Chapter: Chapter 55“Kaiden.” I screamed as the rogues began to make their way into the cottage. We were outnumbered for sure.The rogues attacked quickly, their movements were fast and furious.Kaiden shifted into battle mode, his fists and claws striking the first rogue that had managed to break into the room. With one slash the rogue was thrown out of the cottage. I stood frozen in shock.I had never seen Kaiden fight, I looked at him admiring his strength and a feeling of relief washed through me. Suddenly I had strength to fight too, I can’t die now, not when I haven’t gotten my revenge on Freya and Damien. I tried to fight too, throwing vials of herbs and anything I could touch at the rogues, but one of them had attacked me out of no where, he managed to land a blow at my side. Pain shot through me, and I gasped, stumbling backward. The edge of my mask tore, slipping halfway down my face. “Amelia!” Kaiden roared, his voice was filled with anger as he raced toward me.“I am fine.” I said quickl

Chapter: Chapter 54Amelia’s Pov “What is it?” I asked, alarmed.Kaiden sniffed the air, his jaw tightening. “Blood, he said grimly. “Human blood.”My heart sank as we followed the scent, the smell of death pulling us closer, goosebumps filled my body, memories that I had tried so hard to forget flooded back into my mind. The sight before us made me grasp in horror. I covered my mouth with my hands.A trail of dead bodies stretched before us, their lifeless forms scattered across the ground. “Who… who did this? I whispered, my voice trembling.Kaiden’s expression darkened as he bent down, inspecting the body of a middle aged man. I stayed behind Kaiden, I couldn’t bring myself to look.Kaiden stood up silently and started inspecting the other bodies. The last body had been sprawled near a sharp drop-off, its pale face turned to the sky. From there, the trail seemed to vanish completely. I paused, scanning the area as confusion set in. “Rouges?” Kaiden said, his voice low. We returned back to the c

Chapter: Chapter 53Damien’s PovIf locking Freya in the dungeon was the price for peace, then so be it. She was loud, insufferable, and incapable of understanding boundaries. At least now, she was silenced. But the quiet that followed her absence was short-lived, interrupted by something else gnawing at the edges of my thoughts. I hadn’t seen Alpha Kaiden or Lady Tatia. At first, I dismissed it, assuming they were simply avoiding me, but as the hours stretched into a full day, their absence became glaringly obvious. Finally, I asked the guards. “They went out,” one of them reported, bowing slightly. “They won’t be back for a few days.” A slow smile spread across my face. “Perfect. I can do whatever I want without their interference.”I made my way to Lady Tatia’s workshop first. The room smelled faintly of herbs and something else, something sharp and medicinal. My eyes scanned the shelves and counters, but everything seemed perfectly ordinary. Nothing suspicious. Undeterred, I moved on to

Chapter: Chapter 52Amelia’s Pov“We’ll be leaving for a few days,” I said, stepping into Lady Bella’s quarters. Lady Bella sat in front of the mirror, carefully combing her hair, her lips curled into a smile, but her eyes were almost lifeless, just enough to tell me she was faking a smile. She paused, her hands freezing in the air. “Leaving?” she asked, her voice laced with false concern. Kaiden stood beside me, his arms crossed, a silent yet commanding presence. I glanced at him briefly, catching his eye, a mischievous smile found its way on my lips. It was time to play a game with the Luna.“Yes,” I said firmly. “We’ll be away for a little while. It’s not permanent.” Lady Bella’s smile faltered. “Where are you going? Why would you leave? Who will tend to Alpha Donovan?” I tilted my head, letting a small smile tug at my lips. “We had a pack before we came here, Lady Bella. Surely you don’t expect us to stay forever.” Her eyes narrowed slightly, her grip tightening on her brush. “But the Al

Chapter: Chapter 51Amelia’s POV “Kaiden,” I said, my voice low as we stepped outside. “What’s happening over there?” In the distance, we saw Damien running, his usually composed demeanor completely shattered. It seemed they weren't done with their argument. Freya trailed behind him, shouting angrily, her voice carrying across the courtyard. “Damien, stop!” she screamed. “You can’t keep running away from this! You started it and you must end it” He spun around abruptly, his face twisted with fury. “You’re unbearable, Freya! Just leave me alone!” The argument escalated quickly, their voices clashing like a storm. Before anyone could intervene, Damien slapped her across the face. The sound echoed in the courtyard, and Freya, not one to back down, retaliated with her own slap. I watched from the sidelines, my heart cold but amused. These two fools were tearing themselves apart, just as I’d hoped. At the edge of the scene, Lady Bella stood in the shadows, her arms crossed and an amused smile p

Chapter: Chapter 50 Amelia’s PovSitting across from Kaiden during our private dinner felt like a small victory. I saw the cracks forming in Damien’s usually composed appearance earlier that day, and I knew I had struck a nerve. That was my plan all along, to unsettle him, to rattle his pride, and to make him seem like an unstable leader in front of his pack. If Damien couldn’t maintain his composure, the pack would see him for what he truly was, weak and fragile. And in this pack, weakness meant failure. I was speaking softly to Kaiden about the next phase of my plan when a loud knock interrupted us. Kaiden’s brow furrowed, and I rose to open the door, only to find Freya standing there, looking frantic and disheveled. “I need something,” Freya said breathlessly as she stepped inside. I arched an eyebrow. “What could you possibly need from me?” “Something to help Damien,” she said quickly, wringing her hands. “He’s restless. He’s losing himself. He hasn’t been the same since...” She trailed o
