CALLIE'S POV

Renan's apartment was smaller than I expected. Neat, efficient, with minimal decoration. Very him.

"Sorry about the mess," he said, though there was no mess to speak of.

"It's fine." I set my purse down on the small table by the door. "Renan, we need to talk."

He tensed immediately. "That's never a good way to start a conversation."

"It's not bad." I turned to face him fully. "But Leo's right. We've been dancing around this for too long."

"Callie..."

"I love you." The words came out steadier than I expected. "I said it in the car because a three-year-old called me out, but I'm saying it now because I mean it. I love you, Renan. I have for a long time."

He stared at me, and for a horrible moment, I thought I'd made a mistake. That I'd misread everything between us.

Then he crossed the room in three strides and kissed me.

It wasn't soft or tentative. It was hungry and desperate and full of everything we'd been holding back for years.

"I love you too," he breathed against my

    CALLIE'S POVA few days after the phone recovery confirmation, Renan and I sat in his apartment organizing evidence files for Will Reid.It felt strangely domestic…me curled up on his couch with my laptop, him at the dining table with stacks of financial records spread out, both of us working in comfortable silence.This was what being together looked like. Not just the passionate moments, but this: quiet collaboration, shared purpose, choosing to spend our time side by side."These payment records are interesting," Renan said, flipping through bank statements. "Sabrina worked for June for years. Steady fifty-dollar weekly payments from 2000 all the way through early 2004."I pulled up the spreadsheet Millie had shared with us…the one from her mother's locked filing cabinets. "Right. Legitimate household assistant wages. Nothing suspicious there.""But then look at this." He slid over another set of documents. "Starting in January 2004, there's a separate set of payments. All marked w

    BRAHAM'S POV"Braham, there are monsters in my room."His small voice pulled me from sleep. I blinked in the darkness and found him standing in the bedroom doorway, his dragon book clutched to his chest, his eyes wide with fear."What kind of monsters, buddy?" I asked softly, careful not to wake Millie. She'd finally fallen asleep an hour ago after tossing and turning, her mind clearly stuck on waiting for test results."Big ones. With teeth and claws. They were chasing with me." His voice trembled.I slipped out of bed and scooped him up, feeling how small he was in my arms despite how fast he was growing. "Just a bad dream. Come on, let's get you back to bed."In his room, I tucked him back under his covers. The nightlight cast soft shadows across his face…shadows that made him look so much like Millie, but with my eyes staring back at me."Want to tell me about it?" I asked, settling on the edge of his bed.Leo nodded, his grip on the dragon book loosening slightly. "I was running.

  • PREGNANT FOR THE ALPHA I NEVER MET    Futile attempt

    BRAHAM’S POV I smelled her the moment she stepped out of that beat-up Ford.Martha's scent; cheap perfume, rage, and desperation…cut through the park like a blade. My wolf surged forward, claws scraping at the inside of my skin."She's here," I murmured into the comm unit hidden in my ear."Copy that." Renan's voice crackled back. "North side, moving toward the playground."I kept my position behind the large oak near the parking lot, watching through the gaps in the leaves.Around the park, six of my pack sentinels blended into the afternoon crowd; A jogger. A couple on a blanket. A man walking his dog. All connected through the bond, alert and ready.Millie sat on the bench with Callie, both facing the playground. Their backs were to Martha. Perfect targets.Leo went down the slide, his laughter carrying across the grass. Completely oblivious to the monster watching him.Good. He should never know how close she came.Martha moved closer, adjusting her baseball cap. Her hands trembl

    MILLIE'S POVI woke up to the throbbing pain in my arm where Sabrina had cut me. The bandage was clean but the pain was constant, a reminder of how close I'd come to sharing my mother's fate.Braham was already awake, standing by the window with his phone pressed to his ear. I caught fragments of his conversation."...Yes, the police found it last night... No, the screen is completely shattered but the internal memory might be intact... they'll send it to a forensic data recovery specialist..."My heart jumped. The phone. The confession.I sat up too quickly and my arm protested. Braham noticed immediately, ended his call and rushed to the bed."Easy. How's the arm?""Painful. But manageable." He sat on the edge of the bed. "The screen of your phone is destroyed, but the internal components might have survived the fall. They've sent it to a specialist who works with them. If the audio recording is still there...""We'll have her confession. On record." Hope flickered in my chest. "T

  • PREGNANT FOR THE ALPHA I NEVER MET    A good fight

    MILLIE'S POVThe knife trembled in Sabrina's hand, but her eyes were wild with desperation."You're just like her," she spat. "Just like June. Always thinking you're better than everyone else. Always in the way."My heart hammered against my ribs. "Sabrina, put down the knife.""Why? So you can run to the police with your lies?" She took a step toward me. "I've spent twenty years building a life. I'm not letting you take it away.""You already lost it. Martha's in jail. My father's in jail. You're broke and alone." I backed toward the door, trying to keep my voice steady. "Killing me won't change any of that.""No. But it'll feel good." Her laugh was hysterical. "You think you're so clever, coming here, trying to trick me into confessing. But I've dealt with cleverer people than you.""Like my mother?""Your mother was weak! She would have forgiven your father eventually. Would have taken him back. But I couldn't risk it." The knife was closer now. "She had to go. And if you're not ca

  • PREGNANT FOR THE ALPHA I NEVER MET    Millie being Millie

    MILLIE'S POVI waited three days.Three days of pretending everything was fine. Three days of playing with Leo, having dinners with Braham, acting like I wasn't planning anything.Three days of lying.I hated myself for it. But I hated the idea of waiting months for an investigation that might not even yield results even more.Will Reid had called earlier today with an update. He'd tracked down one of the letter writers…Eleanor Ross, now Eleanor Morris. She lived two states away but remembered my mother well. She'd agreed to give a statement.One witness. After three days. At this rate, it would be next year before we had enough to even consider pressing charges.I couldn't wait that long.So this morning, after Braham left for pack business and Leo was safely occupied with Callie, I got in my car and drove to Sabrina's apartment.I'd found the address easily enough. She was living in a run-down complex on the east side, the kind of place with peeling paint and broken security cameras
