Dante’s POV

I stayed where I was after Ivy walked away with Cole, staring at the empty hallway as her last words played in my head. Five minutes ago, I had been sure I caught her. One wrong sentence had been enough to make everything inside me click into place, but now I wasn't sure what I had heard anymore.

She had not looked scared when I questioned her. She had pushed me away and told me she didn't know what I was talking about, so coldly that even I had doubted myself for a second.

  • Carrying His Secret Baby; My Stepbrother's Forbidden Claim   Chapter 32;

    Dante’s POVI stayed where I was after Ivy walked away with Cole, staring at the empty hallway as her last words played in my head. Five minutes ago, I had been sure I caught her. One wrong sentence had been enough to make everything inside me click into place, but now I wasn't sure what I had heard anymore.She had not looked scared when I questioned her. She had pushed me away and told me she didn't know what I was talking about, so coldly that even I had doubted myself for a second. The Wren I knew five years ago would have reacted differently, but five years was a long time. I wasn't going to get my answer by standing there thinking about it.I took out my phone and called Marcus as I headed toward the elevator. He answered after two rings, sounding surprised to hear from me this late. “Alpha? What's wrong?” he asked, and I pressed the elevator button harder than I needed to.“I want you to investigate Ivy Sinclair again,” I told him. The elevator opened, and I stepped inside wh

  • Carrying His Secret Baby; My Stepbrother's Forbidden Claim   Chapter 31; He's Back

    Wren’s POV“I told that to only one person, Ivy.” Dante’s hands held my arms against the wall. “How do you know?” His face was inches from mine, his eyes searching for an answer I could never give. I had made one mistake. Explaining myself would give him a second.“I don’t know what you’re talking about.” I planted my palms against his chest and shoved. “Get off me.” His grip loosened, and I stepped out of his reach. Five years ago, his anger would have silenced me. I refused to become that woman again.I took my phone from my bag and called Cole. “I’m upstairs. The door’s stuck.” I gave him the room number and asked him to bring someone from the hotel. “Stay where you are,” he said. “I’m coming.”I ended the call and slipped the phone into my bag. Dante watched every movement without speaking. The real Ivy Sinclair had given me more than a name. I had met her while pregnant and desperate for work, our resemblance startling us both.She was human, dying from an illness neither her mon

  • Carrying His Secret Baby; My Stepbrother's Forbidden Claim   Chapter 30; You Shouldn't Know That!

    Wren's POV"What do you want from me, Dante?""I want to know why you walked into that gala with a man I've never seen before." He didn't move an inch, didn't blink, standing there like he had all night to wait me out. "Who is Cole to you?""He's none of your concern. Leave." I turned away from him, hoping that would be the end of it."No." He refused immediately, making me scoff. "I said leave.""And I said no."I could have screamed. He stood there with his arms crossed, utterly immovable, repeating the same question in a dozen different ways like patience alone would eventually wear me down into answering it.Every time I opened my mouth to order him out again, he simply waited me out, unmoved, like he had all the time in the world and nowhere else he'd rather be."You don't get to walk in here and demand explanations about my personal life.""I'm not asking for a full account of your personal life. I'm asking about one man.""One man who has nothing to do with you.""Why do you e

  • Carrying His Secret Baby; My Stepbrother's Forbidden Claim   Chapter 29; His Cold Lingering Stare

    Wren's POVI felt him before I saw him.The second I stepped into the ballroom with my hand in Cole's, some instinct older than five years of hiding prickled up the back of my neck, some old reflex that had kept me alive and unnoticed for so long, and I turned straight into Dante's stare from clear across the room.He wasn't even pretending to look away. His jaw was tight, his hand curled at his side like he was fighting the urge to close the distance between us, and his eyes had locked onto our joined hands with an intensity that made my skin go hot and cold at once.Seraphina stood beside him in a gown the color of champagne, saying something I couldn't hear, one hand resting possessively on his arm, and he didn't seem to register a word of it, or her hand, or anything except the space between us.I looked away first."Can we sit?" I asked Cole, my voice steadier than I felt, my fingers tightening slightly around his without meaning to."Give me a second." He was already being pulle

  • Carrying His Secret Baby; My Stepbrother's Forbidden Claim   Chapter 28: Something Jealousy?

    Dante's POVShe didn't answer right away, and that told me more than any answer could have. Her eyes had gone somewhere else entirely, some calculation running behind them that had nothing to do with the question I'd actually asked."Don't tell me he really is...""Mind your own business, Dante." Ivy's voice cut through before I could finish, sharp enough to end the conversation on its own. "I don't owe you an explanation about Cole or anyone else in my life.""I only asked a question.""You've asked a lot of questions lately. Her birthday. Now this." She shook her head, already turning away. "Whatever you think you're figuring out, stop. There's nothing to find.""That's not what it looks like from where I'm standing.""I don't care what it looks like."She walked off before I could say another word, and I stood there in the hallway with nothing but the question I hadn't gotten to finish and a growing certainty that I was closer to something than she wanted me to be.I spent the rest

  • Carrying His Secret Baby; My Stepbrother's Forbidden Claim   Chapter 27: Is He Nora's Father?

    Wren's POV"When is Nora's birthday again?"My mind went blank. Not the good kind of blank, the kind where every possible answer suddenly feels like a trap.Why did he want to know that? Out of everything he could have asked, why that?I thought about the way he'd studied her drawing in my office. The way he'd lingered over her eyes at the hospital. Every small thing was starting to add up into something I didn't want him doing math on.I opened my mouth, still scrambling, when a voice saved me."Ivy!"I spun around so fast I nearly dropped my bag.Cole stood by the door, duffel bag slung over one shoulder, looking like he'd come straight from the airport. Relief hit me so hard I could have cried.I crossed the room and threw my arms around him before he'd even fully stepped inside."What are you doing here? You left the pack for this?""Later," he murmured against my hair. His eyes flicked briefly toward Dante, quick and assessing, before settling back on me. "I'll explain everything
