Olivia's POV

The news slammed into me like a rogue alpha at a mating ceremony.

It was unexpected, leaving me breathless with a kind of anger I hadn't known I possessed. Declan wasn't dead. The silver and wolfsbane hadn't done their job. My carefully laid plans had failed.

A feral growl ripped from my throat, a sound more suited to a cornered wolf than a lady of my caliber. But refinement was a flimsy excuse these days, barely concealing the hunger for vengeance that dwelt at my insides.

For years, I'd nursed my resentment. Now, the truth sat on my tongue. It was a bitter pill refusing to be swallowed. He was alive, and the pack, no doubt, was celebrating their golden boy's return. The very thought of their smug faces infuriated me.

They wouldn't celebrate for long.

I wasn't the only one who felt the sting of their rejection. Others, who had been belittled also harbored their own grudges. I'd found them and fanned the flames of their resentment into a full-blown inferno.

    Chapter 77Declan’s POVAs I carefully unfolded the letter Caden had thrust into my hands, I felt a knot of anticipation tighten in my stomach. But as the paper lay in my hands, it became clear that there was nothing written on it. It was blank. My brow furrowed in confusion as I glanced up at Caden, who stood nervously shifting from foot to foot.“What is this, Caden?” I asked, my voice edged with frustration. “A prank?”Caden shook his head vigorously, his eyes wide with bewilderment. “I don’t know, Declan. When those rogues caught up to me, one of them demanded that I give this letter to you. There was nothing else, just the envelope.”My mind raced as I tried to make sense of the situation. The rogues had been a thorn in our side for months now, their attacks growing bolder and more frequent. But we had never been able to uncover who was behind them or what they wanted. This empty letter felt like a mocking message, a taunt from our elusive enemy.“Do you think this is some kind o

We have tried everything possible and there is still no answer forthcoming!” I snapped angrily slamming my fists on the desk.I was angered and frustrated at the unnecessary delay caused merely because I wanted to read through a piece of paper.I needed Information it entitled so badly and that was impossible to do. The language used was very hard to understand and it seemed like it was written in an ancient language or so.This annoyed me because I didn’t have the luxury of time to try out different options one after the other. I started to think it was more of a lie and there was nothing to find out.It seemed Impossible to read it and answers were not forthcoming. I felt stupid and it seemed like I wasted my time on nothing.“This is a dead end. There’s no possible way we can know what’s written here.” I muttered to Caden’s hearing.I was already so annoyed that I planned to give up on it already. This was just a distraction a

I trusted Kendal and she loved me so much and I didn’t think she’d ever betray me.The thought of what Caden said ran through my mind once more. The person sending me these letters has no business with Kendall whatsoever enough to plan to frame her.She was my wife and she was my mate, I told her everything and I trusted her to a fault and this just wasn’t adding up.My heart started pounding at the thought that at the slightest chance, this might be true. It just can’t be! She can’t and she wouldn’t!She was carrying my child and I was supposed to announce her to the whole of the pack in a matter of a few days. I just knew Kendal couldn’t betray me, at least I didn’t want to believe she would.I heard a knock on my door and I ignored it completely.

I said you should throw her into the dungeon. Don’t let anyone get access to her, I’m the only one who can check up on her.” He ordered turning his back on me and walking away.I struggled to get out of the clutches of the guards and I ran to him and held his legs firmly.“Please let us talk about this Declan, let me prove my innocence to you. I’m being framed here, I would never do anything to hurt you. I’ll do anything to prove that to you just don’t let them take me away, I didn’t do anything.” I pleaded as tears fell freely from my eyes.The guards ran to me and dragged me away from his leg.

What are you doing here?” I inquired in shock. The last time he was here things were not this bad.Who told him what happened and how he got in here? Declandidn’t let anyone see me, no one at all so I wasn’t expecting any visitors here especially not him.“Calm down, you can ask one question after the other. Well, I get to walk in and out of every jail ward here. And you’re tough because Declan Made it clear that he doesn’t want anyone here. I just lied that I had his permission.

    Chapter 83Declan’s POVI couldn’t stop thinking about Kendal all day long.I was annoyed and at the same time, I had a strong feeling that I merely overreacted. I felt bad for judging her that quickly even if I’d promised her I’d never leave her.But I still saw no reason why someone she had no relationship with whatsoever would try to implicate her.I sank into my chair and buried my palm and pondered hard on what to do next. Just then the door knob turned and Olivia strolled in.I scoffed at seeing her because now wasn’t the right time for anyone to try and get on my nerves.“What do you want?” I scoffed with a frown plastered on my face.“What do you mean what do I want? I saw the frown on your face and I wanted to check up on you. I don’t think that’s a bad thing to do.” She whimpered with a fake countenance plastered on her face.I wasn’t even in the mood for any of this to be frank. I was perplexed and I was too tired to even reply to anything she was saying.I knew she was tr

The air was filled with laughter and music as we ate and drank, the scent of roasted meat and spiced wine mingling in the air.Around the fire, our pack members shared tales of bravery and triumph, their voices raised in joyful celebration.

    Chapter 149Declan’s POVAs the excitement and rejoicing of our victory began to fade, I knew there was still one matter that needed to be addressed. I gathered everyone in the camp, their eyes fixed on me with a mixture of anticipation and apprehension.“Friends,” I began, my voice carrying across the clearing, “we have emerged victorious from this battle. But there is still one question that remains unanswered: what should we do with him?” I asked, pointing to my father-in-law bounded in chains.A murmur of voices erupted from the crowd. Some called for mercy, while others demanded justice. But as I looked around, I could see the steely determination in their eyes. They knew as well as I did that Kendall’s father was a threat that could not be ignored.Turning to Kendall, I sought her counsel, knowing that her opinion held weight among our people. “Kendall,” I said, my voice gentle yet firm, “what do you think we should do?”Kendall’s gaze was steady as she met mine, her expression

    Chapter 148Declan’s POVAs the battle raged around us, I caught sight of Kendall’s mother among the chaos. My heart skipped a beat at the sight of her, a sense of dread flooding through me.What could she be doing here? I asked myself. Before I could approach her, she met my gaze with an expression. She approached me, her eyes filled with a fierce determination.“I can help weaken them,” she said, her voice steady. “But I need your men to attack fiercely when the time is right.”I nodded, understanding the gravity of her words. Even though she appeared weak and powerless, Kendall’s mother was a force to be reckoned with, her unique blend of werewolf and witch abilities giving her a power unlike any other.As she began her chants, I watched in awe as the magic began to take effect. The rogues fell to the ground, their movements sluggish and uncoordinated. The rest of our warriors seemed strengthened by the rogues’ weakness, their attacks more focused and precise.With a renewed sense

    Chapter 147Kendall’s POVI sat in the small tent, my heart heavy with worry and fear for Declan and the men at war. The sounds of battle echoed in the distance, every sound sending shivers down my spine.As I prayed for their safety, a wounded warrior stumbled into the tent, his face pale and painted with blood. He gasped for breath, his words tumbling out in a rush.“We’re losing,” he said, his voice trembling with fear. “Your father… he’s using the rogues. They’re tearing through our men like… like nothing I’ve ever seen.”My heart sank at his words, a cold knot of dread forming in the pit of my stomach. I knew what it meant if my father succeeded in taking over our pack. We would become slaves, forced to bend to his will or face the consequences.The others in the tent looked at each other with wide eyes, the weight of the news sinking in. We were facing a force unlike anything any of us had ever encountered before, and the possibility of defeat seemed all too real now.But even i

    Chapter 146Kendall’s POVOver the next hours, the palace courtyard buzzed with the energy of warriors readying themselves for battle. Guns were loaded , swords sharpened, and strategies were whispered among the ranks.Declan had ordered all women to stay back, to tend to the wounded who might make it back, but I had no intention of staying behind.Declan stood before me, his eyes filled with worry. “Kendall, you need to stay back with the others. It’s not safe for you and the baby to be out there.”I shook my head. “I can’t do that, Declan. These are my people. I can’t just sit back and watch them suffer the consequences of my father’s actions.”His face hardened with frustration. “It’s not just about them. It’s about you and our child. I can’t lose you, Kendall.”“I understand that, but if there’s going to be a war, I need to be there. I need to try and save as many people as I can. I’ve known these people all my life. I can’t abandon them now.”Declan sighed, running a hand through

Kendall and I couldn’t shake the horror of the things we saw, along with knowing that my best friend had been working with the enemy all along.We sat in the guest room given to us. Kendall’s eyes reflected my worry, her presence both a comforting and a reminder of the gravity of our situation.I had always relied on Caden, counted on him to have my back, and now that foundation had been destroyed by his greed and betrayal. I suspected Kendall’s father promised him control over my pack in exchange for his alliance.“I can’t believe it,” Kendall whispered softly. “How could he do this to you? To the pack?”I shook my head, the anger and hurt boiling within me. “I don’t know, Kendall. I thought I knew him, trusted him with everything. But now…”“I trusted him too, I sincerely thought he was my friend.” Kendall chimed in.My voice trailed off as I clenched my fists, trying to contain

    Chapter 144Declan’s POVMy mind raced as the gravity of what we’d uncovered settled in. Turning humans into Lycans and placing them under his control—Kendall’s father was trying to resurrect an ancient power for his own gain. The implications were deadly.Just as we were about to leave, we heard footsteps through the corridor. We exchanged a panicked glance and quickly sought cover behind a large machine. The outside door creaked open, and my heart nearly stopped when Kendall’s father walked in.“Stay quiet,” I whispered, barely moving my lips. Kendall nodded, her face pale with fear.We peered through the gaps in the factory, watching as her father surveyed the lab with his men. He moved with a confidence that showed his confidence in the security of this place. He approached the table we had been examining and began rifling through the papers, humming to himself.“He has no idea we’re here,” Kendall mouthed, her eyes wide. I nodded, grateful we had locked the door when we entered.

    Chapter 143Kendall’s POVThe atmosphere of the basement was thick with dust too, and the echo of our footsteps was the only sound in the emptiness.It looked like a factory, with machines and equipment, more sophisticated than the ones we saw above, spread around.“This place is huge,” I murmured almost to myself. “It feels like we’re in the wrong place.”Declan’s brow furrowed as he scanned the room. “We might not be. The spy said this was the place. We need to figure out what is going on here.”I couldn’t shake the feeling that we might have been led into a trap. “What if he set us up, Declan? What if my father knew we were coming and had the spy mislead us?”Declan shook his head, his eyes sharp and focused. “I don’t think so. I can sense something. There’s more to this place than meets the eye.”I nodded, trusting his instincts. We began to search through the factory, moving cautiously through the huge space.As we moved deeper, I noticed a section of the floor that looked differ
