"Seth's pregnancy is basically a miracle," she said, unbothered. "We were both told conception was impossible. When Alex's tests came back fertile, Mom threw a party. For his sperm." She rolled her eyes. "Birth rates have been tanking for years because of it."

"If it's that broad, forcing more presentations doesn't fix the root problem."

She hesitated, then went for it anyway. "The drug isn't just for Syns. It's viable on other compatible species too."

Kai stared. "That's illegal. That's a trea

    "He's crying," Kai said flatly, eyes fixed on nothing. "Obviously. He just lost his kid.""There's actually something you both need to hear before this goes further," Jimmy said, glancing between them, clearly dreading it. "Doc who examined him, she flagged the tissue. Said the miscarriage pattern doesn't match blunt trauma. Said it looks more like something chemical triggered it. Something already in his system before tonight."The room went silent.Kai's head turned slowly toward Alex. "What does that mean?"Alex's jaw locked. He already knew some buried part of him, since Daisy mentioned the trial batch weeks back. "It means someone dosed him. Before the attack even happened.""With what?" Kai's voice had gone dangerously quiet."The chemist's compound. The one meant to force presentation." The words tasted like ash coming out. "It's not supposed to be live yet. It wasn't supposed to touch anyone outside the approved trial.""You knew this existed," Kai said slowly, "and you didn't

    Was he actually jealous of his own sister? Surely not."Got cornered by Marco earlier," Kai told Seth, catching what might've been a low growl from behind Daisy. "Not holding it against you.""Heard it differently," Seth said."Oh?""Heard you caved.""Haven't done anything yet." A lie, and they both knew it but Kai wasn't folding until things were settled properly. That meant winning the other bet first.He could still win it. Losing one round didn't mean total surrender. Just had to hold out until Alex's rut actuallyChrist. That is not how a person should be thinking about this.They rejoined the group Daisy, Alex, Jimmy, three familiar guards."Lots of backup for a family outing," Kai observed, as a family with two small kids raced past shrieking, oblivious to the muscle standing around.Daisy slipped free and looped her arm through his. "Told him this isn't Berlin. You know how he gets it."He steered her toward check-in, where glow sticks lit the dark in scattered neon and the

"The drug isn't just for Syns. It's viable on other compatible species too."Kai stared. "That's illegal. That's a treaty violation.""Which is why Altair's pulling Berlin from the Melbourne Clan entirely.""That leaves you exposed.""To protect Chad from becoming collateral, a deal was struck with your next in line. Gabriel and Felix are brokering it with Altair directly. Your planet stays protected. In exchange, the ancient family and Omar clean out the Clutch.""What?"She gave him an odd look. "The trafficking ring. Been in the news for years."Maybe he'd heard it in passing. He looked away."This reshapes m

    Wet clay spun under Kai's palms, the turntable's hum swallowing the noise of students packing up. Class had ended minutes ago. Even the professor was gathering her things.He stayed locked on the lump of pale clay, shaping it toward the empty spot on the side table between Alex's two reading chairs. He'd fought the urge to make something for that space specifically. Lost, obviously.That was just how his brain worked once an idea lodged itself there, it stayed until finished.He'd booked extra studio time, anticipating this. Two other students lingered too, fewer than expected given how little time remained before the room closed for good.He had his own private studio, technically. I usually preferred the quiet there. But some part of him worried Alex might show up uninvited and a bigger part of him didn't trust himself to say no if he did.Two days since they'd last seen each other. Alex kept his word about texting, the occasional call, but nothing in person. Conversations stayed

    "A what? Don't you need connections to some major syndicate for that title?" Marco laughed it off easily. "Come on, he's intense, sure, but my brother""So he never mentioned where he's really been the last four years."Had he planned to tell them himself? Had Kai just detonated something that wasn't his secret to break?Good, honestly. Let something finally catch Alex off guard for once."Talk to him," Kai said, leaning into the wall as exhaustion finally caught up with his nervous system now that he was somewhere familiar. "There's more here than either of us knew."Marco's nerves were written plainly across his face now. "Kai. What exactly did my brother pull you into?"Kai shut his eyes, unsure where to even start despite bringing it up himself."Hey." Marco didn't touch him, but his voice had gone thin with real fear. "I fought this from the start because it felt unfair to you. You've wanted him for years without ever seeing what he keeps buried. I give him hell constantly, but h

    Marco's words landed like ice water. "You texted saying you were with Alex. Last time I saw you, it was some other alpha entirely. Then the Rossis dropped off the map completely, and yeah I started losing it a little."Kai's stomach bottomed out. "The whole family?"Because Emma was already dead. He'd hoped Alex would keep that contained. Quiet. Not spiral into something that swallowed an entire household."Nobody's saying much officially. The case closed fast the second they found her dad tangled up in a trafficking operation." Disgust flickered across Marco's face. "Bribes, abuse of power, the works. Between us? Hope it hurts, whatever gets him." His eyes drifted to Kai's neck again, lingering. "Rumor's he bolted. Emma seemed normal enough, but""She wasn't." Kai's voice came out harder than intended."Figured. Three exes surfaced within a day of the story breaking. Paid-off silence, years of it." Marco's mouth flattened into a grim line. "Rotten tree, rotten fruit."Kai exhaled.
