Kamrynn's POV

A few days pass uneventfully, and I do my best to keep my head down. I'm busy cleaning the kitchen, scrubbing the countertops, and trying to keep my mind off everything. I’m bent over, scrubbing a stubborn stain, when I feel a presence close by. I look up to see Eloane standing in the doorway, arms crossed, her eyes fixed on me with a look of cold disdain.

“So,” she begins, her voice low and sharp. “Enjoying yourself, are you?”

I straighten up, trying to mask my surprise. “Just doing my work, Eloane.”

Her lip curls. “That’s interesting, considering all the time you seem to have for gossiping about me to the Luna.”

My heart skips a beat, but I quickly force myself to stay calm. “Gossiping? I don’t know what you mean.”

“Oh, don’t play dumb with me,” she snaps, stepping closer. “Rmonica might be too kind-hearted to see through you, but I’m not. You think I don’t know what you’ve been saying behind my back?”

I blink, genuinely taken aback. Rmonica would never betray my conf

  • Escaping From My Ruthless Alpha   Chapter 26

    Calvin's POV It’s been two months since Kamrynn slipped out of the Pack, leaving behind nothing but a memory and the burn of anger that refuses to die. Every day, I send warriors out to track her, pushing them harder, swearing to find her and bring her back. She can’t have gotten far. And when I do find her… she will pay. And I’ll have my pup.But the days grind on with no sign of her. No clues, no trails, just endless emptiness. The frustration gnaws at me, turning everything dark, everything sour. I even snapped at my mother a few days ago, something I’ve never done before. She looked shocked, and though I muttered an apology, the irritation only simmered hotter. Why am I this angry? Without an outlet, it’s like there’s this constant fire beneath my skin, just waiting to tear out.Tonight, I’m done fighting the relentless anger that claws its way through me every waking hour. So, for the first time since Sherelle… I reach for someone else, someone whose face I won’t remember, someo

  • Escaping From My Ruthless Alpha   Chapter 27

    Kamrynn's POV The suspicion has been clawing at me for days. I can’t shake the idea that Rmonica’s health is being sabotaged, and my dreams feel like warnings I’d be a fool to ignore. There’s only one way to find out if I’m right, but it’s risky: I need to get hold of Rmonica’s medication from Eloane’s room and have it tested to see if they're really hypothyroidism medication. If there’s any tampering with her pills, I’ll find it out once and for all.But there’s a problem. Eloane never leaves her room unlocked. I’ve watched her movements over the last few days, and she’s meticulous, always slipping her keys into her pocket like her secrets would spill out if she let them go for even a moment. Every glance over her shoulder, every smirk she sends my way, tells me she’s on high alert. The woman is hiding something. The only way to know for sure is to get those keys.If I’m going to do this, I need a solid plan—and I need her to be completely unaware.After shadowing her for the next t

  • Escaping From My Ruthless Alpha   Chapter 28

    Kamrynn's POV My heart falls to my feet and my stomach twists with anxiety as I try to come up with an excuse.“It's not like that… I was just…” But she quickly cuts me off with the raise of her hand. Her harsh gaze falling on her key still held tightly in my palm.“It seems I underestimated you, you little parasite. Such a curious little thing, aren't you? Even after my warning, you still had the gall to cross me. You even went as far as stealing the key to my room. How bold of you.” She said and leaned closer, her voice a sinister whisper in my ear.“Unfortunately, I'm not the type to forgive. You dug your own grave so I hope you enjoy it because I'm about to bury you myself. I'm going to expose you right now and destroy you in the process. You're going right back to prison.” She chuckled softly and her words went straight to my spine, making my feet suddenly feel my jelly.She snatched the key from my hand before stepping back and clearing her throat softly, preparing to put on a

  • Escaping From My Ruthless Alpha   Chapter 29

    Kamrynn's POV After the close call with Eloane, I make it back to my room and take a deep breath, pressing the small container of pills to my chest. My heart still pounds, adrenaline humming in my veins. I carefully hide the pills in the back of a drawer, tucking them away where they’ll stay safe until I can get them tested.Sitting on my bed, I force myself to think calmly. How can I get these tested without raising suspicion? I need a solid reason to leave the palace. And then, it hits me. My prenatal checkup is coming up soon, and Rmonica had already planned to accompany me. It’s in three days, but if I can just manage to stay under the radar until then, it’ll be the perfect opportunity.For the next three days, I avoid Eloane as much as possible, keeping my head down and sticking to tasks that won’t draw any attention. Each night, I double-check that the pills are still safely tucked away. Every time I see Eloane passing by, I feel the hairs on my neck stand up. I know she’ll try

  • Escaping From My Ruthless Alpha   Chapter 30

    Kamrynn’s POVThe tension in the grand living room is thick as I keep glancing toward the entrance, trying to look like I’m just focused on the cushions, the vases, anything. But every time I look at the door, my heart races. Any minute now, the results should be here. I’ve waited the entire day for this, and it’s my one chance to confirm what Eloane’s really been up to.As I reposition a vase for the third time, I feel a presence behind me. My stomach tightens before I even turn around. Eloane.She narrows her eyes at me, crossing her arms. “What exactly are you doing, Kamrynn?” she asks, her tone sweet but laced with venom. “It’s almost like you’re… waiting for something.”I keep my focus on the vase, ignoring her as best I can. “Just doing my chores, Eloane,” I respond as evenly as possible, hoping she’ll lose interest.“Oh, but I don’t believe that for a second,” she purrs, stepping closer. “You think you’re so clever, don’t you? Sneaking around, watching the door like a little mo

  • Escaping From My Ruthless Alpha   Chapter 31

    Kamrynn’s POVI sit on the edge of my bed, staring at the test results for what feels like hours. The words on the paper blur together, but their meaning is crystal clear: Eloane has been poisoning Rmonica. The Luna has trusted her with everything, and this is how Eloane repaid her.The enormity of the situation makes my head spin. I can’t just sit here and pretend I don’t know the truth. But what am I supposed to do? March up to Rmonica and shove the results in her face?No.I shake my head, the sick feeling in my stomach growing heavier. Eloane would find a way to twist the narrative, to paint me as the liar. She’d probably call me jealous or vengeful, claim I planted the pills or tampered with the results.And even if Rmonica believed me, what then? Eloane is carrying their child. They wouldn’t be able to punish her, not without jeopardizing the pregnancy.I bury my face in my hands, frustration clawing at me. I’m trapped.Later, while helping Tiona clean the dining hall, my though

  • Escaping From My Ruthless Alpha   Chapter 32

    Kamrynn's POV The decision to plant a camera in Eloane’s room wasn’t one I made lightly. Desperate times call for desperate measures, and right now, my desperation outweighed my fear. There was something brewing in the palace, something dark, and I knew Eloane was at the heart of it.I didn’t have the means to pull this off alone, though, and Tiona was the only person I could trust—or at least manipulate into helping.“Tiona,” I said one morning, carefully choosing my tone. “I’m embarrassed to ask, but… could you loan me some money?”Tiona paused mid-bite of her toast, her eyebrows lifting. “Loan? Why? What do you need?”I hesitated, playing up my discomfort. “It’s just… pregnancy essentials. A few personal things I can’t ask the palace for. You know how it is.”Her expression softened. “Of course. How much do you need?”“Not too much,” I said quickly, naming an amount I knew would cover the tiny hidden camera I’d been eyeing in town.She handed me the money without hesitation, and a

  • Escaping From My Ruthless Alpha   Chapter 33

    Kamrynn's POVI pulled the hood of my cloak lower over my face as I trailed Eloane through the dense forest path. My steps were deliberate, silent, though my heart thundered loud enough to make me fear it might betray me. She walked briskly, a small satchel swinging at her side, her head turning occasionally as if she sensed someone nearby. I kept my distance, ducking behind trees and crouching low whenever she glanced back.The hidden location she chose wasn’t far, just past the stream that cut through the northern edge of the Blue Bell Pack's territory. A small clearing appeared as she broke through the brush, and I stopped short, crouching behind a thick tree trunk. The area was secluded, surrounded by towering oaks, and the faint scent of damp moss filled the air.Raelan stepped into view. My chest tightened at the sight of him. His broad shoulders were tense, his arms crossed over his chest as he waited. Even from here, I could see the impatience etched across his face. Eloane em

  • Escaping From My Ruthless Alpha   Side Story 3

    Lysaa's POV A little while later, after we dropped the kids off with Kamrynn (and made sure she knew where we kept the fire extinguishers), Lorien led me outside to the open field behind our home.“Are we walking somewhere?” I asked, curious.“Not exactly,” he said, flashing me a grin.Before I could ask what he meant, he began to shift.Even after all these months, watching Lorien transform into his dragon form was something I never got tired of. One moment, he was standing in front of me, tall and handsome and completely at ease. The next, his body began to change—his skin darkening to a deep crimson as his limbs elongated, his wings unfurling from his back with a soft, leathery rustle. His tail whipped out behind him, and his eyes glowed like molten lava as he completed the shift, towering above me in all his dragon glory.I let out a breath I hadn’t realized I was holding.“Show-off,” I teased, but my voice was a little breathless.Lorien lowered his massive head until it was lev

  • Escaping From My Ruthless Alpha   Side Story 2

    Lysaa's POV No one tells you how hard it is to raise dragon hybrids.Not that there’s a manual for it, anyway. But even if there were, I’m pretty sure it wouldn’t have covered what it felt like to lay five eggs, the agonizing weeks of incubation, and the terrifying wait to see if they’d all hatch safely.I remember every second of it.The clutch arrived just a month after Lorien and I had our mating ceremony. I wasn’t expecting it to happen so fast, and definitely not expecting it to be so… intense. But dragons don’t follow the same rules as wolves. Everything about them—about us—is more. More powerful. More primal. More overwhelming.When the pregnancy first started, I thought it would be like any normal werewolf pregnancy. But then the cravings kicked in. Not the usual stuff like pickles and ice cream. No, I wanted things like rare venison and obsidian crystals, which Lorien had to fly halfway across the continent to find. And the dreams—visions, really—of fire and wings and ancien

  • Escaping From My Ruthless Alpha   Side Story 1

    Kamrynn's POV Seven months had passed since the mating and Luna ceremonies, and life in the Obsidian Pack had transformed in ways I could hardly have imagined. What once had been a struggling, cursed pack with a heavy heart and dark future was now thriving in every possible way.Under Calvin’s leadership—and with a bit of my guidance—the Obsidian Pack had risen to heights we hadn’t dared to dream of. Our lands prospered, businesses flourished, and, perhaps most heartening of all, the pack members had regained hope.Just as I had foreseen, our success hadn’t gone unnoticed. Gifts and tributes arrived regularly from other packs seeking alliances, though Calvin, ever cautious, was selective about who we partnered with. Trust wasn’t something he gave lightly, especially after everything the Obsidian Pack had endured. But there was one alliance we cherished above all others—the Blue Bell Pack.They had become more than allies; they were family. Alpha Orion, Luna Rmonica, even Kyven and Th

  • Escaping From My Ruthless Alpha   Chapter 180

    Kamrynn's POV The crowd erupted in applause and cheers, but all I could hear was Calvin’s heartbeat, pounding in time with mine.As Calvin and I stepped back, my pulse still racing from the intensity of the bond locking into place, Franklin turned to Lorien and Lysaa.“Lorien and Lysaa, please step forward,” he said, his voice steady.Lorien took Lysaa’s hand, guiding her toward the fire. I watched them closely, my heart swelling with happiness for my friend. Lysaa looked breathtaking, her silver gown shimmering in the firelight, and there was a serene confidence in her expression that hadn’t been there before.Lorien, with his long red braid and striking crimson eyes, looked every bit the regal, powerful Draconian prince. But the way he looked at Lysaa—like she was the only thing in the universe that mattered—softened his sharp, otherworldly features.They began their rounds around the fire, each saying their vows and after that, they marked each other, just like we had done.They we

    Kamrynn's POV The heat of the bonfire warmed my skin as Calvin and I stepped closer to it, our hands still clasped together. The flames crackled and leapt, casting golden light over the room, but all I could focus on was him.His green eyes were fixed on me with an intensity that made my breath catch. It was like he could see straight into my soul, and in that moment, I felt completely and utterly his.Franklin’s voice broke through the haze, calm and steady. “In the presence of Selene, the Moon Goddess, we bear witness to the union of Alpha Calvin and Kamrynn, his fated mate. As they walk around the sacred fire, they will make their vows to one another, pledging their love, loyalty, and devotion for all eternity.”Calvin gave me a gentle squeeze, silently asking if I was ready. I nodded, my heart swelling with love and determination.He led me forward, and together, we began our first round around the fire.With each step, the weight of what we were doing settled deeper into my chest

  • Escaping From My Ruthless Alpha   Chapter 178

    Kamrynn’s POVThe day had finally arrived. The day I would become Calvin’s mate and the Luna of the Obsidian Pack. The excitement and nervous energy buzzed under my skin as Amara helped me into my dress, her gentle hands smoothing down the delicate fabric as she adjusted it on my frame.“You’re going to steal the spotlight, Kamrynn,” Amara teased with a grin, stepping back to admire her work.I glanced at my reflection in the mirror and felt my breath catch in my throat. The dress was stunning—a pristine white gown that hugged my figure perfectly, flowing down in soft, elegant waves. Amara had kept my makeup light, just enough to enhance my features, and the way my sky-blue eyes stood out against the subtle shimmer made me feel… beautiful.“Wow,” I whispered, still in awe.“You look like an angel,” Amara said, beaming with pride. “Calvin’s not going to know what hit him.”Across the room, Marlana sat with the twins in her lap. Arabella was dressed in a frilly lavender dress, while Asto

  • Escaping From My Ruthless Alpha   Chapter 177

    Lysaa's POVI whimpered, my body trembling as the eggs continued to fill me. I could feel my belly stretching slightly, a gentle pressure building as my womb accommodated the growing clutch, but it wasn't uncomfortable. If anything, it’s the opposite.The tingling warmth intensified with each pulse, and soon, I was moaning helplessly, lost in the strange, overwhelming pleasure of being filled.“Lorien… it feels… it feels so good…” I panted, my head spinning.He growled softly, his claws grazing my skin in a possessive, almost reverent touch. “That’s my girl,” he whispered. “You’re made for this, love. Made to carry our clutch.”His words made my heart flutter, and I felt tears prick the corners of my eyes. This moment was so intimate, so intense, and I could feel the love and devotion radiating from him through our bond.Finally, after what felt like an eternity, the last egg settled inside me, and Lorien let out a deep, satisfied sigh. His ovipositor pulsed one last time, and then he

    Lysaa's POV His thumb brushed over my clit, a featherlight touch that sent sparks shooting through my body. My breath hitched, and I knew I was already close.“You’re going to come already, aren’t you?” His tone was smug, like he knew exactly how easily he could unravel me—and he did.His fingers worked me faster, thrusting deep while his thumb circled my clit, and that was all it took. My orgasm crashed over me, hard and sudden, and I cried out, my body trembling as waves of pleasure pulsed through me.Before I could fully catch my breath, Lorien pulled his fingers out and grasped my waist, his grip firm as he positioned me exactly where he wanted me.I felt the hot, slick head of his ovipositor press against my entrance, and my breath caught in my throat.The ovipositor was larger than his other cock, thicker and textured with bumps that I knew would feel incredible inside me. I shivered at the thought, my body already aching to be filled.“Relax, love,” Lorien murmured, his voice

    Lysaa's POV His gaze raked over me, and I felt heat explode everywhere his eyes lingered. It was as if he were touching me with his stare alone, and my heart pounded wildly in my chest.“You’re perfect,” he murmured, his voice rough with awe.He reached behind me, his fingers deftly unhooking my bra, and I let it fall away. With just as much ease, he slid my panties down my legs, baring myself completely to him. For a moment, he just stared, his eyes darkening further as he took in every inch of me.The intensity of his gaze made my cheeks heat up, and I crossed my arms over my chest, feeling suddenly self-conscious. “Stop looking at me like that,” I mumbled, my voice barely above a whisper. “It’s embarrassing.”Lorien’s lips curved into a wicked grin. “Like what?” he teased, leaning in so his breath brushed against my ear. “You’re so beautiful, beloved. It would be a crime not to admire the piece of art that you are. I want to burn every piece of you into my memory. Every last one.”
