The Alpha’s Hidden Heiress Chapter 155
DANTE'S POVThe room smelled like antiseptic and despair. It was small and cramped, with white walls that made everything feel colder. Linda lay still on the bed, her face pale against the hospital sheets. For days, we had been here, waiting, hoping. Her parents, Cynthia and Alpha Gregory of the Red Moon pack, hadn’t left her side. My mother, her eyes hollow from lack of sleep, stood behind them. The tension in the room was a living thing, heavy and suffocating.I leaned against the wall, arms crossed, trying to calm my racing thoughts. Finn paced near the door, his boots scraping the floor. None of us spoke much. What could we say? Linda had been in this strange state since the fall and none of us understood what was happening.Just then, Linda stirred. It was barely a twitch at first—a flutter of her fingers. Cynthia gasped, clutching Gregory’s arm so hard he winced. My mother straightened, her hand flying to the silver pendant she always wore.“Linda?” Cynthia whispered, her v

DANTE'S POV The room was still tense, even after the doctor left. Cynthia had asked the question we were all thinking, her voice sharp and full of disbelief: “Are you serious?” And Dr. Hayes had looked at her with that calm, clinical expression he always wore and said, “Yes. Memory loss is common in cases like this. Give her time. With the right care and support, she’ll probably get better.”But even as he said it, I could see the doubt in his eyes. We had taken Linda back to her room after that, her movements slow and her face blank, as if she wasn’t entirely there with us. She didn’t speak much, just stared at the walls while her parents fussed over her, trying to make her comfortable.I stayed in the corner, silent. What was I supposed to do? Finn was gone, off handling pack business, and it left me standing awkwardly in the shadows, watching this whole mess unravel.It was later that evening when the tension boiled over. Moss, one of the pack's senior healers, knocked softly o

ARIA'S POV The cave was eerily quiet, and for the first time in hours, we weren’t moving. As I leaned against the damp rock wall, I was grateful for the chance to rest. My legs were on fire from all the crawling, and I didn’t realize how badly I needed a break until we stopped.“This is nice,” I mumbled, more to myself than to Kieran, who stood near the entrance of the passage. He was watching the path we had just crawled out from, scanning the shadows with his sharp gaze.“Don’t get too comfortable,” he replied, his tone serious. “We can’t stay here for long.”“Why not? It’s quiet,” I said, pulling my knees to my chest. “And my legs might actually fall off if I move right now.”Kieran sighed and turned towards me. “Aria, we don’t know what’s out here. This cave might feel safe, but it’s not. We need to find the sapphire and get out of this cursed place as soon as possible.”I groaned, resting my head on my knees. “Fine. Just five more minutes. Pretty please?”“You said that ten min

KEIRAN’S POV Aria’s body hit the ground before I could stop her, crumpling like a puppet whose strings had been cut. I froze for half a second, my mind racing. What had just happened? My heart sank as I rushed to her side and knelt beside her, shouting her name.“Aria! Aria, stay with me!” I called, shaking her gently, but her eyes were closed, her face pale. The sound of her shallow, uneven breaths made my chest ache. She looked so fragile—too fragile.That’s when I saw it—the bite mark on her neck, red and swollen, with faint black streaks spreading out from it. My stomach twisted as realization hit me. The poisonous bats.“No, no, no,” I muttered, running a hand through my hair. My fingers were trembling as I touched the mark. The poison was spreading—fast. “Damn it, no.”She was still breathing, but it was weak. “Aria, you’re going to be okay. You hear me? Just…just hang in there.”Without a second thought, I leaned down and pressed my lips to the bite, sucking out as much of t

KEIRAN'S POV The voice stopped me in my tracks, freezing my muscles as if someone had poured ice down my back. I didn’t turn around. I couldn’t. My mind raced as I tried to figure out what to do.“Kieran? Is that really you?” the voice called again, louder this time. It was deep, commanding. A man’s voice. I clenched my fists at my sides, trying to keep my breathing steady. My whole body was tense, like a cornered animal.Why now? Why here?The sound of approaching footsteps made my heart pound harder. Whoever it was, they were coming closer—too close.“Kieran!” The voice was almost right behind me. Just then, I felt a strong hand grab my arm and I stiffened.“I knew it! It’s you!” The voice was sharp, filled with surprise, maybe even a bit of anger.Before I could think, I pulled my arm away and turned around, pushing the man back. He stumbled but didn’t fall, his eyes widening in shock.“Hey!” he shouted. “What’s your problem?”I didn’t wait for him to say anything else. My heart

ARIA'S POV The nurse’s voice trembled as she glanced nervously at the elderly man standing beside her. “Professor, I’m sorry to interrupt,” she said hesitantly, “but are you saying the man in the mask is Kieran? The Kieran we all know?”The room fell silent, her words hanging heavily in the air. I looked at the man she had called “Professor.” He had the kind of face that told a story—a face worn by years, with deep lines etched into his skin and eyes that carried a weight I couldn’t quite place. He had an air of authority about him, as though people listened when he spoke without question.I blinked, trying to process what was happening. The Kieran? What did that even mean? And why did it feel like there was so much I didn’t know?The professor’s gaze shifted to me, his piercing eyes studying my face as if searching for answers I wasn’t even sure I had. The nurse, on the other hand, was practically vibrating with nervous energy, her excitement thinly veiled beneath her professional

ARIA'S POV The room was too quiet, the kind of quiet that makes you hear your own thoughts a little too loudly. I sat on the edge of the hospital bed, my fingers picking nervously at the blanket covering my lap. The fluorescent lights buzzed faintly overhead, casting a pale glow on the plain white walls. A faint antiseptic smell lingered in the air, and the soft beeping of monitors in nearby rooms broke the silence.I was still alone. The professor had left hours ago, and though I had tried to relax, I couldn’t stop replaying his words in my mind.“Kieran is our lost prince. And without him, our pack has been suffering.”My head was spinning. Was it really true? Was Kieran really the Alpha heir he described? And if so, why hadn’t he told me? I thought I knew him—or at least, I thought I was beginning to. But now… now I wasn’t so sure.I stared at my phone for what felt like forever, debating what to do. Should I reach out to him? Should I pretend nothing happened and wait for him to

KEIRAN'S POV It was a bright, cool morning, and the air smelled faintly of pine and earth. I remember walking to class with my bag hanging off one shoulder, feeling the steady rhythm of my boots crunching against the gravel. Medical school wasn’t just a pursuit—it was my passion. My parents had always encouraged me, their belief in my potential steady as a heartbeat.“Medicine will teach you discipline,” my father often said, his deep voice filled with pride. “It’ll help you understand your people better, to care for them and to lead them.”I smiled at the memory as I walked into the lecture hall that day, the scent of coffee and ink carrying through the air. The room was filled with a quiet buzz of chatter, the sound of notebooks being flipped and pens clicking. It was just another ordinary day—or so I thought.The class had barely started when the teacher’s phone rang. His face, calm and focused just moments before, suddenly clouded over with tension. He glanced at me, then back

DANTE'S POV The drive to the hospital was a blur. My hands were holding the steering wheel so tightly that my knuckles turned white. I glanced over at Aria again and again. She was silent, curled up in the passenger seat, staring ahead with a blank expression. Her face was pale, and her body shook with every bump in the road."Aria," I said softly, my voice breaking. "Are you okay? Please, say something. Anything at all."She didn’t respond, only closing her eyes tightly as if she were trying to block out the world. My chest tightened, guilt suffocating me. This was my fault. Every tear, every tremble, it was all because of me.When we finally reached the hospital, I didn’t waste a second. I jumped out of the car, ran to her side, and lifted her into my arms. She didn’t resist but held onto me weakly. I burst through the hospital doors, my voice loud."I need help! Someone help her now!"A nurse rushed forward, her eyes wide. "What happened?""She’s been through… something terrib

ARIA'S POVThe three men had their filthy hands all over me, laughing as though they had just won a lottery.“Look at her,” one of them sneered, his eyes scanning me like I was some kind of prize. “This one is going to make us famous. Just wait till the camera gets this.”Another man chuckled as he adjusted the camera on the tripod. “Don’t rush, man. We’ve got all night. Let’s make this a show they’ll never forget.”My heart pounded as I struggled to move, to do anything, but my body wouldn’t cooperate. “Please,” I whimpered, tears streaming down my face. “Please, don’t do this. I’ll give you money, houses, cars. Anything. Just let me go. My family is rich.”“Money?” the tallest one scoffed, kneeling beside me. “What’s the fun in that? Nah, sweetheart, we’re here for something better.” He leaned closer, his disgusting breath hot against my face. “And you? You’re… so perfect and beautiful. I just can't wait to see what you got down there.”The third man smirked, crossing his arms as he

ARIA'S POV One of them smirked, his gaze raking over me like I was a piece of meat. “She’s pretty enough,” he said, his voice rough and cold. “We could have some fun with her.”My blood ran cold. My breath hitched as I stared at Linda, disbelief and terror washing over me. “Linda, no,” I whispered, my voice shaking. “Please, don’t do this.”She looked at me, her smile sharp and venomous. “Why not? You’ve ruined my life. Why shouldn’t I ruin yours?”Tears streamed down my face now, and I couldn’t stop them. “Linda, please. I didn’t do anything. I swear. Just let me go.”She squatted again, her face inches from mine. “You don’t get it, do you?” she said softly. “This isn’t just about today. This is about everything. Every time you smiled at him, every time he talked about you, every time I had to wonder if he was thinking about you instead of me. You took him from me, Aria. And now, I’m taking everything from you.”Her words cut deeper than any knife. I wanted to scream, to fight back,

ARIA'S POV I woke up to the sound of my phone buzzing. Over and over, it wouldn’t stop. At first, I thought it was just my alarm, but when I opened my eyes, it wasn’t the usual beep. It was vibrating like crazy on the nightstand.Rubbing my eyes, I reached for it, still half-asleep. Messages lit up the screen. Missed calls too. I squinted, trying to focus. The first message I saw was from Adam: "Are you with Dante?"My heart jumped a little. Why would Adam ask me that? And why on earth would I be with Dante?I typed back slowly, still confused: "No, I’m at home sleeping. Why?"I hadn’t even hit send when Finn’s name popped up on the screen. He was calling. I swiped to answer, still lying in bed.“Finn?” My voice cracked.“Aria!” Finn’s voice was sharp, loud, and panicked. “Dante is gone! He ran away from the wedding!”“What?” I sat up so fast my blanket fell off me. “What do you mean he ran away? Where would he go?”“That’s what I’m asking you!” Finn snapped. “Are you with him? Di

LINDA'S POV The entire mansion was filled with a lot of activity. My mother, friends, and even the servants were all around me, moving around quickly like moths drawn to a warm light.The air smelled of lavender and sage, and the faint sound of chants could be heard from the ceremonial grounds outside. It was finally my wedding day, the moment I had waited for my entire life, and I couldn’t stop smiling.I was marrying the man I had always loved. Dante.“Hold still, Linda,” my mother said sharply, adjusting my veil for the hundredth time. “You don’t want to look like a mess walking down the aisle, do you?”I rolled my eyes but stayed still. “I’m fine, Mother. It’s perfect.”She stepped back and looked at me with a rare softness in her eyes. “You’ve finally gotten what you wanted,” she said, her voice quiet, almost emotional. “You’re about to marry the man you love. I hope you’re happy.”“I am, Mother,” I said, my voice steady but full of excitement. “I couldn’t be happier.”Her lips

ARIA'S POV I tried so much to look calm, though my heart felt uneasy. Dante hesitated, his eyes scanning the room before landing back on me. To my surprise, he asked softly, “Can we go outside? Maybe to the balcony?”I glanced at him, skeptical. Part of me wanted to say no and walk away, but his tone wasn’t demanding. It felt... vulnerable. After a moment of hesitation, I nodded and followed him.The balcony was quiet, with only the faint hum of voices from the banquet hall in the background. The night air was cool, and the moon hung low, creating a soft light over everything. Dante leaned on the railing, looking down at his hands as if trying to find the right words.For a moment, he didn’t say anything.I tilted my head, waiting for him to speak. When he finally did, his words caught me off guard.“Aria... do you still like the colour blue?”I blinked, not sure how to respond. “Blue?” I repeated, raising an eyebrow.He nodded quickly, almost nervously. “Yeah, blue. It used to be

ARIA'S POVA few minutes after Alpha Ezra’s warning, the room was still buzzing with tension as reporters continued to talk over one another. At that moment, I felt overwhelmed. Just as I was about to speak again, Dante finally took action. He raised his hand, and his commanding presence alone seemed to quiet the room.“Enough,” he said, his voice firm but calm. “This is not the time or place for such personal interrogations.”The murmurs died down a bit, but a few persistent reporters persisted.“Alpha Dante,” one said, stepping forward, “don’t you think the public deserves to know more about Aria’s personal life?”Dante’s gaze hardened, and he gestured towards me. “This event is about Aria’s work, her accomplishments, and her talent. I suggest we keep our focus where it belongs.”There was a moment of hesitation, the reporters glancing at one another. Finally, a few nodded, seemingly moved by his words.“I think we can all agree,” Dante continued, his tone softening, “that Aria ha
The Alpha’s Hidden Heiress Chapter 197
ARIA'S POV My heart was pounding so much, but I tried to keep my expression calm, even as I noticed Linda stepping forward. She was smiling, a look of smug confidence plastered across her face.Linda reached for Dante’s arm and linked hers with his as if to solidify her claim. Her eyes darted towards me, a glint of satisfaction in them. “Dante and Aria are already a thing of the past,” she said loudly, her voice carrying over the murmurs of the crowd. “Their relationship ended long ago.” She turned her head slightly, her expression softening into something almost sweet. “I am going to marry Dante, and you are all welcome to attend the wedding.”Her words hung in the air like a heavy curtain, causing a stir among the crowd. Cameras flashed continuously, capturing every angle of Linda’s victorious pose.I saw Dante’s jaw tighten slightly as if he wasn’t entirely comfortable with her words. He avoided my gaze, his eyes instead fixed on the floor.“Linda,” I said calmly, stepping forward
The Alpha’s Hidden Heiress Chapter 196
ARIA'S POV Just when I thought that I was done answering unexpected questions, someone else suddenly stood up, his pen ready over his notepad. “Ms. Aria,” he began, “you mentioned your identity as the Griffith princess earlier. Why did you keep your identity hidden for so long?”The whispers started again, but I took a deep breath. “My identity wasn’t something I intentionally hid,” I replied. “It was just not relevant to my work. I wanted to build a career based on my talent, not my name.”The whispers grew louder, and another reporter quickly followed up. “Did your family know about this? Were they supportive of your decision to stay under the radar?”I hesitated for a moment before answering. “My family has always supported me in their own way. They understood that I needed to find my path independently.”A woman in the crowd raised her hand, her tone sharp. “Does that mean the Griffith Alpha approved of you working as a designer instead of taking on more... traditional duties as
