Chapter Thirty One

Aiden's POVI paced the floor of my room, the plush carpet doing nothing to muffle the sound of my footsteps. The room, usually a sanctuary, felt like a cage tonight. Every time I circled back to the window, I stared out at the moonlit garden, hoping the cool night air would clear my mind. But the same questions kept swirling around in my head. How is Claire getting ahead of me? What is he doing that I can't see?My thoughts were interrupted by a soft knock on the door. "Come in," I called out, trying to sound composed.The door creaked open, and to my surprise, it was Lucas, my trusted confidante. Her face was etched with concern. "Aiden, I've been looking for you everywhere. What's going on? You look like you haven't slept in days."I forced a smile, though it felt more like a grimace. "Just a lot on my mind, Lucas. I'm trying to figure out how Claire is managing to outmaneuver me at every turn."She stepped inside, closing the door behind her, and sat on the edge of the bed. "Tell

Chapter Thirty Two

Aiden's POVI was taken aback by her sudden assertiveness. Claire had always been gentle and soft-spoken, never one to confront or challenge anyone, especially me. Yet here she was, standing in my room with a confidence I had never seen before. It was both bewildering and oddly intriguing."Aiden," she said, her tone now firm and unwavering, "you need to listen to me."I was surprised by her boldness. What confidence did this lady have? I wondered. I took a deep breath, trying to regain my composure. "Alright, Claire," I said, my voice calmer now. "I'm listening."She took a step closer, her gaze never leaving mine. "Do you know how long I've been waiting for this moment?" she asked, her voice a mix of determination and vulnerability.I shook my head, genuinely puzzled. "What do you mean?""For years," she began, her eyes glistening with unshed tears, "I've watched you, supported you, loved you. But now you have made it, and what do you do first? You go and get yourself a MATE! Disre

Chapter Thirty-Three

Aiden’s POVClaire then walked closer to me, her eyes gleaming with a mix of determination and something darker. She stood right in front of me, close enough that I could feel the heat of her breath. “Aiden,” she began, her voice low and almost conspiratorial, “there’s a whole lot you don’t know about this throne-taking. And having me by your side will go a long way to help you achieve this.”I stared at her, searching her eyes for some hint of deception. “What are you not telling me?” I asked.She chuckled softly, shaking her head. “Telling you? Nah, I’m keeping my mouth shut. But if you really want to win this, you’ll make sure you have all your brother’s plans at the back of your hand.”“Why should I trust you?” My voice was harsher than I intended, but the stakes were too high for gentle inquiries.“You don’t have a choice, dear,” Claire said, her tone dripping with a mix of sweetness and malice. “I own this right now. You either ally up with me or lose this throne.”I swallowed h

Chapter Thirty Four

Chloe’s POVI hurried back home, my mind spinning with possibilities. Confronting Aiden directly might push him further into Claire’s grasp. But staying silent could give them the time they needed to put their plan into action.As I walked through the front door, I knew I had to do something. Claire had warned me to stay out of her business, but this was my business now. My marriage, my life, was on the line.The next morning, I decided to confront Claire directly. I needed to know what she was planning, and I wasn’t going to let fear stop me.I found her at her office, a sleek building downtown where she ran her PR firm. Taking a deep breath, I walked in, my heart pounding. The receptionist looked up, surprised to see me.“Can I help you?” she asked.“I need to see Claire,” I said, trying to keep my voice steady.The receptionist nodded and picked up the phone. After a brief conversation, she gestured for me to follow her. I was led to Claire’s office, a spacious room with floor-to-c

Chapter Thirty Five

Aiden’s POVMy footsteps echoed softly as I walked down the dimly lit hallway, Lucas trailing just a few steps behind me. The weight of the impending meeting settled heavily on my shoulders. Three elders awaited me, their support crucial for my succession to the throne. For now, they were the only ones backing my claim. I needed to sway more to my side if I wanted to secure my future as the leader of the pack.I repeated my strategy in my mind, determined to win over the council. Taking a deep breath, I squared my shoulders and pushed open the heavy wooden door. The room inside was modestly furnished, the flickering light of a fireplace casting shadows on the walls. The three elders sat in high-backed chairs, their faces etched with lines of concern and contemplation.I moved towards them, nodding briefly in acknowledgment. I took the chair next to Elder Marcus, a stern-faced man with piercing blue eyes. The other two, Elder Naomi and Elder Richard, looked equally serious."So, what c

Chapter Thirty Six

Chloe’s POVI glanced around, making sure we were alone. I took a deep breath before speaking. “Yesterday, I was passing through one of the rooms when I started hearing voices. At first, I thought it was just my imagination, but as I leaned closer to the door, I realized it was Aiden and a few elders having a deep conversation.”My heart skipped a beat. Aiden was always secretive, and the elders rarely met without a reason. “What did you hear?” I asked, leaning forward.“I couldn’t hear much,” I admitted, my brow furrowed. “But I did catch some snippets. Aiden was saying something about using Claire to get what he wants.”A chill ran down my spine. Claire was my best friend, and the thought of Aiden using her for his schemes was unsettling. “What does Aiden want?” I asked, my voice barely above a whisper.I shook my head. “I don’t really know right now,” I said, frustration evident in my tone. “But I have a strong feeling it has something to do with the throne. I think Aiden really wa

Chapter Thirty Seven

Aiden’s POVI was sitting on a chair in Claire's office, fidgeting with the edge of my sleeve, trying to figure out why she called me in. The place was immaculate, as always—her desk neatly organized, the books on the shelf arranged by color, and a faint scent of vanilla lingering in the air. My mind raced through a dozen possibilities as to why I was here, but none of them made sense. Claire had never summoned me like this before."Why did you call me here?" I finally asked, unable to bear the suspense any longer.Claire, leaning against her desk with a casual elegance, gave me a knowing smile. "Chill out, Aiden. I have some news for you."I was curious, my impatience simmering just beneath the surface. "What is it?" I pressed, trying to keep my tone neutral.She walked over to me, her heels clicking softly on the polished wooden floor. She reached out and touched my chin, tilting my face up slightly. I shifted back, the gesture catching me off guard. "Speak, Claire...""Hmm, why are

Chapter Thirty Eight

Chloe’s POVI stepped out of the car, feeling the cool night air on my skin. The building loomed before me, its dark windows giving away nothing. Lucas had called me earlier, insisting I meet him here. He said he had something really important to tell me. Lucas always had valid news, so I had to maneuver my guards and leave the palace discreetly, driving here alone to avoid being seen.I approached the building with a sense of urgency. The streets were quiet, and the only sound was the occasional distant car passing by. As I reached the door, I hesitated for a moment before knocking. To my surprise, the door opened automatically."That's strange," I muttered to myself as I stepped inside.The hallway was dimly lit, and the air smelled faintly of dust and old wood. "Lucas! Lucas!" I called out, my voice echoing off the walls. There was no response.I checked my watch. It was 9:05 PM. We had agreed to meet at 9 PM sharp.Where could he be? Why is he late again? I need to be back at the

Chapter Thirty Nine

Aiden’s POVSitting on my balcony, I scrolled through my phone, checking out the latest trends and news. It felt like ages since I last caught up on what was happening around the pack. I'd been so preoccupied with the throne issues and all the chaos surrounding it. It had been over a week since Claire and I paid Isabella to handle things, and I was really hoping she'd deliver on her promise. "I pray she delivers," I muttered to myself as I kept scrolling."Hey, brother! What are you doing out here? It's early evening," a familiar voice called out, breaking my concentration. I turned around, surprised to see Hudson walking towards me. Hudson never left his chambers. Ever."Wait, Hudson?" I asked, disbelief clear in my voice. "Why are you here? You never leave your chambers."Hudson smiled, a rare sight. "What brings you to my chambers, big brother?" I asked, still stunned."Is it a crime to come and see my younger brother again?" he replied, chuckling. "It's been a while since I steppe

Chapter Fourty

Aiden’s POVIsabella didn’t need to be told twice. She bolted for the door, and I followed, glancing back to see Hudson struggling to regain his balance.We made it to the hallway, sprinting towards the elevators. I could hear Hudson shouting behind us, but I didn’t look back. We reached the elevators and I frantically pressed the button, praying the doors would open quickly.They finally did, and we rushed inside, hitting the button for the lobby. The doors closed just as Hudson reached the hallway, his face twisted in rage.As the elevator descended, I felt a rush of relief. We had made it. We were safe.Isabella was shaking, tears streaming down her face. I pulled her into a hug, trying to comfort her."It’s okay," I said, my voice trembling with emotion. "We’re safe now."When the elevator doors opened, Claire was waiting in the lobby, a look of relief on her face."Thank God," she said, rushing over to us. "Are you both okay?""We’re fine," I said, still holding onto Isabella. "T
