All Chapters of Arianna's Fate: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Alpha kael povI forced a smile, trying to appear nonchalant despite the suffocating tension that had settled over the dinner table. Elaine's gaze lingered on me, her eyes sparkling with an unsettling intensity that made my skin crawl. The sound of my spoon clicking against the ceramic plate seemed amplified, a stark reminder of my dwindling appetite. My father's voice cut through the silence, his tone laced with concern. "Son, are you okay?" I nodded hastily, my eyes darting towards him in a bid to escape Elaine's piercing stare.The visiting alpha's son, Dorian, chuckled softly, his eyes crinkling at the corners as he took in the scene. I suspected he had noticed Elaine's foolishness, and a part of me was grateful for the distraction. Elaine, however, seemed oblivious to the undercurrents of tension. She continued to smile at me, her lips curled upwards in a saccharine gesture that made my stomach turn.As the dinner conversation flowed around me, Elaine suddenly pushed back her ch

Kael povI could feel the tension in the air, a palpable electric current buzzing against my skin. It wasn’t merely the late hour or the cool wind—it was something deeper, an instinct that set my nerves alight. The sight of Arianna and Dorian, standing there in the dark with his predatory smirk aimed at her, twisted my gut into tight knots.I slammed my fist against the window, the glass rattling in response to my fury. I knew exactly what this was: Dorian had his sights set on her. To him, she was not just a servant; she was a puzzle to be solved, a conquest to claim, and that was unacceptable. I wouldn’t allow it. Not when it came to Arianna.My fingers itched for the landline. The moment she entered my thoughts, everything else faded away. I grabbed the receiver, dialing the mansion's main house before hesitation could take hold. The phone rang twice before a servant picked up, and I wasted no time.“Arianna,” I commanded, my voice sharp and infused with authority. The word ignited

Arianna povThe laughter echoed, like a hundred wind chimes clashing in the breeze. The sound cut through the air, and it wasn’t until I was nearly past the group of pack workers that I heard the stammered words from one of them."Thank goodness she will be executed soon."The words stuck in my throat, the weight of them hanging in the air, thicker than the suffocating smell of earth and sweat. My footsteps faltered for a moment, the impulse to turn back overwhelming, but the fire inside me refused to let it show. I had heard whispers of my fate—whispers that turned my stomach with fear, whispers that now seemed to ring true in their cruel mockery.I spun on my heel, my eyes narrowing, and marched back toward them."Who are you talking about?" I demanded, my voice sharp and unyielding, betraying none of the dread churning within me. I refused to be weak in front of them.The pack workers looked at each other, their gazes flicking nervously between one another, but then one of the girl

Elia POVThe scent of freshly brewed coffee lingered in the air, mingling with the faint trace of pine from the surrounding woods. The pack house stood like a fortress against the gray sky, its stone walls reflecting the rising tension inside me. I moved through the lobby with purpose, scanning the room for any sign of my mate, Alpha Kael. His presence was always commanding, magnetic—almost impossible to overlook. But today, it felt as though the very air had swallowed him whole.The flickering fire in the hearth cast shadows against the stone walls, making the atmosphere feel colder than usual. My heartbeat quickened as I glanced around again, determined to find him. Where could he be?"Elaine," a smooth voice cut through my thoughts, warm and inviting, with a magnetic pull of its own.I turned toward the sound and found Alpha Dorian standing at the end of the hall, a smile tugging at the corner of his lips. His strong, handsome features softened by the warmth in his gaze didn’t sway

Kael povI had been waiting outside her door for what seemed like forever. Ten minutes felt like ten years. I could hear the soft sounds of their conversation inside, Dorian's familiar voice, gentle yet persistent, and the delicate quiver of Arianna’s. Each word felt like a heavy weight on my chest, and with every breath taken in that room, my heart shattered a little more.I couldn’t confront her. Not in this moment. Not when everything I had failed to shield her from was collapsing around us. I felt a familiar wave of anger swell within me, like a raging fire ready to engulf everything around it. It was the same anger that surged whenever I witnessed her tears, whenever she gazed at me with eyes filled with confusion and pain.But I couldn’t shield her from this. She had been destined for this long before I understood how deeply I needed her, how profoundly I loved her.And it was that very love that tethered me to this destiny. I was the Alpha. The prophecy declared that I couldn’
