Harry couldn't move.

For weeks he had imagined this moment so many times that it no longer felt real. In some versions she was injured. In others she was angry. Sometimes she refused to look at him at all.

Never once had he imagined standing on a frozen mountainside simply staring at her from a distance while his entire world came to a halt.

Bella.

She was alive.

The wind stirred her dark hair as she crossed the ruined courtyard below. From where he stood, he couldn't hear her voice or see her

  • Now The Alpha Wants Me.   Chapter 52

    Bella froze the moment she stepped inside.Harry looked up from where he sat near the edge of the bed. His shirt was gone. For a second, neither of them spoke. The room suddenly felt much smaller than it actually was.The fire crackled softly in the corner. Outside, distant voices drifted through the window from the busy pack grounds.Harry's eyes lifted to hers. "Bella."She realized she was still standing in the doorway. Still staring. Heat crept into her face immediately."Come in," Harry said quietly.Bella quickly stepped inside and shut the door behind her.Harry watched her. "Shouldn't you be resting?"She didn't answer. Instead, she walked straight toward him. Harry's eyebrows lifted slightly. Bella reached for the fresh bandages sitting on the table beside him. Only then did understanding settle across his face."Oh.""You opened the wound." It wasn't a question.Harry glanced down. The edge of the bandage had darkened with blood again. "A little."Bella shot him a look. Harr

    The hand never reached Bella.One second she saw movement exploding from the trees, and the next Harry was there. His arm locked around her waist and pulled her hard against his side. The world tilted so suddenly that Bella barely had time to gasp before steel flashed through the falling snow.The attacker who had lunged for her never made contact. Harry's blade struck first. The man hit the ground.Bella's heart slammed against her ribs. Everything happened too fast. Snow flew beneath pounding boots. Voices echoed through the trees. Steel clashed against steel.Harry shoved her behind him. "Stay close." It wasn't a request.Another attacker charged. Harry met him head-on.For a moment Bella simply stared, not because she was frightened, but because she had never seen him like this before. Not at training. Not at pack gatherings. Not even during border patrols. There was something terrifying about watching a man fight when he had something to lose. Or someone.A shout erupted to their

    The cold hit Simon the moment he stepped outside.Snow drifted lazily through the darkness, catching against the ruined stone walls before disappearing into the night. Behind him, he heard the shelter door open again and knew without looking that Harry had followed.Neither of them spoke. There wasn't much to say.The mountain seemed quiet, but Simon had spent enough years surviving in places like this to know that silence could mean many things. Sometimes it meant safety. Other times it meant something was waiting.He crouched near the edge of the clearing and brushed a gloved hand across the snow. Harry watched him."What is it?" he asked after a moment.Simon studied the ground. The marks were already fading beneath fresh snowfall, but they were there. Someone had been here. Not long ago.He straightened slowly. "We weren't alone."Harry's attention immediately shifted toward the surrounding trees. "How many?""I don't know."The answer clearly frustrated him. Simon understood. It

    Bella disappeared through the doorway without looking back.For a moment Harry remained outside. The wind cut across the mountainside, carrying fresh snow through the darkness. It tugged at his coat and stung the exposed skin of his face, but he barely noticed. His eyes stayed fixed on the entrance.She hadn't forgiven him. She hadn't smiled. She hadn't even looked at him for very long. Yet she had still told him to come inside. That should not have felt like a victory. Somehow it did.Harry scrubbed a hand across his face before finally stepping forward. The warmth reached him immediately, not enough to chase away the cold buried in his muscles, but enough to remind him how exhausted he really was.The fire crackled softly in the center of the room. Bella sat closest to it with a metal cup resting between her hands. Simon was already against the far wall, his bow within arm's reach. Always within arm's reach.Harry lowered himself onto an empty section of stone across from them. Nobo

    "The truth is..."Bella looked down at the snow beneath her boots. For a moment, the only sound between them was the wind moving through the broken fortress walls.Harry waited, his chest tight."The truth is," Bella said quietly, "I think I would've stayed."Something inside him loosened. Not enough to feel relief, just enough to breathe.Then Bella lifted her eyes to his. "But that's the problem."Harry's expression changed immediately. Bella looked away first, toward the mountains, toward anywhere except him."I always stayed." The words landed softly. They still hurt, and Harry felt it.Bella laughed under her breath, though there was no humor in it. "I kept telling myself there had to be a reason." She rubbed her cold fingers together. "A reason for why you said what you said." Harry lowered his gaze. "A reason for why you acted the way you did." Bella swallowed. "I kept thinking maybe I just needed to be patient."The silence stretched. Harry couldn't look at her, because every

    Bella stared at him.For a moment, she genuinely thought she might be imagining it. The mountains had a way of playing tricks on exhausted minds. Too many sleepless nights, too much fear, too much uncertainty. But Harry didn't disappear. He remained exactly where he was, standing in the middle of the ruined courtyard with snow clinging to his dark coat and exhaustion carved into every hard line of his face.He looked different. Not physically — something else, something heavier.The shelter door creaked open behind her. Simon stepped outside, immediately noticing the tension hanging in the air. His eyes landed on Bella first, then followed her gaze across the courtyard until they settled on Harry. His expression sharpened, not with hostility, not even suspicion — just the caution that came naturally to someone who had learned to survive."What's wrong?" he asked quietly.Bella opened her mouth but couldn't find an answer.Harry's eyes shifted toward Simon, and the feeling that rose in
