I felt like I was going crazy, holding in the secret about what I found in Damien's room. So, I called Daphne, and soon enough, we were in her room. As I poured out the details of what had happened, her eyes widened in shock.

"Did you tell Damien about this?" she asked, gripping my hands tightly.

"Not yet. He bolted out of the room because he was angry at me."

"Jerk! You told him to stop, and he got angry? And now you found a negative pregnancy test on his desk? There's definitely something going on. You should confront him about it, Katrina."

I nodded, wiping away my tears. "I will."

"Hush, don't cry now. It'll make you ugly." We both burst into laughter, the tension easing just a bit.

To cheer me up, Daphne invited me to a party. She didn't want me moping in her room all night over a boy. When we arrived, I spotted Damien and Caleb, holding their red cups, drinking and laughing at some joke their friend had just told. My heart clenched, but I straightened up, ready to face him.

  • In Love With a Criminal Alpha   Chapter 63

    Archer’s POVThe hospital reeked of antiseptic and bad memories. I hated every second I spent inside those walls, but I had to be here because Alpha Steven told me to.Damien had woken up.Not that I was relieved. No, far from it. I was angry—angrier than I’d ever been in my life. Angry at him, at the mess he’d created, and at the responsibility he’d dumped in my lap.I shoved the door to his room open harder than necessary, the sound making him flinch. Good. He deserved to feel on edge.He deserved to feel worse than that, but for now, I’d settle for making sure he knew exactly where we stood.Damien looked up at me from the hospital bed, his face pale and drawn. The smugness he usually wore was gone, replaced with something close to shame. I wasn’t buying it.“Archer,” he croaked, his voice weak.I stepped inside and closed the door behind me, the quiet click ringing like a gunshot in the

    Katrina’s POVInside my room, I was going to get crazy if I didn’t do something.Archer has finally supported and reunited with his family.I don’t understand what’s happening! And I need to find him!“Lupus, are you here? I call upon you,” I said, trying to keep my voice steady.The wind stirred, rustling the leaves in what sounded suspiciously like a laugh. And then, with a crack of light and a puff of silver smoke, he appeared.“What’s with the dramatic tone, Katrina?” he drawled, yawning wide enough to show his sharp teeth. “You could’ve just said, ‘Hey, Lupus, can you help a girl out?’”I blinked at him, caught completely off guard.Seriously, this monster is funny sometimes.“Lupus, I need your help,” I said in a serious voice.He perked up, his ears twitching. “Oh, here it comes. Let me guess—love trouble?”He

  • In Love With a Criminal Alpha   Chapter 61

    Archer’s POVThe Smith mansion loomed before me like a fortress, its towering walls illuminated by cold, white lights.My chest tightened as I approached the gates, my mind racing with everything that had led me here.I had stepped into the lion’s den willingly, knowing the danger, but I know doing this will stop them from harassing Katrina and her family.I will finish this once and for all, without dragging her.Inside, the air felt heavy, oppressive, as if the mansion itself carried the burden of the family’s sins. Alpha Steven led the way, his broad shoulders stiff with authority.“You’ll abide by what I say from now on,” Steven said, his tone clipped, as he turned to face me in the grand foyer. His eyes gleamed with satisfaction, a predator toying with its prey.I met his gaze, my jaw tight. “I’ll do what you ask, as long as you keep your word and leave the Browns out of this.”His lip

    Katrina’s POVThe gunshot echoed through the night, freezing me in place. My breath caught in my throat as I watched Damien crumple to the ground, blood pooling around him, his own gun slipping from his hand.“Did he… shoot himself instead?” I whispered at myself, my hand clasping in my mouth as I looked at the scene unfolding before my eyes.Immediately, I got out of my car and ran straight towards Archer.My knees nearly gave out, but then I saw Archer—staggering, clutching his side.“Archer!” I screamed, rushing to his side. His hand was pressed against his ribs, and crimson stained his shirt. My heart thundered in my chest.“It’s… just a graze,” he muttered, his voice strained, but his eyes betrayed the pain he was trying to hide.I didn’t care what he said. He was hurt, and I had to get him out of here.***The ride back to our mansion felt like a ticking bomb.

    Archer’s POVThe words hung in the air, sharp and merciless, slicing through the hope I didn’t even realize I’d been holding on to.“What?” I whispered, the word escaping my lips like a ghost.What the fuck did she just say?My chest tightened, my breath catching as if the room had suddenly been drained of oxygen.Felicia leaned forward, sliding a folder across the table. “There’s proof,” she said, her voice barely audible. “The prosecutor, the attorney—they buried it. But it’s all here. It’s been hidden for years.”My hands moved on their own, grabbing the folder. I tore through its contents—documents, photographs, signed affidavits. Every piece of paper was a nail in the coffin of my disbelief.Then I saw it: a photograph of my stepmother, her arms wrapped protectively around Emily.My Emily. My sister.My knees buckled before I even realized what was ha

  • In Love With a Criminal Alpha   Chapter 58

    The air was thick with tension as Archer and I pulled up to the address Caleb had given us—Blackthorn Street, number 48.My stomach churned with unease.The building loomed like a forgotten relic, its paint peeling and windows clouded with grime. It reeked of desperation, a place for people who had nowhere left to run.“This is it,” Archer said, his voice clipped as he swung off his bike.I followed him to the door, my pulse hammering in my ears.Every fiber of me screamed to turn around, to pull him back and tell him this wasn’t the way. But the fire in his eyes kept me moving forward.We climbed the narrow staircase to the second floor, the wood creaking beneath our weight. The door to Damien’s unit was ajar, hanging loose on its hinges.Archer didn’t hesitate. He pushed it open, and the stench hit me like a wave.The room was a mess—a chaotic mix of half-empty bottles, crumpled cigarette packs, and food containers spilling onto the floor.The walls were stained with grime, and the
