LOGINAlpha Klein moved closer to Ria—not too close, but close enough to catch the faint scent that lingered around her. His piercing eyes locked onto hers as Ria instinctively tried to step back. Before she could, his hand shot out and wrapped firmly around her wrist, stopping her.He stared deeply into her eyes, searching every flicker of emotion.“What is hidden inside that head of yours?” he asked quietly, his voice calm but dangerously sharp. “What are you hiding that suddenly made you so desperate to cross into another border?”He narrowed his eyes.“Are you trying to hide… or are you planning to form another alliance?”Ria quickly shook her head.“Of course not, Alpha Klein. I just wanted to see what the other territories are like. And… for a long time, I’ve wondered how you’ve managed to rule this place as the greatest Alpha.”Klein immediately shook his head.“Don’t say that.”He pointed a finger at her before looking away.“You’re hiding something. I don’t know what it is yet… but
As Ria finished saying those last words to Alpha Klein, her heart trembled.She almost staggered as countless thoughts raced through her mind.What if the trackers never went anywhere? What if they simply carried out the new task he had given them instead? What would happen to her mother?The thoughts echoed endlessly in her mind as she slowly walked back to her room.That same evening, Alpha Klein summoned his trackers once again.This time, he sent them to investigate a nearby rogue pack.At the exact moment they were about to leave, he had already positioned himself along the route they would most likely take and waited in hiding.When the trackers departed, they first headed straight toward the location mentioned in the message.They carefully followed the trail until they reached the place.After arriving, they remained there for nearly an hour while Alpha Klein silently watched them from a distance.Eventually, they left the area and diverted toward another path.Alpha Klein con
Ria grabbed the leaf from Alpha Klein.He stood there for a moment, staring at her before turning around and leaving her alone with her mother.The others glanced back briefly before walking away,Ria quickly helped the woman up from the floor and led her toward her room.As soon as they entered, she shut the door behind them.“Why would you admit to this when it clearly wasn’t you?”Ria’s voice came out immediately as the woman remained silent,Ria gently held her shoulders.“I know you didn’t do it, and no one can convince me otherwise.”She raised the leaf.“This,I will find out where it came from and who did this and you don’t have to take the blame.”The woman’s voice came quietly.“I did it, Ria…”Ria’s face darkened as she slowly sat down on the bed.“Do you even realize what you’re admitting to?”“Alpha Klein could kill you for this,you didn’t do it.”“No… you didn’t.”The woman slowly shook her head.“I served the water to him.”Ria’s eyes widened as the woman nodded.“Yes Ria,
Alpha Klein didn’t say anything when he saw Ria quietly tiptoeing back into the room.Instead, he stretched lazily on the bed, his eyes still heavy with sleep.“I looked for you…” he murmured in a sleepy whisper as he adjusted the blanket over himself.Ria let out a slow breath.“I went to be with my mother…”Alpha Klein didn’t respond and within seconds, his soft snores filled the room once again.Ria remained standing for a while before quietly lying down on the bed.But sleep didn’t come immediately.Her thoughts drifted back to everything she had witnessed.Dan…Dan was dead.Who killed him?Why were Klein’s trackers already there before it happened?How did they know something was going to happen at that place?And the biggest question of all…Why didn’t they do anything?They watched everything happen,They watched Dan struggle.Watched him get stabbed,watched him die.Yet…None of them moved.Question after question flooded her mind until exhaustion finally won.Her eyes slowly c
Her Mother’s face remained mute, as though she hadn’t noticed that the padlock to her room had suddenly been changed. She still acted as though everything was normal, but she felt a strange uneasiness that she couldn’t bring herself to explain. Alpha Klein removed his gaze from her and fixed it on her mother. “This will be the room for your stay. I hope you will feel comfortable in it.” Her mother remained calm. She sat still and only gave a tiny nod,Alpha Klein turned toward ria and held her hand gently. “You don’t have to worry about anything or Ethan attacking you all again. This place is fully secured.” She nodded and slowly released the breath she had been holding because she was aimlessly waiting for tonight. Bella had grown restless ever since she heard that the trackers would be leaving tonight. It was exactly 8:00 p.m. that same evening when she noticed movement.First from Alpha Klein. She had agreed to sleep in the same bed with him. She hadn’t agreed to be in
Alpha Klein obediently, as though Ria had just controlled him, led her toward a more secluded place. It was a plainly built structure situated at the far end behind his house. There stood what looked like a hidden cabin. He summoned a few people. Ria didn’t know how he called them, but somehow they heard him immediately. There were three of them. The men were huge, their bodies covered with thick muscles. All three had long hair resting on their shoulders. None of them smiled. They remained silent, wearing the same stern expression as though they were constantly waiting for urgent orders. Alpha Klein raised his hand and pointed at them one after another. “You don’t need to know their names, but these are my most trusted trackers in this pack. They have never failed.” “They can travel anywhere and know every route.” The moment he mentioned traveling anywhere, Ria’s heart skipped. This… This was exactly what she needed. At that moment, her mind was no longer foc
Alpha Klein moved through the corridor like a predator waiting for its prey, his eyes sharper than they should have been, the Morning had barely broken but yet his senses refused to let him rest. His thoughts kept dragging him back to Ria.His jaw tightened a bit as he paced slowly across the long
Michael’s mind was screaming at him as he walked out of the room.Without looking back, he made his way straight to the old oak tree he usually went to whenever something troubled him. He lay beneath it with a heavy sigh, his spine cracking softly as his back settled against the root.His thoughts
Ria’s heartbeat slammed violently against her chest as she tried to force herself out of the grip, but his hold only tightened. Without warning, Michael pulled her into him. Ria froze instantly as his arms wrapped around her firmly and protectively, as though shielding her from something unseen
“I think we’ve been noticed.” The voice came out in a whisper. Sleek’s eyes widened instantly as he quickly turned sharply toward the figure standing behind him. The woman quickly shifted backward, hiding her face deeper beneath a dark hooded cloak woven from thick wolf fur, the silver edges g
