The hospital room d – flew open, slamming against the wall with a force that made the medical equipment rattle.

Alpha Gavin strode in, his powerful frame filling the doorway, eyes flashing with barely contained

fury.

“Leave us,” he commanded the hospital staff without even looking their way.

The nurses in the hallway scattered like frightened prey,.

Alpha Gavin’s normally handsome features were twisted into a mask of cold rage.

The events of the past twenty–four hours had pushed him to his limit.

Yesterday’s tedious pack meetings had already left him exhausted; then came the frantic call from Boulder police, forcing him to drop everything and race across state lines to bail out his mother.

But it was what he’d learned at the police station that truly shook him to his core.

“Murder?” The word had hung in the sterile air of the station like poison. “A body buried in an

orchard five years ago? My mother as an accomplice?”

Five years ago, he’d been studying international business at Oxford, building connections for the

Shadow Pack’s future.

Nobody had bothered to mention that his spoiled sister might have committed homicide.

He’d always known Cici was trouble–the baby of the family, indulged beyond reason.

Her obsession with Alpha Xavier, the Blood Moon Alpha, had driven her to increasingly desperate

acts.

But this? This crossed every line of pack law and human decency.

Now he stood beside her hospital bed, his anger rolling off him in waves.

“Tell me the truth,” he demanded, voice deceptively soft but carrying the unmistakable edge of an

Alpha’s command. “Is it true about the boy?”

The hospital room fell into suffocating silence.

Mrs. White couldn’t meet her son’s eyes, her normally imperious demeanor crumbling under his

scrutiny.

Cici made a dismissive sound, like this was all some minor inconvenience.

“I didn’t do it on purpose,” she muttered, examining her manicured nails. “It was an accident. If Mason had just listened to me instead of playing hard to get, none of this would have-”

The c***k of Alpha Gav.. palm connecting with her cheek echoed through the room like a

gunshot.

“MURDER,” he roared, “This isn’t some school yard bullying! You took a LIFE! A wolf’s life! Do you think this is some f*****g GAME?”

Cici’s eyes widened in shock as she touched her reddening cheek, tears welling instantly.

“Your entitled tantrums have brought our pack to the brink of war multiple times,” he continued, leaning closer. “We’ve cleaned up your messes, paid off your victims, and covered your tracks for years. But now you’ve dragged Mother into a murder investigation. Do you understand what that means? Accessories to murder face pack exile!

“You hit me,” Cici gasped, eyes wide. “My own brother.”

Alpha Gavin’s jaw clenched so tightly, it looked like his molars might shatter.

Mrs. White rushed in, draping herself around her daughter like a human PR shield.

“Hush, baby. Your brother didn’t mean it.” She turned to Alpha Gavin, voice sharp. “Don’t be so dramatic. I’ve already spoken to Detective Zack–he’s on our payroll. No body, no crime. Nicole’s testimony won’t hold. Detective Zack promised to delete the recordings. It’s handled.”

“You bribed the cops?” Alpha Gavin’s voice dropped, stunned.

This wasn’t just about Cici anymore. His mother had dragged their entire pack into a corruption

scandal.

Mrs. White smirked. “Zack’s reliable. He’s helped us before. He knows which side keeps his

mortgage paid.”

Cici sneered. “Let Cecilia try something. She and that lunatic she dragged in won’t make it ten feet

in court.”

Alpha Gavin saw the flicker of cruelty in Cici’s eyes and felt his stomach turn.

“Do you even know who posted bail for Cecilia?” he asked quietly.

“Alpha Sebastian Black,” he added. “He was at the precinct before the paperwork even printed. First stop? The Chief of Police’s office.”

Their faces drained of color.

“That’s impossible,” Mrs. White whispered. “He didn’t even file charges when Cici stabbed him. He didn’t even help that human draft her settlement. He clearly doesn’t give a damn about her.”

Alpha Gavin barked a humorless laugh.

“You think a man like ha Sebastian shows his cards before he flips the whole damn table?”

He stepped forward, voice cold and sharp.

“I told you–leave Cecilia alone. But no. You kept poking the bear. Now the bear’s awake… and

pissed.”

Cici crossed her arms, defiant. “So what? He rescues his little human pet? There’s no body

anymore. He’s got nothing.”

“Exactly,” Mrs. White echoed. “No body, no proof. We’ll be fine.”

Alpha Gavin leaned in. “Then tell me–where is the body? Who moved it?”

Silence.

Mrs. White shook her head. “Cecilia doesn’t know. She couldn’t.”

Alpha Gavin stared at them, disgusted.

“Really? You think someone just wandered in with a shovel and a death wish? You ever consider Alpha Sebastian might already have the remains? That his cozy little chat with the Chief wasn’t just catching up over coffee?”

The silence that followed wasn’t empty. With guilt. With panic.

Alpha Gavin dropped into a chair like the weight of his entire bloodline’s stupidity had finally broken

him.

His mother rushed over, clutching his sleeve like it was a life raft.

“Gavin, you have to help your sister! I spoke to your aunt from the Locke family–if you agree to her terms, she can make it all go away.”

Alpha Gavin scoffed, composure cracking.

“Her terms are insane. Neither I nor Xavier would ever sign off on that.”

“It’s just a business alliance,” his mother argued. “She said it would benefit both packs!”

“Mutually beneficial, my ass,” he snapped. “You have no idea what you’re asking. That woman’s a walking power grab. Everyone who gets in her orbit ends up scorched.”

He stood, pacing. “The Locke family is already eating itself from the inside. You want to hand her

the Shadow Pack too?”

This so–called alliance was just a trap–one that would pull them into the Locke family’s dirty politics until they were too compromised to claw their way out.

And he definitely was. iding with a woman whose power was as temporary as a summer storm.

His mother pressed on, voice tight. “You always assume the worst. She’s harsh, but she protects her own. Just do this–for your sister.”

“Don’t bother begging him!” Cici snapped, eyes blazing. “If he won’t help, Xavier will. He’s my mate

-he has to protect me!”

She snatched her phone, fingers trembling as she dialed.

Their mother panicked, grabbing the phone away. “No–don’t call him. He… he won’t come.”

Cici froze. “What are you talking about? I’m carrying his heir!”

Alpha Gavin didn’t flinch. “He’s already been there.”

Her voice cracked. “Then where is he?”
