Elara's POV

The cab driver was good. He wove through two lanes, cut behind a lorry, and when I looked back the third time, the black car was gone, swallowed somewhere between the traffic and a red light it must have caught.

I let out a breath so long it felt like it had been sitting in my chest since Clara's flat.

"Thank you," I said, when we pulled up outside the building. I handed him double what the metre read and didn't wait for his response before stepping out and walking quickly throu

  • Father's Bestfriends: All Yours, Alpha Daddies   139. A serious responsibility

    Elara's POVI couldn't stop the tears. They kept coming, soaking through my father's shirt as I clung to him like a lifeline. My shoulders shook with the force of my sobs, and every breath felt like it was being dragged from somewhere deep and broken inside me. The pain wasn't just physical anymore. All of it felt like it was crumbling, and I didn't know how to hold the pieces together.Kael and Draven lingered near the bed, their eyes fixed on me with such raw concern that it made my chest ache even more. I could feel their wolves reaching out to mine through the bond we shared, trying to comfort me, trying to soothe the pain. But even that felt overwhelming.Kael cleared his throat softly. "We'll give you two some space," he said quietly, his voice thick with emotion he was barely holding back.Draven hesitated, his hand twitching like he wanted to reach for me. But then he nodded, his jaw tight, and followed his brother toward the door.The moment they left, the room felt emptier.

  • Father's Bestfriends: All Yours, Alpha Daddies   138. How pathetic

    Elara's POVMy heart nearly leapt straight out of my chest when I caught sight of Nora standing by the door like some kind of vengeful spectre. The words I'd just carelessly spoken echoed relentlessly in my head, taunting me, mocking me for my stupidity. I forced what I hoped was a convincing smile onto my face, desperately trying to salvage whatever pitiful scraps of dignity I still had left after everything that had happened."Why do you appear in my room so randomly?" I asked, my voice coming out weaker than I'd intended, betraying the anxiety coursing through my veins.Nora's eyes narrowed at me with an intensity that could have frozen fire itself, her gaze sharp. The weight of her stare pinned me to the bed, making me feel even smaller than I already did. "Because I don't want you to die on my sons and cause unnecessary mayhem just because you're so damn weak and incapable of taking care of yourself."The words struck me like a slap to the face. I opened my mouth to respond, to d

  • Father's Bestfriends: All Yours, Alpha Daddies   137. She's stable

    Draven's POVMy heart pounded in my chest as we sprinted through the hallways toward Elara's room. All I could think about was her, lying in that bed, writhing in pain, her eyes burning with whatever poison that bitch had given her. This meant that those that were sent to look for the antidote had returned and delivered it to the healer.The healer was standing right in front of her door when we reached him, his face grave and worn. He looked older than usual, the lines around his eyes deeper, and I knew whatever he had to say wasn't going to be good."Your Majesties," he said, bowing his head slightly. His voice was steady, but I could hear the exhaustion in it."What is it?" I demanded, unable to keep the desperation out of my voice. "What's wrong with her?"He straightened, meeting my eyes with a seriousness that made my stomach drop. "The poison she was given is called Lupine purple flower. It's very deadly, but it takes time to kill its host. It works slowly, eating away at the b

  • Father's Bestfriends: All Yours, Alpha Daddies   136. Torture

    Kael's POVRage coursed through my veins like molten fire as I watched the guards torture the bastard strapped to the chair. Every scream that tore from his throat only fueled my fury. My wolf snarled and clawed at my insides, demanding blood, demanding justice for what he'd tried to do.This wasn't some random intruder. This was one of our own guards. Someone we trusted. Someone who had sworn an oath to protect our people, our home, our mate.And he'd tried to kill Lyra.I clenched my fists, my claws threatening to break free as I watched another lash of the whip tear across his back. Blood splattered across the stone floor, and the metallic scent filled the air, making my wolf howl with satisfaction.But it wasn't enough. It would never be enough."Who sent you?" Draven's voice echoed through the dungeon, cold and deadly. He stood in front of the man, his eyes glowing red, his entire body vibrating with barely contained rage. "Why the hell are you after Lyra's life?"The guard cough

  • Father's Bestfriends: All Yours, Alpha Daddies   135. Burn it down

    Rowan's POV I tapped my pen against the desk as I sat in my office, quite impatient. I watched the man standing before me—Jack, one of my most reliable men. Or so I thought."Speak," I commanded, my voice cold as ice. "Tell me what happened."Jack shifted uncomfortably, his eyes darting away from mine. "We managed to get someone to deliver the poison, Alpha."My lips curved into a satisfied smile. "And?""But our spy got caught," he continued quickly, his voice trembling. "It's going to be much harder to get to Elara now. She's well protected in their realm and now that this has happened, eyes will be on her."The pen stopped tapping.I rose slowly from my chair, the smile vanishing from my face. "You never do anything well, do you, Jack?"He flinched, taking a step back. "Alpha, I—""Leave," I barked, not wanting to hear his pathetic excuses. "Get out of my sight."He didn't hesitate. He turned and practically ran from my office, the door slamming behind him.I paced the length of

  • Father's Bestfriends: All Yours, Alpha Daddies   134. I'm so sorry

    Elara's POV A figure hunched over Lyra and I was enraged. The figure didn't even see me coming.My hands found their shoulders, and I flung them with a strength that startled even me. The person slammed into the wall with a sickening crack, crumpling to the floor. They scrambled to their feet, stumbling toward the door, but Draven was faster.His fist connected with their chest, and the person collapsed, unconscious before they hit the ground.My heart hammered in my ears, my breath coming in sharp gasps. I stared at the crumpled form, my hands trembling.Behind me, Lyra sobbed.I turned, and the sight of her broke something inside me.She was curled up on the bed, her body shaking violently, tears streaming down her face. Blood stained the sheets beneath her, fresh wounds marking her skin."Someone just tried to kill me again," she choked out, her voice raw. "They just—they just—"Her words dissolved into sobs, and I felt my chest tighten.Kael stepped forward, his expression hard.

    Elara's POV "Stay with you?" I repeated, my voice wavering slightly.The idea was both terrifying and tempting. Being around them constantly, in their space, where I'd be surrounded by their scent and their presence was something I would very much love. Staying with Clara meant putting her in dang

    Kael's POVWe both froze like statues as the knocking continued, cutting off the warm pleasure I'd been sinking into. I cursed under my breath and glanced up at Draven, who was still watching us with an entertained smirk curling at the edge of his mouth. The bastard pulled out his earphones, clearl

  • Father's Bestfriends: All Yours, Alpha Daddies   26. Are you ashamed of us?

    Elara's POV The word "no" shot out of me before I could even think twice, and both of them stared at me with such identical expressions of surprise that I almost laughed despite myself. "Ashamed of us?" Kael asked, his icy blue eyes not leaving my face. There was no anger in it, just a look of wo

  • Father's Bestfriends: All Yours, Alpha Daddies   23. Not without you

    Elara's POV I panicked immediately, jerking my hand away from Draven's and scrambling to wipe my face. There was already a lot of drama going on at the office because of me, I didn't want to further complicate things, but I guess all that worry faded away the moment I saw who walked in. "Whew,
