Chapter 34: Elara's Pov

I wake up reaching for someone who isn't there.

My hand is outstretched across the empty bed, fingers curled slightly, grasping nothing. The room is dark. The nightlight from Landon's room makes a thin line under my door. I am awake and my heart is going too fast and my skin is too warm and the dream is still playing behind my eyes even though I am already trying to stop it.

Not a nightmare.

That would have been easier.

I sit up and press the heels of my hands against m

  • Pregnant After My Triplets Mate Rejected Me   Chapter 53:

    Chapter 53: Ronan's POV "You've checked your phone four times in the last ten minutes."I look up. Rafe is across the hotel suite, perfectly still in the armchair, watching me with the particular patience he deploys when he's decided I need to hear something I don't want to hear."I'm waiting on a supplier confirmation," I say. "For the watchtower materials.""It's been five days. There is no watchtower materials order."I set the phone down on the table, face down, with more force than necessary. "Fine. I'm checking if she's texted.""I know.""You didn't need to make me say it.""I think you needed to say it," Rafe says. "You've been pretending to be busy for five days. It's not convincing anyone."I drop into the chair across from him and put my head back against the cushion and look at the ceiling. Five days. No fort, no training, no dinners, no goodnight texts about bridge inspections. Five days of nothing, which I agreed to, which I understand the reasoning for, which I would

  • Pregnant After My Triplets Mate Rejected Me   Chapter 52: My Daughter is slipping away slowly

    Chapter 52: Mira's Pov Four days.I have been counting because counting is something to do with my hands when I cannot do anything with the rest of myself. Four days since the photograph arrived. Four days since Elara stopped checking her phone openly and started checking it in the bathroom with the door closed, where she thinks I cannot hear the specific quality of disappointed silence that follows.She has not mentioned Ronan, Ryker, or Rafe by name once in four days.This is the part that worries me most. Not the silence itself,silence I understand, silence has its uses, silence can be a place to gather strength rather than a place to hide. But the specific shape of this silence, the deliberate erasure of their names from her vocabulary, the way she refers to "the situation" or "everything that happened" instead of saying who did what... that is not gathering strength. That is a retreat.I have seen this version of my daughter before. I built a clinic shift around this version for

  • Pregnant After My Triplets Mate Rejected Me   Chapter 51: Why did I believe them

    Chapter 51: Elara's Pov I wake up regretting the porch, not regretting it cleanly nothing about this is clean but lying in the grey early light with the photograph still on my nightstand next to the letter and the honeysuckle, I think about what I said into the dark at two in the morning and I feel something close to panic.*I believe you about the photograph.*I said that. Out loud. To Rafe, standing in the trees, after everything that happened yesterday after a photograph arrived at my work with no explanation and cracked something open that I had spent six weeks carefully not examining, after three men stood on my porch and admitted they had been managing me instead of trusting me, after I sat on the floor of my own hallway like I was eighteen again.And then at two in the morning I walked outside in my coat and told him I believed him.*Why did you do that,* I ask myself now, in the unforgiving light of morning. *Why did you give him that so fast.*I sit up. The cottage is quie

  • Pregnant After My Triplets Mate Rejected Me   Chapter 50: Lets give her space

    Chapter 50: Rafe's Pov "We give her space."Ronan looks at me like I have suggested something painful, which is because I have. "How much space.""As much as she needs." I am at the window of the hotel suite. The Silverveil night is clear outside. "No showing up at the cottage. No texts unless she initiates. No fort days, no training sessions, no dropping by the clinic." I pause. "She asked us to leave. We leave.""We leave the territory?" Ronan's voice is sharp."No." Ryker, from his chair. "We stay. We said we weren't leaving and we meant it. But Rafe is right, we don't push. We give her the space to process this without us standing on her doorstep waiting for her to be ready."Ronan puts his hands through his hair. "And if she decides she's done? If she uses the space to close back up completely and we just... wait and watch it happen?""Then that was always going to be her right," I say. "We don't get to decide how she processes this by controlling the conditions. That's exactly

  • Pregnant After My Triplets Mate Rejected Me   Chapter 49: Should I Forgive Them?

    Chapter 49: Elara's Pov I heard a knock on the door around 8pm, I know it's them before I reach the bottom of the stairs. Three sets of footsteps on the porch, I have learned the sound of them the way you learn the sound of things that matter, without deciding to. Ryker's weight evenly distributed, deliberate. Ronan slightly heavier on the right foot. Rafe barely audible at all.I stop at the bottom of the stairs.Mom appears in the kitchen doorway. She looks at me. I look at her. She steps back into the kitchen without saying anything, which is the most useful thing she could possibly do right now.I cross to the door.I put my hand on the handle.I do not open it.On the other side, Ryker knocks again... twice, measured. Not urgent. Not demanding. The knock of someone who is prepared to wait."Elara." His voice comes through the wood clearly. "I know what Vivian sent. I know what it looked like."I press my back against the door and slide down until I am sitting on the floor with

  • Pregnant After My Triplets Mate Rejected Me   Chapter 48; What should we do

    Chapter 48: Ryker's POV "Say that again."Elias does not flinch. He has worked for me long enough to know that the stillness that comes over me when something is genuinely wrong is more dangerous than the versions that make noise. "A courier was tracked from the Kane estate this morning. Paid in cash through a third-party service , clean, no direct connection. He made one delivery. Clinic on the east residential road." A pause. "Addressed to E. Voss."The hotel suite is very quiet.Ronan is across the room, halfway through a sentence he has stopped finishing, his face doing something I recognize the moment the implications stack up faster than words can follow.Rafe is at the window."What was in the delivery?" I ask."We don't have confirmation. But the timing of the courier's route and the service he used suggests a single flat item. Document sized." Elias hesitates. "The same service has been used by Kane-affiliated accounts three times in the last six months. Once for a legal d

    Chapter 43: Elara's Pov "You're stirring that counter-clockwise," Ronan says from behind me. "Does that matter?""It matters to me," I say. "Go sit down.""I'm helping.""You're narrating. That's different.""I could be narrating and helping simultaneously. I'm multitalented.""Ronan." I point the

    Chapter 42: Third person Pov Landon announced this to River at six-fifteen in the morning, sitting cross-legged on his bed in the grey early light before anyone else in the cottage was awake. He had thought about it carefully, the way he thought about all important things, which was thoroughly an

    Chapter 40: Elara's Pov "You're not eating."I look down at my plate. The rice has gone cold. The stew is untouched. I have been moving things around with my spoon for ten minutes and apparently this has not escaped anyone."I'm eating," I say."You're relocating," Mom says. "That's different."L
