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

Reed's POV I checked the second feed. The eastern access route, which seemed clear.Third feed…The ridge approach, was Clear."All three positions," I confirmed."All three," Dagger repeated.Morrow had pulled Collins back.He had heard forty-eight hours of a pack in legal difficulty, a certified copy facing procedural challenge, a surveyor's testimony under contest, and an Alpha running three steps behind three simultaneous legal fronts. He had heard it all through a device he believed was his and he had decided that with Dark Eclipse weakening, the physical occupation of the corridor was no longer necessary. The legal instruments would do the work. No need to maintain the operational cost of keeping Collins's people on the boundary.He had pulled them back.Which meant the northern corridor was clear.Which meant Dominic's bikers could move through it without opposition for the first time in weeks.Which meant the eastern territory, physically, was ours again.I looked at the clear

Reed's POV"Signal is clean," I told the monitor. "He is receiving everything we are putting out."Nobody answered because nobody was in the gate room at two in the morning except me and the equipment alongside the quiet hum of a transmission that Cassius Morrow believed was giving him the inside of Dark Eclipse's strategy in real time.It was not.For the past forty-eight hours, what Morrow had been hearing from the replacement device in Dominic's study was a carefully built fiction. I had scripted most of it myself, running it through the room in staged conversations between Dominic and Callum, with Scarlett and Reed standing in for the supporting voices, constructing a version of events in which the certified copy submission was hitting procedural resistance. In which the surveyor's testimony was being challenged on chain of custody grounds. In which Dominic was working hard and running behind.Every word of it was false.Every counter-move we were making was happening in rooms and

Dominic's POV Being loved in the ordinary hours. In the dark, in the garden, after a day of criminal complaints and replaced listening devices and Elder removals and three legal fronts and a fourth person whose name I was not ready to say out loud yet. This, after all of that. Just this.I had been afraid of it.I was not afraid of it anymore."She would have liked you too," I told her. "She had very little patience for people who performed things. She would have seen straight through every layer you arrived with and found you entirely acceptable underneath."Scarlett looked at me sideways."Entirely acceptable," she repeated."High praise from her," I replied.She shook her head but the corner of her mouth moved.We stayed on the bench for a while longer. She asked about the pack in the years after, not about grief but about what running it alone had looked like, and I told her honestly, the way I was learning to tell her things, without the managed version in front of it.When she
