Chapter 40

RAINA’S POV

In the shadowy corners of my clandestine world, I meticulously crafted a plan to eliminate Donnie, a formidable threat to my ambitions of getting Alpha Carlyle of the Moon Shade Pack for myself. The air was thick with tension as I dispatched a group of skilled assassins after buying their loyalty with promises of power and wealth.

Days passed, each one a torturous wait for the anticipated news that would signal the success of my covert operation. Yet, an cerie silence enveloped the situation, as if the very walls were withholding the secrets of the unfolding drama.

The weight of uncertainty bore down on me, threatening to expose the vulnerabilities I had worked so hard to conceal.

“Let’s go,” I said to my maid who stood up immediately, to obey my command.

Within the confines of my brother’s chamber, an unsettling air of tension awaited me. His countenance betrayed an anger that simmered beneath the surface, and my attempt at levity merely brushed the edge of his discontent.

“Hey, bro. I was told you missed me.” I said to him as he flashed me a smile.

“Of course, I do.”

“It’s such a pleasure, bro.” I said.

“Shut it this instant!” He yelled at me making me flinch. The laughter that briefly
