Caleb’s POV

Turns out, I was right. We arrive at the crime scene, and it's a goddamn massacre. Five bodies; two locals and three of Mason’s guards, are sprawled out like discarded dolls. Torn open, mangled. The same signature wounds as the maid back in Blood-howl. Deep slashes, broken bones, no scent trail, just carnage.

  • Alpha's Mistress and the Beta   106. A Place Called Home

    Raven's POVThe drive to the Johnes estate was quieter than I expected. The silence wasn't uncomfortable. It wasn't filled with regret or uncertainty. Instead, it felt warm, like the first rays of sunlight after weeks of rain. Mrs. Johnes sat beside me in the back seat, stealing glances every few seconds as though she feared I would disappear if she looked away for too long. Each time our eyes met, she'd smile. Not the polite smile strangers exchanged. It was softer it felt like peace, like home.The word mother and father still felt foreign in my mind because I had never experienced it. For years I'd watched other children run into their parents' arms while I pretended I didn't care. I'd convinced myself I was strong enough to live without ever hearing someone call me their daughter.Now, life had proven me wrong. "You've gone quiet," Mrs. Johnes whispered. I laughed nervously."I'm just... trying to believe this is real." Her fingers immediately found mine."It is my dear, you are ou

  • Alpha's Mistress and the Beta   103. Finally over.

    Raven’s POV I rush back ignoring Caleb, he's done so much for me and it's my turn now. I am strong and capable. At Nadine-West I notice Raphael’s soldiers are moving slower and their glowing armor dimming as if someone is draining the life out of them. I looked around and I see him, the man that made me come back here, Raphael, He’s hunched over, one knee on the cracked ground, hand pressed against his chest where I struck him. Blood coating his fingers, dark and thick. His breaths come in sharp, ragged pulls, each one sounding like they tear through his lungs. He looks up as soon as I step forward. His eyes turn storm blue, his gaze unstable but beneath all that I see a flicker in them or maybe it's just my imagination. “R... Raven…” he coughs, a thread of awe and agony mixed. “You came back.” He sounds glad, but his voice icks me. I glare at him, lightning sparking in my palms, I just want to finish him off because if I leave him he'll come back to hurt us again. “You

  • Alpha's Mistress and the Beta   102 . It was a ploy.

    Raven’s POV I feel so uneasy, I pace up and down the kitchen with my coffee mug in my hand, he should be back by now, or maybe sent a message for me. But this silence is something he's never done, he has never wanted me worried, then why is he so quiet today? Suddenly, the bond snaps tight in my chest and I drop the mug in my hand. It shatters on the kitchen floor, but I don’t hear it. My heart is pounding too violently, something is definitely wrong. 'Caleb?' I whisper through the bond but I don't even feel him, all I feel is pain, just pain. I must go to him, he needs me. The pain intensifies, I clutch the kitchen counter steadying myself as my vision darkens at the edges. Then suddenly I hear a scream, he screams for me, he's hurt. 'Baby, I'm coming!' I focus all my power in searching for exact place he is. The air around me flickers, the lights shimmer, shadows stretch, wind rushes in from nowhere. I teleport to where my heart leads me, to him. Fear grips me as anot

  • Alpha's Mistress and the Beta   101. The fallout.

    Caleb’s POV The takeover of Nadine-West should have felt like victory. The land is settled, patrols are established, Mason and Zahra are secured in custody. Warriors are tending to the injured, reorganizing territory, standing tall after a clean strike, everything is finally… quiet, too quiet. Even Morris feels it, pacing the perimeter with a frown carved into his face, something heavy sits in the air, something waiting. I try to shake it off, but the unease clings to me like a second skin. I left Raven earlier with a promise I’d return, and as the sun dips low, all I want is to go home, to lay beside her, to breathe. I’m halfway across the courtyard when the wind suddenly shifts, the ground trembles once. “What the hell was that?” a warrior whispers, before we can comprehend what's happening another tremor is heard , then another. Morris stiffens. “Positions... now.” He orders but before the command fully leaves his lips, the sky tears open. A storm, black and electric, f
