Kaiden pov It has been a few weeks, and Eve came home from the hospital looking better. Her triplets are stuck there for a month or so. We called Eve into the office so we can all talk. "Hi honey, you look well rested," I motion for her to sit. Her mom is wheeled in, and Eve looks confused. "W
"Baby, are you okay?"Seth looks terrified as she shivers. "I think so," she sniffles sadly. "My belly hurts." I look down and see blood on the floor. My heart races as I stand. "Hospital now!!"I yell, and Seth jumps up and rushes out, heading to Fireside General Hospital. I feel fear for Eve and
Kaiden pov Good, you are all here," says a voice I don't want to hear right now. I turn and push Jasmine behind me as Cecilia stands, pointing a gun at us. "Stand down," I alpha order her. She sneers at us. "Your alpha shit doesn't work on me, lover. I can't be affected by that since you boote
"Cecilia, we gotta run," her dad rushes in behind her. "No, we have time. I messed up the code panel, and they can't open it. They won't get it open till it is too late, "she seems confident . "They almost got it, sweetie. We need to go now our window to escape is closing, "her dad begs her. So
Kaiden pov I lift Jasmine into my arms as we rush to find out about Seth. He had a chest wound, and even though we are supernatural creatures, wounds that severe can kill us. "Where is my son?"I try not to bellow at the staff. They all flinch. "Is he okay?"Jasmine tearfully asks. "Doctor Fra
"Baby, calm down. Our Seth is a fighter he doesn't quit," Ian says, kissing her forehead. She sniffles and looks at us. Jasmine rushes to hug her, and both start crying again. I sigh as I sit and watch. Grayson says something about food and how we all need to eat before he walks out. I feel his guil
Eve pov I watch Ian move around my room, and I feel guilt as he cleans up. "Ian, can you come hold me?"I feel bad for asking, but I need warmth and snuggles. I'm still stunned. My mom was a product of rape and so was I. "Can you move over? If your sore don't move much babe I can lift you",he
"I hope so. Eve needs him," I say, tucking Jasmine in. Cecilia is dead, but the men she hired don't know that, and I know they will be back. Rogues don't give up so easy. I sigh as I head to our kitchen for a snack. "Our men spotted her hired rogues twenty miles from Fireside. We got eyes on them,
Grace pov Good birthday," she declared with satisfaction. "Everyone's patterns were happy." "Yes, they were," I agreed softly. "Did you enjoy your party?" Sophia nodded sleepily. "The Balance liked it too. And baby brother." Her small hand reached out to touch my belly with surprising gentlene
I accepted the cake gratefully. Pregnancy cravings had given me an unprecedented sweet tooth, much to Sophia's delight. "How's our birthday girl doing?" "Currently explaining to her friends how the presents create a 'harmony pattern' when arranged properly," Liam replied, his expression filled wit
Grace pov **Six Months Later** The late afternoon sun cast a golden glow across the meadow behind Fireside pack house. Children's laughter filled the air as a small gathering celebrated Sophia's second birthday. The toddler presided over the festivities with a serene dignity that occasionally ga
Sophia considered the question seriously before shaking her head. "Not worry. It's the right pattern. The balance is happy about it." She adjusted another stone slightly, the golden light flowing to illuminate the new configuration. "Five is better than four. Stronger shapes." As if confirming her
I began to protest, but another wave of dizziness—milder this time—reminded me that Elena's medical advice wasn't merely precautionary. My body was indeed adjusting to significant changes, and pushing beyond its limits would serve no one. "Two days," I conceded reluctantly. "But I want regular upd
Grace pov Liam nodded, leaning forward to place a gentle kiss on my forehead. "Our children were never going to be ordinary, were they? Not with us as parents." I smiled as he looked into my eyes. Lucas was a strong werewolf with Alpha blood, and Sophia was a truth seer. Both were strong as hell.
"What happened?" I asked, my voice slightly hoarse. "You collapsed in the observation gallery," Liam explained, squeezing my hand. "Gave everyone quite a scare, especially the children. Tomas has been asking about you every fifteen minutes." I attempted to sit up, but Elena moved swiftly to prev
Grace pov Two weeks after the Children's Day revelation, the Balance Center hummed with renewed purpose. I had implemented a carefully structured program to continue engaging with the children who had shown connection to the Equilibrium, while the research division refined their understanding of h
Grace pov Liam, ever practical, focused on immediate implications. "How does this affect our response to reality-shapers? Does this expanded connection give the equilibrium greater range or power?" "Not exactly, power," I replied thoughtfully. "More like... expanded awareness. Greater understand
