Chapter 11: Aftermath.

Serena’s POV My heart beat erratically as Darius led me away, his soft but firm grip the only thing keeping me on my feet. My mind whirled with thoughts as I followed behind him, my mind still reeling from shock. “How…” I stuttered, my words clogging my throat. “How can you be walking?” My eyes narrowed as I tried to make sense of everything, Was it Darius I'd seen, lying motionless? Was I mistaken? I wondered, but even as the thought crossed my mind I shook my head. I couldn't have been mistaken. He was the one. He looked nothing like what I thought I'd seen, where he'd looked sick and weak, he looked Strong. What was going on? I wondered, my stomach tightened into knots as the layer of secrecy surrounding him felt thicker. A car was waiting, and a man I recognized as Jake, Darius's Beta and best friend was at the wheel. “You're safe,” he smiled frostily at me as we got in. “Thank…” I began but Jake jumped out of the car, disappearing into the dark. “I'll be taking you ho

Chapter 12: Before The Act

Darius (A few Weeks Ago) My eyes were narrowed as I stared at the metal that'd been wedged beneath the car. I could feel my palms become sweaty and I felt like a noose had been tightened around my neck. Who could have done this? My eyes were narrowed as thoughts filled my mind. “How did you spot this?” I glanced at Jake, his face was slick with sweat as he stared at the explosive rigged to my car. I could imagine that when the engine had become hot enough, it'd trip off and… A chill ran down my spine, whoever had done this wanted me dead. “I…” Jake looked awkward, he shook his head. “I can't say, this wasn't a rushed job.” The weight of betrayal settled heavily in my gut and I silently ran through the names and faces of people who could want me dead. It was quite a long list, as Alpha to the Crimson Pack, a lot of smiling faces hid daggers. As the shock faded, anger surged. This wasn’t just about my life; this was a strike against my family, a message that we were vulnerable.

Chapter 13: The Gap That Can't Be Bridged

Serena’s POV The room was silent except for the tick of the ancient antique clock that was hung in the corner. Sleep felt like an impossible luxury and my mind just wouldn't stop swirling with thoughts. Jake had brought me back to the mansion, no one had asked any questions. A maid showed me my room and left after making sure I was settled in. But even then, the weight of Darius's revelations kept me awake. He wasn’t incapacitated as he'd led everyone to believe and I had a feeling that there was a bigger game at play. He just didn't tell me anything. My thoughts swirled in my head, memories and questions flooding into my head without an answer. I couldn’t imagine how fast things had changed, I'd been engaged to Derek only days ago, and now? I was engaged to Darius, a man I barely knew. I exhaled as I ran a hand through my hair, trying to calm myself down. There was something about Darius I thought, in my wildest imaginations I never could've thought he'd be the one to save

Chapter 14: Secretive Nature

Serena “I…” my tongue felt tied as I stared at him, I felt like all the air had been knocked clean out of me and I silently scolded myself for saying so much. I'd just complained to Luna's son about his mother, pouring my heart out and I didn't know. My cheeks reddened with embarrassment, he'd probably just sat there enjoying the show. “I don't know what to say,” I managed, my voice shaking. “I…” I raised my hands. “I didn't mean to disrespect the Luna like that, you see…” I trailed off, my head blank of words. “It's fine,” Alex smiled, showing off his white teeth. He didn't look the least bit offended. “I've heard worse,” he winked. “My mother isn't the easiest person to speak to,” his eyes softened as he gazed intently at me. “Who are you?” His eyes flickered with barely concealed interest as his eyes swept over me. “I…” I blushed, my breath hastening. Before I could gather my thoughts footsteps echoed from behind us. Jake appeared, his face set in a stern expression, his g

Chapter 15: Baby Steps Forward

Darius’s POV My fists clenched by my side as I watched her run away, bits and pieces of my emotion beginning to unravel. Waves of guilt ripped into me as I recalled her terrified expression. I did that. I wished I could follow behind her and tell her I hadn't meant to, but she wasn't going to listen to me. Why would she? I wondered, running a hand through my hair. I hadn't meant to scare her, but I'd kept this room off limits to everyone, seeing her in here… I sighed and my shoulders sagged. I’d spent so long burying my feelings that I was still finding it hard to accept the ones she'd stirred up in me. She was my mate? I wondered. I still couldn't find an explanation for the pull I'd felt ever since she'd stumbled into me at the party. It was the same pull that'd led me to mention it to Jake and the bastard had immediately pulled some strings, mother surprisingly hadn't been against the idea. I dialed Jake’s number as I headed towards the kitchen. “Hello,” he picked on the

Chapter 16: Revealed Truths

Serena’s POV The mansion was silent as I headed down the stairs, the sheer silk I was wearing shimmered over my skin. I'd been pleasantly surprised that the clothes Darius had gotten were my exact size, “How did he do that?” I wondered, still surprised. I'd woken up only an hour ago, exhaustion from the previous day taking its toll. I had no idea where Darius was at the moment, I knew better than to go check on him in his room. Especially after Yesterday. My eyes narrowed at the thought of how Darius had reacted to me being in that room, I couldn't help but wonder who that lady was. Was she his previous lover? What could have happened to make him react so strongly? The kitchen was quiet as I padded in quietly, I paused as surprise flashed through my eyes. Where were the dishes? I wondered, I'd intended on doing them this morning before Darius came down, but I didn't plan on taking a chance on his reaction. I was rummaging through the fridge to get something to eat when a voi

Chapter 17: A Darker Game

Derek’s POV My heart thudded erratically as I paced the dimly lit room, my gaze flicking over the mess of papers scattered across my desk. Every shred of information, every clue I’d uncovered led me closer to Serena’s father. My eyes reddened as rage whipped into me. He thought he could hide, thought he was safe behind hospital walls, and hired guards. The corner of my mouth curled into a smirk. Not safe enough. I just had to find which one specifically. After days of digging, following leads, and bribing every lowlife connected to the Kensington family, I finally had what I needed. I’d found him. Serena had to know she couldn’t just walk away from me. And if she needed a reminder, her father would be perfect. Maybe then she’d realize just how powerful I was—and how wrong she’d been to choose Darius. A dark satisfaction settled in my chest as I went over my plan. Within minutes, my men were on their way to the hospital, each one moving under the radar, blending in like shadows.

Chapter 18: Forced Encounter

Serena’s POV “Mother?” My eyes widened as I opened the door, “What… what happened?” I gasped, taking in her haggard appearance. She looked… awful, her eyes were red and swollen with dark circles. She looked nothing like her confident, polished self. I couldn't quite believe my eyes as I stared at her. “Serena…” she began, her voice thin and almost unrecognizable. “There's been a terrible incident, her eyes quivered. “Is Darius in?” She asked, stepping inside. “What happened to you? What's going on?” My breath caught in my throat as I ushered her inside. I rushed to bring a glass of water for her, I could feel a thread of dread tighten in my belly. I just hoped it wasn't about father. My mind raced with possibilities, each one worse than the last. I shook my head, trying to press down the surge of panic that threatened to rise within me. “It’s Stephanie,” Susan's voice was hoarse as she spoke, her eyes glimmered with tears. “She's been kidnapped.” “What!” the news hit me li

Chapter 19: Confrontation

Serena’s POV The air was tense as I sat across from Agatha, my food lay untouched. I could barely raise my head, not daring to stare at her squarely. She'd listened to me quietly as I explained the situation to her, not saying a word. I couldn’t even begin to guess what was on her mind. “So,” Agatha began, her lips pulling into a mocking smile. “You’ve decided to ignore my very clear instructions, haven’t you, Serena?” I winced a little at her sharp biting tone, “I…” I stammered. “I didn't have a choice,” I whispered, my voice shook slightly. “I… I’m sorry for barging in without a proper arrangement, Luna.” I felt like gagging when I called her Luna, but I pushed through. “I wouldn’t have come if it weren’t… important,” I stared at her, hoping she'd reconsider. “Important?” Agatha’s lips thinned, her expression becoming forbidding. “The only thing you should be concerned with is keeping your end of the bargain,” her expression became more severe. “You seem to have forgotten.

Chapter 20: Shadows Of The Past.

Darius’s POV The silence of the garden was comforting, and it held a steady pulse of stillness that I’d come to seek out in recent days. I sighed as I stared into the distance, I had been avoiding her—Serena. I had just gotten off the phone with Jake, his words echoing in my ears. “Serena’s step-sister has been kidnapped,” Jake had spoken tersely, his voice tight with tension. “Her mother came to give her the news, I assume she will Come to you for help,” Jake's voice lowered. “What will you do about it?” Jake paused before adding, “Derek's sent a letter with his demands, we can't reveal our hand easily Darius,” his voice was grim. “Remember that.” “I need to think” I'd said, ending the call and even now I still didn't know what I was supposed to do. “Damn you Derek!” I hissed under my breath, my eyes narrowing. I exhaled slowly, trying to calm down. I needed to remain calm and rational about this. Derek's plan was well carried out I thought, clenching my fists. He'd let his
