Brynn pov

Her name on the screen was not a surprise.

I had been half expecting it since the conversation with Darius, not because I thought he would tell her about us but because Cassia had always had an instinct for the shape of things, a particular sensitivity to changes in the atmosphere around Darius that I had observed firsthand across the months since I came back and which I had filed away as a quality worth taking seriously. She would have noticed something. She would have found a way t

  • Pregnant and Rejected, Now She’s Back!   Seventy seven

    The pack healer’s office smelled of sage and wolfsbane, herbs meant to cleanse and heal, but all they did was make my stomach turn. I held the test results with fingertips that had gone cold, my wolf Lunara whimpering softly in the back of my mind.I couldn’t even recall how many times this had happened.Seven years into our mate bond, the entire Thornewood pack yearned for me to bear an heir, yet my womb remained stubbornly barren. The pack elders whispered about curses. The elder she-wolves muttered about weak bloodlines. My mother-in-law’s disappointment had long since hardened into something colder, sharper, like a blade she carried everywhere.Intimacy during the full moon when the mate pull was strongest, ancient herbal remedies passed down through generations of Thornewood Lunas, fertility rituals beneath the Moon Goddess’s light with the pack priestess chanting prayers over my belly, treatments from human doctors who knew nothing of wolves but promised miracles anyway, we’d tr

  • Pregnant and Rejected, Now She’s Back!   Seventy six

    The first time I thought about killing myself was the night of my mating ceremony.I married the Alpha of my pack, Ethan and I thought I had hit the jackpot. When we first found out we were mates, he was second in line and his brother Sebastian who happened to be my friend was to be the Alpha. Everyone congratulated me and told me how lucky I was to mate with a beta, but that didn’t matter to me, even if he was very poor, it wouldn’t have changed my love for him because his status didn’t matter to me. All I was after was his love. Lianna and Ethan, forever together.I couldn’t stop my tears as I closed my eyes reflecting on the past. I heard my wolf whimper and tried to comfort me.I was nineteen when I first met Ethan, he was studying abroad and had just graduated, and we quickly realized we were fated mates. Handsome and charming at 24 he instantly swept me off my feet, he was everything I dreamed of and my wolf and I couldn’t be happier. That night I thanked the goddess for bles

    Maria 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 at all of

    “Luna Ashford, I’m terribly sorry, but the hormone treatments failed again.”I held the test results in my hands, my fingertips growing cold despite the warmth of the healer’s office.I couldn’t even recall how many times I’d heard those exact words, delivered in that same apologetic tone that suggested my body was somehow defective.Seven years since Rowan Ashford had claimed me as his mate, seven years since I’d taken my place as Luna of the Silverpine Pack, and my womb remained stubbornly empty.The entire pack yearned for an heir, whispered about my failure in corners they thought I couldn’t hear, speculated about whether the Moon Goddess had cursed our bond.We’d tried everything the healers suggested, every hormone treatment and fertility ritual, every old wives’ remedy passed down through generations of wolf mothers.I’d endured the shame of scheduled intimacy timed to my heat cycles, swallowed bitter herbs that made me nauseous for days, submitted to painful procedures that le

    Brynn povI stared at the name for a long moment.I answered because I wanted to know what angle was coming. That was the honest reason. There was a version of not answering that felt like protection and a version that felt like avoidance and I had committed to telling the difference between those two things, and not answering Cassia felt like avoidance, the kind that left you wondering what she said to the air when you weren't there to hear it."Brynn," she said. Warm. Pleasant. Almost easy.Which meant she was at her most dangerous.I had seen Cassia in many registers across the months of this. I had seen her cold and I had seen her calculating and I had seen the brittle place underneath both of those that showed itself when she felt her position slipping. The pleasant register was the one she used when she had decided something, when she had assessed the situation and found an approach she was confident in, and she used it the way a person used a good coat, to look composed while t
