THE LOST ALPHA
I turned to him, my chest tightening.
“Kieran, please,” I whispered. “You have to believe me.”
His jaw clenched.
For a long, painful moment, he said nothing.
Then, finally—
“Take Selina to the dungeons.”
My world shattered.
Before I could react, strong arms grabbed me from behind.
No.
No, no, no.
I thrashed, panic surging through me. “Kieran! You’re making a mistake!”
But his expression was cold. Unmoving.
And Lilith?
She was smiling.
Because she had won.
For now.
But this wasn’t over.
