“What?!”
“We need to go now, get dressed. We need to take Larose to a safe place quickly.” He paced the room, clearly thinking of plan.
“Why? What's happening?” I asked, my anxiety rising by the second.
“It isn't a matter of what's happening but what will happen when Nathan gets a hold of Larose. Nathan somehow got out of prison and he's holding Carol hostage, he wants Larose in exchange for freeing her.”
“What?! But why? What does he want from her?”
“If I had to say, I think it's more of a grudge. She ruined his plans of killing father and becoming the next Alpha, he must want revenge on her.” Rion reasoned.
“Can't mother just have the guards arrest him or something?”
“He sneaked into the palace under the cover of the storm last night and hid in Carol's room. When Carol's caretaker went to wake her up this morning, he held h

Jaselyn's POVLarose's eyes widened at the news and almost instantly, the strength seemed to drain from her body. Rion caught her in his arms before she crumbled to the ground.Rion brought her to sit on the bed, she trembled, looking forlorn.“Larose, look at me,” I called to her, taking her hand in mine.Her eyes darted to me and tears rolled down her cheeks.“It's going to be OK, nothing will happen to Carol. Just pull yourself together please.”She shook her head, almost choking on her tears.“You have no idea what he's capable of. He's going to hurt her, he's going to hurt my daughter.” She cried.“He won't lay a finger on her, I'll make sure of it. If he does, I'll break every single bone in his body.” Rion reassured her.“I— I— I have to go. I have to get there now, he won't stop until he gets what he wants. I don't care what he does to me, I

Larose's POVI tried my best to remain calm, reminding myself that my daughter's life is resting in my hands.“Nathan, why are you doing this? Why are you hurting your own child in this way?”“Why am I doing this? Isn't it obvious?” He snorted. “You ruined my plans and sent me to prison. I was going to become the Alpha of this Pack and you just had to interfere. Now I have to teach you a lesson.”Everyone is counting on me, what happens from here on out depends on my performance.“What are you planning to do? You must know that keeping us here like this won't work. Mum will eventually grow tired of your games and send the guards crashing through the doors.” I reasoned out.“I know that, I'm not stupid.” He snapped.“What's your agenda then? Why are you doing this when you know you can't win?” I demanded and he pulled on my hair hard, causing me to yelp in pa

Larose's POV“Yes and they're planning to make him Alpha. They don't care that I'm the one who's worked her ass off since childhood, trying to prove that I was worthy. They don't care about all the sacrifices I've made or that I love this Pack like my own family.They don't give a fuck about any of that. The boy of the family suddenly shows up and I'm not worth anything anymore. I hate it.” I grit out with so much venom in my voice that I surprise myself as well.Nathan took his hand away from my jaw, giving me a chance to speak freely.“I despise him more with each passing day, I want him dead. He doesn't deserve to be Alpha. You might be an asshole yourself but I'd prefer it if you were Alpha.” I said in a determined voice and he let go of my hair.He studied my face for any sign of foul play.“Why should I believe anything you're saying? Why would you support me after everything I've done to you?&

Larose's POV“It's going to be OK, sweetheart, I promise. I'm here now so everything will be fine. You don't have to cry anymore.” I tried to soothe, breaking the hug so I could wipe her tears“Do you really think you've won, you silly woman? It's not over yet, I'm going to destroy you! I'll tear you apart limb from limb!” Nathan hollered like the deranged man that he was.“Oh, it is over. I assure you.” It was Rion's voice.I turned around just in time to see the door open with Rion, Jaselyn and mother walking into the room. Following behind mother was Erik, the Gamma of our Pack and he was dragging along a man who I quickly recognized with shock and distaste.The man was Nigel. I could never forget him. He's Nathan's close friend, the one I caught him in bed with and he's wearing a palace guard uniform.Just what is going on here?I could see Nathan's eyes widen in surprise and indignation when Er

Rion's POVI had a plan. And none of this was part of it.This terror, the blazing heat and suffocating air, the fiery hell all around us; it wasn't a fucking part of it! But then again, nothing ever goes as planned. I should know.The mahogany door stared me in the face like an uncharacteristically bad joke. I turned to Erik, knowing just what we had to do.“On three, Erik!” I shouted over the roaring flames.Erik nodded, his face set with determination despite the blistering heat. The smoke was thick and suffocating, clawing at our throats and stinging our eyes. Carol's silent cries and Larose's soothing whispers, Mildred's panicked fidgeting mixed with the crackling of burning wood, creating a symphony of chaos.“One, two, three!” We lunged at the door, our shoulders slamming into the solid mahogany with all our might. The impact sent shockwaves of pain through my body causing my bones to ache and groan to escape my throat, but the door remained stubbornly intact.Again. And again w

Jaselyn's POV It's been two days since the ordeal and all of us are still a little shaken by it, naturally so.The fire was put out without much hassle before it could spread to the other rooms but it'll take a while for the room to be rebuilt as it was completely destroyed by the flames.In the meantime, Carol will sleep in Larose's room. There are numerous rooms in the palace and she could get any one she wants but it's clear that she needs to be with her mother now more than ever.Just as Rion predicted, two badly burnt corpses were recovered from the room and they both fit the profile of Nigel and Nathan.Luna Daryna had called Rion, I and Larose to take a look at the corpses. When the white cloth was lifted up, I had to force myself not to look away as the sight before me had bile rushing up my throat.The bodies or what was left of them was twisted and contorted, frozen in what seemed like their final moments of agony. Their skins were blackened and cracked, peeling away to rev

Jaselyn's POV My heart clenches painfully at her words. How could anyone say such a thing to a child? It's absolutely unfathomable.I swallow hard, determined to handle this delicately. "Your daddy was very wrong to say that, Carol. You are not a burden. Your mummy loves you very much, and so do all of us. We’re so happy you’re here with us."But Carol's sad, questioning eyes stay fixed on me, and I know this conversation is far from over. As I sit there, holding her tiny hand in mine, I can’t shake the anger and sadness welling up inside me. Who the hell says something that insidious to a child?!Nathan's cruelty has left deep scars on this innocent child, and it will take a lot of love and patience to help her heal. But I am determined to be there for her, no matter what.“Carol, sweetie, would you like to go on a little adventure with me today?” I sign, smiling softly to try and lighten the mood. “I have a surprise for you.”Carol hesitates, her small fingers fidgeting as she sig

Jaselyn's POV“Children, this is Carol and she's come to play with us today.” The woman introduces.They come closer and all seem to be fascinated by Carol’s beauty, marveling at her gorgeous curly hair and pretty green eyes.“Hi! I’m Tommy. Do you wanna be friends?” A boy with freckles asks, grinning widely.Carol looks at me, unsure, and I step in. “Yes, Carol would love to be your friend.She can’t speak so she won't be able to answer your questions but she's very nice and she loves to play just like you.”Another girl with pigtails reaches out to touch Carol’s hair. “Wow, your hair is so pretty! I’m Lily. Do you want to play with us, Carol?”Carol’s eyes light up, and she signs her name. The children look confused, so I explain, “She’s saying her name is Carol. Can you all say ‘Hi, Carol’?”“Hi

Celio's POV The wooden floor creaked under my knees as I scrubbed away at the dirt, pushing the rag back and forth with all the strength my small, 8 year old body could muster. The chill of the mountain wind seeped through the cracks in the old walls, biting at my skin. My hands were raw and red, the rough texture of the rag scraping against my knuckles. I didn’t mind. I didn’t mind the pain, the hunger gnawing at my stomach, or the loneliness that pressed on me like an iron weight. I was used to it.I glanced out the cracked window at the gray sky that mirrored my feelings. The little shack we lived in sat at the base of the mountain, far away from any Pack. Isla had always told me that it was better this way—away from the people who would look at me and know that I wasn’t wanted, that I was abandoned by the very woman who should have loved me most.“Your mother didn’t want you, Celio,” Isla would say, her voice sharp and filled with disdain. “She threw you away like you were nothing

Luka's POV The day started out like any other. Mika, Sawyer, and I were playing in the woods behind the palace, chasing each other through the trees, our laughter echoing in the air. At seven years old, we were pretending to be fierce wolves on a hunt, leaping over fallen logs and dodging branches. It was perfect, like it always was when we were together.But then everything changed in an instant.I heard the thud first—a sound so sharp and heavy that it made my heart skip a beat. I stopped and turned around, the world seeming to move in slow motion as I saw Mika crumple to the ground, his face twisted in pain.“Mika!” I shouted, racing back to him. The sight that met me made my stomach lurch. His leg was twisted at an odd angle, and there was blood—so much blood—pouring out of a long, deep gash along his shin. It covered the grass, bright and red, and kept coming. I couldn’t breathe.Sawyer came running up, her eyes huge and frightened as she saw the blood. “Luka, what happened?” sh

Jaselyn's POV I took his hand, and he pulled me close, holding me from behind as we swayed gently to the music. His lips brushed my ear as he whispered, “You’re beautiful, you know that? Even after everything, you’re still the most beautiful woman I’ve ever seen. And I’m the luckiest man alive to have you.”Tears pricked my eyes, but they weren’t tears of sadness this time. They were tears of happiness, of gratitude. “Rion… you don’t know how much that means to me.”He kissed my neck softly. “You mean everything to me, Jas.”Suddenly, the music stopped, and a projector flickered on. I turned to see a slideshow of pictures—our memories together. Photos of us when we first arrived at the Pack, a few of the whole family, some from the day of our mating ceremony, which also doubled with the coronation, pictures of us as Alpha and Luna at a few events, including one of us at the Peace Ball. Pictures of me with the twins when they were born and finally, pictures of us with Luka and Mika. I
Cruel Fate: Chained To The Alpha Side Story 1
Jaselyn’s POVExhausted didn’t even begin to cover how I felt. I was beyond it. No, it was more like EXHAUSTED in capital letters, underlined and bold. It had been a few days since Luka and Mika were born, and though I’d prepared myself for the sleepless nights and constant feeding, nothing could have readied me for the complete overwhelm of being a new mother to two newborns at the same time. Rion helped as much as he could. He was always there, doing everything in his power to make things easier for me. But there was only so much even he could do. There were things I had to handle myself—breastfeeding, comforting them when they both decided to cry at the same time, managing the constant pain in my body that hadn’t fully recovered from the trauma of childbirth.Luka was a good feeder. He latched on almost immediately, eager to nurse, but Mika wasn’t doing as well. He struggled with breastfeeding, and that meant more time spent trying to get him to eat, more time stressing about whet
Cruel Fate: Chained To The Alpha Chapter 258
Jaselyn's POVFive years have passed since the birth of our twin boys.And in those years, Luka and Mika had grown into mischievous, spirited children who constantly kept me on my toes. They were inseparable, their bond unbreakable, and they moved through life with a shared sense of curiosity and adventure.Completely identical, they inherited the dominant Solstice genes with their ebony black hair, deep green eyes, and strikingly beautiful features. They were so similar in appearance that even their grandmother couldn’t tell them apart.Only Rion and I could tell which was Luka and which was Mika, and the boys often used this to their advantage, tricking everyone around them. But when they weren’t up to mischief, they were the sweetest children imaginable—kind, considerate, and always eager to bring a smile to my face.They were the best of friends, always looking out for each other. If one fell ill,

Rion's POV“That’s it, Luna,” the midwife encouraged. “The hardest part is over. Just one more push, and we’ll have him out.”Jaselyn nodded weakly, her face pale and slick with sweat. She gritted her teeth, her whole body trembling as she summoned the last of her strength. With a final, desperate scream, she pushed again, her body arching off the bed as she bore down with everything she had left.The baby slipped free with a gush of fluid and blood, his tiny body wriggling and slick in the midwife’s hands. “It’s a boy!” she announced, holding him up for us to see, his loud, piercing cries filling the room.My heart swelled with emotion as I gazed at our son, his tiny face scrunched up in a wail, his fists clenched and shaking. Tears blurred my vision as I looked at Jaselyn. “He’s beautiful,” I choked out, my voice thick with emotion. “Jas, you did it. You gave us a

Rion's POVI slammed my fist against the desk, sending papers flying. The frustration had been building for months, and now it was boiling over. "Dammit!" I cursed, pacing the room in a futile attempt to calm myself. We had conquered the Rain Forest Pack with ease, but it had been a hollow victory. Hadrian, that fool, had chosen to die rather than betray his cousin, Isla. He'd poisoned himself before we could get any information out of him. Another dead end.The Fishers were a twisted bunch. Part of me relished the thought of wiping them out for good, to rid the world of their poison. Isla had slipped through our fingers, and I was beginning to fear we’d never find her. If I could only get my hands on her, I would make her pay for taking Celio. She would wish she had never been born.Blade had been another disappointment, another dead end in our search for Celio. We had pushed him to his absolute limits, hoping that the pain and pressure would force

Jaselyn's POV“Maybe we could…shower together?” I suggested hesitantly. “It might help me relax.”Rion smiled softly, his eyes filled with understanding. “That sounds like a great idea. Come on, let’s get cleaned up.”We both undressed completely, and I followed him into the bathroom. He turned on the shower, adjusting the water temperature until it was just right, then we stepped under the warm spray together.The water cascaded over us, washing away the tension and the grime from the day. Rion wrapped his arms around me from behind, holding me close as the water streamed down our bodies. I leaned back against him, feeling the steady beat of his heart against my back. His touch was gentle, his hands moving over my skin with care, never lingering too long in one place.He washed my hair, his fingers massaging my scalp in slow, soothing circles. I closed my eyes, letting myself relax under

Jaselyn's POVI agreed to see Nae, but only because I needed to know if she could give me any information about where Isla might have taken Celio. It was my only lead, and I wasn’t about to let it slip through my fingers, no matter how much I despised Nae.Before heading to see her, I turned to Rion. His clothes were torn and stained with dirt and blood from the battle. He looked tired, and I could see the weariness in his eyes despite his usual confident stance. He needed rest, and he needed to be taken care of. After everything he had done for me, it was the least I could do for him.“Come with me,” I said softly, taking his hand. I led him back to our bedroom, feeling a mixture of nerves and determination. “Rion, I want our lives to go back to normal,” I began, my voice wavering slightly. “I want to feel close to you again.”He looked at me with a mix of surprise and concern. “Jas, you don’t h
