CATRIONA I waited quietly, bracing for his reaction. I had just told him I was returning the money and leaving this house—for good. Jayden’s expression didn’t flinch. “Don’t forget you signed a contract two months ago, Ms. Catriona,” he said, voice cool and unwavering. “You can’t, and you won’t, leave this house before you give birth to my child.” There it was—the cold inevitability I’d feared. I swallowed hard, my heart aching in my chest. “Yes,” I said bitterly. “I remember signing it. I remember everything. But don’t you dare forget that I nearly died because of you.” His brows drew together, but I pushed forward, rage fueling every word. “One of my babies—our baby—is gone. And it’s because of you. Those monsters who abducted me? They did it to get to you. They thought I was your girlfriend. And I didn’t blame them, not entirely. I was pregnant with your child. How did they even know that, Jayden? How?” I didn’t wait for an answer. “I don’t care what past you have with them. I

VANESSA'S POV Before we could finish the spell, a violent surge of energy burst from her, flinging both of us across the room. We hovered midair, stunned by the sheer force of it. “What in the world was that?” my sister, Vivian, gasped. I stared at her, heart pounding. I knew exactly what it was. I saw it in Catriona’s eyes—something ancient, something awakened. If I saw it… Vivian did too. “What happened?” Alpha Jayden asked, his voice sharp. Before we could answer, Catriona began to convulse. Her eyes rolled back until only the whites remained. Panic erupted in the room. “What’s wrong with her? What did you two do?” Alpha Jayden demanded, his voice rising in fury. And then it came—a voice, deep and thunderous, echoing from within Catriona. Her lips never moved, yet the sound filled the air, speaking in a language none of us recognised. We all froze, terror gripping our chests. “That’s just Catriona. She’s toying with us,” Vivian said, brushing it off with forced calm. “Let’s

JAYDEN I dashed into the woods, blindly chasing her scent—but came to a dead stop when it vanished. Her scent stops here… My eyes scanned the trees, the ground, even the branches above, desperate for any trace of her. Nothing. She was gone. Where could she possibly be? Why did she run away? A dread bloomed in my chest. Don’t tell me… her memory wasn’t erased? If that's the case, I’ll never forgive myself. I’ll have to live with the guilt—of killing my children because of my recklessness. My heart will never recover. What should I do now? Let her go in peace? Or bring her back… explain everything… and tell her she’s free to choose her own life? Don’t even think about it, you human. She’s my mate. She’s not going anywhere. She stays by my side. Forever, my wolf growled. I scoffed bitterly. You agreed with me. You knew we couldn't tell her yet. You were with me when I said her memory had to be wiped. He lowered his head at my words. She must despise me, I murmured. She was so ha

CATRIONA I was stunned to find Jayden standing outside my house, soaked in the rain. "How did you know where—?" Before I could finish, he pushed past me and shut the door behind him. My legs trembled as he stood inches from me, his presence overpowering. “Catriona, we need to talk. About what you saw,” he said firmly. I struggled to steady my breathing. “How did you even find out where I live?” Everything about him felt foreign now. After witnessing him transform—shift—into a massive wolf, he was no longer the Jayden I thought I knew. My instincts screamed that I had to get away before he changed again… and killed me. Without warning, I bolted past him and grabbed the landline. “I’m calling the police if you don’t leave my house right now.” “I’m not going to hurt you, Catriona,” he said, trying to stay calm. “I just want you to hear me out.” Is he serious? He expects me to just sit here and listen to a man who turns into a wild animal? In every supernatural book I’ve read s

JAYDEN You’ve got to be kidding me. “What the hell does he think he’s doing—exposing himself to the cops like that?” I muttered, unable to believe Gabriel's recklessness. Try not at all. I knew Gabe was unhinged, but this… this was next level. From where I stood, I could see the officers' wide-eyed expressions—frozen, confused. Werewolves being half-naked was normal in our world. But to humans? Startling. Alarming. “Were you kids playing mature games?” one of the officers asked, skeptical. “Officers!” Catriona whispered-shouted, her voice tight with embarrassment. “Don’t jump to conclusions!” A small smile pulled at my lips when I saw her—flustered, furious, trying to salvage the situation. But the officer wouldn’t let it go. “So you’re saying you weren’t doing what it looks like you did? Then we’ll need to enter and confirm there’s no disturbance inside. Just protocol, ma’am.” Before Catriona could respond, Gabriel—still stark naked—smirked and said, “No need for all the questi
