Alpha Caden’s POV In the dimly lit confines of the cell, I stood facing my doppelganger, his eyes ablaze with a fierce intensity that sent shivers down my spine. There is no denying there is something I share with this man that goes deeper than his hatred for me. His features, once so familiar, were twisted now with rage and malice, a stark contrast to the reflection of myself that I beheld in his visage. His eyes that I could see now with the help of the lights in the cell, were icy blue. Like mine. I had hoped to reason with him, to appeal to whatever shred of humanity still lingered within his soul, but it was clear now that such efforts would be in vain.

I demanded, my voice cold and unwavering, betraying none of the turmoil that raged within me.He sneered, a cruel twist of his lips that spoke volumes of his contempt. His reason for this is still unknown to me and I am curious to know. Why is he trying so hard to kill me when he doesn’t even know? When we could even be brothers?"I am your reflection," he spat, his words laced with venom. "The one you abandoned, the one you left to rot while you lived a life of luxury and privilege."I felt a pang of guilt at his words, a nagging doubt that whispered of truths long buried beneath the veneer of my own self-righteousness. But I pushed it aside, steeling myself for the confrontation that lay

Though his gaze still held a hint of defiance, there was a subtle shift in his posture, a flicker of curiosity that danced behind his eyes.I couldn't suppress a sense of relief at the sight of him, dressed in attire befitting his station rather than the tattered remnants of his former self.

"I don't want to be part of it, do you understand? I want nothing to do with you or whatever this is that you're playing." I ground out as seriously as I could.

Alpha Caden’s POV Sitting across from Caleb, I felt the weight of years of separation pressing down on us, the unspoken distance between us shrinking with each passing moment.

Third Person POVCaden approached Lilian's bedroom with a heavy heart, ready to explain everything to his daughter. The events of the past week had been tumultuous, and he needed her to understand why he hadn’t told her about him and Aurora. But as he reached for the door, something felt off. The door was slightly ajar, and the scent of sweat and sex hung thick in the air.Pushing the door open, Caden’s eyes widened in shock at the sight before him.

Thick and veined, the shaft juts out proudly from his fist. The crown is fat and red, the slit on top glistening with a drop of wetness.His cock is massive, almost intimidating in size. "That look on your face is a bloody nice compliment," he growls. Then he positions himself between her spread thighs, sliding the head up and down through her pussy lips, wetting it.Lilian gasps, managing a breathy, "Condom?""Wasn't planning on having sex today," he says through gritted teeth, staring down into her wide eyes. "Still time to say no, Lilian."She's so turned on, she can barely think. "You said you were clean?""Aye. I promise.""Then fuck me, Caleb. And don't you dare hold anything back. I want everything you have to give me."His grin looks feral. With a s
Third Person POVDelirious, her eyes rolling back in her head, Lilian gasped, “What the hell is happening?” Maybe she is drunk. “Your mate is fingering your gorgeous wet cunt, that’s what,” Caleb growled, his voice dripping with lust.“Goddess! Caleb!” she cried out, her body trembling.“Aye, lass. Say my name just like that when you come,” he breathed, his accent thick and intoxicating.Rocking his hips into her so his erection was pressed right up against her hip, he kissed a path down her neck to her chest, then licked at her cleavage, dipping his tongue into the cleft between her breasts. When she groaned again, he lightly bit down on the swell of one breast.“I need to taste every inch of you,” he whispered, his voice dark and commanding. “I need to bite every perfect part of your skin. I want to fuck you and spank you and make you take my cock down your throat. I want you to tell me every filthy thing you want me to do to you, starting right fucking now.”He pulled his fingers
