Mia’s POV

The whispers followed me as I walked through the hallways, but something was different this time. There were no sneers, no insults spat in my direction. The usual taunts that had become a part of my daily routine were oddly absent.

The silence wasn’t comforting, though. It felt strange, unsettling even, but I couldn’t deny the small bubble of relief that formed in my chest.

By the time I reached my locker, I let out a soft murmur to myself. “At least one thing they did right.”

I was sure this was my stepbrothers’ doing. Maybe their overbearing nature had finally worked in my favor. The bullies who had tormented me every day for months now avoided my gaze, whispering only among themselves. It didn’t matter how it happened; it was one less thing to worry about.

As the day wore on, I found myself glancing at the clock more often than usual. My stomach churned with nervous energy, anticipation bubbling beneath the surface. By the time the final bell rang, I was nearly running ou

    Mia's POVLiam's question hung in the air between us, and I could see something calculating behind his concerned expression. My instincts were screaming at me to lie, to make up some excuse and get away from him as quickly as possible.But another part of me - the part that was tired of all the deception and games - wanted to just tell him the truth and see how he reacted.Maybe if I'm honest with him, I'll finally know for sure whether my suspicions are justified."I'm applying for a transfer," I said, watching his face carefully. "Back to my home pack."Liam's mask of concern slipped for just a moment, and I caught a flash of something dark in his eyes before he composed himself again."A transfer? Why?" he asked, his voice still gentle but with an underlying tension I'd never noticed before."I've decided to move my children back home," I continued, my heart pounding as I spoke. "They left last night with Daisy. I'll be joining them in two days."The silence that followed was deaf

    Mia's POVMy ears were still ringing from the explosion as Xavier and I slowly got to our feet. The acrid smell of smoke and burning gasoline filled the air, and I could feel small cuts on my arms from the flying debris."Are you hurt?" Xavier asked urgently, his hands running over my face and arms, checking for injuries."I'm fine," I said, though my voice was shaking. "The kids-"We both turned toward his car, relief flooding through me when I saw Marcus, Mira, and Miraz pressed against the back window, their faces pale but unharmed.They could have been killed. We all could have been killed."This is insane," I breathed, staring at the inferno that had been a gas station just moments before. "These people... they're willing to kill innocent people just to get to me."Xavier's jaw was clenched so tight I could see the muscle twitching. "Mia, you can't go back to your apartment. It's not safe anymore. Come stay with us until-""No," I interrupted, my mind made up. "I'm taking my chi

    Mia's POVThe weight of everything that had happened was crushing down on me. My children were clinging to my legs, still shaken from being chased by masked strangers, and I felt like I was drowning in confusion and fear.This has to be connected to that organization, I thought, my mind racing. The same one that killed their father. The same one that's been terrorizing packs."Xavier," I said, looking up at him with determination I didn't really feel. "I need to go home. Not to the apartment - home home. To my father's pack."His eyebrows shot up. "Mia, that's-""It's the only place my children will be truly safe," I interrupted. "My brother is there, my father. They have the resources to protect us properly."I could see the reluctance in his dark eyes, but also understanding. He knew as well as I did that whatever was happening was escalating fast."Thank you," I said quietly, surprising myself with the sincerity in my voice. "For being here when I needed you, even if you were foll

    Mia's POV"Run!" someone shouted from behind me. "Run now!"I didn't need to be told twice. Dropping the grocery bags, I grabbed Mira and Marcus's hands while scooping up Miraz with my other arm."Mommy, what's happening?" Mira cried, her little legs struggling to keep up with my frantic pace."Just run, baby," I panted, my heart hammering against my ribs. "We need to get somewhere safe right now."Behind us, I could hear heavy footsteps getting closer. The sound of boots on concrete echoed through the shopping district, and I knew without looking back that those masked men were still following us.This can't be happening. This can't be real.We darted between shoppers, weaving through the crowded sidewalk as I searched desperately for somewhere to hide. The children were crying now, scared and confused, and I felt like the worst mother in the world for putting them in this situation.How did everything go so wrong so fast?I spotted the entrance to the large shopping mall ahead and m

    Mia's POVThe house felt suffocating after I'd thrown everyone out. My hands were still shaking from the adrenaline, and I could hear the kids whispering upstairs, probably trying to make sense of what they'd witnessed downstairs.I felt terrible about how things had ended, especially with Liam. He'd looked so hurt when I told him to leave, and guilt was eating away at me. Despite my growing suspicions, he'd been nothing but kind and supportive to me and the children.Maybe I should apologize, I thought, making my way toward the kitchen to pack some leftovers for him. It was the least I could do after embarrassing him in front of those three.But as I reached for a container, I heard Liam's voice coming from outside. He was on the phone, and something in his tone made me freeze.I moved closer to the window, staying in the shadows so he wouldn't see me. I didn't want to disturb his call, but something about his voice made me stay and listen."I need you to take care of a problem for m

    Liam's POVThe tension in that room was suffocating, and I could feel my carefully constructed facade starting to crack. Mia had been acting differently toward me lately - more distant, more guarded. I knew exactly who to blame for this shift.Those damn brothers.Before they showed up, everything was perfect. Mia was starting to trust me, the kids adored me, and I was so close to having everything I wanted. But now? Now she was pulling away, and I could see suspicion creeping into her beautiful eyes whenever she looked at me."Well," I said, forcing my voice to remain light and casual, "I should probably go check on the kids. They're probably wondering where Uncle Liam went."The title felt bitter on my tongue now, but I needed to maintain the loving, caring image I'd worked so hard to build.As I walked toward the stairs, I could feel their eyes boring into my back. Tristan especially seemed to be studying me like I was some kind of puzzle he needed to solve. That man was dangerous
