Alaric's POV

...Cara was pregnant?!

With twins?!

Lilia's face is expressionless now, but I will never forget that little smile. The look of satisfaction on her face when she heard it was Cara who had been wounded in the accident. "LILIA!" Grey growls in my head. "She did this!! She is responsible!!"

She has hated Cara ever since the two first met. Lilia saw Cara as a rival, as an enemy.

How many nights did Lilia tell me to say how much I preferred her over Carà? Begging me to stroke her pathetic ego?

"I'm the best you've had, right?" Lilia had asked me with her big doe eyes one night after we'd had sex. "Better than everyone else? Better than her?"

She hadn't said Cara's name, but we both knew who Lilia had meant.

look of triumphant relief on her face was enough to show me I'd answered the question correctly.

I thought that would be the end of it, but Lilia asked me to compare her to Cara constantly. Big things, little things, it didn't matter. Lilia always needed reassurance that she had won this imaginary competition between her and Cara. figured it was normal she-wolf insecurity. I thought Lilia was just being territorial because she cared for me so much. Because she loved me.

Now I see how wrong I was.

Lilia didn't just t want to O win. She wanted Cara to lose.

How many wolves would have to die before Lilia would be satisfied?

At least two. Cara's babies...

I growl out loud and step closer to Lilia. She hunches her shoulders, making herself
