~Caden’s POV~

Rhys arrives without a message.

This in itself is information. He has a standing protocol for Pack Hall visits that involves a brief notification through the internal system, because Caden's mornings are structured and Rhys is aware of the structure and generally respects it. When he appears in the doorway of Caden's office at half past ten on a Wednesday without a notification having preceded him, Caden sets down the border logistics report he has been reviewing and waits.

    ~Caden’s POV~Rhys arrives without a message.This in itself is information. He has a standing protocol for Pack Hall visits that involves a brief notification through the internal system, because Caden's mornings are structured and Rhys is aware of the structure and generally respects it. When he appears in the doorway of Caden's office at half past ten on a Wednesday without a notification having preceded him, Caden sets down the border logistics report he has been reviewing and waits.Rhys closes the door behind him.He does not sit. He stands with the specific uprightness that means he has been carrying what he is about to say for long enough that it has acquired weight, and he has come to deliver the weight rather than continue to carry it."I have something," he says. "I found it independently. I didn't go through Conrad."Caden says nothing. He waits."I have a contact," Rhys continues. "Former pack, southern neutral territory, runs logistics for event coordination firms in tha

  • Rejected and Pregnant with Alpha Twins   Chapter Twenty Eight

    The appointment is at nine in the morning.She has been awake since half past six, which is not unusual at this stage — the twins have developed strong opinions about the predawn hours and express them with the unhurried authority of people who have not yet been introduced to the concept of her preferences. She dresses slowly, eats what she can manage, and walks the four blocks to Dr. Amara's clinic in the cool of the early morning with her hands in her coat pockets and her breath visible in the air.The velvet box is in her left pocket. It always is.She has carried it since the day she left Cresthaven, through the three-hour drive south and the first disorienting weeks in Silvermere and the long middle months of building something from the wreckage of what was taken from her. The box itself is showing the wear of constant handling — the nap of the velvet slightly flattened at the edges where her fingers have rested against it thousands of times, the hinge stiff from opening and clos

  • Rejected and Pregnant with Alpha Twins   Chapter Twenty Seven

    ~Caden’s POV~The communication arrives through the elder council's formal inter-pack messaging protocol on a Thursday morning, which means it has been logged, timestamped, and assigned a reference number before it reaches his desk. This is how official complaints travel between packs. It is also, Caden notes as he reads the reference number, how certain kinds of messages make themselves appear more neutral than they are.The complaint concerns a boundary marker.Specifically, a granite post on the eastern edge of Cresthaven's territorial line where it meets the disputed corridor that runs between Cresthaven and the Ironmere Pack's westernmost holding. The post, Dorian Voss contends in language that is careful and correct and entirely without apparent malice, has been repositioned since the last inter-pack territorial survey. He requests a joint review. He cites three precedents. He closes with the formal salutation required by the elder council's protocol — *in the interest of good

  • Rejected and Pregnant with Alpha Twins   Chapter Twenty Six

    ~Selene’s POV~She goes to bed with intention.This is new. The first dreams had arrived without her participation — she had been asleep and then inside them, with no transition she could account for, the way you sometimes find yourself in a room without remembering crossing the threshold. Tonight she lies down with the knowledge her mother gave her still present in the room like a third occupant, and she closes her eyes and holds still in the deliberate way she has learned to hold still when a situation requires patience rather than movement.She does not try to enter the dream. She simply makes herself available to it.The transition, when it comes, is not abrupt. It is the careful opening of something that has been waiting for readiness rather than sleep, and when the familiar quality of the light arrives, that sourceless, immeasurable warmth that she has no ordinary language for, she is already steady inside it, already oriented, already herself.The presence is clearer.Not clear

  • Rejected and Pregnant with Alpha Twins   Chapter Twenty Five

    ~Selene’s POV~She tells her mother about the dreams on a Tuesday evening in the small kitchen that has become, over the course of five months, its own version of ordinary.She has not planned to tell her. She has been sitting with the dreams the way she sits with all information that arrives without a full context — carefully, privately, filed in the part of her mind that holds things not yet ready to be named. But they are now five nights deep into the second dream's recurrence, and she has watched her mother three times this week and chosen silence, and the choosing has begun to cost something.She tells her the way she tells most things: briefly, in plain language, looking at the table.The presence. The quality of the light that has no quality she can name in ordinary terms. The sense of being addressed rather than visited. The sequential nature of it — each dream continuing from exactly where the last one ended, with the precision of something that has a shape and intends to fin

  • Rejected and Pregnant with Alpha Twins   Chapter Twenty Four

    ~Caden’s POV~The order is given at half past ten in the morning.He does not summon a senior escort to signal gravity; he summons two mid-rank pack guards and gives the instruction in the same register he would use to redirect a border patrol rotation — matter-of-fact, specific, with a stated timeline that is not a suggestion. Vivienne Cole's belongings are to be removed from the guest wing of Blackwell Manor and placed in her vehicle. She is to be accompanied during the removal. The process is to be completed by noon.He is not present when they arrive at the manor.He makes this choice deliberately, because her departure is an administrative act and he will not dress it as anything larger by standing in the entrance hall watching it happen. He is at Pack Hall when the confirmation message arrives from the lead escort. Two words. Completed. Departed.What he does with those two words is nothing visible.Rhys had told him how she left, later, because Rhys had been there.Composed. T
