Lisa POV

Nobody interrupted Cameron as he remained on his knees. His palms stayed pressed against my hips, and the heat of his forehead soaked through the fabric straight to my skin.

My fingers twitched against his scalp. The fear from earlier remained; the possibility that he was my mate, and that I was now a target for whatever was tracking him.

Harry’s words about altered bonds drifted through my mind, but the steady rhythm of Cameron’s breathing against my belly drowned them out.

He lifted

    Cassidy POV "How much does she know?" I asked, pointing at Lisa and ignoring her mother entirely.Kieran nodded. "Can we all just sit?"Lisa and Susan moved toward the sofa near the fireplace, keeping as much distance as possible between us."We've reached the point where partial explanations are no longer useful," Kieran said, his eyes staying on Lisa until she finally looked back at him. She had handed him her trust already. That much was obvious."This is Cassidy," Kieran told her, his hand reaching toward my side of the room. "The woman I told you about. The one connected to the people who helped me survive Meridian conditioning years ago.”Lisa's eyes flicked to my face, lingered there, then dropped back to her lap as though she couldn't stand the sharpness in my expression."As we all know, the Meridian used conditioning to control Cameron's mind," Kieran continued, his voice dropping into that steady register he used when trying to keep a room from breaking apart. "And they've

    Cassidy POVGeorge watched my hands through the rearview mirror as I kept them pinned flat against my knees. He had just cleared us through the checkpoint at the outer perimeter. The heavy gates took their time grinding along the track, and the delay made the air inside the sedan feel thick. I pushed the passenger door open, my boots hitting the gravel, and stood under the afternoon sun to look at Kieran's mansion.The building was massive, white stone pillars rising three stories to meet a flat tiled roof. Four armed guards in identical dark jackets stood by the main archway."All clear," a voice rasped from the radio on the lead guard's hip.George leaned across the console, motioning with a jerk of his chin for me to get back inside. I stayed on the gravel a little longer. My cousin knew as well as I did that this drive would either end with a clean conversation or a complete mess.Ever since Kieran had turned up on my porch, his presence had felt like an insult. It sat in my ches

    Lisa POVThe afternoon passed quietly. Because of the sleep I had missed the night before, I kept drifting off on the living room sofa, my head falling against the cushions. I had a feeling Harry had mixed something into my tea to keep me calm.When I finally woke up, I walked down the garden’s gravel path to clear the fog from my head. By the time I came back through the glass terrace doors, my dad had arrived.My mother, Alpha Kieran, and James were gathered in the living room. My father stood near James, his hands gesturing wildly. When his eyes found me by the door, he stopped, crossed the distance, and grabbed my shoulders before pulling me into a hug that smelled of cold wind and tobacco.“I heard everything. Are you okay? Are you hurt?”I opened my mouth to speak, but he already seemed furious.“I told you not to do it. I told you it wasn’t worth it.”“Richard,” my mother warned.My dad spun around.“This is all your fault. If you hadn’t been drowning in medical bills, Lisa wou

    Lisa POVThe translucent gel Harry squeezed onto my stomach was cold, making the muscles across my abdomen tighten. He pressed the transducer against my skin, moving it in small circles over my lower belly. The monitor displayed gray, shifting shapes that blurred whenever I took a breath.After Cameron left, the crying clogged my throat until my mom turned from the window and snapped that I was going to make myself sick if I didn’t get a grip.“What if he had done worse?” I kept saying, my knuckles digging into the edge of the mattress. “What if he had a knife or something dangerous? What if he killed me?”“Well, he didn’t,” she said. She reached into her pocket, pulled out a tube of wintergreen ointment, and began rubbing the thick cream into my palms to warm them. Harry kept his eyes fixed on the gray screen, moving the probe without a word.I blinked, clearing the moisture from my eyelashes. “But why? Why would they send him to hurt me?”My mother stopped rubbing my hands. Her mout

    Cameron POVMy fingers tightened around the steering wheel as one of the guards climbed into the passenger seat. The headlights of the van behind us came alive across the gravel as I pulled onto the dark road.The drive home barely registered. Time kept vanishing. One moment I was staring at the white lane markings, the next the Alpha estate gates were opening in front of me.The guard beside me kept glancing toward my face, his boots shifting nervously against the floor mat, but I ignored him.I slammed the car door and walked into the mansion. I hadn’t even reached the staircase before Evangeline stepped out.She wore a dark fitted dress, her hair pinned tightly despite the late hour.Her eyes narrowed when she saw me. The pain behind my forehead throbbed harder.“Please,” I muttered, lifting a hand. “Not now.”“What did you do?” she asked sharply. “I can smell her on you.”“Eva, I have a headache.”“Do you have any idea how much you’re hurting me?”She stood rigidly near the stairs

    Cameron POVI sucked air into my lungs in ragged pulls. The blood vessels behind my eyes throbbed in time with the rush in my ears.Everything in the room looked warped. Alpha Kieran and Harry stood in front of me. Their lips moved, but the words came too fast, blending into a flat drone my brain couldn’t piece together.Lisa stood near Kieran’s shoulder, her chin tucked into her chest as she sobbed. Every time my eyes drifted toward her, a knot tightened behind my breastbone. The sound of her crying scraped against the inside of my skull.I raised my right hand and wiped a smear of warm fluid from the groove above my lip. I looked down at my knuckles. The skin was split where I had driven my fist into Kieran’s jaw. I stared at the blood on my skin, the reason for the blow completely missing from my head. The room was just noise.“Look at me, Cameron.”Kieran’s palm struck my cheek lightly, pulling my focus back to him. I tried to hold his gaze, but Lisa’s mother wrapped an arm around

    Nadia “Open your eyes.”Desmond covered my face and whispered near my ear. “Don’t peek.”“I’m not peeking.”“You always peek.”“That was one time.”He laughed and stepped away.“Alright. Look.”I opened my eyes. A car waited in the driveway, polished to a mirror shine. A red ribbon stretched acros

    LisaA heat sat under my skin and refused to die. No matter what I did, Cameron stayed in my head.Franklin buried himself in logistics. He came in late and left before sunrise.

    “How much longer are they going to keep us waiting?” James asked.We were at the family court, waiting for the elders inside the chamber. More than two hours had passed. James paced the hallway while I sat on the bench. Even with the doors closed, their authority pressed into the air.The presiding

    “There’s honey garlic chicken and mashed potatoes. Do you want some?”I nodded.Lisa moved around the counter, pulling plates from the microwave and setting them on the table. She set one in front of me and took the seat across from me. I started eating while she watched, neither of us speaking. Th
