Malik’s POV“I didn’t know this happened,” Lucien said, stepping closer. “No one mentioned this in the courtroom. They probably kept it quiet because they knew I would object. But then Bane started acting... funny. He wouldn't stop pacing. It was probably because he sensed you.”Lucien leaned down to ruffle Bane’s fur, but the massive black wolf refused to move an inch away from me. He kept his snout pressed firmly against my hand.“He’s missed you, you know,” Lucien continued, looking up at me. “I can't believe you stayed away from the capital for so long.”I let out a heavy sigh, leaning my head back against the stone. I hadn’t exactly chosen to stay in Stonehaven forever. At first, it was just about my obligations. But then, there was Nathaniel. The Imperial Capital was busy, too demanding, and after a while, I had actually started to enjoy the quiet life in a smaller pack.“Why am I here, Lucien?” I asked, cutting straight to the point.Lucien sighed. “You’ve pissed off a lot of p

Nathaniel's POV My back was stiff, and every bump the carriage hit sent a sharp ache straight to my hips. We had been on the road for hours, navigating the dark dirt paths that cut deep into the forest.I leaned my forehead against the passenger window, one hand resting over my stomach. The nervous fluttering from earlier had settled into a heavy nausea. My mouth tasted bitter, and my skin felt clammy.‘Stupid hormones,’ I thought, squeezing my eyes shut as the carriage dipped into a pothole.Ever since the pregnancy, my body hadn’t felt like my own. It’s been a constant tug-of-war between exhaustion, intense hunger, and the overwhelming urge to throw up everything I managed to swallow. Right now, the nausea was winning.Jax glanced over at me. “We’re almost there,” he said, breaking the long silence. He slowed the carriage down, scanning my pale face. “You look like a ghost, Nathaniel. Are you holding up okay?”“Can we... can we please take a quick break?” I muttered, not daring to

Nathaniel’s POVI woke up slowly, my eyelids heavy as I blinked against the light coming through the window. I wasn’t sure what it was but something felt… different.As the scent of leather enveloped me and I became aware of the hard body beneath me, my breath hitched. It can't be…I turned my head slowly, almost terrified that my mind was playing a cruel trick on me. But it wasn't a trick. Malik was lying right beside me.His eyes were closed, his sharp jawline shadowed with a trace of stubble. He looked exhausted, but his massive arm was wrapped securely around my waist, anchoring me against his side. Relief flooded my chest and my eyes filled with tears. Shaking, I lifted a hand and pressed my palm flat against his bare chest, feeling the steady thud of his heartbeat. He was real. He was actually here.A vibrating rumble on the floor made me snap my eyes toward the bottom of the bed.A massive shadow wolf looked up at me, his golden eyes bright. I could barely believe it. It had

Nathaniel's POV I'm sick of this.It was safe to say the Imperial Capital was nothing like I'd imagined. I thought being in Malik’s home was overwhelming… until I stepped foot here.Just like how it was back at the estate, I felt purposeless. Day after day, he’d go to his new office to continue his investigation into the trafficking ring, and I’d remain behind, waiting for him, like a… pet.I know Malik doesn’t want me to feel this way. I don’t want to feel this way either. But I just can’t help it. A soft whine cut through the room.I looked down and sighed. Bane was resting on the marble floor, his giant head propped up on his front paws, looking miserable. Despite my insistence that I was safe inside the palace walls, Malik had demanded that Bane stay with me constantly.The wolf was usually happy, but right now, he looked just as upset as I felt.I walked over and knelt on the floor, throwing my arms around his neck for a tight hug.“You miss him, huh buddy?” I murmured, rubbing

[This chapter leans into the darker side of my main character. He's morally grey, fiercely possessive, and makes choices that aren't meant to be justified or admired.Some scenes and themes may be unsettling for some readers.

I wasn't sure my heart had ever beat this violently in my entire life.Well, okay, that was a lie. My heart had raced just as hard the day I came back to find Nathaniel passed out cold on his bed. It had also raced just as fast with rage when I first found out he was pregnant for a man who wasn't me.But this was a different kind of terror.“Where is he?!” I roared.“This is an infirmary, sir. You need to calm down and—” a young attendant started, stepping in front of me.“I need to what? Shut up?!” I snarled. “You do not want to
