Chapter 19

POV: Liora

Kael did not speak immediately after I told him there was more.

He stood a few steps away from me, his posture controlled, his attention fixed in a way that made it clear he was done entertaining partial answers. The air in the room felt heavier now, not because of tension alone, but because we had reached a point where avoidance was no longer possible. Too much had already been said. Too much had already been exposed.

He was waiting.

Not impatiently,but deliberately.

  • Alpha’s Deceptive Mate   Chapter 129: The rising of Malakar

    POV: LIORAThe colossal hand gripping the edges of the shattered prison tightened with terrifying strength, sending fractures racing through the ancient stone like lightning splitting the night sky. Every crack released another torrent of crimson mist that swallowed the Heart Chamber in an eerie haze, turning the silver glow of the Moonstone into little more than a distant beacon struggling against an endless tide of darkness. The entire mountain groaned beneath the strain, and the ground trembled so violently that broken pillars collapsed into the abyss surrounding the ancient sanctuary.A crushing force pressed against my chest, making every breath feel heavier than the last. The fragment sleeping inside my blood responded instantly, surging through my veins with blazing silver energy that spread beneath my skin. The mark behind my shoulder burned with such intensity that I instinctively reached toward it, only for the Blade of Ardyn to blaze brighter in my grasp. The weapon hummed

  • Alpha’s Deceptive Mate   Chapter 128: The Prison Beneath the Moon

    POV: KaelThe voice rolled through the Heart Chamber with such overwhelming force that the mountain itself seemed to recoil from its presence. Ancient pillars groaned beneath the crushing pressure, while rivers of silver light flowing through the cavern darkened around their edges, as though even the blessing of the Moon Goddess struggled against the power awakening beneath the shattered seal.Every instinct within me erupted at once.My wolf threw itself against the walls of my mind with a fury I had never experienced before. Every hair along my arms stood on end, while the bond connecting me to Liora blazed hotter than it ever had, urging us closer together as though our combined strength offered the only protection against whatever had spoken from the darkness.Ardyn's grip tightened around his sword.For the first time since meeting the legendary king, I saw genuine concern shadow his expression.His calm had vanished.His confidence remained, yet something far older than fear res

  • Alpha’s Deceptive Mate   Chapter 127: The Throne of Shadows

    POV: LioraThe journey through the buried city ended at the edge of a cliff that overlooked the deepest place beneath the First Kingdom, and the sight waiting beyond stole every remaining breath from my lungs.The Heart Chamber spread beneath us like the center of another world. Its ceiling disappeared into darkness, while rivers of silver light flowed through enormous cracks in the stone like veins carrying life through the mountain. Countless pillars circled the vast chamber, each carved with ancient wolves kneeling before the Moon Goddess. Suspended high above the center floated an enormous crystal unlike anything I had ever imagined. The Moonstone glowed with breathtaking beauty, its surface shifting between silver, blue, and white as streams of pure energy spiraled around it like living stars.Beneath that magnificent light stood another throne.Unlike the throne we had discovered above, this one radiated an entirely different presence. Black stone rose from the earth in twisted

  • Alpha’s Deceptive Mate   Chapter 126: The Last King’s Burden

    POV: KaelThe world seemed to lose its balance the moment the ancient warrior removed his helm.Every story I had heard as a child suddenly became real.Every legend whispered around winter fires.Every tale dismissed by scholars who believed time had buried the truth forever.They all stood before us in flesh and blood.Ardyn.The first king.The warrior who forged peace among rival packs.The Alpha whose name had survived thousands of years after his kingdom vanished from history.For several heartbeats, silence ruled the ruined city beneath the mountain.Even the distant tremors seemed to pause as though the mountain itself recognized its first ruler.The silver-haired king studied us with calm, unreadable eyes. Time had carved wisdom into every line of his face, while countless battles had left their mark across the scars visible above his armor. Blood stained the edges of his silver breastplate, and several deep cracks ran across the ancient metal, revealing fresh wounds that sho

  • Alpha’s Deceptive Mate   Chapter 125: The Heart of Darkness

    POV: LioraMatthias’s voice lingered through the corridor long after the words faded, wrapping around the ancient passage like smoke drifting through ruins.A cold feeling settled deep within my chest.Every instinct I possessed reacted immediately.Danger, hatred and violence.The bond connecting me to Kael tightened as his wolf responded to the same threat. Power moved through him like a gathering storm, controlled yet fierce enough to tear apart mountains if given a reason.The corridor stretched endlessly ahead of us.Silver flames burned along the walls, illuminating carvings older than any kingdom still standing. Images covered every surface. Ancient battles. Moon-blessed rulers. Great cities that once dominated the continent. Massive beasts bowing before crowned wolves.History surrounded us.History and warnings.The deeper we walked, the more the mountain seemed alive.The stone pulsed faintly beneath our feet.A steady rhythm.Almost like a heartbeat.I tightened my grip on

  • Alpha’s Deceptive Mate   Chapter 124: Into the Heart Chamber

    POV: KaelThe silence that followed the ancient command carried a weight heavier than any battlefield I had ever crossed.Every warrior inside the Hall of Kings stood motionless as the glowing passage stretched open before us. Silver fire burned along the walls of the newly revealed corridor, casting shifting shadows across stone carved by hands that had turned to dust thousands of years ago. The path seemed alive somehow, breathing with ancient power that resonated through the mountain itself.The chosen heirs must walk alone.Those words still echoed through the chamber.Nobody argued with the decree.Nobody attempted to challenge it.Every wolf present had witnessed enough during the past few days to understand one truth.Ancient magic followed rules older than kingdoms.Rules that cared little for mortal opinions.Thomas broke the silence first.His expression carried the same mixture of concern and irritation he often displayed whenever destiny complicated his life."I feel deepl

    Pov:KaelThe decision I had made the night before did not feel like a victory.It felt like stepping onto ground I knew was already cracking beneath my feet.By morning, the weight of it had settled fully into place. There was no retreat from it now, no quiet way to undo what had already begun. I h

  • Alpha’s Deceptive Mate   Chapter 59: The Bond That Remembers

    POV: KaelThe moment we stepped fully into the circle, the world stopped pretending this was still a battlefield.The sound collapsed inward.Not vanished, but pulled tight, as if everything beyond the edge of the forming seal had been forced into silence. I could still see movement at the edges of

  • Alpha’s Deceptive Mate   Chapter 49: The Letter of Blood and Ash

    POV: LioraI woke to the scent of cedar smoke and crushed wolfsbane.For a moment I did not know where I was.Pain drifted through me first, dull and heavy, before memory returned in jagged fragments. The courtyard. Matthias. Bram’s betrayal. The arrow. Kael’s arms around me. His voice breaking in

  • Alpha’s Deceptive Mate   War Beneath the Throne

    POV: Liora Sleep did not come easily to me that night.Even after I left the training yard, even after the air between Kael and me had settled into something quieter, though no less complicated, my mind refused to follow. I lay on the narrow bed in the barracks, staring at the ceiling, replaying e
