ROY'S POV

My father's office smelled like expensive whiskey and disappointment.

Mostly the disappointment was directed at me.

"Explain to me again," Pius Hunter said, swirling the amber liquid in his crystal glass, "how you managed to turn yourself from Braham's trusted ally into his obvious enemy in less than one year?”

I stood in front of his massive mahogany desk like a child called to the principal's office, my hands clenched at my sides. "I didn't plan for the human to…"

"The human." He cu

  • PREGNANT FOR THE ALPHA I NEVER MET    The spoils of treason

    ROY’S POVThe cheering from the sacred grove was deafening, a sickening roar of validation that made the blood boil beneath my skin. I stood near the edge of the tree line, my hands shoved deep into my pockets, my jaw clenched so hard my teeth ached. Every single wolf in this territory was falling over themselves to celebrate the 'sacred union,' completely blind to the fact that Braham was handing our entire heritage over to a woman whose family name was dragged through the mud on a global scale.They thought the fight was over just because her Spanish grandfather had pulled a legal stunt in the press. They thought the throne was sealed.They had no idea that Vivian and I were about to flip the board entirely.The plan was ironclad. Vivian had spent weeks mapping out the old tunnels, securing duplicate keys to the subterranean vaults beneath the packhouse, and bribing two low-level sentries to turn a blind eye to our equipment. We weren't going to fight Braham out in the open—that w

  • PREGNANT FOR THE ALPHA I NEVER MET    The double bond

    BRAHAM’S POVThe white-hot sting of my venom was still vibrating through our connected senses, a beautiful, agonizing current that bound her soul completely to mine. I lay spent beneath her on the heavy furs, my chest heaving as I tried to catch my breath, my arms wrapped loosely around Millie's waist. Her face was buried in the curve of my neck, her breathing shallow and rapid. The mark I had just carved into her shoulder was fresh and swollen, sealing her place as my Queen under the eyes of the old laws.But her wolf wasn't satisfied.Before I could even adjust to the sudden, overwhelming rush of her presence in my mind, I felt a shift in our link. The ancient, fierce blood of the Iberian packs running through her veins began to simmer. A true Luna of Silverpine Ridge heritage wasn't just a passive recipient of an Alpha's claim. She was an equal predator.Millie suddenly gripped my shoulders, her fingers digging deep into my skin with a strength that caught me entirely off guard. S

  • PREGNANT FOR THE ALPHA I NEVER MET    The mating ceremony

    MILLIE’S POVThe dawn didn't break with a burst of gold; it crept into the sky in shades of deep, bruised violet and charcoal grey. The air in the sacred grove at the edge of the pack’s territory was biting, carrying the thick, damp scent of pine needle earth and ancient stone.I stood at the perimeter of the ritual circle, my skin tingling under the weight of the traditional ceremonial attire. This time, there was no white silk or lace. I wore a heavy, midnight-black velvet tunic embroidered with thick silver threading along the collarbone, paired with a matching deep crimson cloak that pooled around my shoes. The fabric felt anchoring, a stark contrast to the vulnerability pulsing through my veins.The ceremony itself was quiet, stripped of the human pageantry of our first wedding. There were no cameras, no societal guests, and no superficial applause. Instead, the high elders of the North American Wolf Council stood in a semicircle, their ancient, heavy alphas' auras pressing agai

  • PREGNANT FOR THE ALPHA I NEVER MET    The rebound and the ritual

    MILLIE’S POVThe digital tide didn't just turn; it shattered against the sea wall my grandfather had built.By noon the following day, the venomous headlines about "blood money" and my supposed heartlessness were systematically buried under a massive, international wave of legal intrigue. The American media outlets, initially obsessed with the tabloid drama of Martha’s tragedy and parsing through the premature birth, were forced to pivot violently to keep up with the breaking news filtering in from Madrid, and the North American Wolf Council.INTERNATIONAL EXTRADITION SOUGHT: Silverpine Ridge Demands Sabrina Norman Face Spanish Pack JusticeRECLAIMING JUANA: How a Forgotten Pack Murder is Rewriting Werewolf JurisdictionA COMPLICATED LEGACY: Heiress Millie-Rose Harvey Unites Trans-Atlantic Packs in Quest for Mother's JusticeI sat in the living room, the heavy velvet curtains thrown wide to let the crisp sunlight stream over the polished center table.

  • PREGNANT FOR THE ALPHA I NEVER MET    Outside the hospital

    SILAS'S POVThe surgical waiting room was too bright. Fluorescent lights buzzed overhead, sterile and unforgiving. I'd been sitting in the same plastic chair for three hours, watching the clock tick forward with agonizing slowness.Martha was in surgery.The words still didn't feel real.When the doctors had pulled me aside yesterday morning to explain that her kidney was failing—that the suicide attempt had done more damage than they'd initially realized, that toxins had been accumulating in her system, that without emergency surgery she would die within days—I'd felt the world tilt sideways."How much?" I'd asked, because that was always the first question now. Everything came down to money."The surgery alone is approximately fifty thousand dollars. With ICU recovery, medications, follow-up care... you're looking at seventy to eighty thousand. Possibly more if there are complications."I didn't have seventy dollars, let alone seventy thousand.I'd lost my job three weeks ago. Too m
