Mated to My Fiancé’s Alpha King Brother

Seraphina’s POV T

The cold metal of the shackles bit into my wrists as they dragged me from the cell. My legs barely held my weight-the wolf poison still coursed through my veins like liquid fire, keeping Ayla buried somewhere deep

and unreachable.

“Move!” The guard’s boot connected with my lower back, sending me stumbling forward down the narrow

corridor.

Every step echoed off the concrete walls. The prisoners in the other cells pressed themselves against the

bars, watching with hollow eyes as I passed. They knew. They all knew where this led.

To the execution chamber.

My heart hammered against my ribs, but I forced myself to stand straighter. Whatever happened, I wouldn’t

give them the satisfaction of seeing me break.

The corridor opened into a larger room that stank of blood and death. Harsh fluorescent lights buzzed

overhead, casting sickly shadows across what looked like an abandoned warehouse. Metal chains hung from

the ceiling. Dark stains covered the concrete floor.

And there, waiting for me like a queen holding court, stood Valerie.

She’d cleaned herself up since our last encounter. Her golden hair was pulled back in a sleek ponytail, and she

wore fresh clothes-black jeans and a red silk blouse that probably cost more than most people made in a

month. But I could still see the faint bruises around her throat from where I’d tried to choke the life out of

her.

Not that I regretted it. Only that I’d failed.

Beside her, Voss lounged in what looked like a throne made from welded metal and animal pelts. The rogue

king was even more massive than I remembered, his scarred face split in a predatory grin as his cold eyes

took in my restrained form.

“Well, well,” Valerie purred, her voice dripping with false sweetness. “Look what the cat dragged in.”
