Jake

It had been two days since Kiara disappeared.

I tried to balance taking care of my children, searching for her, eating enough to stay strong, and sleeping at least three hours, but it kept getting harder. Since she left, everything in my mind had been put on hold, and I could only think about her and my kids, and I didn’t know how to be a father and a good man at the same time. I wanted to be in both places at once, but I always had to take turns.

Sometimes I had to be with my children, an

    KiaraRose waited for me to take a hot shower before accompanying me to the hospital to see my children and have a doctor examine me. She told me that Jake and Thomas had reported my disappearance and that it had been days of constant searching, during which neither of them slept, and they took turns caring for the babies.I felt grateful that both men had taken such good care of my children while I was gone. I could trust them.I spent some time with the babies. Having them in my arms, rocking them, and seeing Juliette being a responsible grandmother and caring for her family recharged my energy.Juliette didn’t hesitate to hug me when she saw me and told me how sorry she was for what had happened to me. I told her how little I knew about Thomas and Jake. The last thing I saw was the war, the gunshots, the screams, the blood.The doctor examined me, and Rose stayed by my side the entire time so I wouldn’t feel alone.“Don’t you have any news about what happened? Do you know anything

    JakeGetting the bullet out with my fingers was nearly impossible.I was nervous, my brother’s life in my hands. I could almost feel my mother’s fury, and Kiara’s, when I told them I couldn’t save Thomas. I could already see the hatred growing inside me toward myself for failing to save him and letting him die.“Damn it! Damn bullet!” I shouted.Thomas was already delirious. He wasn’t thinking clearly and struggled to stay awake. His skin was burning with fever, and his body, besides turning pale, was beginning to show green and purple veins. That was a bad sign.“Tell her I love her very much…” he whispered, and that made me tremble even more. He knew what was coming, and so did I. Thomas wouldn’t last much longer. “She’s the woman of my life… You have to… take care of her. Please,” he begged.“I’ll take care of her, but you’ll be the one to care for her as her future husband,” I said. The words burned in my throat because my heart didn’t like the answer I gave him. But I had to give

    Jake“You have the perfect opportunity to be with her without me in the way,” he told me, fear in his voice.Thomas pretended to be strong, but I knew death scared him, because it had scared me too when I stood in front of it.“Are you seriously thinking about that right now? You’ve got a bullet in you,” I said, tearing his shirt and using it to wipe away the blood pouring out of him.I needed space to clearly see the bullet. I had to remove it, and all that blood was making it impossible to work calmly.My betas had taken down all the members of Derian’s pack. A few were dead, while others were being tortured for information about Derian’s whereabouts.That was one of the differences between Derian and me. I wasn’t a coward who hid behind his pack. I wouldn’t abandon my betas. I would always fight alongside them, like today. I didn’t leave with Kiara. I stayed with them in the war because that’s what a good Alpha does: fight with his pack against injustice.Derian simply ran when thi

    JakeWhen I saw Kiara in that chair —tied up, dirty, and pale— I felt like I could completely lose my sanity. I felt like I could kill everyone, even those who weren’t to blame. But I knew I couldn’t lose my head at that moment because my most important duty was to get her out of there safe and sound. And for that, I needed a bit of my sanity. But the enemies would taste every drop of my fury.I kissed her because I couldn’t bear to see her pale, lonely lips. I felt her mouth as proof that everything was over. I tasted her lips like a reward after spending days without sleep just to find her.And I did. I found her alive.I noticed the lock of hair that had been cut, hidden among the rest of her hair. But I knew every part of her, and I caught the detail. Rage consumed me, and I wanted to kill Derian, though not before torturing him.Thomas came down the stairs and saw us together, but he missed the part where I kissed her, and I felt angry because he didn’t see it. I wanted him to kn

    KiaraI had to start the car, but guilt relentlessly took hold of me. I didn’t want to leave them, but Jake and Thomas had given me a clear order.What if I drove away and they came back right after? I couldn’t just leave like that, so I waited two more minutes. I promised myself that if they didn’t appear within those two minutes, I would leave and do as I was told.But then I heard cracking sounds behind the car, and my instincts forced me to turn around to see who it was. For a brief second, I hoped it was Jake, or Thomas, or both, but that made no sense. They were in the opposite direction.So who could be behind me?Derian.I looked back, gripping the steering wheel tightly in case I needed to drive off. And I saw him. I saw Derian walking slowly toward me with a smile on his face. He wasn’t in a hurry. He wasn’t going to hurt me or kidnap me again, but he was going to scare me and torture me psychologically.I threw the car into reverse.Fear acted for me.I hit him without thin

    Kiara“Where’s the car?” I asked, since I couldn’t see anything.“A few meters from here. We couldn’t just pull up and let them see us,” Jake answered.That was when I noticed Jake’s and Thomas’s clothes. Both of them were dirty, not only with the enemies’ blood, but with mud and grass.“We had to crawl so they wouldn’t see us. The rain helped dull our scent. It took us several minutes to get here, but it doesn’t matter because now we’re going to run to the car,” my boyfriend explained.“If we tell you to run, you run. No looking back, Kiara. No matter what happens. Here...” he pulled the car keys out of his pocket. “You’ll see the car if you keep running straight ahead. Don’t wait more than two minutes for us if we don’t reach you, understand? You’ll have to drive away as far as you can and get help. My phone is in the car, so you can use it to call someone from the pack for backup.”I frowned and shook my head. I didn’t want to do this alone. His words made it clear they wouldn’t be

    JakeWe watched the elevator cameras. We clearly saw how Kiara fell into a trap, but we didn’t know why. Why did she trust the girl? What did she tell her?The blonde was no longer limping when she attacked Kiara from behind with an injection. Kiara collapsed to the floor almost immediately, unable

    KiaraI was in the maternity ward holding Hanna, while Juliette held Blake.“At least these little ones are fine,” Juliette said, gazing lovingly at Blake. “We couldn’t save one, but two babies are safe, and that’s what matters.”“Yes, but the baby is gone, and that’s really affecting Jake. You saw

    JakeMy brother told me he was sorry when he saw me walking toward him. Mom gave me a warm hug to comfort me, but nothing helped. No words, no promises, nothing. Nothing would bring that baby’s life back, much less take away the guilt I carried for not being able to protect my family the way I was

    KiaraAs I angrily made my way back to the maternity ward, a blonde girl approached me.“Excuse me, I don’t want to bother you,” she said, making me stop.“How can I help you?” I asked, smiling kindly, trying to erase the anger from my face.“Are you afraid of elevators?”The question caught me off
