I inclined my head, wincing a little. “Feels good.” “I’m Dr. Patel Kentuckey. I’ll be handling your case moving forward.” He walked closer, eyes scanning the monitors as he continued. “I must say, I’m impressed by your recovery. Given the severity of your hypothermia, this is nothing short of a mir
Of Storms and ScarsRHEA'S POVI had rehearsed this scene time and again in my head. I had it all in my head. Everything I would say to them, but what I didn't get ready for was the surge of emotion that would overwhelm me. Tears welled up in my eyes as Pa Dennis blinked like he had seen a ghost. Ma
My brows creased slightly, but I kept the smile on my face, wondering what he meant by that. But I made no comment. Then, he looked over at Miles, then back at me, looking far too excited."He hasn’t looked at another woman in seven years. Not once. He has refused to claim another Luna. That boy has
Fathers and SonsRHEA’S POV I purposely avoided going back to Miles' room after I left. I didn’t show up yesterday like I promised Ma Lisa. I didn’t go today either. Not even when Dr. Patel sent one of the nurses to tell me they had asked for me twice. I just couldn’t bring myself to do it. I didn
When I looked at the rearview mirror again, my eyes met his. His eyes were sad and unsure. “I’m sorry,” he said softly. “I didn’t mean to make you mad.” My heart squeezed. I reached for the gear and pulled over to the side of the road, my chest aching. “No, baby. I’m sorry.” I turned in my seat to
Of Boundaries and Blood RHEA'S POV Sekani beamed at his new wristwatch, his small fingers turning it this way and that as I pulled into the driveway. “I love it so much,” he said, eyes sparkling. I smiled at him from the rearview mirror. “I’m glad you do,” I replied. “Promise me you’ll always we
I didn’t want Sekani anywhere near this conversation. He didn’t need to hear the things I was about to say. Because I was going to yell. I had made it crystal clear in the last message I sent that I never wanted to see Yuri again. Not at my house. Not at my porch. Not even in my dreams. He could hav
The Edge of Letting Go RHEA'S POV “Ree, I know you’re mad at me, but just hear me out,” Yuri pleaded, his voice barely holding together. “Yuri, what’s there to hear out? That you’ve been lying to me for goddess knows how long?” His face twisted in frustration. “I did what I had to do. I was tryi
I stepped through the doorway just in time to catch him launching himself into my arms. His curls bounced as he grinned up at me, and I scooped him up easily, my heart swelling the way it always did when he smiled. “Hey, Captain,” I said, ruffling his head. “Miss me?” He nodded eagerly. “Mum said
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
Storms Come in White CoatsRHEA'S POVThe morning meeting was supposed to be routine. We had just concluded rounds and gathered in the conference room for the weekly neuro case debrief. A handful of nurses, residents, and specialists sat around the long table. Dr. Mario stood at the head, flipping t
*** FREYA'S POV Alpha Miles Mondragon. So powerful. So hauntingly handsome. That sculpted body, those commanding eyes. The aura of authority that clung to him like a second skin, he was everything a woman could want and more. From the moment I first laid eyes on him, he took my breath away. But
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
Not Everyone Gets a Happy Ending RHEA'S POV An uncomfortable silence stretched between us after that confession. Miles still looked stunned, like he hadn’t fully processed it yet. But I kept telling myself not to feel bad. I did the right thing. Not everyone gets a happily ever after. I stared dow
