LOGINJason’s POV"It’s not actual heat, but your body acts that way as if you are in hear. In phantom heat it’s not necessary for you to mate if you can bear it," he explained, "But if it’s difficult, it would be good you mate because you are different from other pureblood shewolves. It will benefit you and the baby. The delivery of a pureblood child is not easy, so it will help you get it easier."Her cheeks turned a little red as all of us were there."Don’t worry. Only until you deliver the baby," he said, "It lasts only four to five months for she-wolves. But as you are rare and pureblood, and depending on the gender of the child, duration varies between four to six months. You don’t have to trouble yourself with nine months like in humans."She hummed."Do you remember how long your first pregnancy lasted?" he asked.She looked at him speechless for a moment and shook her head like in guilt."I am sorry," Liam said in an apologetic tone. "I was just trying to guess it for the coming d
Jason’s POVIn the late afternoon, Liam had arrived home. The old man must be restless the entire time to know what exactly we got to know from Sophia.After Eira was calm, we as a family were stable after the talk, only then Kael allowed Liam to come to our home.Taking care of her was the first priority so Liam had to wait."Let him hear the recording of what Sophia said," Kael instructed me.It was a normal protocol to record such talks for the record and as proof. Later when we need, we could hear it again to find some additional clues that we might have missed.At the security room, I let Liam hear it and then only guided him towards the home.On the way home, Liam’s mood was entirely sore."Bastards are really something to ruin a young girl’s life and kill so many innocent people in our pack," Liam mumbled with anger. "I wish all of them rot in the depth of hell but the death won’t grace them."Now that he sounded like a typical cursing old man."What do you think about the exte
Kael’s POV"It’s for everyone," Lucian added."Even if you didn’t say," Rafe already had his portion, after offering Roman one as well, and said, "Rome, we poor children can eat as well. In our childhood days all this was just a dream." He let out an exaggerated sigh.Roman offered him an agreeing nod. "Precious dream indeed.""Stop being a drama queen bitches again," Lucian muttered, annoyed at the two. "Get over it already.""Okay, daddy Lucian," Rafe winked, unfazed. "Don’t scare the poor kids.""Fuck off," Lucian grumbled under his breath, picking up his ice cream and settled in on sofa.Meanwhile, Eira leaned toward Raven, whispering softly to him, "You can’t learn the bad words they say. Alright?"Raven nodded obediently."Good boy."She didn’t even attempt to scold Rafe and Lucian anymore — it was clear she didn’t have the energy. Instead, she focused on guiding her son, the only one she cared to correct.Rafe scoffed. "Wait till you hear your mommy talking worse than us. She h
Kael’s POVAs she was finally calm, I wanted to tell her the full truth — how I learned everything, how everything connected — but then I saw her lean into Roman, letting herself rest.The emotional storm she had just gone through had drained her completely. And with the pregnancy... her body was already exhausted.It wouldn’t be right to overwhelm her with more now. I have to wait for a while."Are you alright?" Roman asked her softly, holding her protectively with both arms wrapped around her."I’m just tired," she whispered back, barely audible, closing her eyes as she let her face rest against his chest."You need to rest," I told her quietly. My hands still holding hers, caressing it gently. "You’re pregnant, that’s why you’re feeling so many changes. You’ll feel exhausted often. I’ll ask Liam to do something to help."She let out a tired little hum — a small sound, yet enough to show she had heard me."I’ll cook something delicious for you. You might feel better," Lucian said ge
Lucian’s POVShe was pregnant and exhaustion now clung to her like a second skin.At that, past six years had exhausted her mind and soul. How much one could even endure at last to give up entirely one day. That’s what happened with her.Jason hurried to get water for her. The bastard cried more than any of us — tears falling like every regret he had stored for years finally came undone.He didn’t think when he was torturing her. But now? Now he looked like someone who wished he could go back in time and drag his past self to hell.None of us had hurt her physically the way he had. And I wasn’t innocent either. I was an ass to support his actions.We all carried our share of guilt.But hers... hers was the only pain that mattered now.The three of us went to her. Roman sat on one side of her and Rafe on the other. Bastards left no place for me."You are right. There is no use in hating our own people when we are going to live together," Roman said quietly, gently — as if afraid one wr
Lucian’s POVThe tears and emotions Kael had been trying so hard to hold back finally spilled out, breaking free like a dam that had reached its final limit. His breath trembled, his shoulders shaking as everything he had been holding escaped him."I am sorry..." he mumbled, the words choking him, barely audible. "...I am sorry... Eira..."In response she could only cry harder, her memories resurfacing painfully, ripping through her composure.No apology in this world could erase what she had endured, yet those three words were all any of us had. ’We are sorry’ the only thing to offer in front of a wound too deep, too unfair.The four of us stood frozen in our places, each fighting our own storm of emotions, our own tears that refused to stop. What could we possibly do to take even a fraction of her pain away?If Kael hadn’t needed to speak with her, I would have gone to her and pulled her into my arms, to give her even the smallest sense of comfort. And I knew—without question—the ot
Lucian’s POVRoman came out of his room, dressed and ready to go out. He didn’t even glance at us or ask why we were all silent and what this tension in the air was."I have some work to attend to," he said to Kael, then walked out the door.For a moment, I thought Kael might stop Roman, ask him so
Roman’s POVLucian ran the knife along her thighs and soon it tore apart the underwear she was wearing.But she didn’t even flinch. As if she couldn’t feel a thing, or hear anything around her. Her hollow and empty gaze simply stared out the window, fixed on the bright sky beyond the glass.Could s
Roman’s POV"Tarantula bites," Liam informed me as I stared at the wounds. "They’re all over her body."My fists clenched. We all knew how terrified she was of spiders, and yet...No wonder she had lost her mind. No wonder she was terrified of even the air around her.My gaze shifted to her bandage
Lucian’s POVWe arrived at the underground punishment zone at the far corner of the estate. Inside, the place was lit with numerous lights. It had all kinds of different painful punishments meant for werewolves. Every inch of it screamed pain.Unfortunately, we were the ones who designed this place
