Selene’s POV The weight of the past few days had settled deep in my bones, leaving me restless and uneasy. Everywhere I turned, there was another mystery, another omen, another sign that something dark lurked just beneath the surface. I needed clarity, guidance, something to ground me before I lost myself in the chaos. That’s why I found myself walking through the quiet corridors of the house, heading toward the one person I knew could help me make sense of it all: Ronan’s mother, Lady Evanna. She was the matriarch of the clan, a woman of wisdom and strength, respected by all. If anyone could help me understand the strange deaths, the cryptic messages, and the prophecy looming over me, it was her. As I reached the entrance to her private chamber, I hesitated for just a moment before knocking. "Come in," her voice rang out, warm yet commanding. I pushed the door open and stepped inside. Lady Evanna sat by the window, her silver-streaked hair pulled back in an elegant braid. She

Keiran’s POV The moment I stepped into Nelly’s room, my entire body tensed. My father stood in the middle of the dimly lit space, towering over her, his presence thick with authority and quiet menace. Nelly stood a few feet away, stiff as a statue, her expression carefully guarded. But I knew her well enough to recognize the fear in her eyes, the way she subtly clenched her fists at her sides. Rage simmered beneath my skin. “What are you doing here?” I demanded, my voice sharp as steel. My father turned to me, his expression unreadable. “I should be asking you that, Keiran.” I took a step forward, positioning myself between him and Nelly. “You shouldn’t be in her room.” His eyes darkened, but he didn’t move. “I came here because I have questions,” he said coolly. “And I’m not leaving until I get answers.” I folded my arms across my chest. “What kind of answers?” He narrowed his gaze. “I want to know what you’ve been up to these past few days.” I felt Nelly stiffen behind me

Elias’ POVI adjusted the cuff of my sleeve, preparing to step into the car when the sound of heels clicking against the pavement made me pause.Turning my head, I wasn’t surprised to see Lora walking toward me, already dressed and looking far too smug for my liking.I sighed. “Where do you think you’re going?”Lora smirked. “With you, of course.”I gave her a blank stare. “And what exactly makes you think that’s happening?”“I overheard your conversation with someone named Selene.” She crossed her arms. “I figured it must be something interesting if you’re meeting with her.”I scoffed. “Selene is none of your business.”She let out a short laugh. “You really think you can stop me?”My grip tightened on the car door. I didn’t have time for this.“If you won’t let me ride with you, I’ll just follow in my own car,” she added, her tone light but challenging.I exhaled sharply. The last thing I needed was her showing up like an uninvited guest and making a scene in front of the alphas.“F

Elias’s POV"Have you made the calls to the other Alphas?" I asked Ronan as we stood near the entrance, away from prying ears."Yeah," he confirmed with a nod. "Luka and Keiran will meet us at the meeting center. Everything is set."I exhaled, relieved that at least one thing was going according to plan. But that relief was short-lived because, right on cue, Lora stepped forward, arms crossed, her gaze sharp with suspicion."Why aren’t you holding the meeting here, in Ronan’s house?" she asked, her voice laced with irritation.I barely held back a sigh. "It’s nothing for you to worry about, Lora."She scoffed. "Oh, really? If I’m supposed to be Luna, shouldn’t I be in the loop? You can’t keep pushing me out, Elias. I need to know what’s going on."Selene, who had been quiet up until now, shifted uncomfortably. Then, in a gentle voice, she said, "Lora, maybe you should—"But before she could finish, Lora snapped, "I didn’t ask you anything, so stay out of this."A heavy silence followe

Ronan’s POVThe tension in the room was suffocating.I sighed, running a hand through my hair. "Both of you, calm down." My voice was firm, but I knew it wouldn’t be enough.Luka smirked, leaning back in his chair like this was all a game to him. "You know, Keiran, it’s funny. You’re acting like a man in love with his little puppet, the girl your father bought for you." His eyes gleamed with mockery. "If you don’t care about her, why does it bother you so much if I take her for the night?"Keiran stiffened, his entire body humming with barely restrained rage. His fists clenched at his sides, and I could practically hear the crackle of tension between them."You’re pushing it, Luka," Keiran growled, his voice dangerously low.Luka shrugged. "Just calling it like I see it. Your reaction tells me everything I need to know."Keiran turned to me, his jaw clenched so tightly I thought his teeth might shatter. "Ronan, I’m telling you now, this is bad timing for this meeting. If Luka can’t re

Selene’s POVThe cool night air wrapped around me as I stepped outside, breathing in the crisp scent of fortune and of forceth. The moon was bright tonight, casting silver shadows across the clearing. I folded my arms, trying to shake off the uneasy feeling that had settled in my chest.The meeting had been tense. Too many strong opinions, too many conflicting emotions. A war was brewing, and we were at the heart of it.I heard footsteps approaching. My muscles tensed for a split second before I caught the familiar scent of sandalwood and warmth. I turned, my lips curling into a small smile as Elias emerged from the shadows.“Waiting for someone?” he asked, his voice as smooth as always.I arched a brow. “I could ask you the same thing.”Elias chuckled, stopping a few feet away. “I saw you slip out before the meeting ended. Figured you needed a moment.”I nodded. “It was… intense.”“That’s an understatement.” He studied me for a moment, his gaze sharp but gentle. “You doing okay?”I l

Selene's POVSelene stepped into the dimly lit hallway of the house, her mind still clouded with frustration from her earlier argument with Ronan. She had barely taken a few steps when she heard a voice calling her name."Selene," came the gentle but firm voice of Ronan's mother.Selene turned to see the older woman standing by the doorway of the sitting room, her sharp eyes studying her intently. She offered a small, knowing smile before motioning for Selene to join her."You didn't arrive with Ronan," she observed as Selene approached. "Is everything alright?"Selene hesitated for a moment before nodding. "Yes, I just took a cab back."Ronan's mother raised an eyebrow but said nothing, silently waiting for Selene to elaborate.With a sigh, Selene decided to be honest. "Ronan and I had an argument. He doesn't like how close I am with Elias. He thinks there's more to it than friendship."The older woman nodded knowingly, her expression one of mild amusement rather than concern. "Jealo

Nelly's POVThe clink of my fork against the plate was the only sound in the quiet dining room. The food was good, but my appetite had disappeared the moment I heard the front door open. My muscles tensed involuntarily. Keiran’s father had returned.I kept my head down, focusing on my half-eaten dinner, willing myself to appear indifferent. But even without looking up, I could feel his presence. He wasn’t the kind of man you could ignore. His footsteps were measured and deliberate, each one sending a ripple of unease through my body.He didn’t sit. He didn’t take off his coat. He just stood near the doorway, watching.“Where’s Keiran?” His voice was calm, but I knew better than to mistake it for kindness.I forced myself to swallow before answering. “I don’t know.”Silence. I could feel his stare drilling into me, heavy and expectant.“Don’t lie to me, Nelly.”I set my fork down carefully, my fingers curling slightly against the table. “I’m not lying.”He let out a quiet exhale throu

Keiran's POV The weight of the past few days pressed heavily on my shoulders as I grabbed my keys from the table. My mind was a storm of unanswered questions, but one thing was clear, I needed to meet with the alphas. They had to know about my father’s betrayal.I stepped out of the house, the night air cool against my skin. As I approached my car, a familiar voice called out behind me.“Keiran, where are you going?”I turned to find Nelly standing at the doorway, arms crossed, her eyes sharp with suspicion. I should have expected this. She was relentless, and after everything that had happened, she wouldn’t let me walk away without an answer.“I have a meeting,” I replied, keeping my voice even.“With who?” she pressed.“The alphas,” I admitted. “There are things that need to be discussed.”Her brows furrowed, and I knew she wanted to ask more. But I couldn’t tell her everything yet. Not until I was certain of the truth myself.“I’ll explain later,” I promised. “Just trust me.”Nell

Selene's POVThe air between us was thick with tension, a mixture of unspoken words and suppressed emotions. The training session had started as usual, swift movements, strategic attacks, and counterattacks. Ronan was relentless, pushing me harder with every strike, every dodge, and every forceful step. But this time, there was something different.Every time our bodies collided, I could feel the heat between us. Every time he corrected my stance, my pulse quickened. I had been trying to ignore it, to bury it beneath the weight of my responsibilities, but there was no denying the pull anymore.Ronan feinted left before sweeping my legs out from under me. I hit the ground with a frustrated grunt, panting as I stared up at him. He towered over me, his chest rising and falling with exertion. The moonlight cast a soft glow on his face, highlighting the sharp angles of his jaw and the intensity in his eyes.I was about to push myself up when he reached out his hand. I hesitated for a momen

Luka's POVA heavy silence filled the room as I sat across from my father, watching him with a gaze that had been hardened by years of unanswered questions. For so long, I had held resentment toward him, blaming him for the misfortunes that had plagued our family. But now, after spending more time with him and hearing pieces of our past, I felt the uneasy weight of uncertainty pressing down on my chest."You were just a boy when it happened," he said, his voice carrying a deep sorrow that I had never noticed before. "You couldn't have understood what truly went on that night."I clenched my fists, trying to brace myself for whatever truth he was about to reveal. "Then explain it to me," I demanded, my voice sharper than I intended. "No more secrets, Father. I deserve to know everything."He exhaled slowly, his eyes clouding with memories that clearly pained him. "That night… the night your mother died… it wasn’t the accident you’ve always believed it to be. It was something else. Some

Nelly's POVThe abandoned room smelled of dust and forgotten memories. I hesitated in the doorway, my heart pounding in my chest. This place had been untouched for years, left as a relic of the past. My sister’s past. Swallowing the lump in my throat, I stepped inside, the floorboards creaking under my weight. The dim light from the moon filtered through the cracked window, casting eerie shadows across the room.I ran my fingers over the old desk, brushing away the layer of dust that coated its surface. My sister’s belongings lay scattered, untouched, and frozen in time. I knew I had to find something, anything, that could explain what happened to her. Then, as I pulled open a drawer, a folded piece of parchment caught my eye.My hands trembled as I picked it up, carefully unfolding the aged paper. The writing was faint, hurried, almost desperate.They know. Keiran’s father knows. Trust no one.A chill ran down my spine. My sister had left this message behind, one last attempt to warn

Ronan's POVThe night air was crisp as I stepped outside, the cool breeze brushing against my skin like a fleeting whisper. I needed this walk, to clear my mind, to sift through the tangled thoughts that had taken root since my conversation with Gazelle.She had warned me about rivals, about the possibility of losing Selene to someone else. The idea had gnawed at me ever since, an unfamiliar feeling of unease settling deep in my chest. I wasn’t one to dwell on emotions, but something about Selene’s presence had started to unravel me in ways I didn’t fully understand yet.I walked aimlessly through the compound, my boots crunching softly against the gravel path. The moon cast an acastsver glow over the landscape, making everything seem both surreal and hauntingly beautiful. I had always enjoyed the quiet of the night, but tonight, my mind refused to settle.Rounding a corner, I nearly collided with someone. I instinctively reached out to steady them, my hands finding soft, warm skin.S

Ronan’s POVI sank into the worn leather of my study chair and allowed myself a rare moment of private amusement. The soft lamplight played across the pages of the old journal on my desk, but my thoughts were elsewhere, lost in the memory of Selene’s startled reaction the other night. I could still see the way her eyes had widened when I mentioned that it was time for me to secure a mate. The surprise, the mixture of indignation and uncertainty on her face, had sent a thrill coursing through me. I couldn’t help but smile to myself as I replayed that moment, a private indulgence that warmed me in ways few things ever did.It was a heady mix of triumph and longing, the sort of feeling that made me forget for a moment the heavy responsibilities I carried as an alpha. I was a man who had built his strength on discipline and control, yet at that moment, all my carefully constructed barriers had seemed to crumble, replaced by a vulnerability I wasn’t sure I wanted to confront. Still, it was

Keiran's POVThe house was eerily quiet when I walked in, the absence of Nelly’s usual soft humming and my father’s authoritative presence instantly putting me on edge. I stepped into the hallway and found one of the maids adjusting the curtains in the sitting room.“Where’s Nelly?” I asked, keeping my tone neutral, though my chest tightened with unease.The maid straightened up and turned to me with a polite nod. “Miss Nelly left a few hours ago, sir.”I frowned. “With my father?”“No, sir. She left alone.”That caught my attention. Nelly rarely ventured out by herself unless she had a solid reason. “And my father?”“He left shortly after, sir.”Something about that made me uneasy. The timing was too convenient, too suspicious. My father wasn’t the type to involve himself in trivial matters, which meant he was up to something. The question was, did it involve Nelly?I strode past the maid and made my way upstairs, shrugging off my jacket. The moment I entered my room, I pulled out my

Nelly’s POVThe club loomed before me like a dark monolith, its neon lights pulsing against the night sky. I stepped out of the cab, my heart pounding in my ears. Tonight, I wasn’t here for the usual distractions or fleeting pleasures; I was here to find answers about my sister, Nikki. The thought of her being lost in this wretched world, her whereabouts unknown, sent a chill through my veins.I paused a moment on the cracked pavement outside the club, taking in the imposing atmosphere. This place was even larger and more foreboding than the club Keiran had taken me to before. Its massive facade and the thrum of bass that vibrated through the walls made me feel both small and insignificant. I shook off the sense of dread and made my way to the entrance, my steps resolute despite the fear that gnawed at me inside.Inside, the club was a cacophony of sound and motion. Music blared from massive speakers, and the air was thick with smoke and the mingling scents of sweat and expensive colo

Luka’s povThe engine of my car rumbled to a stop in front of the grand yet eerily quiet mansion. The place that once felt like home now seemed like a distant memory, a shadow of the past I had vowed never to return to. Yet here I was, gripping the steering wheel so tightly my knuckles turned white.I took a deep breath, exhaling slowly, trying to steady my nerves. Why the hell did I come back?It was Lawrence’s last visit. His words had stuck with me, nagging at the edges of my mind, forcing me to reconsider. I had initially thought of coming here just to mock my father, to throw in his face how much I had built myself up without him, how little I needed him. But now, as I sat in front of the house, staring at the imposing gates, that confidence wavered.Still, I shoved those thoughts aside and stepped out of the car. The moment I did, the house staff turned toward me, their eyes widening in surprise before quickly bowing their heads in greeting.“Welcome back, sir,” one of them said
