Pregnant for the ruthless billionaire vampire Chapter 16
ELENA'S POVI stood there holding the document for a long time.Nobody spoke.The only sound in the cabin was the wind outside and the occasional creak of the old stone walls and my own breathing, which I was having to think about consciously in a way I normally didn't.Morgana.My grandmother.The woman who had opened the gates. Who had stood in a candlelit hall with an iron key in her closed fist and smiled the smile of someone who had been waiting for a very specific moment. Who had watched forty-seven people burn and called it necessary.My grandmother.I set the document down on the table.I walked to the window.I stood there with my hand on the cold glass and my forehead almost touching it and I breathed.Behind me I heard the room carefully not doing anything. Not moving. Not speaking. The particular quality of stillness that a room full of people produced when they all understood simultaneously that the person in the middle of it needed a moment and that offering anything bef

ELENA'S POVNobody moved for a moment.Lucian stood just inside the doorway with his hand pressed against his chest and his eyes burning gold and his face doing something I had never seen it do in two years of living under his roof.Showing pain.Not the controlled, performative kind. The real kind. The kind that came from somewhere a person couldn't manage or contain no matter how much practice they had at managing and containing things.Seraphine stepped forward."That's far enough," she said. Her voice was completely level and her hand was on her blade and she meant every syllable of it.Lucian's gold eyes moved to her. Something crossed his face that might have been recognition. "Seraphine of the Nightshade guard.""The same," she said. "And you'll stay exactly where you are until she tells you otherwise."He looked back at me. The gold in his eyes was still blazing, still clearly costing him something to sustain, but underneath it the uncertainty from the doorway had sharpened i

ELENA'S POVI came back to the cabin with a gasp.Not the violent crash of the first vision. Something more controlled this time, like surfacing from deep water instead of being thrown out of it. My hands were on the armrests of the chair. My feet were flat on the floor. I'd stayed in my body this time even while part of me was three hundred years away.Progress.Seraphine was watching me from across the small table between us. She hadn't moved. Hadn't spoken. Just waited with the patience of someone who had been waiting for things for three centuries and knew how to do it without filling the silence."It was Morgana," I said."Yes.""She was inside those walls. She knew everyone. She had the key." I looked at my hands on the armrests. "She was trusted. Loved, you said. By my ancestor's mother.""By the entire court," Seraphine said. "She spent four years building that trust. Four years of patience and small questions and careful presence. Four years of being exactly what they neede

ELENA'S POVSeraphine helped me off the floor and into the chair by the window.She didn't say anything for a full minute. Just stood beside me with one hand on my shoulder while my breathing evened out and the shaking in my hands gradually slowed to something manageable.The others in the room had gone quiet. Even Ryker, who had come back inside at some point during the training session, was still. Watching without watching, the way people did when they understood something significant had just happened and didn't yet know what their role in it was."I need water," I said.Petra had a bottle in my hand before I finished the sentence.I drank. Slowly this time. I made myself breathe between swallows."The vision," I said to Seraphine. "It wasn't like the first flashes. It wasn't images. I was there. I was walking through it. I could feel the heat. I could smell the smoke.""I know," she said."How is that possible?""Nightshade blood carries memory," she said. "Not just power. Memory.

ELENA'S POVNobody spoke for a long moment after I set the phone down.Then Viviana said, "Show me."I slid the phone across the counter toward her. She read it standing up, one hand on the counter for balance, her face doing nothing while her eyes moved through the words. When she finished she set it down carefully and looked at the wall behind me for exactly three seconds."She used the emergency provision," she said. "Article Nine of the vampire council charter.Immediate threat to supernatural stability." Her jaw tightened. "She framed you as the threat.""The pregnant woman hiding in a mountain cabin," I said. "Very threatening.""The Nightshade heir carrying the Blood Sovereign," Seraphine corrected from the doorway. "To Morgana's faction, that's the most threatening thing in existence." She crossed the room and picked up the phone herself, read it once, set it back down. "The execution order is real and it's binding. Every vampire with council allegiance is now legally obligat

ELENA'S POVNobody moved for a long moment after the gold light faded.The young wolf was still slumped against the cracked wall, conscious now but not in any hurry to stand up. The other two wolves behind Ryker hadn't moved an inch since the eruption. Smart.Ryker looked at his pack member, then back at me. "Dax. On your feet."Dax pushed himself upright slowly, one hand pressed against his ribs. He looked at me differently now. Not with the dismissive impatience from before. Something more careful had replaced it."Apologize," Ryker said.Dax blinked. "Alpha….""She is the Nightshade heir. You reached for her ally without permission in her safe house." Ryker's voice was quiet and completely immovable. "Apologize."Dax looked at me. Something moved across his face that cost him something to show. "I overstepped. It won't happen again."I held his gaze for a moment. "See that it doesn't."Ryker nodded once like something had been settled.Then he looked around the room, taking in a
