บททั้งหมดของ My Baby Daddy wants me for Christmas : บทที่ 91 - บทที่ 97

Aurora "You did not give me much choice," I said, staying close to the door. "You said everyone dies on Christmas Day.""They will." Rina's voice broke. She pressed a trembling hand over her mouth and shook her head. "I am sorry, Aurora. I know that means nothing to you right now, but I am so sorry. The skates, the messages, the photographs of your son... I did all of it because he told me to. I was the one who sent you the email offering you this job. He asked me to pick you up at the airport. I looked at the mark on your neck that day and pretended I did not know whose it was."My grip on the crutch tightened until my knuckles turned white. I had suspected it, and I had said it out loud to Leon in that tunnel, but hearing her confess it while she sat in front of me crying made my stomach turn."Why?" I asked. "Leon told me your parents were killed by the Black Spots. Why would you help the people who took your family from you?""Because he is my mate," she said simply, and the word

AuroraDecember 16, 2025The Alpha King did not shout when we walked into his study the next morning, and somehow that was worse.He sat behind his massive oak desk with his hands folded in front of him, his face so calm and so cold that I found myself gripping my crutch tighter just to keep my knees from shaking.Leon stood beside me with his arm in a black sling, his face pale from a night of fresh stitches and very little sleep.The doctors had begged him to stay in the hospital for another three days. He had signed himself out at six in the morning."Sit," the King said.We sat.For a long moment, he said nothing at all. He only looked at us, first at Leon and then at me, and the silence stretched until I could hear the fire crackling in the hearth behind him."My son," he said finally, "was stabbed with silver three days ago. Last night, he tore open his own wound and walked into a trap with a Valderrama princess who has a bullet hole in her shoulder, because his mate decided to

Aurora December 16, 2025 For a long moment, nobody in the nursery moved. I stood beside the crib with the glass sun resting in my palm, and I could not stop staring at the black spot painted across its center. The ornament was so small that it weighed almost nothing, yet my hand was shaking so badly that the little paper tag rattled against the glass. I was terrified I would drop it and wake my son. "Give it to me," Leon said quietly. I placed it in his good hand. He did not look at it. He looked at Noel, then at the door, then at the tall window behind the rocking chair, and I could feel his thoughts racing through the mate bond like a wolf pacing the length of a cage. *Nobody leaves this room,* Rhaziel growled inside my head, his voice so low and rough that I felt it in my teeth. *Not until we know who touched our pup's bed.* Leon closed his eyes, and I knew he was calling the guards through the pack link. Less than a minute later, the corridor outside filled with the

LeonDecember 17, 2025An hour past noon, Rina stopped so suddenly that Dominic nearly walked into her back.Below us, in a small hollow between the pines, stood an old hunting lodge with a sagging roof and dark, empty windows. I remembered it at once.It had belonged to Tristan's father before the rebellion, and after the executions, my father had ordered it closed and left it to rot. Nobody had lived there in twenty years.Yet a thin thread of gray smoke was still curling up from its stone chimney."He was here," Rina whispered. "He was here this morning."Captain Hollis signaled with two fingers, and his warriors spread out through the trees in silence, circling the lodge from every side.When they gave the signal, I went down the slope with Rina and Dominic close behind me.The front door was unlocked. Inside, the air was still faintly warm, and the ashes in the fireplace were gray on top and glowing orange underneath.Rhaziel filled my lungs with Tristan's scent so suddenly that
