Selena.It was already late but for some reason I couldn't sleep so I picked up a book to read, hoping to fall asleep while reading. I had barely read past the first page when a knock on my bedroom door came so suddenly that I nearly dropped the book in my hand.Before I could answer, one of Denver’s guards stepped inside looking tense.“Doctor Selena,” he said quickly. “It’s Alec.”My stomach dropped instantly.“What happened?”“He’s having another seizure. They are in alpha Denver''s room.”Everything inside me froze for half a second before panic slammed violently into my chest.I was already moving before he finished speaking.“A doctor is with him?” I asked breathlessly while hurrying down the hallway.“Yes.”Fear twisted harder inside me anyway.All I could think about was Alec shaking violently on that bed.My pulse thundered painfully as I rushed toward Denver’s room without thinking.The door was already partially open.I pushed inside immediately.“Alec—”The words died in
Selena.The first thing I noticed when I saw Jameson was his battered face and blood.Not a little blood.A lot.A sharp breath left me before I could stop it.“Oh my God.”Jameson looked up slowly from the doorway, one side of his mouth split badly enough that dried blood still stained his jaw. Bruises darkened the skin around his eye, and his knuckles looked swollen like someone had repeatedly smashed them against concrete.My stomach tightened instantly.“What happened to you?”Jameson stared at me for a second.Then he gave a short humorless chuckle.“You know what happened.”Silence fell immediately between us. The memory of his earlier text; Denver wants to see me. flashed through my head.Jameson leaned weakly against the wall beside the entrance of his room before shaking his head slightly.“I was a fool, honestly.”“Jameson—”“No.” Another quiet laugh escaped him, though this one sounded more exhausted than amused. “I actually thought I had a chance with you.”Guilt twisted
Denver.After I left Alec's room, I couldn't get Selena off my mind. The tension in her eyes before the guard arrived to say they had found Alec, it was real, natural. And though, she had lied that she was looking for Jameson, I knew it was a lie from how she avoided my eyes when she said it. And despite every other thing that she said, I couldn't help but notice Alec's scent on her. And unlike when I pick Alec's scent on Talia's body, this one was different. It was almost as if Alec's scent had found a home. I didn't ask her because I didn't know how to. without upsetting her. So, I asked them to bring the only person who could fix the puzzle in my head. Jameson. By the time Jameson arrived at my office, I had a lot of things I wanted to ask him. Jameson stepped inside carefully after the guard shut the door behind him.For a moment, neither of us spoke.Then he sighed deeply, already looking exhausted."I was told you sent for me, Alpha,” he said calmly. “Yes, I did," I repl
Selena.Several moments after Alec left the room, silence settled too heavily around me. Especially after Maxwell fell asleep. I stood by the door, my hand resting against the handle he had touched, while my thoughts spiraled faster than I could slow them down.Twins.Denver could never find out.The fear came instantly, sharp enough to make my stomach tighten.Not because I thought he would hurt them. That somehow felt worse.Because if Denver ever realized Alec wasn’t my only child… if he ever found out there was another boy identical to him, another child carrying his blood walking around unnoticed—He would never let us disappear again.And maybe a part of him would even believe he had the right not to.My chest tightened painfully at the thought.Before I could think myself out of it, I grabbed the hotel phone from the bedside table and called reception.The woman answered politely, but I barely heard half of what she said.“I need to change rooms,” I said quickly.“Of course, m
Denver.By the time Talia reached my room, I was already on my second drink.The whiskey burned going down, but it didn’t do a damn thing to quiet my head.Christopher’s voice still echoed through my head, repeating every word.Your acclaimed baby mama, Talia informed me herself that the boy was born human.If she really said those words to him like I was beginning to believe she had, then it only meant one thing.She wasn't Alec's mother. Just like I have suspected from the beginning. I stared at the amber liquid in my glass for a moment longer before the knock finally came.Right on time.“Come in.”The door opened slowly.Talia stepped inside carefully, her eyes moving across the room before settling on me. For a second, she hesitated near the entrance like she wasn’t sure whether she actually wanted to be there.It was the first time she had ever set foot inside my private quarters.I watched her take it in quietly.The dim lighting.The untouched fireplace.The heavy silence sit
Selena.By the time I got back to the hotel, my entire body felt numb in a way exhaustion alone couldn’t explain.I barely remembered leaving the hospital.Barely remembered the elevator ride.Everything inside me still felt trapped somewhere in that room, replaying the same words over and over until they stopped sounding real.You had two healthy boys.Alive.My hand tightened unconsciously around the keycard as I reached the hotel door.For a second, I just stood there staring at it.Then I forced myself to move.The room was quiet when I stepped inside.Too quiet.The lights near the bed were still on, casting soft gold across the room, and immediately, my eyes found Maxwell sitting stiffly on the mattress.Something about him looked wrong.Not sleepy.Not relaxed.Startled.My heartbeat picked up instantly.“Max?”He looked at me quickly, then toward the far corner of the room.Toward the curtains.Fear slid sharply through my chest.“What’s wrong?”He opened his mouth—Then closed
Selena.They returned me to my room without ceremony.No apology. No explanation. Just a pair of guards walking me back through halls I knew too well, their footsteps echoing as if nothing out of the ordinary had happened. As if I had not been locked away beneath the ground and forgotten.The door
Denver.The door closes behind her with a soft sound that lingers longer than it should.I remain where I am, my gaze fixed on the grain of the desk, a copy of the contract still lying open where I placed it. I do not move. I do not exhale. Years of command have taught me how to sit with decisions

Selena.By the time I reach my room, my hands are still shaking.Not from fear.From him.From the way Alpha Denver’s fingers had barely brushed my skin and yet left a burn that refuses to fade. From the restraint in his eyes, the battle he fought so openly frightened me more than Christopher’s crue
