Chapter 267

Third Person’s POV

Finished.

The moment Samantha locked eyes with Isaiah, her spine went rigid. It was the biological survival instinct of a low–tier wolf facing a pureblood.

“Alpha Isaiah,” she managed, forcing a small, submissive smile.

Isaiah glanced at the flashy bouquet in her hands, his voice lazy and bored. “Trista’s busy. If you’ve got. some shady business to handle, just talk to me.”

Samantha gripped the flower wrapping, her face heating up. “Alpha Isaiah… I’m just here to apologize.”

Isaiah reached into the cluster of expensive hydrangeas and precisely plucked out a few stems of dark purple flowers.

He crushed a petal between his fingertips. “Are you here to make peace, or are you here to commit a murder?”

Samantha stared at the purple monkshood, her pupils shrinking in panic.

To humans, it was just a decorative flower, but to a werewolf, its scent paralyzed the senses, and its pollen was lethal.

She had planned to use the bouquet to make Trista violently ill, but she hadn’t expected this Alpha’s senses to be so terrifyingly sharp.

“The florist must have made a mistake…” Samantha stammered, her voice barely a whisper as she tried to cover up her attempt on Trista’s life.

Isaiah pressed the thorny stem against her lips, a wicked grin spreading across his face. “Swallow it. Do it, and for Cassian’s sake, I might let you live through the night.”

By the time Trista walked out of her clinic, the hallway was empty.

Zelda hurried over and whispered the details.

Trista’s brow furrowed, a flicker of worry in her eyes.

Isaiah was a loose cannon; when he went off the rails, he had no bottom line.

She appreciated his protective streak, but she didn’t want him turning this into an international inc

She went back to her office and pinged Isaiah’s comm–stone.

On the other end, she heard the deafening roar of rollercoasters and carnival machinery.

“That rogue?” Isaiah’s voice was casual. “I don’t have time for her. I’m just taking her out for some ‘thrills.“”

After hanging up, Isaiah looked up at the sky, where Samantha was screaming her lungs out mid–air. He picked at his ear, looking annoyed.

“When she gets down, take her to the vertical drop. Then the bungee jump and the zipline. Keep her on every ride until she’s literally out of breath,” he told his men.

A few hours later, an ambulance shrieked to a halt at the ER entrance.

Samantha was practically catatonic when they hauled her off the stretcher.

Cassian, who had just arrived at the healing center to find Trista, ran right into the chaos.

Samantha caught his scent in the crowd and let out a desperate, raspy cry for help.

“Are you family?” a paramedic asked, grabbing Cassian’s arm.

Before Cassian could even open his mouth, Zelda shouted from nearby, “Of course he’s family! He’s the father of her child!”

The medical staff’s expressions turned judgmental, and they shifted to block Cassian’s path, essentially forcing him to follow the gurney.

Inside the room, Samantha was a mess of bruises and scrapes. Her face was battered, and her voice was so shot she could only manage broken syllables.

Cassian stood by the bed, his brow knitted into a tight knot. “How the hell did you end up like this?”

me…

Samantha reached out with a trembling hand, clutching his sleeve. “Cassian… Isaiah… he tried to kill me..

“Hey! Talk about ungrateful!”

The door swung open, and Isaiah’s head–lavender hair and all–poked in. He leaned against the frame, arms crossed, looking perfectly innocent.

“I spent all day playing with you, and you say I tried to kill you?”

The second Samantha saw him, she scrambled under the covers, shaking like a leaf in a hurricane.

Cassian turned around, his voice low. “What are you doing here?”

“Just checking to see if she’s still breathing,” Isaiah said bluntly.

Cassian stepped back and pushed the door open, signaling Isaiah to come inside.

“Did you do this?”

A flash of lethal, predatory rage flickered in Isaiah’s eyes. The temperature in the room plummeted as he released his full aura.

“She tried to give Trista wolfsbane. She wanted to fry Trista’s scent glands, Cassian, the only reason I didn’t rip her throat out is because I was trying to show you a little respect.”

With that, Isaiah sauntered out, leaving a trail of arrogant laughter behind him.

Cassian shut the door in silence. When he turned back to Samantha, his gaze held a new, icy level of

scrutiny,

He stood there like a stone statue, radiating a dead silence that made her skin crawl.

“Cassian… let me explain,” she croaked.

Cassian nodded slowly, his calm voice more terrifying than a shout. “Go ahead. I’m listening?

Seeing that he hadn’t exploded yet, Samantha ignored her aching body and struggled to sit up.

“I sent you so many SOS signals yesterday, and you didn’t even answer!”

Finished

She started to tear up, her voice full of “wronged” entitlement. “Do you have any idea how everyone at this healing center is looking at me and my mother right now?”
