LOGINThird Person POV“Uncle,” Xavier started, his mind racing as he desperately tried to find a good excuse to clear his name. “You have it all wrong.”“Is that so?” Alessandro raised an eyebrow. His expression remained cold as he waited to see what his nephew would say next.Xavier walked toward Alessandro with a look of hurt and confusion on his face. “Yes. Why would I ever want to harm you? You're my family,” he said, trying to step closer to show his sincerity.But Alessandro took a smooth step back, keeping a reasonable distance between them. He didn't trust Xavier at all, and this time, he wouldn’t let him have his way.“Don't lie to me, Xavier,” Alessandro said, his voice filled with warning. “I know exactly what you’ve been doing behind my back.”“Uncle!” Xavier exclaimed as he stammered, trying to brew up a lie. “If… if you are talking about that recent wolf attack, then you really have misunderstood me!”“Oh? So you are aware that your wolves attacked me?” Alessandro scoffed, hi
Third Person POVAdira stood in Alessandro’s garden, watering the plants. She was dying of boredom. Ever since she had arrived, the master of the mansion had strictly forbidden her from lifting a single finger as she was still on bed rest.“What is wrong with me?” Adira muttered to herself, staring blankly at the wet leaves.Alessandro had strictly commanded that she had to rest and heal and even had threatened that if she tried to do any chores, the house maids would be the ones punished for it. Because of that, she was left with nothing to do.Is this what it feels like to be pampered?The thought came to her mind before she could stop it. The moment those words echoed in her head, she gasped, dropping the garden hose in shock as she slapped her own cheeks in horror.“What the hell am I even thinking!?” she scolded herself, her face flushing crimson. He was a dangerous Alpha, not someone she should be getting comfortable around.Adira was still in her thoughts when she heard a voice
Alessandro’s POVI glanced at Mason and gestured for him to shut his mouth, since Adira was right there with us.“Forgive me, Alpha,” Mason apologized quickly. “I… I was in a rush and ended up blurting it out.”“Who is it?” Adira’s voice came from behind me, demanding an answer. “I have the right to know since I was the one who took that poisonous arrow for you.”“And who exactly told you to do that?” I scoffed, looking over my shoulder before glancing back at Mason, signalling for him to continue.Mason looked a little nervous, but since I had already given him the approval to continue, he started to speak.“It was our former classmate, Morrison. He’s the one who ordered the attack on you that day, but…” Mason paused for a moment; his eyes turned to look at Adira coldly.“Morrison?” I raised an eyebrow in confusion. Why the hell would he do something like that? Weren’t we on good terms? Why did he even bother attacking me? We had just met a month ago at our college reunion, and every
Adira's POVAfter Dr. Russell completed his evening checkup, I asked him if I could finally return to my own home."I'm afraid you can't leave just yet," Russell replied, pulling off his medical gloves and dropping them into the bin. "The tissue hasn't fully knitted together. However, you are cleared for short, slow walks around the grounds, and you should stick to light meals for now."I nodded in understanding. Russell opened the bedroom door, signaling Alessandro, who was waiting in the corridor, to come inside."I've checked her vitals," the doctor informed him. "She is stable, but the internal puncture will take another two to three days to close completely. I told her she could start taking brief walks."I lowered my gaze to the bedsheets as Alessandro stepped into the room, his eyes instantly locking onto me."Thanks. See you tomorrow," Alessandro told Russell. The doctor gave me a brief wave before exiting, leaving the two of us alone. "I asked Dr. Russell to let me go home,"
Alessandro's POV The woman from my dreams was definitely Adira. The voice matched exactly, even if her face had been blurred in the visions. I looked down at the bed; she was still asleep. Outside the windows, evening had already fallen. I never slept during the day, making this lengthy blackout a first for me.I stood up to leave, but the rustle of the sheets stopped me."Alessandro? What are you doing here?" Adira's voice broke the silence.I walked over to the wall and switched on the lights. She winced and tried to push herself up into a sitting position. Moving quickly, I reached the bedside and took hold of her shoulders, propping a few pillows behind her back to support her injured body."I need to speak with my brother," she muttered, looking around the mattress. "Can you give me my phone? I couldn't find it all day.""Hmm," I responded, barely listening to her words.With her awake, her pheromones were beginning to flood the room. The sweetness of honeysuckle filled the air,
Alessandro's POV I left Adira to her forced rest and returned to my quarters. After having a bath, I changed into a fresh suit and forced myself to eat breakfast before summoning Mason to the study."The hunter wasn't a part of those four wolves, Alpha," Mason reported, standing straight before my desk. "The rogue wolves were the only assets sent directly by Xavier. Now that we have definitive proof of his treason, do you want to confront him directly?""No. Those wolves were weak, incapable of breaching my perimeter, let alone dealing a fatal blow," I replied. "The hunter is our true target, Mason. It was a planned strike. How does a hunter infiltrate the heart of my territory undetected?"As my gaze locked onto his, an abrupt pain slammed into my chest. Blood rushed to my ears as a sudden surge of raw primal energy tore through my veins."Alpha, your eyes..." Mason stepped back instinctively, his posture tensing. "They have turned completely golden.""My rut... It's terrible this t
Adira’s POVI was stunned by the sudden slap, but not surprised, as it was not their first time doing something like that.I still remember getting slapped in my past life when I returned cheerfully after accepting Xavier’s proposal. But I was too ashamed to show my miserable face in front of the m
Adira's POV"Ahh!"I fell on the floor, blinded by the lights of the car. It was my mistake to run without looking. It was suffocating for me to even stand in front of Xavier, the man who killed me."Miss, are you alright?" the panicked driver asked me.I looked at the fresh bruise that appeared on
Adira's POV The radiant white light suddenly blurred my vision. I felt something heavy stuck in my head when I heard a familiar voice. “Will you marry me, Adira?” ‘What's happening? Where am I?’ I thought as I looked toward the source of the voice.It was Xavier.He was on his knees with a tiny
Adira’s POVThe driver didn’t answer.His hands tightened on the steering wheel.“Answer me!” My voice cracked as panic started crawling up my spine. “This isn’t the way!”The speed of the car increased, and the engine roared louder.“Stop the car!” I screamed, grabbing the handle and trying to pul
