Luca's POV

"You have been staring at that drawer for ten minutes," Lilith observed from the doorway.

I looked up. She was already inside, which meant she had been there longer than ten minutes and I had not noticed, which told me more about my current state of mind than I wanted to examine.

"Come in," I said, uselessly.

She pulled the second chair to the desk and sat down without ceremony. She looked at the drawer. Then at me.

"Is it in there?" she asked.

"Yes."

"Then take it out."

  • REBORN TO LOVE MY FATHER-IN-LAW   chapter 171

    Lilith's POV "You called me in like it was the welfare briefing," I said, stepping through the study door, "but no one in this room is holding documentation." Nobody answered. My father stood behind his desk. Scarlett was at the table, arms folded, watching my face with the keen attention she gave things she had not yet decided how to deliver. Reed was at the far end of the room with his laptop open, his jaw tight in the way it went tight when he was holding something back until it was needed. On the desk was a single printed page. I crossed the room and picked it up. I looked at the signature at the bottom. My name, alongside my handwriting, or what appeared to be my handwriting, was in the context of a formal criminal complaint filed with a regional land registry against my father's personal land ownership documentation. I turned the page toward the window light. I was not panicking. I had spent four years studying documents under conditions that required precision over emo

  • REBORN TO LOVE MY FATHER-IN-LAW   chapter 170

    Dominic's POV"I have been waiting for you to put those on my desk," Cain mentioned commandingly.I set the last item down, which was the prepaid phone, the cloth, and the filing signature printout, three objects in a line on the desk between us, the desk that smelled of old paper and black tea, thirty-two years of a man keeping something he should have said out loud.I sat down.I did not utter a single word. I only looked at him with the same gaze I had used on every person I had needed a complete truth from, without the managed patience, without the Alpha authority layered over it. Just me, looking at him, waiting.Cain looked at all three objects.He folded his hands.Then he looked up."Thirty-two years," he began, his voice carrying the weight of something that had been pressed down so long it had taken the shape of the container. "I have been carrying this for thirty-two years, Dominic. I want you to understand that before I tell you, because I need you to understand the weight

  • REBORN TO LOVE MY FATHER-IN-LAW   chapter 169

    Scarlett's POV "Lilith's signature," I repeated into the phone I had taken from Dominic's hand. "On the criminal complaint filing," Callum confirmed. "I pulled the original document from the registry. The signature matches, the documents used to support the complaint, personal correspondence, internal pack communications, could only have come from someone with direct family access." I looked at Dominic. He looked back at me with the face he wore when something had arrived that he needed to process before he could respond to it, completely still, jaw set, eyes doing the work of a mind that had gone several moves ahead. "We will call you back," I told Callum, ending the call. I put the phone on the desk. "Lilith arrived five days ago," I said quietly. "Yes," Dominic replied. "The complaint was filed three days ago." "Yes." "Which means it was filed two days after she came home." I held his gaze. "Dominic. Are you thinking what I'm thinking at all? Don't you think someone used

  • REBORN TO LOVE MY FATHER-IN-LAW   chapter 168

    Dominic's POV "It belongs to Cain," Reed's voice came through the phone. I took the phone from Scarlett's hand. "Say that again," I told him. "The second device," Reed repeated. "The one the prepaid phone messaged from the tree line. It is registered to Cain's account. His personal number is the receiving contact." A pause. "Dominic's name is saved as the contact label, but the device belongs to Cain." I looked at the cloth in my hand. Then I looked at Scarlett. "Stay on it," I told Reed. "Nothing moves without my instruction." I ended the call while I set the cloth on the desk. I picked up the formal letter Callum had brought up twenty minutes ago, the welfare investigation notification from the regional human governance body. Twenty-one days, inspectors. Three anonymous complaints, Morrow's public statement, and the community board photograph. I had been dealing with Morrow's instruments in sequence. I was done dealing with things in sequence. I called the briefing for ni

    Scarlett's POV"You are staring at the ceiling again," Dominic said from the window."I am thinking," I told him."You do both with the same expression." He turned from the window. "Coffee?"He already had it. He crossed the room, sat on the edge of the bed, and held the cup out. I sat up and took it.This was the third morning I had woken up in his room. He was already dressed, shirt on but jacket still over the chair, that in-between state that belonged only to early mornings before the pack's weight settled fully on him. Still private and mine. I drank the coffee.He watched me with the patient attention he gave things he was not going to rush."Tell me something you have not told me," he said.I looked at him over the rim of the cup."About the first life," he added. "The parts you left out because they seemed too small."I looked at the window.They were neither too small nor too embarrassing. There was a difference. The large things had been survivable to say out loud. The smal

    Lilith's POV"The intermediary is still inside the boundary," Reed told me, sitting down on the bench.He had come into the east garden fast, which meant whatever he had seen on the camera feed was not something that could wait for a comfortable entrance."You saw them on the northern corridor camera?" I asked."At the tree line," he confirmed. "For about four seconds before they stepped back." He looked at his phone. "Dagger has bikers moving to that section now. But four seconds is enough time to have already done whatever they came to do.""What would they come to do?"Reed looked at me. "That is what I cannot name."I looked at the garden wall and worked through it.The intermediary had introduced Baas to Morrow's team. They were inside this pack, which meant they had access to conversations, movements, and decisions. They had known about the criminal complaint when Baas did not, which meant their information channel to Morrow was separate from Baas's. They were still on the bound

    Luca's POV The eastern territory records. Morrow's people in the pack house last night through a gate Zara had opened. And somewhere in the records room, the original survey documentation that Reed and Dominic had built their entire counter-strategy around.If Morrow had it, the counterstrategy wo

  • REBORN TO LOVE MY FATHER-IN-LAW   chapter 137

    Luca's POV "The bond is dissolved, the claim happened last night. And the truth of the matter is, they are now formally mated." Zara did not move. She was sitting on the edge of her bed with her hands in her lap when I walked in, still in the clothes she had worn the previous day, which told me

  • REBORN TO LOVE MY FATHER-IN-LAW   chapter 136

    Dagger's POV "All units confirm the perimeter," I whispered into the radio at 2AM, lying flat on my back in the dark. The confirmations came back one by one. I set the radio down. Then I heard it. The howl rose from a spot in the east wing of the pack house, from inside the building itself, lon

  • REBORN TO LOVE MY FATHER-IN-LAW   chapter 135

    Dominic's POV I walked out of the study, then through the pack house, up the stairs, and down the east wing corridor. I did not stop when I reached the last door on the left, because my wolf had stopped waiting somewhere between the clearing and the council session. I had stopped arguing with him
