Rafael’s POVMy eyes stayed locked on the flesh carving of the insignia of the Balt Pack.This did not make sense. Why would Blaine do something like this?The man was an evil son of a bitch but he was not reckless. This looked sloppy as fuck.“Wait, I thought he could not do that?” Detective Jane rightly said.“He must have run mad. His curse must have driven him insane. This is definitely him!” Ted said bitterly.I remained speechless. Who had a reason to kill Dr. Ian? He was like the last person I expected to die under any condition.When I heard there had been a killing at the hospital, I thought Rosa had lost her mind and gone after Katherine Cage, this… I was not expecting.“This does not look like the work of Blaine,” I said finally.“What?” Ted was dumbfounded.Even I could not believe what I was saying, it felt weird vouching for that devil.I shook my head, “Does not match his style.”Ted scoffed, “This is definitely him, alpha. I can feel it in my bones!”“But a direct atta

Rafael’s POV“Mom isn’t here, but I think you know this already,” Cass said.I stared at the little boy that held the door open, trying to gauge his thoughts. “You are right,” I said.“Then why are you here?” he asked, still blocking the doorway with his little body.“Hey, Cass, let Mr. Rafael in, what is your problem?” Andy interjected.He turned to look at his older brother who was speaking from an unseen position inside, “Stay out of this!”“Like hell I will!” Andy came into sight and bumped into Cass sending him staggering to the side.“Sorry about that, Mr. Rafael, come on in,” he held the door open.I gave him a small smile and nodded at him. “What is it that you do exactly?” Cass asked, following me behind.“Don’t pay him no mind,” Andy said. “Mom is not back yet but you can wait for her.”“No, he can’t.” Cass objected.I could not help but smile to myself as the boys argued. How nice it must be to grow up with siblings, something I never had and right now, it wasn’t looking

Lacy’s POVLucas was outside mum’s hospital room and he got up as soon as he saw me.“I am not here to fight, I just want to see how she is doing,” I said with my hands in the air, a sign of complete surrender. He stared at me and then he sighed, “Good, she has been asking about you… and the kids.”“I haven’t even told them about what happened to their granny yet, can’t bring myself to,” I admitted out loud.Lucas nodded, “That’s probably for the best. She would be out of here in a few days, no need to worry them.”I smiled at him, “Were you just being considerate to your nephews and niece?”He scoffed, “Whatever, come on in.”I followed behind him, the smile on my face getting bigger, “They are adorable, aren’t they? Even you can’t deny that.”He scoffed louder but there was mirth in his voice now, “Don’t you have any shame?”“Not at all,” I giggled.Lucas chuckled.My smile widened.I got a chuckle out of him, maybe things were not so hopeless.Mum was sitting up in bed getting che

Rosa’s POV“Mum, I am telling you. He was as crazy as a bat out of hell!”I was pacing back and forth in my mother’s chamber in the North Wing.“I think he know, Ma, I think he does! I have never seen him this angry.”My entire body shuddered as I recalled what happened.The alpha had never stared at me like that before, not with such a murderous gaze, a gaze that paralyzed me and made me almost piss myself.“Mum! You are not saying anything!” I began to panic.“Would you just shut it for a minute and let me think?” She snapped.My mother was seating in an arm chair with her right hand tucked under her jaw, “What else did he say?”“Nothing, he stormed off after telling me to stay away from that bitch.” I was breathing heavily as I tried to calm myself down.“He smashed my favorite mirror, mum. He did! We are screwed.”“Could you shut it and let me think?” She snapped again.I stared at her and smirked, “This is all your fault, you are the one that told me to go after Lacy. You caused

Rafael’s POV“How much is it going to cost?” I asked.Alpha Johnson’s voice sounded gruff through the phone, “Sixteen million, give or take.”I frowned, “The asking price is 10, what is the other 6 supposed to be for?”I heard him chuckle on the other end of the line, “Alright, make it twelve and let’s call it a day.”“Johnson, all you are getting out of me is 11 and it will be wired to your corporate account within the hour.”“Always as frugal as ever,” he commented, “Fine, eleven it is but don’t transfer it yet. Let the paperwork be finalized with Baron Steel first. I don’t want such huge sum accumulating dust and getting taxed.”“Let me know when. And Johnson… Don’t forget your own end of the deal,” I reminded him.“It is not me you should be worrying about. My vote alone will not get you the result you need. Who else have you managed to convince?”“You let me worry about the other votes, just do your part.”I hung up and frowned.Alpha Johnson was not wrong, I needed at least one

Blaine’s POV“What is this?” Lacy asked as she reached into the envelope and pulled out its contents.I leaned back and watched her expression as she went through them.She was shaking her head, a look of confusion on her face, “What are these? What am I looking at here?”She dropped the pictures that were in the envelope on the table and looked at me with a questioning look.“Blaine, what does this have to do with stopping the merger?”I smiled, “I take it you don’t know who any of the people in the pictures are.”“Am I supposed to know them?” she looked slightly irritated. “This is your smoking gun?”I decided to explain, “The man in the picture – that is alpha Johnson of Johnson Corp and the woman that he is fooling around with is the wife of the CEO of Baron Steels. The company Johnson Corp wants to merge with.”Lacy gasped, “What? Alpha Johnson is having an affair with the wife of the man he wants to do a merger with?”“Exactly.”She shook her head in disapproval, “But how exactl

KAMARASurprisingly, the morning sun was already high in the sky when my eyes finally fluttered open. I blinked at the digital clock on my nightstand. Almost 10:00 AM. I had completely slept in a luxury I hadn't allowed myself in what felt like centuries.Yawning, I pulled on a comfortable sweater and stepped out into the hallway, only to find Kaela walking out of her room at the exact same time, rubbing her eyes with a sleepy groan."What did you put in that food last night, Kaela?" I teased, leaning against the banister as we made our way toward the grand staircase. "I feel like I’ve been asleep for a decade."Before Kaela could even manage a groggy response, we reached the top of the stairs and stopped dead in our tracks.The entire living room below had been transformed. Streamers in deep gold and soft silver draped gracefully from the high ceilings, and a massive banner reading HAPPY 22ND BIRTHDAY KAMARA & KAELA! stretched across the main wall. Before we could even process the si

KamaraA Year LaterTime has a strange way of reshaping our lives when we aren't looking. For an entire year, I had completely buried myself in my studies, trading the dangerous chaos of my family’s world for the quiet, predictable rhythm of university lecture halls. The past year had changed everything.My phone buzzed in my hand, the screen lighting up with a name I had spent the last twelve months trying to lock away.Brian. He had reached out a dozen times over the past few months, begging for a chance to explain, to mend the wreckage he’d contributed to. And while he seemed to be doing well for himself now that his father was locked securely behind bars, forgiveness wasn't something I could just hand over. I didn't trust him. I didn't know if I ever would.With a definitive swipe, I declined the call, pushing the thought aside as the car came to a stop in front of the estate. I hadn’t been back properly in almost a year. But now I was finally here.And tomorrow…I was turning

KamaraI couldn't register the information at once.I looked at Dr. Laurence, but her face was beginning to blur into a smear of clinical white and sterile grey. “That can’t be true, right?” I looked at Elijah, desperate for him to tell me this was just another mind game, another lie to keep me off balance. “Right?”Elijah didn't look at me. He was staring at the floor, his hands shoved so deep into his pockets his knuckles were likely white. The doctor hesitated, then she slowly shook her head.“At the moment, I know it’s a lot to process. But it’s too early to say 'permanent,'" she clarified. "With intensive physical therapy and time, the nerves may recover. But for the foreseeable future, he’s going to be in a wheelchair.”May. Not would.I leaned against the wall, my heart fracturing. All I could feel was a violent, erratic thumping in my chest. He saved me, and this was the cost. "Does he know?"“I haven’t said it directly yet. But judging from his reactions…” She sighed softly,

KAMARA“I still think this whole thing is unnecessary.”A soft laugh left my lips as I adjusted the shopping bag sitting beside me in the backseat.“You’ve said that three times already,” I muttered into the phone.“And I’ll say it again,” Father replied smoothly. “We can have dinner without turning it into a royal ceremony.”“It’s not a ceremony,” I argued, smiling despite myself. “It’s literally just dinner.”“With enough food to feed an army.”“That’s because Kaela barely eats.”“And?”“And you eat…well…”A low chuckle rumbled through the speaker. It was strange.Weeks ago, speaking to my father felt impossible. Now we could somehow sit on a call arguing about dinner plans and food portions like normal people.Normal.I never thought we would get here.“You’re smiling,” he suddenly said.I blinked. “What?”“You always go quiet when you smile.”Something softened painfully in my chest.Maybe he was learning me too.I looked out the car window, watching the streets blur past. “Maybe

KamaraFor the next few days, Jace hadn’t woken up.The doctors kept saying he was recovering, though very slowly. There were too many internal injuries, too much damage his body had sustained, and every step of his treatment had to be handled carefully.It hurt hearing it every single time, but at least he was alive. That was the only thing keeping me together.Life outside the hospital had somehow continued moving, even after everything that happened.Matthias had finally been arrested.The authorities found enough evidence in the files we recovered to bury him for good, and whatever they discovered inside his house only made things worse for him. For once, justice was actually happening.And Elijah…I had seen him a few times over the past week whenever he came around to help with bills or check in on things. He looked different now. Lighter somehow. Like he was finally trying to rebuild himself after everything.I liked that for him.Honestly, I liked that for all of us. Maybe thi

Kamarawas it. My life up until this moment.They said minutes before you die, the best moments of your life flash before your eyes. But right now, all I could see was fear. The cold barrel of the pistol was a focal point of terror against my skin. I could smell the gunpowder and the sweat on Ricko’s palm as he hauled me up. My feet barely touched the floor."Mom, please..." My voice was thin and shaky."I'm scared. I don't want to die. Mom, do something!""Keep your mouth shut, girl!" Ricko snarled, his grip on my throat tightening until I felt the pressure in my eyes. He looked at my mother with an ugly grin. "You see her, Vivian? This is your handiwork. Every tear she sheds, every bruise on that boy on the floor, it’s all because of you. You ruined their lives before they even started living it."My mother was shaking so hard the gun in her hand was a blur. "No... I tried to protect them. I did it for my family… all I do is for my family.”"Look where that landed you!" He barked.
