Fury Unleashed: The Awakening Alpha Nira (by Chloe Ramos) novel Chapter 208

Chapter 208 Christmas Invitation

Nira’s POV:

“Kade is the true–born heir of the Howell family, the rightful successor to the Alpha King’s throne. Everything he does is for the good of the Howell legacy and the future of the entire pack alliance.

“As for Colt, his ambition consumed him. He tried to kill Kade, crossing a line the Howell family could never tolerate. He brough fate upon himself.” Edith’s voice was like steel, each word dropping with cold finality.

She took a slow step forward, her wolf eyes–gleaming with a predatory light–swept over Mary. That gaze felt invasive, piercin right through her, and Mary visibly flinched, her pupils contracting in fear.

“If you still wish to be recognized as the Luna, you will conduct yourself accordingly,” Edith stated, driving the tip of her cane the floor with a solid thud. “Continue these hysterical displays and disruptions, and will have you removed from this house if it means disregarding Gideon’s memory.”

Mary’s face lost all its color, and a faint tremor ran through her body.

She Hkely never expected Edith to draw such an irrevocable line.

“Butler, escort the Luna back to her quarters,” Edith commanded, weary of the conflict. With a dismissive wave, she watched as Mary was led away.

I observed the resentment burning in Mary’s eyes and felt my own brow furrow.

It truly seemed as though she held no love for Kade, her own son.

Was it a situation similar to mine with the Soren family? Could Kade not be her biological child either?

The bold thought flickered through my mind but was quickly pushed aside as Edith’s concerned voice pulled me back to the

moment.

“Kade, this must be difficult for you,” Edith said softly, her eyes lingering on the red handprint marking Kade’s cheek.

Kade’s expression remained composed. “It’s alright, Grandmother.”

His gaze briefly dropped to meet mine, a silent look assuring me he was fine.

Edith followed his glance toward me, and her stern demeanor softened. “Ms. Soren, please accept my apologies by this unprensa scene. The Howell family’s affairs should not have intruded upon your visit”

I offered an understanding smile “Please don’t worry, Mrs Edith Howell it’s not a problem And you have my word that weat happened here today will go no further”

A hint of approval shone in 2dith’s eyes” “You are a perceptive young woman Ms Soren Kade is fortunate to have you at his vide “Grandmother, Nira has just arrived Let her get settled and rest Rade interjected gently before Edith could say more

“Ah, of course. Show Ms Soren to her room, Edith agreed, her tone warther now

She then turned to me “Ms Soren, I would enjoy your company when you have some few time”

After Edith departed, Kade led me upstairs. His voice was low, weighted with apology, “I’m sorry you had to witness all that…“”

i glanced at the mark on his face, and an unexpected pang of sympathy tightened in my chest. “You have nothing to apologize for

We stopped outside my assigned room. I turned and added, “Come inside. Let me put some ointment on that.”

Kade hesitated for a fraction of a second, then nodded and followed me in.

I retrieved the small tube of healing salve I always carried in my bag and gestured for him to sit on the sofa.

Kade’s POV:

Once I was seated, Nira stood before me. She gently squeezed a small amount of the salve onto her fingertip and carefully smoothed it over the inflamed mark on my cheek.

Her touch was light, her finger cool against my skin as the ointment spread, yet it seemed to ignite a slow heat beneath the surfac

leaned back slightly, studying her face–so serene it could have been carved from marble. Her lashes were lowered, casting delicate shadows beneath her eyes. Her nose had a soft, upturned curve, and her lips were pressed together in concentration.

Her breath brushed my cheek, carrying a faint, sweet scent. It was floral, subtle, and utterly hers. The urge to close the distance between us, to claim her mouth with mine, surged violently within me.

But Odin, my wolf, growled a warning in the depths of my mind. He/still struggled to accept that my fated mate carried no wo spirit of her own.

The air in the room grew thick. Time seemed to stretch and slow.

My heart hammered against my ribs, a traitorous rhythm I couldn’t control. The tension inside me coiled tighter, threatening to break free. My throat worked, and when I spoke, my voice came out rough, strained from the effort of restraint. “Nira

She felt it–the raw desire radiating from me. Her fingertip stilled for a heartbeat against my skin.

Then she withdrew her hand, her gaze lifting to meet mine with composed clarity. “Is something wrong”

Seeing that calm, almost detached expression, I opened my mouth. The words, the confessigp, the need, Clawed at my throat, desperate to escape But at the last moment, I forced them down

I stood up abruptly “Nothing You should get some rest”
