DERRICK’S POV

“No! No! It’s not her. It’s not Oprah!”

The words kept screaming inside my head, louder than the music in the hall, louder than the reporters yelling questions across the ballroom, louder than the violent pounding of my own heart.

My fingers tightened around the armrest until the wood beneath my grip cracked slightly.

Impossible.

The woman standing on that stage could not be Oprah.

Yet every part of me already knew the truth.

The cameras kept flashing endlessly toward the podium,

  • THE ALPHA'S GREATEST MISTAKE    RESTROOM

    DERRICK’S POV"I really do not want to know." Oprah said. Her emotionless mask stayed firmly in place, but her face looked paler than before.Something was wrong. I could feel it in my bones. It was as if she had seen a ghost. Her fists balled tightly at her sides."Now if you will excuse me, I need to use the restrooms." She continued. Before I could react, she walked past me and headed in the other direction.I swallowed hard. I did not know what to say or how to react.I knew I should not be here. I knew I should not be this close to her. But I could not stay away.When I saw her rushing toward the entrance earlier, I knew something was wrong. My wolf had confirmed it. I had seen the man from earlier. She had been staring at him, and he at her. When she bolted out, I knew she was going after him.That was why I left the ballroom immediately after Lilith stepped down from the stage. She had welcomed the master of ceremonies to continue with the fundraising. She then told me she need

  • THE ALPHA'S GREATEST MISTAKE    GONE

    OPRAH’S POV"Looking for someone?"The voice came from directly behind me. Low. Calm. Too calm.Every muscle in my body locked. My heart slammed against my ribs like it wanted to escape. Cold sweat prickled along my spine. I knew that voice. I did not know how, but something deep inside me recognized it. It was as if I had met the owner beforw. My instincts screamed at me not to turn around.But I did. Slowly.A man stood a few feet away. Tall. Broad-shouldered. His face was partially shadowed by the dim lighting, but I could see enough. Sharp jawline. Dark eyes that seemed to pierce straight through me. He was not smiling. He did not need to. His presence alone commanded the space around him. And...there was something dangerous about this man. I didn’t know what, but I just felt out of place being in front of him. My body screamedfor me to run. But not anymore. "Indeed it has been years, and you've changed to a confident amd bold woman," he said quietly. His voice carried no threat,

  • THE ALPHA'S GREATEST MISTAKE    MYSTERIOUS MAN

    OPRAH’S POVThe chants grew louder with every step I took."Miss Voss.""Miss Voss.""Miss Voss."I kept my head high and my shoulders straight as I walked toward the podium. The emerald gown swayed with each movement. My red hair caught the light from the chandeliers, drawing even more eyes. I could feel the weight of every gaze in the room. Cameras flashed relentlessly. Whispers rippled through the crowd like waves.Lilith stood frozen at the podium. Her smile remained fixed, but I saw the way her fingers dug into the wood. Her knuckles had turned white. Her chest rose and fell too quickly. She was losing control, and she knew it.Derrick stood slightly behind her. His hazel eyes followed me the entire way. His expression stayed carefully neutral, but I caught the tension in his jaw. His wolf was close to the surface. I could almost feel it.Alexander walked beside me. His hand brushed mine for a brief second. Steady. Reassuring. His quiet confidence gave me strength.I reached the

  • THE ALPHA'S GREATEST MISTAKE    STEALING THE SPOTLIGHT

    OPRAH’S POVI saw him across the crowded ballroom. His suit fit him perfectly. His hair was combed neatly back. That small smile played on his lips, revealing the single dimple on his left cheek. His eyes. Goddess. He looked exactly like my son. It was as if Zarek had chosen to take every feature from this man.I would be lying if I said the sight of him did not affect me. He was breathtakingly handsome. The way he raised his brows sent heat rushing through my body. I tightened my grip around the stem of my champagne glass. My thighs pressed together instinctively. My heart throbbed heavily in my chest.What was happening to me? I should not be feeling this way. Not for him. I pushed the thoughts down and tried to focus on why I had come. I needed to stay sharp."What do you mean?" Lilith lashed out, pulling me back to the present.I pushed aside my wandering thoughts. I made sure my expression remained calm and composed. I smiled, my head held high and my shoulders straight."Let us

  • THE ALPHA'S GREATEST MISTAKE    LEGAL

    DERRICK’S POVI could feel it in my gut that something was wrong. I did not like the idea that Lilith had invited Oprah to her charity gala. That woman was planning something. Even though I hated the thought of attending, I knew I had to go.I finished the last of the documents and paperwork on my desk. There was always so much work that demanded my attention. That was the price of leading both a pack and a company.I sighed and pressed a hand to my forehead. The headache from earlier had returned with full force. What had Lilith been doing during those sixteen years that my men could not uncover? Where had she been? Could it be true that she was Elizabeth Hunter? Then what Dominic had said hit me like a blow. She was his foster sister.I swallowed hard. The air in my lungs suddenly vanished. I felt like choking. My eyes widened."She is Dominic's foster sister." I murmured to myself."That only means Dominic knows something about her past." I stood abruptly, twirling the pen in my ha

  • THE ALPHA'S GREATEST MISTAKE    THE GALA

    LILITH’S POVEverything was in place. The preparations had gone flawlessly. So many volunteers had stepped forward that I barely spent a cent. Waiters in crisp uniforms moved gracefully among the guests, carrying trays of champagne and hors d'oeuvres. The men wore tailored tuxedos, the women exquisite gowns and jewels that sparkled under the grand chandeliers. They all claimed to be here for the greater good, but I knew better. They came to be seen.My speech had worked perfectly. The crowd had swallowed every word. They believed the narrative I fed them — that whoever tried to tarnish my name was the real villain. Comments flooded my social media. Some insulted the liars. Others pitied me. Many sent donations to support my charities.I smiled as I glided through the elegant ballroom. The expensive chandeliers cast golden light across the room, creating soft shadows on the faces of the wealthy elite. I could not have asked for more.I passed groups of guests, keeping my gentle and inn

    OPRAH’S POVI scanned the faces of the department managers and personal assistants from all seven branches of Voss Jewellery gathered on the video call. A quiet sense of pride warmed my chest.

    LILITH’S POV"How could you?!"Derrick filled the wide-open doorway. His face remained stone cold. Veins bulged across his forehead. His mouth hung slightly open, teeth grinding together. His hazel eyes flickered and shifted into burning golden yellow as his wolf fought for control. His chest rose

    DERRICK’S POV"Lucas!" I roared. My chest heaved with each breath. My heart slammed against my ribs. My hands shook as I curled them into tight fists until the knuckles turned white. I had shoved the phone into my pocket just in time. Otherwise it would have shattered in my grip."Yes, Alpha." Luca

    DERRICK’S POV"Where is he?" I demanded. My fists clenched tight at my sides and my teeth ground together as I strode through the dungeon grounds."This way, Alpha."
