chapter 31

Chapter 31Ophelia sat across from Mack at the long, polished dining table, her delicate fingers stirring her tea absentmindedly. The breakfast had been laid out before them, but neither of them had touched much of it. Mack’s mind seemed elsewhere, his focus distant, as Ophelia picked at the food on her plate.“I can’t wait for the ball,” Ophelia said with a smirk, breaking the silence between them. “Federico’s pack hosting? How delightful.” She leaned back in her chair, her gaze sharp and full of amusement. “I just know that he’ll treat Azalea poorly. And when he does, I can’t wait to see the look on her face. That will be a sight.”Mack shifted uncomfortably in his seat, his hands resting on his lap. The tone in her voice made his stomach churn, and guilt began to creep its way into his chest. He hadn’t said much throughout the breakfast, but now, the knot in his throat grew tighter. He couldn’t pretend that her words didn’t affect him, and the bitterness in her voice felt too sharp

chapter 32

Chapter 32Azalea stood in front of the mirror as Vick carefully helped her into her dress, adjusting the straps and smoothing the fabric against her skin. The gown was a deep shade of emerald, complimenting her dark hair and eyes, and Vick gave her a satisfied nod once everything was in place. “You look perfect, my lady,” she said, stepping back to admire her handiwork.Azalea glanced at her reflection, her face calm, though her thoughts were elsewhere. Tonight’s dinner wasn’t something she was looking forward to, but it was part of the charade she had agreed to with Federico. Their contract may have dictated their actions in public, but she was under no illusion about what it meant behind closed doors.Federico was across the room, adjusting the cufflinks on his royal robe. The quiet sound of his movements was interrupted by the sharp ring of his phone. Azalea glanced toward him just as the phone lit up on the nightstand. The caller ID flashed: Maya.Her expression didn’t change, an

chapter 33

Chapter 33Leandro and Thomas made their way through the palace gardens, the cool evening air brushing against their skin as they walked toward Federico’s section of the palace. Their conversation was light, but there was an underlying tension as they both recalled the strange events of the past few days. It wasn’t like Federico and Azalea to keep to themselves this much, especially given their usual distant relationship. Yet, the odd shift in their behaviour hadn’t gone unnoticed.As they approached the parking lot outside Federico’s residence, Leandro’s sharp eyes narrowed. “One of his cars is missing,” he said, pointing toward the empty spot.Thomas looked over, frowning. “Seems like they’re out,” he muttered, his gaze scanning the quiet grounds.They continued forward until they spotted Jake, one of Federico’s trusted guards, standing just outside the house. He gave them a polite nod as they approached.“Evening, Jake,” Leandro greeted casually, though his curiosity was evident in

chapter 34

Chapter 34Vick walked briskly through the corridors of the palace toward the grand hall. Her footsteps were soft against the marble floors, but her mind was focused. As she approached the entrance, she wasn’t surprised to see Maya’s car parked outside. Maya had a knack for showing up exactly when expected—and sometimes when she wasn’t.Just as she took a step closer to the hall, her phone buzzed in her pocket. She pulled it out, noticing the caller Maya. Vick took a deep breath before answering.“Hello, Miss Maya,” Vick said, her tone neutral.“Where’s your mistress?” Maya’s voice was sharp as if she couldn’t quite hide her curiosity. “Is Azalea with you?”“No, my lady is back at the palace,” Vick replied calmly, her eyes scanning the hall entrance. “Is there a message you’d like me to deliver to her?”For a moment, there was a pause on the other end of the line. Then Maya’s voice came through again, but this time it was softer, almost dismissive. “No need. I’ll handle it myself.”B

chapter 35

Chapter 35Maya stormed into her home, her heels clicking angrily against the marble floor. She didn’t pause to greet the staff or acknowledge her family’s presence in the living room. Instead, she made a beeline for her bedroom, slamming the door shut behind her with such force that the walls seemed to shake. She paced back and forth, seething, her hands clenching into fists. “Azalea,” she hissed under her breath, the mere thought of the woman making her blood boil. The way she had dared to show up at the meeting—Maya’s territory, where she was supposed to be the one standing at Federico’s side. Yet Azalea had waltzed in, full of grace and confidence, making it clear she wasn’t backing down. There was a soft knock on her door. “Maya?” came the voice of her younger sister, Marie, from the hallway. “What’s wrong?”Maya spun around, her eyes flashing with irritation. “Go away, Marie!”Marie opened the door cautiously, peeking inside. “You’ve been acting strange since the meeting with

chapter 36

Chapter 36Ophelia stood in front of the grand mirror in her chamber, adjusting her gown with a smug smile. Her plan was falling into place, and she couldn’t wait to execute it. She turned to face Mack, who was sitting on the edge of the bed, deep in thought, his expression distant.“We leave for the Red Moon pack in two days,” she announced, running her fingers over the delicate fabric of her gown. “I’ll need to visit the hospital there.”Mack raised his eyebrows, mildly curious. “The hospital? Why?”Ophelia gave him a side glance, her smile growing wider. “You know it’s one of the best in all the clans combined. I need to check in on a few things. Besides, it’s good to show that we’re staying informed about the state of things outside of our pack.”Mack shifted, his thoughts still tangled in doubt. He had followed Ophelia into this relationship, thinking it was driven by his desires, but lately, he wasn’t so sure. Her pull on him was undeniable—she was beautiful, seductive, and smar

chapter 37

Chapter 37Gabe and Jake entered Federico's office, their expressions carefully neutral. Federico, seated behind his large oak desk, raised an eyebrow as they approached, already sensing what was coming.“Your brothers, Leandro and Thomas, were here to see you,” Gabe said, folding his arms across his chest.Federico let out a dry laugh, leaning back in his chair. “You don’t have to behave as if you don’t know that I don’t get along with them. You can skip the formalities.”Jake exchanged a glance with Gabe before shrugging. “We know, but it’s still good to keep you informed.”Federico shook his head, tapping his fingers on the desk, his mind already wandering. His brothers had always been trouble, always scheming behind his back. But today, they weren’t his main concern. “Alright, enough about them,” he said, rubbing his temples. “Let’s talk about the ball.”Both Gabe and Jake straightened, understanding the seriousness in his tone.“I need you two to be vigilant during the ball,” Fe

chapter 38

Chapter 38Azalea woke up with the soft rays of the morning sun streaming through the large windows of her bedroom, casting a warm glow on her face. A smile crept across her lips as she stretched lazily in bed, feeling a sense of satisfaction wash over her. Today would be the day her sister Ophelia and Mack arrived, and she couldn’t wait to see the shock and disappointment on their faces. They had imagined her suffering, broken by her circumstances, but instead, they would find her thriving. Her confidence and newfound strength made her eager for the confrontation.Her thoughts were interrupted by a soft knock on the door. Vick stepped in quietly, her hands clasped in front of her."Good morning, Luna," Vick said with a small bow. "Queen Selena is here to see you."Azalea sat up abruptly, her eyes widening in surprise. “Queen Selena? What is she doing here?”"I don't know, but she asked to speak with you immediately," Vick replied, moving over to help Azalea into her jacket. Azalea n

chapter 39

Chapter 39Federico sat behind his desk, deep in thought as he reviewed the security protocols for the upcoming ball. He knew it wasn’t going to be an ordinary event. With the political tension between the packs and the presence of rogues lurking in the shadows, nothing needed to go wrong. His thoughts were interrupted when Gabe and Jake walked in.“Everything is set for the ball, Alpha,” Gabe said, standing tall before the desk. “But we wanted to check in to see if there were any last-minute orders.”Federico looked up at them, his brow furrowed. “Make sure to check the halls thoroughly. I don’t want any mistakes. Rogues or worse, Lycans, could try to sneak in, and I won’t tolerate any threats. I want every inch of this place covered.”Jake nodded. “We’ll sweep the halls and make sure everything’s in order.”As they turned to leave, the door creaked open, and Maya made her way into the office, a soft smile on her face. Federico’s mood lightened instantly at the sight of her, and he r

chapter 40

Chapter 40Azalea and Maya walked back to the grand hall, the tension between them hanging in the air like a storm cloud. Maya hadn’t said much after their time in the garden, and Azalea could tell something was bothering her. As they reached the doorway, Maya’s phone rang, and she instinctively glanced at the screen.It was Bennett again.Maya’s expression changed instantly, her face tightening in frustration and fear. Azalea noticed and stopped in her tracks, looking at Maya with concern.“Is everything alright?” Azalea asked gently, her voice carrying a note of curiosity.Maya snapped her head toward Azalea, her expression sharp. “Mind your own business, Azalea,” she spat out, her voice laced with irritation.Azalea raised an eyebrow, surprised by the venom in Maya’s tone, but she didn’t press further. Maya turned on her heel and stormed away, her phone clutched tightly in her hand. As she disappeared down a side corridor, Vick, who had been standing nearby, stepped closer to Azale
