Third Person's POV

Mortimer stared at the screen, his eyes locked on Seraphina's face.

She was sitting at the conference table, the picture of clinical calm. No fidgeting, no nervous tells.

She didn't speak unless the panel asked for technical specifics.

When she did, her voice was a steady, logical scalpel, dissecting the details with a precision that left zero room for doubt.

He remembered driving to the healing center last night for this exact reason.

But he'd let the "puppy" text and his own

    Third Person's POVCaldwell didn't answer her question. Instead, he changed the subject. "I'm downstairs. I bought a bunch of fireworks. Want to come down and play?"Caldwell's subdued tone reminded Seraphina of how rough things were for him at the Blade pack, so she agreed."Sure. Give me a minute. I'll bring Dash with me.""Alright." A note of genuine delight crept into Caldwell's voice.Seraphina gave Dash a light pat on the rump, threw on a jacket, and headed downstairs.As soon as she stepped out of the building, she saw Caldwell in the distance, holding a bag filled with all kinds of handheld fireworks.The two of them, with Dash trotting happily alongside, left the neighborhood and walked to an open space a short distance away. It was far enough from the main road to safely enjoy small handheld fireworks.They sat down on a set of stone steps.Caldwell pulled out a few sparklers and handed them to Seraphina. "Here

    Third Person's POVMeanwhile, the Blade pack's packhouse was as lively as it was every year during the holiday.This year was even more special with Abigail finally home after more than twenty years away. Edwin couldn't have been happier.To celebrate her return, the pack had gone all out, making the feast grander than ever.After dinner, the whole family stayed in the living room with Edwin, chatting and watching TV. Warm laughter filled the house.Only Mortimer stood alone on the balcony, his phone clenched tightly in his hand.The icy wind swept over his feverish skin, doing nothing to quell the inner turmoil. All he could do was endure, waiting for that restless heat to subside.He stared blankly at his phone. The message he'd sent a while ago still had no reply.Deep within his mind, his black wolf, Barton, lay curled up, letting out soft, mournful whines.Mortimer knew he shouldn't reach out to Seraphina again. The

  • Ex-Mate Wants Me Back   Chapter 277

    Third Person's POVSeraphina snapped her mouth shut. She looked up, totally caught off guard."What?""Now that you've broken the mating bond with Mortimer. Would you be happy if I said I liked you?"Caldwell watched her dead-on, a sudden, sharp intensity flaring in his wolfish eyes.The unexpected question left her completely speechless.After a long, heavy pause, she finally found her voice. "Are you trying to comfort me, too?"Before he could answer, she let out a quick laugh. "You're just like my mom. It's only a broken bond, Caldwell. It's not the end of the world."She met his gaze earnestly. "Seriously, don't play the mom card. I honestly don't care about Mortimer anymore, and I'm not sad about breaking the bond."Caldwell stayed silent. He just stood there, quietly watching her try so hard to prove she was perfectly fine. His gaze grew a little distant, and a dull, physical ache settled deep in his chest.

    Third Person's POV"Sera."The door to her room opened, and her mother, Thomasina, slipped inside."Mom."Thomasina's eyes dropped immediately to the dissolution certificate. Without a word, she stepped forward and wrapped her daughter in a gentle hug."Don't be sad, honey."Resting her face against her mother's shoulder, Seraphina managed a helpless smile."I'm not sad, Mom. Honestly. It's just... ending something this massive leaves you feeling a little hollowed out," she said.Thomasina didn't buy it for a second.Seraphina had loved Mortimer for over a decade. They'd sworn a pact in front of the entire wolf pack. Even if she truly wanted to let him go, there was no way she could just bounce back this fast.Those feelings ran deep. Tearing herself away from a mate after ten years—from someone woven into her very existence—caused real, agonizing physical and emotional pain.How could she be fi

    Third Person's POVSeraphina reached out and gently took his trembling hand. "I know you want to avoid Mortimer and Edwin. It's okay that you didn't come by. I don't blame you."Caldwell stared down at her fingers wrapped around his. The truth was right there on the tip of his tongue, but he choked it back at the last second.Instead, he looked back up at her with a self-deprecating smile. "I guess I'm the fragile one here, needing you to comfort me."Seraphina felt a rush of relief as he finally seemed to calm down.She really couldn't understand why he was so worked up over missing a few visits to the Healing Center. He was acting as if he had caused the crash himself.Mortimer stood silently outside the hospital room.With a wolf's sharp senses, he easily picked up on the heavy sadness lingering inside.Through the glass, he watched Seraphina reach out and take Caldwell's hand. Even with her own injuries, she was trying so h

  • Ex-Mate Wants Me Back   Chapter 274

    Third Person's POVCaldwell didn't answer right away. He watched Edwin's trembling lips and let out a cold smile. "Too scared to admit it?"Edwin closed his eyes, his eyelids fluttering. "It wasn't me."He opened them again, meeting Caldwell's gaze with absolute certainty. "I told your mother back then that I had nothing to do with his death. But she chose to walk away from the pack—and disown me as her father—rather than believe me."Caldwell let out a short, harsh laugh. "Who are you trying to kid? My dad was just a low-level street thug back then. Who else could he possibly piss off so badly that they'd torture him to death and dump his body in the middle of the ocean?"He stepped closer. "It's a little too convenient that he turned up dead right after you sent your guys to threaten him."Caldwell's eyes flashed a faint, angry red, his intense hatred bleeding through."You're supposed to be a respected elder, but you do

    Mortimer's POVThe Swedish aurora writhed across the sky like a fever dream. Those eerie green lights felt like cold snakes, strangling the breath right out of me.
