Iris’s POV

Something was wrong.

The first sign was so small that I almost missed it.

It was like a faint tightness in my stomach. It was nothing to worry about.

Earlier, I had seen the food tray sitting in the hallway like it had been these past few days. And as usual, no one waited around after that one soft knock. I didn’t think twice. I brought it inside, sat down, and ate without hesitation.

When I finished eating, I pushed the empty plate aside, and rested against the pillow. Suddenly, it started. It was like something was twisting deep inside me. I thought maybe it was because I had eaten too fast. That happened sometimes.

But the twisting got tighter and tighter.

I sat up slowly, frowning.

Cold sweat ran down my head, and the room tilted.

I blinked hard, trying to focus, but my vision was getting blurry. My heart pounded very fast against my chest. I pressed a hand to my stomach with a small grunt.

Something was wrong.

I dragged my legs out of the bed and tried to stand. My kne

  • Too Late, Alpha: The Mate He Never Wanted    Chapter 45

    Iris’s POVPanic surged through me as I struggled to do something, anything at all. But my body was too weak to respond.This is it, I thought to myself.I had no wolf to heal me. I had no strength to crawl. Maybe this was the way it was meant to be. Maybe I was meant to leave this way.Tears welled up in my eyes. My breathing grew shallow as my lungs struggled to work. My vision darkened.A memory flashed through my foggy mind.I could hear a little girl’s laugh. I knew that laugh. I could never forget it.It was Evie.Her face appeared above me, just as I remembered her. With her big, bright eyes, her tiny nose, and a large grin on her face.“Mama,” she said, grinning widely.My lips trembled as I stared at her. I wanted to tell her that I missed her, that I was sorry.Warmth spread in my chest, replacing the burn from the poison.If this was death, maybe it wasn’t so bad. Maybe I could stay here with her.Her little hand reached out for mine, and I tried to lift my arm. My fingers

  • Too Late, Alpha: The Mate He Never Wanted    Chapter 43

    Iris’s POVThose words stuck with me long after Asher left. Several emotions raced through me, and I felt so confused.However, to my surprise (and great relief), Jasmine didn’t come back for the tour that day. That evening, there was a soft knock on the door. I called out, but no one answered. After a minute or two, I stood up slowly and walked to the door. When I opened it, I found a tray of food sitting neatly on the floor.The hall was empty.I glanced up and down, but there wasn’t a single person in the hallway. I couldn’t even hear the sound of footsteps. I took the tray inside with a small frown on my face. Whoever had left it clearly didn’t want to be seen delivering it.I stared at the tray for another minute, debating whether it was even wise to eat the food when I didn’t know who had placed it there.It could be Chloe, I thought with a shiver. Maybe she had decided to poison me to get me out of the way.Or… it could be Rowan.That thought sent a different kind of shiver do

  • Too Late, Alpha: The Mate He Never Wanted    Chapter 42

    Iris’s POVI couldn’t hold it anymore. I burst into laughter. It started as a small snort, but it became an uncontrollable laughter that shook my whole body. Pain shot through my ribs, but I still couldn’t stop. Tears pricked my eyes as I clutched my side, gasping for breath.Chloe’s head snapped toward me, her face twisting into a glare so sharp it could kill. My laughter only made her angrier.“Glad you find this amusing,” she snapped, her voice dripping venom.I tried to respond, but another wave of laughter hit me, and I was too busy trying not to fall over.With a sharp scoff, she turned again and left, slamming the door so hard it almost shook the frame.The man stood there for a moment, staring at the closed door, then he shivered dramatically. “God, I really hope she never becomes Luna… or I’m in so much trouble.”That set me off laughing again, though I quickly tried to control it before I destroyed my ribs completely.Silence finally settled between us, and I blinked at th

  • Too Late, Alpha: The Mate He Never Wanted    Chapter 41

    Iris’s POV“What are you snapping out of?” a voice said from the door.My breath caught.I looked up and immediately groaned.Of course. It had to be Chloe. How didn’t I hear her? Was I so lost in thought?She stood at the door with her arms crossed over her chest, and her blond hair curled to perfection. She had that familiar sneer glued to her face.“What do you want?” I asked, not bothering to hide the exhaustion and irritation in my voice.She smiled sweetly. “Just came to check on the little stray that everyone has been fussing over.”I didn’t respond.She tilted her head. “You know, it’s funny. You’ve only been here for a few minutes, and already you think you matter. You’re even talking back at me.”I released another groan in response.She didn’t take the hint. “I just thought you should know,” she said, walking into the room, “Rowan is mine. We’re getting engaged soon.”I blinked. Then I blinked again.“Congratulations,” I said flatly. “What does that have to do with me?”Chl

  • Too Late, Alpha: The Mate He Never Wanted    Chapter 40

    Iris’s POVI stared at the closed door for a long time, my mind spun with several thoughts.Show me around?I clenched my fists tightly as my heart slammed against my ribs. For days, this room had been my safe hiding place. Every time the door opened, I braced myself. And now, I was supposed to willingly walk out into the pack?It was getting harder to breathe.Jasmine’s voice echoed in my head. “You’re not a prisoner.”It made me feel worse, because now it was my choice.If I stayed locked in here, it wouldn’t be because someone forced me. It would be because I didn't want to face what was outside.I swallowed hard.I needed to calm myself down and think clearly.Immediately I finished eating and taking the meds, I threw off the blanket.I swung my legs out of the bed and slowly stood. Pain flared in my side, but it was manageable. I took a few slow steps with one hand on the wall for support.My legs still trembled, but they were stronger than before.I limped slowly to the window.
