Author's POV:

“All I care about is that she is getting food inside her stomach and I'm allowing you to do whatever you feel is necessary! Just make sure her stomach isn’t empty, and that there is no possibility for anyone to say that a girl raised in the household of a Beta lacks anything in life just because her mother is not alive, and because I'm so blind that I can't serve justice between both my daughters."

Tessa's jaw was basically hanging open in astonishment and shock, seeing her husband in such rare form.

But the mockery and humiliation of the council meeting had left such deep scars in Orion's mind that he didn't stop, not when he was finally getting the chance to veny out his frustration.

“For so many years, I have handed you the management of my household with complete blind faith, Tessa! So it's about time you fulfill the duties of that role and stop giving me reasons to be upset!”

He paused for a moment, as if giving her the chance to process his words, before picki

    Vienna's POV:Slowly, I peeled my eyes open, struggling against the drowsiness which had injected itself into every cell of my body. There was a dull ache in my head, but a warm, heavy hand rested on my forehead, helping with the pain. Groggy and disoriented, I turned my head slightly to the side, only to find my father’s face hovering near my bedside. The shocking sight made me jolt up in shock, despite the soreness in my body, I pushed myself to sit up, my voice cracking as I stammered, “What happened… I'm– where am I? What happened?” “Nothing, my dear… go easy on yourself.” My father said softly, adjusting the pillows behind me before sitting back in his place. “I’m here to take care of you, okay? Just eat.” He picked up a bowl of lukewarm soup from the bedside table, and brought a spoonful to my lips. I stared at him, unsure whether to obey, or recoil from this demon who had clearly stolen the face and likeness of my father to trick me into some kind of trap. Because at

    Vienna's POV:Apparently, my father had been guessing all my emotions correctly so far, but he couldn't see the look of horror in my eyes. Rather, there was a gleam of satisfaction in his eyes as he confirmed. “Yes, but why do you look so surprised dear? Don't you remember? He is the one who took you to the hospital yesterday.” My mouth fell open, and before I could even form a coherent response, he had moved ahead. “Alpha Blackwood also sent flowers and jewelry as a gift for you, I'll ask one of the maids to show you everything he has sent, later. Before that! The doctor told me how careless you’ve been about your diet, young lady!So, from now on, I will be overseeing your meals, in fact, I’ll take care of everything regarding you. I have been far too lenient for too long, but from now on, everything will be under my strict observation. Do you even know how much you worried me?” Worried him? In spite of myself, I raised my gaze to meet his, as if I would find the answer wri

    Vienna's POV:Asher’s panicked voice reached my ears before I could say anything more than a simple hello. This was something I hadn't heard from him, even after I caught him red handed with Gemini… when there was actually some chance of us being together. Then what was this sudden change all about?And while my thoughts were making me question all his actions, his voice knocked my ear drums once again. “Vi? Are you there?" “Yeah, I'm okay…" This was all he waited for me to speak, before the next words came tumbling out of his mouth. “Oh, I’m so happy, Vi! You know, I thought my soul had been ripped out of me, seeing you knocked out on the floor! I swear on Moon Goddess, I won't be able to survive that scene ever again. Please, Vi, I know things have been rough between us, but don’t punish yourself like this or take your anger out on food ever again, okay? ! I promise, I’ll be here to take care of you. Always.” I listened silently, trying to find the speck of sensibility whic

    Author's POV:Gemini snuck out of Vienna’s room, carefully closing the door behind her without a sound.The frustration of Asher talking to, caring for and giving gifts to Vienna had ignited the fire inside her… and finally, she had managed to tame that fire a little. For now. After all, according to her, she was just doing what Vienna actually deserved. And as a good step sister, Gemini just wanted to give her full contribution in delivering the consequences of her actions to her. She tiptoed down the hallway, her heart pounding with the feeling of adventure in the middle of the night. A satisfied smile tugged at her lips as she muttered under her breath, opening the door to her room, “You must have been thinking that you have somehow won the game, and now you will snatch everything which is actually mine… my father! Asher!!! Then just wait, Vienna, and watch how I play…" With a quiet sigh, she lifted the covers and got under them, finally ready to sleep soundly despite it being

    Author's POV:Asher opened the door and scanned the room briefly, before turning his determined footsteps towards the garment bag lying neatly on the small bench at the foot of her bed. He only let go of Vienna's hand to briskly unzip the bag, his eyes sparkling with eagerness. But as he grabbed the hanger and pulled out the dress, his brows shot up, mouth falling open in shock. The dress… Well, only half of the dress was still clinging to the hanger, and the rest of it had been cut brutally into scraps. Large holes and jagged cut-outs stood out as ugly scars on the delicate pink silk, as if someone had taken a pair of scissors to it in a fit of rage. It was no longer wearable or even fixable in any way, shape or form… at this point, it was barely distinguishable from a random heap of discarded scrap fabric. But no matter how shocked Asher was, Vienna was even more surprised, because she was the one who had seen it last! She had held that dress just last night… then what had ha

    Vienna's POV: I hadn’t lied when I said I had an early submission. Although I was rather desperate for any excuse to leave the miserable company, that much was true. But I wasn’t in any rush to turn in my assignment. What I really wanted to use this time for, was to find Fynn and find out if my gut feeling was right… was he really there, with me at the hospital? Or had I just imagined him there?Whatever it was, I needed to hear it from his own mouth, because my family couldn’t be trusted to tell me the truth, even if Fynn had walked into the hospital room in broad daylight, they would just simply lie to my face and say that it was some sort of shadows of my sins, trying to create hallucinations for me! This was how much I knew them.The first place I checked was the staffroom, but it was empty except for a few professors I didn’t know. The hallways were deserted too, except for a few stragglers heading to their classes as I walked through the corridors, peeking into every open cla

    Vienna's POV:“Hey! Anyone there! Please open the door, I am still inside, don't lock it, the washroom isn't empty…”I called, tugging at the latch. "Hello? I'm inside! Please don't lock the door! Hello? Who is there?" A moment of silence, and then the lights went out as the switch was flipped. “Hello! I'm inside, please don't lock it! Can you hear me!”“Oh, I can hear you loud and clear. No need to shout and make my ears bleed.”My heart sank as I recognized the taunting voice. Gemini. "Gemini? Open the door. What the hell are you high on? I’m locked inside–”"That’s exactly your problem, darling Vienna!”I could practically hear the smile in her voice. “I already know you’re inside, but why would I let you out when I went to all this trouble to lock you in? Rest assured, neither will I tell anyone that you are here nor will I let them find out…”"What are you talking about?!" “Unlike poor, helpless you, I know exactly what’s going on around the campus, but apparently you mi

    Kai's POV: The sharp tringing sound echoed over the car speakers, building up the anticipation until Fynn reached over and pressed a button on the steering wheel, cutting off the call. The sound disappeared, plunging the car into silence again. "I don’t get it…" He muttered under his breath, “Her phone is ringing, but she’s not picking up. It's the third call…" He was chewing on his lip as he manoeuvred the car into the college parking lot, before he broke out into another panicked rambling. "Maybe you should try calling her? We never know, she might answer, I mean I don't know if she even has my number saved or not… actually the more I think, I'm really not sure if she has my number. Probably she isn't picking up, thinking that it's a spam caller or wrong number… but we can't just stop trying, can we?" I placed a hand on his shoulder, patting lightly. The tight lines of his forehead softened slightly, but the worry in his eyes was still evident as ever. "She’ll b

It was so calm, and yet, Zella’s wide, bloodshot eyes flickered past my shoulder. I didn’t even need to turn to know who she was looking at, but the terror in her eyes was clear enough to paint a clear picture in front of my mind. All the hope drained away from her eyes.Because until that moment, she had been assuming that I was Kai. That the twin she was planning on weakening and killing soon, was the one pressing the life from her lungs. While her Fynn, the idiot whom she had drugged, manipulated, and betrayed was the one who eas locked up behind bars, unable to help her.

    Kai's POV:I looked at Zella with skepticism, wondering if this was why she had come here… to stage a rebellion against Alpha Axel? Or was there something more to her plan? I found a pair of soft eyes staring back at me– her answering gaze was filled with longing, which made me more disgusted with her existence than I could have imagined. But still, I didn't let it show on my face. I kept my mask on, this girl was too dangerous to be trusted. She had been watching Fynn closely for almost three years now, and I couldn’t afford a single slip. My act needed to be perfect if I was to convince her that I was my brother, without any questions. I straightened my spine a little more, deliberately letting some rudeness and coldness slip into my voice. “Zella! There is no point in this nonsense now. I already told Axel that I don't have any interest in taking the throne back, and that's the reason he has dumped me in this dungeon! Since you are his Healer, I can't trust you even if I want

    Author's POV:The Oasis Pack's central courtyard watched in silent curiosity as Fynn strode toward Alpha Axel's private chambers. His boots crunched against the gravel path, his posture rigid, his face an unreadable mask. Axel greeted him with a smirk, lounging against the doorway. "Master Fynn!" His voice dripped with false warmth. "Or should I call you Supreme Alpha again?" "Neither," Fynn said flatly. "I have news for you." Axel's grin widened. "Oh? Do share." "Not here." Fynn's gaze flickered toward the servants loitering around nearby. “I need a private audience with you, right now." Axel waved a dismissive hand, signalling for the servants to disperse as he began leading Fynn towards the throne room. The heavy doors shut behind them with a resonant thud, sealing them in the chamber. Fynn didn't waste any time before breaking his silence. "I'm formally declaring that I won't support any further attacks on the Azuremist Pack." Silence. Then Axel burst into lau

    Vienna's POV:A gentle breeze was blowing through the half-open curtains, casting a golden glow over the room. The peaceful atmosphere was shattered as soon as Zeke burst into my room like a tiny hurricane, just like it had become his routine for the past week. He used to rush in ten times a day, always asking the same questions with wide, worried eyes. It had been a week since we returned from the Oasis Pack, and although my hand was still wrapped in thin crepe bandages, it was healing well.“Mama!” Zeke’s arms shot up, and his little knee lifted just as Kai had taught him. Before I could blink, he was on the bed, huddling against my side.I shifted slightly as he clung to my side. His eyes were so full of concern that it made my heart squeeze. “Mama, are you feeling pain?”I pulled him closer, pressing a kiss to his forehead. “No, baby. Mama doesn’t feel any pain when her baby is by her side.” He grinned sweetly, and all his worries disappeared with a single answer of mine, l

No one stopped her, and for good reason. the Oasis Pack's royal healer, her presence was expected here. Especially when all everyone could talk about was the Supreme Luna's absence from the diplomatic pack visits, owing to her ill health.. But she wasn't here for doing anything that was going to help the supreme Luna, to recover or she wasn't in the mood to give anything that could have the potential to cure the supreme Luna in any way.In fact if she could, she would directly inject the poison in her veins, silencing her forever, after all, what she has been doing apart living like a burden on the Earth and being the owner of something that should never belong to her, that is Fynn's heart.But it wasn't going to be so long anyway, so there was no use for getting mad for this, rather it was the perfect oppor

    Fynn's POV:The moment Kai walked out of the house, I collapsed to my knees, the dam inside me shattering completely. The cold compress Kai had used sat discarded on the table, melting slowly, a puddle forming. And just like that, the hot tears spilling from my eyes had melted the mask of coldness that I had been wearing, thinking that this was the only way to protect myself…But today, I could see myself for what I really was: a bruised and broken man who couldn't help but hurt those whom he was meant to cherish the most. Vienna…!An image flashed before my eyes, bleeding onto the floor… and bile surged up my throat. I leaned forward, raising my hands to clutch at my head. These hands… these cursed, guilty hands that had pushed her away without a second thought.The same hands that had once held Vienna closed to me, and the ones that had hurt her… and even this pain was too kind for a monster like me. I deserved far worse. Would she have been okay right now, if I hadn’t acted s

    Author's POV:Kai’s hand, which had been gently wiping the blood from Fynn’s face, abruptly stopped. The damp cloth was hovering above against Fynn's bruised cheekbone as Kai’s expression shifted. His gaze was definitely softer than before, but it still carried an edge of grievance and anguish… flicking over Fynn’s bruised features before he spoke in a low, controlled tone. "You surely can make everything else right, and I know you want to make up for the time you have lost and the distance you have spent apart. I can understand that, but Fynn..." His grip tightened slightly. “How do you think you will ever make up for hurting her this time? Because I don't think there is anything that you could do to erase this bitter memory from any of our heads and no matter how much you apologise, I don't think I will be generous enough to forgive you for this act of yours, even if Enna will forgive …I don't I would be able to forget this incident easily…in fact I don't think you yourself c

    Author's POV: The air inside the cottage felt suffocating, heavy with the aftermath of their brutal confrontation. The remnants of their fight lay scattered—broken furniture, splintered wood, and the metallic tang of blood lingering in the air, but the broken fragments of words and the things that were broken by the force of them were nowhere to be found. Fynn was on his knees, the shock of Kai’s words crashing over him like a tidal wave. He knew he couldn't stay standing on his feet after the tsunami that had just hit his world.His mind was a whirlpool of disbelief and desperation. Could this be true? “Is this true? Is it really true what you are saying–”“You really think I would lie about him? He's my son too, you bastard!!?”Kai’s eyes blazed with anger. Without warning, he grabbed him by the collar and shoved him back with a force that sent him sprawling. Fynn’s spine struck the ground hard, and he grunted as pain flared through his back.“That’s why I said what I said,” Kai

    Author's POV: The cottage stood silent and foreboding, the morning mist curling lazily around the worn wooden structure. Birds dared not chirp, sensing the tension thickening the air. The door swung open violently, crashing against the wall as Kai stormed inside, eyes blazing and muscles taut with barely restrained fury.“Fynn!” he roared, voice echoing off the wooden beams. “Where the hell are you?!” The anger in his voice reverberated like a thunderclap. “Fynn, you can't hide from me, you coward! Come out, or are you only brave enough to hurt my wife?!”For a moment, the only sound was the rush of Kai’s heavy breathing. The air was heavy with the promise of violence. There were enough signs that could justify that promise.The cottage’s shadows flickered, disturbed by the force of his entrance.Then, from the back room, Fynn emerged. His expression was a cold mask, but his eyes blazed with pent-up rage and betrayal. He stepped forward, arms crossed over his chest, and a bitter smi
