Chapter two hundred and twenty one

Alpha Bran’s POV “Shit!” I muttered under my breath at the sound of the dry leaves under my foot. My gaze snapped toward the lake instinctively toward Serafine. Even from where I stood, concealed by the treeline, I saw that she was looking at the forest. She must have heard the noise.Damn the fucking leaves. They were going to expose me after I had watched her for three months now.Every single day for the past three months, I had been careful, watching her from afar. Keeping my distance. Never getting close enough for her to sense me.But today I had stayed longer than I should have. Because she was laughing. The sound of her laughter did something to me, making it impossible to walk away when I needed to.Three months ago, she barely smiled.Now she laughed freely, splashing water, teasing Clara, racing her like nothing in the world had hurt her. Like I had never hurt her.A bitter taste filled my mouth.Maybe this version of her was better off without me.That had been the point

chapter two hundred and twenty two

Serafine’s POVI watched Grayson disappear into the woods, his figure swallowed by shadows and towering trees within seconds.I sat there, my feet still dipped into the lake, Clara’s head resting heavily against my shoulder. She had fallen asleep, completely unbothered by whatever had just happened.I wished I could say the same. My gaze lingered on the treeline. Something had been there. I was sure of it.My fingers curled against the wooden edge of the dock. If Grayson hadn’t heard it too, I would’ve brushed it off. Told myself I was overthinking. But he had heard it too.I sighed, forcing my shoulders to relax. Grayson emerged from the trees, walking back toward us. “Well?” I asked, shifting slightly to keep Clara from sliding off my shoulder.He stopped a few steps away, glancing briefly at the lake before looking back at me.“There’s no one,” he said.I frowned. “No one?”He shook his head. “Nothing.”I studied him for a moment, searching his face, but he looked certain.“If yo

Serafine’s POV “I don’t think that’s a good idea,” Grayson said.Clara crossed her arms. “And I don’t think staying here alone is a good idea either.”I didn’t take my eyes off the window. “She’s right.”Grayson looked at me like he was trying to figure out if I was just being stubborn.“I’m not letting you go alone,” I added quietly.Something in my voice must’ve convinced him, because his shoulders dropped after that. “Fine,” he muttered. “We go together.”Clara clapped once. “Road trip in the rain. Love that for us.”“You won’t love it if you slow us down,” he shot back.Within minutes, we were out the door. The sky had shifted by the time we got into the car.What had been a calm evening earlier was now swallowed by thick clouds, the air heavy and tense. The first crack of thunder came just as Grayson started the engine.Clara flinched. “Okay… maybe I don’t love this that much.”The rain started as a drizzle. By the time we hit the main road, it turned into a downpour.Grayson

Chapter two hundred and twenty four

Alpha Bran’s POV‘What if it has something to do with the evidence that was destroyed three months ago?’My hand paused in the middle of buttoning my shirt. Water still clung to my skin, sliding down my chest in slow trails. My focus sharpened, every instinct snapping to attention.Aric chuckled through the mindlink. ‘I knew that would get your attention.’I sighed, dragging my fingers through my damp hair before reaching for the rest of my clothes. “Stop playing games, Aric. Say what you have to say.”There was a brief pause on his end, like he was enjoying this just a little too much.‘You didn’t even try to pretend you’re not interested.’My jaw tightened. “Aric.”‘Okay, fine. I found the one who tampered with the evidence.’Every calm in me vanished. My wolf stirred beneath my skin, reacting to the shift in my emotions.I straightened, fingers curling into fists at my sides. “Who?” I demanded, impatience slicing through my voice. “Who was it?”‘You couldn’t even wait, could you?’

Chapter two hundred and five

Alpha Bran’s POVThe door to my office opened without a knock. What followed next was Ember's voice, “I brought you lunch since you've refused to come down.” I leaned back in my chair, watching as she walked in with a tray balanced in her hands.She set it down in front of me, adjusting the plates with practiced ease.For a second it felt like I wasn’t Alpha. It felt like I was a boy again. A boy who had nothing and no one. But her. To me, Ember was the mother I didn't get to have. “Thank you,” I muttered, reaching for the food.She didn’t respond. That was the first sign something was off. I started eating anyway, hunger catching up with me after skipping dinner last night and breakfast in the morning. The food was good as always. But Ember’s silence was troubling. Her gaze lingered on me, making me uncomfortable. It wasn't typical of Ember to fix her gaze on me without blinking once.I could tell that she had something on her mind. I sighed, not even bothering to look up. “What

chapter two hundred and twenty six

Alpha Bran’s POVI stood at the edge of the forest, the wind brushing past me, carrying scents from miles away. Behind me, Aric approached, silently. Bane and Lupin lingered further back, shadows among shadows, along with four others I trusted enough to bring into this.“Everything’s in place,” Aric said quietly.“And Kael?” I asked.“He went in ten minutes ago.” Aric answered.“Michael?” I added.Aric exhaled. “He is still at his grand father's estate.”I rolled my shoulders, feeling my wolf stir beneath my skin, eagerly. Tonight wasn’t about shedding blood. But if it came to it,I wouldn’t hesitate.“We move now,” I said.As we moved further, Kael’s residence came into view through the trees. A small, isolated building surrounded by trees. Exactly the kind of place a man like Kael would choose to live if he thought secrecy would protect him.We spread out without needing to speak. Aric to my right. Bane circling wide. Lupin taking the rear with the others.I approached the front,

Chapter two hundred and twenty seven

Alpha Bran’s POVThe forest felt different on the way back.Kael’s scent lingered faintly behind us, fading with every step as Bane and two of the guards hauled him deeper into our territory. His muffled protests had long since died down, replaced by silence.I walked ahead, hands tucked into my pockets, my mind far from the present.“Where do you want Kael kept?” Aric asked from beside me, snapping me out of my thoughts.“Keeping him at the main holding cell is too obvious. Anyone can see him there. Put him in the inner cell at the lower wing. That way we are sure no one can have access to him if I didn't permit.” Aric nodded once. “Make sure no one goes in or out without my permission.” I repeated.“Understood.”We walked in silence for a few more steps before he spoke again. “What about Michael?” That made me stop. The others halted immediately behind us. I turned slowly, my gaze drifting through the dark trees.“Let's leave him for now.” I said and resumed walking.The packhous

Chapter two hundred and twenty eight

Serafine’s POV My blood ran cold hearing my name from the other side of the door.Grayson’s posture shifted as he stood rigid and alert. Clara slowly set her fork down, the faint clink against the plate sounding too loud in the silence that followed.“Open the door, Serafine,” the voice came again, more strained this time. “Please.”A strange pressure built in my chest. I couldn’t explain it, but something about that voice tugged at something buried deep inside me. Grayson stepped in front of me before I could move.“Stay back,” he said, his tone leaving no room for argument.“I—” I swallowed. “I think I know that voice.”His head snapped slightly toward me. “You think?”Another knock. This time weaker. Slower.“Serafine… please.”Clara looked between us, unease written all over her face. “Okay, this is officially creepy.”Grayson moved toward the door cautiously, I followed despite his earlier warning, stopping just behind him. Clara stayed close to me, her hand gripping my arm tig

Chapter two hundred and twenty nine

Serafine’s POVThe wolves lunged at us, their bodies bursting forward from the darkness, their snarls tearing through the storm as lightning cracked above us. Their claws scraped against the wooden porch as they charged, eyes glowing red with pure hunger.“Serafine!” Grayson roared.“Grayson!” I screamed, fear coating my voice.Grayson wasn't given the time to shift as the first wolf slammed into him, sending both of them crashing into the side railing. Grayson grunted, twisting his body as another lunged for his throat. He caught it mid-air, his fist colliding with its jaw in a sickening crack before shoving it aside.Another came from behind. And then another. They gathered around him. He fought them all in his human form, brutally and relentlessly.My heart pounded violently in my chest.“Grayson!” I screamed again, trapped on the floor by the wounded man. His grip around my ankle tightened. Pain shot up my leg as I tried to yank free. “Let go!” I cried, clawing at the wooden floo

Chapter two hundred and thirty

Alpha Bran’s POVThe bond pulsed strongly at the sight of Serafine outside, under the rain. Being held by a man. Ryker growled as he lurched forward harder. Aric by my side, and Bane and Lupin behind us. They were in their wolf forms too.It didn't take long for me to get to the man, snapping his head off his body. That was for daring to touch my mate.Serafine sat on the floor, mud clinging to her skin, her breathing fast and eyes wide with not just fear but recognition of our bond. It snapped into place so violently it nearly knocked the air out of me.‘Mine.’ The word echoed deep in my head.I dropped into a crouch in front of her, forcing myself to focus past the pull. Past the way my wolf was pacing inside me, wanting to take our mate here and now.“Are you hurt?” I asked.She nodded too quickly. I could hear her the fast beating of her heart. Behind me, another snarl tore through the air. One of the rogues lunged, only to be intercepted mid-air by Lupin’s wolf. The sound of bo
