Ryan

Messing with me was a big mistake, Mikaela. Last night's event was the only thought running in my head as I stormed out of that meeting room. My jaw was tight, my fists itching to hit something. The nerve of her, standing there, acting bold, and saying Tobias was the better man. Tobias. As if that pathetic excuse of a leader could ever measure up to me.

I scoffed under my breath, shaking my head. Tobias couldn’t even keep his pack safe from rogues. If he was really the better man, where was he when his people needed him? Hiding behind walls, throwing words around like they meant anything. Pathetic. Damn all of them.

I had come here only for this so-called alliance. But now, that part had already started to feel like a side job. The main thing now was my kids. My blood. My priority now was getting close to them, making sure they knew who their real father was.

But Lydia’s question earlier… that was a problem. Too sharp, too pointed. If she kept poking around, she might dig up some

    RyanThe council room was crowded. The elders sat in their usual spots, their voices heavy and sharp as they argued about rogue sightings near the borders. My betas, including Max, lined the far side.I sat at the head of the long wooden table. Lydia was next to me, her hand clamped tightly around my arm like I was going to vanish if she let go. I didn’t pull away. I couldn’t. Not with so many eyes on us.And then there was Mikaela. She sat quietly near the end of the table, scrolls laid out neatly in front of her. She wasn’t here as a mother or a guest. She was here as Tobias’s representative for Monsoon. Her posture was straight, her expression calm, like none of the glares or mutters aimed at her even touched her.“Scarlet has had three rogue attacks in the last week,” Elder Rowan said, his voice carrying over the table. “We cannot keep losing men this way.”"We need stronger patrols. The rogues are testing us and finding weak spots.”“We can’t stretch ourselves too thin,” another

    MikaelaMorning came too quickly. I had barely slept, but the kids were up early and buzzing with their nervous energy. I got them dressed, fixed their hair, and tried to make it all feel normal. Today was supposed to be their first day walking around Scarlet Pack. They needed to go to school, the gardens and probably the training yard.“Stay close to me,” I told them, straightening Samuel’s shirt. “No wandering, alright? This part goes for you especially Declan.”“Yes, Mommy,” Lisa said, clutching my hand. Declan just shrugged like always, but I knew he was listening.The moment we stepped outside, I felt it. That shift, conversations cutting off mid-sentence. Wolves stopping to stare at me, their former Luna. I forced a small smile, trying to greet a passing omega. “Good morning.”She didn’t even look at me, she just kept walking and tugging her little boy closer to her side.Another pair of wolves whispered as I walked past them, their voices low but sharp enough to hear. “That’

    MikaelaThe second we stepped into Scarlet Pack territory, I felt it. That shift. That tension crawling under my skin.The pack members gathered fast, like they’d been waiting all day for Ryan to return. Their Alpha. The one they bowed their heads for and smiled at. But when their eyes slid to me? It...that was different. Those looks weren’t warm. They weren’t welcoming. They were sharp, like knives pressed against my throat.I heard it before I saw it, the whispers darting from one mouth to another.The triplets squeezed my hands tight, their confused little faces glancing up at me. Lisa leaned closer, whispering, “Mommy, why are they staring at us?”I forced a smile for her, even though my stomach was twisted in knots. “It’s nothing, baby. Just stay close to me.” God, I hoped she believed me.Ryan, of course, didn’t notice, or maybe he just didn’t care. He walked ahead, all shoulders and authority, the pack drinking him in like he was their savior. He didn’t even slow down for us.

    MikaelaWe combed through the thick woods like our lives depended on it, because mine did. My son was out here somewhere. The trees were thick and the shadows were playing tricks on my eyes, and every sound made my heart slam harder.At least Ryan had finally shut Lydia up. He’d snapped at her so hard she actually went quiet for once. Thank God. The last thing I needed was her voice poisoning the air while my child was missing.“Keep breathing, Mikaela,” Ryan muttered as he pushed branches out of the way. “We’ll find him. I promise.”I shot him a glare so sharp it could’ve cut bark off the trees. “I don’t need your damn promises, Ryan. I need my son.”He flinched but didn’t argue. Maybe he knew I was right.We pressed deeper. The forest seemed endless. I did t stop, I couldn't. "Declan honey?!" I yelled out again, but nothjng. He didnt respond. Where did he run off to? "Wait a second. I hear something," Ryan muttered as he sniffed the air.I heard it too. It was a cry. My heart ju

    MikaelaThe car kept moving steadily, wheels humming over the dirt road as we drove deeper into Scarlet Pack territory. I pressed my forehead lightly against the window, watching the trees blur past. I didn’t want to be here. Not with Ryan. And definitely not with Lydia.I’d already made it clear to him, I wanted nothing to do with either of them. My only concern was my children. That’s it. I swore to myself that no matter what Lydia spat out, no matter how sharp her tongue got or no matter how much it hurt I wouldn’t let her get into my head. For the kids’ sake, I couldn’t.Still, I could sense it. Her insecurities. They poured off her like bad perfume. She was scared, terrified even that I’d somehow take her place at Ryan’s side. I almost laughed at the thought. Me? Go back to Ryan? The same way she had crawled her way into his life when mine was falling apart? Hell no. Ryan was my past, I wasn’t planning to repeat.I scoffed quietly at the thought, shaking my head. That door was

    RyanBy the time morning came, we were all set to leave this damn place. The engines were already rumbling when we finally pulled out. It was me, Mikaela, Lydia, the kids, and a couple guards following behind in another SUV. I took the driver’s seat, l didn't trust anyone else with it. Lydia sat shotgun, of course, while Mikaela and the kids were in the back.I kept my eyes on the road, hands steady on the wheel, but truth be told, I wasn’t all there. Every couple minutes, I found myself checking the rearview mirror. At her, Mikaela. She hadn’t said much since we left. Her eyes were glued to the kids, her shoulders tight like she was holding herself together with nothing but sheer will. Every so often, she’d lean forward, adjusting a seatbelt or asking, “Are you comfortable back there?” like her whole world depended on their answer.And me? I kept thinking, Three months. That’s all I’ve got. Three months to make her stay.Lydia’s voice broke through, light and airy like she was jus
