LOGINBecca slammed the bedroom door so hard behind her that the sound echoed violently through the hallway outside.The moment she entered the room, the control she had desperately maintained downstairs completely shattered.She grabbed the nearest pillow from the bed and threw it across the room furiously.“I hate him!”Her voice cracked halfway through the scream. The luxurious bedroom that once felt comforting now felt unbearable.Becca wiped angrily beneath her eyes before storming toward the wardrobe. She pulled the doors open aggressively, clothes immediately spilled out.“I can’t stay here, I can’t… I can’t do this” she muttered shakily. Her hands trembled violently as she began throwing dresses, shoes, and personal belongings onto the bed carelessly.Tears blurred her vision but she refused to stop.The image of Kaelyn standing there with Eugene’s child replayed endlessly in her mind then Becca let out a bitter laugh that quickly dissolved into a broken sound.“He actually slept w
The silence inside the healer’s chambers became unbearable after the results were announced.The candles flickered softly around the room while the scent of herbs filled the suffocating air, but none of it mattered anymore.“Alpha King Eugene is the biological father of Kaelyn’s child.”The words still echoed inside Becca’s head like a curse.Her chest rose and fell unevenly as she stared at Eugene across the room..Mira slowly stepped closer to Becca cautiously.“Becca" she said but Becca suddenly laughed.“Wow" she let out.Nobody spoke then Becca looked at Eugene again, her eyes burning.“So it’s true.”Eugene’s jaw tightened slightly.“Becca—”“Don’t ‘Becca’ me right now” she snapped immediately. The room tensed instantly. Even the guards outside the chamber seemed to stiffen.Mira looked nervous while Max dragged a hand down his face slowly.“This is bad,” he muttered under his breath.Kaelyn, however, looked relieved. Her arms tightened protectively around the baby as she final
Jack hurried down the grand staircase with uneven breaths, his shoe striking hard against the polished marble steps as anxiety twisted violently inside his stomach.The entire mansion felt restless, servants whispered in corners, guards moved around more cautiously than usual. Even the atmosphere itself felt tense after news spread that the DNA test results had finally been revealed.Jack gripped the railing tightly as he descended another flight of stairs.“Damn it” he muttered under his breath.He had been trying to reach the healer’s chambers ever since hearing the announcement from one of the guards in the hallway.His footsteps echoed sharply as he turned another corner and suddenly a hand grabbed him violently.Before Jack could react, his entire body slammed hard against the wall.Pain exploded through his back and breath nearly left his lungs.“What the—”A large hand clamped around his throat instantly and Jack’s eyes widened.Desmond stood directly in front of him dressed in
Becca walked through the long stone hallway with Mira and Seraphina beside her, her expression cold and unreadable while the sound of their footsteps echoed through the Blackwood mansion.The atmosphere felt suffocating and heavy, like the entire mansion itself was holding its breath.Two guards walked several steps behind them silently, their armor clinking faintly with every movement.Mira glanced sideways at Becca nervously for what felt like the hundredth time.“Becca” she called but she did not answer.Her arms remained crossed tightly over her chest as she continued walking.Mira looked at Seraphina who had a bored expression on her face.“You still don’t have to go if you don’t want to" she said.Becca finally scoffed softly.“And stay in my room imagining every possible outcome until I lose my mind? No thanks” she said.Her voice carried bitterness and Mira sighed quietly.“When the guard came earlier, you practically threw him out" she said.“I almost did more than that,” Bec
The soft golden glow of the afternoon sun poured through the tall windows of Kaelyn’s room, bathing everything in warmth. The dark velvet curtains swayed gently with the breeze, and for the first time in months, Kaelyn finally felt safe.The feeling was unfamiliar after everything she had endured.She sat on the edge of the enormous bed, cradling her little baby carefully against her chest while the child suckled peacefully. Her fingers brushed through the infant’s tiny dark hair, and a smile slowly spread across her lips.“My precious little Alpha, you have no idea how hard your mother fought for you” she whispered softly. The baby made a tiny sound, causing Kaelyn to laugh quietly. The sound of her own laughter almost startled her because it had been so long.Her eyes wandered around the luxurious room, the elegant fireplace, the polished marble floor, the rich scent of sandalwood that always lingered within the Blackwood mansion. Everything here felt so different from the cold pri
Morning sunlight poured softly through the tall windows of Becca’s chambers, bathing the room in warm gold that contrasted painfully with the heaviness in her chest.Becca sat near the edge of the massive mattress wrapped in a cream-colored robe, her fingers absentmindedly tracing the embroidered patterns on the blanket while her thoughts spiraled endlessly.Mira, who had stayed the night beside her so she would not be alone, sat cross-legged farther down the bed watching her carefully.The room itself was unusually quiet this morning.Mira sighed softly.“You haven’t said more than ten words since last night" she said.“I’m fine" Becca replied but she didn’t look at her.Mira snorted immediately.“You also look like you want to stab somebody.”That almost earned a reaction then Becca merely exhaled quietly and looked toward the window.Life inside the mansion continued normally despite how badly hers suddenly felt shattered.Mira softened slightly seeing the pain Becca was trying to
Evening wrapped itself around the safehouse like a dark, heavy blanket. The forest beyond the yard had quieted, the usual chorus of insects dimmed to an occasional chirp. Even the wind seemed to hesitate, moving only in soft breaths that brushed the grass and rattled the gate.Max waited until all
Ava’s sharp gasp still lingered in the air, her hand frozen halfway toward Seraphina’s arm as if she could pull her away from danger by sheer instinct but she was too late.Seraphina’s hand moved with speed as it connected sharply with Lira’s cheek and sent her to the floor."You stupid trash" Sera
“Eugene, wait.”Becca’s voice sliced through the air before he could finish his sentence. Her chair scraped loudly against the wooden floor as she stood up, her breath sharp and urgent.Eugene froze mid-word. Robin, Sax and Dorian blinked in surprise.Becca stepped closer, placing a trembling hand
The kitchen door groaned, a soft protest in the quiet. Moonlight spilled across the threshold in a narrow silver blade, slicing the darkness where the intruder had paused.Eugene held his breath, his hand tightening around the dagger’s hilt. Becca and Mira pressed behind him, like shadows clinging.
