His Dead Wife: No Longer the Surrogate Bride CHAPTER 341
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
His Dead Wife: No Longer the Surrogate Bride CHAPTER 339
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

No one breathed.The lantern light danced across the ancient stone chamber below, casting long shadows over the circular dais where the Seat rested in solemn silence.It was not a throne as everyone had thought.It possessed none of the extravagance kings demanded.No gold or any jewelries.No ornamentation.Its simplicity made it terrifying as it is only a dark stone worn smooth by countless hands.Everything in the chamber had been built around it. While above it is the estate, the western wing, the library and the galleries.Even Alessandro's renovations had existed only to protect this single object.Lorenzo removed his glasses slowly. “For four centuries,” he said as his voice echoed softly through the hidden passage, “no one has claimed the Seat by force."Matteo's eyes never left it."Then history is about to change." He said, his voice deep.His words had barely faded when Aurelio suddenly made a move."Now!"The command exploded through the chamber.The armed men behind him s

The cold draft continued to flow from the narrow opening in the western wall, carrying the unmistakable scent of damp limestone.Ancient cedar.Old wax.And something else.Smoke. Althea thought tightly.It was not fresh or recent.It carries the lingering trace of candles that had burned for decades.Someone had lived below.Or had continued returning there.No one spoke between them, arriving at the same realization that settled over the room like a weight.Dominic slowly reached toward the opening in the wall but stopped a few inches away."Enzo." He called out in a low voice.Enzo nodded immediately.“Got it, Dom.” He responded and motioned for the two guards.The two guards silently stepped forward, compact flashlights already in hand. One swept the beam through the narrow gap and found nothing and only darkness.The second guard crouched and examined the stone."No fresh damage." He informed lightly. He ran his fingers along the edge. "No pry marks as well as explosives. No forc

There was no violence.Only absence.Althea immediately noticed when Helena did not arrive for breakfast.As far Althea knows, Helena was never late but deliberately missing. There were no familiar footsteps, any soft knocks. She felt no presence that had, for years now, become the quiet spine of A

The garden behind the Devereaux complex was designed to deceive.At first glance, it looked harmless. The garden stretches wide into manicured grass, low stone paths warmed by the sun, a canopy of old trees filtering light into something gentle and almost domestic. Birds nested freely here

Michael chose a place neutral by design.It has no Devereaux crest nor a Valtieri influence.The place is a quiet restaurant overlooking the river. It is usually frequented by men who negotiated borders and buried consequences beneath polite conversation. A place where privacy was b

The gala ended without incident and that outcome alone should be an enough warning.In the Valtieri world, silence is never considered an absence.It’s a preparation.When the last remaining guests drifted out beneath chandeliers and polite smiles, the Valtieri machiner
