I stood behind her, my hand finding her shoulder, trying to ground her, to ground us both. The doctor exhaled slowly, removing his glasses and rubbing the bridge of his nose. When he looked up, his eyes held the kind of sorrow that comes from delivering impossible news too many times. "We began the transplant procedure as planned. Everything was going smoothly initially, but…" He paused, and in that pause, the world seemed to hold its breath. "Midway through the surgery, we discovered that the donor heart was a mismatch. The tissue compatibility tests we ran earlier gave us false positives. It's rare, but it happens." The words hung in the air like shattered glass.

“My beta has taken the time to search for your mate among my people, but we can’t seem to find her. Maybe if we can have a physical description of what she looks like, we might just find her for you.” He nodded, and I braced myself. Deep within my heart, I was hoping that the intruder would give me a description that was different from Alana's and that would prove that they were not the same person. I was hoping to be wrong—that Adam is damn wrong, that it’s all a fucking misunderstanding.

“You were looking at the same number.” I looked down at the page and she was right. “I was thinking.” “You were staring.” “Thinking and staring can happen at the same time.” “They can, but usually when you're doing it, someone else has already discovered the mistake.” I gave her a long look and she smiled sweetly. “Don't worry, I found it.” She tapped one of the entries and I leaned closer. The payment had been recorded against the correct shipment number, but the receiving merchant's name was slightly different from the one written on the delivery receipt.

"But the good news is, hmm... actually, I don't know if I should say it's good news or not. But I think we still have hope; she might be Diana since the information about her is a bit suspicious.
