All Chapters of The Alpha's Burning Heart: Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

Tristan's POVOne of the attackers lunged at Raina, and I intercepted him, my claws raking across his side. He snarled and tried to retaliate, but I was quicker, my teeth sinking into his shoulder. I could hear the snap of bone and the howl of pain as he fell to the ground.Raina took down the last of them, her jaws clamped around his throat. She shook him violently before releasing him, his body hitting the ground with a thud. She stood there, panting heavily, her eyes scanning the clearing for any remaining threats.I moved to her side, nuzzling her gently, checking for injuries. She had fought bravely, but I knew she couldn't take any more hits. We had to leave before more enemies arrived.I nudged her, urging her to follow me. She hesitated momentarily, her eyes filled with gratitude and fear, but she knew I was a better option than the unknown. Together, we moved swiftly through the forest, our bodies moving as one. We didn't stop until we reached a safe distance, the scent of bl

Tristan's POVI couldn't believe what I had just heard. Raina had just described the man who took her picture to Abel. I believe it was him. I suspected Irvin initially, but now I realise it might not be him. It also seemed as if the man was using Abel's service for a while. I couldn't believe this. I was beginning to suspect that my mother and brother were actually kidnapped, and they did not run away. If kidnapped, this man would have a good reason for trying to take them far away. Me, but I couldn't say why. I knew I couldn't trust Irvin, but Raina's father loved his daughter enough to want to take the fall for her. I am sure he would be on my side. If not for anything but for the sake of Raina. I began to regret not listening to my mother whenever she told me things weren't the way they seemed. Maybe I should have paid a little attention. It seemed anger really did take the best of me, but I just couldn't help it. She took everything from me and left me with nothing. She even took

Tristan's POVWhile I waited for Jared to return, I began to ponder who or what Glen was. Why did Dean leave a piece of his fabric asking for help? What was going on? I wanted to ignore it as a trap, but a gnawing feeling I had said otherwise, and I knew it would be foolish of me to just let it be. I didn't want to have any more regrets. I didn't spare my brother and mother, only to have someone kill them. My qualm with them did not require their lives. I knew I needed to act swiftly.Alec reappeared in the doorway, looking slightly more composed. I had asked him to go rest, but it seemed like he wanted to go into the action."Alpha, can I help?" he asked, his voice steady but his eyes betraying his concern. As much as he hated Dean for messing with his sister, I could tell he was concerned about his friend. "Yes, Alec. You're coming with us. We need all the help we can get," I said, and I could see him visibly relaxed. He was happy. It wasn't like I trusted him, but I needed all h

Tristan's POVJason was rushed to the hospital in a flurry of chaos, leaving Jared, Alec, and me to return to the office with heavy hearts and troubled minds. The severity of our situation was palpable, and I didn't need anyone to articulate the gravity of our predicament. "Alec, I think you should go and rest. We'll reconvene tomorrow," I suggested gently, observing the weariness etched on his face. Alec hesitated for a moment, a shadow of reluctance crossing his eyes, but he ultimately nodded in agreement. He didn't protest, understanding the unspoken need for him to step back temporarily. I had to send him away because I had an urgent and confidential meeting with Daniel Winters. There were critical matters that needed addressing, matters that couldn't wait. I needed to uncover the identity of the blonde man who frequently visited King Darius and understand King Darius's connection to the Enclave. Without this crucial information, we were fumbling in the dark, unable to strategise

Raina’s POVWhen I returned to the pack house, I immediately sensed that something was off. The atmosphere was thick with tension, and people were giving me odd looks, glancing at me with a mix of curiosity and suspicion. Their eyes followed me as I walked through the corridors, whispers trailing in my wake. I didn't need to guess the reason behind their behaviour. It was obvious—they were probably expecting me to be in trouble because of Dean's recent escape. The news must have spread like wildfire, and it was clear that things had drastically changed around here.As I made my way to my floor, my heart sank when I saw Natasha standing by my door. Her eyes were puffy and red from crying, her face a mask of distress. Honestly, I didn't have the patience for this right now. I had narrowly escaped death, and Tristan had just reassured me about so many things. The only thing I wanted was to lie down and rest, to find a moment of peace in the chaos that had become my life. But there she was
