Alexander paced around, and fury almost choked him as he lashed out at his guard for being careless enough to let Victoria and her daughters out of their sight."You bloody bastards! How could you let her travel without my permission? I explicitly told you to keep an eye on her. Can't you at least do something right in your lives?"They bowed their heads shamefully. Although Alexander knew his wife was cunning and would find a way to do whatever she wanted, he still needed to assign blame to someone.When he returned from his trip to the northern region and discovered that someone was actively seeking ways to expose Iris and gathering information about her family, he warned Victoria not to entertain her."But darling, we need to find a way to get Iris out of there. He could kill her. The lady assured me that she would protect Iris, but first she needed to determine whether her suspicions were correct.”Alexander agreed but never expected Victoria to go to the Lycan pack and attend the

IrisI sobbed quietly, and my tears echoed against the dank cell's cold walls. I've never felt more lost and alone in my life—not even when I was shipped to the sister sanctuary, when Ethan broke my heart and married someone else, or when my father repeatedly rejected me.This one really cut me. I couldn't think of anything else other than how Adonis' eyes drank me up, filled with pain for betraying him.I took him for granted. I took my freedom for granted and was a little foolish. My grief was overwhelming and painful, and I wept aloud while rocking back and forth.I curled up in a corner, attempting to find comfort on the hard, unforgiving floor, and my voice broke as I tried to sing to drown out my pain. Was there any hope for me?I whispered his name,m, and I longed for him to see the truth, to make him recognize that I wasn't his enemy. I, too, was a victim. I didn't choose to be born by my dad.“I'm sorry," I said softly, hoping that the air would carry it to Adonis. "I'm so so

Iris When I looked down at the abyss of water in front of me, fear gripped me. The wind tugged on my hair, whipping it across my face and temporarily blinding me. I imagined them pushing me, and I gasped, panting in fear. My feet shuffled backward, pulling away from the edge, and my eyes searched the horizon for any sign of escape. There was none. My body shivered, hoping that the love I shared with Adonis would soften his heart and make him understand that I had no intention of harming him. Boots crunched on the gravel, and the guards realized another set of vans was approaching. My heart began to beat so fast that I lost control. The guards' radio crackled, and they spoke in low voices. I could feel Adonis' presence. Fear gripped my heart when I noticed a third convoy with the syndicate flag. Panic was brewing within me; there would undoubtedly be bloodshed. When Adonis stepped out of the car, I choked back a cry and felt like my breath had been cut off. There was a cold, black

Sophia's heels clicked against the floor of the three-star restaurant on the outskirts of town. Victoria and her daughters sat at the window, waiting for her. Victoria and her daughter sat like royalty, their eyes cold, and their smiles oozed fakeness. If Sophia hadn't been trying to get rid of Iris, she would have sympathized with her because every member of her family despised her."Hello, darling," she said, offering Sophia a side hug. "How lovely to see you."Sophia forced a smile and sat across from them. She studied the menu, pretending to be uninterested. Her daughters sipped their wine with shark-like eyes, though one of them was clearly sympathetic towards Iris because she was the one who kept asking if Adonis would spare her life.The other wouldn't blink an eye if Iris died."I would like to thank you for everything, Victoria. Your assistance and timely response were impressive."Victoria smirked and leaned against her seat. "It was necessary. Iris is my husband's only leg

Alexander's irritation grew when he heard the soft thud of luggage being placed in the hallway.His annoying wife had returned.He clenched his mouth tighter, frustrated that she never listened to him. While she was gone, his mind was filled with worst-case scenarios.What if she never returned? What if Adonis finally got his revenge, and she was caught in the crossfire?He could imagine her excuse: "Darling, I had to go and represent you." That's why I'm your Luna."Stubborn, as always.Why the hell would she put herself in danger? Did she not realize Adonis was thirsty for blood?Victoria walked in with a bright smile, accompanied by her daughters, Bianca and Serena. Her eyes sparkled, and she broke into a wide smile.The maids bowed their heads in respect as she passed, and some rushed to take her luggage upstairs.“I'm happy to be back!”Bianca yawned behind her. "I'm going home to my husband. Please ask dad to try to get Iris out of there. I'm worried for her."Serena spoke up. “

IrisI sat on my bed in my new cell, gazing around in amazement. After days of being trapped in a dark, enclosed space with no human interaction, I felt like a different person.I was still in prison, but this cell was extremely comfortable. Gone were the endless hours of darkness when I could not tell if it was day or night. Now I could see sunlight streaming through the window; it was afternoon, and a garden faced me.My legs crossed as I sat on the bed's edge, testing its comfort. The bed was so spacious that it could accommodate two adults. In my head, I imagined Adonis lying there with his strong arms around me.Making love to me."You are such a fool," I said aloud.How could I think about Adonis when he hated me and knew who I really was?Although I tried to be realistic, it was difficult to stop thinking about him. About the moistness of his lips when we kissed, and how he made me feel like a woman. I shook my head, attempting to clear my mind of the dirty thoughts.I got up t

AdonisI woke up discouraged as fuck.Lightning flashed brilliantly and the rain pounded on the window pane. It matched the million thoughts in my head and made me reluctant to leave the comfort of my bed. It was my wedding day, and I felt like a prisoner, caught up in the aftermath of my own decisions. Dreadful morning. Nobody made marrying Natalia a matter of life and death. I brought this on myself.The girl I was desperately trying to forget appeared in my mind. I remembered the good times: our first kiss, her angelic voice, her warm core gripping me...Fuck!The images kept flashing one after the other, and I felt a physical pain in my chest.It was embarrassing to admit that I couldn't stop thinking about her despite the pain she had caused me.I wanted to hate her, to hate those forbidden memories, to cast them into the sea of forgetfulness.It made no sense to me that my enemy's daughter made me feel alive. It was terrifying how empty my life felt without her. I'd tried ha

IrisI slumped against the cold wall, yawning and feeling increasingly bored. I'd been stuck in this cell all day, listening to the rain fall outside. I wanted to be free, to go outside and feel the moon on my face.And not live like some fucking prisoner. I should be grateful that I wasn't imprisoned in a public cell alongside crazy inmates.They'd tear me apart and use me for their own entertainment and sport.My stomach growled, reminding me that I needed food. I hoped that someone would bring me food soon. The cell door creaked open, answering my prayers.I turned to look, and a young woman dressed in a maid uniform stepped inside, carrying a wooden tray. I smelled rice and my mouth watered. She placed the tray in front of me, and I noticed it was a plate of steaming chicken and rice pilaf. My mouth watered even more, the hunger growing stronger by the minute."Enjoy yourself, Lady," she said, but made no move to leave. The creamy sauce and tender chicken stared at me as I pick
