Ciara’s pov

I remained quietly in Dax's arms as he carried me back toward our room, my head resting against his shoulder while everything he had said continued replaying inside my mind.

For the first time in what felt like forever, I didn't feel completely helpless.

The truth was still buried somewhere in darkness. My family was hiding things. Inara had almost died. People were hunting us and secrets seemed to be crawling out from every corner of my life.

Yet somehow, every time the ground bene

  • Pregnant For My Father-in-Law   Chapter 190: The Spy He Already Knew About

    Ciara’s POVThe room became so tense that even breathing felt too loud.Dax moved closer to the bed slowly and controlled but that control only made him look more dangerous. He sat beside me without taking his eyes off my face, his dark gaze calm in a way that scared me more than anger would have. Inara was still standing with that small knife in her hand, awkwardly frozen between pretending she had not been ready to stab whoever entered and pretending she had not just heard me confess that Jasper sent me to Shadowfen as a spy. For a moment, nobody spoke. The silence grew, stretched, tightened around my throat until Dax finally leaned back slightly, his voice low and terrifyingly even.“A spy,” he said. “Really?”My lips parted, but nothing came out. How was I supposed to explain that? Where was I supposed to begin? With Jasper? With Valerio? With the little box he had given me before coming here? With the fact that I had entered Dax’s world carrying someone else’s orders while alre

  • Pregnant For My Father-in-Law   Chapter 189: The Game

    Ciara’s pov. I took a breath wondering if perhaps there was still something that could harm me if I try to say the truth Inara must have noticed because he took my hand and squeezed it then said, "Don't worry about any attack, your baby daddy asked the best healers and whatever those people with weird senses of fashion are called to check you thoroughly, so you are safe, nothing can harm you or our baby." She explained and I nodded then rubbed my small swell I smiled and my eyes moved toward my bandaged finger before I forced myself to continue. “I... I had wanted to tell you that Valerio is alive.” For a second, she didn’t react and then her face went completely blank and my beating heart eased a bit because nothing painful happened to my body Inara blinked. Then she stared at me. “I’m sorry, what?” “Valerio is still alive.” She leaned back, eyes narrowing. “Ciara, babe, I love you, but are you sure that medicine didn’t drag you into one of those strange pregnant

  • Pregnant For My Father-in-Law   Chapter 188: Awake

    Ciara’s POV I woke up to the bitter taste of medicine and Inara hovering over me with a spoon like an angry nurse who had been denied proper training but decided violence could replace education. For a few seconds, I only blinked at her, confused and weak, my body heavy against the pillows while the room slowly came back into focus. The curtains were half drawn, soft light spilled across the bed, and the faint scent of herbs and Shadowfen medicine clung to the air. My left hand had been wrapped carefully, thick white bandages covering the finger where the ring had nearly burned through my skin, and the moment I noticed it, everything came rushing back so fast my chest tightened. The balcony. Inara’s voice. Jasper’s name. Valerio was ali.. then pain, heat, smoke and screaming. “Inara…” My voice came out hoarse and dry, and her face immediately softened even though she tried to hide it behind that usual rude expression of hers. “What happened?” “You passed out after Asher

  • Pregnant For My Father-in-Law   Chapter 187: The Darkside Of Asher

    Dax’s POVAsher stood near the table, staring down at the ring like it was something alive and poisonous, while I sat beside Ciara’s bed with one hand wrapped around hers. She was still unconscious and that alone was enough to make something violent keep moving beneath my skin, clawing and snarling, demanding blood,a name or someone to tear apart until this fear left my chest. I kept my face calm because Inara was sitting on the other side of the bed looking pale and shaken, her eyes fixed on Ciara like she was afraid blinking would make her disappear, but inside, I was anything but calm. My woman was lying too still beneath the blankets, her breathing steady only because healers had me forced stabilizing Current through her body, and if not for Asher ripping that cursed thing from her finger with Alpha power, I might have been sitting beside a corpse instead of my mate.The ring sat on the table where Asher had dropped it earlier after burning his palm to remove it. It looked har

  • Pregnant For My Father-in-Law   Chapter 186: The Ring That Burned The Truth

    Ciara’s pov.My eyes burned and I hated it because crying would not solve this, but how was I supposed to process that my father might not have been my father, that the man who had controlled my life, sold my marriage, caged me and possibly ordered Inara’s death might have been wearing a place that didn’t belong to him?“Did you find when the swap happened?” I asked, forcing the words out.Inara shook her head. “No. That part was buried too well. But I found enough to know the current head is an imposter or something close enough to one, and the Dagon family you grew up in is no longer what it used to be. Someone hollowed it out from inside and left the name standing because names have power. People obey the Dagon name. Banks open for it. Men kill for it. Families marry into it. If you control the face at the top, you control everything beneath.”A cold shiver ran down my spine. That made sense in the worst possible way. The Dagon empire was too large to attack openly, too old and dee

  • Pregnant For My Father-in-Law   Chapter 185: The Man Wearing My Father’s Face

    Ciara’s POVI stared at inara waiting for answers, the morning breeze drifted across the balcony, moving through her red-streaked hair and cooling the coffee steam between us, but the air suddenly felt heavier and darker, as if the beautiful sitting area outside my room had turned into a war room. I sat across from her with my hand resting over my stomach, watching her face carefully while she stared at the laptop like it had personally offended her, and when she finally spoke, her voice was lower than before.“When you asked me to investigate Valerio’s death, I did,” she said, tapping one nail against the side of the coffee cup. “And I didn’t just do the normal surface-level search where you check old police reports, family announcements and official statements. I went deep, Ciara. Old Dagon archives. Private money trails. Security logs from the week before his death. Deleted communications. Border movement records. Everything that should’ve been buried under ten layers of expensiv
