Alpha Apollo’s POVI woke up in my bed, groaning as I sat up, feeling the throbbing in my head. I had been up all-night partying and smoking, and now I was paying the price. Glancing to my side, I saw a woman lying next to me, one of the slaves my father had given me. Surprisingly, my wolf didn't stir with the usual desire to kill her. I sighed, realizing I wasn't in the mood for this.I gently stroked my forehead, trying to ease the pounding headache. "Hey, you," I muttered, tapping the woman on her bare butt. "Time to go."She looked up at me, a hint of a smile on her face. "Good morning, Alpha," she greeted politely.I grunted in response, not in the mood for small talk. "Just leave," I snapped, my voice rough with irritation. She gathered her clothes and hurriedly left the room.With a sigh of relief, I made my way to the bathroom.

Alpha Ryder’s POV In the morning, I found myself in the sugar factory of my pack, observing the employees diligently carrying out their tasks. It was essential to ensure that everything ran smoothly, that the workers were doing their jobs efficiently. The familiar scent of molasses filled the air, mingling with the rhythmic sounds of machinery in motion.Just as I was about to check on a particularly intricate process, Carter approached me in the factory. His presence interrupted my focus, but I welcomed the distraction, hoping he had news about Zelda."Alpha Ryder," Carter greeted respectfully, his expression a mix of concern and determination. "Have you found anything about Zelda?"I sighed, my heart heavy with worry. "I've searched online, and we've sent search parties around the pack. But so far, no one has found her. She's not in our pack."Restlessness gnawed at my soul, preventing me from finding solace until I knew Zelda was safe. I ran a hand through my hair, feeling the wei
Zelda’s POV I carefully bathed August, in the warm embrace of the bathroom. Water droplets dropped down his tiny body as he kicked his feet, filling the room with his playful giggles. A tender smile graced my lips, momentarily pushing aside the worries that plagued my mind. August's blue eyes reminded me of Apollo. The man I believed had manipulated the DNA results just to continue his reckless ways. But in this intimate moment, it was just me and my sweet boy, finding comfort in each other's presence.A knock on the main door shattered the peacefulness of the night, jolting me from my thoughts.Startled, I scooped up August, his cries blending with the racing beat of my heart.

Alpha Apollo’s POVI was sitting in my father's office, surrounded by a mountain of paperwork that seemed never-ending. It was my first day as the alpha, and I felt the weight of responsibility heavy on my shoulders. Seth stood by my side, explaining the pack's budget and discussing the necessary steps to ensure the well-being of our pack members.I rubbed my temples, feeling the exhaustion seep into my bones. The maids came in, one after another, offering me coffee and food to keep me going. I appreciated their efforts, but I was too focused on the paperwork to pay much attention.Amidst the organized chaos, a familiar voice broke through the background noise. I glanced up, irritation tugging at the corners of my lips, as a woman stepped into the office. She clutched a cup of coffee in her hands, waiting for my permission.Without sparing her a glance, I dismissed her curtly. "Just leave it on the desk and go," I said, assuming it was one of the maids. But then she said those words t
Alpha Ryder’s POVAlpha Apollo left the packhouse with his beta, and I couldn't shake the worry that creased my forehead. The sight of the pack members, their tears flowing freely, tugged at my heart. I needed to comfort them, assure them that I would do whatever it took to find their missing daughters and sisters. But their voices were filled with doubt, and it seemed as though hope was slipping through their fingers.One woman's voice rose above the others, her despair evident. "Alpha Ryder, you won't find them. They're gone forever."Her words pierced my heart, but I couldn't let despair consume me. I had to act, to instill hope in their shattered souls. I turned to Carter. "Bring a pen and paper," I ordered. Carter swiftly retrieved the pen and paper.With a voice filled with compassion, I urged, "Please, write down the names and descriptions of your missing loved ones.""Please, trust me," I implored, my tone steady but filled with empathy.

Tracy’s POV I fidgeted uncomfortably in the cold examination room, my gaze fixed on the pack doctor as he scrutinized my vagina, with a speculum inside, and my legs wide open like a Thanksgiving turkey. Alpha Nathan's orders for this examination had me on edge, and the doctor's invasive questions only heightened my unease. "When was your last period?" the doctor inquired, his tone clinical, moving the speculum in my pussy. "Um...about a month ago." I replied reluctantly. "Why do you ask?" He pulled out the instrument from my pussy and rested it on the counter. Then he flipped up my skirt to check my ass. He lifted my buttocks into the air and probed my anus, probing around until he found what he was looking for. "You don't have any STDs or infections," he announced. My heart skipped a beat at his news. The doctor finally removed the speculum and wiped my vagina, using a towel that was already soaked with blood. After dabbing away the excess blood, he put the speculum back inside
Zelda’s POV I sat on the cold dungeon floor, my hands trembling as I devoured the food in front of me. It was a stark reminder of my hunger, a hunger that had gnawed at me for days. The guards had treated me with cruelty and disdain, denying me even the basic food needed to survive. But now, as I ate with desperation, my mind focused on Tracy's words. Tears streamed down my face as Tracy revealed the painful truth. Alpha Nathan had sold my precious son. The weight of that realization crashed down upon me, crushing my heart in its grip. How could he? How could he rip my child away from me? Tracy's bravery in standing up to him only intensified my sorrow and gratitude.

Zelda’s POV I darted through the thick underbrush, my heart pounding in my chest. The moon cast an ethereal glow, guiding my steps as I desperately tried to put distance between myself and Alpha Nathan's men. Fear pulsed through my veins, urging me to run faster, but my body refused to obey. Lexa was a weak and unresponsive wolf, and a constant reminder of my vulnerability. I cursed my status as an omega, wishing I could shift and escape this nightmare. Branches scraped against my skin, leaving trails of stinging pain, but I pushed forward, driven by an instinct to survive. The guards closed in on me, their heavy footsteps growing louder with each passing moment. Panic threatened to overwhelm me, but I fought against it, determined to find a way out.

I sprinted toward the opening, fueled by a surge of adrenaline. Bu
