Rhea’s POV

I sat quietly in my room, nervously waiting while the council meeting was underway. I wasn’t permitted to join, and honestly, maybe it was for the best. I knew I’d be nothing but a distraction, especially with everything that had been unfolding lately. But even so, I couldn’t shake the feeling that something was about to go horribly wrong. What if Maya couldn’t get the evidence we needed to expose Emily’s schemes?

Just as my mind began to spiral, a frantic knock echoed from the door.

    Rhea POVEven though I was trying to find a way to stop everything, my muttering of Alpha Killian's name did not mean that I wanted him to actually hear me. But funny enough, he heard me as he turned around to me and shrugged his shoulders."What do you want?" he asked me as I rubbed the back of my head."I wanted to see you, but I guess you are really busy right now with this fight and stuff like that," I said to him as he laughed."You are very, very funny. You want to see me? We have not talked for ages, and all of a sudden you want to see me when we are supposed to be talking. You want to see me? How do you expect me to react to that?" he said to me.I turned my gaze to Rodger, who was looking at me in anger, as if I was trying to ruin his plan. Of course, God damn it, I was trying to ruin your plan, okay? I don't want it to work out, I said to myself as I rolled my eyes and turned back to Alpha Killian."Is this meeting that important?" I said to him as most of the council member

    Rhea POVI sat patiently in my room since I was not allowed to attend the meeting they were having today. I decided just to stay away from them and not even get involved at all. And now I didn't even have anything to do. So I just had to sit here and hope that Maya was able to get something that would help us in our plan to get back at Nora.That was when I heard the maids knocking on my door. I opened the door only to see that it was Maya. She quickly slammed the door shut and made sure to lock it as she rushed towards me, dragged me by my arm, and sat me on the bed."I think that their plan has already begun.""Already? What are we going to do?" I asked, confused."We did not get the chance to take evidence from Nora before they started their plans," Maya said to me."What do you mean by their plans have already begun? How? I have not seen anything happen, and I am still very much all right," I replied as she smiled."It is not about that, okay? Rodger has started. I know that you m

    Rodger pov“Instead, I am going for that throne. I am sorry, Rhea, but I could not keep my promise of being a good person. I also need power too. Now I know how it feels to have so much power. Look at me. I had no power because I was the main person in that meeting. Look at how I was praised and talked about, respected. I want that. I want what Alpha Killian has. What he has that makes him feel like he has the whole world. I'm going to have it, and I'm going to have triple of it, and there is absolutely nothing he can do about it but watch me become better than him, and I will make him suffer. I will let him pass through everything I am passing through. I will let him be mocked by people, and mostly he will be mocked because I will take everything right under his nose like a fool that he is. I will make him see that he is even more foolish than he can ever imagine,” I said to myself.The next morning, Alpha Killian called for a meeting, which he usually does. But funny enough, I was g

    Rodger povAs I drove back home, I couldn't help but be so worried for Rhea. “I don't know how I'm possibly going to do something this treacherous to her. They expect me to do their plans like it is nothing. Yes. I don't want my mom to be home from the royal family, and I don't want us to lose our position. At the same time, I don't want Alpha Killian to see that we are not a threat. I want him to know that anytime, anytime I would be able to take away everything he owns. I also want that power. I also want a taste of power. Alpha Ethan was right. If I get a taste of power, then I will understand what Alpha Killian sees in that throne that makes him want to keep it no matter what.”I suddenly began to feel so jealous that I did not think about Rhea anymore. Instead, I thought about everything that I wanted and how I wanted it to go so perfectly. “If only things could go as perfect as I want them to be, then I would never have a worry at all and instead would just be in a perfect posit

    Maya pov“That is not enough reasons for you to tell me all these things. Do you know what it means? You telling me that I am in danger is like you letting the bad guys win. Because I literally now will be protecting myself. But I don't understand. How do you know?” she asked me, and that was when I became speechless.I did not know what to say anymore. I don't even know how to respond to that. How am I going to tell her that I am actually the mastermind and the main person sent to kill her and terminate her just so that Alpha Killian will be in depression just because of his loss of her?“Because I was sent here by Alpha Ethan to eliminate you. That is my job. I don't have any other job here than to eliminate you and then leave. And as soon as I can,” I said to her.And she immediately had a different way of staring at me, like she was scared and feared that I might just be lying to her and actually want to kill her. This was what I didn't want at all. I knew that confessing the trut

    Maya povEven though I was very hesitant and I didn’t know how to face Rhea with this, I knew that I did not have any choice and I had to come up and tell her the truth because that was the only way I was going to get her out of this in one piece or else she would just become a victim of what they want to do to Alpha Killian because honestly, Rhea did not do anything wrong to them so I don’t know why they are manipulating her and they want to deal with her this way so I have to protect her by all means possible.I slowly walked towards her room and stood in front of our room for almost five minutes, unable to knock. I did not even know where I was going to begin from. I have thought and thought about everything, but I don’t even know where I’m going to start from. I don’t know how I would start explaining to her that she would even be able to understand me. All those things mixed up in my mind made me so frustrated.I turned around. I was about to go in disappointment. Maybe I would d
