Thalia's POVFive days had passed, and yet my heart still pounded like a drum inside my chest as I stood outside Garrett’s office.My palms were damp, my breath unsteady. The weight of what I was about to do settled heavily on my shoulders.I had needed this time to prepare, to steel myself for the inevitable. At some point, it looked like I was procrastinating the whole thing—until I decided to just fuck it and get it over with.Now that I was here, doubt gnawed at the edges of my resolve.I turned slightly, glancing over my shoulder.Luka stood at the corner of the hallway, arms crossed, red eyes locked on me with an intensity that sent a strange comfort through me. Concern was etched into his expression. He didn’t like this. Not one bit. But he was here. He would do his part.The plan was simple—at least, in theory.The moment I stepped inside, Luka would find a way to get to Ronan. I had to buy him time. I had to make Garrett drop his careful mask, make him reckless enough tha

Luka’s POVAs soon as Thalia disappeared into my father’s office, I took off, my legs pumping as I raced toward the palace.My heartbeat pounded in my ears, drowning out every rational thought except one—I had to reach the Alpha.I didn’t know how the hell I was going to do it, didn’t know if he’d even listen to me, but I clenched my teeth and swore under my breath. I would get to him.Thalia had trusted me.She was putting herself in the hands of a monster for this plan to work, and if I failed… I shook my head, pushing the thought away. I couldn’t fail. Not now.A sharp, burning rage coiled in my gut, tightening with every step I took.My father. Garret.That bastard. That sick, perverted excuse for a man. He was a snake, a predator, a depraved, rotting stain on the world. I had spent my whole life under his thumb, forced to pretend, forced to endure. But this… this was different. This time, I had a chance to act.And I would.The memories threatened to surface, but I shoved them

Thalia's POVMy body locked up, every muscle tense as his words dripped into my ears. I had known what I was walking into. I had planned for it. But now, standing here, his breath warm against my skin, I felt like a rabbit caught in a snare.No. I couldn’t afford to freeze. I had to stay in control—what little of it I had left.Swallowing back the bile rising in my throat, I took a slow step forward, then another, my hands gripping the fabric of my dress like a lifeline as I turned to face him. “Garret,” I began, “I think maybe… we should slow down. You know, savor the moment?”I couldn't believe I had just said that.I nearly facepalmed as soon as the words left my mouth.Of all the things I could think of to stall for more time, why the hell did I have to say this?His eyes darkened, that twisted smirk still curving his lips“Slow down?” he repeated, as though the very concept was foreign to him. “Sweetheart, does this look like a joke to you?”I didn’t dare look down. I already k

Luka's POVMy head snapped toward the voice, heart pounding in my chest.Lady Hebathi.Hope flared inside me, desperate and wild.I hadn’t had many encounters with her, but the rumors were enough—she was said to be fair, a woman who didn’t discriminate. If there was anyone here who might listen, who might help me reach the Alpha, it was her.“Lady Hebathi!” I called out, “Please! There’s an emergency—”The older guard growled, shoving me back. “Shut the fuck up.”Pain shot through me as I stumbled, but I barely had time to react before his fist came crashing into my face again.My head snapped to the side, blood filling my mouth.The world blurred for a second, but through the ringing in my ears, I heard it—a sharp intake of breath, followed by a voice like steel wrapped in silk.“What the hell do you think you’re doing?”The guards froze.I blinked, shaking off the haze of pain, and saw her standing there, her violet eyes narrowed in fury.Her presence alone sent a wave of unease th

Thalia's POVGarret’s laughter filled the room—loud and manic. It made my skin crawl.I held the dagger straight toward him, ready to carry out my threat if he stepped out of line.I barely had a second to react before his hand shot out, striking the knife from my grasp. It clattered to the floor, the sound swallowed by the thick, suffocating tension between us.Shit! I gasped, but before I could think—before I could move—his hand wrapped around my throat.My feet left the ground.A strangled, broken sound escaped me as my fingers clawed at his grip, useless against the sheer strength in his arms.My vision blurred as he lifted me higher, my legs kicking weakly, desperate to find footing that wasn’t there.Air. I couldn’t breathe.My heart pounded against my ribs, every frantic beat hammering home the truth—this was real. I was going to die here.Tears stung my eyes as my hands scrabbled at his wrist, but my strength was nothing compared to his. I was nothing compared to him.His l

Ronan's POVLuka’s words barely registered before I moved. One second, I stood frozen, my mind catching up with the filth that had just left his mouth. The next, my hand was around his throat, lifting him clean off the ground.“What the fuck did you just say?” My voice was low, barely above a whisper, but it cut through the air like a blade.Luka choked, his fingers clawing at mine as his legs kicked in the empty space beneath him.“Ronan,” Hebathi’s voice came sharp and clear, but distant—irrelevant. “Put him down. Now.”I ignored her. My grip tightened. I wanted him to suffer for making me hear those words, for saying something so vile that it felt like a sickness rotting inside me.“Say it again,” I demanded, voice deadly calm. “I dare you.”Luka’s face was turning red, his mouth opening and closing as he fought for air.“Thalia,” he croaked. “My father—he’s—” He gasped, his body jerking. “He’s going to rape her.”A growl ripped from my chest—deep, guttural, and primal.It wasn't n

Ronan's POVI barely registered the moment Hebathi, Aedric, and Luka stormed into the room.Their reactions came in fragments—Hebathi’s sharp gasp, Luka’s fists trembling at his sides, Aedric’s cold, assessing gaze sweeping over the wreckage.“Where the hell do you think you’re going?” Aedric barked.I turned my head sharply, just in time to see Garret scrambling over the window ledge in a pathetic attempt to escape.Aedric made a move to follow, but I cut him off with a sharp look. “Leave him.”He was mine, and nothing was going to come between me and destroying him.I turned to Hebathi, pressing Thalia into her arms. “Take her to the healers.”Hebathi hesitated for only a second before nodding, clutching Thalia close as she rushed off.I didn’t waste another moment.I turned, strode toward the window, and without hesitation, jumped.Everything else vanished—the room, the voices, the lingering scent of blood. My world had narrowed to one singular purpose: figuring out the most effici

Ronan's POVFor a heartbeat, no one moved. Then, as if snapping out of a trance, they seized Garret by what remained of his ruined flesh.He screamed—a raw, broken sound—as they dragged him away. Let him suffer. Let him remember.The crowd around us was a sea of wide eyes and hushed whispers.I didn’t care. My pulse still hammered, the rage a living thing beneath my skin, clawing for release. Not yet. I needed to see her. Needed to know she was whole."Leave," I snapped. The word cut through the murmurs like a blade.The crowd blurred into nothing as I forced air into my lungs, each breath sharp, deliberate.“Control. Stay in control.” But the thought of her—unconscious, bleeding—sent a fresh wave of fury boiling under my skin.I didn’t remember moving, but suddenly, I was there, shoving open the healer’s door.The scent of herbs and magic hit me, thick and cloying.My gaze locked onto Thalia—pale, still, her dark hair fanned out like spilled ink against the white sheets.Hebath moved

Ronan's POVHebathi's brows furrowed. Her voice was low, almost strained. “Why would you go to her?”I didn’t answer right away. Instead, I started pacing, the way I always did when I was trying to outrun my own thoughts. Shadows dragged along the walls with every step I took, and the fire crackled behind me like it had its own heartbeat.“I felt him,” I said finally, voice clipped. “Fenris.”She stiffened.“The moment I laid eyes on Thalia… that first day she was brought here like some offering—I felt him.” I stopped pacing, staring into nothing. “He surfaced.”Hebathi’s breath hitched, barely audible. When I turned to look at her, her eyes were wide. Hurt. Accusing. “You told me you didn’t know why. You said it didn’t mean anything.”“I know,” I muttered, jaw clenching. “I lied. Everything was—overwhelming. I was still trying to piece myself together, and then… she shows up and suddenly the thing I thought was gone—wasn’t.”I resumed pacing, needing to move, needing the motion to ke

Ronan's POVHebathi’s mouth tightened. Still silent. Still listening.I clenched my fists. My knuckles cracked, and I didn’t even feel it. The emotions I tried to keep buried came pouring out before I could stop them.“Then he leaned forward, like he was sharing some big secret. And he said, ‘She doesn’t want you anymore. She’s mine now.’”I felt my voice shake with burning fury. “‘Who would choose a mutt like you over me?’ he said. *‘You live under my rule, eat my scraps, sleep in the dirt. I'm the Alpha of this pack—*of course she chose me.’”My jaw locked. I remembered that moment like it had just happened. The way the room spun. The heat rising in my chest. My wolf, Fenris clawing at my insides, ready to tear something apart.“I told him to shut up. I told him to bring her to me. Let her say it to my face.”My breath came out harsh. Wild. “I begged. I roared. I didn’t care anymore—I just needed to see her. To hear her say it. Even if it destroyed me.”Hebathi flinched slightly.

Ronan's POV“…Everything I tried not to need. Everything I tried to forget.”Hebathi didn’t move.But her silence wasn’t empty. It was waiting.Her eyes narrowed just enough, just barely. “What the hell does that mean, Ronan?”I let out a breath—slow, rough. I couldn’t pace. Couldn’t hide behind anger or silence anymore. So I stood still. Right there in front of her, stripped down to the bone, because pretending I had control was a waste of both our time.“You don’t know everything about me,” I said, voice low. “That was never an accident. I kept my past sealed away—for good reason. But you deserve the truth.”I swallowed the knot in my throat.“Before I became this—Alpha, soldier, sovereign—I was just a man. A pack member. Bloodstone-born. Nothing special. I trained. I hunted. I fought. That was my whole world. And for a while… it was enough.”My chest tightened. The memory crept in without mercy.“Because I had her.”Hebathi’s lips parted slightly. Just a breath. Nothing more.I kep

Ronan's POVWhatever war she’d fought inside herself, she’d won.But me?I was still in the trenches.I yanked my shirt over my head and stalked toward the door. My boots felt like they were dragging the entire damned mountain with them.I can’t have you. Not anymore.Her voice rang in my head like a death knell. Over and over.I didn’t say goodbye. Didn’t promise I’d come back. What was there to say?I was Alpha, yeah. But right now? I didn’t feel like I had control over anything.Not her.Not Hebathi.Not even myself.As I walked through the corridors, my fists stayed clenched at my sides. My jaw locked so tight I thought it might crack. The walls felt too close, the air too still. Every step was heavier than the last, like the storm inside me was leaking into my body, dragging me down.She said no. She told you to leave.And yet… it wasn’t even the rejection that got me. It was how soft she said it. How final. Like she’d already let me go a long time ago and I was just catching up.

Thalia's POVI stood there, frozen, clutching my chest like I could keep my heart from splitting apart. Ronan’s back was the last thing I saw before the door closed behind him. No goodbye. No look back. Just silence.And then—nothing.Except the sound of my own breathing, jagged and uneven.Why did it hurt this much?I slid my fingers over the spot just above my heart, pressing hard. As if pressure could smother the ache. It didn’t. It only made it worse.He left.Of course he did.I told him to. I meant to. I thought I could handle it.But gods, it felt like I’d just ripped out my own ribs and handed them over.I didn’t want him to go. Not really.I wanted him to fight for me. Just once. To look back. To stay.But he didn’t. He never does.I dropped my hand, trembling, and wrapped my arms around myself. The room was too quiet. Too still. It made the screaming in my chest louder.Why was I jealous? Why should I be?Hebathi was strong. Beautiful. Everything I wasn’t.And she loved him,

Ronan's POV“That’s enough,” I said, my voice low, cold, final.The growl hadn’t stopped—if anything, it rumbled deeper in my chest now, vibrating through my bones. I stared Hebathi down, jaw tight, breathing steady, even though every part of me was screaming inside.She didn't flinch. Of course she didn’t.“You don’t get to shut me down, Ronan,” she snapped, stepping forward. “I have every right to ask what the hell is going on!”“You will respect my authority as Alpha.” The words thundered out of me, sharp and absolute. “Or walk away.”Her eyes widened for a heartbeat—hurt, betrayal, something else I didn’t want to name—but then fire took its place.“The least I deserve is an explanation to this whole crap!” she barked back, voice rising to match mine. “You think you can play god with everyone’s lives and toss us aside like we’re nothing?! You owe me, Ronan!”The guilt was there. Twisting like a knife in my chest. I didn’t want to look at her—not when she was standing there with bro

Ronan's POVI stood there like a damn fool, half-dressed and breathless, watching Hebathi stare at me like I’d grown two heads.She was holding a bowl—soup, maybe. I didn’t care. What I cared about was the way her expression shifted: shock, disappointment, anger... then full-blown rage.I could feel the heat from her glare like a slap to the face.The primal, guttural pull that had been twisting in my gut moments ago—my wolf, Fenris no doubt—went deathly silent. As if even he knew we were screwed.I clenched my jaw, every muscle in my body tensing.I wanted to speak. To say something, anything.But what the hell could I say?“Sorry you had to see me groping the girl I swore to stay away from?”Yeah. That would go over real well.I didn’t move. Neither did she.Thalia stood behind me, quiet and small, like she was trying to shrink into the shadows. My body still hummed from touching her, tasting her. Her skin was warm where my hands had just been, and the memory of her soft moan still

Thalia's POVHis lips crashed into mine—hard, unrelenting, unapologetic.There was nothing gentle about it. Nothing like Luka’s soft, hesitant kiss. No slow build, no careful caress. This was fire. This was chaos. This was Ronan.His hands moved with a kind of hunger I wasn’t prepared for.One cupped the side of my neck, tilting my face up as his mouth devoured mine, while the other slid around my waist, dragging me flush against his body. My breath caught—his body was so warm, so solid, so painfully familiar.I should’ve pushed him away. I should’ve asked why. But I didn’t.I didn’t move.Of course I didn’t.Because no matter the hatred and anger he showed towards me, deep down, I missed this. I missed him.His body against mine, his scent, the way he kissed like he was claiming something that had always been his.He kissed me like a man starved—possessive, untamed. Like he was angry at himself for wanting me, and even angrier that I’d let someone else touch me.And goddess… I melted

Thalia's POVI blinked, feeling the blood drain from my face.My breath hitched in my chest, and for a moment, time seemed to freeze.The shock was overwhelming, and I couldn’t make sense of what was happening.Did he see? Did he see everything?My heart pounded in my ears as different thoughts tumbled over each other, threatening to swallow me whole.I had thought we were quick enough, that the kiss had been broken off before anything could escalate.But the way Ronan was looking at me—those eyes, dark and predatory—left me with no doubt.He'd seen everything.“I believe you aren't tongue-tied, Thalia, so answer me.” His voice was low, almost a growl, and I could hear the sharpness in it.He knows. He knows.What do I do?I felt the sweat bead on my skin, a thin sheen of panic slipping down my back.My chest felt tight, the words trapped in my throat.What could I say? What should I say?My mind raced, trying to form something that would explain this, but nothing came. Nothing made s
