Chapter: Chapter 85Chapter 85: Unexpected Guardians LUMINAMy phone buzzed just as I was settling into the uncomfortable hospital chair beside Ollie's bed. The caller ID made my heart skip a beat as I felt a little bit of panic rushing in – it was Zade. I quickly glanced around the room, making sure Xenois was still distracted by his conversation that he had going with Thorne in the hallway, before stepping out to take the call."Zade," I answered quietly, heading towards the ending place of the corridor where I could speak more privately and not worry about being overheard by anyone."Lumina," he spoke sounding relieved as he continued speaking. "I got your message about the boys being in the hospital. Are you alright? Is Ollie okay?""We're fine," I said, though my voice shook a bit from the residual fear that I had left in me. When I first got the call, I thought it was Ollie that was the one unconscious and I had broken a lot of traffic rules getting here, remembering the fact that Ollie had died

Chapter: Chapter 84Chapter 84: The Impossible TruthXENOIS The door burst open like someone had forced their way in, and my mate rushed in, her face flushed red from running and her eyes were filled with panic. She looked between me and Dr. Martinez, taking in our serious expressions and the papers scattered across the desk."Is Ollie okay?" she asked breathlessly as she held her laps to gain back her breath as she went on speaking. "I got a call saying there was an accident, that he was hurt—""Ollie is fine," Dr. Martinez said quickly, gathering up the lab reports and sliding them back into the file, hiding it from her view. "He has some minor injuries, but nothing serious that you need to be beside yourself with worry about. He's going to be perfectly fine."I watched as Lumina's shoulder sagged, her face filled with relief as the fear left her body. She hadn't even acknowledged the fact that I was here as well.She hadn't looked at me directly since entering the room. The distance between us felt

Chapter: Chapter 83Chapter 83: The Genetic Mistake XENOISDr. Martinez's office felt smaller than usual as I settled into the chair that was placed in front of her desk.I was still going through some pretty big emotions that happened just minutes ago. Sophia attacking my son, my own violent reaction to her, something that I had never done before was guilting me. But the doctor's expression told me that whatever she was about to tell me was only going to make things worse from here on now. She had the look, that doctors give relatives when their loved ones had no chance of getting better. Whatever it is that she was going to tell me, it was big."What's the issue?" I asked, trying to keep my voice steady despite the different mix of emotions that was going through me.Dr. Martinez pulled out a file from her drawers and placed it on her desk between us. Her fingers drummed nervously against the folder, and I could see the conflict in her expression, it was the struggle between professional conduct and

Chapter: Chapter 82Chapter 82: Parental Instincts XENOISThorne was already on his feet, his earlier anger forgotten in the face of a crisis that involved children. "I'm coming with you.""Fine," I said, not bothering to argue with him. Thorne was almost as stubborn as me, besides I was going to need his car to get there and finally send someone to get my car from the school. But right now, all I cared about was getting to my son.The drive to the hospital seemed to pass so quickly as my mind was filled with worried thoughts as I sat in the passenger seat. What if Ollie was seriously hurt? What if Riley was even worse off than Mrs. Henderson had told me? What if this was somehow my fault, had the children seen what happened and gotten into a fight about it as well. Or was this the work of a bully? But who? Ollie was well liked by his classmates and Riley was just on his first day here.We were directed to the pediatric ward when we arrived, and I felt my heart racing as we made our way through the whit

It has been six hours since Thorne had dragged me out of the school parking lot like I was some delinquent teenager that was caught breaking the laws, and he still wasn't speaking to me. Well not directly, anyway. Instead, he was using my own PA as a messenger, which was possibly the most humiliating thing that had ever happened to me as an Alpha."Margo," Thorne said from where he was seated on a separate table and chair in my office, keeping his voice neutral as he continued, "please tell Alpha Xenois that his behavior today was not only unprofessional but a direct violation of his mate's bond."Margo, who had been my personal assistant for three years and Lumina's friend for even longer, turned to me with disgust on her face that she barely tried to hide. Margo had hated Sophia since the day I went to the airport to get her and she had kept her opinions honest despite the fact that she could lose her job here. "Alpha Xen

Chapter: Chapter 80Chapter 80: The Twin's AccidentI followed him into the break room, carrying my lunch bag in hand. He was sitting at one of the small tables, staring at his bag with an expression I'd never seen on his face before, it looked like hunger filled with shame."Riley?" I said softly, not wanting to startle him since he seemed to be out of it. "Are you okay?"He looked up at me, and for a moment, his mask fell off. I saw tears that were gathering at the corners of his eyes, and I saw his hands clench into fists as he tried to control his emotions."I'm fine," he said, but his voice broke on the words."Do you... do you not have lunch?" I asked gently, wondering why Sophia would forget to feed her child. Didn't she know to give him lunch. "Because I have extra. Mama always packs too much food, and—""I said I'm fine," Riley snapped, hitting his hand on the desk, but I could see him swallow hard, could see the way his stomach chose that moment to growl loudly.I reached into my lunch bag and

Chapter: Chapter 30Chapter 30: Under FireSORENTroy had his tablet out and was typing frantically on the keypad as he was texting someone. I looked at the screen and saw he was sending another message to Dad: They're here. The men from the car. They're looking for us. We're hiding under the table.My heart was pounding so hard I was sure everyone in the restaurant could hear it. But I kept on a neutral face, because I didn't want to scare my siblings yet.Where was Mom? Why hasn't she come back yet?That's when I heard the first gunshot.The sound was so loud, and it was so unexpected, that for a moment I couldn't understand what it was. Then the front windows of the restaurant shattered as, glass were raining down like confetti, and people started screaming, and running away."Get down!" I shouted, throwing myself over Lake as more shots could be heard repeatedly. The sound was loud enough to deafen someone, and I could hear people crying and shouting, chairs being dragged on the ground as everyone tr

Chapter: Chapter 29Chapter 29: Triplets Intuition SORENThe car ride home from school today felt very different than usual. Mom was very quiet today, and it wasn't the comfortable kind of quiet we sometimes had when we were all thinking about our own things and didn't need to talk about anything in particular, but the kind that made the air feel heavy. I kept glancing at her in the rearview mirror, trying to figure out what was wrong because Mom wasn't happy at all with Dad today and Dad looked confused as well which meant that he has no idea what made Mom mad .Lake and Troy were obviously thinking the same thing because they were both typing furiously on their tablets, it was a way of having conversations without being overheard by our mum especially when it was about things that we didn't want her to know.I pulled mine out and opened our private group chat that we'd set up last year when we realized that sometimes we needed to talk about grown-up things without the grown-ups hearing.Troy: Mom's

Chapter: Chapter 28Chapter 28: Guilty Conscience XENOISThere was something in her tone that made me worried and look at her a little more carefully.. since I woke up with amnesia, she had always been in touching distance with me, or hold onto me but right now she was acting strangely. She seemed eager to get away from me, to put distance between us, and I couldn't understand why."Mrs. Kingston," Principal Morrison called after her, "the forms are at the main office reception desk."She nodded without looking back, leaving me alone with the boys and a realization that something bad had happened somewhere and I had no idea what it was."Daddy," Lake said quietly, "is Mommy mad at us?""What makes you think that, son?""She's been really quiet since she got here. Usually when one of us gets hurt, she fusses over us more."Wow, such honesty out of the mouths of babies Even our five-year-old could sense that something was off with Celeste's behavior."She's probably just worried about Soren," I said, thou

Chapter: Chapter 27Chapter 27: A Soren Emergency XENOISThe drive to the boys Academy felt longer than it should have, my mind was caught up between Thomas's confessions and whatever emergency that has happened for the school to call me. The fact that they'd insisted I come immediately rather than explaining over the phone had me on high alert as I tried to get there without causing an accident.Whitmore Academy was the kind of institution that was actually built for special kinds of children – those whose intellectual capabilities were far greater than normal compared to their peers. The huge academy, that was built on 15 plots of land with enough spaces to build any facilities needed for their school growth and a flexible individual timetable to match. It was exactly the kind of place I wanted my sons to attend, where their gifts would be nurtured rather than stifled.I pulled into the visitor parking area and immediately saw my wife's silver Mercedes already there. I felt relief as the tension th

Chapter: Chapter 26Chapter 26: SentimentsXENOIS"I got the car to the place he told me to, left it there, and took the bus home. He said someone would contact me about payment, when the time was right but nobody ever did. Then I started seeing news reports about your condition, and I realized I'd screwed up badly.""Has anyone tried to contact you since then?""No. I've been waiting for someone to come finish the job on me, but nothing. It's like I don't exist anymore."I looked at Sloane, who had been taking notes throughout the conversation, jotting down things that were important but I could also see the question that was apparent on his face even though he didn't voice it out. The fact that Thomas hadn't been contacted at all since the accident was interesting and a little bit mysterious in its way.Either his client had written him off as a failure when they saw the news and decided to cut him loose, or they were waiting to see how it would go from here."Thomas," I said, "I need you to think care

Chapter: Chapter 25Chapter 25: Prime Suspect XENOISThe safehouse was exactly the kind of place that didn't exist officially - it was a warehouse found near an abandoned industrial site, where the sound of traffic from the nearby highway would cover any peculiar sounds that would come from inside the warehouse. I'd used locations like this dozens of times over the years, though I couldn't remember exactly what I had used for them, for at the moment.Sloane, one of my private assistant and assassin when the time came, was waiting for me in the main room, he had a serious expression on his face as he led me toward a closed door."He's been cooperative," Sloane said without wasting time, going straight to the point as he continued speaking. "The kid is more cooperative than I expected, actually, which means that the kid is scared out of his mind."Kid. The word registered oddly in my brain as I narrowed my eyes, and I found myself frowning. "How young are we talking?""You'll see."Sloane led me thro
