The room fell into complete silence.

For a moment, I thought I had imagined what I'd just heard.

Then someone laughed. It wasn't a joyful laugh. It was the kind people let out when something was too ridiculous to believe.

"He has to be joking."

Another Alpha shook his head. "Ten million dollars? For her? That's impossible."

The murmurs spread through the room until everyone was talking at once. Some stared openly at me, others looked at Alpha Hayes Denzel as though they were waiting for him to

  • Billionaire Alpha's Plus-Size Mate    Chapter 180: How Far Can We Go?

    Lillian's POV He was Asher's father, but that meant nothing to me anymore. I wasn't going to let him near my son, and I wasn't going to let his family take another thing from me.I wiped my eyes before the tears could fall.I had come to Infinity hoping to find my people, but now I understood how difficult that would be. They might be living among these wolves, working in their shops, walking through their gardens, raising their children beside them. They might be hiding their identities because they had heard the same stories I had just heard.And if they were afraid to speak, how was I supposed to find them?I looked down at Asher, who was sleeping peacefully in his stroller, completely unaware of the hatred that existed in the world he had been born into.I reached out and gently touched his tiny hand."You're not going to grow up believing those lies," I whispered.My voice trembled, but I kept going."And you're not going to grow up hating yourself for who you are."I didn't kno

  • Billionaire Alpha's Plus-Size Mate    Chapter 179: Burning Hatred

    Lillian's POV This was exactly the kind of person I needed to meet. Someone who had been here for years and might know things that newer residents didn't."Then perhaps you can help me with something," I said."Go on."I hesitated for a moment, pretending to think carefully about how to phrase my question."Have you ever heard of Eclipse Wolves?"The change in his expression was immediate.His smile vanished. The color seemed to drain from his face, and he stared at me as though I had just said something terrible. His eyes darted around the café before returning to mine."What did you just say?"I blinked, pretending not to understand his reaction. "Eclipse Wolves. Have you heard of them?"He abruptly leaned forward, lowering his voice. "Where did you hear that name?"His fear was so obvious that I felt my stomach tighten."I came across it somewhere," I replied carefully. "I was just curious.""Curious?" He looked almost horrified. "Do you have any idea what you're saying? Do you kn

  • Billionaire Alpha's Plus-Size Mate    Chapter 178: Searching Again

    Lillian's POV At the next school, I spoke to another staff member who gave me similar information. I tried to look everyone in the eye as we talked, waiting for Xathura to respond.Nothing.I didn't let the disappointment show.Instead, I thanked them, smiled, and continued on my way.By early afternoon, I was hungry.I stopped at a small restaurant and ordered food. While I waited, I fed Asher and changed his diaper in the restroom. Afterward, I settled down to eat, keeping him close beside me.The food was delicious, but I was beginning to feel the strain of walking around all day.My feet hurt, my shoulders ached from carrying the bag, and Asher had started getting fussy."Just a little longer, baby," I murmured as I rocked him gently. "Mommy needs to finish eating first."He eventually settled, and I managed to finish my meal.I rested for a while before setting out again.There were still shops to visit.I wandered through the commercial area, stopping at clothing stores, groce

  • Billionaire Alpha's Plus-Size Mate    Chapter 177: Empty Search

    Lillian's POV It was a lie, but I wasn't about to explain the real reason.I couldn't risk letting strangers get too close to Asher. I didn't know who might be working with Isabella, and until I understood more about this place, I intended to keep my baby close.Mara didn't press the matter."Well, he's lucky to have such a protective mother. Thank you for the cookies!""You're welcome!"I continued to the next apartment, introducing myself to another neighbor and offering her some cookies too.Her name was Tessa, and she was just as welcoming as Mara. She asked where I had come from, how I was settling in, and whether I needed anything.I answered what I could without revealing too much about my past.When she asked to hold Asher, I gave her the same explanation about the doctor's advice.She seemed confused, but she accepted it.Over the next few hours, I went from door to door, introducing myself to the people living nearby. Some were young wolves who had moved to Infinity after l

  • Billionaire Alpha's Plus-Size Mate    Chapter 176: Introducing Ourselves

    Lillian's POV The next morning, I woke up to Asher's little noises beside me.I turned my head and found him staring at me, his tiny hands moving about as though he had something very important to tell me.I smiled. "Good morning, my baby."He kicked his legs and gave me a little smile."Oh, look at you. Are you happy to see Mommy?"He responded with another little sound, and I laughed before picking him up."That's right. You should be happy. You have the most beautiful mother in the world."Your confidence is impressive, Xathura remarked.I ignored her.I carried Asher to the bathroom, cleaned him up, changed his diaper, and fed him before giving him his bath. He was in a particularly good mood that morning, making little noises whenever I spoke to him.By the time I finished bathing him, I had already kissed his cheeks more times than I could count."You're too cute. Do you know that?"He stared at me with his wide eyes."Of course you don't. You're just a baby."I dressed him in

  • Billionaire Alpha's Plus-Size Mate    Chapter 175: Safe Journey

    Lillian's POV I gave him a bath, changed his diaper, and dressed him in clean clothes. Then I took my own bath and changed into fresh clothes. By the time I stepped out of the bathroom, there was a knock on the door. “Room service.” I opened the door and the staff brought in my breakfast. I thanked them before sitting down to eat. I had barely finished when Asher suddenly started crying. I immediately looked toward him. “What happened, baby?” I picked him up and began swaying him gently. “Shh... Mommy's here.” But he wouldn't stop. I tried rocking him. I checked his diaper. Nothing. I checked his clothes. Still nothing. “What's wrong?” He continued crying, and my heart began to ache. I carefully examined his face. That's when I noticed something. There was a tiny piece of an eyelash stuck near his eye. “Oh!” I immediately realized what was wrong. “Baby, is this what's bothering you?” I gently removed it. Almost instantly, his crying stopped. I sighed in relief. “Oh
