The news of Isabella's pregnancy reached me through the insidious whispers of the maids, their mocking tones slicing through the air like an unseen dagger. The revelation struck me with an unexpected force, a blend of hurt and betrayal settling in the pit of my stomach. How could my mates, Dominico and Zavier, keep such a significant development from me? As the realization dawned, I decided to confront Isabella, seeking answers to the questions that threatened to unravel the fragile threads of trust.

The castle corridors echoed with the soft padding of my footsteps as I made my way to Isabella's chambers. The flickering torches cast shadows that seemed to dance along the walls, mirroring the tumultuous emotions that churned within me. Isabella's door loomed ahead, and I took a steadying breath before knocking.

    The next day dawned with an air of anticipation that hung over the castle like a thick veil. Excitement permeated the corridors, and the usual hustle and bustle seemed amplified. The source of this fervor was palpable—the impending arrival of Isabella's child, the next generation of Alphas.

The maids, once familiar faces in my daily life, moved about with a newfound energy, their conversations laced with excitement about the prospect of an heir.Amidst the celebratory atmosphere, I felt a stark contrast—a gnawing emptiness that seemed to grow with each passing moment. The weight of my status as a slave pressed upon me, exacerbating the ache of exclusion.

    " Strip Now!!"His raging voice evaporated against the noises of werewolves, screaming around the valley. Seraya couldn't see anything except smoke around her pack house, the begging of women, and children's cries. Her ignorance towards his command was only pushing his rage to the edge. No one ever dared to humiliate her in that way. " I said, STRIP!!", the command came with a loud whip on her back, forcing her knees to fall on the ground.Rafe Sullivan Anderson held the chain high, his eyes gleaming in deep rage and hatred toward the woman on the ground. Seraya coughed lightly at the smoke, flaring her nostrils to travel into her stomach. Her tears blurred in tears, her wolf refusing to submit but she figured out that her disobedience would turn everything worse.Her beloved ' The Moon Eyed ' pack was under attack by the most ferocious, cruel pack on earth ' The Night Howlers Pack '. Even if she fought with her all night, she wouldn't be able to save anyone. She clutched the hard so

    || ALEXIS's POV ||" No guards around us today? Are you sure, Mafia Alex?"Elinda teased me with a smile. Although she was indirectly insulting, I could see the little smile on the corner of her lips. She was happy to get a free day.After much confrontation, I wished to give her a day like a normal girl. I replied coldly, concealing any sort of emotions that she tried to notice on my face," Yes! A day that I promised you. Now behave. No one will question you here."She smiled big and walked by my side. It was a pool party, thrown by my old friends here. They didn't know about my business here nor did they recognize her as the Royal Princess.Sammer rushed over to us as soon as he spotted us coming together. He pulled me into a tight hug, teasing after stealing the look of Elinda," And who is this pretty lady? I have never seen you bringing any woman to our party. Who is this lucky girl, huh?"Before I could say something, Elinda replied coldly, leaving a strong gap between our rela

    Eliana stood in the middle of her new art gallery, watching as guests wandered through exhibits with practiced smiles and empty praise. Her soul poured into the work lining the walls, the admiring glances of the visitors felt warm.She noticed how the heads of employees, the guests praised her slightly, addressing her with caution attitude. Something wasn't right.She happened to catch one of her assistants whispering to another before his eyes darted away, having noticed hers. It clicked in the form of lead in her chest. Daniel!She clamped her jaw tight; the last thing she needed was for people to treat her differently because of him. It was suffocating.It was as if it had been called up by her thoughts that the deep rumble of an engine outside made her turn toward the entrance. The moment Daniel stepped in, the room's air shifted. Conversations paused, and glances darted his way before flicking elsewhere, almost as if the people were frightened of even looking at him."Enjoying the

    " I will let you know who can take the lead of our pack. Thank you Grandma for your trust."I accepted the offer after Konstantine gave me support. That guy really had the power on me. Jessica was sobbing in my mother's arms. She blabbered that grandmother didn't give her anything only because she was the adopted child.I shook my head and laughed bitterly. My parents still couldn't trust that Jessica was actually sad for losing the Alpha position. I was tired of their drama and made my way outside. Alex's voice stopped me from going further," Elena, Stop! STOP!!!"I cursed under my breath and stopped to look up at him. He spoke uneasily, his earlier arrogance was gone," Jessica is heartbroken. Considering your rank, you should have passed the position to her willingly."I sneered at his words with disgust," So you think that I should pass my rights to her just because she is miserable? Alex, you have always been a fool. I won't make the same mistake twice."I tried to walk away wh

    * SLAP *I fell on the floor after my father hit me. It was the first time that he raised his hand at me. His shouting resonated all through the room," YOU!! JERK!! I WILL SHOOT YOU!"He tried to snatch the gun from my so-called driver. I wanted to laugh at myself for my stupidity. I trusted the man that my father set me up. Keegan didn't pass the gun immediately. He tried to convince my father, but his deep concerned voice only raised my temper," Sir, you shouldn't act violence. She is still young and has so much to learn. Let her go!"I sneered at his concern. Only if it wasn't for him, I would have gone far away. I pushed my father to do what he wanted," Go on! DO IT! Kill me, Dad. If my mother wasn't an issue on your way, why would I?"My father's eyes darkened in rage within a nanosecond. He raised his hand again to slap me then Keegan interrupted with his words," The press has arrived, Sir. We need to give a valid reason for her missing."Suddenly Dad came back to his senses

    The soft hum of conversation and the clinking of porcelain filled the small café, yet I felt detached from it all. I sat across from Daniel, the man who had come to my rescue not once, but twice. His presence was both reassuring and unsettling, a strange mix of comfort and danger that I couldn’t quite place. I wrapped my hands around the ceramic mug, the warmth seeping into my cold fingers, grounding me in this moment."Thank you, Daniel," I said, my voice barely rising above a whisper. I couldn’t meet his gaze, the intensity of his dark eyes too much to bear. "For saving me. Twice."Daniel’s expression softened, though only slightly. His sharp features remained stoic, but there was a flicker of something—concern, perhaps—in his eyes. "I did what needed to be done," he replied, his tone as calm and controlled as ever. "You don’t need to thank me."The words hung between us, heavy and unspoken truths lingering just beneath the surface. I had so much I wanted to say, questions I wanted

    " Just wear it off, Stella! You can do it."Alenzo encouraged me, patting my shoulder. My last hope of resistance was gone. I thought that Alenzo would save me from ruining my image. But he rather appreciated the idea of Knox. Alenzo continued, eyeing the black swan dress," I believe that this dress is made for you, Stella. Just be natural and wear your dress with confidence."He made it clear that he couldn't go against the wish of Knox Vitalies. Alenzo needed an investor for a long time. After a year of struggle, he finally managed to bug a big check from a big company like Vitalies. I bit down my lips to stop the cursing. I hated Knox's possessive side. If he found out about our other son, I would be doomed.I finally gave up, releasing a long sigh," Okay! I will do it for the company."Alenzo gave a big smile, relief flashing across his face," Thank goodness! My best wishes to you, Stella."I cracked a weak smile.
