***CAYDEN’S POV***

I stood before the floor-to-ceiling window, watching rain that had been falling for two days straight beat against the glass. Behind me, the voices of doctors and nurses blurred together as they told her she was ready to be discharged.

But I barely heard them.

My thoughts had already drifted somewhere else. Somewhere far away. Not to the woman lying in that hospital bed after losing my child.

To Ava.

I let out a slow breath and closed my eyes. Everything that had happened kep

    ***AVA’S POV***‘My investigation has uncovered something troubling. We somehow obtained confidential information about your pack from Beta Victor’s custody, and that alone confirms what we both feared—there is a mole within your pack working with him. I don't think it's safe to send the full details through text. I'll have someone deliver everything to you personally, along with the evidence we've gathered so far.’ The message reads along with a sticker.I let out a heavy sigh, gently placing my phone on the shelf before lifting my gaze to the mirror, staring at my own reflection. My hand slowly drifted to my stomach, rubbing around it, the slight bump was now becoming noticeable whenever I wore body-hugging clothes.A lot of strange things had been happening to my body ever since the day I was drugged by Victor. Yes, I was rescued shortly afterward and went through detoxification. And countless tests had been carried out, with every single result coming back normal. The doctors also

    "Cayden."I didn't respond."Cayden!"A hand suddenly grabbed my arm and yanked me backward and immediately I started breathing well.I looked at Liam who was now in front of me, his brows knitted together with worry."You okay?" he asked. "I've been calling your name for the past minute."I drew in several slow breaths, trying to steady myself."Is this about that piece of paper?" he asked. "You've been acting strange ever since you picked it up. Tell me. What’s it about?"I wanted to tell him.I really did.But I couldn't.Liam wasn't just my Beta. He was my brother in every way that mattered. After his family was slaughtered, my parents had taken him in and raised him like their own. If what I suspected turned out to be true...It would destroy him."No," I finally said, forcing a faint smile onto my face. "I was just wondering if I might die before getting the chance to witness your wedding."The worry on his face disappeared almost instantly, replaced by pure annoyance.“No,” I

    ****CAYDEN’S POV****“Give me one good reason to spare your miserable life,” I said, rubbing my temples as a pounding headache threatened to split my skull.Fuck, I feel like shit.I had drunk far too much last night.After Dad’s first strike against me, every project we had in motion was forced to a halt.

Now, we have finally got them.But there was still one thing I couldn't understand.How had they managed to

    “I want to speak with Alpha Louis.” I demanded.“I’m afraid that won’t be possible. As I mentioned earlier, he’s occupied. But still, he gave order that you should be well attended to.” His gaze hardened just enough for me to notice. “Rather like your father was… when our representative came to visit.”“That wasn’t intentional,” I said immediately. “My father had an emergency…”“Apparently, the reason no longer concerns us.” The room fell unnaturally quiet.I bit the corner of my lip, trying so hard to hold my anger back. But Victor, his smile hadn’t changed. Not once.“Alpha Louis doesn’t know about any of this… does he?”“So…” he drawled. “You’ve finally realized I’ve been acting on my own from the very beginning.”He laughed. “I was beginning to wonder how long it would take you. Impressive, Ava Hills.”Alaric’s hand balled into a tight fist, rage flashing through his face. “You…”“Now that you understand my intentions, perhaps we can stop pretending this negotiation is still go

    We had been waiting at the Blue Moon Pack Regional Airport for nearly forty minutes with my suitcase propped against my leg, and now I was in so much discomfort that my calf had started aching from standing in one spot for so long.Before leaving our pack, we’d definitely informed them of our arrival. Someone was supposed to be here the moment we landed—to receive us and escort us through the security checkpoint into the pack’s territory.Instead… nothing.How rude.I glanced at Alaric who tried calling again, but there was still no answer. He sent several messages. Every single one was read, yet none received a reply. And a small part of me began to wonder if this was deliberate.Perhaps they intended to leave us stranded until frustration forced us to return home.If that was really their plan, they had miscalculated. Because this deal was far too important for me to walk away over wounded pride.I unlocked my phone and checked the battery.Twelve percent.Enough to call a cab and b

    "Dad, can you hear me?" His eyes searched the room weakly before finally settling on me. A faint smile touched his lips. “Oh dear..." he whispered. Fresh tears streamed down my cheeks as I looked at him. "I'm so sorry. I had no idea you were going through all this." He gave me a weak smile. "It's alright. I just hate that you had to see me like this." His voice was barely above a whisper. "Don't worry. I'll be back on my feet before you know it." "I'm afraid I can't recommend that," Wilson interrupted. "Even if you recover, you must avoid anything stressful. If you suffer another relapse, it may be much more difficult to save you." "He's right, Alpha," Elder Moore agreed. "I believe it's best if you step back from both your pack duties and the company for a while." "Your health is too important to this pack." "We've done everything we can to keep news of your collapse from spreading. We don't want our enemies seeing this as an opportunity to strike." Elder Moore the

    I couldn’t find it. My eyes scanned the velvet-lined drawers again. Then again. But it’s still not there. Not just the ring but most of my jewelry are missing. My fingers began moving frantically through every compartment. But it wasn’t there. I didn’t care about the wedding ring or the res

    The second I saw her face, something inside me broke. Fresh tears filled my eyes and without saying a word, I stepped forward and threw my arms around her. She didn’t ask what happened nor demand an explanation. She just wrapped her arms around me and held me as if all she knew all I needed right

    I opened my mouth to speak, but no words came out. I could only stare at him in shock and through the corner of my eyes, I caught this triumphant sneer on Natalie's face. “You…you can’t be serious, right? The one who should be leaving right now is..” “No, it’s you.” He turned to face me, after sl
