Belinda snarled, her voice full of evil.Alpha Sebastian moved lightning fast. His huge wolf form jumped between his mate and the witch.His fur stood up with protective anger as he took the full hit of Belinda's dark magic.Black energy crashed into his body, cutting his flesh and breaking his bones.Blood splashed across the deck as three ribs cracked loudly.Even in pain, Soren kept growling."You will never touch them," Alpha Sebastian's voice came from the wolf's throat, rough but clear. "Not while I'm alive."Cecilia bent over in pain, holding her stomach.The baby kicked harder than ever before, like it could sense the danger.Each kick felt like her child was fighting back, refusing to accept the witch's claim."The ritual has alrea

Something about her seemed different tonight.Now that they were nearby, Cecilia could observe them more clearly.As the acrobats did a dangerous flip, Xenia started humming softly.The tune was quiet but strange.It sounded like an old nursery rhyme, but twisted.Wrong for this fancy party.Cecilia put her hand over her stomach protectively.The moment she heard Xenia's humming, her baby moved violently inside her.The feeling was so sudden and strong she almost cried out."Are you okay?"

"I've been better, sweetheart. But don't worry about me.""The doctor says she needs to stay another day or two," VanDyck said. His voice sounded tired and rough.

    Author's povThe moment Liam finished cleaning the kitchen, he saw the three women standing there looking worried.He walked over, sensing something was wrong."What's happened?" he asked, his voice calm but concerned."My mom's been hurt. I need to go to her," Cecilia replied, already heading inside to get her things.Liam's face immediately became serious.His eyes narrowed as he asked for details, and Harper quickly told him about the phone call they'd just received."I see," Liam nodded thoughtfully before going to his bedroom, clearly thinking through something.As Cecilia hurried downstairs with Harper and Yvonne, waiting for Yvonne's bodyguards to arrive, she saw someone who absolutely should not have been there—Tang, standing beside a car in the garage."Cecilia," Tang greeted her with obvious guilt in his voice."You—!"

    Author's povXenia's voice rang out clear and pleading. "Pretty brother is leaving..."Maggie caught Xavier's eye from across the table, giving him a pointed look.Finally understanding what was expected of him, Alpha Xavier reached out and grasped Xenia's small wrist, pulling her back to her seat."Xenia, you haven't finished your breakfast," he said firmly."But I want to go to the garden too," she whispered, her eyes still fixed on Alpha Sebastian's retreating form."You can go after you finish eating.""No! I want to go now!" Her voice rose with childish determination.Alpha Xavier struggled with the increasingly agitated child.Eventually, he gave in to her persistence and allowed her to pull him toward the garden.Within moments, they had disappeared through the doorway.Alpha Gavin seized the opportunity, mumbling something about needing fresh air before making his own quick exit.--In the garden, Cecilia walked arm-in-arm with Martha, enjoying the peaceful morning air.Alpha S

    Cecilia's povI was halfway through my seared salmon when Yvonne blindsided me with that question."So, did you look through the photos I sent you?
