The pregnancy report felt warm in my hands, as if it was alive.

I had read it six times already standing in the bathroom with the door locked and my heart doing something ridiculous in my chest. And every single time, the result was the same.

Positive.

Three years of hoping quietly, of telling myself I wasn’t doing it on purpose, that I wasn’t keeping track of the calendar, that the ache I felt every month wasn’t what it was. Three years of loving a man who looked through me more often than he

    2:47 am, again. I groaned as I rubbed my tired eyes, noticing the brightness from my laptop screen casting harsh shadows across the studio. I should have gone home hours ago, but this client’s deadline was tomorrow, and the dining room rendering still wasn’t quite right. The chandelier needed to be repositioned, the wall color adjusted just a shade warmer. Mrs. Patterson had been very specific about wanting “welcoming but sophisticated,” and after seven years of clawing my way up in this industry, I’d learned that details mattered.My head felt heavy. Just a few minutes, I told myself, folding my arms on the desk, just to let my eyes rest.Within what felt like a second, I was back in my old bedroom at the Steele estate, moonlight streaming through the French windows. The silk sheets felt cool against my flushed skin as I lay there, heart racing. I knew I shouldn’t be thinking about him like this, but in dreams, the rules didn’t apply.The door opened softly. Dominic stood in the door

    Exile would be a mercy.” He leaned against his desk. “Out there, you’re a lone wolf. You’d be dead within a week. At least if someone owns you, you’ll be fed. Sheltered.” His smile widened. “Used, yes. But alive.”No. I can’t let myself become someone’s prostitute. I didn’t come all this way just to end up anywhere. “I . . . I’d rather be exiled.” I said shakily.“Shut up!” He slapped my face making me yelp and stumble back. He clearly hadn’t expected me to choose exile. “You think you have a choice? Well let me tell you something, I had already decided to sell you before you I even found out the moon goddess would give you to me as a mate of all people. And now that you’ve humiliated me, I’ll make sure he knows he can do whatever he likes with you. You filthy murderer.”My eyes burned and the tears threatened to return, but I refused to let them fall, I had to stay strong and figure out a way to survive this. “Who? Who’s buying me?”“Does it matter?”“Yes!”He considered me, then pu

    The mop bucket hit my face before I saw it coming.Cold, filthy water drenched me, soap and grime and things I didn’t want to think about. I gasped, choking, as laughter echoed through the servants’ hallway.“Oops.” Sasha stood over me, the empty bucket dangling from her hand. “My mistake.”I stayed on my knees, water dripping from my hair, my auburn curls plastered to my face. Three days as an Omega, and I’d already learned the most important rule, don’t fight back. Fighting back only made it more entertaining for them because they came in groups.“What’s wrong, murderer?” servant, Ella, kicked my cleaning brush across the floor. “Cat got your tongue?”‘Murderer.’ That’s what theyy all called me now.Three days ago, I had a family. Parents who loved me and even a best friend. A home and a future.Three days ago, I came back from the woods to find my house consumed in flames. My parents dead. My adopted sister Davina dead. My best friend, Hilda was no where to be found. Everything I’d

    I stood there, surrounded by the torn pieces of my pregnancy test, my hand pressed against my stomach where our pup was growing, where my wolf was already fiercely protective.I stood there, staring at him, waiting for him to take it back. Waiting for him to realize what he’d just said but he didn’t.“Thorne—” My voice broke. “You can’t mean—”But he wasn’t even looking at me anymore. He was already moving toward the door, his jaw set, his eyes distant, his wolf clearly focused on tracking Solene’s scent.“Thorne, please!” I grabbed his arm, desperate, ignoring the dangerous rumble that came from his chest at my touch. “Just listen to me. Please. We can—”He shook me off like I was nothing, his strength so much greater than mine that I stumbled backward. Like I was dirt on his sleeve.“I don’t have time for this.” His voice was cold, empty. “Solene’s out there alone and upset because of you.”“Because of me?” The words came out as a sob. “I didn’t do anything! I just came home—”“You

    I clutched the test results against my chest as I stood outside our house, trying to steady my breathing. Three years of trying, of hoping, of praying every single month only to be disappointed.But not this time. This time, the test was positive. I was pregnant with Thorne’s child.A smile broke across my face, tears blurring my vision. This was it. This was what would finally fix us. What would make him look at me the way he used to, back when we first became mates. Back before everything fell apart. Before Solene.I pushed the thought away, Solene was dead. And now I was carrying Thorne’s pup, This would change everything.My wolf stirred inside me, hopeful and excited. Pup. We made a pup. Mate will be happy.I practically ran up the front steps, my heart pounding with excitement. I couldn’t wait to see his face when I told him. Couldn’t wait to watch the shock turn to joy, to feel his arms around me for the first time in months. Maybe years.The front door was unlocked. I pushed i

    Isla’s POVMaria immediately bowed deeper, recognizing the direct order from her Luna. “Yes, Luna Thornwood.”She led several other omegas past my father, who stood there fuming but ultimately powerless against my mother’s direct command.“You’re completely unreasonable!” he shouted at my mother’s back, but his voice lacked real conviction.Ultimately, facing my mother’s furious Luna presence, his own resolve faltered completely.He didn’t dare openly confront her when she was like this, not with pack hierarchy so clearly on her side.Soon, several omegas arrived carrying armfuls of exquisite boxes and bags, designer labels visible on nearly every item.They deposited everything at Selene’s feet in a pile that represented months of generosity and affection.My mother pointed at the scattered items, her voice cold as winter. “Take your things and leave our pack house. You’re no longer welcome here.”Selene’s eyes instantly filled with tears, her lower lip trembling as she looked around
