Chapter Thirty-TwoZarina's POVI sat down slowly on the edge of the bed, holding my stomach. Damon had already left, but my heart was still pounding.Why did I feel like I had done something wrong?Elior stood at the window, his arms crossed as he stared out the window. He stood in silence for a few minutes. The air was quiet, except for the wind hitting against the glass and the sound of my breathing. Footsteps came.The door creaked open, and an old man stepped in. His gray hair was contained, and he wore a heavy coat smelling of moon herbs. He carried a small wooden box.He nodded his head very slightly. "Alpha. You called for me.""Yes," replied Elior. "She requires a full check-up."The doctor smiled at me. "May I?"I shook my head slowly. "Yes…"Elior scooted closer and helped me lie back gently against the pillows. He said nothing, but his fingers were tender, careful—like I was breakable and would crumble if he pressed too hard.The doctor opened his case and drew out a few

Chapter Thirty Four : A Moment of Uncertainty”Zarina’s POVThe night was heavy with silence, but inside my chest, everything felt loud. The babies were kicking, reminding me that there was life growing inside of me. As much as I wanted to feel joy, there was a weight in my heart that wouldn’t let me be happy. My wolf was restless, anxious, like she didn’t know where to turn. Was it wrong to want Asher back? Was it wrong to hope that he’d come back, even if everyone said he was gone?I sat on the edge of the bed, my hands rubbing my belly softly. The gentle movements from the babies gave me some comfort, but it wasn’t enough. I still missed him. I still missed Asher. My mind drifted to the past. The way his eyes would soften when he looked at me, how he made me feel safe. But now, he was gone. Gone without a trace.I heard a soft knock on the door, and my heart skipped a beat. I wasn’t ready for any more decisions. I wasn’t ready to face what was coming. But I had no choice.“Come in,

Chapter Thirtt Six : He Came Back"Zarina's POVI was cold.Too cold.Although the fire was lit next to me, I wasn't warm. My hands shook. My tummy was full of a heaviest feeling. The babies had not moved in hours. That scared me the most.I stood next to Elior in front of the whole pack.He gripped my hand. His grip was tight. He stood strong, proud, and ready to accept me as his mate.But me? I didn't want to flee.My heart belonged to another.No amount of guarding he did for me…No amount of vow he swore…He wasn't the one I wanted.I looked up at the full moon. My lips trembled. My body was tired. I was weak.But I said nothing.For the babies.For their safety.Then Elior spoke a word. His voice was booming and strong."Tonight, under the full moon, I take Zarina as my mate. She will be Luna of this pack. And her children will carry the blood of our strength."The crowd cheered. Some wolves howled.But all I had to do was cry.And then I heard it.A deep growl.A growl so low an

Chapter 38 Zarina's POV - ReliefThe pain was too much, It felt like fire was burning inside of me, like something was tearing me apart from the inside out. I shrieked, my voice breaking as I tried to hold on to whatever strength I had left. The doctor, standing beside me, looked helpless, his face pale and pinched. The pack's healer had refused to do anything, not with Alpha Elior's order still ringing in everyone's head."Please," I whispered faintly, barely able to form words. "Please… the babies…"But no one responded. The room was too still, too silent. Where’s Asher…My abdomen burned with pain that engulfed me. I could barely see through tears that blurred my vision. I fought against it. I attempted to push it away, but it was as though the world was conspiring against me, pinning me down in this single moment of weakness."You have to do something!" I heard Asher exclaim. His voice was frustration-filled, and I could hear the panic underlying his words."We can't," the healer r

Chapter Forty: I Want My Throne BackPOV: AsherI didn't plan to bust that packhouse with fury in my heart. But after what he'd done to Zarina, how else could I possibly be?She might have died. My pups might have died.And Elior? Sitting at the head of the table like a victorious warlord. I stepped into the packhouse with Damon at my side. My beta. My brother. My most dedicated friend. He was silent, but I could sense his fury.The guards in front of the entrance did not stop us. They recognized me. Their eyes dropped when they looked at my face. I didn't care what they believed. I didn't care about who saw me.I only wanted to face him.The doors opened and I walked in.The smell of roasting flesh filled the hallway. Warm bread. Stew. Elior was eating lunch. As if nothing had happened. As if Zarina hadn't screamed in pain last night with the healers sitting stiff, too afraid to put their hands on her.He did not look up when I got there.He dunked his bread in stew. Ate. Chewed slo
