Alisha glanced at him as soon as she heard his question.

"Nothing," she replied, shifting her gaze outward once more.

"You're unusually quiet," Alice observed.

He couldn't decipher her thoughts, but her silence, coupled with her distant look, was certainly out of character for Alisha.

It was unsettling for him.

He couldn't pinpoint why he felt this way, given his fondness for silence, but Alisha's silence was different—it made him crave her usual banter, even if it was trivial.

“Let me know if something's wrong.”

He wasn't sure if he could fix it, but fretting over Alisha's thoughts seemed futile.

"I told you, it's nothing. I just want to admire the view; it's beautiful," Alisha remarked.

Though it hadn't been long since she went to college, she already yearned for the carefree days and the comfort of her own orphanage.

At least there, she didn't have someone like Alice constantly in her case.

"You're more stunning, Angel," Alice whispered, inching closer and taking her hand, the moo

    “You like ice cream?” Alisha's disbelief lingered in her tone, her eyes widening at the idea of him indulging in something sweet. He seemed more like the type to recoil at the mere sight of sugar."Can't I enjoy it?" Alice's grin softened as he intertwined his fingers with hers, a playful gesture that left Alisha torn between pulling away and surrendering to the warmth of his touch."You can, but you don't strike me as a sweet tooth," Alisha remarked casually, her gaze flickering between their locked hands."I have a sweet tooth, especially for you. I like you, doesn't it count?" Alice's gaze lingered on her, his words laden with double meaning, that she tasted sweeter than any dessert. She was his slice of heaven, a sanctuary from the bitterness of the world."Like me? Plenty of people like me because I'm a good person," Alisha countered, her eyes rolling as she reflected his compliment with practised ease.Alice couldn't help but smile at her sassiness, admiring her straightforward n

    Alisha watched as Alice brought the ice cream closer to her lips, the melted cream dripping from his hand, staining both their clothes.“Thanks. I can eat myself,” Alisha said, reaching for the ice cream.“Your hand will get dirty, Angel. Just eat, or else I am going to eat it,” Alice teased, daring her to touch his hand.“Okay, as you wish,” Alisha agreed, not wanting to forfeit the ice cream. She took her lips to the treat, savouring the cold sweetness as she licked and took small bites.Alice observed her actions, her hair falling freely over her face. With a gentle touch, he brushed her hair back, holding it back, allowing her to eat comfortably.“Eat. Don't worry,” Alice reassured softly.Alisha took another bite, licking her lips. “You're not eating? Isn't it for you?”“No. You can have it all. The way you asked for it was too sweet, how can I eat it?” Alice replied with a smile, finally taking a bite.“It's dripping,” Alisha observed, noticing the melted cream.Without hesitati

    Alisha felt a cold sensation as a chunk of ice cream filled her mouth, with Alice's breath now fanning over her chin.‘Maybe I should eat the ice cream quickly, so he'll leave,’ Alisha thought to herself, hurriedly shoving the cone into her mouth, leaving Alice holding the lower part.Alice was shocked by how she devoured the whole cone in one go.‘Damn, she's quick. Wonder how she'd manage with something else,’ he thought to himself.“Now move, the ice cream's gone. You can have the rest,” Alisha said, struggling to speak as she tried to eat the massive amount she'd stuffed into her mouth.Some ice cream fell out as she spoke.“You're going to choke if you keep doing that,” Alice said, grabbing her cheeks, getting her mouth opened, and removing the chunks of ice cream.‘Eww,’ Alisha cringed as she swallowed the remaining pieces.The urge to vomit surged in her stomach as she watched him suck the chunks of ice cream he'd removed from her mouth.He clearly had weird habits, from the aw

    Knock. Knock.Alice stirred in his sleep at the sound of knocking on the door. He was usually a light sleeper, or perhaps it was due to his insomnia; he rarely slept longer than four hours.His eyes fell on Alisha, practically clinging to him like a koala bear, her face nestled against his chest, her lips grazing his nipples through his shirt.Alice observed her, noticing how his shirt dwarfed her, revealing her cleavage and thighs, while barely concealing the rest. Half of her backside peeked out from her panties.‘This girl,’ Alice sighed. He had aptly given her the name Angel; even in her sleep, she exuded seductiveness without effort.Exposed like this and sleeping so innocently, it was almost comical how her lips grazed his nipple, reminiscent of a baby seeking milk."Sir."Alice snapped out of his trance at the repeated knock. "What?""Sir, a few people came to meet you," the servant replied from outside, his voice trembling at the sound of Alice's tone.Alice's eyes narrowed, u

    "I don't need to discuss anything, just get me my daughter," Mary retorted, refusing to back down.He literally kidnapped Alisha. Who does he think he is? It's despicable. What is there to talk about?She doesn't understand, and she doesn't want to understand. All she wants is Alisha; everything else is secondary."I said, tone down your voice, old lady. I'm not doing anything to you because my Angel is close to you. But if you direct this attitude towards my mom, I swear..." Alice let his words hang, leaving the threat implied.He believed she would understand the rest on her own. He knew he wouldn't come across as innocent or kind.Mary was startled by his tone and warning. She clenched her fists in anxiety and anger. "I want Alisha," she said, her voice lower this time."Good. But you're not getting her," Alice declared, raising his eyebrows.He was relieved that Mary had lowered her tone. He usually hated disrespect, but yelling or a disrespectful tone of voice pressed his buttons

    Alice, Daisy, and Mary all looked back to see who had just spoken in the middle.Alisha, who was standing at the back, saw Mary with tears in her eyes, which shocked everyone.She had been sleeping but woke up upon hearing the loud voices. She immediately recognized Mary's voice, which made her heart beat rapidly. Without wasting any time, she rushed out, not even caring about her injured feet.Alisha half-ran there and saw Alice literally talking to her mother.Mary looked at Alisha, feeling pain as she saw her sweet, innocent girl.Her eyes examined Alisha, seeing how pale she was, with her feet bandaged, which made her feel sadness.What could she expect from someone who had forced her daughter to come with him? But seeing Alisha's situation, she didn't know how to react.Pain and anger were the only things she wanted to react to, but facing Alice, she knew she couldn't.“Alisha,” Mary spoke as she moved forward.Alice, shocked by Alisha's tears, felt an urge to do something to com

    Alisha opened her eyes, hearing Alice's words. Her eyes were red, tears still dripping from them.She glared at Alice, which truly shocked both Alice and Daisy.Daisy couldn't believe that this was the same Alisha who looked so cute and fragile moments ago.Her eyes weren't just screaming rage; they were screaming power.Alice wasn't shocked by Alisha's glare; he was shocked because this was the same fire he had seen in the office yesterday before Alisha lost consciousness.When she called him ‘Daddy’ and took the lead, it was the same aura.Now it was hard for him to believe that she was the same girl who talked foolishly and seemed so innocent.And then suddenly she behaved like this; it felt like she was possessed.She felt that too, because how could someone change so much, from innocent one moment to something else the next?"What are you looking at, Angel? Don't give me that look," Alice provoked her.He did want to see what she could do; he wanted to see the same girl who drove

    Daisy's eyes widened as she heard Alisha's words, realizing this would be akin to throwing punches at Alice's past.This is a sensitive matter for both her and Alice.Even though she knows it's not wrong for Alisha to say that, because her own son was speaking so terribly.Still, she looked at Alice, who looked like he was about to kill someone.This is a topic no one is allowed to speak about, even though she can't mention her own husband's name in this house.Because Alice hates his father more than anyone could imagine.The hatred is deeply ingrained; she doesn't like or love her husband anymore, but with Alice, it's quite a punishable offense.“Don't speak anymore, Alisha, just don't,” Daisy calmly pleaded, more like begging.She never wanted Alisha to get hurt, and this situation is only leading to pain, of which Daisy is quite sure.Alisha looked at Daisy, who appeared agitated and scared.She didn't know what she said that scared Daisy this much when she never looked this scare

    "Then what about you? Always behaving so high and mighty, you're just a witch, don't forget," Jackson growled, having had enough of this woman. Though he didn't like her from the start when she came to the pack, why was a witch even needed? But then again, she helped with healing and other things, so he let it be.But he hated her whenever their paths crossed."You're angry because you were rejected, and your whole life went to hell after your wife died, and me, just a fucking witch, rejected you as a second chance mate," Lima spat her words venomously.Maya and Alice's eyes widened in shock. Mostly Maya was stunned. Of course, she knew how Jackson lost his wife in the attack, but she never knew that Lima was his second chance mate and had rejected him too.It made sense why she didn't know, because she was away for 18 years, but this whole situation was quite strange. He showed no sign of discomfort while they talked and decided to come here."I don't want a mate like you. I had on

    "What brought you here? Let me have some peace. Didn't I tell you last time that I am now too old to help? Even when I helped before, my powers are still recovering, so find someone else," Lima softly sighed, seeing three familiar faces.It's not like she doesn't want to help, but her old bones can't assist at all. Even though Alisha is a royal heir, that doesn't mean she will put her life at stake. She is here due to a treaty, or else why would a witch live among werewolves?When the attack happened on this pack, she got sent here because Alisha's mother had some witch powers, so she was considered part of the witch side too. She helped them when they needed it, so as Lima came here to help the warriors and to heal others, she had to stay due to the circumstances, and how the pack needed her powers for healing and recovery.Now, she did help by telling about the curse and curing Alisha a bit. That doesn't mean she will keep doing it; she hates sticking her nose into business that isn

    "Come here, sit down. Now tell us what you all found," Levi immediately came with water as soon as Alice, Maya, and Jackson entered.She, Rish, and Alisha were all so eager to know what happened about the whole building scenario.And all three of them were dissatisfied too because they were left behind. Usually, they all went there to train and were very familiar with the area, but today Maya allowed no one other than Alice, who obviously saw the building, so it was necessary for him to go.Elk had some work, so he couldn't go with them or stay at home either."Let us breathe. Why are you so eager?" Maya sighed as they all settled in their seats and took the water."How can we not be eager?" Rish stated. "You all went there without us, of course we are curious, and it's so hard to keep our calm after seeing you all.""That's because it wasn't necessary for so many of us to go there, and we can't just leave one person alone here, even though this house is safe. That doesn't mean I'm no

    "Is this the place where you found the key?" Jackson asked, unsure of what to do next."Yes, this is exactly where I saw the building and got this key," Alice replied. How could he forget? Even in his dreams the previous night, he had seen that damned building and felt the exact same feeling as the moment he stood in that place. Now that they were here, the building was nowhere to be found, just as he had been unable to see it after exiting yesterday. Again, he wanted to dismiss yesterday as a dream, but this key wouldn't let that happen – nor would the vivid, detailed memory ingrained in his head.So it was useless to even try. But what now? There was no building here, and he didn't know what he was meant to do with this key.He brushed his hair back, stress clearly visible on his face. He didn't look panicked, but he was far from comfortable or at peace.This was mostly because of his involvement with the mafia; he rarely felt panic unless his mother or Alisha were somehow harmed

    "I know you've suffered a lot, but that doesn't mean it'll set things straight," Maya said, her wrinkled face showing the weight of her exhaustion and stress. "It doesn't matter, Alisha. When you're in a place where you have to fight, death is unavoidable. Did you think you'd get the Alpha position peacefully?"How could she not be tired? Everything was taking its toll on her mind; she didn't even want to count it all. Finding Alisha had been her first priority, but back then, she hadn't thought deeply about what she'd do next or how things would work out.Now, when she did think about it, it seemed like a far-fetched dream. It was as if she'd only dreamed about the starting point—finding Alisha—and then never dreamed beyond that. And now she was suffering in her success: the attack, Alisha's curse, the pack's new Alpha, and this building mystery. Everything was crushing her.She didn't even know how to mend her relationship with Elk. He'd said he forgave her, but since that day, she

    Alisha sighed, watching him sleep peacefully. She didn't understand why she felt compelled to comfort him and talk with him like this, especially when he had been inches away from forcing her into a situation she would never want.Somehow, she felt guilty because he was here because of her. Maybe he wanted to be here, but that didn't mean she could simply push things aside. He wouldn't have to be here if it weren't for her; he was away from his mother and everyone else, all because of her. So, she couldn't bring herself to deny him some peace.It wasn't that she was particularly good at providing comfort, but she thought he needed someone to rely on. At the dining table, he had looked pale when talking about the building that no one else had seen. She was shocked when he showed the key, knowing that Alice wasn't a paranoid person who would joke about such things.It might have been believable if it were about a place she had never seen, but she had trained on that ground for a whole w

    "Maya, I wanted to ask you something," Alice finally spoke, pushing his dinner around the plate.What happened today—the old building, the key—it had messed with his head. No matter how he tried, the building wasn't there again. As if it was all a dream. But the key in his pocket was solid proof that today was real."Ask," Maya looked up, her gaze sharp.Levi, Rish, Alisha, Jackson, and Elk all turned to Alice, waiting."So I was running on the training grounds today," Alice began, fiddling with his spoon."And?" Maya prompted, confusion lacing her voice."There was... a building," he stumbled over the words, not sure how to explain."What do you mean, 'a building'?" Jackson's eyes narrowed."Yeah, what building? There's nothing out there," Elk added. "Even the pack doesn't use those grounds. That's why we picked it for training.""Maybe you ran too hard," Rish chimed in, swallowing a mouthful of food. "We're out there every day. No buildings in sight."Alice's fingers twitched. How c

    'Why do I always lose my temper and control like this? I was doing fine, but then I ruined everything,' Alice mumbled to himself, regretting his actions with Alisha in the room.It was as if everything had slipped away, and he wasn't in control of his own body. Most of the time, he never regretted what he did with Alisha, but today, what happened in the room felt different—as if someone else was controlling him.The way he wanted to consume her, though she always allured him in a way that made him lose his mind, today was too much.'I need to be in control, or else Alisha will hate me more than she already does,' he reasoned with himself.He'd held his patience for weeks, trying to make Alisha comfortable with him, and again, things went exactly how he didn't want them to.He started running on the training ground they'd been using for a week. The exercise felt refreshing to a certain point; his fuzzy mind began to clear as his legs picked up pace and the soothing air hit his system.

    "I don't want it. Or has my dumbness turned on you and you've caught it whole? Is that why you're unable to hear what I'm saying?" Alisha sneered, not liking even the tiniest attempt to manipulate her like this.And yet, her body was betraying her. She felt a heat crawling up her skin, a readiness to give in that had nothing to do with her will. Maybe it was the mate bond, something she didn't fully understand but couldn't ignore. The effect his touch had on her lately was no joke. But that didn't make it right."You're making this so hard for me. You know that, right?" Alice's voice was crisp and curt as he grabbed her by the neck. Not with too much force, but enough to startle her, enough to make her whole body shake."Ahmmm," Alisha whimpered, his grip on her neck tightening just shy of pain. His chest rubbed against her forehead as he towered over her, a predator watching his prey. His eyes, dark and intent, seemed ready to devour her."Just like that, moan for me," he growled, hi
