Semua Bab Two Loves, One Destiny: Bab 111 - Bab 120

JakeI met with the pack to talk about the enemy.“We’re going to search their pack’s hideout. We’ll have to go in groups of at least seven each time and investigate. Meanwhile, the rest must continue protecting the family and each other. We know we’re facing armed wolves, wolves who have no respect for the lives of other packs. Using silver bullets against someone of our own kind is an aberration, but they don’t care about codes, and that can cost us our lives. They almost took mine,” I finished, holding the attention of most of them.Not everyone was at the meeting because everyone had a task to fulfill, and I had no intention of leaving Kiara or my mother without protection.Irina was safe because she was at home with me. We weren’t talking —we didn’t exchange a single word— but we were still living under the same roof.The last time I spoke to her was to hand her the divorce papers I’d said I would file, but I had to admit something, no matter how stupid it was: I didn’t want a di

JakeI ran into Jake in the neonatal intensive care unit almost by chance, even though I knew we were both looking for the same thing. I was standing in front of one of the incubators when I felt his presence beside me. He didn’t look at me right away. Neither did I. We spent a few seconds silently watching our children, as if that space demanded respect even when it came to speaking.When we left the room, something changed. Jake walked beside me, but he was distant, just like he’d been the past few days. It was as if being with our children brought us together, but once the visit ended, Jake emotionally pulled away and seemed to hate me, and that was uncomfortable. I don’t know why he told me we could be friends if he was going to treat me like this. I don’t understand what I was even expecting from all of this.He walked with his shoulders tense, his gaze fixed straight ahead. He was no longer the same man from minutes earlier, the attentive father who spoke softly to the babies. H

Kiara My body was leaning toward his, my hands gripping his leather jacket mercilessly. Jake was kissing me with an urgency that stole my breath, and I responded without thinking, letting myself be carried away by everything I had tried to deny for far too long. In that kiss, everything was laid bare: the very lies we told ourselves to hold it all together.I felt the clear, direct, almost violent impulse to want to sleep with him right there. In the car. Not caring about anything else. Without protection, in broad daylight. I wanted to be wild because that was what Jake awakened in me. The thought crossed my mind without filters, and it frightened me to cross that line because I didn’t trust myself when I was near Jake. It wasn’t just physical desire; it was that dangerous mix of need, memory, and unresolved love. Of unfinished business, looking for anesthesia for the pain it had left behind. My body reacted before my head did.Jake slid his lips from my mouth to my jaw and then dow

Jake Judging by the doctor’s expression, I knew worse news was coming.I looked at him with my heart shattered. Kiara and I had fought so hard not to lose our children, and now Irina had lost the only child we had together. I didn’t know if she was aware of the news yet, but I could imagine how devastating it would be for her to find out.“What is it? What’s going on?”“Irina’s pregnancy…” he said, shaking his head regretfully. “It wasn’t a common loss.”“What? What do you mean?”“Based on the tone of her skin and her mucous membranes, I realized it was important to run a blood test quickly to confirm what I suspected, but the results showed something that feels excessively cruel.”“Tell me,” I demanded.“She was poisoned with silver. Just a few drops, but enough to make her lose the baby. Her blood was completely poisoned.”My world stopped. My heart began to race so violently that I didn’t know how to react. I thought I was going to die right there. My body trembled.I stumbled bac

KiaraI couldn’t blame him for being cold with me during the call. My call was probably the last thing he wanted to receive, but when I found out what had happened to Irina’s baby, I couldn’t call.It was almost automatic: I overheard Thomas talking on the phone while I was finishing dinner before going to the hospital to see Hanna and Blake. It didn’t take me long to notice Thomas’s furrowed brow and the abrupt way he stood up from his chair, as if the conversation were important. I knew Thomas was talking to Jake because I heard his voice, but since my illness interfered with my powers, I couldn’t understand what was happening.I stayed seated at the table, waiting for Thomas to come back. It didn’t take long for him to sit back down in front of me, though I know he had another call with someone else. I think he was talking to the pack.“What happened? Is everything okay?” I asked, thinking about what had happened between Jake and me just a few hours earlier.Eating in front of Tho
