Chapter 10

Xenois

As we drove toward their home that was located in the less populated area of the town, Riley quickly fell asleep in the backseat, clearly suffering from jet lag.

"How is Ollie really doing?" Sophia asked quietly, once she was sure her son was asleep. "Any improvement?"

I fixed my eyes on the road unwilling to admit to her how little I knew about my own son's condition.

"He seemed better this morning, actually. More energetic and bouncing off the walls."

"That's wonderful news!" She held my hand squeezing it gently as she added. "I've been so worried about him. About all of you."

I felt guilty. Sophia wasn't the villain in this story.

She actually seemed to care about Luna and Ollie, and has never pushed for more than I was willing to give. My mistakes with my own marriage wasn't her fault.

"Luna's been... different today," I spoke surprising myself that I was bringing her up. Normally she was a taboo topic whenever I was with Sophia.

"Something's changed. I can't

    Chapter 100: The Sanctuary ZADEI glanced in the rearview mirror, seeing the blood on Ollie's face, that had smeared on his cheeks, the way his fangs seemed to be shining in the inside car light. "He's manifesting early," I said, my voice filled with concern as I tried not to worry about the implications of this unusual behavior."The stress that he had been on tonight was enough to trigger a partial shift."Lumina pulled tissues from her purse, trying to clean the blood from Ollie's mouth with shaking hands, trying to get rid of my blood in his mouth."Look at me, baby," she whispered, gently her eyes terrified not because of her son, but what this meant and could possibly do to him. "Look at Mommy."But Ollie's red eyes remained fixed on me, a low growl was coming from his throat. He was caught between his human self and his wolf, too young to understand what was happening to him."Ollie," I said softly, meeting his eyes in the mirror, as his eyes hardened as soon as he saw that I

    Chapter 99: The Partial ShiftZADEThe sound of Ollie desperately crying for his father hurt me, in a way that I didn't expect as I watched Xenois collapse on the wet ground behind us. Even through the rearview mirror, I could see the devastation on his face, the way his body was shaking with each howl that seemed to be echoing round for miles."DADDY!" Ollie screamed again, his small fists pounding against the window. "DADDY, DON'T LET THEM TAKE ME!"Lumina was trying to hold him, her own tears rolling down her face as she attempted to comfort him. "Baby, please," she whispered, her voice breaking, as she was trying her best to console him and stop him from getting sick from crying too much."Please calm down."But Ollie was beyond reason, at this point. He didn't want to listen to any reasons or try to understand why they had to leave his father there. His five-year-old mind couldn't understand why his mother was taking him away from his father, why the only safe place he had know

    Chapter 98: The ChaseXENOISI pulled into our driveway, my mind racing with different thoughts.. "I'm having another DNA test done," I said as I turned off the engine, turning to look at her. I wasn't going to let this just ruin my life when I was innocent."A more thorough one. And I'm going to find out exactly how this happened.""Xenois—""And this arrangement is temporary," I continued, cutting her off, shaking my head. "Tonight only. And only because you don't have a home to go to. Tomorrow I'm taking you to a hotel while we figure out your housing situation. This is not you moving back into my life."As I helped her out of the car, I caught a scent that made my wolf instantly alert as I subconsciously growled. Another Alpha had been here, in my house. In my private den. The territorial instinct kicked in immediately, and I remembered that I had approved Alpha Zade's visit request. Damn it. This wasn't the time to deal with Zade. Nothing was going right for me now.The front do

    Chapter 97: Denying The Harsh TruthXENOISI couldn't get the image of Lumina's face out of my mind as I left the hospital. The hurt in her eyes, the way she'd looked at me like I was a stranger, it made my heart ache and haunted me with every step that I took.But the evidence was overwhelming. The men who had attacked Sophia had confessed, under Alpha command no less, to make sure that they were saying the truth and not trying to frame an innocent woman that Lumina had hired them.But still, I had to know for certain.The police station was abuzz with lights, officers and murmured conversation as soon as they saw me and I demanded to speak with the attackers myself. Detective Morrison, a grizzled man who'd worked with our pack for years, led me to the interrogation room, without wasting my time."Alpha Xenois," he said quietly, trying to fill me in without the others hearing us, "I have to warn you, what they're saying about your wife... it's pretty damning."I nodded my head as I

    Chapter 96: The EscapeLUMINA I stood up and took Ollie's hand, slinging his backpack over my shoulder as I said to him. "Come on, let's go downstairs."Riley followed us silently, not saying anything although I could feel his eyes on me, and I fought the urge not to look back as, his small footsteps were echoing in the hallway. When we got to the living room, I could hear raised voices – Thorne and Zade in the middle of a heated argument."–completely irresponsible," Thorne was saying as I got closer to make out the words that were being said. "You're helping her make the biggest mistake of her life.""I'm helping her escape a toxic situation," Zade replied calmly, refusing to budge on this matter as he crossed his arms across his chest. "Something you should be doing instead of enabling your Alpha's destructive behavior.""Destructive behavior?" Thorne's voice rose as he gritted his teeth and clenched his fist, taking two steps closer towards him. "He's trying to navigate an imp

    Chapter 95: Tearing The Family Apart LUMINAI climbed the stairs to our bedroom with dread pooling in my stomach, each step I took felt like I was walking away from the life I'd built over the past five years. The familiar creak of the third step, the family photos that were lined on the walls, the scent of the lavender candles I always kept burning, everything felt like it belonged to someone else now.In our bedroom, I went straight to the closet and pushed aside the hanging clothes to reveal a small safe that had been hidden behind my winter coats and wears. My hands shook as I entered the combination, it was Ollie's birthday, the one date I knew I'd never forget. Inside were the things I'd been quietly gathering for months, knowing that a day like this might come, especially with the fact that I had been reborn.It was where I had kept my passport, birth certificate, the emergency credit card I'd opened in my maiden name, and the cash I'd been slowly withdrawing from our joint
