VICTORIALorenzo wouldn’t be riding with me. The inhibitors were barely taking the edge off.Before the door shut, Dr. Pietro said goodbye to me."I’ll be coming to your city to study the Luna Nera drug in the Greco labs, and I’ll be personally involved in your case. I hope to see you doing much better very soon," he said, squeezing my hand through the open car window.Honestly, I was really grateful to him, despite the strange way we’d met."I’m counting on you to get me back on my feet so I can hit every bar in the city," I told him, half joking, trying to lighten the mood."With that kind of incentive, I think I’m even more motivated to cure you," he replied with a wink that made me smile.A private little joke that would stay with us forever.The car pulled away, and at last I was leaving the capital behind, a city I’d come to for everything except a fun, party-filled vacation.I didn’t even know how the King had taken it that we missed his glorious birthday."So Lorenzo, the good

LORENZOMy voice came out sharp and impatient the second Leo picked up."Nino found a few interesting things," he said, and suddenly my computer screen lit up on its own, the two of them appearing from the office they called the bunker."Go ahead..." I leaned back in the armchair, trying to rein in my impatience."The money trail from the accounts Patriarch Vasiliev handed over led to offshore shell accounts used by... the Bianchi family," he said.Beside him, Nino kept typing nonstop on his laptop."It wasn't the Bianchis. Somebody just wants us to think it was," I said, the realization hitting me so hard it came out with a certainty I couldn't even explain.I trusted my instincts."Nino thinks so too." Leo nodded, and Nino started motioning at him again."The accounts were tampered with. He can't find the real trail, but it looks like they were used to do business with someone else, and it wasn't the Vasilievs.""It was the Bronas." I pressed my fingers to my chin, thinking. "They u

VICTORIAIt didn’t matter how many times they told me this was for the best… that I had to cooperate for my baby’s sake. If I wasn’t thinking about my pup, I would’ve already run.No matter how hard Mom tried to pull me into memories of Dad or keep me distracted, I only thought about seeing him.I stood on my bedroom balcony, staring out at the forest stretching deep into Bianchi pack territory. The lake was nearby, where I used to play with my brother… the old fisherman’s shack falling apart… every burrow, every cave, every tree reminded me of him.But none of it meant anything anymore.I just stood there, lost, watching the treetops thrash violently under the wind while the rain kept coming down harder and harder.I pulled the shawl tighter over my chest, my book still in my hand. The glass doors were open, and they’d moved the attic setup so I could face the forest while I read.But not even my favorite book could hold me. Couldn’t make me forget.I reached out, letting the drops s

LORENZOI tensed the second I heard Victoria’s ultimatum.For one sick second, I thought she might actually reject me. That I could lose her for good because of this whole mess.I swear the truth was right there on the tip of my tongue, but I couldn’t tell her. I had a thousand reasons, and I could name every damn one of them right now.She’d suffer too much if she found out my Alina had come back from the dead.She’d think she no longer had any chance of being my true mate, my Luna. She might even take the pup situation the wrong way and pull even farther away from me, get defensive, maybe even run.I knew Victoria too well. She’d fight for our child with teeth and claws.Everyone thought the same thing. Now that Alina was back, she’d be the one raising my heir, and Victoria would be nothing but the Omega my mother had hired for her womb.That had been the plan. But fate twisted everything. My mother ended up choosing my mate, my female, and I fell for Victoria like a fucking madman.

VICTORIAStanding right in front of me was my dear mother-in-law, and that was when every alarm bell in my head went off.I almost took a step back, my eyes sweeping over the store, which suddenly felt far too empty."Where’s my mother?" I asked flat out, realizing she was nowhere near me."Is that really the question you want to ask me, Victoria?" Her voice was low, but it carried that same commanding edge it always did.I felt uneasy standing in front of her. She wasn’t even trying to hide the weight of her Alpha presence."Then what question should I be asking, Matriarch Greco?" My answer came out just as sharp."You don’t need to be defensive. I’m not your enemy, and don’t ever forget this... the baby you’re carrying is my grandchild...""I am defensive because I called you for days and you never answered your phone. Then you suddenly show up here out of nowhere. Yeah, that’s suspicious as hell," I shot back, not sugarcoating a thing as I set the tiny onesie back on the rack.I lo
