Chapter: AM I INTERRUPTING SOMETHING?Cleo's POV The first light of dawn filtered into the room, faint and cold, casting a pale glow across the bed. I stirred, my body stiff with lingering tension, and reached out instinctively. My hand met the cold, empty sheets beside me, and my heart sank. Russo wasn’t there. I sat up, the silence in the room oppressive. Swinging my legs over the edge of the bed, I forced myself to go through my morning routine on autopilot; washing my face, brushing my teeth and trying to ignore the ache in my chest. The sunlight streaming through the windows mocked the chill in my chest. It was the weekend, a day I used to look forward to spending with Russo, but given that he didn't wake me up from sleep, he should probably be at the gym. Maybe he’d come back to his senses and apologize, or maybe offering the kind of explanation I longed for after sweating out all of Isabelle's manipulations. I headed downstairs, trying to push away the gnawing unease that had settled in my stomach. Maybe I’m o

Chapter: I'M SORRY CLEOCleo's POV Before I could process what was happening, he was off the bed, pulling away from me without a second glance. The warmth of his touch, the intensity of the moment, vanished as if it had never been there. I was left trembling, the cold air biting at my skin where his warmth had been just moments before. “Russo? What’s wrong?” I asked, but he was already out the door. He rushed out of the room, not even bothering to throw on a shirt, leaving me lying there in the dark. I heard him call her name again, his voice thick with concern as he disappeared down the hallway. Russo, where are you going?” I called out, trying to mask the frustration in my voice. My body was still humming with need, but I forced my legs together, willing the tension to ebb away. He didn’t answer. I bit my lower lip, the lingering warmth between my thighs rapidly cooling into a hollow ache. For a moment, I just lay there, paralyzed by a mix of emotions, confusion, anger, hurt. The remnants of pl

Chapter: ISABELLECleo's POV I forced another smile as Isabelle belched in my face, her breath reeking of alcohol. My stomach turned, and I had to fight the urge to step back. “Let’s go upstairs,” Russo said quickly, grabbing Isabelle’s arm. He looked at me, his expression almost pleading. “You don’t mind me guiding her upstairs, do you? She’s really drunk, you know.” He didn’t even wait for my response, just turned and put his arm around Isabelle again, guiding her toward the entrance of his building. I stood there, watching them. A thousand words tangled in my throat, but none of them would come out. I didn't suffer any grievances? This woman clearly knew who I was, before Russo could even introduce me. So, how come I never heard anything about her for once in the past six months? Fighting the lump in my throat, I grabbed my broken suitcase and trudged after them, my mind reeling. In the elevator, I finally found my voice. “I’ve been trying to reach you for days,” I said, forcing myself to look

Chapter: THE ENDCleo's POV Russo raised an eyebrow, curiosity flickering in his expression. “Where exactly?”I couldn’t help but smile, a sense of freedom bubbling up inside me. “To my parents’ grave.”His expression softened, the lines of uncertainty easing away. “Then let’s go.”We stepped outside, the cool air embracing us as we made our way to the car. The world felt different now, lighter somehow, as though the burdens of my past were finally loosening their grip. I climbed into the passenger seat, and he turned to me, a flicker of admiration in his eyes.“You’re brave, Cleo. Facing the past like this.”I shrugged, feeling a mix of pride and vulnerability. “It’s time to make things right and to honor them properly.”The drive to the cemetery was filled with a comfortable silence, each passing moment allowing me to gather my thoughts. As we arrived, I glanced out the window at the sprawling grounds, the rows of gravestones standing like sentinels in the soft afternoon light.“Here we are,” I sai

Chapter: WHAT NEXTShe flinched, unable to meet my gaze as the truth unraveled before us both, heavy and undeniable. For a moment, a flicker of remorse crossed her face, but it was gone just as quickly, replaced by the twisted self-justification that had driven her all along."Cleo, you don’t understand," she hissed, her voice wavering. "I did it for survival. You don’t know the pressure, the weight of everything I had to endure. Your father was... useless to me. I needed control, or we’d have been left with nothing."My hands clenched, the anger simmering hotter than ever. "So you took everything from him and from me just to save yourself?"She bit her lip, struggling to hold onto her composure, but she was visibly cracking. "I… I did what I thought was best. I didn’t mean for it to go this far," she murmured, the hint of vulnerability almost pitiful if it weren’t for the years of pain she’d caused me.Russo stepped closer, his presence casting a shadow over her. "And Ella?" he asked sharply, his tone

Chapter: ARGON After the scene at the pack house, I knew I couldn’t let this slide. The thought of my father, Alpha Grant, taking Hailey, my mate and my ex-wife as his Luna twisted something deep inside me. This wasn’t just about pride or territory; it was personal. Hailey was mine she belonged with me, not him. The idea of her ruling over me was unthinkable. I wouldn’t sit by and watch this happen. That evening, I called an emergency meeting with the elders. As they gathered, I felt the weight of their expectant gazes on me. Some looked puzzled, others concerned, but I saw no sign of approval in any of their eyes. Good. At least I wasn’t the only one who saw this situation for what it was. I gestured for them to sit while I took a deep breath, pushing down the anger that burned beneath my skin. I had to stay focused. “Good evening, elders,” I began, my voice cold and resolute. “I’ve called you here because there’s a fire burning beneath our feet, and we cannot ignore it any longer. My father

Chapter: HAILEYDespite the fear that rippled through the pack, there was an underlying respect for the Alpha King. His name alone was enough to silence conversations, to halt the beating of hearts. He embodied power, justice, and an unspoken mystique. Rarely seen, his face was known only to a select few advisors, bound by an oath of secrecy that was unbreakable. The law that governed them was simple: speak of him, and both you and your family would face execution. The Alpha King had become more than a leader; he was a myth, an enigma, a figure whose very existence both terrified and fascinated. Whispers of him painted a picture of a man wrapped in mystery. Some said he always wore a hat and mask that concealed his face completely, leaving only his commanding aura to define him. Others spoke of his rare visits, describing a tall, imposing figure who exuded an almost otherworldly presence. They spoke of a fragrance that followed him, a scent so unique that it demanded attention, respect, and submiss

Chapter: HAILEY“Elara,” he greeted, his voice smooth, though there was a hint of surprise. “I didn’t expect to see you here today, I hope all is well?” Elara inclined her head respectfully. “Alpha Grant,” she said, with a touch of warmth. “Hailey has requested to learn the Luna protocols. I thought it best she understand the responsibility.” Alpha Grant’s eyes shifted to me, a faint smirk tugging at his lips. “I see,” he said, his tone curious. “Can I have a quick word with you, Hailey” I excused myself as he led me towards his room. “What exactly are you doing, Hailey?” he asked, his voice low, though there was a hint of a smile playing at the corners of his mouth. I met his gaze evenly, choosing my words carefully. “Just preparing for what’s to come,” I replied. “Ava made her intentions quite clear, and I intend to be ready.” He raised an eyebrow. “Ava?” “Yes, she plans to make Argon the Alpha before the Alpha King arrives, rallying the pack members against you to secure her position a

Chapter: HAILEY The weight of Ava’s words lingered in my mind, gnawing at me with an unsettling persistence. The Alpha King’s visitation was only days away, and Wolf Shade, my pack, was the last stop on his tour. This would be more than just another event; it could shatter the fragile peace that had settled over us and shift the entire pack dynamic. I rose from the bed, feeling the cold air of the room against my skin as I wrapped my arms around myself. Outside, the grounds were quiet, eerily so. Except for Alpha Grant, who crossed the courtyard with a cold, distant expression, walking past Argon as if he were invisible. He didn’t even spare him a glance as he slid into his car without a word, disappearing into the distance. Argon stood frozen in the same spot, fists clenched, his body radiating frustration. Ava, as expected, appeared at his side, linking her arm through his with a possessive, almost smug gesture. She whispered something in his ear, and together they walked off, heads held high.

Chapter: HAILEYHailey’s POV I snuggled under the thick, warm duvet, feeling the faint thrill of solitude as I flipped through the novel I’d borrowed a few days ago from Alpha Grant’s study. His collection was impressive, filled with volumes I could lose myself in for hours. As I flipped through the pages, immersed in the novel with the thought of Argon’s drama at the back of my mind, my peace was short lived. Without warning, the door burst open, and there stood Ava, looking like a storm ready to wreak havoc. Her gaze met mine with such disdain that it felt like she was peering into my soul just to find reasons to hate me. She didn’t waste a second before hurling accusations, her words slicing through the quiet like a blade. “I never knew you'd be this shameless, Hailey” she spat, her voice laced with venom. “Coveting your ex-husband’s father? Really, Hailey? Lusting after your father-in-law now? Does that even make any sense?” I raised an eyebrow, unfazed by her fury. “Did you say good morning?

Chapter: ARGONI stood frozen, grappling with a mixture of fury and disbelief. How could she do that to her own sister? But then, before I could utter a single word, I caught sight of Alpha Grant descending the stairs. His gaze was unreadable as he watched us, his calm only fueling the fire within me.Hailey walked past me with her mat tucked under her arm, her eyes gleaming with a confidence that stoked my anger even further. She held her head high, sparing me one last hideous look before turning toward my father.“I’ll go in first,” she said quietly, stepping past him without another glance my way.I clenched my fists, feeling every emotion swirl into a chaotic storm. Watching her walk away so calmly, as if this whole scene hadn’t affected her, only deepened my sense of betrayal. And my father stood there, unmoved. I could feel his gaze on me, quiet yet unyielding, as though he’d already decided exactly what he’d say and how he’d dismiss me.Finally, I couldn’t take the silence. “How could you, fa
