I was thirty seconds late collecting Wren that afternoon, delayed by a client call I could not politely end early, and I have replayed those thirty seconds countless times since, turning them over in my mind late at night, wondering what small, different choice might have kept this particular collision from ever occurring at all, wondering whether a different, faster route through the office building's lobby might have spared us both from what waited at the

Neva's POVThe footsteps grew louder, quicker, a small child's eager pace crossing the upstairs hallway toward the staircase, and I stood frozen in that warm, firelit sitting room with Wren still clutched against my chest, every instinct in my body screaming conflicting signals I could not properly reconcile. Wren, sensing something enormous unfolding around her despite her young age, went utterly silent against my chest, her small body tense with the same instinctive anticipation I felt roaring through my own veins.My mother rose from her own chair, her composed expression finally, completely cracking, and moved toward the staircase with an urgency that told me clearly she had not planned for this particular moment to arrive quite yet. I watched her hands tremble slightly as she moved, the first genuine crack in a composure she had otherwise maintained flawlessly since we first arrived at her carefully prepared doorstep."Rowan." Her voice car

Neva's POVWe drove out to the address that same evening, all four of us together, Wren settled safely with Carla despite her tearful protests at being separated from me again so soon after her unexpected adventure. I had knelt beside her for a long moment before leaving, explaining as gently as I could that Mommy needed to have an important, grown up conversation, and promising, with a certainty I did not entirely feel myself, that I would return to collect her before bedtime.I had considered going alone, weighing the driver's strange, deliberate phrasing carefully across the hours between his departure and our eventual decision. Come alone, or bring all three. It makes no difference. Something in that particular wording suggested a woman entirely confident in her own control over whatever waited at the end of this invitation, unconcerned by numbers or reinforcements because she had already accounted for every possible variation of how I might choose
Rejected, Then Wanted by My Triplet Alphas CHAPTER 98
Neva's POVCassian's call reached us before we had even cleared the safehouse's front door, his voice tight with barely controlled panic as he relayed everything, the black car, the car seat, the impossible confirmation of my mother's face staring back at him across a busy intersection. I clutched the phone so tightly my knuckles went white, every word he spoke landing like a fresh blow atop the already devastating revelation Ruth had delivered only minutes before.I do not remember the drive back into the city clearly. I remember only fragments, Dorian's hands steady on the wheel, Lucian in the back seat murmuring quiet reassurances I could not fully absorb, my own mind fractured entirely between terror for my daughter and the impossible, unresolved revelation about my mother still churning beneath everything else. Two impossible truths colliding within the space of a single hour, my mother alive after nineteen years of believed death, and now apparen
Rejected, Then Wanted by My Triplet Alphas CHAPTER 97
Cassian's POVI was moving before Neva had even finished the call, some instinct older and faster than conscious thought propelling me toward the door the moment I understood what was happening. Three years of searching, of guilt, of desperately trying to earn back even a fraction of what my careless cruelty had once cost her, and I was not about to let that fragile, hard won progress unravel because I hesitated even a single unnecessary second.Wren. Taken from her nursery by a woman claiming to be her grandmother, a woman none of us could account for, arriving at the exact moment we finally uncovered the impossible truth about Selene Frost's continued existence. Every instinct I possessed screamed that these two events could not possibly be unrelated, that whatever patient, calculating mind had orchestrated nineteen years of careful manipulation had simply been waiting for the exact right moment to make its next move.The timing was too precis
Rejected, Then Wanted by My Triplet Alphas CHAPTER 96
Neva's POVThe world tilted sideways beneath me the moment those words fully registered, my legs suddenly, completely unwilling to properly hold my own weight, and I felt myself sway dangerously before I had even consciously understood that I was falling. Every careful, hard won piece of composure I had built across three years of professional discipline simply dissolved in that single instant, my body reacting to grief and shock too enormous for my mind to fully process quickly enough to maintain control.She never even left.Nineteen years. Nineteen years of grief, of birthdays uncelebrated, of a childhood photograph I had once traded to a pawnbroker for a week's rent, of a life built entirely around the belief that my mother had died protecting a pack that no longer existed. Nineteen years of mourning a woman who, according to Ruth's shaking, tear streaked confession, had simply never left the scene of her own supposed death at all. I thought
Rejected, Then Wanted by My Triplet Alphas CHAPTER 95
Neva's POVWe found Ruth three days later, tracked through a chain of shell company leases that eventually led Dorian's analysts to a nondescript rogue safehouse two states distant, one of dozens of anonymous properties the Silver Hollow Trust apparently maintained for exactly this kind of quiet, careful disappearance. Three days of relentless, focused searching had passed in a blur of shared meals eaten standing over laptops, brief snatched hours of sleep, and a growing, careful trust rebuilding itself slowly between myself and all three brothers, forged entirely through the shared, urgent purpose of finding a woman who had betrayed us all.I insisted on going myself, over every objection all three brothers raised, and eventually they relented, accompanying me rather than replacing me entirely, understanding correctly that this particular confrontation belonged to me above anyone else. Cassian had argued longest and loudest, his protective instincts s
