Iris’s POV

Jasmine’s words caught me off guard.

“What does that mean?” I asked, instantly perking up in curiosity and slight dread.

She ran a hand through her hair, like she was thinking whether to say something or not keep quiet. She glanced at the door, then sighed. “Exactly what I said.”

I waited for her to speak, narrowing my eyes. “So you’re not telling me to stay away from him?”

“No,” she said again, slower this time. “I’m not warning you for his sake. I’m warning you for yours.”

A chill ran down my spine, and I sat up straighter despite the way my ribs ached. “That doesn’t make any sense,” I said carefully. “Are you trying to say your brother is a bad person? But Rowan’s been… kind to me.”

“Yeah,” she muttered. “That’s the part that worries me.”

I blinked. “What?”

Jasmine walked to the window with her arms folded. Her expression was tight.

“I’ve seen Rowan be many things,” she said slowly. “I’ve seen him furious. I’ve seen him cold. I’ve seen him make decisions that would make

    Iris’s POVI laughed, sitting beside Jasmine. Shane moved to sit on the sofa, also waiting for the story.“It was last night,” I began, feeling my cheeks heat up. “After Henry left. We were talking, and I told him I loved him for the first time.”“You told him you loved him?!” Jasmine interrupted, her eyes wide. “For the first time?”“Yes,” I admitted. “And he was so happy. Then suddenly, he got down on one knee and pulled out the ring.”“What did he say?” Jasmine asked eagerly.I smiled, remembering the moment. “He said that I made him want to live again. That he didn’t ever want to lose me.”Jasmine made a cooing sound, clutching her chest dramatically. “That’s so romantic!”“It was very romantic,” I agreed softly.“And you said yes immediately?” Shane asked with a grin.“Of course I did,” I said. “How could I not?”“You’re going to be Luna!” Jasmine repeated, grabbing my hands excitedly. “This is amazing! When’s the announcement going to be made? When are you telling the pack?”I h

  • Too Late, Alpha: The Mate He Never Wanted    Chapter 173

    Iris’s POVThe next morning, I woke up expecting to head to training, but Rowan told me that Lucas and Asher had some pack business to handle, so training was canceled for the day.Before Rowan left to handle his Alpha duties, he pulled Shane aside. I watched as he spoke to him in a low, serious tone, his hand gripping Shane’s shoulder firmly.“I’m trusting you with the most important thing in my life,” Rowan gritted out. His voice was low, but I could hear his words. “You don’t let her out of your sight. You don’t let her go anywhere alone. You stay with her at all times. Am I clear?”Shane nodded with a serious expression on his face. “Crystal clear, Alpha. I won’t fail again.”“You’d better not,” Rowan warned, his eyes flashing gold briefly. “Because if anything happens to her or our baby while I’m gone, there won’t be anywhere you can hide from me. And nothing will save you from me.”“Understood,” Shane replied firmly.Rowan turned to me then, pressing a kiss to my forehead. “I’ll

    Iris’s POVWe sat like that for a while, just holding each other. I could feel the tension slowly leaving Rowan’s body.“Do you think he’ll be okay?” I asked finally. “Henry?”“Eventually,” Rowan said. “It’ll take time. He’s hurt and disappointed. But he’s a reasonable man. Once the emotions settle, he’ll understand why I made the choices I did.”“And Chloe?”Rowan was quiet for a moment. “I don’t know. Chloe’s always been... intense. She doesn’t let things go easily. But I hope she’ll eventually move on and find happiness somewhere else.”I nodded, though I wasn’t entirely convinced. Something about the way Chloe had looked at me during our last encounter made me think she wasn’t going to let this go anytime soon.But I didn’t want to bring that up now. Not when Rowan had just gotten through a difficult conversation with Henry, and he was finally starting to relax.“Thank you,” Rowan said suddenly.I looked up at him. “For what?”“For everything.” He cupped my face gently, his thumb

    Iris’s POVThe silence was heavy and uncomfortable. I could see Henry struggling with himself, his jaw clenched and unclenched as he tried to find words.Finally, he released a long breath, his shoulders sagging in defeat. “Yes, Alpha,” he said, his voice low.He sighed deeply. “I’m sorry for yelling at your mate and at you. I was... I was out of line. My anger got the better of me, and I disrespected you both in your own room. That was wrong of me.”The apology sounded genuine, filled with regret. Henry looked older and more tired at that moment.He turned to leave, walking slowly with his shoulder hunched.I felt bad watching him go like that. I knew Rowan did too. I could see the tension in his shoulders, the way his hands were still clenched at his sides.Without thinking, I elbowed Rowan gently in the ribs.He looked down at me, confusion in his eyes.I nodded toward Henry’s retreating back and gave Rowan a look.Rowan hesitated for a moment, then sighed. “Henry, wait.”Henry sto

    Iris’s POVHenry stood in the doorway, his chest heaving with anger. Behind him, I could see Asher looking apologetic and helpless. He had clearly tried to stop Henry from barging in but had failed.“Henry,” Rowan said, and I could hear the tension in his voice. He was frozen in place, caught between shock and guilt.“How could you do this?” Henry demanded, stepping into the room. His voice was shaking with emotion. “How could you humiliate my daughter like that? In front of the entire pack? You made a promise, Rowan! A promise!”Rowan didn’t respond. He just stood there, his jaw clenched tight, his hands fisted at his sides.“You called off your engagement to Chloe publicly,” Henry continued, his voice rising. “Do you have any idea what that did to her? What it did to our family? She’s been crying for days! She won’t eat, she won’t sleep—she’s devastated!”Still, Rowan said nothing. The guilt was written all over his face.“I saved this pack!” Henry’s voice cracked. “When you were fa

    Iris’s POVImmediately after I was discharged from the clinic, Rowan never left my side. He was constantly hovering, making sure I was comfortable, asking if I needed anything, checking on me every few minutes.He followed me to training every morning, keeping a sharp eye on my every move.It was so sweet, but it felt a little overwhelming sometimes.“Rowan,” I said gently as we walked back to our room from a visit to the clinic, his arm wrapped protectively around my waist. “I’m okay. Really. You don’t have to worry so much.”“I’m not worried,” he said, but the tension in his shoulders said something else. “I’m just being careful.”I didn’t argue. I knew that what had happened had shaken him just as much as it had shaken me, maybe even more. The thought of losing me and the baby had terrified him, and now he was trying to protect me from everything.When we reached our room, Rowan helped me sit down on the bed even though I was perfectly capable of doing it myself.“Do you need anyth
