Chapter: Ivonne's timeIvonne’s POVI pressed the phone tighter against my ear, bracing myself. “Mr. Archibald... Grandpa sorry,” I said carefully. “I… I didn’t expect your call.”His voice on the other end was smooth but laced with a cold distance, like every word had been weighed before it left his lips. “No. I imagine you didn’t.”Silence stretched, heavy, until he spoke again. “Your mother. She’s gone.”I froze in the middle of the hallway. My grip on the phone trembled. “H-how do you know…?”“I make it my business to know most of what happens under this family’s roof—and beyond it,” he said flatly. “News travels quickly to me, Ivonne. Especially when it concerns my grandson’s wife.”The bluntness of it all knocked the breath from my chest. “Then… then you know she—”“Yes.” His tone softened, barely. “And I’m… sorry. I mean that. A mother’s death is never easy, no matter the circumstances.”For a moment, I didn’t know what to say. I expected cruelty, judgment, maybe even satisfaction. But pity? An apolo

Chapter: Ivonne's reasoningIvonne's POV I took a deep breath to calm myself because there was a sharp, ugly twist under my ribs that made my heart hurt as I told my story. “After my miscarriage and the sudden appearance of Alison, everything turned. Lincoln was colder. He picked unnecessary fights at dinner and then started giving expensive gifts to Alison right in front of me. They started constantly laughing at me too. They would mock, demean and laugh at me, especially when I asked for help with Mom’s bills. Just yesterday, Alison tore up the first cheque I got right in front of me and Lincoln refused to sign another. They left us waiting until it was too late.” Dr. Charles’s hand hovered above the desk as if he wanted to reach for mine and thought better of it. “This… none of this sounds fair but I still think because your mother loved you so fiercely, She would not have wanted you to be consumed by hate.” “Well She’s gone now!,” I snapped, and the word didn’t have the softness I thought it wo

Chapter: Her storyIvonne's POVI signed the final forms with hands that wouldn’t stop shaking. The paperwork for my mother's cremation felt surreal. It felt like some official cold goodbye stamped to the worst day of my life. Doctor Charles suggested that I wait a few days for a proper funeral but I knew that no one would attend her service so I insisted they move it up immediately. I wanted her gone from the hospital, reduced to something I could carry in my arms, something I could keep close and speak to when the world felt too loud. Ashes didn’t need hospital bills or permission slips. Ashes wouldn’t be humiliated by Lincoln or laughed at by Alison. Her ashes were the only thing that would be mine to care for and love.Dr. Charles walked beside me as they prepared the body. He was gentle, quiet, the type of person who had been around sickness so long he knew how to carry other people’s grief without crushing it. When there was nothing left to do in the chapel, he asked if I would come to his of

Chapter: Ivonne's painIvonne’s POV I clutched the cheque in my hands so tightly that the edges were crumpling. I had finally got the money! I could finally save my mom! I almost couldn't believe it.My heart pounded with hope and desperation all at once. Alison’s handwriting was scrawled across the paper, but I didn’t care. I didn’t care that it came from her, or that her smug little smile when she handed it to me made me want to claw her face off.I also didn't care that she was probably going to try her best to make me pay with my life for this. All that mattered was this cheque, this little piece of paper was my mother’s chance to live. “Thank you, Goddess… thank you…” I whispered under my breath as I ran down the hospital corridors. My heels clacked loudly against the floor, echoing like a heartbeat. “Please let me be on time. Please let her live. Please don’t take her from me yet.” By the time I reached the reception, I was panting, clutching my side. “I—I have it!” I yelled, almost shoving t

Chapter: Alison's chequeIvonne’s POV I rushed to take a shower and threw on the first dress I could find, not even bothering to fix my damp hair. My hands shook as I buttoned it crookedly, but I didn’t care. My chest felt tight with too much panic. Every second wasted was another second my mother was lying in that hospital bed, maybe slipping further away. I rushed down the hall, my steps uneven, my pulse drumming in my ears. All I could think about was the cheque. If I could just get another cheque from Lincoln, then I could run straight to the hospital. That was all that mattered. But when I reached the living room, my body froze. Lincoln was there. He was already awake and already dressed, sitting casually on the sofa with Alison curled up against his side like she belonged there. His arm was draped around her shoulders, his fingers idly brushing through her hair while she giggled at something on his phone screen. The sight made me sick. For a moment, I almost turned back. Almost swallowed t

Chapter: The alpha of LycansIvonne’s POVA scream ripped out of me before I could stop it.It wasn’t one of those soft startled gasps. No, this was a full-on, top-of-my-lungs, horror-movie type scream that could’ve shattered glass. Because the man in my bed, the very naked man lying so casually beside me, wasn’t my husband Lincoln.It was him again.The rude alpha.The one who dragged me out of the pool.The one I never wanted to see again.The one I definitely never wanted in my bed.“What the hell are you doing here?!” I shrieked, scrambling back until I nearly fell off the edge of the mattress.He stirred with a low groan, rubbing his temples like I was nothing but an annoying alarm clock. His voice was gravelly, sleep-rough, but still dripping with irritation.“Do you have to be so damn loud first thing in the morning?”I gaped at him, my whole body trembling. “Loud? You—you’re in my bed! Naked! Why are you in my bed?!”Finally, he opened his eyes, sharp and stormy, narrowing at me with a look that made my s

Chapter: Avery calls James Avery's POV When we stepped back into the courtroom, all eyes turned toward us. The room was still filled with tension, but there was also an air of anticipation. Everyone was waiting to see what would happen next. Us vs Gerald, who would win? Kane didn’t waste any time. He squared his shoulders, exuding confidence as he addressed the council. “As I have said before, Someone is trying to frame me for the attack on the Spring Pack,” he declared, his voice strong and authoritative. “And I will like to remind you all that attacking the Alpha in any way, shape or form is an act of treason, and the punishment for treason is death.” Lord Gerald scoffed, crossing his arms over his chest. “Are you trying to scare us off with the threat of treason? Or perhaps you’re just lying to save your own skin.” Kane’s jaw clenched, and I could see the anger simmering just beneath the surface. Before he could respond, I reached out and touched his arm, calming him with a gentle squeeze. “Th

Chapter: Avery defends her man Avery’s POVEven after Stepping out of the courtroom, I could feel the tension still hanging in the air.That goddamn Gerald was a fucking menace! He had put his mind on getting rid of Kane for good and he was now relentlessly looking for any way to accomplish his selfish goals.It made me furious!My heart was racing from the heated exchange inside, but I had no time to dwell on it as Kane pulled me closer. His hand was firm on my back, grounding me in the moment. I could see the fire in his eyes, not from anger but something else—pride. "You were so incredible in there my love," Kane said, his voice thick with an emotion that always made me weak in the knee s. "The way you defended me... I've never seen you so fierce, so... furious." He chuckled softly, almost in disbelief, and the sound melted some of the tension in my chest. I couldn’t help but smile at him as my own heart started swelling with pride at his words. “Well, I wasn’t going to let Gerald accuse you of something yo

Chapter: Gerald is a threat Author’s note: Hii, thank you so much for reading so far, I’ll really love to continue this book and extend it, but that’ll only happen if you leave a comment asking me to extend it. Avery’s POV “What happens if they do?” I asked, but my voice was barely above a whisper. Kane hesitated for a moment before answering, “Dethronement.” And in that moment, I could see that his eyes were filled with a look of utter dread and resignation. The word hung in the air between us, heavy and ominous. If he was found guilty, Kane would lose everything—his title, his people, his entire life. My chest tightened with fear at the thought. I couldn’t let that happen to him “No,” I said firmly, shaking my head. “That’s not going to happen. We’ll fight this, Kane and we'll win. We'll find which ever asshole is behind this, and we'll end THEM. Trust me on this Kane." I begged. He looked at me, his dark eyes searching mine for reassurance. “I love my people yes, but I don't care about losi

Chapter: The court summons Avery’s POV He stepped back to admire his handiwork, his eyes raking over me with a predatory hunger that made my breath hitch. I pulled experimentally at the restraints, but they held firm. I was at his mercy now, and the realization sent a wave of heat straight to my core. “Comfortable?” he asked, his tone mocking as he moved back toward the bed. I gave him a defiant look. “You’re enjoying this too much.” “And you’re enjoying pretending you’re not,” he shot back, climbing onto the bed and positioning himself above me. His hands roamed over my body, lingering on the places he knew drove me crazy, teasing me with just the right amount of pressure to make me squirm. “Maybe I am,” I admitted, my voice breathy as I felt his hands slide lower. “But that doesn’t mean I’m going to make it easy for you.” Kane’s eyes darkened with desire as he leaned in closer, his lips brushing against mine. “Oh, I don’t want easy. I want to see you break my Nuri.” His words sent a delici

Chapter: Frame upAvery’s POV I woke up to Kane’s soft kisses brushing over my skin, gentle and warm, sending shivers down my spine. His lips moved slowly, from my shoulder to my neck, trailing up to my jawline, each kiss making my heart race. A smile crept onto my face before I even opened my eyes, the sensation filling me with a giddy excitement, like we had just discovered our love for the first time. “Kane…” I murmured sleepily, turning to face him. The sight of him, his dark eyes filled with warmth and affection, made me catch my breath. My twin flame. The other half of my soul. It was still hard to believe that the goddess had united us in this way, that our bond went so much deeper than I had ever imagined. “Morning, love,” he whispered, his voice low and husky. “I couldn’t help myself. You were just too tempting.” I laughed softly, brushing my fingers through his hair. “You’re the tempting one.” His gaze grew more intense, and for a moment, I was lost in it, in him. I could feel t

Chapter: An attackKane's POV I couldn’t stop staring at her. Avery. My mate, my Luna, my other half. The idea of twin flames—the two of us being split pieces of the same soul—had taken root in my mind, and now, it was all I could think about. It explained so much: the way my body responded to her, the way my heart had been drawn to her from the very beginning, and the way every single touch of her hand sent warmth coursing through my veins. Her eyes, those brilliant pools of emotion and life, found mine and held them. “Kane…” Her voice was a soft whisper, full of vulnerability and desire. I reached out, brushing a strand of hair away from her face. “Avery,” I murmured, my fingers lingering on her skin. “You’re everything to me.” Her lips curved into a small smile, and I felt my chest tighten with the love I had for her. Knowing that she was my twin flame made everything feel even more intense—like the bond between us had grown stronger, more powerful, more unbreakable. I leaned in, pre

He took them!” She screamed, trying to break free from Alistair’s protective grip."Stop! who took what?" He growled feeling too anxious to let her out of his sight in the middle of this dangerously bloody battle.“Cedric! He took my babies!” she cried and Alistair froze as his blood ran cold, then his eyes suddenly flashed bright deadly gold. He was hungry for blood now.“Stay here! I’ll get them back!”“No! I’m coming with you!” she yelled, following behind as he headed toward the door.“Sera! Don’t be stubborn, I said stay!”“And you would be crazy if you think that I will let you go alone!” She screamed back.Alistair glared at her and she glared right back.“Fine we don’t have time to waste, stay behind me, I’ll protect you.”Sera snorted in annoyance.

Sera glared at him with a heated expression. “If you want to help, you can start by telling me the fucking truth! Tell me why you cheated and lied to me? Tell me why you hurt me again and again! You can start by telling me why you dragged me into this whole mess of a fucked up relationship we have!... If you can’t even do that, then don’t say another fucking word to me!” Another tense silence followed as Alistair hung his head in shame. Sera felt her frustration grow as she watched her arm heal. She should be out there fighting that traitor, not sitting helplessly in a cell with this coward that couldn’t even answer her question. “I was 13.” Alistair mumbled. “What?” Sera snapped irritatedly. “I said I was 1

Your favorite Uncle is here to say hello or rather good bye!”Sera looked up to see Cedric grinning down at them. Alistair was still unconscious so she could guess that he was hit with a much higher dosage of wolfsbane than she was.“You son of a bitch!” She cried while trying to stumble up to her feet and lunge at him.“Ah ah ah! Not too fast angry mama bear, between two of us are highly charged electric bars that are painful enough to shock the foolishness out of your mind if you even dare to touch it.”It was then that Sera looked around to see that they had been locked in a cell underground. Thankfully, they were not tied up, but there was still nothing that they could do with their free hands because of the electric bars between them.She looked up at Cedric’s mocking face and she felt the painful stab of betrayal in her chest.

And Ben called him immediately Alistair started storming his way to see his Uncle. At first, Cedric freaked out because this was not how things were supposed to go. Everything was rushing too fast. According to his plan, Alistair wasn’t supposed to confront him until after Sera and her children were dead, and then CEDRIC would kill him and give the crown to his son Michael.

Chapter: Halfbreed and secrets“Alistair.” She gasped, then she remembered that she was naked and rushed to cover herself. Alistair’s already dark eyes became even darker as his eyes roved her body. She felt her skin tingle at any point that his eyes touched, it was like he was touching her with just his eyes. “Alistair, what are you doing?!” She exclaimed while trying hard to hide her shame. “It’s my bath house, I like to come here sometimes.” He stated matter of factly. Suddenly Sera remembered once, long ago when she first arrived, Grace had told her that he came here sometimes. “But I’ve never seen you here before! Are you following me?” Alistair just shot her a lazy smirk. “I always come here when everyone leaves so it looks like you’re the one following me.” Well Sera couldn’t really argue with that statement so she just stood there, frozen and unsure of what to do. Finally Alistair sighed and looked at her again. “Are you just going to stand there all night or are you gonna get in the water?” Sera he

No cheating on your partner remember?!”“Sera,” Eve warned with clenched teeth. “Step away from my mate.” Sera saw Eve’s eyes glow dangerously and she immediately moved out of the way. There was no way on earth, that she was going to fight off a Lycan who had just seen her mate.

Chapter: His concubines I had not said a word since Alpha Jake burst into the room and caught Alex kissing and fondling my breasts. The intensity in Jakes eyes was overwhelming, it was cold and sinister, yet wild and territorial at the same time. My heart skipped several beats as I watched him glare at his brother, Alex who was just rubbing himself between my legs a minute ago. I could see the murderous fury boiling inside Alpha Jake, and I couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement at the idea of him watching me with a possessive instinct. "What the fuck is going on here?" Jake's deep voice boomed with anger, his powerful presence filling the room. He moved closer, his muscles taut, ready to charge at his brother. Alex stumbled back, trying to come up with an excuse. "Jake, listen, it's not what it looks like. She seduced me, I swear." “That’s a lie.... you molested me in my sleep!”I screeched at him in shock. I turned to look at Jake, who would he believe? Me or his brother? In a flash of a second

It was so luxuriously decorated that I couldn’t stop my jaw from dropping..... Damn! This man was filthy rich!“Brother! You’re back early…… and you brought back something!” From the corner of the house, we watched a tall slim man with an athletic body approach us. He had the prettiest smile I had ever seen on anyone. He had gold eyes too. But with his blonde hair, blue eyes and dimples, he looked like a play boy who easily broke hearts. I’m ashamed to say that my heart fluttered a little when he looked at me.“Yes Alex, this is Cassie, she’s our new slave.” Jake said as Alex walked to stand in front of me. He smelt delicious..

She commanded. I was lifted from the ground and dropped at the back of a black van, before I could gather enough strength to protest, I felt the van speed away. The car drove all through the night and by dawn, I heard the car stop. I was still dizzy but I could hear them talking. “Miss Sar—Sorry —Miss Victoria really got a pretty one this time. I bet selling her as a sex slave would bring us a loooot of money," one of the muscular men said. “I'm not quite sure about that, she very very skinny.

I stood up from the floor quickly so that I could focus all my attention on him. I had to be very vigilant in case there was any homeless person around. If I wasn’t fast enough, I would go to bed hungry again tonight. The waiter opened the bin and dropped the bag of trash in the bin, he closed the bin quickly and wrinkled in disgust at the foul smell coming from the bin. To him it was garbage, but to me, it was a meal. I waited for him to walk back into the restaurant and close the door behind him. then I ran as fast as my skinny legs could carry me and pounced on the bin in a few seconds. I yanked open the bin and was excited to find the trash bag sitting there. I looked left and right to make sure I was truly alone. Because lately I had a feeling like I was constantly being watched. Sometimes I would suddenly feel someone behind me, watching me, but whenever I turned arou

I could hear the shouts and screams of my mother, the sound of glass shattering and wood splintering, and worst of all, the eerie growls of the men with the yellow eyes. "Please don't hurt us! Please!" my mother's voice pleaded. "We warned you to stay out of our territory," a deep, guttural voice replied. I clutched my stuffed animal tightly, trying to block out the horrible sounds. Suddenly, there was a loud thud and my mother's screams grew
