Jake

My phone rang in the morning.

I looked beside me. Irina was still asleep, naked under the sheets.

The caller ID didn’t recognize the number. I answered anyway.

“Hello. Who is this?” I asked.

There was silence on the other end.

“Hello?” I insisted, not in the mood for nonsense.

I thought it might be a prank call, and I was about to hang up when I heard a voice. A voice I recognized instantly, even though it made no sense that she would be the one calling me.

“Hi, Jake.”

“Kiara? Is that you?”

“Yes, it’s me.”

I went silent for a moment. A wave of nerves washed over me for some reason I couldn’t understand. Several guesses crossed my mind: Was this about what happened last night? Was she finally going to tell me the truth?

I remained still, but when I saw Irina shift in bed, I knew it wasn’t a good idea to talk with her there. I got out of bed, almost naked, and walked downstairs to the living room.

“I’m listening,” I encouraged her to speak.

Every time I heard or thought about Kiara

    JakeI liked this less than he could ever imagine.Having Thomas and Kiara in the pack was not something I chose freely, the weight of the situation forced me to take responsibility.If he wanted to protect Kiara, he’d have to temporarily accept the proposal until we were done with Kerian and his pack once and for all. Thomas was as prideful as I was, and taking orders was not something he handled well.“I can protect my wife on my own.”I gave him an incredulous look. I folded my arms, ready to shred his stupid idea apart.“Believe me, Thomas: I like this less than you do, but it is what it is. A beta like you, alone… with a defenseless woman to protect and two babies inside her, is too much for you to handle alone. I’m not asking for your opinion. I’m telling you what we’re going to do.”“You can’t come here and tell me that.”“I can, because I’m the father of Kiara’s babies.”“And because you still love her, don’t you?”His words caught me off guard.I could expect any insult from

    JakeI saw through the security camera that someone’s car was parked outside. It was Mom’s car. I quickly opened the door so she could get in. Mom looked at me over her sunglasses, completely useless today since there was no sun.“Get inside now, Mom,” I ordered, and Mom hurried her pace. She knew something was going on.“What are you doing here, son?” she asked as she walked in.But I didn’t answer immediately and instead called Thomas, hoping he wouldn’t be an idiot and actually pick up. Thomas answered just as I was about to hang up.“What do you want? Why are you calling me?”“Come to Mom’s house now. Are you free?”“I’m not free. Why would I go?”“You need to come. It’s important. You’ll get more information when you show up.”I hung up on Thomas.At that moment, I walked away from them and went upstairs to talk to Gregory about the situation.“So Kiara received a message, and you did as well?”“Nobody signed a name, but we know it’s him. He’s playing. We’ll have to do something

    JakeThe silence was so suffocating I could barely breathe. I was driving with Kiara beside me, not speaking, but with my mind somewhere completely different. I wanted to look at her and ask why she had gone so pale, staring at her phone, but I knew she wouldn’t trust me enough to tell me. Kiara had been rejecting me all morning.Even so, something inside me tensed. Kiara didn’t get scared over just anything, but something had unsettled her. I tried to see her phone, but she turned it off immediately.I asked her because I didn’t want to be left wondering. She hesitated for a second, but gathered courage and, angry, showed me what her phone said and accused Irina, but I had a different hypothesis about who it was. Irina wasn’t capable of doing something like that. Kiara looked way too convinced, so I was going to ask her. Her conviction almost convinced me.However, I also received a message, and my suspicions increased.It wasn’t Irina. But what if it was him…?Kerian.The alpha of t

    KiaraAfter having a heavy argument with Jake, I got into his car reluctantly, fed up with him. Jake drove in silence, eyes fixed on the road, his brow slightly furrowed, as if he were upset with me when I hadn’t done anything wrong. If my presence bothered him so much, then why take me? I never understood it. I never knew what to expect from Jake, only that it wasn’t something good. That was the problem: Jake made me feel like I was constantly in quicksand.I had tried to leave in a taxi. I needed distance because being with him during the baby check-up and chemotherapy was too much. I needed air. But he insisted, with that firm tone he used with the pack when giving an order. He said that if I didn’t go with him, he would get into the taxi with me because it was “his way of taking care of me.” Taking care of me? Was this what he called taking care of me?The only person who destroyed everything was the one who wanted to take care of me.As the car moved forward, I didn’t say anythin

    KiaraJake’s words disarmed me because he was right.I felt so much for him that sometimes the guilt wouldn’t let me sleep. I wished it were as easy as stopping loving someone, but Jake’s constant presence and two babies growing inside me didn’t allow me to mourn normally. But I wasn’t going to let him see me falling apart. I had to be strong, like when I decided to leave the city to get away from Jake and the pain.“Don’t you think you’re overanalyzing? It seems like the kiss meant too much for you,” I counterattacked.“That’s what you’d like.”“That’s what I see. We’re alone in this room, Jake… don’t you see it? You don’t have to pretend here with me. I know you’re still in love with me because you said so yourself.”The tension in the room could be cut with a knife. Using his feelings against him was a weapon I had to take if I wanted to shut him up.“Or that’s what I wanted you to believe.”I laughed.“If that were the case, you wouldn’t have run away when I told you last time. Yo

    KiaraI was tired of Jake threatening me with the judge’s order. Manipulating me was never going to generate anything positive between us. If I survived this illness, our children would live between one house and the other, watching their parents hate each other. That wasn’t what I wanted for my kids.I never imagined I would have to go through this. I never thought that one day this would happen to me.Jake wasn’t going to back down. He was as stubborn as I was, and we were both willing to fight. No matter how much I tried to convince him, he had a judge backing up his wishes, and I was simply a rat he enjoyed playing with.“Are you going to deny me the right to be alone while I receive my treatment?” I tried not to lose my calm, but inside I wanted to explode.“I just want to support you.”“Kiara, hi!” said someone behind me. I recognized the voice instantly.It was Dr. Grace, my oncologist. She looked at Jake for a moment, realizing she had interrupted something. Jake used that mom
