Charles’ POV

The engine hummed-the only sound in the car. Aubrey sat beside me, silent and sharp like an unsheathed blade.
The cold edge she gave off had my wolf, Vik, growling uneasily in the back of my mind. “She smells like
vengeance. She's dangerous.”
| didn’t need him to tellthat. | could feel it too. But | didn’t understand-what exactly had happened? Who
was she after? Aurelia? Bailey? But what could they have done to provoke something this deep?
“We're here.”
| hadn't realized how long we’d been driving until she suddenly spoke.
Outside the window was a wide pond filled with lotus blossoms, their scent carried by the breeze. Just beyond it
stood a beautiful villa-clearly expensive.
Aubrey toldto park a little farther out, then ledtoward the house.
“You may be a rich kid, but you learned your training at the werewolf police academy, right?” she asked.
| nodded. “Of course. | graduated top of my class.”
“Excellent.” She gave a faint smile-and my heart skipped a beat. | quickly looked away, avoiding her eyes.
She didn’t takestraight to the house. Instead, she broughtto a tree near the villa.
“See that alarm system? Disable it.”

wild, wicked curve to her lips, my hands moved on their own. | was already pulling wires from the security box.
“This place belong to your family?”
| was worried she’d draggedto break into someone else’s house again.
“Technically, it’s Aurelia’s private property,” she answered smoothly.
| paused-then silently went back to dismantling the alarm. No point backing out now. | was already on the thief’s
boat, might as well sail it. And to be honest... | was curious. What exactly was she trying to show me?
| had to admit, there was something thrilling about doing something illegal-especially with Aubrey by my side. |
glanced at her again... only to find her staring at the villa with eyes full of burning hatred.
| froze. My hands stopped moving. Aubrey turned sharply. “Hurry up.”
“O-Okay.” | nodded reflexively. It wasn’t until later that | realized-I didn’t even think about saying no to her. She
was just an Omega. Why did I, a Beta, obey her so naturally? | didn’t understand it. | didn’t question it either.
Aubrey ledthrough one system after another. | was stunned. This place wasn’t that big, but it had five hidden
alarm units-and Aubrey knew where every single one was.
When we were done, she crouched by the front door and picked the lock. Her movements were light, fluid,

and warm. | was totally distracted... until | heard that sound.
| stopped in my tracks.
No way... That voice-it was my aunt.
She was... having an affair?
| glanced at Aubrey, but she wasn’t surprised at all. She’d known. In the middle of my shock, she suddenly
picked up a small stone-and hurled it down the stairs.
Crash! The sound of shattering porcelain echoed. A blue vase downstairs had broken to pieces.
“Who's there?!” Aurelia’s panicked voice rang out from the bedroom. | had no choice but to yank Aubrey behind
the corner with me.
Sure enough, Aurelia and a man crushing down to investigate. The second they were gone, Aubrey pulled

How did she even know the bedskirt draped low enough to hide us? Wait-why are we even hiding here?!
Before | could say a word, footsteps returned. Aurelia’s flirtatious voice drifted back in. “Relax, it must've been a
stray cat. This place is locked up tight-no one’s getting in.”
The man said, “Still... | don’t know. Maybe we should go.”
