A Dance With DaggersHayley's POV The reception area was a sea of elegant tables, draped in pristine white linens and adorned with centerpieces that seemed to glow in the soft evening light. As we made our way to our assigned seats, I couldn't shake the feeling of being a stranger in a strange land. Every face I saw was unfamiliar, save for our small group, and the air was thick with an undercurrent of tension that seemed at odds with the celebratory occasion.I settled into my chair, carefully adjusting Aurora in my arms. The weight of her, warm and solid against my chest, was a comfort in this sea of uncertainty.The soft clink of glasses and the low hum of conversation filled the air. My eyes couldn't help but drift towards a particular group - Luna Barbara, Melissa, and their coterie of dark-eyed women. They huddled together, their heads bent low in hushed conversation, occasionally casting furtive glances around the room. A shiver ran down my spine, and I felt uncomfortable.

A Blade in the DarkRoman's POV Since I woke up in the morning today, I woke up with a fierce determination. An urgent knock at the door jolted the rest of the men awake. My instincts instantly on high alert, when I disentangled myself from bed and made my way to the door.One of our assigned guards stood there, his face etched with concern. "My King," he said in a hushed tone, "I have some troubling information." He informed me.I stepped out into the hallway, closing the door softly behind me. "What is it?" I asked, keeping my voice low.The guard glanced nervously up and down the corridor before leaning in closer. "I've heard disturbing news in Luna Barbara's chambers. She's planning something... something evil against the bride." He narrated.My blood ran cold at his words. "What did you hear them say?" I pressed, searching his face for any sign of doubt.He shifted grimly. "I couldn't make out their words because they spoke lowly, but I heard them saying they plan something evi

Echoes Of UneaseHayley's POV When we left to our various rooms in the safe house, I tossed and turned, and sleep became impossible for me tonight. Every time I closed my eyes, images from the wedding flashed through my mind, the glint of the knife, the shock on the bride's face, the chaos that erupted. I tossed and turned, the unfamiliar bed in Roman's safe house feeling like a raft adrift in a stormy sea. As the first light of dawn displayed through the curtains, I gave up on sleep altogether. Sitting up, I cradled Aurora close to my chest, her tiny breaths a soothing rhythm against the turmoil in my mind. Orion slept peacefully in the crib beside the bed, blissfully unaware of the danger that seemed to lurk around every corner.Just then, a thought struck me like a bolt of lightning, sending a chill down my spine. What if we'd made a terrible mistake? What if, while we were here chasing shadows, Victor had seized the opportunity to go after my parents back in New York? The

chapter 184

Unmasking the Covenant Roman's POV The weight of responsibility pressed down on my shoulders as we drove away from the safe house to Barbara's hideout. I couldn't shake the image of Hayley's worried face from my mind. Her plea for me to be careful echoed in my ears, mixing with the low rumble of the SUV's engine. "You okay, man?" Caspian's voice cut through my thoughts. I grunted, keeping my eyes on the road. "I'm fine. Just thinking about what we might find." I announced. Caspian nodded, his usual joviality replaced by a grim determination. "Whatever it is, we'll handle it. We always do." He comforted me. I nodded, not trusting my voice. Our convoy moved silently through the streets. My mind raced with possibilities, strategies, and worst-case scenarios. I'd been in tough situations before, but this felt different. This time, I had more to lose. "Update from our spy," one of my men said, breaking the tense silence. "The targets are all gathered. Security is tight, b

Caged Conspirators Roman's POV I watched Caspian walk away, his phone already in hand. The weight of what we'd just done settled heavily on my shoulders. Ten women, all of them Lunas, now sat in cells beneath my feet. It was a mess, but a necessary one. Taking a deep breath, I steeled myself for what came next. The dungeon air was cool against my skin as I descended the stairs, the scent of fear and anger growing stronger with each step. My eyes immediately found Melissa, her glare as sharp as ever despite her new accommodations. I approached her cell, keeping my voice low and controlled. "Now then, Melissa. Why don't we have a little chat about exactly what you and your friends have been up to?" I asked her. She spat at my feet, her eyes blazing with defiance. "We don't answer to you, Roman. You may be king, but you're not our alpha." She snarled. I felt my patience wearing thin, but I forced myself to remain calm. "You're right, I'm not your alpha. I'm your king. And

chapter 186

Savoring Family's Company Roman's POV I slowly opened my eyes, blinking against the light, and realizing it was already morning. For the first time in what felt like ages, I had slept deeply, and I felt completely boosted for the tasks awaiting us. Rose was still curled up against me, her breathing steady and peaceful. I couldn't help but smile, drinking in the sight of her. Last night, after tucking her in bed and settling beside her, I snuggled close. The babies each laid in their cribs. This was the best sleep since we came to this wedding, even though it was absurd to call it a wedding because we were not at any wedding venue now. I enjoyed sleeping in my mate's arms and we slept peacefully together. The babies barely cried at night, much to our liking. Gently, I brushed a strand of hair from her face, causing her to stir. Her eyes fluttered open, and a sleepy smile spread across her lips. "Good morning," I said softly, my voice still rough with sleep. "How did you

The Council of Alphas Roman's POV After lunch, we were well rested and prepared for the task ahead, which was attending the meeting. The weight of responsibility settled heavily on my shoulders as we prepared to leave. I caught Rose's eye, trying to convey all my love and determination in a single glance. She nodded, understanding without words the importance of what lay ahead. "Be careful," she whispered, her hand resting on my arm. I covered her hand with mine, squeezing gently. "Always. And I'll be back before you know it." I reassured her. Caspian cleared his throat, breaking the moment. "We should get going. We don't want to keep the others waiting." He reminded me. With a final wave to our women, we piled into the car. The drive to the meeting hall was tense, each of us lost in our own thoughts. Lucien sat beside me, his face a mask of conflicting emotions. "You okay?" I asked quietly, looking directly at him. He nodded stiffly. "As okay as I can be, considerin

The Alphas' VerdictRoman's POVAs we walked out of the meeting room for the short break, I couldn't help but rub my temples, trying to think about the best judgment for the confined Lunas. Caspian fell into step beside me, sensing my inner turmoil. "What are you thinking?" he asked quietly.I sighed, running a hand through my hair. "I'm not sure, to be honest. Holding them confined for a while is the safest option, but I know the other alphas won't be pleased about it." I confessed.Caspian nodded, his brow furrowed in thought. "Perhaps we should make it an open discussion when we reconvene. Let them voice their concerns, make it clear that we're not against them, we're all in this together." he suggested.I considered his words, nodding slowly. "That's not a bad idea. We need to approach this carefully, make them feel heard, but also make them aware not to be selfish." I said.Caspian clapped me on the back. "Exactly. Just remember, you're the King. Your word is final, but it'll go

Departure and DecisionsRoman's POVI woke up with a dreadful feeling in my chest, as the insistent chaos of recently washed down on me. As I lay there, staring at the ceiling, I realized I couldn't stand being in this country anymore. The urge to leave, to go back to New York, was overwhelming.So I'll just call the pilot driver and have him bring the jet here. Nonetheless, I'll have to check on the prisoners before we take off.Beside me, Rose stirred, before her eyes fluttered open. She looked at me, concern etched on her face. "You're awake already. Everything alright, Ro?" she asked, her voice still husky with sleep.I sighed, running a hand through my hair. "Yes, I was just thinking, I feel we need to leave. Go back to New York. Today." I informed her, plainly.Rose stifled a yawn, and frowned slightly. "Are you sure? What about everything here?" She asked, curiously."I know it's sudden, but I can't continue keeping you here with the babies," I explained, my voice low and urgen

Returning To New York With Beautiful HopeHayley's POVAs the jet's engines came to life, preparing for takeoff, I reclined back into my plush leather seat, feeling a momentary wave of relief wash over me.The familiar hum of takeoff vibrated through my body, and I closed my eyes, desperately wishing we could leave all our troubles behind on the ground. But even as we climbed higher into the sky, the haunting image of Leighton's bride being stabbed flickered behind my eyelids. I shuddered, opening my eyes quickly to dispel the memory which has become my nightmare lately. I hope that somehow, the change of scenery will erase all those haunting memories.Viola settled into the seat next to me, her presence a comforting warmth. On my other side, Bree sat quietly, her usual bubbly energy subdued. I glanced at her, noticing the distant look in her eyes. The attempted murder we'd witnessed had clearly shaken her to her core, extinguishing her enthusiasm for weddings and celebrations.A
