The Runaway Twin: Claimed By The Alpha Chapter 20
Madeline’s POV“You’ve been staring at them for ten minutes now. Thinking about joining?”Right after eating, we stood at the corner of the training field, watching the others spar in pairs. I was lazily staring at the front while Helena was sipping water from her bottle, giving me side-eyes every now and then.My eyes landed on Jaxon, who was sparing quite aggressively with his partner while giving me quick glances. “I’d rather not add more fuel to the fire.”It’s my break anyway. I’m not obligated to join the training.Helena grinned, turning to her side to face me. “Smart choice. Jaxon’s still sore about losing to you. If you step on that field, he’ll make sure you regret it.”I snickered and rolled my eyes. “He’s not exactly subtle about it.”She shook her head but snorted a little in understanding. “Well, it wasn’t really his best suit.”Silence enveloped us for a little while, but I could feel her staring at me, studying my reactions. “You’re still thinking about earlier, aren’t

Madeline’s POVChill ran through my spine at his question. Were they? Were those people from the palace? Did they already know about me hiding in here?But if there’s one pack the palace was cautious about, it would be this pack. There’s no way they’d be foolish enough to have the palace warriors round up this pack, much less send a spy in here.Were they?“I… I don’t know…” I replied instead. He’d kill me or throw me away if he learned it's possible that the threat had soemthing ot do with me.He stood right in front of me, eyes looking down into mine as he spoke dangerously, “If you’re keeping things from me, you’re putting my entire pack at risk.”I swallowed hard. “I’m not lying.”He didn’t completely believe me as he hissed at me before grabbing his jacket from the stand and gesturing for me to follow him. “Which side of the border? I’ll handle it.”“What exactly did you see?” he asked quietly, trying not to scare off anyone if there was still someone left.We walked alongside ea

Madeline’s POVI surveyed the surroundings first before I ran toward the forest, standing beneath the tree where Felix was hiding. Looking up, I hissed in a sharp but low voice, “What the hell are you doing here, Felix?”“Madeline…” he whispered back before he maneuvered and jumped off the tree and onto the ground right in front of me.Urgency was written all over his face as he took a step forward and held both my shoulders worriedly, speaking in a hushed voice, “I came to warn you. Mark knows you’re here.”As if burned, I took a step back and shrugged his hold off of me as I felt my pulse quickening. Damn, mate bond!I couldn’t wait

Madeline’s POVI stayed frozen in there for a long moment, staring at the darkness where Felix had disappeared, feeling relief that no one was around and Keiran hadn’t finished heightening the patrol yet.But most of all, what bothered me was Felix’s words that echoed in my head like a broken cassette player.“Mark knows you’re here.”“There’s a spy in Demonmaw.”“He’s feeding the council with lies.”My heart pounded as I forced myself to move, knowing I couldn’t afford to let fear and panic control me. What I needed now were answers.Spinning on my heel

Madeline’s POV“Agh! She really didn’t hold back!” I complained in pain as I let myself fall back on my mattress, feeling my entire body stiff and in pain from Helena’s strikes.Her strikes were too rough, so much so that my body wasn’t healing too fast, and there are still some bruising marks on the surface of my skin.I covered my eyes with my arms and let the silence surround me with peace, but that silence later brought me an unsettling feeling. My eyelids were already getting heavier from exhaustion, but I sat up in an instant upon hearing a faint rustling out of line, which wasn’t made by nature.“What the hell?” I cursed under my breath as I stood up cautiously and went toward the window, peeking through the small ajar curtain. At first, everything was too dark and I couldn't see anything, but then the clouds were moved by the wind and the moon cast a faint glow on the edge of the forest.And that’s when I saw something… faint footprints just beneath my window and onto the fore

Madeline’s POVI stared at Keiran in disbelief as I clenched my fist, feeling frustration bubbling inside of me.Clenching my jaws, I pursed my lips before I held my head high and firmly uttered with conviction, “I will.”His brows raised in surprise. A hint of amusement even glinted in his eyes. “Oh yeah? And how exactly?”“I want to join the next patrol near the border,” I uttered without hesitation.Even first year trainees were considered as warrior as soon as they finished 30 hours of training with same class and at least a day with senior and all of us already reached that level, but only the chosen ones from the freshman level were allowed to join the patrol, unlike seniors like Helena who were almost considered as full pledge warriors already.He sat up straight, studying me closely with a frown before shaking his head. “You’re not ready. Not yet. You don’t even have your wolf yet.”Aggregated, I strode toward his desk and intensely looked at him. “I can handle myself. And thi

Madeline’s POVI stood frozen in the middle of the forest with my pulse pounding against my temple as I stared into the abyss, all while the strange warrior’s words echoed in my head.“Damn it!” I muttered once I recovered from shock, clenching my fist before I kicked a pebble, almost making it fly a hundred miles away.Suddenly, a twig behind me snapped, alerting me. I whirled around with a hammering heart and was ready to strike, but found that it was just one of the patrol warriors in my team, Leo.He raised his hand and approached me with a wary look. “Woah, easy.”Surveying me with his eyes, he frowned. “Are you okay? You look like you just saw a ghost.”“How long have you been there?” I asked, silently wondering if he saw that guy with the same warrior pin as he was wearing.Leo raised an eyebrow, looking sceptical. “What do you mean?”Seeing as he was clueless, I decided to keep my mouth shut first until I knew more. Hence, I merely exhaled sharply and shook my head. “Never min

Madeline’s POVBefore Jonas and I got into a deeper conversation, Ted came in and started the training, dispersing everyone into their designated group to spar, leaving me once again in Helena’s kind hands.Unbothered by the pain in my body, I went straight to Keiran’s office right after the training. As usual, I didn’t bother knocking.I simply pushed the doors open and marched straight in front of his desk, where he was flipping through home reports. Sighing, he remarked dryly, “If you’re going to continue barging in, at least try to make it entertaining.”Letting his side remark aside, I sharply hissed at him, informing him, “There’s a spy in your pack.”That seemingly got his attention as he closed the folder down and put it down, but when he leaned back to look at me and clasped his hands together, I could see that he remained uninterested and merely patronising me.Raising a bow, he asked boringly, “Is that so?”I tried to stop myself from cursing out some sarcastic remark and h

The Runaway Twin: Claimed By The Alpha Chapter 53
Madeline’s POVRight after Amanda and Felix left, I went straight to my room and stayed there. I didn’t want to risk bumping into Keiran—not when I knew he’d ask questions I didn’t have the answers for.As much as I hated to admit it, I was running out of time. Things had already gone on longer than they should have, and with Amanda and Felix showing up—something told me that wouldn’t be their last visit—I could feel the pressure closing in. Sooner or later, my identity would come out. I just didn’t expect “sooner” to feel so close.It’s been two days since then. Honestly, I thought avoiding Keiran would be hard… but surprisingly, it wasn’t. I hadn’t seen him at all. Not even at the academy.Even Tom wasn’t around.“Is something going on?” I asked Helena as we sat in the canteen having lunch. The peaceful atmosphere felt off, like something was coming but hadn’t landed yet.Helena bit into her bread and shrugged like it was just another day. “In this pack? Something’s always going on.
The Runaway Twin: Claimed By The Alpha Chapter 52
Keiran’s POV“We got a problem.”“Great!” I sarcastically thought.Just what I needed after dealing with Princess Amanda and Alpha Felix.The pile of documents in front of me was already tall enough to make me want to throw myself out the nearest window, and my inbox hadn’t stopped dinging all morning. I hadn’t even had five minutes of peace after they left before Tom showed up at my office door with that sentence.Irritably putting down the document I had in my hand and looking away from my computer, I swivelled my chair to face Tom, who was standing at my doorway with a serious expression.“What now?” I asked impatiently.Tom looked like he didn’t want to be the one to say it. His gaze shifted for a second before he sighed and admitted, “Princess Amanda and Alpha Felix decided to stay. She said she only needed to use the bathroom, but before I knew it, they were already staying in the academy and watching training.”I slammed my hands on my desk, sharply gazing at him. “And you’re o
The Runaway Twin: Claimed By The Alpha Chapter 51
Madeline’s POV“I thought you already left, Princess?” I looked up from my seat on the ground when I heard Keiran’s voice as he approached the training ground.Amanda, who was having fun taunting me, was seated on the other side of the room, elegantly leaning back on her seat with a smirk on her face.She didn’t even bother to glance at Keiran and smirked, her eyes staring at me. “And miss all this fun?”Shifting her gaze to him, she continued, “You have a great academy. I’m just really curious about their talents.”Keiran followed Amanda’s glance at me and narrowed his eyes. I swallowed in anxiousness, knowing that sooner or later, I’d be back in his office and being interrogated.He opened his lips and uttered more words to her, but I didn’t hear their conversation anymore when someone blocked my view of them. “Why didn’t you hide?”I looked up at him and gritted my teeth. “Why are you guys here? Why didn’t you warn me?”Felix, looking half dead, shrugged his shoulders. “Will it cha

Madeline’s POVTuned to my wolf’s presence, my sense of smell also heightened, especially in needed times. Despite being in the middle of sparring, I immediately caught the scent of Amanda and Felix as soon as they entered the academy.When I felt them getting near us, I immediately halted and pretended to be tired.“What’s the matter?” Helena asked.Shaking my head, I stretched my fist. “Nothing, just tired. Let’s wrap this up.”“I’ll go and change first,” I muttered as I nodded toward the locker room behind her.She let out a laugh between her pants. “That’s a new one. It’s our 10th round already, but you always push yourself to the limit before. What change?”With my eyes, I looked at my peripheral vision and caught shadows of Keiran and the others closing in. “I don’t like the air.”Looking behind me, she rolled her eyes and nodded. “I get what you mean.”I only smiled at her comment and let her think that the reason I was leaving was the same as hers - the hate for royal members.

Keiran’s POVFelix was jolted by my question, and his shoulders tensed before he subconsciously looked away. Clearing his throat, he shook his head and replied, “No.”Forcing a smile, he added, “Just... fascinated with their training, that’s all.”I narrowed my eyes, unconvinced. There was something off about him—too guarded, too rehearsed. My instincts prickled, warning me that something beneath the surface wasn’t right. Testing the waters, I tilted my head toward the training field.“Then maybe,” I said slowly, watching his expression closely, “we could stay and watch one of the sparring matches.”I pointed subtly in the direction of the field. “Those two over there—Helena and Adeline—they’re some of the best warriors in the academy. I’m sure it’ll be worth your while.”Felix flinched—just for a split second, but I caught it. He masked it quickly, but it was there. And before he could reply, Princess Amanda chimed in, her voice sugary-sweet.“Really?” she asked, tightening her grip
The Runaway Twin: Claimed By The Alpha Chapter 48
Keiran’s POV“What’s the plan?” Tom asked as we got inside the office, setting down the invitation on my table.I look at it with disdain and shake my head before leaning back on my seat. Shrugging, I nonchalantly replied, “Greet them is all. It’s just a meeting. There’s no need for a party or anything.”“But–”He tried to protest, but I gestured a zip motion with my finger and lips. “But nothing. It’s just the royal family being spoiled brats again.”Tom looked at me hesitantly. “But won’t they think we are being disrespectful? I mean, as powerful as our pack is, it’s still the kingdom.”Sighing, I pushed the invitation his way. “Then we’ll greet them with warriors and shit at their arrival make them feel important. Anything beyond that…”I pursed my lips and waved my hand in dismissal.Tom smirked at me and shook his head in both admiration and disbelief. “I really don’t know where you’re getting your guts.”With that, he turned and left.And just as I said, it’s what we did. Early
The Runaway Twin: Claimed By The Alpha Chapter 47
Madeline’s POVMy heart stopped beating, and the bags I’m carrying slipped out of my hand, falling to the ground, while my eyes opened wide as I watched the scene before me unfold with unsettling feelings.“From the kingdom?” Keiran asked, and the messenger nodded his head as he handed the red envelope with a dry gold seal on top.Holding the letter, he looked in my direction and raised his brows. “Everything alright, Adeline?”“Adeline!” Helena smacked me in my shoulder, putting me out of the haze before she gestured at Keiran, who was still waiting for my reply.“Y-yes, of course.” I want to smack myself again for stuttering as I hurried to pick up the bags I dropped and walked together with Helena toward him.Acting clueless and nonchalant, I nodded at his hand. “What is that about?”“From the palace? Is something big happening?” Helena asked, just as curious as I was. The only difference was that her question was directed to Tom.Keiran and Tom looked at both of us weirdly before
The Runaway Twin: Claimed By The Alpha Chapter 46
Madeline’s POVWe stood in silence as the wind rustled around us as if sucking something from within our souls… And after a few minutes, I felt free… I felt light…When I rejected Felix, there was a heavy feeling that lingered within me, the small piece of our mate bond, which I thought I could live through and wouldn’t matter along the way. But when he spoke those words and accepted my rejection, it felt different.A subconscious smile spread from my lips as I heaved a sigh of relief. I didn’t know I was holding on.He let out a scoff that hid beneath his small smile. “Now, you’re smiling. I guess I did the right thing.”Hearing him say that made me realise that I was being a little insensitive. Indeed, he broke my heart, but he was also my childhood best friend and the one who helped me escape, and he was still helping me now.“I’m sorry,” I whispered, after all, he was here in an enemy pack and risking his life…My brows furrowed. Did he risk his life just to accept my rejection?C
The Runaway Twin: Claimed By The Alpha Chapter 45
Madeline’s POVBecause of what happened last night, the patrol and security around the pack house became even tighter.“Come on, we’ll be late!” I shouted from downstairs while waiting for Helena, who was rushing from the pack house. Without her, I might not be able to leave and meet with Felix.Fortunately, she had plans to go to the market today and buy some supplies for the training.“Why are you in a rush, girl?” she asked suspiciously as soon as we got settled in the car.Rolling down the car window, I let the fresh breeze of air blow my hair and the warmth of the sunlight touch my skin. With my eyes closed, enjoying the sensation, I replied, “I just want the fresh air. It felt like forever since I got out of the pack.That was the truth, though. Since I got inside the pack house, I never left the pack, and that’s what most of us thought as well – that I was a prisoner.At first, I went with Helena everywhere she wanted me to go. We checked boxing gloves, weapons, and even new tr
