Even though her eyes were open and the screaming had stopped, the twins were completely hysterical. The primal, elemental bond tying them to Leela had broadcasted every terrifying second of her agony directly into their tiny chests. Seeing her pale face from the doorway wasn't enough to break the sheer panic gripping them. To their frantic little minds, the mother who was their entire universe had just been swallowed by the dark, and they demanded absolute, physical proof that she was still breathing. They thrashed and wailed violently in Ginny’s arms, their little faces red and tear-soaked, practically throwing their heavy bodies out of her hold as they reached their chubby hands desperately toward the floor.Ginny didn't hesitate. Her own heart was breaking at the sound of their ragged shrieks. Ignoring the heavily armed, kneeling vanguards and the horrifying, strobe-lit cage holding the withered, dying husk of the High Councilor, she practically sprinted across the study, determine

Leela crossed the threshold into the warm, bright kitchen, and the exact moment the heavy, comforting scent of Elana’s cooking hit her nose, her body finally registered that the war was over. The last microscopic drop of adrenaline evaporated from her bloodstream, leaving absolutely nothing behind but a hollow void.The sheer, crushing exhaustion of channeling the Whisper Wind and fighting off the necrotic clay hit her like a runaway freight train. Without a single second of warning, Leela’s legs completely buckled beneath her."Fenn!" she gasped, her grip failing as the world tilted.Fennigan was already moving. He lunged forward, his massive arms wrapping securely around her waist just before her knees hit the terracotta tile. It was a frantic, chaotic scramble—he was suddenly trying to support the dead weight of his collapsing mate while simultaneously keeping a firm, protective grip on the two heavy, deeply sleeping toddlers still clutched tightly to her chest."I've got you, I've

For several long, heavy minutes, the only sound in the room was their synchronized breathing and the soft rustle of the blankets.Then, Ginny’s hand suddenly stilled in his hair. Her brow furrowed as the chaotic blur of the last hour slowly began to untangle in her mind. She blinked, her tear-filled eyes widening as a specific, offhand comment from the healer finally registered."Jax..." Ginny whispered, her voice suddenly breathy and light.He immediately lifted his head, panic instantly flaring back into his golden eyes. "What? Are you cramping again? Do I need to get Magda?""No, no, I'm fine," Ginny said quickly, a watery, disbelieving smile breaking across her pale face. She looked down at him, her hands coming up to cup his face. "Jax... when Magda was scanning my stomach. Do you remember what she said?"Jax blinked, his brain still sluggish from the adrenaline crash. "She... she said the heartbeat was strong. That you needed bedrest.""Before that," Ginny urged, a soft, beautif

The afternoon sun threw long, warm shadows across the bedroom floor as Leela finally stirred, fighting her way up through the thick, heavy layers of exhausted sleep. She rolled over, instinctively bracing herself for the familiar, chaotic chatter of her twins. But the room was draped in a strange, thick silence. She blinked the sleep from her heavy eyes, her gaze sweeping the space. The twins' bed was empty—no Caspian babbling, no Briar giggling—and Fennigan’s reassuring, solid presence was missing from his side of the mattress.With a soft groan, Leela stretched, her joints popping and her muscles protesting the movement. She swung her legs over the edge of the mattress, her toes meeting the cool floorboards. She knew Magda’s strict, maternal orders had been to stay completely bedbound, but an intense, ravenous hollow had opened up in her stomach. Her elemental core might be depleted, but her body was absolutely screaming for fuel. She smoothed down the soft, clean cotton of pajamas—

True to his word, Fennigan reappeared just a few minutes later, carrying a massive, steaming plate that instantly made Leela’s mouth water. It was piled high with thick, tender slices of slow-cooked roast, hearty chunks of potatoes swimming in rich brown gravy, and a generous, golden square of butter-slathered cornbread.The savory aroma immediately caught the attention of Caspian and Briar. Of course, the moment Leela settled the plate on her lap, the twins abandoned their toys and scrambled over, their little hands reaching out eagerly. Leela couldn't help but laugh, happily breaking off soft, crumbly pinches of the sweet cornbread to share with them before finally taking a desperate, heavenly bite of the roast for herself. The warm, heavy food hit her empty stomach like a grounding anchor.Just as she was savoring the meal, soft footsteps drew her attention to the archway. Elana stepped into the great room, wiping her hands on a flour-dusted apron. The older woman's tense shoulders
