Rhett

Harper and I work in renewed focus for another hour, identifying potential locations and coordinating with other trackers. But just as we're planning our next moves, my wolf suddenly snaps to attention.

Mate, Kian says urgently. Feel mate.

The bond flickers to life for just a moment—not the overwhelming intensity I've experienced before, but a weak, distant signal like a radio transmission from very far away. Through it, I can sense Brynlee's location, her fear, her desperate need for rescue.

"She's alive," I breathe, pressing my hand to my chest as if that will help me hold onto the fragile connection.

"What? How do you know?"

"Bond activity. She's... north of here. Maybe forty miles. Something with concrete walls, artificial lighting."

The description could fit dozens of facilities in the area, but it's more than we had before. Harper immediately starts overlaying our search grid with the directional information from the bond pulse.

"There," she says, pointing to a cluster of

    RhettThe black SUV disappears around the corner, taking my mate away for the second time in three months, and I stand in my doorway feeling more helpless than I have ever felt in my life.Maya clings to my leg, her small body shaking with sobs that tear at the aching wound in my chest. Through the mate bond, I can still feel Brynlee's presence, but it's fading with distance and the overwhelming terror of watching federal agents treat her like property to be collected.Government, Kian snarls with fury that borders on feral. They took our mate. Track. Hunt. Kill.My wolf's response is primitive and absolute—find the threat, eliminate the threat, reclaim what's ours. But the rational part of my brain knows that traditional pack solutions won't work against federal authority backed by legal warrants."Daddy," Maya whimpers against my leg. "Why did they take Mommy again? She was happy. We were all happy."That's what makes this so devastating. We were happy. We had rebuilt our life, stab

    Brynlee "The facility you were in was shut down," Rhett says, his voice carrying dangerous undercurrents. "Your research was ended.""The private facility was closed," Dr. Gorian corrects. "But the research continues under direct federal oversight. Your mate's case is particularly valuable because our manipulations after her dimensional exposure have resulted in unprecedented bond stabilization."Bond stabilization. He knows about the improvement in our mate bond, which means he's been monitoring me even after the rescue."I'm not going anywhere with you," I say firmly.Agent Martinez consults her paperwork with bureaucratic efficiency. "I'm afraid cooperation isn't optional. The Enhanced Individual Research Act provides clear authority for continued study of dimensionally affected persons in the interest of national security."That’s just legal language for making my imprisonment sound like protective custody rather than kidnapping."Where's my lawyer?" I ask, grasping for any lega

    BrynleeI wake up before dawn again, just like I have for the past three mornings, with the familiar wave of nausea that I've been trying to convince myself is just lingering stress from my captivity. But as I slip quietly out of bed and pad to the bathroom, I can't ignore what my body has been trying to tell me.The signs have been there for over a week—the morning sickness, the exhaustion that goes beyond normal recovery fatigue, the way certain smells make me feel queasy. More importantly, I missed a heat and my period is now two weeks late, which would be easy to attribute to trauma and stress if not for the other symptoms.Could I really be pregnant?The thought fills me with such intense hope that I'm almost afraid to confirm it. Rhett and I have been trying on and off for years to have a baby together. He's never made me feel inadequate for not conceiving for him, never shown anything but complete love and acceptance of Maya as his daughter. But I've always wanted to give him a

    Rhett After breakfast, we spend the morning in the backyard, discussing the logistics of converting a section of lawn into vegetable garden space. Maya has opinions about everything—the optimal location for tomatoes, whether we should grow corn (too tall, might shade other plants), and the importance of including flowers to attract beneficial insects.Watching Brynlee engage with Maya's enthusiastic gardening plans, I'm struck by how naturally she's slipped back into the role of mother and partner. Not the careful performance that characterized her behavior right after returning from the dimensional void, but a genuine eagerness to take part."We should get started on the raised beds soon," I observe, measuring the space Maya has designated for vegetables. "If we want to plant after the last frost, we'll need to prepare the soil in advance.""Can we go to the garden center this afternoon?" Maya asks. "I want to see what kinds of seeds they have.""Absolutely," Brynlee agrees. "We can

    RhettTwo weeks after the rescue, I wake up to something I'd almost forgotten existed: peace.Brynlee is curled against my side, her breathing deep and even in genuine sleep rather than the restless, drug-induced unconsciousness that characterized her first few nights home. The mate bond hums steadily between us—not the overwhelming intensity we experienced right after her return, but the warm, reliable connection that defined our relationship for years.This, I think, watching sunlight filter through our bedroom curtains. This is what we were fighting to get back to.The past two weeks have been a revelation in learning how to love each other again. Not the desperate, clinging affection of people afraid they might lose each other again, but the deliberate choice to build something stronger than what we had before.We talk now. Really talk, instead of the careful conversations that characterized our relationship after her return. When the mate bond fluctuates—which it still does occas

    BrynleeThe porch light is on, and I can see Maya's face pressed against the living room window, watching for our arrival. When she spots our truck, she disappears from the window and reappears at the front door before we've even parked."Mommy!" she shouts, racing down the front steps in her pajamas. "You're home! Are you okay? Daddy said you needed help but you're okay now!"I climb out of the truck on unsteady legs and catch my daughter as she launches herself into my arms. She's gotten taller in the few days I've been gone—or maybe I'm just more aware of how quickly she's growing, how much of her childhood I've already missed."I'm okay, baby," I tell her, breathing in the familiar scent of her strawberry shampoo. "I'm home, and I'm going to be okay.""Promise?" she asks, pulling back to study my face with the serious expression she gets when she's checking adult emotional temperatures."Promise," I say, and through the mate bond, I can feel Rhett's satisfaction that I'm making co
