RHEA’S POV “Hello, you’ve reached Alpha Miles Mondragon of the Snowfall Pack. I’m currently unavailable to take your call, but your message is important to me. Please leave your name, contact information, and a brief description of your concern, and I’ll get back to you as soon as possible. If

MILES’ POV The deal had been a success. Another financial milestone secured, another round of applause from the boardroom filled with sharp suits and fat wallets. It was almost six in the evening, and I should’ve been celebrating, or at least feeling satisfied. Instead, I was sitting in my hote
“Alpha,” she said, her voice light with just a hint of hesitation. “What a coincidence.” “Roxy,” I said evenly, glancing at Rico, who gave her a curt nod of acknowledgment. “What are you doing here?” She offered a polite smile. “Oh, I’m staying here. I was just heading back to my room.” I blinked
RHEA’S POV I lay flat on my back on the hospital bed, staring blankly at the stark white ceiling. The room was quiet except for the occasional hum of machines, but inside me, it was very chaotic. I had cried until there were no tears left, and now all that remained was a hollow, aching emptiness.

MILES’ POV My boots echoed off the concrete walls, the sharp, deliberate rhythm of my fury. The hallway stank of damp cement, rust, and sweat. A single bulb flickered overhead, throwing shadows across the narrow passage as Evans and Rico flanked me on either side. "Alpha," Evans began cautiously,
“No, no. Don’t stop me now. Ree, just say the word and I swear I’ll trip her in the hallway. Just a little oopsie with a spilled coffee. Nothing major. No witnesses. I’ll even throw in a soft landing.”I burst out laughing, covering my face as tears and giggles mixed together.Stella grinned like a
I didn’t wait for her reply. I picked up my files, held my head high, and walked out of that room before she could see the tears burning in my eyes.But one thing was certain; whatever this war was, I wasn’t backing down. I will sure prove her wrong. I have nothing to fear.I hurried down the hallwa

A Wrong Kind of ComfortMILES POV I gulped down another shot of whiskey, eyes glassy, staring at nothing. It had been almost a week since I left Crimson Peak and returned to Snowfall, but the ache in my chest hadn’t dulled, not even a little. Rhea’s words still played on a loop in my head, like a s
I took a slow breath. "Fine. But we’ll explain it to him gradually. One step at a time." Miles nodded curtly. "Of course. No need to rush things." *** I was late. Not terribly, but still not a great first impression on the new Head of Neurology. After everything that happened this morning with Mi
