“You’re not ready for this.” She folded her arms. “Try me.” Something in his expression shifted—less ice, more storm. “You think this firm is just a law office?” he said. “We sit on ancient courts. We settle blood feuds older than your textbooks. I don’t run a business, Zara. I run a kingdom.” She stared at him. Her mouth parted slightly, but no words came. “The Heir Trial,” he continued, voice low. “It’s not ceremonial. It’s a fight for leadership. For the right to shape the future of the Five Clans.”

Her reflection in the window looked unrecognizable: soot‑stained, hair pinned back in functional defiance, eyes that hadn’t truly slept. “Welcome home,” Adrian said from across the aisle. “If home still applies.” She exhaled through half a smile. “Home is just geography before the first headline hits.” Luca powered up his portable rig, still drowsy from the sedatives but alert when screens cascaded awake. “Public feeds already spinning,” he said. “They’re calling you ‘the crowning heir returning with ashes.’ Poetic nonsense.” “Poetic is deadly before breakfast,” Adrian muttered, scanning the perimeter.

Father said, voice hardening. “I will not play favorites. This is a meritocracy. The son who graduates with the strongest academic record and demonstrates superior social and negotiation skills will become CEO. The Castillo tradition is old and no longer holds weight in this new world.” My mother’s lips parted in disbelief. “You’re… pitting your own sons against each other?” “It’s called competition, Isabella,” Father said, eyes like cold steel. “The world doesn’t hand power to the lazy. Alejandro’s charm doesn’t impress me, and Diego’s intellect means nothing if he can’t lead. Whoever proves both brains and influence will inherit the company. Final decision.”

She thought as her heart started racing faster. There was a long pause before she finally opened her mouth to speak. "If your granddaughter is of noble blood, does that mean you are too? I don't think I recall what house you belong to." She knew that there were thirteen main noble houses, some of their names she had them committed to memory because they were friends and acquaintances of the General. "Lord Earn of House Whitby." A chill ran down her spine. Of course, she should have known. The old house, the old man, the staff he carried, the weird way he talked and looked at her.

"Training all my life didn't come from just being a regular wolf. It's because I was born into the Alpha family. And being a son of the Alpha, I have to fend for myself in terms of survival. A crisis could break out any time and there would not always be anyone there to help me out," "What exactly is an Alpha? Is that like a president or something?" I suddenly ask to satisfy my curiosity on the topic. "Think of it as something like that but then for a smaller organization. More like a county head. I think that description should work," Nodding, I ask, "And your father is the Alpha of whatever pack you say you come from?" "The Silver Falls pack, yeah. He's the head and I should be the next in

"From the very beginning, the heir was the one in Stella's belly!" "This was just an unacknowledged bastard, a creature no one wanted. Why should he have been born?" "So he could live his life branded as a 'mutt'?" I was a walking corpse, shuffling toward the future Don, leaving a trail of scarlet on the floor. Each step left a bloody footprint, a gruesome trail of what we had lost. I stopped right in front of him and asked, my voice devoid of emotion. "Tell me, who was ever looking forward to the birth of the true Gallo heir?"

he called as softly as he could and got their attention when he got closer. Dean was surprised to see him. But he can't hide his happiness. He misses him after a week of not seeing him. He misses Sean terribly. "Bun, you're here! When did you arrive? Why didn't you tell me?" he exclaims happily using his pet name for him for the first time since they made up. Employees that are present at the lobby stare at their boss in astonishment. But what got their attention more is Sean’s presence. Sean, the infamous heir of Chairman Stuart Williams. The eldest son of the Williams. The heir of the Empire Group of Companies. The lost prince.

Isabella stood by the pool, watching him go, her heart aching. The will reading was held in the library. Isabella sat beside Sebastian, Lucas, and Lily in her lap, her mind still reeling from her conversation with Damien. The lawyer read from a document, his voice droning, the words blurring together.

“Later, she bore a girl and named her Caelora. A name to stake her own pride, her own triumph.” “Yes… yes,” I murmur, quiet following the cadence of his words. “So, where are you headed?” I press, urgency lacing my voice. I need to understand why Caelora is suddenly a reason I can follow him. He leans closer, tone low, deliberate. “You remember I told you, on my mother’s side, the females hold the real standard. The heirs to the true hierarchy, the legacy itself.” I blink, catching the weight behind his words.
