Too Late To Love: I'm Gone Alpha Chapter 8
Chapter 8ANTONIOThe file on top of the stack was three weeks old.I knew that without checking the date because I had memorized every file that my assistants had brought in for me concerning my wife Annalisa. This one was from the search team I kept in the southern territories, four men whose sole function was to follow leads that went nowhere and report back to me carefully with the kind of patience that came from knowing that I was a man who did not respond kindly to hearing nothing significant about my wife.I set it back on the stack and looked at my desk.It was not a desk anymore in any functional sense because I had turned it into a museum where anything concerning Annalisa was kept. It was a record. Medical reports on one side, the originals I had eventually obtained from Dr. Faison after three months of pressure and one very unpleasant meeting in which he had looked at me with an expression I had not forgotten and told me that the test I had used to discredit Annalisa had b

Chapter 7THREE YEARS LATERANNALISAThe award was heavier than it looked.I turned it over once in my hands before setting it on the edge of my desk, it was a thick glass disc that was etched with the words "Distinguished Contribution to Inter-Pack Medical Research, Lupine Health Coalition, 2027." My assistant, Priya, had arranged for champagne, which I had not touched, and a small group of my colleagues from the research floor had crowded into the doorway of my office to applaud when the coalition's representative finished reading the citation aloud.I smiled. I had shaken hands. I had said the right things and thanked them for giving me this honour also spreading the achievement to my team who had worked effortlessly as well.Now they were gone, and I was alone with the award and the stack of patient files I had been working through before the interruption.I was a medical researcher. More specifically, I was the lead coordinator of the Lupine Prenatal Stability Program, a researc

Chapter 6ANTONIOChristiana fell asleep a little past nine.I sat in the chair beside her bed until her breathing evened out completely, until the small crease between her brows smoothed and her hand went slack where it had been holding mine. Then I stood carefully and stood at the window for a moment, looking out at the dark grounds, and told myself that this was what mattered. That she was here, and she was unhurt, and in twenty-nine days everything would be the way it was supposed to be.I left the room quietly and pulled the door shut behind me.I had intended to go to my office. There were documents waiting — pack business that had piled up over the last two days while I had been managing the chaos Annalisa had introduced into what should have been a straightforward transition.I was walking past the upper landing of the grand staircase when I heard them.Two of the parlour maids, crouched over the foyer floor below. One of them was wringing out a cloth into a bucket. The water

Chapter 5ANNALISAI carried the warmth of it quietly for the rest of the afternoon.That was the only word for it — warmth. The feeling of being held.Not tenderly. I would not lie to myself about that. His arm had come around me the way a man picked up something he needed to use, deliberate and purposeful. I had known exactly what it was from the moment he said the words. Antonio did not do anything without a reason, and the reason he had pulled me close had nothing to do with wanting me there. He was looking for proof that I was lying.But his scent had come down anyway.That was the thing about Alpha scent. It did not care what the mind intended when it was released. My shoulders had come down before I made any decision to let them. My breathing had changed before I gave it permission. And beneath all of that, I had felt the flutter — small and barely there, a brush of something so faint I might have imagined it, except that I had not. My hand had wanted to go to my stomach. I had

Chapter 4ANTONIOI did not know why I had done it.That was the part that bothered me, even as I watched my mother rise from her chair slowly, not sparing me a single glance as she gathered herself. Christiana followed her, and I caught the brief hesitation at the door — the way she stopped, her eyes finding me, her lips parting like she was going to say something. Then she shook her head, pressed her lips into a thin line, and followed my mother out.The door shut behind them.I stood there in the silence of the room and asked myself why I had snapped over a comment my mother had made numerous times across four years and had never drawn that response from me before.The answer was practical. I had received a check-in message from the elder council this morning, and after yesterday — after Annalisa had essentially threatened me — I had been on edge, watching for signs that she had already gone behind my back. The message had contained nothing alarming, just the standard formality, bu

Chapter 3ANNALISAChristiana’s fake smile cracked. "You can't be serious," she said, her voice trembling—this time with real agitation. Her eyes darted between us, wide and brimming with staged tears. "Antonio... I’m worried. She’s already lying about a pregnancy just to trap you—who knows what else she’ll do if you give her thirty days?"Antonio wrapped a hand silently across her waist, pulling her flush against him. It was a gesture of protection, one I had spent four years craving. "Trust me," he murmured into her hair, his voice softening in a way that made my chest ache. "She can't trap me, Christiana."Then he turned to me, the tenderness vanishing, replaced by a smoldering, visible anger. "And you will prepare the ceremony yourself. Every detail of the handover. The transfer of the Luna title. The guest arrangements. The ritual logistics. You will organize all of it with your own hands, and you will hand it over to Christiana yourself. You will show the pack that this is a
