Valtor's gaze pierced through her, his expression filled with anger. Without a word, Valtor reached for the TV remote. The screen came to life, displaying images and videos of Valeria and Karan. Their stolen moments, once hidden, now played out in vivid detail. Valeria's eyes widened in horror. Their secret was exposed. The videos showed their whispers, laughter, and stolen glances. Their love, once pure and private, was now tainted by Valtor's discovery. Valtor turned off the TV, his evil laughter echoing through the room.

"Make-up can hide the true face of most women," Estefan muttered to himself as Dirga disappeared from his sight, his five fingers tracing the surface of a photograph showing the beautiful face of one of his students at school. Estefan didn't know what he would do if that reality came to him. To Be Continued-

On our wedding day, my fiancée and brother died in a tragic crash, and the shock left my mother completely bedridden. Everyone blamed me, saying I brought misfortune and death to everyone around me. However, I didn't even have time to grieve. I worked myself to the bone, hauling concrete at construction sites by day and delivering food by night, just to afford my mother's medical bills. Then came the day I took a side job wearing a mascot suit for a grand opening event. One employee mentioned, "Our boss is super rich and handsome, and his wife is so sweet. Their family is so loving. They even rescue stray cats and dogs all the time!" I stayed quiet, only worried about whether I'd make it

My wolf went completely still inside me. “I know about the lingerie,” she continued. “I’ve known for months. I found the hidden folder on your laptop. The receipts. The videos. I tried to ignore it… but after this weekend, I can’t anymore. I called the factory. They said there was no emergency. You lied to me.” I sat up slowly, still wearing the red lace outfit. Brian watched me silently from the bed. “I’m not angry,” Vera said, though her voice cracked slightly. “I’m just… done. I deserve someone who wants me fully. Not someone who’s secretly becoming someone else behind my back. I’ve already spoken to the pack elders. They’ll support whatever I decide.”

That night, as the lights dimmed and silence returned, Veronica lay awake. Her thoughts refused to settle. She replayed the moment again and again. The voice. Christiana’s tone. The word careful. Her chest tightened. What are you hiding, Christiana…? She turned slightly, glancing across the room. Christiana was lying still. Too still. And Joy… Joy was awake. Eyes open. Staring into the darkness. As if she already knew— That the secret was beginning to crack. And somewhere deep within the convent walls… The truth was no longer safe. Because now… More than one person was starting to see it.

When I saw Garrett's name and photo on the screen, I could not help but feel a wave of panic wash over me. In my nervousness, my body clenched for a moment, which made Leonard gasp despite himself. "You're very tense, Ms. Clarke." Leonard looked at me with a half-smile, but I was terrified. After all, my husband was video calling me while I had another man inside me. I could not let Garrett find out. I tried to grab the phone from Leonard's hand, but he seemed to read my mind and pressed the answer button just before I could reach it.

“if this is your way of starting a fight between me and my sister, then it’s not working.” “Starting a fight?” what does she take me for? I do not want to start a fight, I want to start a war between them. “You know, I have no evidence that you are a part of the murder, but I have every evidence I need against Vera which was why she shared your little secret with me.” Veronica’s eyes narrowed. “and I know that your little secret is enough to send you to jail.” “My little secret?” she is trying so hard not to panic. “What little secret are you talking about? I do not have any secret.” She bit her lower lips. “at least not one that can send me to jail.’”

The note hidden in Serena's champagne glass haunted her throughout the night. Phase Five begins now. She barely got any rest. Restlessly, she paced the room, scrolling through every file she had on the Foundation. Her fingers trembled as she reopened the secret drive hidden within the lining of her custom clutch. Phase Five hadn't appeared in any of the records. It was off-book, without documentation ... and that made it even more terrifying.

“Live grenade? Girl, you’ve been beaten half to death. Don’t talk like you’re—” Vera tilted her head, a faint, terrifying smile playing on her lips. Her voice dropped to a whisper, measured, deadly. “Conosco i segreti di chi credevate intoccabile. E so dove si nasconde il veleno che pensavate sepolto per sempre.” The words hit the room like a shockwave. “I know the secrets of the untouchable. And I know where the poison you thought buried forever hides.” The men froze. The younger one’s hand shook. The scarred leader’s jaw tightened. Whispering erupted—half panic, half disbelief.
