LOGINKaelyn entered her room quietly, but the moment the doors closed behind her, the composure she had been struggling to maintain completely cracked.Her eyes burned with emotion, humiliation, anger and pain.The baby slept peacefully, completely unaware of the storm surrounding their existence, and somehow that made Kaelyn feel even worse.Kaelyn stared down at the child for several long seconds then she whispered softly.“I did all of this for you" she said, her voice trembled.Ava quietly shut the doors behind them before approaching slowly.The room was warm and elegant, illuminated by candlelight and the soft crackling of the fire, but the atmosphere felt tense.Kaelyn wrapped her arms around herself tightly.“He yelled at me" she said.Ava remained silent while Kaelyn laughed bitterly under her breath.“Alpha Eugene has never spoken to me that way before.”Kaelyn slowly sat down on the edge of the bed while staring blankly ahead.“I know he’s upset, but…” She swallowed hard. “He lo
Becca stood near the foot of the bed with one travel bag hanging from her shoulder and another resting beside her feet.The room around her was still a mess from her frantic packing earlier. Open drawers hung crookedly, dresses were half-folded across the bed, and jewelry boxes sat abandoned on the vanity.But Becca no longer cared. She just wanted to get out.Mira stood near the door watching her anxiously.“You’re seriously doing this.”Becca bent down to zip the second bag completely.“Yes.”“It’s already late.”“I know.”“You’re pregnant.”Becca sighed tiredly.“I know that too, Mira" she said.Mira frowned.“How does running away help your baby?” she asked.Becca laughed softly, but there was no humor in it.“At least my child won’t grow up watching me get humiliated" she replied. The words made Mira’s chest tighten painfully. She looked genuinely heartbroken for her.“I just don’t want you making a decision you’ll regret" she said.Becca’s expression hardened instantly.“The on
Eugene pushed open the doors to his chambers with enough force to make them slam against the walls and the loud sound echoed violently through the massive room.Eugene strode further into the room with sharp, furious steps while dragging a frustrated hand through his hair.Everything was a mess. His breathing was uneven as memories from the healer’s chambers replayed endlessly in his head.The accusation hit him all over again.“Damn it!”Eugene grabbed a crystal glass from the table and hurled it across the room violently. It shattered against the wall instantly.The sound rang through the chambers but it did nothing to calm the storm inside him.He clenched his jaw painfully. He never imagined it would destroy Becca like this. The image of tears in her eyes twisted something viciously inside his chest.“She hates me now,” he muttered bitterly.A low chuckle suddenly echoed from the darker corner of the room and Eugene’s eyes immediately sharpened.Desmond stepped forward slowly from
Becca 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
The garden was the only place in Blackwood that still felt normal.Becca stood barefoot in the damp grass, her toes sinking slightly into the soft earth as the early morning chill crept up her legs. The cold should have bothered her, but it didn’t. She welcomed it because it reminded her she was s
The footsteps stopped just beyond the corner.The sound was subtle but in the suffocating quiet of the servants’ corridor, it landed heavily.Becca’s breath locked in her chest, her lungs refusing to move. Every instinct screamed at her to inhale, to ground herself, but fear had wrapped tight finge
The garden had grown quieter after Hadrian arrived, as if even the birds understood that what passed between them should not be interrupted.Becca’s throat tightened instantly as her mind fully registered the weight of Hadrian’s question.Her fingers curled into the fabric of her dress as she looke
The chambers of Alpha King Desmond were already awake long before the rest of Blackwood Mansion.Desmond stood near the tall mirror carved into the far wall, shirtless, his arms slightly raised as Jack fastened the last clip of his formal breakfast coat.His expression in the mirror, was cold and s
