Third Person's POVCaldwell wasn't stupid. If Mortimer knew about the plan, there was no way he was letting those weapons reach Moses.But Caldwell had never planned on letting Moses get his hands on that shipment anyway.From day one, he had zero intention of partnering with the guy. He wanted someone else to do his dirty work.The plan was to use Moses to take out Tobias, and then let the government wipe out Moses.Mortimer ignored the comment. "Is this still about getting back at Edwin?"Caldwell scoffed. "Why wouldn't it be?"Mortimer frowned. "So you still refuse to believe Edwin. You're set on the idea that he ordered the hit on your dad?"A raw, deep-seated hatred flared in Caldwell's eyes, turning his stare dark and hostile. The natural aggression of his inner wolf began bleeding through."Even if the old man didn't do it, your dad did—my dear uncle, Elias."Mortimer, if they hadn't killed my dad, my

Third Person's POVNot knowing what else to say, she whispered, "Thank you."Mortimer heard the sincerity in her voice."You don't need to thank me," he replied. His voice was faint, trembling slightly. "I'm just... trying to make up for past mistakes."She knew what he meant—the avalanche. The time he'd left her behind on the mountain.In truth, she hadn't minded that he'd left; no one could have seen an avalanche coming.What had stung was his indifference when he found out she was buried, and his suspicion that she'd faked the incident to force him to come back.But once she learned it was Vivian who had penned that dismissive reply, her lingering resentment had faded.At the end of the day, their relationship was a signed contract.Emotionally, Mortimer owed her nothing, which meant he had no amends to make.Even if he'd been beside her on that mountain, he wouldn't have been obligated to risk his life f

Third Person's POVSeraphina backed into Mortimer, pressing her spine flush against his chest to brace his weight and share her body heat.She was desperate to warm his freezing, blood-drained body as his werewolf vitality slipped away."Loosen your grip. Slowly," she said.Mortimer knew what she was trying to do. Gritting his teeth, he resisted. "No.""I know what I'm doing. Lean back," she urged. "I'll support you. Let me give you a chance to rest."When he didn't move, she added, "Mortimer, if you leave me alone in here, I never want to see you again.""Sera..."Her tone softened. The thin air made it hard to breathe, and the lack of oxygen fed her panic."Mortimer, I'm terrified of sitting here alone, waiting to die. I need you to talk to me. Distract me."She squeezed his arm. "Help me. Stay with me, okay?"A long moment passed before Mortimer let out a low, ragged groan."Okay," he managed.

Third Person's POVThe doctor arrived shortly after, examined her thoroughly, and said, "She's going to be fine now that she comes to. A werewolf's natural resilience has already pulled her through the worst of it. She just needs to stay at the Healing Center for a few more days, and once she passes a full physical, she can be discharged."Hearing that, Seraphina's parents let out a collective sigh of relief."Mom, Dad, I'm okay now. You guys should go home and get some rest. You look exhausted.""We're fine. Just stay in bed and get some sleep. Your mom will stay here with you, and I'll go home and fix you something to eat."Garfield gently stroked Seraphina's hair, a look of deep affection in his eyes. "Dash misses you, too. I'll bring him along when I come back to see you.""Okay, Dad." Seraphina nodded.After Garfield left, Seraphina turned to Thomasina. "Mom, why don't you lie down here and get some sleep with me?""Alrigh

Third Person's POVCaldwell had convinced himself that he was only protecting her from Tobias. That he was only getting rid of a future threat before it could harm her.He had only wanted to rise high enough for her to finally see him.He only...Yet in the end, he still hurt her. He used her.After that, Seraphina never saw Caldwell again.He had already resigned from his job.However, whenever she happened to turn on the TV, she would occasionally see reports about him in the news covering the Craig Group.The media praised Caldwell as the perfect successor who had kept the Craig Group standing after Mortimer's accident.They claimed that Caldwell was no less capable than Mortimer had been.But the Caldwell she saw on television, aside from that familiar face, was no longer the gentle and polite man she once knew.He was no longer the "chatterbox" Caldwell who could turn a single text message into several separate messages.After their bitter confrontation, Seraphina warned Elias ab
