| stammered, “I don’t know what you're talking about.”

| watched as Kex dragged a chair over and sat down, his feet tapping against the floor. His eyes blazed with fury,

and | felt my palms grow sweaty.

“Look at me,” he commanded, his voice hard and unyielding.

He turned to Harry and said something | couldn’t hear. Harry took something from his pocket and handed it to

Kex. Kex turned back to me, his eyes blazing with rage. He flung the object at me, and | caught it in my hands,

It was my diary, and it was unlocked. | reached up to my neck, feeling for the chain that held the key. It was

My mind reeled as the memories flooded back. | had seen Nelly in my room, but | hadn't suspected anything.

Aisha’s words echoed in my head, “She’s drunk.”

“Speak up, or has the cat got your tongue?” Kex roared, his voice filled with fury.

“Kex....." | opened my mouth to speak, but he cutoff.

“It's Alpha Kex to you,” he snapped, his eyes blazing.

| was taken aback. | had never heard him so angry, so commanding. | was at a loss for words, unsure of what to

Kex raised his hand to his face, his fingers rubbing his temple. He seemed to be trying to keep his temper in

check.

“You're not my late beta’s sister,” he said, his voice low and dangerous.

| nodded, tears forming in my eyes. | had been so close to him. “I'm sorry,” | said, my voice quivering. “I didn’t

into mine.

just wanted to be close to you, to feel like | had a lover again. | swear, | didn’t do it,” He leaned forward, studying

my face intently.

“How did you know where to find my late beta?” Kex asked, his tone accusing. | took a deep breath, trying to

steady my nerves.

“I'm from the spack where the a

took place,” | said, my voice trembling. “I saw your beta trying to cross the border, and he was shot with an

arrow. | thought if | used him as an advantage, | could get close to the one person I've always loved.”

| looked up at Kex, searching his face for any sign of compassion. But all | saw was anger and mistrust.

“Did my beta ever tell you his last wish was forto be with his sister?” Kex asked, his voice low and

dangerous. | shook my head, unable to speak.

“The truth is, | found him dead,” | finally managed to say, my voice a mere whisper. “He didn’t know me. | only

knew about him going to meet her from his belongings.”

| looked at Kex, my eyes pleading with him to believe me. But the look on his face toldhe didn’t. He was

seething, his foot tapping impatiently.

“Please,” | said, my voice trembling.

He looked up at me, his eyes now red with anger. | swallowed hard, trying to keep my fear from showing.

“Where are his belongings?” he demanded.

| hesitated, my hands trembling in my lap. “I-I... | trailed off, unable to form the words.

“Answer me!” he barked, his voice echoing in the silence of the room.

| looked down at my hands, unable to meet his eyes. “I-I burnt them,” | whispered, my voice so faint it was

barely audible..

“You burnt what?” Aisha asked, her voice sharp.

Alpha Kex stood up abruptly, his chair falling over as he stormed out of the room. | looked up, my eyes pleading

for him to stay. But his gaze was fixed on Harry, his jaw clenched in fury.

“Lock her up,” he said, his voice harsh.

I sank to my knees, my tears flowing freely. “Please, Alpha,” | begged, my voice barely at whisper.

But my pleas were met with silence. He turned and left the room without a backward glance, | sank to the floor,

my body shaking with sobs.

As Harry moved towards me, | begged, “Please help me. | love him, | swear | didn’t kill his beta. Please!” Yet

Harry didn’t say a word. He simply grabbedby the arm and began to dragaway. | struggled, my voice

rising in panic, “No, please, stop!”

Nelly’s voice rang out like a gunshot in the silence, “Stop!”

Harry froze, his grip on my arm loosening. I looked up at him, my heart pounding in my chest. What would
