Lana's POV

The word “space” hung between us on the grimy city sidewalk, and I watched as it curdled in Bastien’s mind. The wounded confusion in his eyes didn’t soften into acceptance; it hardened into something defensive and suspicious. The shift was subtle, a predator sensing a new kind of trap.

“Space,” he repeated, the word flat. He took a half-step forward, closing the distance I’d created. The vulnerability was gone, replaced by a sharp, scrutinizing intensity. “Or is it not space you w

  • Wanted By The Alpha And His Brothers   Chapter 164

    Lana's POVThe bond doesn't warn me.It announces.One moment I am lying in the healer's quarters with one hand pressed flat against my stomach, feeling the faint, steady flutter of new life beneath my palm, letting myself exist in the strange, quiet miracle of it. The next moment, the connection that has been fragile and wounded and barely alive for weeks suddenly ignites. Not with the tentative warmth of before, not with the careful, cautious pulse of something healing. With the raw, undeniable force of something that has made up its mind.He is coming.I sit up so fast the room tilts. Kaelia reaches for me immediately, her hands steady and sure, but I am already swinging my legs off the bed, already reaching for the clothes folded on the chair beside me, already moving with a certainty that has bypassed thought entirely."Lana, what—""He's here." I pull on the clothes with hands that are not quite steady. "Ronan. He's crossing the boundary right now."Kaelia's face goes pale. "He

  • Wanted By The Alpha And His Brothers   Chapter 163

    Ronan's POVThis has been an unrelenting nightmare.That is the only word for it. Nightmare. The kind that does not end when you open your eyes, the kind that follows you into waking and sits beside you through every hour of the day, patient and immovable, waiting for you to accept that this is not a dream you get to leave.Thornwood's lawn is in chaos behind me. Wolves arguing in tense, fractured clusters. Council members demanding explanations. Pack elders calling for order that no one is listening to. The alliance that was supposed to hold everything together has cracked down the middle, and the fractures are spreading, and somewhere beneath all of it, Gideon's shadow still stretches over everything, patient and poisonous and utterly without remorse.I am standing in the middle of it and hearing none of it.Because the bond just changed.Not gradually. Not the slow, cautious warming I might have noticed if I were paying attention. It hit me like a physical blow, like something enor

  • Wanted By The Alpha And His Brothers   Chapter 162

    Lana's POV The words have been replaying non stopped in my head. Pregnant. It's not a word I ever associated with myself. Not in the abstract future I sometimes imagined, not in the desperate fantasies I let myself have during those brief, beautiful weeks with Ronan. I was Lana, the human who stumbled into a world of wolves. Lana, the Fox with power she didn't understand. Lana, the woman who walked away from love because it was killing her. Not Lana, the mother. That seemed very different and new. The healer has stepped back, giving me space. Maison stands at the foot of the bed, his face carefully controlled but his eyes betraying a storm of conflict. Kaelia hasn't moved from my side as her hand grips mine with a fierceness that would be painful if I could feel anything beyond the roaring in my ears. And then I feel it. The Fox power that's been surging and retreating, through the body that's been fighting to sustain itself, through the connection I didn't know existed until

  • Wanted By The Alpha And His Brothers   Chapter 161

    Lana's POV In one moment, the lawn is filled with wolves elders, warriors, allies, enemies all frozen in the aftermath of Gideon's chilling declaration. The next, chaos erupts. Voices rise in accusation and fear. Wolves shift, their wolves rising to the surface in response to the threat they sense but don't understand. Someone screams. Someone else shouts for order, for calm, for someone to do something. I don't stay to watch. The moment Gideon disappears into the manor, something inside me shifts. Not gradually. Not gently. It's like a dam breaking, like a wound opening, like every ounce of power I poured into saving that baby suddenly reverses direction and floods back into me all at once. I gasp, my hands flying to my chest. The world tilts. What the hell is happening? The power isn't lightning anymore. It's not Fox fire either. It's something deeper. Older. It feels like the earth itself is flowing through my veins, like the sky is pressing down on my skin, like every truth

  • Wanted By The Alpha And His Brothers   Chapter 160

    Ronan's POV The silence after truth is heavier than any sound. For a long, suspended moment, no one moves. The wolves on the lawn, elders who've seen centuries, warriors who've faced death, allies who came to celebrate a union, stand frozen, their faces a gallery of shock, betrayal, and dawning understanding. The truth Lana revealed hangs in the air like smoke after an explosion, invisible but impossible to ignore. Finn is on his knees. I don't remember him falling. He's just there, in the grass, his head bowed, his shoulders shaking with sobs or laughter, I can't tell which. The lightning that held him has dissipated, but he doesn't run. Doesn't move. Just kneels in the wreckage of his choices, waiting for the axe to fall. The pack turns. I feel it before I see it, the shift in allegiance, in loyalty, in the invisible bonds that tie wolves to their Alpha. The Lancaster warriors who stood beside me through every trial, who accepted Jessica as their future Luna, who believe

  • Wanted By The Alpha And His Brothers   Chapter 159

    Lana's POV The silence is worse than the screaming. For a moment, a single, eternal moment, the world holds its breath. The wolves on the lawn freeze mid-motion. The churning sky pauses its relentless dance. Even the lightning, my lightning, seems to wait, uncertain. And in that silence, I feel it. The baby's heartbeat isn't faltering anymore. It's stopping. Not completely, there's still a flicker, still a thread of life fighting against the darkness but the rhythm is gone. The strength is fading. The child I've been connected to for weeks, the innocent life at the center of this nightmare, is dying. No. The word isn't spoken. It's felt. A denial so profound it shakes the foundations of my soul. I move before I think. Before I calculate. Before I consider the consequences. My feet carry me across the grass toward Jessica, toward the baby, toward the only thing that matters in this moment. Jessica looks up as I approach, her face a ruin of tears and terror. For once, there's no

  • Wanted By The Alpha And His Brothers   Chapter 73

    Lana's POV I forgot he was a wolf and not just a wolf but Ronan's brother. The scent would definitely give it away even if anything else didn't. Bastien’s question hung between us, a landmine I’d tripped with my clumsy lie, stupid lie. His eyes, usually so warm and trusting, were sharp with a hurt

    Lana's POV It was my first day at work and well it was a lot since I had been away fromn working for so long. It buzzed with a different kind of energy. Not the electric fear of the supernatural, but the nervous-excited hum of a new beginning. Bastien dropped me off a block away, his jaw tight.

    Lana's POV He was arrogant. That one was for sure out of the way. I felt the heat in my cheek cool because a smug man in a tailored suit wasn’t going to make me crumble. I straightened my shoulders, the papers now neatly secured in my hands. “Being early is a sign of respect for other people’s

    Ronan's POV The engine was cold. It ran on the frozen fuel of my will, and it was starting to grind. Kaelia stood before my desk in the east-wing office, her report delivered in a crisp, professional tone. “Finn’s movements are routine. Perimeter checks, drills with his team, meals in the hall.
