mornings. They were nothing but a reminder that Alpha Liam was still missing.Every night I slept without finding him, which meant another day had passed… another day where he could be hurt… another day where he could be dead. And that thought alone was enough to make me feel like I was suffocating.Three days. Three miserable days.Three painful days. Three painfully exhausting days Three painful, exhausting, and miserable days.Three days of walking endlessly through the woods. Three days of searching every trail, every abandoned path, and every hidden corner.Three days of returning to the ruins of Elder Thorne’s estate.Three days of hoping I would find him.Three days of being disappointed whenever I didn't find him. And worst of all, three days of fighting with Caleb.At this point, it had become routine for me. I woke up. I searched everywhere. I got frustrated whenever I didn't find anything. I argued with Caleb be

Jane

Jane's POV I knew we made a decision to return home, but I couldn't just head home without searching some corners. Alpha Liam wasn't a pin but the way I kept searching for him, one might think I was searching for a newborn baby. We weren't locked in the woods, but the forest had become a prison for Caleb and I. My throat felt like sandpaper. My lips were dry and cracked. My feet hurt so badly that every step felt like punishment.Beside me, Caleb looked worse. His clothes were torn. If I didn't know better, I would think he fought a lion. There was dried blood on his shoulder from injuries he had ignored. His usually neat hair looked like he had fought with a storm and lost.I felt miserable, but whenever I glanced at him, I was reminded of how miserable I looked. He was a reflection of myself. “I need water,” Caleb muttered.I didn’t respond because I had no intention to waste my saliva on him. “Jane,” he tried again. Still, I didn't respond. “Jane.”“What?” I snapped, my voic
