His Dead Wife: No Longer the Surrogate Bride CHAPTER 343
The first twenty-four hours passed, becoming forty-eight and then seventy-two.Inside Blackstone's Medical Wing’s Intensive Care Unit, time lost its meaning. The days were no longer measured by sunrise or sunset. They were measured by blood pressure, oxygen saturated, heart rate as well as laboratory values.One more stable hour.One less medication.One quieter alarm.Every small victory mattered because every setback threatened to erase it.The first week was cruel.On Monday, Althea’s blood pressure had finally stabilized enough for Helena to reduce one vasopressor.By Tuesday afternoon, she came with a fever. It immediately set the ICU into a hive of activity.Blood cultures were done as well as chest X-rays. Antibiotics were added to her IV tube and the ventilator is being adjusted.By Wednesday, her fever broke that made the entire medical wing breathed again.Thursday, her oxygen levels suddenly dropped.A mucus plug.Bronchoscopy.Another tense hour.Friday, Althea tolerated s

The light above the door of Operating Room One is still on five hours later.Inside the room, no one had spoken unnecessarily for nearly an hour. The frantic urgency that had consumed the room since Althea's arrival had given way to meticulous precision.The chest cavity was clean and her pulmonary artery branch had been repaired.The torn lung had been reconstructed.The abdominal injuries had been controlled.No further active bleeding remained.The suction canisters, once filling with crimson blood, now collected only irrigation fluid.For the first time that night, the monitors surrounding them had become almost peaceful.Beep...Beep...Beep...Steady but still not normal.But steady.Helena inspected every repair one final time."Suction." She instructed patiently.Michael cleared the field.Benjamin leaned closer, examining every suture line.No bleeding.No hidden leak.No expanding hematoma.He slowly released the last vascular clamp.Everyone watched nervously.One second.T

The doors of Operating Room One slammed shut.Outside at the hallway, a husband was breaking apart.Inside, where all the medical staff gathered, there was no room for emotion.Only discipline.Only precision.Only time."Scalpel." Helena called, her hand never wavering. The instrument immediately was placed into her palm before she finished the word. “Pressure?”The trauma lights flooded the operating table in brilliant white, erasing every shadow.Althea lay motionless beneath them.The oxygen ventilator hissed rhythmically.The cardiac monitor painted jagged green lines across the screen.Beep...Beep...Beep...Too fast.Too weak."Eighty-two systolic." Came the information after the question. "Heart rate one-forty-eight. Four units packed cells running. Massive transfusion protocol active."Helena nodded."Prep chest and abdomen simultaneousl

The helicopter cut through the night like a black arrow.Inside, no one spoke as they only listened and watched the rhythmic beeping of the cardiac monitor filled the cabin.Benjamin pressed another unit of blood through the rapid infuser.Michael adjusted the oxygen mask before checking Althea's pupils once more."BP?" He asked."Eighty over forty." Benjamin replied grimly, quickly glancing at the monitor."Pulse?""One-forty." Benjamin answered without looking up. "We're losing her."Dominic's entire body went rigid and he held Althea's cold hand against his forehead."No." His voice cracked. "You're staying with me."Althea's eyelids fluttered weakly and her lips moved beneath the oxygen mask. “Dom... I’m here." She managed to say and then stopped as she struggled for air. “…Don’t… let go…”He squeezed her hand harder."Never."Every light on the lawn blazed white against the darkness outside Blackstone and the emergency entrance is as well as the entire hospital wing is on full al

The chamber trembled as the ancient mechanisms groaned beneath four centuries of stone.The blue rings surrounding the Seat continued to pulse rhythmically, bathing the chamber in an ethereal glow.Dominic never looked back even just once.Althea lay motionless in his arms, her blood soaking through his shirt, warm against his chest.Every second mattered."She's going into shock." Seraphina warned firmly, keeping firm pressure on both wounds as she ran beside him. "Dominic, don't stop! Do you hear me?! Don’t stop!""I won't." He answered, his voice was raw and broken.He climbed the narrow staircase three steps at a time, refusing every offer of help.Enzo sprinted ahead of him, shouting and clearing the passage while Rafael and Lia secured every corridor leading toward the manor.The surviving men who had served Matteo had already dropped their weapons.Not one dared pursue them after witnessing Matteo’s fall.Not after watching the ancient chamber awaken.The battle for the Seat wa
His Dead Wife: No Longer the Surrogate Bride CHAPTER 338
The chamber suddenly glowed.For one suspended heartbeat, no one moved.They stared as the ancient channels carved into the stone floor shimmered with pale blue light, radiating outward from the Seat in concentric circles.Even Matteo stood frozen, his chest rising heavily as he stared at the illuminated chamber.Lorenzo lowered his head."The Keepers..." He whispered, “have awakened.""NOOOOO!!!!" Matteo roared.The spell shattered.Matteo lunged at Dominic with a ferocity born not of discipline, but of desperation.The two men collided again. They crashed into one of the massive stone columns. Ancient dust exploded into the air as Dominic completely absorbed the impact before driving Matteo backward with a crushing shoulder strike."You don't deserve it!" Matteo snarled as he swung wildly. "It should have been mine!"Dominic blocked the punch, countering with a hard strike to Matteo's ribs.The older man staggered but refused to fall.Years of obsession had become his strength.Madn

Nicholas knew something was wrong because everyone was quiet.It wasn’t the good quiet that is like when his Mama will read him stories and the house smelled like clean sheets and warm milk. This one is quiet and fells tight. It’s like when he held his breath underwater for too long and his chest w
His Dead Wife: No Longer the Surrogate Bride CHAPTER 80
Althea acutely felt the bunker humming in restrained violence.It wasn’t in the weapons or the screens or the men standing guard. It was in the space between Dominic and Michael, where every glance carried the weight of unfinished wars.She stood near the central table, arms folded tightly against

The SUV did not slow until the city had changed.Glass towers gave way to narrower streets, then to industrial sprawl. Rows of warehouses, shuttered storefronts, concrete that smelled of oil and rain came into view.Sirens echoed somewhere far behind them, but none followed. That so
His Dead Wife: No Longer the Surrogate Bride CHAPTER 78
The hospital was not supposed to feel like a battlefield.Althea stood scrubbed and gloved beneath surgical lights, hands steady, voice calm as she issued instructions. Around her, the operating room moved with precision. The monitors are humming, instruments passed without error, a choreo
