51. CAN ONE DINNER SAVE A FAMILY?

Brielle's POVA frantic knock echoed through my chambers. I frowned and looked up from the book resting on my lap. “Come in.”The door swung open, and one of the servants stepped inside, her face pale. “Luna Brielle… your mother is here.”My brows lifted. Mother?She never came to my chambers without sending word first. “Let her in.”The servant stepped aside. The moment Mother crossed the doorway, I froze.Her eyes were swollen from crying. Her hair, usually arranged with meticulous care, had come loose around her face. Her dress was wrinkled, as though she had thrown it on without a second thought.She looked… Broken.“Mother?” I rose immediately. “What happened?”The moment our eyes met, fresh tears spilled down her cheeks.“Brielle…” Her voice cracked.She rushed toward me and seized both of my hands so tightly they hurt. “You have to help your father.”A chill crawled down my spine. “What happened to Father?”Mother shook her head violently, unable to stop crying. “It’s over…” sh

52. SHE CRIED BUT HE SAID NO

Brielle’s POVThe office was eerily quiet, broken only by the steady scratching of a pen across paper and the occasional rustle of parchment.The warm dinner in my hands suddenly felt insignificant.Artavius sat behind his massive desk with his head bowed, completely consumed by his work. Documents were scattered across nearly every inch of the table, some stacked in uneven piles while others lay open before him, covered in notes and corrections.“Artavius,” I called softly as I approached.He was so engrossed that he did not immediately look up. His pen continued moving for another moment before finally coming to a stop.“Brielle?” Surprise flickered across his face. “What are you doing here?”I gave him a gentle smile and carried the tray toward the low table in front of his desk.“I brought you dinner.” I carefully set it down before taking a seat on the couch. “You should stop working for a while and eat.”Artavius hesitated.His gaze moved from me to the covered dishes, and for a

53. VALCREST'S FUTURE ALPHA

Brielle's POVArtavius looked at me, guilt replacing the anger that had filled his face only moments ago.His gaze drifted to the desk I had been looking at.“It’s not entirely because of him,” he said gently, as though trying to ease the weight I had placed on my shoulders. “Most of it is because Rhea left.”My heart sank.I lowered my eyes, blinking rapidly as fresh tears gathered despite my efforts to hold them back.“My family has done nothing but add to your burdens,” I whispered. “First my sister… and now my father.”My voice trembled.“You already carry the weight of leading the entire Pack, and instead of making your life easier…” I swallowed hard. “We’ve only made it harder.”A tear slipped down my cheek. Before I could wipe it away, Artavius was already beside me.“Brielle…” His voice softened as he cupped my face, brushing away the tear with his thumb. “Don’t cry.”More tears followed despite his touch.“Hey…” he murmured, pulling me gently into his arms. “None of this is y

54. SECRET PLAN

Artavius’s POVThe doors slammed shut behind me as I stormed out of the room, barely containing the fury surging through my veins.The guards stationed outside immediately stepped aside, lowering their heads the moment they felt the anger radiating from me. Not a single one dared meet my eyes.Good.Because I wasn’t sure I could control my temper if anyone tried to stop me.I had no idea what had gotten into Brielle.She had never interfered with Pack affairs before. Never questioned my decisions. When she came to my office, I genuinely believed she was worried about my health.Instead, she had come with her hidden agenda. First, she tried to convince me to reduce the punishment I had given her father. She's trying to influence my own decisions for the Pack. Then, she asked me to stop searching for Rhea.My jaw tightened. She claimed she missed her. She claimed she was worried about her. Yet in the very next breath, she asked me to abandon the search.It doesn't make any sense.Briel

55. ONLY HOPE

Koen’s POVThere were nights when even an Alpha couldn’t outrun his own thoughts and this was one of them.One week.The words echoed relentlessly inside my head, growing heavier with each passing hour.What was I thinking? Why had I promised Sandra only one week?I ran a hand over my head exasperatingly. I should have asked for a month. No… even two weeks would have been better.Seven days was barely enough time to formulate a plan, let alone find a way to cure Rhea, secure allies against Valcrest, and prove that Celestia could stand on its own.The promise had left my mouth before reason had a chance to stop it. Now I was trapped by my own words.I lay motionless, staring at the wooden ceiling above my bed. Moonlight spilled through the window, crawling slowly across the room as the night stretched on.How long had I been lying here? An hour? Two?I had lost count. Every time I closed my eyes, the same question greeted me.What am I supposed to accomplish in one week?I had nothing,

56. STRONGEST INFLUENCE

Brielle’s POVMy eyes widened the moment I entered the dining hall and saw Artavius already seated at the table, waiting for me.He sat alone at the head of the long table, a steaming cup of coffee resting untouched beside him. Morning sunlight streamed through the tall windows behind him, outlining his broad shoulders in gold, but it did nothing to soften the stern expression on his face.I stopped in my tracks. What was he doing here?Our conversation last night had ended badly. Artavius was so furious when he left. After what happened, I thought he's going to avoid me completely.Yet here he is the following morning joining me for a breakfast. Should I be worried? Somehow, his presence only unsettled me more than his basence would have. Artavius had barely joined me for meals lately. Ever since he became Alpha, he seemed to spend nearly every waking hour buried in work, rarely leaving his office unless his duties demanded it.So when his gaze lifted and a smile appeared on his fa

57. INFERTILE

Brielle’s POVLeomar was now the Pack’s Gamma, while my father had been demoted to serve as his assistant.The announcement spread through Valcrest faster than wildfire.By the time I returned to my chambers, the corridors were already alive with hushed conversations. Servants lowered their voices whenever I passed, but I could still feel their curious gazes following me.The omegas assigned to serve me were gathered outside my doors. The moment they saw me approaching, relief and worry crossed their faces, and they hurried toward me.“Luna,” one of them greeted breathlessly.She swallowed hard, glancing nervously toward the closed doors behind her. “Your parents are inside. They’ve been waiting for you.”Her hands twisted anxiously in front of her. “I tried to stop them from entering while you weren’t here, but they wouldn’t listen. They forced their way inside.”My jaw tightened. Just because they were my parents, they believed they had the right to barge into my chambers whenever

58. FAMILY OF VILLAINS

Winter's POVA bitter laugh escaped my lips. “And now you intend to use this to destroy my life?”I lifted my chin and met their gazes without flinching. “Go ahead,” I challenged them. “Tell Artavius everything.”Mother’s expression tightened, but I continued before she could interrupt.“Do you honestly believe he will reward you for betraying me? Do you think he will restore Father’s title out of gratitude?”I gave another humorless laugh. “He will not make Father Gamma again. He will only realize that both of you knew the truth and helped me deceive him.”My eyes moved between them. “If I fall, you fall with me. You are not threatening only me. You are threatening everything our family has gained.”“Exactly. Now you understand!” Mother replied, her expression settling into grim satisfaction. “We are not here to blackmail you. We told you what we know so you would understand that the three of us are bound by the same secret.”She stepped closer. “As you said, we all have too much to

59. TRAINING PROGRESS

Rhea’s POVA faint smile tugged at my lips as I watched the warriors move through their drills.They had come a long way.Before I took over their training, half of them could barely maintain formation through a single exercise. Now, they moved as though they shared the same heartbeat, each warrior instinctively covering another’s blind spot before an opening could be exploited.They were dedicated, disciplined, and eager to improve. All I had done was recognize the potential already within them and push them until they learned how to use it.Watching them now brought back memories of Valcrest.I had trained its warriors in much the same way. I had watched them struggle, improve, and eventually become one of the strongest fighting forces among the Packs.Seeing that same transformation unfolding here in Celestia stirred something familiar inside me.It reminded me why I had chosen this path in the first place.Not to become Luna.Not to stand beside an Alpha.But to shape warriors str

60. HOME AT LAST

Rhea's POV“Where are you taking me?” I asked as Koen led me farther down a quiet woodland path.The sounds of the training grounds gradually faded behind us, replaced by birdsong and the gentle rustling of leaves overhead.Koen glanced back at me, a grin tugging at the corners of his lips. “Just trust me.”I narrowed my eyes at him. "You did not answer my question."“I will in a minute. We are almost there."The path curved around a grove of towering pines before opening into a peaceful clearing.I stopped on my tracks.Nestled at its center stood a modest stone cottage. It wasn’t grand like the Alpha’s manor, nor was it meant to be.A small wooden porch overlooked a garden where freshly planted wildflowers swayed in the breeze. A stone pathway led to the front door, while a narrow stream flowed quietly behind the cottage, disappearing into the forest beyond. Young fruit trees lined the edge of the property, their leaves dancing beneath the afternoon sun.Everything about the place f
