MAELISThe car ride back from Minister Gabby’s compound felt longer than the journey there because my mind couldn’t stop wandering back to his house.How could someone walk into a house so tightly secured, open a locked drawer, and take the one thing that could destroy a man?Had this been planned from the very beginning?I sat in silence musing over the facts and who could have done this. But each time it felt like I was drawing close to a lead, my mind goes completely blank. A tired sigh escaped my lips as the car came to a stop at the pack house. I stepped out first, and the moment my feet touched the ground, something felt off.The guards at the entrance bowed, but they did it reluctantly and didn’t raise their heads until I passed. I found it strange because they would usually bow, greet me, then raise their heads to see if I had acknowledged them.Not only that, I also noticed two maids carrying laundry baskets. They lowered their heads too quickly and hurried past without the

NERINEI stood at the far corner of the chambers in shock. My hands trembling, and my lips quivering as I stared at the man who was pleading for his life.He was the man I had secretly planted the letter on. How the hell had Maelis found out about it?The hostility that had surrounded her a short while earlier had completely disappeared. The pack members whose faces had been twisted with rage now looked uncertain, while some even looked ashamed.The sight made the knot in my stomach tighten with dread.This was bad. No, this was very bad.Just when I had started enjoying her ashen look, everything had gone down the drain.This hadn't even lasted a full day!My father and I exchanged a brief look, and I saw the same shock written clearly across his face.Neither of us had expected her to turn the entire gathering around so completely, and neither of us had prepared for the possibility that Gabby might actually walk free after everything we had set in motion.When the head of the trial

MAELISI walked back to my room with Theron’s promise still stuck in my head. He had looked me straight in the eyes that morning and said he would help Gabby, and for the first time in a long while, I actually believed him.I thought maybe, just maybe, things could turn out right for once and we could agree on something.Also, it seemed like Nerine’s absence from the pack house had brought some kind of peace. Yes, her leaving had brought me peace.She should stay there for a while… At least three weeks. By the time she returns back, I would have unbound myself from Theron and moved away.“That would be perfect!” I clapped my hands and chuckled before lying on the bed, squealing in glee. A few minutes later, Hura came in with a newspaper in her hands. Her face looked brighter than it had in days.“My lady, you need to see this.” She held it out. “Everyone is talking differently now, and a lot of people are praising you.”I took the paper and looked at the front page. I saw the heading

MAELISI woke up with every part of my body aching, My legs felt heavy, and my hips throbbed. Also, there was a deep soreness between my thighs that made me suck in a sharp breath the moment I tried to move and for a few seconds I just lay there, staring at the ceiling, trying to remember why everything hurt so much.Then the memories of last night rushed back in and reminded me of the way Theron had grabbed me, the angry kiss that turned into something far rougher, and the way he had punished me until I could barely think. Heat crawled up my neck as the images played in my head, and I turned slowly, expecting to see him still in the bed but the other side was empty.Theron had left before I woke up. I sat up carefully, wincing as the movement pulled at my sore muscles. My dress from last night lay torn on the floor, and I gathered it with shaking hands and walked to the bathroom, locking the door behind me.The shower water was warm, but it did nothing to wash away last night's emb

THERONI arrived at Minister Gabby’s courtyard just as the afternoon light began to fade. Black cloth hung over the entrance gates, and his obituary was pasted across the fence and walls.A small tribute book sat at the entrance, where visitors could leave their condolences. The entire courtyard was filled with a heavy silence, the kind that followed a death and the tears that came with it.As soon as I stepped out of the car, I spotted Maelis standing near the front steps, speaking with one of the older women in the family. She noticed me a moment later, and the change in her expression was immediate.The gentleness on her face disappeared. Her brows drew together, and her lips tightened as she looked at me with open disdain.For a brief moment, my mind went back to what had happened between us. I could still remember how she tasted down there. One minute I was filled with rage and the next, I couldn’t wait to be deep inside her. I had only Raph to blame for losing control. If my w
