Hudson's POV

Black leaned in closer, lowering his voice. "There are several, but the most influential are the Donovan family. They're old money, and they've got their hands in everything—business, politics, even some shady underworld dealings. Then there's Councilman Drake. He’s been whispering in the elders' ears, ensuring Aiden looks like the perfect candidate for the throne."

"Damn," I muttered, trying to process the information. "So, he's not just going for the crown. He's making sure he has a fortress around him once he gets it."

"Exactly," Black confirmed. "And he's not stopping there. He's been solidifying alliances with almost every Alpha in the kingdom. They've pledged their loyalty to him, mostly out of fear or promises of power."

I shook my head, frustration bubbling up. "How did he manage to do all this so quickly?"

"He’s been planning this for years, boss," Black said. "While we were focused on other things, Aiden was making moves behind the scenes. He’s been collecting f

    Chloe’s POVThe door creaked open, and Ashley rushed in, tears streaming down her face. Without a word, she enveloped me in a tight hug, her body trembling as she sobbed. I could feel her warmth against my cold skin, and for a moment, the weight of my situation lifted slightly."Chloe," Ashley choked out between sobs, "I'm so sorry. This is all my fault."Her words took a moment to register, and when they did, I pulled back slightly, looking into her tear-streaked face. "No, Ashley, it's not your fault," I said firmly, though my voice wavered. "You didn't do anything wrong."Ashley shook her head, her eyes filled with guilt. "I should have given you something authentic that day. If I had, the baby wouldn't have survived, and you wouldn't be in this dungeon."I reached out and took her hands in mine, squeezing them gently. "Ashley, listen to me. I went to the hospital myself to get the drugs. I tried everything, but nothing worked. This isn't on you. It's my responsibility, and now I h

    Chloe’s POVAshley looked at me curiously, her brow furrowing. “What is it?”I took a deep breath, my hands trembling. “I need you to send a message to Aiden for me. I need him to know that I really want to see him.”Her face changed immediately, worry replacing the determination. “Chloe, you know that Aiden could have my head if he finds out I’m seeing you here in your prison. He’s very strict about these things.”I reached out and grabbed her hand, my grip desperate. “Please, Ashley. I promise Aiden won’t harm you. He’s the father of my child. He has to understand. Just help me pass the message to him because I can’t tell him myself.”Ashley hesitated, her eyes searching mine for any sign of reassurance. “Chloe, I’m really scared. What if he doesn’t listen to me? What if he gets angry?”“I know you’re scared,” I said, squeezing her hand tighter. “But you have to try. You’re the only one who can help me now. If you don’t, I don’t know what will happen to me or my baby. Please, Ashley

    Chloe's POVMy heart raced as I heard the guards’ footsteps nearing my cell. I stood up, my legs trembling beneath me, and wiped my sweaty palms on my dress. When the guard’s voice echoed through the corridor, announcing a visitor, my pulse quickened. The cell door creaked open, and I held my breath, hoping against hope.Aiden stepped into the dimly lit space, his face a mask of fury and hurt. He looked as handsome as ever, but there was an unmistakable coldness in his eyes that sent a shiver down my spine. His stride was purposeful, each step echoing the anger simmering just below the surface. I longed to rush to him, to throw my arms around him and beg for his forgiveness, but his demeanor held me back.“My love,” I whispered, taking a tentative step forward, my voice trembling with emotion.“Don’t you dare!” Aiden’s voice was like a whip crack, freezing me in place. His eyes blazed with anger, and I felt a chill wash over me. This wasn’t the Aiden I remembered, the man who once loo

    Chloe's POVClaire stood in the dimly lit room, her eyes cold and filled with contempt. Her appearance was immaculate as always, a stark contrast to my disheveled state. I could almost feel her disdain as she looked me up and down, her lips curling into a sneer.“Well, well, well,” she began, her voice dripping with mockery. “Look at you, Chloe. This cell suits you perfectly. Filthy and pathetic, just like you.”I clenched my fists at my sides, fighting back the urge to lash out at her. “What do you want, Claire?” I asked, my voice steady despite the turmoil inside me.She stepped closer, her heels clicking on the stone floor. “I wanted to see for myself just how low you’ve fallen. I must say, it’s even more satisfying than I imagined.”I took a deep breath, trying to keep my composure. “I don’t have time for your games. If you’re here to gloat, you’ve had your fun. Now leave.”Claire laughed, a cruel sound that echoed off the walls. “Oh, I’m not just here to gloat, Chloe. I’m here to

    Chloe's POVI stood there in shock, my heart pounding in my chest. Mason, my ex-fiancé, was the last person I expected to see in this hellish place. How had he found me? Why was he here?“How the hell did you come here?” I spat at him, my voice shaking with a mix of anger and disbelief.“Chill, baby girl,” Mason said, his lips curling into a smirk. “Don’t be too rash with your wonderful ex-fiancé.” He chuckled, a sound that sent shivers down my spine. I remembered why I hated him so much. Memories of his betrayal flooded back. He had cheated on me with my sister, and I had left my pack because of him.“What are you doing here?” I shot at him, my voice full of contempt.“Nothing special,” he said casually, leaning against the doorframe. “I heard about your illicit actions.” He laughed again, a mocking sound that made my blood boil. “So I came to see how I could help my baby girl.” His words dripped with sarcasm.“You heard wrong,” I said, my voice trembling. “I didn’t do anything bad.”

    Aiden's POVI paced around my room, my mind racing with thoughts of Chloe. What was I going to do with her? I was so angry that I felt like I might explode. If I took any action now, I might just have her killed. She was carrying another man's child, and I found out on the day we were supposed to get married. It was a huge abomination.I could feel my blood boiling. This was a disaster. Not only was my personal life in shambles, but now my brother Hudson would have an advantage over me. He'd use this to get ahead and take the throne. I couldn't let that happen."Shit!" I shouted, grabbing the contents on my table and pouring them out with my hands. Papers, a glass, and a few pens clattered to the floor. I didn't care. My world was falling apart, and I had to figure out what to do next.I tried to calm myself down, but it was impossible. The betrayal stung too much. Chloe, the woman I loved, had been unfaithful. She had ruined everything. How could she do this to me? And on our wedding

    Aiden's POV“It’s Lucas, my Lord,” came the reply.Lucas knocked softly on the door. I knew it was him even before he stepped in."Come in," I said, my voice already tinged with annoyance.Lucas opened the door and entered the room, bowing slightly. "My Lord," he began, "I'm sorry if I'm disturbing you, but you have a visitor.""Visitor? From who?" I snapped, my patience thin as ice."My Lord, I have no idea, but he said you both know each other," Lucas replied, looking a bit uneasy.I sighed deeply, feeling the anger bubbling up again. "Who is this mysterious visitor who wants to stress me out today? Can't this person just come another time?" I said, my voice growing louder with each word."I'm sorry, my Lord," Lucas said, his head lowering slightly. "I can tell the person to come another day." He started to turn towards the door."No," I said, my tone sharp. "Tell the person I will be with him shortly.""Okay, Your Highness," Lucas responded, turning back to face me.As Lucas was ab

    Years LaterThe grand festival continued into the night, but as the celebrations waned, a quieter, more reflective scene unfolded. Amidst the joy and laughter, Aiden and Chloe found themselves watching their children, Alex and Mia, play in the castle’s expansive gardens.Alex, now a young man of seventeen, had inherited his father’s strong, determined spirit. He was tall and confident, with a sharp gaze that seemed to miss nothing. His interactions with the other children were marked by a natural leadership, a blend of kindness and authority that spoke of his future role as a leader.Mia, a year younger than Alex, was equally impressive. She was vibrant and intelligent, with a keen sense of justice that mirrored her mother’s. Even at her young age, her ability to understand and empathize with others was remarkable. She moved through the crowd with a grace that drew people to her, her laughter and energy infusing the air with an infectious enthusiasm.As Aiden and Chloe watched their c

    Aiden’s POVI stood there, my mind racing with a mix of shock, betrayal, and disbelief. The flashing red and blue lights of the police cars painted an eerie glow on the faces of the people I once called family. Claire, Mason, and Hudson were being led away in handcuffs, their expressions a mixture of anger and resignation."It's funny," I muttered, more to myself than anyone else, "how people you call your family and blood would turn against you."Ashley, my best friend, stood beside me, her face pale. "I can't believe they had a hand in your son's disappearance," she whispered, her voice trembling. "All this time..."I shook my head, feeling a bitter laugh bubbling up. "Yeah, I know the world is wicked and all, but nah... this was too massive," I said, my voice rising with emotion. "Like wow... damn... so I really had fake bloods around me."The words felt foreign in my mouth, like speaking in a language I didn't quite understand. I watched as the police shoved Claire into the back o

    Claire’s POVI arrived at the abandoned building, its skeletal structure of steel beams and concrete looming ominously against the twilight sky. This place, once a construction site left unfinished, now served as a perfect hideout for clandestine activities. Pulling up in my car, I shut off the engine and stepped out, my senses on high alert. Just then, my phone buzzed with a call from Mason."Mason, where are they?" I asked, my tone brisk."They’re inside the building, Claire. Just walk in, and you’ll find the kid," Mason's voice crackled over the line."Alright," I replied, my eyes scanning the darkened entrance. "I’m heading in now."Walking towards the entrance, the crunch of gravel underfoot punctuated the silence of the evening. As I stepped inside, the dim light from the setting sun barely penetrated the building’s interior, leaving me in shadowed uncertainty. I called out as I moved further in, my voice echoing off the empty walls."Mason, I’m inside. I don’t see anyone yet."

    Claire’s POVI entered my room and slammed the door, shaking the walls with the force of my anger. My breath came in ragged gasps, and my heart pounded furiously in my chest. God!!!! Chloe!!!!!! After all I have done to get rid of you, you still were able to squeeze yourself back into my life. Wow... Nice. I muttered to myself, an evil smile playing on my lips as I paced back and forth, trying to calm the storm inside me. I will make sure you and Aiden never have peace of mind.The room was dimly lit, the curtains drawn tight to shut out the world. My desk was cluttered with papers and books, the remnants of a life I was trying to rebuild. But now, all I could see was red. Memories of Chloe flooded my mind – the times she outshone me, the moments she humiliated me, the way she always seemed to have Aiden's attention.I paused in front of the mirror, staring at my reflection. My eyes were wild, filled with a mix of rage and determination. "You always thought you were better than me, di

    Aiden’s POVThe room was dimly lit, and the smell of antiseptic was heavy in the air. I blinked slowly, trying to clear the fog from my mind. My head throbbed with a searing pain that felt like it was tearing through my skull. It took a moment for my surroundings to come into focus—the hospital room, the steady beeping of monitors, and the IV drip attached to my arm."Finally, you're awake," a familiar voice broke through the haze. It was Lucas, sitting in a chair beside my bed, his face a mixture of relief and concern."Lucas..." I croaked, my voice raspy and weak. "What... what happened?"He leaned forward, his eyes never leaving mine. "Aiden, we thought we lost you. Chloe managed to reach me after it all happened. She said you both were attacked."I struggled to sit up, wincing as pain shot through my body. "Yeah, we were... Is she okay? Are the kids okay?"Lucas hesitated, his silence stretching like a taut wire. I repeated my question, my voice rising in urgency. "Lucas, are Chlo

    Aiden’s POVI was beyond happy as I drove my family back with me to my pack. Having Chloe and my kids in the car was one of the happiest things that had ever happened to me. As I heard Mia and Alex having their playful banter in the back seat, I couldn’t help but smile. Yeah, finally, I had gotten what I had been missing all this while to myself."Why are you smiling really hard?" Chloe asked, her voice pulling me back from my thoughts."Ooh, nothing," I said, my smile widening."Hmm, you sure?" she asked, giving me a sideways glance."Yeah, just thinking about how perfect everything is right now," I replied, glancing at her briefly before focusing back on the road."I can see that," she said with a soft laugh. "It’s kind of contagious, you know.""What is?" I asked, curious."Your smile. The kids are smiling too. Look at them," she said, turning slightly to look at the back seat.I glanced in the rearview mirror and saw Mia and Alex giggling, their faces lit up with joy. It warmed my

"That's good news... because I know definitely he's returning with her head in a ba—""No, Your Highness," the guard interrupted, his tone more urgent. "It is said that they are returning as couples.""What! Couples? How?" I exclaimed, standing up so abruptly that my chair toppled over. "Isn't Aiden meant to kill her for him to have peace? Wasn't that what the goddess we paid instructed him to do?""Yes, sir, but—""But what?" I cut the guard off angrily. "See, get me Claire," I told him, even as I sat back angrily in the bathtub. "What sort of rubbish is this?"The guard nodded quickly and scurried out of the room. I leaned back in the tub, the warm water doing little to soothe my rising irritation. How could Aiden betray us like this? What could possibly have happened?Minutes later, Claire,

His stern expression softened as he looked at Chloe and then turned to me, confusion etched on his face.'What is going on here?' the alpha demanded. 'Who is this man, Chloe?'Chloe took a deep breath and stepped closer to her stepfather. 'Dad, this is Aiden. He was... he was my husband.'The alpha's eyes widened in shock. 'Your husband? The one who...''Yes,' Chloe interrupted, her voice trembling. 'The one who sent me away.'The alpha's gaze turned hard as he looked at me. 'You have a lot of explaining to do, young man.''I know,' I said, meeting his gaze. 'I owe Chloe and you an explanation.'Chloe gestured for us to sit. 'Let's all sit down and talk. There's a lot to discuss.'We moved to the sitting area, the tension in the room palpable.
