Divorcing the Blind Alpha Chapter 226
Epilogue - Penelope's POVOne year later."Careful," Kael said, steadying my elbow as I climbed the depot steps, considerably slower now than I had been the day I first walked up that ridge toward a quarry full of danger. "You are not exactly built for balance these days.""I am seven months pregnant, Kael, not incapable.""I did not say incapable," he said, grinning. "I said not built for balance. There is a difference."Around us, the depot yard had transformed once more, this time for a far gentler occasion, the academy's second cohort graduation, families gathered beneath the same string lights that had once lit our wedding.Rosalind stood near the front of the assembled graduates, her Ashcombe pendant catching the afternoon light, pride and nerves fighting for space on her face as she waited for her name to be called."She is going to be extraordinary," Kael murmured, watching her."She already is," I said.Thomas and Adaline sat together near the front, Thomas's hand resting pro

Penelope's POV"You have that look again," Kael said, joining me at the depot window where I stood watching the late autumn light stretch gold across the yard, six months now since the wedding, the season's first real chill finally settling into the air."What look.""The one where you are quietly proud of something and refusing to say it out loud until someone asks."I laughed, caught. "Rosalind. She asked to formally join the family registry this week. Not obligation. Choice. She said she was finally ready."Kael's face softened. "That is wonderful news.""She also mentioned wanting to train at the Ashcombe Academy," I added. "Your academy. She wants to help find people the way we helped find her.""She would be extraordinary at it," Kael said, something proud and unsurprised in his voice. "She has already survived the very thing she would be training to prevent. That kind of understanding cannot be taught."Thomas and Adaline had settled into a quiet rhythm of their own, living tog

Kael's POV"The academy opens in spring," I told Khalani, reviewing the final blueprints spread across my new office desk, considerably smaller and considerably more honest than the grand study I had inherited from my father. "Twelve trainees confirmed already, drawn from four different packs along the border.""That is a strong start," Khalani said. "Are you certain about the name.""The Ashcombe Academy," I said. "It felt right. A reminder of exactly why oversight like this matters, and exactly what happens when powerful people decide not to look closely enough."Khalani nodded, something like approval in his expression. "Your father would not recognise you, if he could see this.""My father built an empire on not looking closely enough," I said. "I would rather build something that makes looking closely the entire point."My phone buzzed. A message from Penelope, simple and warm, updates from the depot's ongoing outreach work, a photograph of Rosalind laughing at something Zaria ha

Kael's POV"You are certain about this," my father said, watching me settle into the head seat at the council table for the first time as full Alpha, the formal transfer of power finally complete after weeks of careful, deliberate handover."I am certain," I said. "You taught me everything I needed for this. It is time you actually rested, properly, the way the healer ordered months ago.""I intend to rest," he said, though the stubborn set of his jaw suggested he intended to define rest rather loosely. "Eliora has already threatened to hide my correspondence if I so much as glance at council business before spring.""Good," I said. "Listen to her."He studied me for a long moment, something proud and unguarded in his expression that he rarely allowed to show so plainly. "Your mother would have loved watching this. Watching you become exactly the Alpha this territory actually needs.""I wish she could have," I said quietly."She is here, in her way," my father said. "In the choices yo

Penelope's POV"You are supposed to be resting," Kael said, his deep, familiar voice breaking the quiet stillness of the depot office.I didn't immediately look up from the sprawling mahogany desk. It had been barely seventy-two hours since the ancient silver rites of our mating ceremony had concluded beneath the moonlit arches of the northern sanctuary, yet here I was, still clad in my dust-streaked travelling coat and sturdy leather boots, with three thick case files already fanned out across the blotter."I am resting," I replied smoothly, turning a page of the handwritten logistical intake notes. "Reviewing operational reports is deeply restful. For me.""We are meant to be on a honeymoon, Penelope," he said, stepping fully into the room.The late afternoon breeze followed him through the open door, carrying the faint, crisp scent of wild pine and damp mountain earth. He looked broad and grounded against the cedar-paneled walls, having shed the heavy velvet of his formal Alpha att

Penelope's POV"Hold still," Eliora said, adjusting the final pin in my hair with the intense concentration of a woman who had personally sworn nothing would go wrong today. "You are shaking.""I am not shaking.""You are absolutely shaking," Zaria said from across the small depot office, now transformed almost unrecognisably with soft draped fabric and warm lantern light. "It is allowed. This is a big day."I looked at myself in the mirror, hardly recognising the woman staring back, calm and radiant in a way I had not expected to feel given how the morning nerves had built all week."He is already out there," Natalia said, poking her head through the door. "Pacing. Eliora, your brother is going to wear a groove into the depot floor before the ceremony even starts.""Good," Eliora said. "Let him sweat a little. Builds character."A soft knock sounded, and Thomas stepped in carefully, Adaline just behind him, both dressed simply but clearly having made an effort for the occasion."You

Julian’s POV“You think a piece of paper gives you the right to say no to me?” I slammed my phone onto the bedside table.The screen cracked, but I did not care. Penelope had actually hung up on me. She mentioned divorce like it was a word she had any right to use. I paced the length of the hospital

Santiago's POV"Father, I made a mistake."Those words from Penelope cracked through the receiver, her voice thick and breaking. They cut straight through the peace I had spent three full years building. I sat on the heavy stone of the Blue Gem Throne, looking out over the endless miles of ancient t

Penelope’s POV“The results are ready. Your heart matches Hazel perfectly. Get to the pack hospital in thirty minutes for the transplant surgery.”My husband’s cold voice came through the phone line. Julian was the heir to the Blue-Claw Pack, but he sounded like a stranger. The words turned my blood
