_Astrid’s POV_

Something was unsettling about mornings in this house. The atmosphere always felt too still, like it was holding its breath, waiting for the next explosion, either emotionally or otherwise.

Today, though, it was different.

I had just finished arranging breakfast on the long dining table, the smell of meat and eggs drifting through the air. Zade and Zarek were already seated at their usual places at opposite ends of the table. Neither of them looked at me. And yet, these days, I felt their presence more than ever.

After that experience at the amusement park, something shifted, I couldn't tell what it was, but it was positive.

On that day, the protective instincts that took over me at the sight of their scared expressions left me in utter shock.

Why did I react that way?

They never treated me well, or maybe they did, just a little.

Still, I shouldn't have felt the way I did that day.

Now we were back and they decided to ignore me. A part of me told me they were embarrass

  • Twins’ Obsession   Chapter 88

    _Author’s POV_Four days after the interview, the letter arrived.It was delivered by a High Council messenger, sealed with the official crest, and everyone in the mansion held their breath as Zade opened it with shaking hands.He read it once. Then again. Then looked up at Zarek and Astrid with a smile.“We got it,” he whispered. “We’re the new Gehman.”The celebration that followed was legendary. The entire pack gathered in the main hall, cheering and howling with joy. Former Alpha Blackwood and Luna Hinary actually cried, hugging both their sons with pride. Beatrice was screaming with excitement, and Gideon was already planning the official ceremony.But the best part was watching Astrid’s face light up with pure happiness as both twins spun her around carefully, mindful of her growing belly.“I told you,” she said, laughing through tears. “I knew you’d get it.”“We got it,” Zarek corrected. “All three of us. This is our victory.”The official Gehman ceremony took place two weeks l

  • Twins’ Obsession   Chapter 87

    _Author’s POV_Two months had passed since Cassia’s departure, and Astrid’s pregnancy was progressing beautifully despite Elara’s initial concerns. Her belly had just started to show, a small bump that both twins were obsessed with touching whenever they could.The pack had fully embraced her as their Luna. Even the wolves who had initially been skeptical had come around, especially after seeing how fiercely protective the twins were of her and how well she handled pack business despite being pregnant.Astrid had proven herself to be a natural leader. She’d established new programs for omega wolves, created a support system for pack members struggling with mental health, and had even negotiated a successful trade agreement with a neighboring pack that had previously been hostile.The pack was thriving under the leadership of the twins and their Luna. Which was why the letter, when it arrived, wasn’t entirely surprising.Zade was the one who opened it, reading it carefully while Zarek

  • Twins’ Obsession   Chapter 86

    _Zarek’s POV_Something was wrong with Astrid.I’d noticed it for a few days now—she’d been tired more than usual, and this morning I’d heard her being sick in the bathroom. She’d brushed it off as something she ate, but my wolf senses were telling me different.“She needs to see Elara,” I told Zade as we stood outside the bedroom door, listening to her throw up again.“Agreed,” Zade said, his face tight with worry. “Something’s not right.”We waited until she came out, looking pale and exhausted. Without a word, I picked her up and carried her to the car.“Guys, I’m fine,” she protested weakly.“You’re not fine,” I said firmly. “You’ve been sick for three days. We’re going to the hospital.”“It’s probably just a stomach bug—”“Or it could be something serious,” Zade interrupted. “Please, baby. For us. Let Elara check you out.”She finally agreed, too tired to argue anymore.The drive to the pack hospital felt like it took forever. I kept glancing at Astrid in the rearview mirror, wat

  • Twins’ Obsession   Chapter 85

    _Astrid’s POV_Three weeks had passed since my birthday, and I was still getting used to being called Luna. Every morning, pack members would bow slightly when they saw me, and it made me feel both honored and awkward at the same time.The twins had been absolutely incredible. They woke me up with kisses every morning, brought me breakfast in bed at least three times a week, and seemed to find new ways to make me feel special every single day. Yesterday, Zarek had filled our bathroom with candles and rose petals just because it was Tuesday. When I asked why, he’d simply said, “Because you deserve beautiful things every day, not just on special occasions.”But not everything was perfect.Former Alpha Blackwood had been avoiding us since the fake Luna ceremony. The twins had invited him multiple times, but he always had some excuse. It was clear he still didn’t approve of me, and it hurt more than I wanted to admit.“We need to talk to him,” I said one morning over breakfast. “Your fath

  • Twins’ Obsession   Chapter 84

    _Astrid’s POV_I chose the midnight blue dress because it reminded me of the night sky, and honestly, it made me feel like a princess. The fabric hugged my body in all the right places, and there was a slit up one side that made me feel dangerously sexy.The twins had insisted on doing everything for me today. Zarek had arranged for a professional makeup artist and hairstylist to come to the mansion, and now my hair was styled in loose waves that cascaded down my back, with small crystals woven throughout that caught the light when I moved.“You look absolutely breathtaking,” Zade said when I finally emerged from the bedroom.Zarek just stared at me, his mouth slightly open, before finally managing to say, “Fuck, you’re gorgeous.”“Language,” I teased, but I was blushing.They both looked incredible too. Matching black suits that fit them perfectly, though Zarek had skipped the tie and left the top buttons of his shirt undone, showing off his tattoos. Zade wore his tie but had rolled

  • Twins’ Obsession   Chapter 83

    _Author’s POV_The next morning, Astrid woke up to find both twins acting extremely suspicious. They kept whispering to each other when they thought she wasn’t looking, and Gideon kept showing up at odd times with papers for them to sign.“What are you two planning?” she asked over breakfast.“Nothing,” they said in unison, which was definitely a lie.“We’re just handling pack business,” Zade added.“Very important pack business,” Zarek confirmed.Astrid rolled her eyes but decided to let it go. If they wanted to surprise her, she’d let them have their fun.What she didn’t know was that the twins had mobilized their entire pack for operation “Best Birthday Ever.”Gideon had been tasked with the investigation portion. He’d hired a private detective to dig into Astrid’s past, looking for anyone who had been genuinely kind to her. The detective had found three possibilities: Miss Blackthorn, an elderly woman who had run one of the shelters Astrid had stayed at and always made sure she ha
