View More**POV Eleanor**"How is she, doctor?" Alpha Gideon asked anxiously beside me, watching as I was examined by the medical team."It's hard to explain, but she's not responding to any stimuli. I think she's blind," the doctor said, turning off the flashlight and noting information in my chart.A tear rolled down my face, and I immediately thought of my mother, who was born blind and despised by everyone for her disability. She was lucky my father loved her and didn't reject her as his mate. However, I was in the royal harem, where things were very different. I feared what King Alpha would do to me."But is the blindness temporary?" King Alpha asked suspiciously, struggling to believe that I really couldn't see."I don't know. We need to do more tests, but it seems permanent. Is there anyone in the family who has had this problem before?" the doctor asked, looking through the papers."Her mother was born blind!" Emaline, who was beside me, answered nervously.I swallowed hard, my hands co
**POV ALPHA GIDEON**I was in my room, completely disoriented. I destroyed everything around me; objects shattered into thousands of pieces, furniture was thrown against the walls and hurled to the floor. My completely wild wolf clawed at the walls of the room violently, emitting threatening growls. Every shard of glass scattered on the floor echoed the pain and anger consuming me in that moment of despair.Why her? Why did Eleanor have to die? The question dominated my mind, fueling the growing rage within my chest.Without caring about the consequences, I continued to demolish my room. The servants remained outside, afraid to enter when my wolf was out of control. I couldn't blame them; at that moment, I felt an enormous thirst for blood. I took a deep breath, leaning my arms on the table as my chest heaved with the irregular rhythm of my breathing. I frowned and noticed a contract signed by Eleanor Parker at the bottom of my drawer. Immediately, I crumpled the paper with force and
POV eleanorI remember that moment, like a surge of adrenaline that invaded my body and made me convulse, a sharp pain in my chest, as if my heart were being ripped out from within me, and a black liquid dripped from the corner of my mouth. The last image I had was of the alpha in his wolf form, staring at me intensely with his dark blue eyes. I tried to raise my hand towards him to touch him one last time, but I couldn't control my own body; within seconds, everything around me darkened, and I felt as if I were being taken away to a faraway place.***I opened my eyes again, and this time, I wasn't in the room anymore; it was a place covered in water with a flat surface, surrounded by mist, and I could see images of some wolves surrounding me. "Eleanor..." I heard the gentle voice of a woman calling me, and at once, she was seated on a rock next to an imposing white wolf, his fur shining, and he had beautiful green eyes just like mine. "Eleanor, come to me," she called me again, and
POV alpha Gideon The leaves crackled beneath my paws as I ran through the forest, smelling the damp earth and the trees around me. My dark fur gleamed in the moonlight, and my senses were heightened as I led my warriors on a nighttime hunt. I spotted Emily in the distance, running between the trees, her body covered in scratches from the branches, and her skin coated in mud and dirt. With a quick gesture, I ordered my men to surround her, climbing up the mountains to block any escape routes. I was determined to capture her. Emily would receive a punishment a thousand times worse for daring to escape; I would make her wish for death every day for daring to disobey my orders."Guards, get in position, we can't let her escape alive!" my wolf growled irritably, communicating through the mental link with the other warriors.I focused my mind and body on the prey before me. I made a powerful leap, ready to bring her down and sink my teeth into her right shoulder, about to rip her arm off w
P[OV EleanorI was in a deep sleep from which I couldn't wake. My whole body was paralyzed, and I felt intense pain all over. I couldn't communicate with the people around me; I only heard the doctors and nurses whispering anxiously."All the tests are normal; we don't know what she has," one nurse whispered to the other who was monitoring my vital signs on the monitor."She's breathing normally, oxygen saturation in the body is good, and heart rate is within parameters. Why won't she wake up? We've tried everything to stimulate her. Get another vial of glucose!" the other said impatiently.I felt a prick on my skin, and a needle pierced me; they were injecting another medication into me. Most of the medications were just to temporarily alleviate my pain. I alternated between unconsciousness and consciousness; at times, I was awake, able to feel touch and hear people around me, but I had no strength to move. My own body didn't obey my commands, and I didn't know what to do. I was foll
POV Alpha GideonI entered the filthy cell, the smell of death and despair penetrating my nostrils as I walked down the narrow corridor. Most of the prisoners had already been executed that morning, leaving only Johanna and her daughter, Emily. Johanna's body lay on the dirty floor, her lips purple from hanging, and her skin as pale as snow. As I touched her, I realized she was already stiff, indicating that she had passed away a few hours ago. However, I was only notified thirty minutes prior, fueling my anger."How did this happen?" I asked furiously to my beta, observing the surroundings filled with iron bars and sharp handcuffs marking the prisoners' skin."Emily convinced the guard that she needed to go to the doctor. Since we were still in negotiations with her mother, one of the requirements was to keep her alive," he explained, leaning against the wall."I said we would keep her alive! Not that we would set her free," I grunted, frustrated. "She should have been kept under con
POV Alpha Gideon"I am the cruel and relentless Alpha King, leader of the Shadow Pack! I am the one in charge here, damn it! I destroy packs and kill anyone who opposes my orders, be they women, children—I love no one but myself, and I... would never fall in love with a insignificant slave!" The words whipped out of my mouth like a lash, cutting through the air with cruelty. A deep, wild growl echoed through the room, causing my fur to bristle in pure fury.Without hesitation, I lunged at Katy with violence, grabbing her by the hair with brutality. My hands closed around her neck, squeezing tightly as I pressed her against the wall. My cold gaze met Katy's dark eyes; she coughed, gasping for air and pleading for me to release my grip on her throat."I'm going to teach you a lesson so you never dare defy me again!" I snarled impatiently, angrily tossing Katy's body to the ground, causing her to fall in shock. She crawled towards the door, trying to escape, but I grabbed her by the feet
POV Alpha Gideon"Don't talk nonsense, Katy! What are you implying with this? That I don't care about our daughter?" I growled impatiently, releasing Dr. Afonso, who slumped against the wall, coughing weakly and struggling to regain air in his lungs.Katy advanced towards me, her eyes flashing with anger. She gestured for the doctor to leave, leaving us alone in the room. I stared at her seriously, but she didn't seem intimidated by my presence."What are you doing here?" I asked sharply, turning my back to sit at the wooden desk. The air was tense, filled with the expectation of what would come next. With heavy breaths, Katy positioned herself in front of me once again, forcing me to meet her gaze. Her eyes overflowed with rage. Then, with a sharp gesture, she threw the papers onto the table, as if unloading all her accumulated frustration and hatred. Her face twisted in a mask of pain and resentment as she began to pace back and forth, trying to keep calm but failing miserably."Loo
POV Alpha Gideon."Eleanor is very ill!" The maid shouted, her voice filled with despair echoing down the palace hallway. "Get a doctor immediately!" she continued, grabbing a basin of water and placing it on Eleanor's forehead, which burned with fever.I heard the shrill cries as I made my way down the corridor towards Eleanor's room. Her faint scent hung in the air, as if death were near. I approached the bed where she lay, her face pale and lifeless, lips dry, and breathing shallow. Her normally vibrant, shining red hair had taken on a greenish hue, a sinister sign of the severity of her condition. The maids around her did everything in their power to try to revive her, but Eleanor didn't respond to any stimuli."Where is the doctor?" my voice sounded stern, making the people around me tremble in fear."Alpha... he's on his way... we've called him... but..." the girl swallowed nervously, hesitating as if afraid to tell me something."Speak! Or it will be worse for all of you!" I re
