Jake

I see Sophia waiting for me the second I step onto the porch.

Arms crossed, weight shifted just a little to one side, like she’s been standing there long enough to settle in.

But her gaze? That’s locked onto me. Like she already knows. Like she can feel it... this mess twisting up inside me. And maybe she does.

She doesn’t say anything, doesn’t ask. Just steps forward and wraps her arms around me, pulling me in before I can even think to resist.

That’s Sophia. Always giving... always comforting and taking their pain. Never hesitates. Never demands explanations. Just… offers.

I let out a breath, slow and shaky, and close my eyes for a second. Just one. Just long enough to lean into the warmth of her.

She holds on, and I let her.

Neither of us says a word. And somehow, that’s better.

But it doesn’t stop the guilt from creeping in, intertwining around my heart like the thick vines, like it belongs there.

She’s my sister.

She has never once turned her back on me, never doubted me, ne

I don’t know what to think. I want to like Anastasia but after she left that clue idk! I thought she’d go back & scarp them off. Also thought Jake saw her do it & he would have destroyed the marks but nothing g was ever said, so…I can’t believe she would let any harm come to Rose or Sophia

  • Blind Alpha And His Unwanted Mate   Epilogue

    Alexei steps outside into the small backyard, and a smile curves onto his lips the moment his eyes sweep across the scene in front of him. All the people he loves, all the people who matter, are gathered here. His family. The house that once felt like nothing but a lifeless box of walls and furniture has become something else entirely. It has turned into a home, alive with laughter and warmth, a place where countless memories will be made.His gaze softens when it finds Irene. Her glow is impossible to miss. Rose and Reid are standing in front of her, their tiny hands pressed against her bump, both of them looking fascinated like they’ve just discovered some secret magic. Alexei can already picture them growing up together, best friends just the way he and Mikhail have always been. The sight makes his chest swell with pride. If it wasn’t enough to see Irene radiant and smiling, seeing her carry their child takes it to another level, a pride that even his wolf howls with.Emma is runni

  • Blind Alpha And His Unwanted Mate   Chapter 72

    AlexeiA few months later...The kitchen smells sweet, warm, and alive. Irene stands at the counter, hair tied up, apron dusted with flour as she carefully smooths icing across a cake. There’s a little crease between her brows, her focus sharp, but every now and then she hums under her breath, soft and light, like the sound belongs only to this moment.I lean against the doorway, just watching her. My chest feels tight, but not in a painful way... in that way it does when I realize how much I’ve been given. Everything I once thought was only a dream is right here, alive in front of me. Irene, with her quiet determination, pouring herself into making this perfect for Emma. And Emma, who doesn’t even know what’s waiting for her.She never remembered her birthday. Never had candles or cake or people clapping for her. Irene said that needed to change, that Emma deserved not just a celebration, but a day she could claim as her own. And she picked today. The same day we’re going to ask her

  • Blind Alpha And His Unwanted Mate   Chapter 71

    Irene Unlocking the door, we step into our heaven... our home. A home that has been my safe place after his arms, because it smells like him... He walks and sits on the couch, running his hands through his hair, and lets his head rest in his hands. A weight has been lifted off his shoulders, yet there is something else that is pressing on his chest... even though he has said nothing, his silence is telling me what he is not.I climb into his lap without thinking, curling into him the way I always do, and he molds around me like that’s exactly where he wants to be. He leans back and folds his arms around me, pulling me in so tight I can hear his heartbeat under my ear. For a minute we just breathe together, both of us using the other to find a rhythm."What are you thinking?" I play with his fingers before he interlocks our hands and stares at them.Kissing my knuckles, he takes a slow breath, and when he answers it’s quiet but the words land hard. “Just what kind of life I would hav

  • Blind Alpha And His Unwanted Mate   Chapter 70

    AlexeiRight there it clicks. The whole truth slams into me like a punch to the chest. This was never about me. Not about love. Not about the unbreakable bond she keeps shouting about. It’s about what I can give her. About pups. About the one thing she cannot get from Ryan.She wants me because she wants a womb. She wants to use me, the same way she’s used me before, keeping me close so her wolf could survive while she slept with someone else. She kept me tied to her for her own survival. Now she wants more.It shouldn't hurt me, but it does. Deep down, I hoped that somewhere, even in the slightest way, she would have come here because of the bond. That she realized she did wrong with me... and the bond that once tied us together. But I was so wrong... just like I was wrong in understanding her.My jaw tightens. I yank her hand off my face. My skin crawls where she touched me. For the first time, I see her... truly see her, for what she is. She was never someone who deserved my love.

  • Blind Alpha And His Unwanted Mate   Chapter 69

    AlexeiAlexeiMy wolf snarls so low it makes the back of my teeth ache. I can feel him pressing to the surface, hungry to react, to make her regret even thinking this would work.Irene’s fingers close around mine like an anchor. That small pressure is enough to pull the animal back a notch. And for a second, the world narrows down to the warmth of her hand in mine.She doesn’t say a word, doesn’t flinch, but I know how hard this must be on her... standing here while Stella tries to stake a claim on me.Irene steps forward, shoulders squared, locking eyes with Stella. Then she glances at me, takes a single step back. Instinct kicks in, and I move forward without hesitation, closing the space. She does it again, that little retreat, and my wolf whines at the distance. I follow, closing it up fast this time. Before she can move away again, I catch her hand and hold her tight. She smiles, that proud kind of smile that makes my chest burn, before turning her head back to Stella.“This is

  • Blind Alpha And His Unwanted Mate   Chapter 68

    Alexei"Irene feels there is some other motive behind Stella’s return… not just the mate bond." I pull her into my side, throwing my arm around her shoulders. My nose brushes through her hair, and I breathe her in deep. Her scent smooths the edge of my wolf’s anger, keeps him from clawing his way out."She’s right," Sophia says, giving Irene a sharp nod. "Even I could sense it from her emotions. There’s something she’s holding back." Her voice drops lower, almost like she’s talking to herself. "Thank goodness, now we won’t have to deal with her, since Irene is your mate."Irene finally speaks for the first time in a while, her voice soft and gentle with a hint of seriousness. "I think it has something to do with being a mother." Her eyes narrow slightly, like she’s piecing together a puzzle only she can see."How do you know?" Anastasia leans forward, her tone curious but not challenging."I didn’t at first," Irene admits. "Her voice… it had a longing in it. Earlier, I couldn’t place
