*"So tell me,"* Dan said, his voice unhurried, almost bored, as if he were discussing the weather instead of dismantling a man's soul. *"What makes you think you deserve Mathew?"*

Silius opened his mouth, but no sound came.

*"You're nothing but a pathetic, whiny little bitch,"* Dan continued, each word placed with surgical precision. *"You've hurt him countless times with your words, and you even sided with his brother whenever the two of them fought. You call that love? You could never love hi

    "Will your obsession ever wear out?" Silius asked one night, voice quiet in the dark of their bedroom, the question sitting between them like something fragile he'd been turning over in his hands for a long time before finally setting it down.Mathew said nothing at first. "....."Silius pressed on, the words coming easier now that he'd started, as though a door somewhere inside him had finally come loose. "Sometimes I think you don't love me at all," he said. "You're just obsessed. Everything you do only reminds me of that.""Our ideas of love are different, baby," Mathew answered finally, low and even. "To you, it may be pure and innocent. But to me, it's about keeping you safe. Keeping you by my side.""I don't feel secure unless you're with me," he went on, the words coming without hesitation, as if he'd said them to himself so many times over the years that they no longer required thought — only breath."As for obsession..." he continued, "yes. I'm obsessed with you. Because I lo

  • The alpha's forbidden desire   chapter 192

    The village Micheal Volkov had spent weeks hunting down turned out to be smaller than he expected a scatter of low rooftops folded into the hills, a lake that caught the morning light like glass, and streets too narrow for the kind of car he usually rode in. It was the sort of place people went to disappear. And someone, clearly, had wanted very badly to disappear.He found him by asking the right questions in the right places, the way he always did. What he hadn't expected to find, when he finally did, was a version of the boy from the photograph so changed that for a moment Micheal simply sat in his car outside a modest little house and did nothing at all.Inside, Mile Graves was trying, with visibly diminishing patience, to cross the length of a small garden path."Wait," he said, breath catching, one hand pressed instinctively beneath the curve of his stomach. "Slow down."Delvin Mortis technically Micheal's personal assistant, though lately he seemed to spend far more hours in

    "No," Mathew said quietly, into the dark.The word came out steadier than he felt saying it, smoothed over by years of practice at hiding things he didn't want seen. Silius's breath caught for the briefest moment a small, wounded sound, more felt than heard."Oooh," Silius murmured, and even in that single syllable Mathew could hear the disappointment folding itself carefully away, tucked back beneath the surface where Silius kept everything he didn't want anyone else to carry."Don't worry about him," Mathew said, pressing his lips briefly to the back of Silius's neck. "He'll be fine."Silius only nodded, silent, and let himself be held.It was a lie. Mathew knew it the moment he said it — knew it with the same flat certainty he knew his own name. Because earlier that day, at his office, across a desk cluttered with contracts and unopened mail, his brother had already told him otherwise.**Earlier that day — At Mathew's office**Micheal Volkov didn't bother knocking. He never did.H

    Earlier that evening, before Mathew came home, Silius sat curled on the small settee in Mateo's nursery, the baby monitor humming faintly beside him, his phone screen the only real light in the room. Rile had gone quiet on the other end of the call for a long moment before Silius finally spoke again, his voice low, almost afraid of being overheard by the walls themselves."I can't run away with my son," he said. "Not from Mathew. He'll find us no matter where we go."There was no dramatics in the way he said it — no tears, no trembling. Just a flat, tired certainty, the kind that came from having turned an idea over so many times in his mind that it had worn smooth, like a stone in a riverbed."And it's not like my parents would help me either," he continued. "Even if he's a jerk, an asshole... I still can't stop loving him. There must be something wrong with me."He looked down at Mateo, asleep in his arms, one small fist curled against his chest, and for a moment the ache in Silius'

    The apartment was too quiet. Mathew Volkov noticed it the moment he stepped through the door, jacket still damp from the evening air, keys still in his hand. Ordinarily this was the loudest ten seconds of his day — Silius calling out a greeting from somewhere in the house, the baby fussing in the background, some small chaos already in motion before Mathew had even taken his shoes off. But tonight there was nothing. Just the hum of the refrigerator and the low gold light spilling out from the living room. He found Silius on the couch. Alone. White hair loose around his shoulders, legs tucked beneath him, phone forgotten in his lap — and no baby in sight. Not on his hip, not asleep against his chest, not anywhere Mathew could see. For a full second, worry threatened to override the strange, guilty spark of relief blooming in his chest. "Where's Mateo?" he asked, setting his keys down on the side table. Silius looked up at him with a slow, deliberate calm that told Mathew every

    Rile noticed it before Silius even realized he'd drifted off."What's wrong?" she asked, tilting her head. When he didn't answer right away, she reached out and tapped his shoulder. "Why are you zoning out?"Silius blinked, the fog in his mind clearing just enough for him to register her voice. "N… nothing," he said, though the word came out too quiet, too unconvincing, to fool anyone who'd known him as long as Rile had.Her frown deepened. "Sili…" She softened her tone, leaning in. "Tell me what's going on."He opened his mouth, then closed it again. Across his lap, Mateo lay still, wide dark eyes fixed on his father's face with the unblinking curiosity only infants seemed capable of, as though he understood far more than a two-week-old baby had any right to.Silius's silence stretched long enough that Rile's expression shifted from concern into something sharper."It's about Mathew, isn't it?"The question landed like a stone dropped into still water. Silius felt something in his ch

    I took few steps backwards as the men stepped forward steadily. Jason snarled. His arms dropped till he held one of my hands in a death grip. I had hoped it wouldn't come to this. The nearest patrol point was miles from where we were. We had ventured deeper into the woods today. Not even a scream ca
