Chapter: Chapter 160DAMIENOn the second morning she wakes before me.I can hear her moving through the villa, then I hear the soft slide of the terrace doors, and then nothing but the sea. I lie there for a moment staring at the ceiling, my hand on the warm space where she was, and make a decision that I've technically already made but have been carrying around for three weeks like something fragile.I get up, and walk towards where she is.She's standing at the railing with coffee in her hands, her hair is loose, and she is also wearing one of my shirts with nothing else. The coast spread out below her in the early morning like a liquid gold, this looks something that shouldn't be real. She doesn't hear me come out. I watch her for a moment, enjoying the stillness that she gives off when she doesn't know she's being observed, when there's no crisis to manage or performance to give, it is like she's just herself inside her own skin.I've loved her longer than I've admitted it. Even to myself.I go bac

Chapter: Chapter 159ELARAI wrap my legs around his waist and pull him deeper. He shifts us so I’m straddling him, while still joined. Bracing my hands on his strong thighs, I start to ride him slowly, in deep rocks that let me take every inch of him. Each time I sink down, he fills me to the root. I lean forward, pressing my breasts to his chest, and suckle his nipple again, licking and tugging him while I grind on his cock.Damien’s hands roams my body. He cups my breasts, kneading the soft weight, and teaseing my nipples with feather-light circles before drawing one into his mouth. He sucks deeply, flicking his tongue, and grazing his teeth on my nipples, switching from one to the other until I’m gasping and trembling.The pleasure builds up slowly, and inevitably. My walls flutter harder around him in rhythmic pulses milking his length with every glide. His fingers slip between us to find my clit, rubbing it in slow, firm circles that match the rhythm of my hips.When I come it’s quiet and devastatin

Chapter: Chapter 158DAMIENI didn't tell her where we're going.She has asks twice in the car to the airport, but gets nothing both times, and eventually settles into her seat with an expression she wears when she's decided that demanding information is less interesting than waiting for it. Arms crossed, with one brow slightly elevated and the ghost of a smile she won't give me yet.I've learned to read her the way you learn a city...not from a map but from walking it until the streets make sense in your body.Hayes loads the bags and I hand her a glass of wine the moment we board and she looks at me."Are you bribing me?""I'm softening you.""For what?""The flight time."She takes the wine. "How long?""Long enough to finish that."She looks out the window at the tarmac sliding past and I watch her let it go....the question, the control, the constant low-level vigilance she's carried for months. By the time we're airborne she's asleep with her head against my shoulder, her wine half finished, and sho

Chapter: Chapter 157ELARAI recieved my mother's calls on Thursday evening, two hours after their therapy appointment.I'm at my desk working on the foundation proposal when the phone rings and I look at her name on the screen and let it ring twice before I answer. Not out of cruelty, just because I need the two seconds to decide who I'm going to be in this conversation."Mom.""Hi, sweetheart." Her voice is different. "We went to the therapist today.""How was it?"She pause. "Hard. It was hard." She exhales slowly. "She asked us to talk about patterns. In our family. How we responded to conflict, who we protected and who we expected to manage." There is another pause, longer. "Your name came up a great deal."I don't say anything."I want to see you," Mom says. "In person. Your father too. We're not asking for anything ...we're not asking you to forgive us or pretend or go back to the way things were. We just want to see you." Her voice tightens slightly, still she sounds like she controlled her emotio

Chapter: Chapter 156ELARAWe left the inn and got back to the penthouse just after midnight.Hayes drops us at the entrance, and take the car around, all of a sudden it's just the two of us in the elevator, our shoulders touching. The air is filled with silence, all through the drive I had shut my eyes pretending to rest, I simply don't know how to answer Damien's question both the one he asked and the one he hasn't asked. But here standing with him I can't keep runing away from it.The penthouse is exactly as we left it.I drop my bag by the door. Toe off my shoes and stand in the middle of the living room trying to breathe in fresh air and dispel my worries.Damien watches me from the entryway, still in his coat."Say it," I tell him."Say what?""Whatever you're holding back."He's quiet for a moment. Then: "I want to know how you are. Answer me truthfully, not the one you've been giving everyone else today."I consider lying. Not maliciously...just the reflexive self-sufficiency I've spent years perf

Chapter: Chapter 155ELARAMorrison's team moves on towards the house at 7:43 PM.It's quiet and coordinated and fast. Two officers to the back, two to the side, Morrison herself at the front door with her badge already out.She knocks."Elena Blake. This is Detective Sarah Morrison, NYPD. I have a warrant for your arrest. Please open the door."Silence.Then, from inside, I hear a laughter a sound I recognize even from twenty feet away.The door opens.Elena stands in the doorway looking like she's been expecting company for dinner. She's wearing jeans and a cream-colored sweater, her dark hair is loose around her shoulders, and she looks so much like me that the officers nearest to her visibly startle.She looks at Morrison. Then past her, scanning until she finds me in the shadows at the edge of the drive.And she smiles."You actually came," she says, and her voice carries perfectly in the quiet evening air. She sounds almost delighted. "I wasn't sure you would.""Elena Blake," Morrison begins, "you a

Chapter: Chapter 188Aeliana's POV My mother's hand found mine. I can see her mixture of relief and disappointment, relief that the traitors were dead, disappointment that they'd never face justice for their crimes. "So they're both gone," I said quietly. "The people who destroyed Silverwood, and caused us twenty years of torture...they're dead." "At the Council's hands, not ours," my father said bitterly. "They don't even have to answer for what they did." "They answered," Caelan said. "Just not to us. The Council executed them because they became liabilities. That's a kind of justice, even if it's not what we would have chosen." "It's not enough," my father argued. "It has to be enough," I said firmly, one hand on my growing belly. "Because the alternative is declaring war on the Council to avenge people who are already dead. And I'm not risking my child, this pack, or our future for vengeance against corpses." The room fell silent. My father looked like he wanted to argue, but slowly his express

Chapter: Chapter 187Aeliana's POV "The Advisory Council was made of twelve people," Brennan added. "We've eliminated eight through various means, we either verified they died in the attack, or confirmed they were targeted by the Council rather than working with them. That leaves four potential traitors." "Do you have names?" Caelan asked. "Two are dead—killed in unrelated incidents over the past twenty years. But two are still alive." Kira pulled out a worn piece of paper covered in notes. "Councilor Meredith Ashwood and Councilor Gareth Thornvale. Both survived the attack, and both disappeared afterward, and have been impossible to track despite our efforts." "You think one of them betrayed us and is now hiding from retribution?" I asked. "We think one of them betrayed us and is now working directly for the Council," Brennan corrected. "The patterns suggest ongoing collaboration, not just a one-time betrayal. Whoever sold out Silverwood twenty years ago is probably still feeding intelligence

Chapter: Chapter 186Aeliana's POVAt twelve weeks pregnant, my body finally started showing visible changes beyond the constant hunger and exhaustion.My stomach, which had remained stubbornly flat despite the baby's growth, developed a small but definite curve. Not obvious to strangers, but unmistakable to anyone who knew me well."You're showing," Jolene observed during my weekly check-up. "Finally. I was starting to worry the baby was somehow growing without physical manifestation.""Is that normal?" I asked, running my hand over the small bump. "To not show until twelve weeks?""For most werewolf pregnancies, showing starts around eight to ten weeks. But your case is unusual; the baby has been consuming so much energy that your body wasn't storing anything for visible growth. Now that the pregnancy is more established, your body is finally allowing physical changes." Jolene's magical scan hummed over my abdomen. "The baby is developing beautifully. Strong heartbeat, excellent growth rate, and the mag

Chapter: Chapter 185Caelan's POVThe king and queen were being greeted by pack members who'd heard the stories of their rescue and who wanted to meet the legendary monarchs. It was chaos, wonderful chaos, the kind that came from families reuniting and communities merging."Alpha," Marcus approached, his expression serious. "We need to discuss the integration plan for the Silverwood loyalists. Two hundred wolves is a significant addition, and we need a clear hierarchy, territory assignments, and resource allocation.""Tomorrow," I said firmly. "Tonight, we rest. We celebrate being home. We grieve the wolves we lost. Tomorrow we handle logistics."Marcus looked like he wanted to argue but nodded. "Understood. I'll have reports ready for you in the morning."As the evening progressed, pack members organized a welcome feast. Despite the losses we'd suffered, despite the uncertainty ahead, there was joy in this gathering. We'd survived. We'd won. We'd brought home wolves who'd been lost and built alliances t

Chapter: Chapter 184Caelan's POVThe convoy returning home was unlike anything I'd ever coordinated. Two hundred Silverwood loyalists, my pack members who'd fought in the battle, the King and Queen of Silverwood, various allied wolves who'd stayed to help, and one very pregnant, very hungry Luna who kept demanding stops for food."We've been traveling for two hours," I said as Aeliana requested the third rest stop. "We're not even halfway home yet.""The baby is hungry," she said, not even apologetic. "And when the baby is hungry, everyone suffers. Trust me, you want me fed and content, not starving and irritable."She had a point. I'd witnessed firsthand what happened when Aeliana's pregnancy hunger wasn't satisfied—she became snappish, unfocused, and genuinely distressed. It was easier to stop every hour and let her eat than to deal with the consequences."Fine. Everyone, we're taking another break. Fifteen minutes."The convoy pulled over, wolves stretching their legs and taking the opportunity to shi

Chapter: Chapter 183Aeliana's POV Afterward, lying tangled together as dawn light filtered through the windows, Caelan stroked my hair with gentle affection."Jolene said this would level off after the first trimester," he observed. "That's still six more weeks.""Can you handle six more weeks of this?" I asked, genuinely concerned. "I know I'm being demanding...""I love you," he interrupted. "And I love that you want me this much. Yes, it's intense. Yes, it can be exhausting. But I'm not complaining, Lia. This is us growing our family. Every symptom, every craving, every overwhelming need...it's all part of creating our child."I can feel his absolute sincerity. He wasn't just tolerating my pregnancy symptoms; he was embracing them as part of our journey together."I love you too," I said softly. "Even when I'm eating raw meat at four in the morning and demanding sex for the third time in twelve hours.""Especially then," he corrected with a smile.A knock on the door interrupted our moment.

Twisted Obsession: The Billionaires Virgin Bride
"Strip for me," he commanded, his ice-blue eyes devouring her. "Tonight, I take what's mine."
I thought I knew betrayal when I caught my fiancé's balls-deep in another woman.
I thought I'd hit rock bottom when that woman turned out to be my TWIN SISTER.
But the real knife in my back? He was her boyfriend first. For eight months, she fed him every secret about me—my fears, my dreams, my insecurities—so he could seduce me, make me fall in love, and destroy me when it hurt the most.
Why? Because she's always hated that I'm successful. That I'm respected. That people love me for who I am, not what I look like.
So there I was—promoted, engaged, happy—walking into my fiancé's apartment to celebrate... only to find him f*cking my sister against the wall while she smirked at me over his shoulder.
"Surprise, sister. He was always mine."
I should've gone home. I should've cried. Should've been the victim they wanted me to be.
Instead, I walked into the most exclusive bar in New York and caught the attention of the most dangerous man in the city.
Dante Ashford.
Billionaire. My ex-fiancé's boss. Sex personified. And currently getting pleasured by a beautiful blonde in the VIP lounge—while staring directly at ME.
He said my name while another woman's mouth was on him.
Then he dismissed her with one cold word: "Leave."
When I demanded to know how he knew who I was, he smiled like the devil making a deal.
"I know everything about you. Your cheating fiancé and backstabbing sister. I know exactly how to make them pay."
His offer was simple: Marry me. Destroy them. I'll give you power, wealth, and revenge.
My response shocked us both: "I'll marry you. But first... take my virginity. Tonight."

Chapter: Chapter 99ARIA - SIX WEEKS LATERThe video conference for Vivienne and Marcus's trial is set up in Dante's office.Morrison's face appears on screen, looking very professional and composed. "Mrs. Ashford, can you hear me clearly?""Yes, perfectly.""Good. The judge has approved your remote testimony given the circumstances. You'll be under oath, so everything you say is legally binding. Are you ready?"I look at Dante, who's standing just off-camera with our baby sleeping in his arms. He nods in encouragement."I'm ready."Morrison's image is replaced by the courtroom. I can see the judge, the jury, the prosecutor. And at the defense table...is Vivienne and Marcus, both in prison jumpsuits, both looking older and harder than I remember.Vivienne's eyes find the camera immediately. She starts to stand, but a guard pushes her back down."Mrs. Ashford," the prosecutor begins, "please state your relationship to the defendants.""Vivienne Sinclair is my twin sister. Marcus Kane is my former fiancé."

"How far apart are the contractions?""Maybe ten minutes? They started about an hour ago but I thought it was just Braxton Hicks." She winces. "Okay, that one was stronger."Dr. Mara arrives within twenty minutes, her team following with so many equipment. They've been on standby for weeks, ready for exactly this moment."Let's check your progress," Dr. Mara says calmly, helping Aria onto the bed we've converted into a delivery space.I hold Aria's hand while Dr. Mara examines her."You're at four centimeters," Dr. Mara announces.

I ask quietly."They're at the eastern perimeter fence. Katya has eyes on them from the roof, it is definitely Marcus and Vivienne. They're carrying something, that looks like bolt cutters and a bag." He shows me the thermal feed on his tablet, showing two heat signatures, moving slowly along the fence line. "They're looking for the weakest entry point.""Which doesn't exist. Every inch of this property is reinforced and monitored." I move to the window, staying back from the glass. "How long until Viktor's team arrives?""Ninety seconds.

Morrison shakes her head slightly...we're not supposed to speak to the press.But I need to say this. Need people to hear it."My sister Vivienne made choices," I say clearly. "She chose jealousy over love. She chose violence over family. She chose to try to kill me rather than accept that our lives went in different directions. Those were her choices, not mine. And now she's facing the consequences of those choices.""Do you forgive her?""No. And I don't plan to. Forgiveness is for people who are sorry for what they did, not people who are sorry they got caught." I meet the camera directly. "Vivienne isn't sorry she tried to hurt me.
