Hiding His Alpha Twins novel Chapter 36

Lochlan’s POV

I stare at the grimy walls of my prison, feeling an overwhelming sense of despair. It's as if I've been trapped in this wretched place for an eternity. I yearn for freedom, a chance to escape these confines that have become my home. With each passing day, my strength wanes, and I become sure I'll be left to die here, forgotten and alone.

Thoughts of Catarina and the twins fill my mind, and I can't help but wonder what's happening back there. Are they ok? Are they happy? Do they even know I exist?

King Alex had made it clear that Catarina did not want me. He made it clear that she was his.

My thoughts went to my pack, and I wondered what could happen there.

Tara, always the seductress, must be trying to manipulate my Beta in my absence. The mere thought of it fuels my frustration and anger. How could they not come to rescue me? Have they abandoned me completely?

Questions linger in my mind, tormenting me with their lack of answers. Has my pack forgotten about me? Do they no longer care? The thought of their loyalty wavering is a heavy weight on my heart. I yearn for their support, for the reassurance that they're searching for me tirelessly. The flicker of hope within me dims, threatening to fade away completely. Lost and alone, I find solace only in the memories of my pack, the longing to be reunited with them growing stronger with every passing day.

But even in this darkness, a fire is ignited deep within me. I refuse to succumb to the desolation that surrounds me. I won't allow myself to be forgotten or left behind. Determination takes hold, and I promise to find a way to escape, be with my pack once again, and face whatever challenges await.

No matter how slim the chances are, I am resolved to seize any opening. The ember within me, once dwindling, now burns bright. Driven by my longing for freedom and unwavering devotion to my pack, I am determined to break free.

Each passing day is a preparation, mentally and physically, for the challenges that lie ahead. I sharpen my instincts and hone my senses, channelling the frustration and anger into fuel that propels me forward. This prison will not break me. I will emerge stronger, ready to confront any obstacle that stands in my way.

As the days blur together, I hold onto the vision of the future I crave. I can almost taste the freedom that awaits me, the joyous reunion with my pack, and the actions I will take to restore balance and protect the ones I hold dear.

In my heart, the flame of hope burns brighter than ever before, guiding me through the darkest of times. No matter how long it takes or how arduous the journey, I will find my way back to my pack. Their love, loyalty, and unbreakable bond will be my guiding light, leading me out of this pit of despair and into a future where I can stand again with my pack, united in strength and purpose.

The sound of heavy footsteps wakes me from my sleep, and I remain still, wondering will those footsteps be for me. To free me? To kill me?

King Alex stands before me with two of his guards on either side of him.

"I have one question for you, Alpha Lochlan," he says.

I stare back at King Alex, my heart pounding as I prepare myself for whatever question he's about to ask. Despite my desperate desire for freedom, a sense of trepidation washes over me. Will my answer determine my fate?

I can see the surprise in his eyes, his confident smirk faltering for a moment. But he quickly regains his composure, his expression once again guarded. "Is that a threat, Lochlan? Do you truly believe your pack has the power to challenge me?"

"It is not a threat, but a promise," I respond firmly. "My pack is bound by loyalty, unity, and an unbreakable bond. We have faced countless trials and triumphs together, and we will stop at nothing to protect our own. As their Alpha, it is my duty to ensure their safety, and I will not falter in that responsibility."

King Alex's smirk returns, a glimmer of amusement in his eyes. "Bold words, Alpha Lochlan," he says with a hint of admiration. "But words alone do not guarantee victory. I honestly would not put the word loyal into the same sentence as your name."

I clench my fists, feeling the fire of determination burn within me. King Alex may think he has the upper hand, but he underestimates the strength of the bond within my pack. I will not rest until I am free, until I stand beside them again, united in purpose and ready to face whatever comes our way.

"I am sure they couldn't care less for an alpha that cheats on their Luna and a slut who falls pregnant with a cheating alpha. Otherwise, please explain why your filthy she Wolf mistress turned up on my doorstep."

"What? Tara is here?"

"Like I said, Lochlan. Your pack can be destroyed easily."

With that, he turns and leaves the room, his guards following suit. Left alone once again, a mix of anticipation and anxiety consumed me.
