All Chapters of Alpha Azriel: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

The look of sadness and hurt in Aysel’s eyes gnaw at my heart. I watch her leave the infirmary while I can do nothing but follow the nurse who wants me to take Sarah back. Liam is on duty or else I would have asked him to do this instead of accompanying her myself.“What happened to that man?” I ask the nurse before going to meet Sarah.“Ah, I think he got poisoned by nightshade or so beta Aysel informed.” I nod jerkily before thanking her and going to meet Sarah.She bowed her head in greeting.“How are you feeling?” I ask, flickering my gaze at her bandaged ankle.“Better. Thank you,” she murmurs, giving me a small smile.“The nurse said you are fit to go back. Think you can manage that?” I ask. She darts her gaze away, almost looking uncomfortable.“Fine, I will call Liam then and ask him to escort you back,” I murmur as I fish out my phone and hurriedly shoot a text to her brother.“But, he—”“He will be here in half an hour,” I inform her as Liam sends me a reply immediately.Sar

“Thank you for this,” Aysel says once again as we drive back to the palace. “There’s no need to thank me. I am just relieved that he is alive,” I murmur. After a beat of silence, she asks, “Who did this to him? Did he say anything about it?”I shake my head. “He knows what poisons were used, but can’t remember who chased him down.” “Was it, someone from—”“From alpha king’s men? Probably, very likely,” I reply. “But if so, then why can’t we prove it?” Aysel asks, voice impatient. “We are working on that,” I reply slowly. “Why do you think I ask you to sort the accounts of every member working for me and the alpha king in the palace? Most of them were hired after…” I trail off, my throat tightening as I mutter the next words, “After my mother went missing, the whole staff was practically changed.”I hear her inhale sharply. “Why?”I let out a bitter laugh. “don’t know, but definitely so that my biological father could rule the werewolves without being questioned. He was a ruthles

I stand on the balcony, looking out at the lush darkness that stretches forward. Mom did not elaborate and later send a text message only mentioning the time, and place to meet. The hour was odd, after midnight, almost after everyone goes to bed. I don’t know what anyone who notices me slipping out will think. I go inside the room and take a few essential things with me in a small bag. Just for safety.As I slip out in the night, weaving my way through the shadows so that no one would notice me immediately, I can't seem to shake off the weight of my concerns. Azriel is seemingly on the path to marriage, and I can't help but wonder why he never shared this news with me. The thought of him marrying someone else, while keeping me in the dark, gnaws at my heart.Azriel has always been an enigma, a force of nature that demands attention and admiration. His commanding presence, chiseled features, and piercing eyes have a way of captivating anyone who crosses his path. I thought, well, doub

My gaze darts toward the date at the top right of the screen. It’s been two days since I have seen Aysel. Two days since my world had managed to turn upside down again, despite me not wanting. But when has fate been kind to me, when has it been ever good enough for me to enjoy my pathetic life? Just when I think that my life has shaped the way I want, life throws in a curveball that I can never seem to be prepared for. I sigh, typing away the reply to another email, another request from a puny Pack about them wanting to strike a deal with, of their desire to see me soon taking the throne.“Alpha? You look tired. Let me take care of the emails,” I hear Sarah’s soft voice coming from beside me. When I look up, she standing beside me, a tad bit closer than I would like. I shake my head. “No. I can do it. You can leave. Work hours are done,” I murmur. “But—”“Leave,” I order, not up for sweet talks. The omega in her soon obeys but I glance to see her linger, her human side, rearing to

The ache in my heart never seemed to subside, just like the relentless pounding in my head. Kai was gone, and I couldn't come to terms with how it happened. It was like he disappeared into thin air, leaving behind a trail of unanswered questions. But my mother, who had never cared for us much, refused to provide any explanations. Her indifference only fueled my desire to find the truth.“I cannot tell you anymore because that’s what I know and then I had to deal with you,” she had grumbled before leaving the room, not even glancing back when I fell on the floor. But I knew that there has to be more about this because I somehow didn’t believe that he died. Even my wolf doesn’t believe this or we might just be in denial. I can only seem to recollect a few parts, of my life with Kai, and then as if someone had erased every memory I had with him. Each time I tried to recollect the moments leading up to Kai's disappearance, my headaches intensified. It was as if my mind was shielding me
