Chapter: Chapter 146Nicole pov "I thought so," she nodded, satisfied. "It feels like the sad feelings that come through the glass.""Can you tell me if it gets closer?" I asked."I'll try," she whispered."That's all I need." I pulled her into a hug, and Maple immediately climbed over, burying his face into my shoulder."Mama," Maple muttered against my neck."Yes, sweetie?""When will the tall man come again?"I chuckled softly, rubbing his back. "Maple, love, I can't say for sure. He has a lot of work to do tonight."Maple pouted, his small bottom lip sticking out in the dim light. "I miss him.""Maple, stop being a baby," Rosy said. "Sometimes you act like a total baby.""I am not a baby!" Maple snapped, his little shoulders tensing as he got angry.“You are," Rosy teased, shifting her weight."I am not a baby!"I smiled, pulling them both slightly closer to stop the brewing fight. "Enough, guys. Guess what?"They both went completely still, looking up at me. "Mummy, what?""The tall man is on his wa

Chapter: Chapter 145Nicole's POVIt was Thursday evening, two days before the alliance ruling. I was sitting on the floor of the twins' room, helping Maple sort a collection of interesting stones he had been accumulating since."Look at this one, Mama," Maple said, holding up a grey pebble. "It has two faces. One is smooth like ice, and one is scratchy like a cat tongue.""It really does," I said, turning it over in my fingers. "Where did you find it?""By the big water pipe," he said, taking it back. "And this one is my favorite because it fits right inside my hand. See? It hides when I close my fingers." He squeezed his fist shut, then opened it with a wide smile. "And this blue one is from Rosy.""Rosy gave you this?" I asked, looking over at her."Yes," Rosy said from her bed a few feet away. She was holding an animal book Amber had brought her last month, turning the pages with careful attention. "I found it by the flowers where the big books are. It looked lonely.""Stones don't get lonely, Rosy,"

Chapter: Chapter 144Tate pov "Yes," I said. "She is."I watched him carefully while he spoke, waiting to see a brief flash of hesitation on his face. I wanted to see if his loyalty to her or his fear of me would win out. Instead, he kept his face completely blank."Farro's question rattled her," Jonathan said, leaning against the table. "There was a pause before she answered. That wasn't just pacing.""I noticed," I said. "You noticed it too. Does that surprise you, Jonathan? Or were you hoping she would have a better answer?"Jonathan froze, his thumb stopping on the edge of the papers. "No, sir. I want this finished just as much as you do.""Do you?" I stepped closer, watching him line up the edges of the folder with his usual neat, careful habits. "Because you used to line up those files for me out of pride. Now you do it because you are terrified of what happens if you miss a page."Jonathan looked up at me, his face pale. "I am doing exactly what you asked me to do, Tate. I haven't hidden anything

Chapter: Chapter 143Nicole pov "The elders care about the rules," Amber interjected, her voice steady. "And the rules say she can't use facility overrides to bring unauthorized people inside. When they see the data in the folder, they won't protect her anymore."I looked down at my coffee and let that land for a second. "Thank you," I said. "For staying.""I'll stay tonight too if you want," she said. "I've slept on worse than that anteroom sofa." She said it the way she offered everything, plain, practical, no weight attached.I looked at her, then at Marlon, who was eating the lemon pastry and conspicuously not weighing in."Yes," I said. "Thank you."She nodded and pulled out the folder she'd brought. I pulled it toward me and started reading.We worked until half past midnight. When I finally sat back and closed the last file, the building had gone quiet around us, just the hum of equipment from the next lab and the soft sound of the security rotation changing outside."Go to sleep," Marlon said, st

Chapter: Chapter 142Nicole pov Amber walked into the office, balancing a brown paper bag from the bakery in one hand, and two large cups of coffee on top of a yellow folder in the other. She set everything down on the edge of my desk with a loud thud."Almond pastries," she announced, opening the bag so the sweet smell filled the room. "And I brought that lemon pastry that Marlon always pretends he doesn't want.""I have a specific preference for sweets," Marlon said mildly, already reaching his hand into the bag to grab it."You both look like ghosts," Amber said, pulling up a small stool to sit near the desk. "Dr. Carter, you haven't touched your coffee from this morning. I checked the kitchen sink.""I've been busy, Amber," I said, but I reached out and took one of the warm cups anyway. "Thank you.""Is the nursery walk still set for tomorrow morning?" Amber asked, looking between us. "I told the main transport office that I would take the twins on foot. They looked at me like I was crazy, but I told

Chapter: Chapter 141Nicole's POVI stood by the glass cabinets, checking the supply levels, when two of my lab assistants walked into the storage alcove next to me. They did not see me behind the frosted glass partition."She is definitely still in the guest villa," the first assistant whispered, her voice low and tight. "The lunch delivery driver just came from the main gate. He said her personal driver is still sitting in the black sedan with the engine running, just waiting.""I heard she refused to sign the exit papers Tate's legal team brought her last night," the second assistant whispered back, the sound of plastic bins clinking as she moved them. "She told them she wasn't going anywhere until the elders stepped in.""Shh, lower your voice. Dr. Carter is down the hall.""Right, let's grab these vials and get out of here before she catches us," the first one muttered.Their footsteps hurried away, the heavy door of the alcove clicking shut behind them.

Chapter: Chapter 255: At LastBella pov "How long until I can see him?" I asked, my voice trembling as the adrenaline started to drain from my system."Give us about an hour to get him settled in the NICU and get your vitals stable," the nurse by my head replied, gently smoothing my hair back. "The anesthesia is going to make you feel very cold and shaky in a few minutes. That is completely normal. Just close your eyes and let us take care of you."I nodded weakly, my eyelids suddenly feeling like lead. The bright lights overhead blurred into long streaks of white as they moved me from the operating table to a rolling gurney.The transition was a fog of warm blankets, passing hallways, and the rhythmic beeping of a new monitor. True to the nurse's word, a deep, violent shivering took over my body the moment I hit the recovery room. My teeth chattered so hard my jaw ached, and my muscles clamped tight as the surgical drugs began to wear off.A nurse stayed by my side the entire time, checking my blood pressure ev

Chapter: Chapter 254: EmergencyBella POVIt was four in the morning when the blue light of my phone woke me. I rolled over on the narrow hospital bed, my hand reaching for the nightstand. The screen was flashing with a fresh notification from a celebrity gossip blog.The headline was loud, bold, and ugly.SPOTTED: BILLIONAIRE CALEB BLACK CAUGHT IN PARIS HOTEL ROOM WITH ACQUISITIONS DIRECTOR NADINA VOLKOVA.My fingers went cold as I tapped the link. The video loaded instantly. It was a close-up, shaky recording from inside a hotel suite. Nadina was there, her body pressed tight against his, wearing a thin, flimsy red silk dress. I watched as she wrapped her arms around his waist, pulled his neck down, and kissed him deeply. Caleb was right there, locked in the frame with her.A sharp, violent pain slammed into my lower stomach. I gasped, dropping the phone onto the hard linoleum floor. The device clattered against the ground, the video still looping in the dark room.I clutched my belly, my breath hitching as anothe

Chapter: Chapter 253: Her FlashbackNadina pov My nipples tightened against my blouse, aching. The scent of his arousal mixed with the cedarwood and leather of the room, making my head spin. My mouth watered at the sight of his powerful body bare chest glistening with a light sheen of sweat, thighs spread wide, that monstrous cock in his grip.Caleb’s head snapped toward the open door. His stormy grey eyes locked onto mine. For a heartbeat he froze, hand still wrapped around his thick, glistening length. His jaw twitched. Another low, dangerous moan slipped out as his grip tightened visibly around his cock, almost defiantly.I backed away on trembling legs, the carpet soft beneath my heels, my soaked panties clinging obscenely to me. “I—I’m sorry,” I whispered, voice hoarse, before pulling the door almost closed behind me. The latch clicked softly.The memory faded, leaving me standing in the present-day hotel corridor, thighs still pressed together, body burning with the same shameful heat.I had spent countless ni

Chapter: Chapter 252: Her PlanNadina pov I stumbled back to my seat, my knees shaking so badly I could barely keep my balance in my heels. I pulled at the low collar of my red silk dress, suddenly feeling cold, stripped bare under the harsh light of the room. Caleb did not even look at me. He just stood by the edge of the long table, clicking his pen, his face as hard as a stone wall.I reached for my glass, my fingers trembling so much the wine spilled over the rim and stained the white tablecloth. I swallowed the lump in my throat and forced my breathing to slow down. My mind was spinning, trying to figure out where I had miscalculated.How did he know?The thought beat against my skull. Bella's hospitalization was supposed to be a tight, iron-clad secret. She had vanished from public view, and her medical situation was kept completely under wraps to avoid any eyes on her or her children.But I had my own ways of finding things out. I had spent months tracking every detail of Caleb's life from across the Atla

I sat alone in the driver's seat in the hospital parking lot, the engine idling, staring up at the glowing windows of the high-risk ward. I had just walked out of Bella's room, but my feet felt heavy, like they were glued to the floor mats. I didn't want to put the car in drive.My phone buzzed against the center console. I picked it up, saw it was James, and swiped to answer, my voice dropping into a harsh register."James, cancel the flight," I said before he could speak. "I am not going to Paris. Call the Volkova team and tell them we are pushing the closing back a week.""Sir? What is wrong?" James sounded completely caught off guard over the line. "The private jet is fueled, and the gate closes in less than two hours. I have the papers ready. You have spent months on this acquisition, Mr. Black. It has four heritage properties, a private bank, and a fashion house stake. We cannot just push it back.""Bella

By eight o'clock, the familiar daytime hum of the high-risk ward started up again. Trays clattered down the hallway, nurses clicked past on the linoleum, and the bright morning sun cut across my white blankets.On Monday morning, a nurse tapped gently on the door frame and stepped inside, carrying a large glass vase filled with fresh white and pale yellow flowers."These just arrived for you at the front desk, Bella," she said, giving me a warm smile as she set the heavy glass down on the wide windowsill."Thank you," I murmured.She checked my IV line quickly and headed back out.

The Rejected Omega’s Revenge
They called her weak. They called her worthless. They should have called her Wynter.
Beatrice spent twenty years as Silvermist Pack's punching bag, mocked, starved, and worked to the bone. When her fated mate, Alpha heir Eamon Riven, publicly rejected her at her first shift ceremony, she thought her humiliation was complete.
She was wrong.
Because the "pathetic omega" everyone sneered at? She's actually the long-lost daughter of the most powerful Alpha family in the kingdom. And her four overprotective brothers, a ruthless Alpha Lord, a gifted Healer, a cunning Strategist, and a lethal Shadow operative just found her.
Now Beatrice is done being small. Done being sorry. And definitely done letting anyone disrespect her.
But between her groveling ex-mate who suddenly wants her back, a vengeful enemy plotting her destruction, and four brothers who terrify every man who looks at her, reclaiming her power is complicated.
Good thing Darius Veylor, the steadfast Beta with lovely eyes and a heart of gold, isn't afraid of a little chaos. Or four murderous brothers-in-law.

Chapter: Chapter 168 - The Heir ArrivesBeatrice POVI woke in the middle of the night to a sharp pain across my abdomen. For a moment, I just lay there, trying to convince myself it was nothing.Then another contraction hit, stronger this time. "Darius," I said quietly, shaking his shoulder. "It's time."He shot upright like he'd been electrocuted. "Time? Time for what? Oh gods. Oh gods. The baby."I would have laughed if another contraction hadn't stolen my breath.Darius exploded into action. He grabbed our prepared bags, dropped all three, ran straight into the door frame, cursed loudly, and tried to put on two boots at once."Breathe, love," I said through gritted teeth."I'm breathing. I'm fine. Everything's fine." He wasn't fine. He looked like he might pass out.He alerted the household by basically screaming down the corridors. Within minutes, my brothers appeared in various states of undress and panic.Theron arrived in full tactical mode, already organizing. "Corin, you're on medical. Kaelen, secure the perimeter

It had become my ritual in these final weeks of her pregnancy.I watched her sleep, marveling at the miracle beside me. Her belly was round and full with our daughter. Her face, peaceful in the early morning light, she was radiant.Sometimes I still couldn't believe she'd chosen me. This magnificent woman, powerful beyond measure, could have had anyone. But she was mine.The mate bond had deepened to something I couldn't put into words. I could sense her emotions like they were my own. Sometimes we didn't need words at all, just feelings flowing between us through the connection.Her eyes opened and caught me staring. "Creep," she said, but she was smiling."Can't help it." I leaned over to kiss her forehead. "You're carrying my pup. I'm allowed to stare.""You stare every morning.""And I'll stare every morning for the rest of our lives." I helped her sit up carefully.

Today my best friend became my sister in truth.Darius was already up, helping with last-minute preparations.

It needs to be perfect.""The flowers are perfect," I said. "Everything is perfect. Now both of you stop fussing and help me find Liora."I found her in one of the guest chambers, surrounded by half the female pack members. Everyone was talking at once, offering advice and help and probably making her more nervous."Out," I said firmly. "Everyone except Helena, out now."They scattered. Liora sat in front of the mirror in her ceremonial gown, looking terrified. "I can't do this," she said."Yes you can.""What if I'm not good enough to be Luna?" She turned to face me.

Rolling over, I found Darius already awake and grinning."Your brothers are at it again," he said.I groaned and buried my face in the pillow. "It's too early for this.""It's nearly noon, love.""Still too early."But curiosity got the better of me. I dragged myself out of bed and to the window. Down in the courtyard, Kaelen was supervising several servants unloading a wagon absolutely packed with packages."What is all that?" I asked."Baby things, I'd imagine." Darius came up behind me and wrapped his arms around my waist. "He arrived an hour ago with three wagons.""Three?""The other two are being unloaded at the west entrance."I got dressed quickly and headed downstairs. The entrance hall was chaos. Packages everywhere, servants looking confused, and Kaelen directing traffic like a general commanding troops."Kaelen," I said. "What is all this?""Baby supplies." He beamed at me.

I kept pounding into her, steady and relentless, watching her face twist with pleasure.“That’s it,” I growled. “Come for me. I’ve got you.”Her fingers moved faster. Her thighs started shaking. Then she broke—back arching, pussy clamping down so tight I could barely move. She cried my name, loud and raw, as she came hard around my cock, pulsing and soaking me.The squeeze, the heat, the sound of her—it ripped my own orgasm out of me. I slammed in one last time and came with a choked groan, spilling deep inside her, pulse after thick pulse until I was empty.We stayed locked together, panting. Her forehead rested against mine. Her fingers drew slow, lazy circles on my back while my cock softened inside her, still twitching with aftershocks.Neither of us moved to pull away."That was..." she started."Yeah," I agreed.She laughed breathlessly.
