Lahat ng Kabanata ng The Alpha Heiress in Disguise: Kabanata 101 - Kabanata 110

After hours of tossing, turning, and cursing under his breath, Nico finally gave up.Sleep refused to come.He had tried everything. Lying on his back. His side. Closing his eyes. Counting breaths. Even forcing himself to stay perfectly still.Nothing worked.Ever since Hellcat had barged into his life, sleep had become impossible without him. It was ridiculous, irritating, and humiliating all at once.Like a child who couldn’t sleep without their favorite blanket.He hated it.He hated even more that it was true.With an irritated growl, he threw the covers aside and climbed out of bed.“I don’t care,” he muttered to himself.The lie lasted barely a second.He cared far too much.Hellcat had gone looking for Liam instead of coming back to the dorm. At first, Nico had been furious. Fine. Let him stay with Liam. He’d prove he didn’t need the annoying redhead hanging around him every waking hour.That had been the plan.Instead…Here he was.Sneaking out after curfew to find him.Pathet

Kieran drew in a slow breath.It sounded less like breathing and more like someone desperately holding himself together.He reached for Nico, his hand stopping just above the redhead’s shoulder before gently trying to ease him away from the motionless body in his arms.Nico only held on tighter.“I can’t…”His voice had been scraped raw.“I can’t let him go.”His arms trembled violently around Daniela.“He’s still warm.”His breathing hitched.“He… he has to be…”“Kai.”Kieran’s voice was barely above a whisper.“Look at him.”Nico refused.Kieran swallowed.“He isn’t breathing.”Nico’s fingers twitched.His pupils quivered like fractured glass.He already knew.He had known the moment he’d touched Daniela’s chest.But grief was cruel.Sometimes the heart demanded to hear the truth spoken aloud before it would surrender to it.Kieran tried again, a little more firmly this time, carefully prying at Nico’s grip.Nico resisted.His jaw locked so tightly that blood seeped where his teeth

“That thing keeps walking deeper into the Hallow wearing Hellcat’s body?”His breathing grew ragged.“No.”He shook his head violently.“No fucking way.”Kieran became strangely quiet.His expression shifted as though weighing a decision he’d sworn never to make.Finally he spoke.“There is one way.”His voice had fallen almost to a whisper.“I can force your body to recover.”Nico frowned.“What are you talking about?”“It’ll heal your wounds.”Kieran’s gaze never left his.“It’ll restore your strength.”He hesitated.“But only temporarily. When the effect ends, your body will crash.”“How bad?”“You’ll sleep for days.”Nico stared at him.“And how exactly do you plan on doing that?”Kieran stepped close enough that the cold radiating from him seeped into Nico’s skin.“My blood.”Nico looked at him as though he’d lost his mind.“What?”“Alexander understood what he was sensing the day we met.”Kieran’s voice became little more than a murmur.“I’m not an ordinary wolf.”Something anci

Power burst across the clearing with such terrifying force that the Hallow came alive.Roots erupted from the earth like the ribs of some ancient beast clawing its way to the surface. Trees groaned as branches splintered beneath invisible pressure, and the ground rolled beneath their feet in slow, violent waves, as though the forest itself had become an ocean under her command.Nico barely had time to plant his feet.A thorned vine cracked through the air.It tore across his flank, ripping fur and flesh alike before hurling him through the dirt. He rolled several times before digging his claws into the earth, carving deep trenches that finally brought him to a stop.Blood dripped steadily onto the soil.His molten-gold eyes never left her.The determination was still there.So was something else.Fear.Not the kind born from doubt, but the ancient, instinctive fear every predator felt when it stood before something infinitely higher on the food chain.The demon moved.Or perhaps she h

“The same… person?”Daniela’s breath caught in her throat.Her knees threatened to give way beneath her as she stared at the reflection, her eyes trembling with disbelief.The same person.The words should have sounded absurd.Instead…They hurt because they almost made sense.Everyone carried darkness inside them. Everyone had a part of themselves they buried where no one else could see.Daniela knew that better than anyone.As a child, whenever joy became too overwhelming or anger burned too fiercely, the pendant around her neck would begin to glow. And every single time it did, she would feel something clawing from deep inside her, desperate to break free.She remembered those moments.She remembered her mother’s frightened eyes.“Control your emotions.”That was the lesson she had lived by.Always.No matter how happy she was.No matter how furious.No matter how terrified.Never lose control.Because if she did……it would wake.Now the pendant was gone.Josephine’s comforting pre
