Chapter: The First MoveMayaI heard them before I even stepped into the dining hall.Light laughter.Women's giggles.The occasional clink of silverware.I lifted my chin, straightened my shoulders, and continued down the long hallway with calm, measured steps.Every servant I passed lowered their heads respectfully, though I noticed more than a few curious glances following me. Word had undoubtedly spread that I had finally left my room after isolating myself for days.Let them watch.A slow breath escaped my lips as I stepped into the dining hall.The laughter instantly became clearer.As expected, Alaric sat comfortably at the head of the long dining table. On either side of him sat his two favorite whores: Ava, the blonde with the overly sweet, fake smile, and Kendra, the brunette whose smirks always seemed to drip with mockery.The table overflowed with food and wine. It looked more like a royal banquet than a simple breakfast.The moment I appeared, every pair of eyes turned toward me.Ava was the fir

Chapter: A Queen AwakensMayaI sat by the window, staring at the endless snow-covered mountains stretching beyond the walls of Snow Jade Pack.I had been staring at them for so long over the past few days that I had practically memorized every peak and every frozen ridge.They were beautiful, cold, and empty... just like I felt. At some point, I had simply stopped caring about anything. The knock on my bedroom door broke the heavy silence. I didn't answer. A moment later, the door slowly opened."My Lady..."Isabella stepped inside carefully, carrying a silver tray filled with warm food. Steam still rose from the bowl of soup, and the fresh scent of baked bread quickly filled the room."Good morning," she greeted softly. "The maids told me that you've refused to eat for the past few days. So I thought... perhaps I should bring breakfast to you myself."I didn't even bother looking in her direction."I'm not hungry. You should take it back."I expected her to leave. Instead, I heard the tray being placed gen

Chapter: UnderstandingLyraThe moment I heard that Kael had finished meeting with the elders, I didn't waste another second.For hours, my thoughts had refused to settle. Ever since Gwen told me about Alara's identity, questions had been circling endlessly inside my head, refusing to leave me in peace. I had tried convincing myself to wait... to trust Kael enough to explain everything when he was ready.But every minute that passed only made the uncertainty worse.Taking a deep breath, I made my way through the familiar corridors until I reached Kael's study.I knocked once, then slowly pushed the door open.Kael sat behind his desk with his attention fixed on the laptop in front of him. Several documents were scattered around the desk, evidence that he had thrown himself straight back into work after the elders' meeting.The sound of the door opening drew his attention. He lifted his head. The moment our eyes met, his serious expression softened into a warm smile."Lyra."His voice was gentle, almost reli

Chapter: No Way BackMaya"Have you gone crazy or something, Maya?!" Damien's furious voice burst through the phone the moment I answered. "What nonsense is this about you wanting to leave Alpha Alaric? Did you hit your head somewhere?!"His voice was so loud that I had to pull the phone slightly away from my ear.I closed my eyes and took a long, shaky breath, trying to calm the storm raging inside me."Damien..." I said hoarsely. "Alpha Alaric isn't the man all of you think he is.""What is that supposed to mean?""It means everything you've heard about him is a lie. He keeps women around him all the time. He sleeps with them without caring how I feel. He doesn't even try to hide it from me anymore."Damien let out a scoff, but I ignored it and continued."I can't even leave the pack house without asking for his permission first. Every single thing I do has to be approved by him. I can't go anywhere. I can't even make the smallest decision about my own life."My fingers tightened around the phone until

Chapter: Life In IronClaw Pack Freya The day I stepped into IronClaw Pack was the day I truly discovered what hell looked like.Beta Jasper never allowed me to forget why I was there. He made sure that everyone in the pack, both old and young, knew I was a murderer.That label followed me everywhere.No matter what I did...No matter how quietly I lived...No one saw anything else.The Alpha was rarely present in the pack, because of that, Beta Jasper ruled almost everything.If someone asked me to describe him using only one word… Cruel.No. Even that wasn't enough. He was the most heartless and wicked man I had ever encountered.During my first days inside the pack, he had personally ensured I received punishment after punishment.The beatings and whippings had been so merciless that I believed I wouldn't survive them. Only after he seemed satisfied for nearly a week of constant beating and whipping, had he final

Chapter: A New NightmareFreya "Freya!"Naomi's shrill voice echoed through the washroom before she appeared in the doorway with her arms folded tightly across her chest."What the hell is taking you so long just to wash a few toilets?" She clicked her tongue in annoyance before glaring at me with disgust. "Seriously? Even a snail moves faster than you do. Can't you be more agile and efficient?"The other servants standing behind her burst into laughter.I didn't respond. Instead, I lowered my head and continued scrubbing the cold stone floor around the toilets as though I hadn't heard a single word.That was the safest way to survive here.I had learned that lesson the hard way.Keep your head down.Do your work.Never answer back.Never argue.Never defend yourself.And if luck happened to smile on you... You would be allowed to eat that day.That had become my entire life.

Chapter: Where I BelongREGINA I made my way to Marcy’s room shortly after seeing Lionel. She looked so small lying there, her face pale but serene. Her hands rested on her swollen belly protectively, even in her sleep. My heart clenched at the sight of her. The sister I had thought I’d lost forever was here again, and despite everything we had endured, there was hope. Then I thought of the tragedy that had befallen her—of Silas and everything else. Victor had indeed taken more than we could imagine. “Marcy,” I whispered as I approached her bed. Her eyes fluttered open, groggy but quickly filling with recognition. “Regina?” she murmured, her voice hoarse. I nodded, tears already welling up. “It’s me.” She eased into a smile. “I just knew you could do it. I just knew you could. You’ve always been just too strong.” I laughed as I planted a kiss on her forehead. “How’s the b

Chapter: A New Dawn
LIONEL The first thing I noticed was the sterile smell of antiseptic. My body felt heavy, but the softness of the hospital bed was comforting. Slowly, I blinked my eyes open. Regina’s face came into focus. Her hair was slightly disheveled, dark circles shadowed her eyes, but she was the most beautiful sight I’d ever seen. Her hand rested on mine, her touch grounding me. “Lionel,” she whispered, her voice filled with relief and tenderness. Tears welled up in her eyes as she leaned closer. “You’re awake.” I managed a weak smile. “Hey…” Before I could say more, Grandpa appeared by her side, his face a mixture of concern and relief. Ryker and Gwen were there too, their expressions lighter than I’d seen in days. “You gave us quite the scare, kid,” Grandpa said, his gruff tone unable to mask the emotion in his voice. “Victor?” I rasped, the memories of the fight f

Chapter: ShowdownREGINA “No,” I whispered, cradling Lionel closer. His breathing was shallow, his usually vibrant eyes clouded with pain. Victor stood a few paces away, lowering his weapon with a chilling casualness. “You should've just cooperated with the plan, Regina.” He chuckled disdainfully. “You and that pathetic excuse of an alpha.” “Don’t you dare!” Marcy’s voice cut through the tension, and I turned just in time to see her charging at Victor. “Marcy, no!” I screamed, but it was too late. Victor swatted her away like she was nothing, sending her flying into the side of the truck. She hit the metal with a sickening thud, collapsing in a heap. My mouth dropped open, my scream coming uncontrollably. “Stay down, girl,” Victor sneered, turning his attention back to me. I froze, my arms tightening protectively around Lionel. Every instinct screamed at me to fight, but my b

Chapter: Let’s End ThisREGINA I and Marcy had been together in the room, waiting, when we heard the sounds of the war going on outside the building. Lionel was here. At first, a feeling of joy and assurance rushed to me, but almost immediately, a certain panic rushed through me when we had waited for quite long enough and Lionel was yet to show up. “Are you sure he’s still okay?” Marcy asked, the fear in her voice evident. “He is okay.” I replied with all certainty. “Nothing could happen to Lionel!” Then the men suddenly stormed in, barking orders. Marcy and I rose hastily and followed the men down the corridors, all the way to the back of the warehouse. Soon, we were out in the dark and there was nothing but the dim lights of the moon to guide us through. I could still hear the faint buzz of war on the other far end of the building. Axel led the group of Victor’s men, his expression unreadable, but

Chapter: Final ConfrontationLIONEL His taunting words drove me mad, but I refused to give him the satisfaction of seeing me fall apart. I clenched my jaw, focusing on my breathing as I adjusted my stance, preparing for the next round. But Victor wasn’t done. He was playing with me, like a predator toying with its prey. He danced just out of reach, circling me, his every movement calculated, precise. “You know, Lionel,” he began. “I’ve always admired your strength. But strength doesn’t mean anything when it’s built on lies. Your so-called ‘perfect love’ with Regina? It’s a joke. You’re both weak, just like your parents were. Too sentimental. Too tied down by your pathetic little bond.” His words struck harder than any blow he could throw, reminding me of all the mistakes I’d made, of all the things I’d failed to protect. The past kept clawing at me, refusing to let go. I roared in fury, charging toward him once more, but this time, I cou

Chapter: AmbushLIONEL All I needed was a location and just that, Arturo had provided. Another site, another holding of Victor’s. Even if it meant going to a hundred locations this same night, as long as I was not dead, I was going to set my eyes on Regina and there was nothing that could be done to change that. As we drew closer to the warehouse where Regina was supposedly held, we knew better than to just storm our way in. We needed to maintain a low profile. The warehouse loomed ahead, its corrugated metal walls dull and rusted under the dim glow of the moonlight. A faint chill ran down my spine as I scanned the perimeter. This was the place. I could feel it in my gut. Regina was inside, and I wasn’t leaving without her. Ryker crouched beside me, his face set in grim determination. Arturo and his men from the Eric Circle pack fanned out behind us, their movements silent and purposeful. Each of them carried

Chapter: The Choice Of My HeartAmber“Of what use are you to the family, Amber?!” Father began yelling angrily. “Tell me! What use? You can’t just do one single thing right!”I sat in front of my parents like a criminal waiting for judgment. Their eyes were cold… disappointed… almost disgusted, as if I were some prodigal child who had wasted their fortune and shamed the entire family. A part of me had always feared this moment, but another part; tired, aching, exhausted, had long expected it.“The Eurasian project,” he continued loudly. “Our company's golden chance was right there in front of you! Served to you on a platter of gold! All you had to do was make one sacrifice! Just one! Yet you let it slip away!”I clenched my fists so tightly my nails dug into my palms. The words I wanted to spit back were burning the back of my throat, but I forced myself to swallow them.He continued pacing, waving his hands in frustration.“As the heiress to this prestigious company, you can’t even complete a simple task?!

Chapter: FarewellColeI barely even waited for the car to stop properly before I jumped out and sprinted toward the front door with Xavier right behind me.The moment I burst through the door, the scene in my living room froze me in place.Skylar was seated on the couch, Ingrid beside her, with one arm around her shoulders as if protecting her.And Luciana sat on the opposite couch.Her eyes… God, I had never seen eyes look so empty. Soulless. Like whatever held her together had died with Amelia.My feet quickly moved straight to Skylar’s side.I knelt in front of her, took her hand immediately in both of mine, my eyes running over her face, her arms, her belly, her legs—everywhere.“Are you okay?” I asked quickly. “Did she do anything to you? Did she threaten you? Are you hurt?”Skylar shook her head gently. “I’m fine.”I let out a deep breath, one I didn’t realize I’d been holding until now. As long as she was okay, I could handle anything else.Then I turned to Luciana.“What are you doing in my ho

Chapter: When the Night Finally BreaksColeI kept pacing back and forth along the edge of the landing pad. My eyes kept drifting to the sky, scanning for the helicopter’s lights.It was almost dawn, and every few seconds I checked my watch. The night had stretched longer than any I had lived through. Too much had happened too fast; death, rescue missions, calls to lawyers, threats, arrests, so many things happening at once.But in all of it, the thing weighing on my chest the most at this moment was Xavier.I dragged a hand through my hair and exhaled for what felt like the hundredth time.Finally, I heard the distant thump of rotating blades.I froze in place, eyes locked on the helicopter descending toward the pad.And Xavier stepped out.I exhaled in relief when I finally saw him. He looked exhausted; drained, stiff, dirt smudged on his face, but he was alive… and that was all that mattered.I walked toward him while he did the same, hugging tightly like two brothers who had spent the whole night fighting different bat

Chapter: The Faces Behind the MasksXavier A few hours later… I heard the loud sirens echoing off every corner of the house. I stood outside the house — the same house where only hours ago, I had been initiated as a “new brother,” surrounded by men who had sworn loyalty while secretly plotting to kill me. Police officers rushed in and out, dragging men one after another in handcuffs. Or brothers, as they loved to call themselves. I watched them all carefully. Every face. Every reaction. Every twitch. These were the men who had operated in shadows for decades. These were the ones who had caused destruction while hiding behind donations, foundations, titles, and fake smiles. And then one of them appeared. Mr. Peterson. Minister of National Infrastructure Development — a man respected for “reviving the country’s rail and road systems.” He stepped out slowly, escorted by two officers. His hands were cuffed, but he carried himself proudly. His suit was still neat, barely wrinkled, his silver hair perfectly in place.

Chapter: The Night Masks CrackedXavierEarlier that same day…“That's quite impressive, Mr. Xavier,” Kane praised, tapping rapidly on his keyboard. The screen in front of him was flooded with charts, stock dips, and coded reports.I forced a smile. “Thanks.”But the moment he lowered his head, my smile faded.Nothing here was what I expected. Nothing.The brotherhood wasn’t just a wealthy network of powerful men with secret wealth and connections. No—this place was a den layered with lies, shadows, and darkness.After they had taken me away in that helicopter, they brought me into this hidden estate, more like a fortress, and introduced me to a man called Mr. White.He was the one who told me everything. He was the one who “oriented” me.Or… brainwashed me, I guess they assumed.I had walked in thinking I understood the brotherhood’s operations: illegal trades, manipulations, political influence, hidden hands guiding public decisions.Standard underground power games.But the truth?The truth was filthier.

Chapter: The Final ClashColeI had never run so fast in my life.The moment I got to the parking lot, I froze.Lorenzo gripped Amelia with one arm while holding a gun to her neck with the other.In front of them, Officer Rodriguez and the rest of the NYPD had their guns raised, forming a half-circle.“LORENZO! DROP THE GUN!” Rodriguez shouted.When Marcus messaged me about Amelia being auctioned, I didn’t even hesitate to call Rodriguez immediately and give him every detail I had before leaving my house with my entire security team.Everything we had done since Austria had led to this point. We had gotten information from Austria that Lorenzo was bringing Amelia to New York, and had searched the entire city, but we kept finding nothing. Lorenzo had been too careful. Officer Rodriguez even had to stay in New York the whole time, refusing to go home or switch cases until Amelia was found.Thank goodness Marcus had sent that text tonight.But now… the situation looked nothing like something we could control.“A
