"The answers you seek lie within those pages." Alpha Dante's hands trembled ever so slightly as he turned to the indicated page. I observed his face closely, my heart racing with anticipation. I knew that the revelation within the book would plant seeds of doubt and uncertainty in his mind, effectively chipping away at his trust in Aurelia. As he delved into the words written on the page, I saw his expression change. Shock washed over his features, followed by a mix of confusion and disbelief. It was working.

She drew back into the shadows. And then—

With Caleb by my side, I felt invincible, as if together we could conquer any obstacle that stood in our way. But even as his reassuring words echoed in my mind, a nagging doubt lingered at the edges of my consciousness. What if this was just the beginning? What if Charles's prank was merely a precursor to something far more sinister? As if sensing my unease, Caleb squeezed my hand, his eyes locking onto mine with unwavering intensity.
