The saddest thing about betrayal was it never comes from the enemies, but from those who were close enough to gain one’s trust and loyalty. I understood cheating, understood the betrayal Banyan has gone through, and I understood how hard it punched him in the face, knowing he had been used and lied to. He must have struggled to fight up to his might, to protect his beloved mate and precious friend. It was miserable to feel helpless and weak. I was stunned by the idea the Alpha Mare had in mind. It was doable and smart.

His betrayal wasn’t just emotional; it was a fracture that ran to the core of everything I believed in. And then, the ultimate betrayal—he’d married Aurelia, my stepsister. I saw her face, smiling coldly, her eyes shining with triumph. The wedding, the whispers, the way he’d betrayed me all over again. I watched silently, my heart heavy with pain and disbelief, unable to do anything but witness the fall of everything I’d once held dear. That dark memory lingered like a shadow over my waking mind, a reminder of how far I’d felt from hope.

A traitor in the bloodline weaves a unique agony, one that no outsider's cruelty could ever rival. Their treachery runs deeper, as it is built on the trust and intimacy that only family can possess. The most devastating form of betrayal doesn’t come from an enemy’s malice, but from the heart that once beat alongside your own. It is not just the act of betrayal that stings—it is the memory of who they used to be, the shared moments, the bond that once felt unbreakable. That loss is what truly shatters the soul.

“You remembered what I told you that they kept a low profile, but they were trained before to be a damn good spies. You should not underestimate their skills but you don’t have to worry I have taken care of them already.” “So why now? Why did they surrender so sudden? What did you do?” “Betrayal,” he coldly replied. I could feel the chills on the tone of his voice. “The disgusting part of human nature due to greed,” he continued. “What do you mean, Doom?” “The saddest thing about betrayal is that it never comes from your enemies.” He then turned his gaze on me. “It comes from your most trusted person unexpectedly.” “So one of them betrayed the other?” I clarified.

Alpha King Betrayal has taste. Hard-to-chew, fermented justification. All for the name of love. All for the name of sanity and denying the treacherous act. It doesn’t numb the tongue. Nor the body. It does more than that. Enough dosage of betrayal numbs the heart and mind from functioning its liberty to choose what its morale. What is rational. I felt so betrayed. Never felt so betrayed in my whole life until now. Until I saw what was marked over her delicate skin.

“I am now.” The words ripple outward, immediate and irreversible. “And did you feel betrayed?” I consider the question. “Yes,” I say. “But not just personally.” Her brows knit. “What do you mean?” “I mean betrayal isn’t only about romance,” I say. “It’s about power.

I thought today would be the perfect moment to tell him, to share the good news, to finally fix what had broken between us. Instead, I was met with his shameless betrayal, his cruel humiliation, his merciless disregard. The man I once loved had been warm and dazzling, like light slipping through my fingers—something beautiful, something mine. Now, that same light burned too bright, searing through every fragile hope, reducing my love to nothing but ashes. I wasn’t sure if it was the force of Ethan’s movements shaking the car too violently or if the blood-streaked handprints on the window had caught a passerby’s attention.

Vittoria tried to resist, but they caught on to her fast. "Dante, what do you think you're doing? I haven't done anything wrong!" she screamed, putting up a fight. "Where is Gianni? What have you guys done to him?" A look of betrayal flashed in her eyes. "W-what? You think I've done something to him? I love that boy like a brother!" Yes, she did. That’s why betrayal comes from the people you trust—not from total strangers. "Luca also claimed to love him like a brother. Yet look at what he's done to him. If you won't tell me, I'll make you regret it."

Shane was almost shouting. "Thanks, but no thanks. I could take Ellie out for a stroll in public. Anyone would see she's obviously your kid. There's no need to explain anything. Also, I did nothing last night. So, why would I give an explanation for something non-existent?" I said with a bemused and cold smirk.
