I made my way back to my room, grabbed my jacket and purse, and called for a car service on my phone. The pack had drivers available, but I didn't want to explain where I was going or why. Didn't want the gossip spreading before I even knew what was happening.

The drive to St. Mary's Hospital felt endless. I sat in the back of the car, watching the trees blur past in the darkness, Marcus's words echoing in my head.

Their health deteriorates. Organ failure. Internal bleeding.

Was that what Dr. M

  • The twin Alpha and the Wolfless one    Chapter 92

    Kade's POVThe phone was still in my hand.Sarah's voice continued through it, fragmented sentences, details I wasn't fully processing, the specific tone of someone who had rehearsed this call and was now discovering that rehearsal didn't account for the actual silence on the receiving end.I took a deep breathe The panic that had hit me in the first seconds was doing what panic did when you applied discipline to it.I was an Alpha.I had stood in rooms where people were dying and made decisions anyway. I had delivered news that broke people and kept my voice steady through it. I had learned before I was twenty that emotions were information, not instructions, and that the difference between a good Alpha and a compromised one was the ability to feel something fully and still choose what happened next.I chose.Something locked into place behind my sternum. Cold and deliberate and final.I thought about the last several months. The contract. The pack house. Every complicated, costly t

  • The twin Alpha and the Wolfless one    Chapter 91

    Kade's POVThe evening had been perfect.Not because anything extraordinary had happened. Nothing had. No dramatic revelations waiting in the shadows.Just peace.The kind that settled slowly into the bones until you stopped noticing the weight you'd been carrying before it disappeared.Lyra sat across from me on the couch with her legs folded beneath her, speaking with the quiet certainty she carried into every argument. The lamp beside her cast soft gold across her face, catching the movement of her hands as she talked.I'd discovered early that Lyra spoke with her entire body. Her expressions shifted before her words did. Her fingers moved when she was making a point she cared about. Her eyes sharpened when she expected disagreement.I hadn't stopped watching her since the ball."...which means the eastern route only works if the border remains stable for another three years," she said.I nodded automatically.She narrowed her eyes. "You're not listening.""I'm listening.""You're

  • The twin Alpha and the Wolfless one    Chapter 90

    Ariana's POVDr. Reeves used the word "immediately" three times in the same conversation.Immediately as in today. Immediately as in we cannot wait another week for the numbers to improve on their own. Immediately as in the window for effective intervention is not as wide as it was six months ago and we need to stop treating it like it is.I sat in the examination chair after they'd gotten me back into it and listened to her explain the chemotherapy protocol with the focused attention of someone determined to understand what was happening to their own body even when the body was making that determination difficult.Side effects, she said. Fatigue beyond what I was already experiencing. Nausea. And hair loss.I nodded through all of it.Thomas drove me home in silence. He didn't ask what had happened inside. He turned the heat up without being asked and kept his eyes on the road and delivered me to the neutral house with the quiet competence that had become one of the fixed points of m

  • The twin Alpha and the Wolfless one    Chapter 89

    Ariana's POVThe house was beautiful There are neutral walls. Good furniture. A kitchen equipped with everything and carrying the particular sterile quality of a space that had been stocked rather than used. The kind of house that existed as a function rather than a home, maintained against the possibility of being needed without being shaped by anyone who actually lived in it.I stood in the living room on the first evening with my bags at my feet and looked at it.Then I told myself it was enough. It was warm and it was safe and it had a bathroom with hot water and a bedroom with blackout curtains and a lock on the front door that answered to nobody's authority but mine.After the last several months, that last part was not a small thing.---Fitting into the human world was harder than I'd anticipated.I was tired in ways the human world didn't have good language for.The cancer had its own schedule and the human world ran on a different one, and reconciling them required a dail

  • The twin Alpha and the Wolfless one    Chapter 88

    Ariana's POVThe decision came from a direction I hadn't anticipated.I'd spent the hours after Kade and Kane's visit in the particular stillness of someone who had received news too large to process immediately and was waiting for their system to catch up. The bags on the floor. Sarah's immovable presence beside the bed. The twins' disagreement conducted in compressed twin-language over the foot of my hospital bed.I'd closed my eyes eventually and let the medication do its work and told myself that tomorrow was a problem for tomorrow.Tomorrow arrived faster than expected.Aldric Ashford came to the infirmary at seven in the morning.He came alone, no pack escort, no administrative framing around the visit. Just the man himself, carrying two cups of coffee from somewhere outside the infirmary's capabilities, setting one on my bedside table with the matter-of-fact ease of someone completing an ordinary task.He sat in the chair Sarah had occupied and looked at me with the direct asse

  • The twin Alpha and the Wolfless one    Chapter 87

    Ariana's POVKade set the bags down first.Carefully, deliberately, the way he did everything.Kane set his down without the same consideration.The sound of luggage hitting the infirmary floor was quiet and final and somehow the loudest thing I'd heard all day.I looked at the bags. Then at them. Then back at the bags with the methodical calm of a person whose body had apparently decided it had spent all available resources on the physical crisis and had nothing left to deploy against an emotional one.Kade pulled the chair close to the bed — the one Lydia had vacated, and sat in it with his elbows on his knees and his hands loosely clasped and his eyes finding mine with the expression of a man who had rehearsed something and was discovering in real time that the rehearsal hadn't prepared him for the actual moment."Ariana," he started."Don't," Kane said from behind him.Kade's jaw tightened. "Kane—""Don't soften it." Kane moved to the foot of the bed, arms crossed, the controlled

    "Because she's not just anything," I said. "She's brave and stubborn and fights every day against a disease that should have killed her already. She's taken abuse from your wife and pack without complaint because she didn't want to make things harder for Kane and me. She's dying and she's still mor

    Ariana's POVMorning came too quickly.I hadn't slept despite the medication Marcus kept pumping into my IV. Every time I closed my eyes, I heard Elena's voice: 'Execution will pass with a strong majority.'The twins had stayed with me through the night, taking turns holding my hand, their presence

    *Ariana sat across from them in the hotel room, the contract between them on the table. She looked small and afraid, but determined.**"There's something I need to tell you before we do this," she said. "Something that might change your mind about the contract."**"We're listening," Kade said.**Sh

    Kade appeared on my other side, his hands already working on the buttons of my bloodstained sweater. "They tried to break you. We're going to put you back together." "I'm not broken," I protested, even as my body responded to their proximity, heat pooling low in my belly despite the pain. "No,"
