AUTHOR He was about to say something when he heard a voice behind him“The prodigal son has returned.” He and Amelia turned back only to find out, it’s was Klaus Klaus stood there, arms crossed and an unreadable expression on his face. His eyes flicked from Kai to Amelia, then back to Kai. The tension in the air was thick enough to cut with a knife.“Kai,” Klaus said, his voice deceptively calm. “It’s been a long time.”Kai nodded slowly, his eyes never leaving Amelia. “Yes, it has. Too long, perhaps.”Klaus stepped closer, his gaze now firmly on Amelia. “Amelia, what are you doing out here? Shouldn’t you be resting?”Amelia swallowed hard, her throat dry. “I… I needed some air,” she stammered, her mind racing for an excuse. “And then I ran into Kai.”Klaus turned to Kai, his expression softening slightly. “You’ve met my wife, then?”Kai’s jaw tightened, and he forced a smile. “Yes, we’ve met.”The silence that followed was deafening, each second stretching out painfully. Klaus fin
AMELIA’S POVI sat on the floor, crying my tears out because there was absolutely nothing else I could do. I walked to the mirror and saw the bruises on my face. I was about to wipe off the blood when a knock came on the door. My heart skipped a beat, but it was just the maid.“The king asked you to come down for dinner,” she said quietly.I nodded, forcing a smile. “Okay, I’m coming.”As she left, I felt the weight of the evening press down on me. I needed to wash away the blood and pain, so I headed to the shower and let the warm water run over me, cleansing my body and giving me a momentary reprieve from the horror of my reality.When I was done, I dressed carefully, choosing a long-sleeved dress to cover the bruises on my arms. I applied makeup, gingerly dabbing foundation over the bruises on my face. It wasn’t perfect, but it would have to do.Taking a deep breath, I descended the stairs and entered the dining room. The king, Kai, and Klaus were already seated and eating. I joine

Clara's POV "Oh my God" the words escaped my lips as I placed my hands over my mouth. The sight of the dead body before me turned my belly, and I tried to maintain calm just so I wouldn't throw up my bowels on the ground. "I'm very sorry you had to witness this, Clara" Klaus said to me as he approached me, walking towards me and placing his huge body over me as though he tried to shield me away from the sight of the dead lady on the ground. I was seriously lost in the sequeled actions of that moment. First, it started off with Kai draining the life force of the lady, to having Klaus trying to shield me from.the grotesque sight.Yet, I could feel Klaus' hands all over my body. I didn't know if it was an intentional act to seize this moment into touching me in the most absurd way. But his actions had immediately triggered a fury inside of me which I tried to force down the drain."I'm very sorry, Clara" I could still hear Kai's sober tone from the side of the room. His hands were wr
Ethan’s POVI walked into the bathroom, shutting the door quietly behind me.The entire palace had gone silent, everyone had long since retired to their rooms, getting as much rest as they could before the grand event tomorrow.The masquerade ball.I sighed and rubbed my temples, trying to shove the thoughts gnawing at my mind away.But no matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t erase the memory of what happened earlier today—the way Alex had kissed me… and worse, the way I had kissed him back.My heart thudded painfully in my chest just remembering it.What the hell is wrong with me?I walked over to the shower and turned the faucet, letting the water run until it was scalding hot, hoping it would wash away the guilt clinging to my skin.Steam quickly filled the room, misting over the mirror and curling around my body.I stripped off my clothes and stepped under the punishing spray, hissing slightly at the heat before forcing myself to stand directly under it, arms braced against the col
Amelia’s POVI stood in front of the mirror, my fingers smoothing the soft fabric of the dress I was altering for tomorrow’s masquerade ball. The palace was buzzing with excitement for the event, but in my room, there was only silence—heavy, almost suffocating.A sharp knock broke the stillness.Before I could even call out, the door swung open, and Kai strode inside with a stormy expression. He didn’t ask for permission. He never did. His presence filled the room instantly, his energy tense, bristling with barely concealed anger.I barely had time to react before he spoke.“I saw my father coming out of your room this morning,” he said, his voice low but seething. His eyes—so much like Klaus’s—burned into mine. “Are you still sleeping with him?”I froze. My heart slammed painfully against my chest.“I… I am—” I began, desperate to explain, to say anything that could make him understand. But he didn’t let me finish.“You disgust me,” he snapped, stepping closer. His words lashed like
The King’s POVWe walked into the secret dungeon, my dungeon. Hidden beneath the palace, carved into the earth with spells and steel, this place was built by my own hands, forged in secrecy. No one else in the kingdom knew of its existence except for Joe, my most trusted beta. Not even my sons. Not even the Council.The thick iron door groaned as Joe unlocked it, the screech of metal slicing through the silence like a blade. The stench hit immediately—damp stone, rusted chains, and the bitter scent of decay. But I’d grown used to it. It smelled like betrayal.There she was.Queen Kate.Once regal, now reduced to nothing but a ghost of her former self. She sat curled in the corner, chains digging into her ankles and wrists, her once-glorious silver hair now a tangled mess. But the moment the door opened, her head snapped up. Her eyes—though sunken and weary—still held that desperate gleam.She crawled forward, dragging the chains with her.“Please… please, let me out,” she whispered, h
The King’s POVI walked beside Joe, my loyal Beta and oldest friend, the echo of our boots filling the long corridor leading to the war council chamber. The guards at the massive double doors bowed their heads and opened them without a word.Inside, the council members were already seated—elders, generals, and pack alphas from across the realm. The moment I entered, every single one of them rose to their feet and lowered their heads in unison.“All hail the Blood of the Moon, our Alpha King,” they chorused with practiced reverence.The title rang through the chamber, heavy with meaning. I nodded once, then strode across the room and sat on the black stone throne at the head of the table. Cold, unyielding, and carved with ancient runes—it suited me.With a wave of my hand, I signaled them to sit.“Proceed,” I said.One by one, they began to speak. Reports came in about rogue activity near the northern borders, the Crescent Pack’s delay in supplying warriors, and rumors of a brewing reb
Alex’s POVI walked into the sitting room, but my mind was miles away. My feet moved on autopilot while my thoughts spun in circles, clashing against each other like a storm with no end in sight.What the hell just happened?Ethan kissed me back.Not a hesitant brush of lips. Not a slip or a mistake. He kissed me like he wanted it, like he had been holding it in for years. His hands were firm, possessive. His body didn’t resist mine. For a moment, we were fire colliding with gasoline.And now, here I am… guilt gnawing at my chest like a parasite.How could I betray Elena like that?She’s been my best friend since we were kids. We grew up together, cried together, fought the world together. She’s the reason I was able to survive in a world where I had to hide who I was. And now… I did the one thing that could destroy her.I dropped into the couch, burying my face in my hands.“Damn it…”I wanted to blame the moment. The heat of it. The loneliness. The years of wanting Ethan in silence.
Ethan’s POVI couldn’t breathe.What the hell had just happened? My mind was racing as I stormed out of the shower, grabbing a towel to wrap around my waist. My hands shook, not from the cold water still trickling down my skin, but from the sudden rush of confusion and regret.Alex had kissed me. Kissed me. The force of it still lingered on my lips, and every inch of my body felt on fire, a blaze I couldn’t ignore. But I had to. I had to push him away.I couldn’t let this happen. Not like this. Not when I was married to Elena, his best friend friend. I loved her. I loved her with every ounce of my being. But what had just transpired…?I ran my hand through my wet hair, pacing the length of the room. My heart was still pounding, my chest constricted with guilt.Alex.He is my wife’s best friend, and now—what? Had I crossed a line I couldn’t take back? The way he’d kissed me, the way his body had reacted to mine, it all felt too real, too intense.But I was married to Elena. I loved her
Alex’s POVStep by step, I crossed the space between us, each footstep powered by something I couldn’t control anymore.And then without thinking I kissed him.Hard. Aggressive. Desperate.He pushed me off immediately, his eyes wide in shock.“What the fuck is wrong w—”I didn’t let him finish. I grabbed him again, crashing my lips into his, tighter this time, refusing to let go.As if my life depended on it.Just when I thought he would shove me off again—he didn’t.He kissed me back.Fiercely.Hungrily.As if something inside him had snapped and there was no turning back.His hands gripped my waist, dragging me closer, mouths colliding like we were starved for each other. His kiss wasn’t gentle—it was bruising, possessive… desperate. Like he had been fighting this too, like he hated how much he needed it but couldn’t help himself anymore.Our bodies were slick from the shower, wet skin sliding against wet skin. He spun me, slamming my back gently against the tiled wall, pressing his
Alex’s POVSeeing Ethan today… it did something to me. Something I thought I had buried long ago.He hadn’t changed much—still tall, broad-shouldered, effortlessly handsome with those piercing eyes that always seemed to see right through me. One polite smile, one quiet “good morning” from him, and it was like my heart forgot how to beat properly.I had always been in love with him.God, I tried not to be. I fought it with every fiber of my being. But feelings don’t listen to reason—especially not when they’ve taken root so deep, they’ve become part of who you are.But Ethan was straight. Is straight. His marriage to Elena, my best friend, was the nail in the coffin—if there was ever a coffin big enough to hold a heart this conflicted.Yes, I’m gay.And no one knows.Not Elena, even though she’s the closest person to me in the world. Not my father, the Beta of our pack, whose pride and legacy I was expected to uphold. Not anyone. I’ve worn this secret like armor for so long, it started
Amelia’s POV His breath was hot against my neck, his lips trailing a path that made my knees weak. My hands trembled as I clutched the robe tighter, but it was useless—he had already slipped it off, and now I stood there, vulnerable, trembling, and unable to form a single coherent thought. “You walk around dressed like that, moaning my name in your sleep,” he whispered, dragging his fingers slowly across my inner thigh. “Do you think I wouldn’t notice?” “I didn’t mean to—” I breathed, eyes fluttering shut as my body betrayed every logical thought in my head. His mouth found the hollow of my throat, kissing, tasting, claiming. “You belong to me, little wolf. I don’t care what anyone says… not even your husband.” My heart pounded in my chest, shame and desire clashing like fire and ice inside me. “I hate that I want you,” I whispered, barely able to speak. He pulled back just enough to look into my eyes. His were wild, stormy with desire. “Then hate me all you want,” he sai
