Kira

Since D'Angelo returned from the trip, I observed how bothered and detached he seemed. He was reticent, his gaze wandered, and always lost in thought; his deeply troubled heart influenced even his sleeping habits.

Sex was amazing, though, and it seemed like our only way of bonding. We did it everywhere: under the sheets, in the bathroom, outside under the stars, in the kitchen, and his car.

But he was drifting away from me, and I had to know why. He gave me a noncommittal shrug the first time I asked about it.

We lay shoulder to shoulder on the plush couch in the living room, our bodies sinking into the cushions. I focused my attention on the

crackling fireplace, watching the dancing flames. D'Angelo's body language spoke volumes: his shoulders hunched forward, showing how tense he was, and his gaze remained fixed on the ceiling, lost in thought.

"Something is wrong, D'Angelo. You've been unusually quiet lately. I understand you're worried by this new development, but what is bo

    While walking to the library, I noticed Caleb approaching from the opposite direction, right at me, but one of the bodyguards stopped him with a baton."Back off. She's not allowed to communicate with anyone," the bodyguard stated firmly.Caleb looked surprised, and I had to reassure the bodyguard with a nod that it was okay for him to approach."He's not a threat," I said softly to one. He reluctantly agreed and stepped aside so I could pass. Caleb looked guilty as hell and refused to meet my gaze. I leaned against the wall and waited for him to speak. He appeared hesitant, fidgeting with his hands, unsure how to begin the conversation."Hey, Kira. I just wanted to apologize for that horrible incident. I regret not helping you out.”His voice was hoarse, and his gaze refused to leave the ground."I just wanted to clarify that I had no involvement in whatever they did to you," he added. "I know my sister, Carol, is vengeful and wants to harm you, and Alexis believes you're the reas

    Without any idea what D' Angelo was up to, he announced that I needed to accompany him somewhere later and that I needed to get my hair done.My mom and Amari accompanied me to finish my hair and nails while the bodyguards watched us. Before we could enter the salon, the bodyguards had to force every client and over sixty percent of the staff to leave. The place was heavily guarded, with no entrance or exit."This is insane," Amari whispered as we walked in. "D'Angelo is incredibly protective of you."The salon was silent, and I saw the bodyguards in the mirror. My heart pounded in my chest, wondering what D'Angelo was up to.My mother stood beside me as the stylist washed, trimmed, and styled my hair into a perfect chignon. The stylist's movements were too quick, and it was difficult for her to remain calm throughout the process.After that, I had my nails done in French tips and chose a nude color. A dress awaited me at home, and D'Angelo had already changed into a charcoal gray bla

    D’AngeloThings were looking up, and I was following every instruction given to me by my supporters. Taking Kira to the couples retreat was instrumental in ensuring I made my statement.Not only did I need to reassure her that I loved her and would never leave her side, I realized I was foolish all this while to be afraid of what my pack mates would think.But not anymore.If the same people I fought tooth and nail for could divide and plot my downfall, why did I need to sacrifice anything for them?I was going to flaunt my love for Kira to the world and show her that she didn't have to worry about anything as long as I was there for herStep one was successful, and now it was time for step two. I had called Leo earlier, giving him thirty minutes to come to the pack house since he refused to disclose the so-called hospital his wife and kid were in.Sitting in the main living room, I waited for the bastard to arrive. I glanced at the clock; it was nearly five pm, meaning he was over an

    AlexisMy father's face was a glowing mask of rage. He looked at me as if I was a disgusting piece of scat, a look that he wore so often.He was ashamed of me and harbored intense hatred towards D'Angelo for his actions against me. But I hated his direct transfer of aggression onto me. He acted as though I held power over a grown adult's emotions as if I could dictate how they should feel.D'Angelo didn't want me as a lover. To him, I was just his baby mama. My brother, Caleb, stood behind me, and his eyes drew together in an angry frown.Caleb wasn't fond of my over-demanding outbursts and was very different from me and Carol, but one thing was for sure: he loved us and was ready to protect us from any abuse we might receive under our fathers’ hands. I took great pride in this, and the fact that Caleb had my back when everyone else was against me and that he could stand up to my father without fear was comforting.One of the maids, Mary Ann, notorious for her habit of eavesdropping,

    KiraTensions were running high at the Omega buildings due to the recent threats, vandalisms, and unrest committed upon us by the higher werewolves. I didn't need anyone to tell me that I was the target of their actions. Scared as hell, I wanted this to be over because no matter the protection D'Angelo assured me, he couldn't always be with me. Now that he'd made it clear to the public that he knew Leo was an enemy, he and his men were hiding. From upstairs, I watched a nervous Omega woman glancing over her shoulder as she ran into the first building, and my eyes scanned the area to find out why she was running. "Lock the doors," Eldar Logan yelled from downstairs. With horror, I watched some young delta wolves rush into the Omega space and use spray cans filled with paint, ruining our walls with cruel words and obscenities. They even wished us death. The scene played inside my head like a nightmare. Their actions triggered a wave of panic among the rest of us, especially when th

    D'AngeloThe tribe alpha summoned us for a meeting, and we gathered in the tribe leader, alpha George's chamber, taking our seats around the circular table. Over twenty alpha leaders from different packs convened to discuss my situation. Since I was the focal point of the discussion, I had to stand and address them directly.As soon as all eyes landed on me, I swallowed nervously, avoiding their scrutinizing gazes. I didn't want to be here at all.My pride took a blow as it was obvious that some were present only to humiliate me. They weren't hiding it. Hatred boiled within me, suffocating me like a black curtain, especially when Javier kept on mocking me. My gaze narrowed at him as he spoke. "D'Angelo, we deeply care about you, and even a child can see that you are destroying your pack's legacy. Your father would be deeply offended and ashamed of you, wherever he is." I fell into a tight-jawed silence, with anger slicing all over me. "Stop pretending, you bastard," I growled before

    KiraThanks to the mental distress that arose from my disturbing thoughts of D'Angelo, I paced back and forth in the room with my eyes fixed on my phone in my hand.I last heard from him over ten hours ago, and now his phone is switched off. I couldn't help but imagine the worst. I needed to be sure that he was fine.Because of this, I couldn't sleep. All I did was call and wait and hope.I had repeatedly questioned the bodyguards about their boss's whereabouts, but they remained clueless. It made my heart race with growing anxiety."Kira, please come to bed and get some sleep," my mom pleaded with me. "D'Angelo is fine. Maybe he doesn't need any distractions.""No," my voice trembled. "This was the same thing that happened during the war. I don't want any surprises. If he was okay, he would have called and not left me hanging like this."My mom sat there, not knowing what to do, while I continued pacing back and forth, sending a ton of messages and voicemails, hoping that he would ca

    D’AngeloBreathing heavily, I pressed my back against the tree trunk, wiping away the sweat that streamed down my forehead, trickling along my face and neck. My muscles ached from the rigorous training session with the warriors, and my chest rose and fell with each labored breath, consumed by exhaustion.This was the sacrifice we had chosen to make, preparing ourselves to endure any pain. We committed to training relentlessly, pushing ourselves to fight with the strength and speed necessary to defeat Leo.Shutting my eyes, I felt the rough bark of the tree beneath me, and my ears picked up the distant chatter of the other soldiers as they went on break.We all had pushed ourselves to our limits, and even when my muscles screamed in protest, I continued fighting. My eyes snapped open when Hugo approached me, holding a water bottle."You okay, Alpha?" he asked, handing me the water, and I took a long gulp, loving how the liquid slid down my throat and revived me.Hugo was about to leav

    Sophia looked over her shoulder and shot Iris a glance from the corner of her eye.She hated her so much that anytime she saw her, her skin would crawl.

    Iris I struggled to open my eyes, but my eyelids felt heavy, and my vision was blurry. When I finally managed to pry them open, the world around me was hazy.Confused, I closed my eyes again, trying to clear the fog from my mind. I opened them a second time, and my vision was clearer, but I realized that something was amiss.I tried to sit up, but a sharp pain shot through my back, making me gasp. I reached around and felt a thick layer of sterile dressing covering my skin.Then the memories of that horrific moment came flooding back: the scorching acid pouring down my back, the pain that seemed never-ending.Damn it, I couldn't believe that this wasn't just some nightmare in my head—it was all too real. My back would never be the same again, all because of some jealous psycho's twisted actions.My heart broke miserably, and I swallowed hard. Whoever was behind this was heartless, and all for what?

    AdonisI was furious when I discovered that some sick bastard dared to douse Iris's body with acid.It felt like a cruel joke, a sickening slap in the face—and I couldn't wrap my head around something so despicable that could happen to a pure, harmless soul. I blamed myself for letting her leave the safety of my sight. If only she had stayed a little longer, this terrible act could have been prevented.The thought of what she must be going through filled me with rage beyond words.Machines were beeping, and medical staff in scrubs were working quickly to attend to her. My mind was chaotic as I paced around the small clinic."Dammit," I swore, breathless with rage. After they had gotten her out of danger, I was allowed to see her.I gently brushed a hair off her face while the highly skilled medical staff efficiently attended to her wounds."We've identified that the acid used is a mild form, and fortunately, it didn't affect her internal organs. She will recover quickly," one of them

    🔞🔞🔞Adonis and I lay side by side on the grass. It had been over twenty minutes since the power outage had enveloped the mansion, and boy, did we love it. We had all the privacy we needed to explore our bodies. I stifled my laughter when Adonis wrenched my skirt up around my ass. He was inordinately pleased with himself at that moment, which only intensified my smile as I pulled his shirt off and kissed him softly on his chest.'Surely you're not thinking about having sex here in the open,' I said playfully into his mouth as he pulled me tighter against his naked body. He smiled as he nipped my jawline softly before kissing me harder.“Who's going to try and stop us, right? There's nowhere else I'd rather be than right here with you.”“And what if someone sees us? What if there are guards patrolling the house? Or if the power comes back on?”Adonis covered my mouth hungrily before pulling out a pack of condoms. 'Well then, I guess we'll have to hurry because I have no desire to le

    The girls were fuming with envy toward me, and I noticed how they would frown and sulk whenever I walked into the room.They were unnecessarily rude, talking behind my back and giving me fake smiles, and even those who were nice enough were just putting on an act.Jealousy couldn't be hidden, no matter how hard they tried to mask it. The way the girls were acting toward me was unsettling. Their envy consumed them so much that I worried they might do something to hurt me.I hoped they wouldn't attempt to poison my food.Sitting cross-legged on my bed, I pulled out a classic literature book I had taken from Adonis' study and tried to ignore the subtle insults from the other girls.The trick was to act like I didn’t hear them, but I couldn’t deny that their words stung. It was hard to remain calm.“Let’s be real,” one of the girls, who seemed the most spiteful, spoke up. “Alpha Adonis might have flirted with other girls too. He’s probably testing to see who’s the best before making his c

    The sound of footsteps outside her cell drew Helena’s attention back to the present. She tensed as Victoria, Alexander’s whore, approached her, clasping her hands together in a tight grip. The hatred Helena felt for Victoria surged to the surface, burning hot and fierce. She had never known she could hate anyone more than she hated this woman. Victoria needed to be punished for causing Mona so much pain, even up until her death.Victoria’s smirk was malicious, her satisfaction evident as she raised her chin high, wild-eyed. She looked down at Helena with a smug expression, as if relishing in her suffering.“So, how is the confinement?” Victoria asked, her voice dripping with false sweetness.Helena shrugged and turned away, refusing to give her the satisfaction of a response. “What do you think?”“You should eat,” Victoria said indifferently, setting a tray of food on the floor. “We’re just trying to find your niece.”“I won’t touch anything from you,” Helena spat back, her voice full

    Helena sat on the cold, gray stone floor of the dank cell in Alexander’s house. The bastard had locked her up for three days. The stone was rough and unforgiving beneath her, seeping its chill through her thin clothing. She leaned against the damp wall, the smell of mildew and decay filling her nostrils, wondering when this madness would finally be over.Her thoughts kept circling back to her husband, Bruno. A spineless coward, that’s what he was. It angered her to no end that he hadn’t come for her. But even more than her own predicament, she was worried about Iris. The girl’s safety weighed heavily on her heart.Helena sensed danger closing in. She needed to warn Iris to flee before it was too late. She had seen the evil in Alexander’s eyes, the way he relished in others’ pain. He was capable of anything.

    When I entered Adonis’ room, the lighting was dim, just bright enough to reveal his sleeping figure. The heavy curtains barely let in any light.Adonis lay still, his powerful frame resting under the covers. Despite his powerful Lycan nature, he looked fragile, as if strong medications had knocked him out.I stood there, my mind confused. How could someone as powerful as Adonis fall ill? His blood was stronger than most werewolves', making him more resistant to illnesses and diseases than any of us. Fred’s gaze lingered on me, as if he could read my thoughts. His smile was gentle, but it didn’t reach his eyes. There was surely something behind it."Don’t worry about him," Fred assured me. "It’s just stress. I’m sure when he wakes up, he’ll feel a lot better.""Stress?" I echoed, trying to make sense of it. "What’s causing him stress? He seemed fine the last time I saw him."Fred ran a hand through his hair, looking uncomfortable. He looked away and his eyes avoided mine as if the ans
