DOMINIC’S POV

My hands were slightly trembling as I adjusted the sleeves of my shirt. Nervous. Anxious. Hopeful. I didn’t remember the last time I’d felt all of that at once. Maybe not since I was a boy, waiting for my father’s approval.

But today wasn’t about me. It was about them—Noah and Aria. My children.

My pups.

Their birthday. The first one I’d be present for, even if I had no claim to any of the ones before. I wasn’t there when they were born. I wasn’t there for their first cries, their first steps, the scraped knees, the nightmares, the tiny victories like tying shoelaces or reading their first books.

I missed it all.

And that truth—it burned.

Not because I didn’t want to be there, but because I could have been. If I hadn’t let my pride, my title, and some damned prophecy blind me… if I had fought for Olivia instead of doubting her. Instead of letting her break.

I leaned on the table, closing my eyes for a moment.

“I could’ve had a family… years ago,” I whispered to myself.

Where did my planning go wrong?She was winning.No—she had already won.And it burned.I shifted behind the trees at the edge of the pack guest house grounds, keeping a low profile.

  • My Mate Chose The Bitch Who Hurt Our Baby    Chapter 144 LITTLE DRAMA QUEEN

    OLIVIA’S POVAfter we cleaned up and dried off, we dressed and moved quietly so as not to wake the twins. Dominic helped mepack their bags and get their uniforms ready, something I never imagined I’d see him do. It was barely eight in the morning, and our house was already buzzing with the usual Monday madness—Noah complaining about mismatched socks, me trying to braid Aria’s wild curls while she squirmed, and Dominic attempting to coordinate breakfast while keeping an eye on the twins like a hawk.I was in the kitchen packing their tiffins when I heard a dramatic sigh followed by the thud of tiny feet stomping into the living room.“Daddy,” Aria said, dragging the word out as if it weighed a hundred pounds.Dominic looked up from his coffee, one brow raised. “Yes, princess?”She crossed her arms over her chest and stuck out her bottom lip in a perfectly exaggerated pout. “Do we have to go to school today?”I froze mid-sandwich. Here we go.“Yes,” Dominic said firmly, not even missin

  • My Mate Chose The Bitch Who Hurt Our Baby    Chapter 143 THE NIGHTMARE

    OLIVIA’S POVDarkness.It pressed down on me like a weight I couldn’t lift. My wrists ached, bound in heavy metal cuffs as I dangled from chains fixed to the damp stone ceiling. My feet barely touched the cold floor, my body swaying slightly every time I breathed too hard or whimpered in pain.The scent was all too familiar—blood, mold, and rot.I knew this place.No, no, not again…Panic clawed its way up my throat as I opened my eyes wider and the room came into focus. Cracked walls, flickering overhead light, rusted drain in the center of the floor—exactly like the last time.Exactly like the house I was taken to when I was pregnant with the twins.My heart thundered as realization dawned.I was back.But this time… my stomach was flat. There was no gentle swell of life inside me. I wasn’t pregnant. And that made it worse somehow—because it meant they had taken me again. They had done it once, and I had survived. But now, I wasn’t sure I could.Footsteps echoed down the hallway.No

    OLIVIA’S POV“I want you,” It doesn’t matter how many time he say those words, I will never get used to them.This time I can't hold in the whimper because I can't take it. The look in his eyes.. Nobody has ever looked at me with so much desire, not even Derek.Taking a deep breath to control myself, I whimper, "we can't. The kids, mom and James-"It's like he doesn't give a shit about what I'm saying because he presses his body against mine and crashes his lips on mine again. Again, my body betrays me, and I press myself against him. The feeling of his hands on my skin sets my body on fire. His hands roam all over me, from my neck down to my ribs, from my waist to my ass. He squeezes it hard and groans.The sounds he makes sends heat down between my thighs and I can't help but clench again.“Olivia”.... he whispers again. Again, his hot breath fans along my neck giving me goosebumps, he gently nudges the crook of my neck with his nose.“Are you wet for me?" he asks in a low, husky vo

  • My Mate Chose The Bitch Who Hurt Our Baby    Chapter 141 AFTER PARTY

    DOMINIC’S POVI should’ve waited. Should’ve stayed in my office or paced the damn packhouse until the heat cooled off in my blood—but I couldn’t.The ache was too deep. The craving too raw. My body, my wolf craved her.My wolf had been clawing inside me the entire evening, the last thread of patience snapped the moment Olivia walked away with Derek again. Even though I understood… even though she had been clear about wanting to keep things respectful between them until tonight ended, my instincts didn’t give a damn.She was mine.Not in the possessive, arrogant way I used to believe. Not in the way that had cost me everything the first time.But in the sense that she was the air I couldn’t breathe without. And damn that seductive invitation from her, I would be a fool to ignore it.I know what she wanted, and I wanted it more than her. I craved it, in fact.Tonight, once again, will be ours.So I drove faster than I should have. By the time I reached her street, the moon had already r

  • My Mate Chose The Bitch Who Hurt Our Baby    Chapter 140 HUSHED CONFESSIONS

    OLIVER’S POVThe hallway was hushed, painted in soft gold from the antique sconces that lined the walls, the shadows deepening with every second I spent alone with him. The stillness was almost deafening after the chaotic noise of the auction and the banter between Dominic and Derek. I should have been angry. I should have been storming away.But I wasn’t.Instead, I stood there… letting the silence settle between us like dust on old memories. Dominic was quiet too, his eyes fixed on me as if trying to read the thoughts I was keeping buried.“You said you needed to talk,” I said softly, hugging myself.Dominic let out a breath and looked away for a moment, gathering his words. “I know I messed things up earlier with Derek, and I think I am always going to mess when it comes to you. And the auction… that wasn’t just about competing. It was about everything I’ve kept buried. Watching you walk in with someone else, even after everything that’s happened between us… it did something to me.
