Dominic's POV

It had been a week since I gave Dominic a chance to prove himself, and I had to admit that things were going surprisingly well. Every morning, I woke up to breakfast in bed. Every evening, he cooked dinner for me himself. He was attentive without being suffocating, caring without being controlling. It was almost too good to be true.

The strangest part was that I was starting to believe his sincerity. The way he looked at me when he thought I wasn't watching, the gentle way he touched my hand when he helped me up, the excited smile that crossed his face whenever we talked about the baby – it all seemed genuine. Maybe he really could be a good father. Maybe he really was trying to change.

But I still felt conflicted. My heart was hard toward him, protected by layers of anger and grief that couldn't be erased so easily. Yet there were moments when I caught myself smiling at something he said, or feeling grateful for his thoughtfulness. It was confusing and frustrating.

    Antalya's POV"Even then," I confirmed. "But I need you to communicate with me when something is bothering you, instead of just shutting me out.""I was afraid that if I told you how angry I was about the call, you'd think I was being unreasonable and it would push you away," he admitted."And I was afraid that if I told you about the call, you'd think I was betraying you," I said. "So we were both being stupid."His hand moved so fast I didn’t have time to blink. It wasn’t a slap. It was a grasp. His fingers tangled in the hair at the nape of my neck, not enough to hurt, but with enough force to make my breath catch and my scalp tingle. He pulled my head back just slightly, forcing me to look up into his face. The controlled anger there was a live wire.“That’s what it is,” he growled, his voice low and rough, vibrating through me. “It’s the fact that you didn’t tell me. You let me stand there and watch him look at you like he was remembering what you tasted like. You hid it. That’s

    Antalya's POVWhen I woke up the next morning, I immediately reached over to find Dominic's side of the bed cold and empty. I sat up and looked around the room, but there was no sign of him anywhere.He must have left early for his pack meetings, I thought, though something felt different about the way he wasn't there. Usually when he left before I woke up, I could still smell his scent on the pillow or see evidence that he'd been getting ready. Today, it felt like he'd been gone for hours.I got dressed and went downstairs to find Mrs. Henderson in the kitchen preparing breakfast."Good morning, dear," she said with a warm smile. "Alpha Dominic left very early this morning. He said he had important business to take care of.""Did he say when he'd be back?" I asked, accepting the plate of eggs and toast she offered me."He didn't mention a time, but he seemed... tense," Mrs. Henderson said carefully. "More so than usual."I spent the entire day waiting for him to return. I tried to d

    Dominic's POV"It was nothing," Antalya said quickly, her hands moving nervously as she tried to look casual. "Just... just someone asking about the women's hockey team."I could smell the lie on her. The way she shifted her weight, the way her eyes darted away from mine, the slight tremor in her voice - everything about her body language screamed deception."A hockey team that calls this late at night?" I asked, keeping my voice neutral even though suspicion was eating at me."They have practice schedules and things," she said, but her explanation sounded weak even to her own ears.I watched as she moved around the room, straightening things that didn't need straightening, clearly trying to distract me from the phone call. But I had heard her voice through the door - soft, urgent, almost pleading. That wasn't how someone talked about hockey schedules."I see," I said simply, deciding not to push the issue right now. "How was your day?"Something is definitely going on, I thought as I

    Antalya's POV"Antalya, are you there?" Vaiker's voice came through the phone, sounding worried and urgent.I held the phone to my ear but couldn't find my voice. Hearing him again after everything that had happened brought back a flood of complicated emotions. Part of me felt anger, part confusion, and part of me just felt tired."Please, just talk to me," he continued when I didn't respond. "I need to know you're okay.""I'm..." I started, then stopped. Am I okay? What does that even mean anymore?"Antalya, please. Just tell me you're safe.""How did you get this number?" I finally asked, my voice coming out sharper than I intended. "Dominic personally changed my phone settings. There's no way you should have been able to reach me.""I have my ways," Vaiker said evasively. "That's not what's important right now.""It is important!" I snapped. "You shouldn't be calling me at all. We're not together anymore, remember?"There was a pause on the other end. "Don't worry about how I got y

    Antalya's POVI watched Dominic's face as he processed what I'd told him about Lacie's suspicious behavior. I could see the wheels turning in his mind, connecting dots and forming theories. But there was something in his expression that made me feel like he was holding back."So what's the plan?" I asked. "How are we going to figure out what she's really up to?""We?" Dominic raised an eyebrow. "There's no 'we' in this, Antalya. This is dangerous pack business.""Dangerous pack business that directly affects me," I pointed out. "If Lacie is working with whoever attacked your people, then I'm involved whether you like it or not.""You're pregnant," he said firmly. "Your job is to stay safe and take care of our baby. My job is to handle threats."He's trying to protect me, I realized, feeling a warmth spread through my chest. But he's also treating me like I can't handle serious problems."I appreciate that you want to protect me," I said carefully. "But I'm not made of glass, Dominic.

    Dominic's POVThe crime scene was worse than I had imagined. Bodies scattered across the Miller family's front yard, blood soaking into the earth, and the distinct smell of death hanging heavy in the air. I had seen violence before - hell, I had caused plenty of it myself - but this was different. This was systematic, calculated, and deliberately brutal."How many dead?" I asked Marcus, my beta, as I surveyed the carnage."Four confirmed dead here," Marcus replied grimly. "Three more family members are missing, including two children."Who would dare attack my pack like this? The rage was building inside me, hot and dangerous. Don't they know what I'm capable of? I could wipe out any pack that crosses me."Any witnesses?" I demanded, crouching next to one of the bodies."The neighbor heard screaming around midnight, but by the time she called for help, it was too late," one of my guards reported.I examined the wounds more closely. Clean cuts, precise strikes. This wasn't the work of
