~Selene's POV~

She listens to all of it.

She does not rush any part of the listening. She lets each sentence arrive and settle before the next one comes, the way she has learned to receive things over the past ten months, without the old instinct to process everything into something manageable before she has actually taken in its full weight. He speaks plainly and without performance, and she stays on her knees on the cold stone and takes every word in properly.

  • Rejected and Pregnant with Alpha Twins   Chapter One Hundred

    ~Selene's POV~She thinks about it for three days before she brings it to Miriam properly, though she has been turning it over privately since the night Caden asked. She has learned over the past year that her best decisions come from this exact process, holding a question quietly until its shape becomes clear on its own rather than forcing an answer before she has actually arrived at one. Rushing a decision like this would mean making it for the wrong reasons, out of momentum or pressure or the simple desire to have the question settled, and she has spent too long building the discipline of waiting to abandon it now, when it matters more than it ever has before.On the first evening she does nothing but sit with the question in the background while she works through Orla's invoicing and answers two emails from the hospitality group about a venue scheduling conflict. She does not force the thinking. She has learned that forcing it only produces answers that sound right rather than ans

  • Rejected and Pregnant with Alpha Twins   Chapter Ninety Nine

    ~Caden's POV~The evening starts the way most of their evenings together start now, with Miriam taking the twins through their bath and bedtime routine while Selene and Caden sit at the small table in the south property's kitchen, the door to the hallway half-closed so the sound of running water and Lior's ongoing commentary on the experience drifts through without dominating the room.He has been coming here most evenings for weeks now, and he has learned the geography of this house the way he once knew Blackwell Manor without thinking about it. He knows which cupboard holds the mugs Selene actually uses and which holds the ones she keeps for guests she has not had yet. He knows that Asha's favorite spot to be set down is the corner of the rug nearest the window, because the light moves there in a way that interests her. He knows, more than anything, the particular quality of an evening when nothing especially dramatic is happening, which is itself something he did not understand the

  • Rejected and Pregnant with Alpha Twins   Chapter Ninety Eight

    ~Selene's POV~She decides on a Wednesday morning, somewhat suddenly, that she will bring the twins to Blackwell Manor for the afternoon.It is her decision and she makes it the way she makes most decisions now, by sitting with the question privately until the answer feels obvious, rather than asking anyone what they think first. She has not moved out of the south property. She has no plans to, not yet, not until she decides on her own timeline that the moment is right. This is not that. This is one afternoon. The twins meeting the house that holds half of their blood.She tells Caden the night before, by text, with no explanation beyond the basic fact of it. Tomorrow afternoon, if you're free. I'll bring them by around two.His reply comes within a minute. I'll be there.She arrives at two exactly, Dax driving, Miriam in the back beside the twins' car seats. The manor looks the same as it has always looked from the outside, stone and high windows, the dark pines crowding close around

  • Rejected and Pregnant with Alpha Twins   Chapter Ninety Seven

    ~Selene's POV~The meeting is scheduled for ten in the morning at Pack Hall, and Selene arrives five minutes early because arriving exactly on time has never suited her and arriving late is not something she does. This is the first time she has been inside Pack Hall in an official capacity since the rejection ceremony, and she notices the building registering it too. The Omega at the front desk stands up slightly straighter when she walks in. Two pack members in the corridor stop talking and step aside to let her pass, not out of caution but out of something closer to deference.This is also the first time she and Caden will be in an official Pack Hall meeting together since everything changed.She finds the third floor conference room without needing directions. She remembers exactly where it is. The last time she was on this floor, she was walking out after the bond severance with her chin level and her eyes dry, and the memory does not unsettle her the way it might have eight month

  • Rejected and Pregnant with Alpha Twins   Chapter Ninety Six

    ~Caden's POV~The Inter-Pack Council reconvenes two days after Vivienne's claim is dismissed to address the second matter on the session agenda, which is the formal territorial review arising from Dorian Voss's unprovoked military aggression against Cresthaven's northern gate.This session is different in register from the one that preceded it. There is no dispute about the basic facts. Dorian's force crossed the Cresthaven border with intent to breach. Cresthaven's defense held. The casualties on Dorian's side significantly outnumber Cresthaven's. Three of Dorian's allied packs have already formally withdrawn their association with Ironmere in the days following the battle, which means Dorian arrived at this council review as an entity without military backing, without inter-pack standing, and without the one operative who had been providing him with Cresthaven's internal information.He does not appear in person.His representatives are two men Caden does not recognize, which is its

  • Rejected and Pregnant with Alpha Twins   Chapter Ninety Five

    ~Selene's POV~The council's finding takes four minutes to deliver and uses fewer words than the claim it is dismissing. Councilwoman Vera reads the determination in a level, unhurried voice. The claim is found insufficient on its stated premise. The original complaint is closed. There will be no formal review of the mate presentation. The record of the wrongful bond severance, entered during the heir recognition hearing, stands without modification.Vera sets the paper down and the session ends.Selene stays in her seat. She is not performing composure at this point. She is simply not in a hurry to stand up and she sees no reason to pretend otherwise.Vivienne rises from her chair on the other side of the table. She gathers her documents with the same precise movements she uses for everything, no rushing, no visible disarray, her jacket still perfectly in place. She speaks briefly to her assistant in a voice low enough that the words do not carry. Then she walks to the chamber door.

    ~Selene’s POV~"Congratulations, Luna Ashford. You're going to be a mother."Dr. Priya Noel's voice is still ringing in my ears as I step out of the private clinic and into the pale afternoon light.I stop on the pavement, pressing one hand flat against the cold stone wall to steady myself, the oth

    ~Caden’s POV~Four months.Four months since she walked out of this building and I have done nothing but work, manage, control, and refuse to think about the precise way she looked when the bond broke — the colour that left her face, the sound she didn't quite manage to suppress.I spin my phone sl

    ~Selene’s POV~The rejection is scheduled for nine o'clock.I know because Caden's message at six in the morning is clinical and precise, as if he is confirming a conference call.Pack Hall, third floor, nine a.m. Come alone.My mother reads the message over my shoulder and says nothing. She presse

  • Rejected and Pregnant with Alpha Twins   Chapter Two

    ~Selene’s POV~I don't sleep.I lie on my side of the bed — our bed — and stare at the ceiling while Caden's side remains cold and untouched. I heard him leave again at midnight, the front door closing with a finality that vibrated through the walls.I don't ask myself where he went.I already know
