What was I supposed to do? I could not just bolt out the door. My legs felt like lead as I lifted my eyes to Travis, my chest tightening under his steady gaze.

"Mr. Thorne, you have the wrong idea. That was not what my friend and I were planning," Danica started to say, her voice already unsteady.

Travis did not let her finish. He shifted his attention toward her and smirked, the expression sharp and knowing. Under his stare, we both felt exposed, like prey that had already been cornered.

"Is that so? Because according to what I read, your friend is looking for someone to play the part of her boyfriend and the father of her child. Tell me, where is the real father then?"

I snapped my head toward Danica, my heart pounding. She had told me she had not given him the details yet. Instead of explaining herself, she only lowered her gaze and whispered a soft, apologetic "sorry."

I bit my lip and looked back at Travis. There was no point denying it anymore. The truth was already laid bare be

    We went back to the condo in silence. The tension from the cafe followed us all the way home, sitting heavy in my chest. We did not talk about what happened, but I knew Danica had a million questions. I just could not bring myself to answer any of them yet. My thoughts were tangled, my head throbbing, and I felt like I might faint if I tried to explain everything at once."Aubrey, I’m going with you to the doctor tomorrow. You haven't had a checkup in a week," Danica said as we stepped inside the unit, her voice firm but gentle.I looked at her and nodded, grateful for her presence. "Thank you. I’m just going to lie down for a while."I walked straight to my room and collapsed onto the bed, not even bothering to change. My body felt heavy, as if the weight of the day had finally caught up to me. I stared at the ceiling, letting my thoughts drift to places I was not ready to face. Travis knew the truth now, and if he knew, it was only a matter of time before my father found out too.Th

    It had been three days since I last answered a call from my father or Fred. They knew I was at the condo, but they hadn’t bothered to come get me yet. That worked in my favor. The silence felt temporary, like a pause before something inevitable, but I was grateful for it. Danica and I still hadn’t found a man willing to be paid to play the role of the father. I was starting to lose hope.“Aub! Holy shit, he said yes!”I nearly jumped off the couch at Danica’s scream. I had been scrolling through my Facebook friends list, my thumb moving mindlessly, already convinced it was pointless. She burst into the living room and shoved her phone screen in my face, barely able to contain herself.“Look at him. What do you think?” she asked.The photo showed a guy who looked harmless and relatively innocent. Clean smile. Soft eyes. The kind of face people trusted without thinking twice.“Who is he?” I asked.“I met him at a club about four months ago. He looks like he has money. When I messaged hi

    I felt a wave of dizziness as the results were announced, my vision blurring for a moment as the words sank in. When Fred spoke, everything finally clicked into place. He had tampered with the results. He had used his Beta influence within the Thorne Pack hospital to protect our family name, just as he always did when things were about to spiral out of control.What I couldn’t wrap my head around was the fact that we were in Travis’s territory. Everyone here lived in fear of him. One wrong move and you were done. So how did Fred have connections in a place like this? And how was he able to slip a fake test through without anyone catching on?"See, Dad?" Fred said, his voice calm and convincing, as if this were nothing more than a business discussion. "It’s as Aubrey said. Travis isn't the father. We can't force this on her.""That doesn’t mean she’s off the hook," my father snapped, his eyes sharp and unyielding. "She still has to present the real father to us."Without waiting for a

    My father’s ultimatum left me hollow. It felt like the ground had vanished beneath my feet, leaving me trapped in a nightmare I could not wake from. I couldn't marry Travis. Eileen and her mother would make my life hell if I stole the man she’d spent years chasing. But I couldn't terminate the pregnancy either. This child was the only piece of real happiness I had left, the only thing that still felt mine."Dad... there’s no need for this. Travis isn't the father. We’ve... never even met before today. Please, just believe me. Fred... please," I begged, my voice breaking as I looked between them.My father’s gaze remained stony, unreadable. But I caught a flicker of pity in Fred’s eyes. He stepped forward and pulled me into a tight embrace, his grip firm as if trying to hold me together."Shh, don't cry, Aubrey. We have to do this to end the scandal," Fred whispered. "If you refuse the lineage test, the pack will assume Travis is telling the truth and you're just hiding it for Eileen's

    The world went silent around me. My knees turned to water as I stared at the man whose dark eyes were locked onto mine with a terrifying intensity. It felt as if the floor beneath my feet could give way at any moment.What was he doing? How could he drop a bombshell like that in front of my entire family?Every gaze in the room was a weapon. My father’s disbelief, my brother’s shock, and Eileen. Her eyes were twin pools of pure, murderous rage, fixed entirely on me. My heart hammered against my ribs so hard I could barely breathe, each beat echoing with dread."What?! How is this even possible?" my brother Fred roared. Out of everyone, he was the one I feared disappointing the most. He was the future Beta, the one who held the family’s honor together. Seeing his faith in me crack hurt more than the accusations.Eileen, still clutching a jagged piece of the broken vase, stopped sobbing. Her face contorted as she turned toward me. "Aubrey, is this true?!" she demanded. There was a flick
