Chapter 91 — Too Late To Fix It

Ryker's POVI felt it before I understood it.A pulse of raw, cracking emotion that hit me mid-shower and stopped me cold. Not pain exactly, but very close.Duke surged instantly. "Something is wrong—"It took me one second to know what it meant."Ayla." Her name slipped from my lips before I'd thought it. I grabbed a towel and wrapped it around my waist, water still dripping from my hair.No time to think, no time to get dressed—the bond was screaming, and Duke was clawing at the walls of my mind, and I was moving on pure instinct before I'd formed a single rational thought.Soren burst through his bedroom door at the same moment, wearing the same urgency on his face.We looked at each other for half a second before the scent hit us both—berries. Warm and sweet and unmistakably hers."She's here," Duke said. "Find her."The dread was already building in my stomach as I moved.Soren's gaze cut toward Kael's room. He lifted his nose, jaw tightening. "She went to Kael's room," he said,

Chapter 92 — The Window I Shouldn't Open

Ayla's POVI locked the door and checked it twice, standing there with my hand still on the handle, forehead pressed against the wood. My chest felt tight, cracked, and wrong in a way that breathing couldn't fix."You were pushing them away," Tala said.Tears ran down my face. I had to."Ayla—" Tala's voice broke, echoing something already fracturing inside me.I had to. Because of what I'd seen, what I'd felt, and what those words did when they landed—"We're here to service the Alphas"—I had nowhere to put that. No way to hold it and stay standing at the same time.I checked the door one more time before bed.Sleep didn't come.I lay in the dark, and my mind wouldn't stop cycling through the moment—images relentless and specific. Lisa on the bed. Tracy against the wall. Carmen was watching me with that patient, satisfied look, like she'd been waiting for exactly this. The careful arrangement of it all. The deliberateness behind it. People didn't set a scene like that spontaneously. T

Chapter 93 — The Line I Cross Anyway

Ayla's POVI didn't go.I'd stood at the window with my fingers on the latch, Tala's warning still echoing in my chest, and as I looked at Zander's patient, knowing expression, something in me just couldn't go through with it. It didn't feel right.I couldn't trust my judgement in that moment, so I closed the window, locked it, and went back to bed."You chose yourself," Tala said quietly.It didn't make the ceiling any easier to stare at. It didn't stop the bond from aching, the images from cycling, or the tight, cracked feeling in my chest from loosening even slightly. But I stayed. I kept myself inside the four walls I knew, and I waited for morning.Morning came too fast, too bright, and relentlessly normal compared to how I felt inside.I got dressed slowly, like I was carrying something fragile and one wrong movement would drop it. Jeans, hoodie, boots — the same things I always wore. I wore the armor of being easy to overlook. It occurred to me somewhere between lacing my boots

Chapter 94 — The Space I Put Between Us

Ayla's POVZander was beside me the whole way to school, and somehow that made the walk easier than it had any right to be.The building came into view, and I was already bracing—already rebuilding the walls I'd forgotten I needed—when I stepped through the front doors and stopped.The hallway was decorated.Balloons tied to every railing, clusters of red and white floating quietly in the still indoor air. Notes pinned between lockers, small and deliberate, covering every available surface. Fresh roses lined the windowsills, were tucked into locker vents, and were scattered across the floor in careful patterns. There were far too many roses for winter, indicating that someone had put in effort to obtain them.Tala blinked. "Where in the goddess's name did they get roses at this hour?""Don't know," I said. "And don't care."Except I did know. I just didn't want to look at it directly and let it land somewhere it would do damage.Zander stayed quiet beside me, watching everything with

Chapter 95 — The Smile No One Else Saw

Kael's POVWe were ready before she arrived.The hallway took most of the night—balloons were tied to every railing, notes were pinned with care, and roses were arranged along the windowsills and locker vents, scattered across the floor in patterns that took Ryker three attempts to get right because his hands kept shaking. He'd never admit that. I wouldn't tell him I noticed.Fenrir stood very still inside me, holding his control while everything in us screamed to just go to her. "Let her choose."We positioned ourselves at the far end — not blocking, not cornering. Just present. We gave her the full length of the hallway to walk through everything we'd built, to take it however she needed.Ryker was beside me, barely contained, Duke's presence rumbling low across the mind link. Soren was on my other side—quiet and alert; Blaze was reading everything around us with that methodical attention he gave to things that mattered.We waited.She came through the front doors looking like someo

Chapter 96 — The Quiet That Feels Like Safety

Ayla's POVThe triplets didn't follow me, and I felt that absence everywhere.Every corner I turned felt emptier than it should have. Every hallway was a little too quiet, like the sound had been turned down on a room I'd grown used to hearing properly."They're giving you room," Tala said."I can see that," I said, and felt miserable about it.It should have felt good. This was what I wanted, wasn't it? Distance. Room to breathe. No expectations pressing in from three directions at once, no complicated history sitting heavy in the air between us.Instead, it felt wrong.The space was too quiet — like a sound I'd grown so used to that its absence was louder than the sound itself. I walked to class and felt it with every step. The gap where something had been. Not dramatic. Not sharp. Just missing.Without asking or hesitating, Zander fell into step beside me, as if someone had already decided it without consulting me. His pace matched mine exactly."He's becoming routine," Tala said.

Chapter 97 — The Story They Tried To Bury

Ryker's POVThe drive felt too long. Every second dragged and stretched in a way that had nothing to do with traffic and everything to do with the bond sitting faint and thin in my chest, like something being slowly pulled apart at the seam.My leg wouldn't stop moving. Duke kept pacing inside me."Turn around," he growled."We can't," I said."She's with him.""I know," I said. "That's the problem."We knew exactly where she was and exactly who she was with, and we couldn't do a single thing about it that wouldn't make everything worse.I watched Kael drive—hands steady on the wheel, Fenrir quiet and contained behind his eyes in that specific way that meant Kael had made a decision and was moving toward it. Soren sat beside me in the back, barely seeming to breathe, Blaze at the surface, focused and still.Neither of them spoke. Neither did I, because nothing useful was going to come out of my mouth right now.We pulled through the packhouse gates.I was out of the car before it stop

Chapter 98 — The Choice That Feels Like Freedom

Ayla's POVThey still weren't there, and that was the first thing I noticed when the hallway emptied — no familiar footsteps behind me, no warmth at my side, no pull from three directions at once reminding me where they were. Just quiet with too much space in it.Tala shifted uneasily. "The bond feels weaker.""I feel it," I said. "Like they've given up."It was still there—technically intact—but fragile in a way it had never been before. Like it could snap if pushed any further.That scared me more than I wanted to admit.I walked slower than usual without meaning to. Like my feet were waiting for someone my mind had already decided wasn't coming."They're not coming," Tala said. It was as if she knew I needed to hear it spoken aloud."I can see that," I said.I didn't like it. This wasn't what I'd expected. It didn't feel like breathing room anymore—it felt like being left behind. Like I hadn't meant enough for them to keep fighting. Like they'd finally looked at the situation clear

Chapter 99 — The Last Attempt

Kael's POVWe were back at school, but nothing felt the same.The bond felt thin and stretched in my chest—something pulled past its limit, holding on through stubbornness alone.Fenrir watched our surroundings quietly. "It's weaker today," he said.It shouldn't have thinned this fast. The mate bond was built to survive distance, conflict, and time—one of the most resilient things in existence. The fact that it was fading this quickly meant something was actively working against it."Zander knows exactly what he's doing," Fenrir said.Ryker was tense beside me, Duke as restless as Fenrir—I could feel that low, continuous energy coiled in him, wanting to move and being held forcibly still. Soren was on my other side, quieter, but the anxiety was building behind his eyes even as Blaze worked to keep him focused and steady.I felt her before I saw her.We all turned at the same moment. She was crossing the hall with him, close and unhurried, comfortable in a way that had no business look

Chapter 100 — The Space He Fills

Ayla's POVI kept walking even after it was over.Even after I'd stepped back and made the choice, it sat in my chest like a stone dropped into still water—the ripples spreading outward before I could stop them.That step had been small. One foot moving backward. One moment. But it felt final in a way I hadn't been prepared for. Like something snapping that had been holding for a long time.Then the sound cracked through the hallway behind me.Sharp. Physical. Like something giving way under pressure with nowhere else to go.I flinched. My fingers twitched at my sides. I didn't turn back."Ryker," Tala said quietly.I knew that sound. The sound of Ryker losing the battle with himself—pain and anger and something more primal than either—breaking through the control he'd been holding with both hands.I kept walking. Because if I turned, even for a second, I wouldn't be able to leave. And I had to.Didn't I?Zander fell into step beside me like the sound behind us was weather that had al
