A Mother's Touch

Mickey pov

The Silverstone pack house felt different with Lily in it—quieter somehow, as if the entire building was holding its breath around the traumatized girl who had been thrust into their supernatural world. Mom stood in the doorway of the guest room they'd prepared, watching as Lily sat curled on the edge of the king-sized bed, looking impossibly small and fragile against the mountain of pillows Emma had enthusiastically arranged.

"The room's too big," Lily said quietly, her voice barely audible in the spacious chamber. "I'm not used to having so much space." I was talking with dad but listening in on my mate and Mother's conversation. I was worried Lily may panic again, so I was waiting for her to have another panic attack.

Mom's heart must have clenched as she understood what Lily wasn't saying—that after months of confinement and abuse, the luxury of a safe, comfortable room felt overwhelming rather than welcoming. I could tell by her face it was hur

    The Weight of Truth Mickey pov After helping Lily into dry clothes and settling her on the couch in the family room with hot tea and one of mom's softest blankets, I found myself facing a conversation I had been dreading since the moment I had first caught her scent. The emotional breakdown in the shower had cracked open defenses that had been keeping Lily's worst memories locked away, and now she seemed compelled to share details that made my wolf pace restlessly beneath my skin. "I need to tell you everything," Lily said quietly, her voice steady despite the tears that had only just stopped flowing. "Not because you're asking, but because I can't carry these secrets alone anymore. And if we're really... if this mate bond thing is real, then you deserve to know what you're taking on." I settled beside her on the couch, close enough to offer comfort but careful not to crowd her. "Lily, you don't have to—" "Yes, I do," she interrupted gently. "Because part of me is still waiti

    Breaking Point Mickey pov I had been pacing outside the guest bathroom for twenty minutes, my enhanced hearing picking up sounds that made my chest tight with helpless concern. What had started as normal shower sounds—running water, the quiet movement of someone trying to wash away the day's trauma—had gradually shifted into something that set every protective instinct I possessed on high alert. Lily was crying. Not the quiet tears I had seen her shed earlier, but deep, wrenching sobs that spoke of someone finally allowing themselves to feel the full weight of months of abuse and fear. "Mickey?" Mom's voice came from behind me, soft with maternal concern. "Is everything okay?" "She's breaking down," I said quietly, my hands clenched into fists as I fought the urge to break down the bathroom door. "Mom, she's in there falling apart, and I don't know if I should give her privacy or make sure she's safe." Through the door, we could hear Lily's voice, muffled by water and walls

    Small Bites and Overwhelming Love Lily pov The Blackwood family kitchen was warm and inviting, filled with the scents of fresh bread and Tara's homemade soup, but I sat at the large wooden table picking at a bowl that might as well have contained sawdust for all the appetite I could muster. Across from me, Emma chattered enthusiastically about school and her friends, seemingly oblivious to the way my hands trembled slightly as I lifted the spoon. "And then Jessica said that her brother could shift into his wolf form already, but I told her that's impossible because he's only fourteen and most wolves don't shift until they're at least fifteen or sixteen," Emma was saying between bites of her grilled cheese sandwich. "Although Mickey shifted when he was fifteen, so maybe it's different for really strong wolves." I paused with the spoon halfway to my mouth, another piece of the Blackwood family puzzle clicking into place. "Shift into wolf form?" Emma's eyes went wide as she real

    Hidden Wounds Mickey pov We were halfway to the Silverstone pack house when Lily suddenly went rigid in the passenger seat beside my dad Hunter, her small frame beginning to tremble with what looked like the onset of shock. "I can't breathe," she whispered, her voice tight with panic as her hands moved to clutch at her chest. "I can't... everything's spinning." Dad immediately pulled the truck over to the side of the road, his Alpha instincts shifting into crisis mode as he took in Lily's rapidly deteriorating condition. Behind them, I was already moving, climbing over the seat divider with supernatural grace to reach my mate. "Lily, look at me," I said gently, my large hands hovering near her face without quite touching, remembering her flinch response to sudden contact. "You're safe. You're not in that house anymore." "I know, but I keep thinking about the cameras," Lily gasped, her breathing becoming more rapid and shallow. "They were watching everything. Every time I ch

    A Father's RageHunter pov The tactical situation was under control within minutes—European operatives subdued, Davidson secured in pack custody, and the immediate threat neutralized. But my attention was entirely focused on the small figure huddled against my truck, and what I saw there made my carefully controlled Alpha composure crack like ice under pressure. Lily Chen was tiny—maybe five feet tall and probably weighing less than my teenage daughter Emma. But it wasn't her size that made my hands clench into fists. It was the careful way she held herself, the practiced stillness of someone who had learned that drawing attention meant inviting pain. And most of all, it was the fresh bruise blooming across her delicate cheekbone where Davidson had struck her less than an hour ago. "Dad," Mickey said quietly, moving to stand beside me as we both looked at the girl who had become the center of a supernatural conspiracy. "This is Lily." I stepped forward slowly, the way I might appr
