All Chapters of Alpha Caspian : Chapter 21 - Chapter 28

LilyThe room became completely silent after David's words. I stared at him, trying to understand what he had just said, but my mind refused to accept it. My father had been investigating me? How could that even be possible when I was only a child? What could there possibly be about me that would make him spend his last days searching for answers?“What do you mean he was investigating me?” I asked, my voice barely above a whisper.David looked at me with something that resembled guilt, but he still didn't answer immediately. Caspian stepped closer to me, his hand finding mine as if he could sense that my legs were about to give up.“Answer her,” Caspian said, his voice low and threatening. David swallowed before looking between us.“Your father discovered something about you when you were very young,” David finally said.“He noticed that your body reacted differently to certain things. You healed faster than other children, and sometimes your wolf would react to things before anyone

LilyThe journey back to Black Smoke felt different from the one that had brought us to the old Anderson property. I had spent most of the ride with my father's letter resting safely inside my bag, my fingers occasionally touching the fabric as if I needed to make sure it was still there. I had spent years believing that my parents had died without leaving anything behind for me, yet now I had their house, my father's handwriting, a photograph, and more questions than I could count. Every answer seemed to open another door, and behind every door waited something that made me question the life I thought I had lived.Caspian sat beside me, unusually quiet as he stared through the windshield. I could tell from the way his jaw tightened every few minutes that he was thinking about the man we had found near the house. He had died before telling us who had sent him, but his final words continued to echo in my mind. The girl was never supposed to survive. I didn't understand why anyone would

LilyThe next morning arrived much faster than I expected. I barely slept because every time I closed my eyes, pieces of my childhood came back to me, but they disappeared before I could understand them. My mother’s voice, my father’s worried expression, the silver crescent charm, and that strange feeling that something had been following my family for years kept playing inside my head.I sat near the window with the charm resting in my palm, staring at it while the morning sunlight touched its surface. It looked completely ordinary again, almost as if it had never glowed in my hands. I turned it over several times before Maya finally spoke inside my mind.“Stop staring at it,” Maya said quietly. “It is not going to explain itself.”“I wish it would,” I replied with a small sigh. “Everything would be easier if someone would simply tell me what is happening.” Maya remained silent for several seconds before she said, “Maybe tomorrow will.”Her words made my stomach tighten. Tomorrow w

LilyBy the time we returned to the pack, the sun had almost disappeared behind the mountains. I was exhausted, but my mind refused to slow down. The stranger's final words kept repeating inside my head, especially the warning about the temple.I walked beside Caspian through the hallway, still holding the silver crescent around my neck. He hadn't said much since we left the forest, and I could tell he was thinking about everything that had happened. But instead of taking me toward the study, he suddenly stopped outside the dining room.“What?” I asked, looking at him.“You haven't eaten properly today,” he said. I frowned. “You brought me back from a dangerous forest and your biggest concern is whether I've eaten?”“Yes,” he replied. “Because apparently you can face mysterious strangers, ancient symbols, and dangerous forests, but you forget to eat.” I couldn't stop myself from laughing.“You sound like an old married man,” I said.Caspian raised an eyebrow. “And you sound like som
