DNA Test Report.

All four of them read the first line through the plastic window, and all four of them stopped breathing.

Lillian lunged for it.

Walter was faster. He tore it out of my hand, and when she came after it he shoved her off without looking at her, and he turned to the last page.

The paper crumpled in his fist.

He'd gone very quiet. When he turned his head, his eyes were solid gold and full of blood.

"Lil. Li. An."

He ground it out through his teeth, one piece at a time.

  • I Found My Alpha Mate’s Second Family   Chapter 20

    When I got to the hospital, Dominic had just woken up. His face was still flushed from the fever, and there was an IV in his hand.He saw me, and his eyes lit up."Mer. You came. You finally came to see me."I stopped at the foot of his bed."Dominic, is this your idea of a plan? Getting yourself sick so I'd feel sorry for you?"The light went out. He was white to the lips."No. Mer, I'm sorry, I wasn't trying to make you come. I only wanted to see you a little longer."I looked down at him lying there hurting, and all I felt was tired, and a kind of stale irritation, like a song that won't stop."I didn't have to come here," I said. "I came because this big romantic gesture of yours has turned into a problem for me. I wasn't worried about you.""We've been apart for three years. I've let all of it go, Dominic. I want my life, the one I've got now.""I don't want to see you again."His mouth moved. There was so much pain in his face that it was hard to look at. Nothing came out of him.

    DNA Test Report.All four of them read the first line through the plastic window, and all four of them stopped breathing.Lillian lunged for it.Walter was faster. He tore it out of my hand, and when she came after it he shoved her off without looking at her, and he turned to the last page.The paper crumpled in his fist.He'd gone very quiet. When he turned his head, his eyes were solid gold and full of blood."Lil. Li. An."He ground it out through his teeth, one piece at a time.Lillian scrambled backward. "It's fake! Walter, she forged it. She's trying to destroy me, don't you see that?"Felicity had started to cry, for real this time. "Dad, it can't be true. She set this up. Don't let her do this to us!""Dad, calm down," Julian said."Calm down?"Walter's chest was heaving. He reached into the envelope, pulled out a photograph, and shoved it in Lillian's face."Then what's this?"Lillian, with her blouse half open. A doctor's office. A man in a white coat.Julian and Felicity bot

    The afternoon after the party, I got home from the office and found four people waiting outside the gates.They'd parked across the driveway. When I got out of my car, I saw that nothing about them had changed."Well, look at you, Mercy." Lillian got in first, with her eyes blazing. "Three years playing princess with the Hales, and you can't pick up a phone? After everything this family did for you, you ungrateful little bitch."Felicity's smile stopped well short of her eyes."You should think about it, Mercy. Mom and Dad took you out of an orphanage. Otherwise you'd have spent twenty-odd years cold and hungry. You really shouldn't forget that."Walter nodded heavily."Whatever else, we're still family. You've found the Hales, fine. Don't forget Greyridge. Come home more often."Julian held out a folder."This is a trade agreement. Give it to Caleb. You'll handle the Greyridge side from now on. Understand this, Mercy. The better we do, the better you'll look over there."I looked at t

    "Mer."The voice beside me was low and scraped raw. I turned around.His eyes were dark, and there was a lot going on behind them, all of it held down by force.He stopped in front of me, and his hand started up toward my arm, like it had a habit of doing.Caleb caught his wrist an inch away and squeezed."You've got some nerve, Cross."The blood came faster and pattered on the floor. A wolf his age should have closed a cut like that already.He didn't seem to know he had a hand. He looked only at me."Mer, please. Let's talk."People had begun to look. I could hear the whispers starting."All right," I said.I walked out ahead of him, onto the empty terrace at the far side of the ballroom."What do you want to talk about?"He looked as if I'd hit him."Three years," he said. His voice shook. "Mer, I've been looking for you for three years. I've been to so many places."I looked at him.He'd lost a lot of weight. The whites of his eyes were all red veins, and the skin below them was br

    I came in on my brother's arm with the whole room watching.Theo was already walking toward us. "Lia. It's been too long."I smiled, and I was about to answer when Felicity cut across the floor and planted herself in front of me."Mercy, what are you doing here?"Her eyes went to my hand on Caleb's arm, and a nasty light came into them."So you landed Caleb Hale. Is that what you've been doing for three years? Being somebody's kept woman?"Caleb's face went dark."A filthy mind sees filth everywhere. I knew you had the mind, Ms. Thorne. I didn't know you were blind as well."He tipped his head toward me."Look at her. Look at me. Anybody with eyes can see she's the Hale daughter.""That's impossible." Felicity's color went red and white and red again. She couldn't take her eyes off the necklace. "You can't be. There's been some mistake.""The Hales don't make that kind of mistake," Caleb said. "You, on the other hand, should watch your manners and keep your nose out of other people's b

    Three years later, at a hotel on the coast, Felicity Thorne stood at a mirror choosing her jewelry.Julian knocked and came in."Almost time. The Hales are bringing out the daughter tonight, the one they found three years ago. Be charming. If we can get in with the Hales or the Mercers, it changes everything for Greyridge."He looked at her in the mirror."Caleb Hale and Theo Mercer are both still unmated, too. If one of them takes to you, don't waste it.""I know, Julian."She picked through the handful of pieces she had left and fastened a diamond necklace around her throat.Three years ago, she'd have called diamonds that size tacky.Things had changed for the Thornes.When Dominic came back from Venice, he went straight in front of the Council to reject her. Both families begged him. Both families threatened him. Nothing moved him.It got ugly. The Stonecrest and Greyridge alliance, the one that was never supposed to break, came apart one trade agreement at a time.And then there w
