AUTHOR'S POV:

After Raven was gone to the washroom to wash her face like she said, Bethany took another sip of her drink, squeezing a hand into her hair in frustration. She was beginning to regret quarreling with Isadora earlier. Not only did she not like that Ethan had to witness what happened, but she knew it was inappropriate for her as a gamma of the pack.

But what she regretted most was not beating up that b*tch thoroughly. Sure, she had known Isadora was a shrew and she always tried to keep her cool, but she crossed the line tonight by talking about Lila.

It was disgraceful enough that she was trying to snag her dead sister's mate, but she even had the guts to talk about a dead person like that.

The more she thought about it, the angrier Bethany grew. She felt like smacking those lips of hers again.

Out of curiosity to see if they were still there, she turned to look behind her. But her heart constricted the moment her gaze fell on the figure approaching her. He was only a few

    LUCAS'S POV:"Fuck, don't touch her... Raven," I screamed out and woke up from my sleep, all sweaty. My head was pounding and remnants of the dream I just had kept drowning my head. I sighed, leaning back and it was only then I realized where I was. Six gazes were on me intently, most curious and confused but a particular one full of questions and anger.I must have slept off during the executives meeting. That was already bad enough, and then I screamed Raven's name out loud. It was no wonder why Nadia looked like she could kill someone right then."Are you okay, Alpha?" Theo who was seated directly beside me asked, his gaze completely devoid of concern though. "Yeah." I nodded, choosing to ignore his veiled contempt.He laughed, rubbing his chin and muttered, "I don't think so. Otherwise, you wouldn't be yelling Raven's name from your sleep like you're lovesick."My chilly gaze moved to him and I gave him a glare. Did he need to say it out loud?I folded my palms and questioned, "

    AUTHOR’S POV:Roman fiddled with his phone in hand as he paced around the room, pondering. His gaze flicked to his right hand, still wrapped in gauze for a few more seconds before turning on his phone, having made up his mind. He keyed in a few digits on his phone and dialled it before leaning against a wall, patiently waiting as it continued to ring. It took a while before the call was answered, and a low female voice sounded in his ear, “Hello.”The moment he heard that voice, his gaze constricted, and he shifted on one leg, tempted to hang up. But, he was also too curious to do so. He wanted to know why she did that; just one question. However, he forgot that as she was about to hang up when he didn’t speak and she grumbled, “If you’re not going to speak, I’m going to hang up.”“It’s me,” he answered, digging his left hand in his pocket.“Who?” She asked, so naturally that it made him grit his teeth. She really didn’t know who he was, but he wouldn’t mistake her voice for another,

    RAVEN’S POV:The sounds of the keypad were rather loud as I typed and edited the final business plan I was going to present to Tristan today. I managed to finish it after a whole sleepless night. My eyes were feeling murky, and I was very sleepy, but I still had a lot to do, so I could only go on typing.Just as I finished up and copied the file to a drive, the intercom beside me suddenly began to beep incessantly, and I looked up at the President's door across me. The windows were closed and blinds pulled, so I couldn't see him, and I wasn't expecting him to call me in.But I quickly answered the intercom, and his cold voice rang out, calm and fluid, "Come to my office.""Yes, Alpha," I answered, grabbing the tablet where I kept notes before sauntering to his office. I knocked and entered, closing the door behind me before approaching him.He seemed rather busy and merely glanced at me before returning to what he was doing. He asked, "Are you done with the business plan?""Yes, Alpha

    "Let's talk, Secretary Daniels," she told me before walking out of the room, clearly expecting me to tail after her. She had always treated people like that, like she was above everyone, but for some reason, today, it felt as though she was looking at me with ridiculing eyes.But since she said she wanted to talk, I could only follow behind her. We stopped at a quiet part of the hallway, and she turned to me, crossing her arms."You must feel rather proud today," she remarked the moment we got there."Sorry?" I didn't understand why she suddenly said that.She laughed suddenly, contempt shining her eyes as she uttered, "Don't bother acting dumb, Raven." Her gaze settled on me meaningfully. "We both know you must have done something. Whatever you did, I don't know, but let me warn you... what happened today will never happen again. I'll make sure of it."I really couldn't understand what she was talking about, but for one, I hated that gaze. That contemptuous gaze that I thought I woul

    RAVEN’S POV:Alexander's gaze drifted around before finally landing on me, who was seated beside him. His wounds have been cleaned up, and his arm wrapped in a cast."Ms. Raven..." he began to speak. "How do you feel?" I asked as he prepared to sit up. I helped him up, and he rested on the chair. He gave a small, gentle smile, looking at his arm. "I feel better." Then, he looked around his surroundings. They brought him to the pack hospital, and after he was treated, he was left in the public ward.It was about two hours since we arrived and very late. I was extremely tired, too, after all the stress from work and today's incident. I had also gone to check on the boy, and he didn't have any complications. The doctor I met said he only fainted out of exhaustion and needed to rest. They had also started looking for the boy's parents and informed the pack officials."Do you have anyone else that can stay and take care of you?" I asked Alexander, looking at me wristwatch. It was late.H

    AUTHOR'S POV:Candace stood at the door of Tristan's office for a couple of minutes, seemingly hesitating to knock. But after a moment, she knocked gently on the mahogany door."It's me, Alpha," she called out to him, and after she heard him tell her to enter, she opened the door and entered.Probably because it was late, the lights in his office were dimmer, so she couldn't see what his expression looked like clearly from where she stood. But she could tell he was staring at her, so she quickly walked up to him."Why are you still here?" His voice sounded displeased and quite reasonably so since it was no secret that he didn't like any of his employees staying over at the office late in the night.It was already daring enough for her to ask him what she was about to say, but she just didn't like what he did. As she stood in front of him now, however, she was beginning to have cold feet."Secretary Williams," Tristan called, his voice descending even lower when she didn't speak.Canda

    NADIA'S POV:"Welcome, Miss," the housekeeper greeted with a bow the moment I entered the manor, and I simply gave a nod before entering the living room.. She quickly followed behind me, and I asked her, not bothering to turn and look at her, "Where is my father?""He's in his study, Miss," she told me, and I made a beeline toward the direction of his study. When I got there, I knocked gently on the door before entering.He seemed busy when I entered and reading a report, but when I appeared in front of him, he closed the papers and looked at me. "When did you get back?" He questioned."Just now," I replied, grabbing a chair and settling on it. My gaze flicked to the heap of files in front of him. "It looks like you still have a lot to do."He nodded. "Yeah. It's almost time for the council reviews. It seems a lot of the elders will be queried this time.""Why?" I couldn't help asking, surprised he was telling me about the council. But even more about why they would be queried since

    AUTHOR'S POV:Raven had just grabbed her food from the counter, carrying her tray in hand as she searched for an empty seat when she noticed Alexander sitting alone, an empty chair across him. She quickly approached, settling on the chair as she placed her tray on the table before looking at him.When he looked up at her, he seemed surprised at first, but he soon smiled. "Ms. Raven.""How do you feel now?" She asked, looking at his arm. The cast had already been removed, which meant he was better. It had been days since that accident, and work was very hectic, so she could barely find the time to go check on him. Even now, she was merely stealing a few minutes to catch up on lunch before running off to distribute the files to the other teams.That made her feel guilty since she promised. But thankfully, she ran into him today.Alexander took a spoonful of his food and held the fork in his hand as he spoke, "I'm better now. You don't have to worry. It's been rather hectic these days, s

    AUTHOR'S POV:"Congratulations, Miss Raven. You're three months pregnant," Dr. Foster announced with a warm smile, his eyes reflecting genuine joy. The test results were on top of his desk as he closed the papers.Raven blinked, disbelief etched across her face. "Pregnant? But... how?" she stammered, her mind still catching up. It felt like the walls were suddenly closing in on her.The doctor chuckled. "Well, it seems you fainted earlier because of more than just fatigue. You're going to be a mother." He handed her the test result, and Raven's trembling hands took hold of it.She sat there for a couple of seconds, trying to process the situation. She had fainted at the office earlier that day, so she came to the hospital, but surely, she was not expecting to be told she was pregnant."Thank you, Doctor," she managed to utter, her thoughts racing. As she exited the office, the weight of the news sank in, leaving her stunned.As she walked along the hospital hallway, she ran into Larson

    TRISTAN’S POV:I stared at the screen, my eyes glued to the footage Ethan had managed to salvage from the hotel's security system. Frustration simmered within me as I realized there was a critical gap – the moment Seraphine supposedly plunged into the water was missing. Deleted. Gone."Can't you retrieve that part?" I asked Ethan, my voice tight with worry.Ethan sighed, shoulders slumping. "I went to Jasper's place, watched him try, but even he couldn't get it back. It's like it vanished."Disturbed, I knew that missing piece was vital to proving Raven's innocence. No matter how fiercely I could protect her, I couldn't let a stain tarnish her reputation. I pondered the options – interrogate Seraphine, force a confession, but the risks loomed large. Accusations of me using my power to bully could tarnish my position without solid proof. Not to mention, it would affect Raven - they'd accuse her of messing with my head."We need that footage, Ethan. Find a way," I urged, worry coursing

    RAVEN'S POV:An uneasy vibe buzzed in me as Tristan and I shuffled down the hospital hallway. Seraphine supposedly woke up, but it still felt surreal. What happened still feels like a dream to me, and I was unable to come to terms that she had almost died.When we reached the door of the VIP ward she was staying in, a crowd awaited – her family. I didn't realize she had so many relatives, and even Tristan's mom, Luna BlackClaw, was there.The moment we appeared, all gazes fell on us, especially me. Their glares screamed judgment, but I held my cool, knowing I didn't do what they accused.Probably sensing my unease, Tristan held my palm and rubbed it, an attempt to reassure me, so I shot him a forced smile, not wanting him to worry.Luna BlackClaw jumped on me first, fuming, "How dare you show your face here?"She looked very furious, and if one didn't know, they'd think Seraphine was her daughter. I would have been intimidated, but the conviction that I did nothing wrong made me meet

    Raven’s POV:I held a glass of wine as I looked around the hall. I was attending Madison's engagement ceremony, and there weren't a lot of people in attendance, as the marriage was not aristocratic, and there were a lot of gossip about them in the pack. Not to mention, it was no news that her father wanted her to marry a richer and well-known man, not her mate. They were all everybody was talking about and giving their two cents of advice on like they knew it all.But as I stared at Madison's figure walking around the entire hall arm in arm with her mate, Christian, I could tell she was happy with the man she ended up with. And I was happy for her because it meant that not all mates were assholes, and they complemented one another well.However, as I saw Madison approaching me with Christian, I placed the wine glass in my hand on the table some distance from me. I didn't want to toast her and have to drink the wine.Firstly, because I had promised Tristan that even though he wasn't th

    TRISTAN’S POV:I smiled, seeing the sheer fear and shame that ran through their spines upon seeing me. "Isn't it rude to start a meeting without me, the main topic of the so-called abdication?"As I spoke, I strolled to my seat and settled down. Lucas frowned, but he was soon back to being haughty. That made me frown at his closed-mindedness - how could he be foolish enough to rely only on one piece of evidence that wasn't conclusive enough?"Which rule of the council talks about members not holding a meeting behind the Alpha King?" I questioned as I tapped on the table, intending to drag it out and give them chills."Ru...rule 15," one of them managed to speak while the rest of them frowned, but they all seemed to have regained their composure.I was about to respond when Lucas coldly snorted, "That doesn't include an abdication gathering in the case of a bad Alpha King."That made me perk up, and my gaze found his. "Oh really? How bad of a King am I that you all respectable Alphas w

    Lucas paced back and forth in his dimly lit study, a sense of urgency in his voice as he spoke into his phone. "Make sure the meeting room is ready, and no one should tip off Tristan. We can't afford any slip-ups," he ordered.The door swung open abruptly, and Nadia stood there, a hand on her now heavily pregnant stomach. Anger flashed in Lucas's eyes, but he held back his initial impulse to shout at her for barging in. Instead, he ended the call, turning his attention to Nadia. "What are you doing here?" he inquired, attempting to keep his tone steady.Nadia, however, was not in the mood for pleasantries. She stormed toward Lucas, pushing him in the chest. "What do you think you're doing?" she demanded, frustration evident in her voice.Perplexed, Lucas responded, "What do you mean?"Without wasting a moment, Nadia thrust photos into his face. "Someone saw you with another woman last night. They're spreading rumors about us," she accused, her eyes ablaze.Lucas glanced at the picture

    AUTHOR'S POV;Tristan diligently sorted through the crates in the pack house, the rhythmic hum of activity disrupted as Ethan approached. "Someone's looking for you, Tristan," Ethan said, a frown creasing his brow.Tristan raised an eyebrow, setting down a box. "You know pack members aren't supposed to disturb me at work. Who is it?"Ethan hesitated, then leaned in, voice low. "Alpha Odette."Tristan's surprise flashed across his face. "Alpha Odette? What does she want?"Ethan shrugged, a wary expression in his eyes. "I don't know, but be careful. She's always scheming."A wry smile played on Tristan's lips. "You've never liked her, have you?" Not that he was fond of her either, but he happened to help her three months back to deal with a rogue issue when his investigations led him to her pack, and he realized she was just always scheming and plotting, but her personality wasn't all that bad.Ethan scowled. "And you shouldn't either. Just be cautious."Tristan chuckled, waving Ethan o

    RAVEN’S POV:I lay in his arms as he tousled my hair playfully. He didn't go back to the pack office to work, and we just lay together in silence in his room."She just came in like that, and I thought she was a pack member at first," he explained, looking at me, and I couldn't help but smile at how he seemed to forget she was also a pack member."She is a pack member," I corrected, and he only muttered, "Oh.""You're too cold," I couldn't help telling him. He always avoided her, and even before what happened tonight, his stepmother had been trying all sorts of means to push them together, causing further ruin to their relationship.But he was unbothered, unlike me, as he shrugged. "I've always been this way. No need to pay attention to irrelevant people."I chuckled at this, half worried I was ruining his relationship with other people but also pleased that he was avoiding having anything to do with his ex.Just then, he sat up and leaned to get something out of his bedside drawer.

    Tristan's fingers danced across the keyboard in the dimly lit pack house office, the hum soft in the background. Suddenly, the tranquil air shattered as the thunderous noise of running feet echoed from the nearby field. He sighed, his attention disrupted by the unwelcome commotion, reaffirming his disdain for working in the pack house office.Just then, a soft chime emanated from his phone, a welcome distraction. Raven's message illuminated the screen, and a grin replaced Tristan's earlier frown. "How's your headache?" she inquired, a simple yet thoughtful question that melted away his lingering discomfort.His thumbs swiftly responded, typing out his improved condition. As he hit send, an unexpected knock echoed through the room."Come in," he muttered, granting entry to the interrupter, anticipating a curious pack member who had heard he was around and wanted to bother him with something basic.However, when the door swung open, revealing Seraphine in a provocative black dress, Tris
