Anita’s PovAs I stepped out of the car, I felt a wave of relief washing over me, finally away from the suffocating atmosphere my stepmother always brought with her. Her words were like poison, slipping into every crack she perceived in my defenses, but I knew better than to let her see the effect they had. I turned, taking a deep breath, and faced her one last time.“You should remember,” I said firmly, my voice clear and unwavering, “this is not your pack. And you’re not Luna here. You don’t have the power to cover the sky with one hand, not here.” I allowed myself a small, victorious smile as I watched her eyes narrow. “And if Alpha Hades finds out about your little threats, he won’t be pleased.”For a brief moment, I saw a flicker of unease in her expression, but it vanished almost as quickly as it had appeared. She crossed her arms, tilting her head, her lips curling into a mocking smile.“Oh, please,” she sneered. “Do you really think Hades would dare offend an entire pack just

Anita’s PovThe ballroom was awash with soft lights, laughter, and music, but I felt far from relaxed. I did my best to ignore the watchful eyes of my stepmother across the room, hoping to get through the evening with minimal interaction. The elegant green silk dress Alpha Hades had chosen for me felt both empowering and exposing, drawing glances I was unaccustomed to. I forced myself to stay focused on my duties as his assistant and kept a polite, composed demeanor.But just as I thought I’d managed to avoid her, I felt a light touch on my shoulder. I turned, and there she was, a feigned look of pain on her face as she gestured toward her ankle.“Oh, Anita,” she whimpered, a hand pressed against her ankle. “I think I’ve sprained it. Would you mind helping me with my shoe? Just a quick rub on my ankle might ease the pain.”I stared at her, a mixture of irritation and disbelief bubbling inside me. Even here, surrounded by the pack, she found a way to attempt to humiliate me. I kept my

Anita’s PovI sat there, still reeling from my flashback, the words of my stepmother echoing in my mind like ghostly whispers, haunting and relentless. Evelyn’s threats had cut deep, stirring old wounds, and I could feel the weight of them pressing down on me. I swallowed hard, fighting to steady myself, but the bitter taste of fear and frustration lingered, gnawing at my being.Taking a shaky breath, I forced a small, bitter smile and stood, determined to leave before the pain could resurface and overwhelm me. But as I turned to go, Alpha Hades was already on his feet, reaching out and quickly closing the space between us. His expression softened, his eyes holding a depth of understanding that both surprised and disarmed me.“Anita,” he called, his voice gentle but filled with pity. “Wait.”I stopped, looking back at him, and something in his face made me pause. He took a step closer, his gaze steady as he searched my eyes, as though he could see the turmoil swirling inside me.“I’m

Anita’s PovThe heat blazed beneath my skin, relentless and suffocating, like fire spreading through my veins. I pressed my back against the wall, desperate for its coolness, hoping it would offer some relief. Yet, the stone was as warm as the air around me, failing to quench the fire burning inside. Every nerve in my body felt raw, exposed, tingling with an energy I couldn’t control.Alpha Hades stood mere feet away, his gaze locked on me, flickering between concern and something more important. His eyes held a storm, shifting as if he were at war with himself, trying to suppress an urge that clawed at him from the inside. I watched, heart pounding, as he gritted his teeth and flexed his jaw, the tension in his features becoming painfully visible. With a sharp tug, he loosened his tie and rolled back his cuffs, exposing the sinew and strength in his forearms. My breath caught; it was as if he were trying to release the restraint he fought so hard to keep.A low murmur stirred within

Evelyn’s PovThe dim glow of the streetlights illuminated the car’s interior just enough for me to make out Beta Damian’s silhouette as he strode confidently into the building, his shoulders squared, every inch of him projecting strength. My eyes narrowed, watching intently as his gaze scanned the hallway ahead, alert and cautious. Echoes of his footsteps sounds as he walked through the place. A second figure trailed close behind him—a man in a white coat, his demeanor giving him away as a doctor. It was obvious now: they’d called for help. Damian was leading this doctor to Anita, no doubt to patch up whatever small vulnerability we’d managed to exploit.I leaned back against the leather seat, my fingers curling into fists. A bitter smile twisted my lips, but it was tainted by the sinking realization that this plan, meticulously crafted and flawlessly executed—or so I thought—had failed. I could feel my frustration simmering just beneath the surface, cold yet fierce, like ice ready to
