Ch.11

RyanPack matters kept me away for over a week. There were things I left unattended, so I stayed in my office, handling them one after another without stepping into the pack house. At first, it felt necessary, there was always something waiting on my table, another report, another issue that needed my attention, and I kept pushing it forward, telling myself I would go back once I was done.But I was never done.And in the middle of all that, Giuliana stayed in my room.That thought sat at the back of my mind the entire time, until it started to feel like I was deliberately avoiding going back. I did not like that realization, and I did not like the guilt that came with it either.I dropped the file in my hand and leaned back slightly, my fingers pressing against my temple for a brief moment before I stood up. There was nothing in front of me that could not wait.I had been away long enough.The guards at the entrance straightened the moment I stepped out.“Alpha.”I acknowledged them

Ch.12

Giuliana“Pregnant?”The word slipped out before I could hold it back, and I heard how wrong it sounded the moment it left my mouth. My fingers tightened around the sheets as I pushed myself up a little, ignoring the slight pull in my head. My chest felt tight, my heartbeat uneven, and I could not seem to catch a proper breath.“No… that doesn’t make sense,” I murmured, shaking my head slowly as I looked between the healer and the space in front of me, trying to steady my thoughts. “Are you sure?”The healer nodded without hesitation. “Yes, My Lady.”His voice was calm, too calm, like he had not just turned my world upside down with a single sentence.I swallowed hard, my throat dry as my gaze shifted, almost against my will, until it landed on Ryan.He stood there, completely still.Not a single reaction, not a word, just that look on his face that I could not fully read but understood enough to know it was not good. His jaw was tight, his shoulders stiff, and his eyes looked distant

Ch.13

RyanA knock on my office door pulled me out of my thoughts, like I had been dragged back into the room against my will.“Come in,” I called, straightening slightly in my chair.The door opened almost immediately, and Melissa walked in without waiting, her steps quick and firm. Malakai followed right behind her, his hand half-raised like he had been trying to stop her but gave up halfway.That alone told me this was not going to be a quiet conversation.“My King,” Melissa started, her tone tight, controlled, but I could see the anger sitting just beneath it. She stopped in front of my desk, her posture straight, her eyes locked on me. “Please, that woman cannot stay in this pack, let alone be accepted as your mate, which automatically makes her our Luna.”Malakai exhaled quietly beside her. “Melissa…”She ignored him completely.I leaned back slightly, my gaze steady on her. “Go on.”Malakai shot me a look, but I gave him a small gesture to let her speak. He stepped back, though I cou

Ch.14

GiulianaI stood in the pack hall while the elders argued over me as if I was not standing right in front of them.A newspaper lay open on the table, the bold headline facing upward for everyone to see.“Ex-Luna pregnant with rival Alpha’s child.”Another elder dragged a second paper closer, tapping it with two fingers. “Now mated to the King of the North.”The room had not been quiet since I was brought in. Voices moved over each other, some controlled, some already losing patience, all of them certain they had the right to decide what happened to me. I kept my posture steady, my chin lifted just enough to show I was not backing down, even though I could feel the weight of every stare in the room.Elder Rowan shifted in his seat and looked directly at me. “You should not be here.”I met his gaze without lowering mine. “This concerns me.”An older elder to his left exhaled sharply. “It concerns the entire pack, and the pack already knows what must be done.”I folded my fingers togethe

Ch.15

LoganI sat across from the chief healer in the clinic office, my fingers resting against the arm of the chair while I watched him sort through the papers on his desk. The room smelled faintly of herbs and antiseptic, a scent I had grown used to over the years, but today it felt heavier, almost suffocating. He had asked to see me privately, and that alone was enough to put me on edge.I leaned back slightly, my gaze fixed on him. “You requested my presence. Speak.”He did not answer immediately. Instead, he pulled a single parchment from the stack and placed it carefully in front of him, his movements slower than usual, as if he was choosing each one with caution.My patience thinned. “What is it?”He finally looked up, meeting my eyes with a seriousness that made my jaw tighten. “My Alpha, the results from the general test are complete.”I nodded once. “And?”He slid the paper toward me across the desk.I did not pick it up immediately. Something in his expression made me pause, my f

Ch.16

LoganChloe’s eyes moved from my face to the paper in my hand, and before I could react, she pushed herself up from the floor and snatched it from me. The paper crinkled under her grip as she scanned through it, her fingers trembling, her breathing turning uneven.Rosser stepped closer to her, leaning in to read the same lines, her brows knitting together at first, then lifting as the meaning settled.A sharp gasp left her lips.She took a step back from Chloe as if the space between them suddenly mattered. “Chloe… how could you?”Chloe’s head snapped toward her, her expression already breaking. “I… I don’t—”Rosser did not let her finish. “Do you understand what this means?” she pressed, her voice rising, anger replacing the shock. “You want to destroy my brother’s lineage? You want another family to take over the Alpha seat because he cannot produce an heir?”Chloe shook her head quickly, panic flooding her face. “No, that’s not it, I swear. I didn’t know. I had no idea.”I watched

Ch.17

Logan “Giuliana is pregnant?” The words leave my mouth before I can hold them back, rough and disbelieving, and for a second the entire room feels smaller, like the walls have shifted closer without warning. I stare at my Beta, waiting for him to take it back, to correct himself, to admit he misunderstood whatever rumor he chased down. But he doesn’t. He stands there, shoulders squared, eyes steady, holding a folded document like it weighs more than it should. “It’s confirmed,” he replies, voice firm, leaving no room for doubt. “They said she’s over six weeks along. I verified it myself.” Six weeks. The number lands hard, sinking deep before my mind even catches up to it. My fingers curl slightly at my sides as the calculation runs without permission. Six weeks… she was still here then. Still in this pack. Still— My breath hitches. Blood drains from my face so fast I feel it, a hollow rush that leaves me cold despite the heat in the room. My wolf stirs sharply, restless, pushi

Ch.18

RyanI ignored the chaos in my pack to finally respond to an alliance I had been seeking for. I was supposed to meet with Hoodwinked Pack months ago but I couldn't.I stepped into their pack house with Melissa and Malakai behind me, the doors closing quietly as we entered. The guards stationed along the walls watched us closely, their eyes following every move like we were already a problem walking into their territory. I didn’t react to it. I had seen worse looks from people who smiled while planning to stab you in the back.“This way, Alpha,” one of their guards gestured, already turning without waiting to see if we would follow.I took a steady stride after him, my boots echoing faintly against the polished floor while Melissa kept pace beside me, her expression already tight, and Malakai moved behind us, silent but alert. The hall opened into a larger room, long table set at the center, chairs arranged neatly, everything looking formal enough to pretend this was a respectful meeti

Ch.19

GiulianaI woke up with a pounding headache and heat crawling through my veins, making the sheets cling to my skin and my breath come out uneven. The moment I pushed myself up, the room shifted slightly, and I gripped the edge of the bed to steady myself.“My lady?” Diana’s voice came quickly, urgent, as she moved toward me.“I’m fine,” I muttered, dragging a hand across my damp forehead, though even to my own ears, it sounded hollow.Mia stepped in before Diana could speak again, pressing her palm firmly against my skin. The second she felt my temperature, her expression stiffened.“My lady, your temperature is too high,” she said, her voice tight. “We need to take you to the pack clinic now.”I shook my head, leaning back against the headboard. “No. I’m not going there.”Both of them froze, clearly not expecting that.“My lady…” Diana tried again, carefully choosing her words. “This is not something you can ignore.”“I’m not ignoring it,” I replied, voice steady even as the heat pre

Ch.20

LoganI slam the leather-bound book onto the table, the sound sharp enough to make the room flinch. The elders’ chamber smells of incense and old wood, the faint mustiness doing nothing to calm the storm inside me. I lean back, rubbing at my jaw, trying to force sense into the mess of thoughts circling my head. Every rule, every law in this pack’s code I’ve memorized, twisted and sorted, searching for anything—anything—that could tilt this in my favor.The elders shift uneasily around me. Elder Rourke glances at the others, eyes narrowed. “You’ve been at it for hours,” he says, voice low. “Perhaps you need rest.”I glance up, letting a sharp smile creep over my face. “Rest won’t help me. I need answers. There has to be a way.”Since I tried going to Silver Moon myself but that bastard had ordered his boundaries restricted to me, Me…Alpha Logan. Another elder, Seline, tilts her head. “You’re pushing boundaries that don’t belong to you, Alpha.”“Boundaries?” I snap, leaning forward so
