Dominic’s POV

The healer emerged from the bedroom at two in the morning, her scrubs stained with blood and sweat. Dark circles ringed her eyes. She pulled off her gloves and dropped them in the medical waste bag.

“Complications,” she said without preamble. “Severe bleeding. The baby’s in distress. We need to get her to the hospital immediately.”

My heart dropped into my stomach. “How bad?”

“Bad enough that I can’t handle it here. The ambulance is already on its way.” She glanced toward the closed bedroom door. “She’s stable for now, but we’re looking at emergency surgery.”

Nick paced beside me in the hallway, his face pale. “What kind of surgery?”

“C-section, possibly more depending on what they find. Transport’s five minutes out.”

Through the bedroom door came the sound of Kelsey crying out. Each noise made me flinch. This wasn’t how it was supposed to happen. Birth should be natural, joyful—not a medical emergency threatening both mother and child.

“Sir, you should know,” the healer

  • Alpha's Regret: Return of the Rejected Mate   Chapter 215: Too Much, Too Soon

    Dominic’s POVAs dessert plates were cleared and brandy was poured, the conversation shifted to more serious matters. Mark leaned back in his chair, his expression growing somber as he addressed the table.“At least we learned something from that incident when they took the children,” he said, referring to the kidnapping that had terrified every parent in the territory. “Gave us insights into their operational methods.”Martin nodded agreement, swirling brandy in his glass. “Intelligence gathering at its finest. Though I still get nightmares thinking about what could have happened if we hadn’t found them in time.”The memory of those terrible hours still made my chest tight. Debbie’s disappearance had triggered every protective instinct I possessed, turning me into someone I barely recognized.The relief of finding her safe had been overwhelming, but the knowledge of what could have happened haunted me still.“The important thing is that we did find them,” I said, though the words felt

  • Alpha's Regret: Return of the Rejected Mate   Chapter 214: Nick’s Slip

    Dominic’s POVThe dining room felt wrong without Mom. She’d chosen everything—the heavy table, the chandelier, the paintings of past Alphas watching over family meals. Now Kelsey sat in Mom’s chair, using Mom’s china, playing hostess in a dead woman’s house.Mark carved lamb at my right. Martin gestured with his wine glass, talking about border patrols. Nick sat at the far end, close enough to join conversations but far enough to watch everyone.Kelsey moved between kitchen and dining room, refilling glasses, making sure everyone had enough food. She’d outdone herself tonight. Herb-crusted lamb, roasted vegetables, fresh bread.Exactly what Mom would’ve served.“Excellent meal, Kelsey,” Mark said, raising his glass. “You’ve really made this place feel like home.”“Thank you. I just want everyone comfortable.”She sat beside me, her hand touching my shoulder briefly. The gesture felt practiced.The touch lingered longer than necessary, like she was marking territory or seeking reassuran

  • Alpha's Regret: Return of the Rejected Mate   Chapter 213: Ghosts in the Meadow

    Dominic’s POVThe meadow looked exactly as it had when I was ten years old, sitting on this same boulder while Mom unpacked sandwiches from a wicker basket. Wildflowers dotted the grass in patches of purple and yellow—the same ones she’d taught me to identify during our picnics.“Larkspur,” I said aloud, pointing toward a cluster of deep blue blooms. “And those are black-eyed Susans.”The silence swallowed my words. No one answered back with praise for remembering the lessons she’d tried so hard to teach me before pack duties consumed our relationship. Before I became too important and too busy for meadow picnics with my mother.This place held so many memories. Mom teaching me plant names, showing me how to identify animal tracks in the soft earth, and explained why certain flowers grew only in shaded areas while others needed full sun.She’d been endlessly patient with my questions, treating every curiosity like it mattered.“Why do the larkspur grow so tall, Mama?”“Because they’re

  • Alpha's Regret: Return of the Rejected Mate   Chapter 212: Behind Bars

    Penelope’s POVThe cell stank like bleach and sweat.I lay on the narrow cot, staring at a crack in the ceiling that looked like a lightning bolt. Eight feet by ten feet. I’d paced it out nearly a week ago when they threw me in here. Eight steps one way, ten the other.A tiny window near the ceiling let in gray light. No view, just a slice of sky that told me whether it was day or night.Today was Debbie’s sixth birthday.My chest felt tight. Right now she was probably jumping on her bed at Mom and Dad’s house, looking for my presents, missing me.Or maybe she wasn’t thinking of me at all anymore.Maybe she’d figured out I wasn’t coming back.I rolled over and pressed my face into the flat pillow. It smelled like soap.Every year on March fifteenth, I made her chocolate chip pancakes shaped like butterflies. She’d eat them while I sang “Happy Birthday” in the funny voice that made her laugh until she got hiccups.Someone else was making her breakfast today. Someone else was singing to

  • Alpha's Regret: Return of the Rejected Mate   Chapter 211: The Final Proof

    Dominic’s POVThe crime scene photograph lay on my desk, showing Penelope’s silver earring wedged between stones exactly where my mother’s blood had pooled. I stared at it until my eyes burned, letting the reality sink into my bones.This was it. Final proof that the woman I’d once loved had murdered my mother in cold blood.No accident could explain the placement. No structural failure could account for Penelope’s jewelry ending up at the exact spot where she died. The earring eliminated every possible alternative I’d desperately clung to in some hidden corners of my mind.Penelope was guilty. Completely, undeniably guilty.The certainty should have brought peace, but instead it left me feeling empty and hollowed out. My mother was still dead. My daughter’s mother was still a killer. Nothing about this revelation made the world feel safer or more just.A soft knock interrupted my brooding. “Dominic?” Kelsey’s voice came through the door. “I brought tea. You’ve been in here since the a

  • Alpha's Regret: Return of the Rejected Mate   Chapter 210: The Arrest

    Penelope’s POVI was adjusting weapon racks when Ryan crashed through the training facility door, his face ashen and every step panicked. My students stopped their sword work immediately, sensing catastrophe in his wild-eyed expression.“Commander,” he gasped, his chest heaving like he’d run miles to reach me. “Emergency. We need to talk. Now.”“Take a break, everyone,” I told the class, my stomach already clenching with dread. “Work on individual forms.”Ryan grabbed my arm and pulled me toward the office, his fingers digging in hard enough to leave marks. Once inside, he shoved his phone at my face with shaking hands.“They found this,” he said, his voice cracking. “Crime scene investigators discovered it wedged in the stones exactly where Sophia died.”My jaw dropped.My Moon Goddess earring stared back at me from the photograph, its silver crescent clear against dark stone. The knotwork was unmistakable—a family heirloom I’d treasured since my awakening ceremony.“That’s impossible
