Chapter: Epilogue
EmmaIt never even crossed my mind that my life would be the way it is now. Everything seemed so lost, so far away, until a certain mobster brought me to an unknown mansion. Andrew had changed from being that closed man who was cold and calculating. He was different now, more open, more affectionate.Five years flew by as if they were just a breath of time. Life has unfolded into countless possibilities since we ventured into a new chapter. The frenetic routine of a hospital became my world, where every day was a constant learning experience, every patient a story to be cared for. Today was my graduation, a day I never imagined I would be witnessing.It wasn't easy, I studied so much that my hands hurt.“Honey, have you seen my underpants? I can't find them,” Andrew says.“If you look in the closet instead of the sock drawer, I bet you'll find them,” I laughed. “Funny.”Liam comes running into the room, he's a beautiful boy, his golden hair like mine, and a bit like Andrew's, his e

POV Emma“Put the Christmas tree more in the center of the room, love,” I said to Andrew.We were decorating the mansion for Christmas, I really loved this time of year, but we'd never had a full house on this date. It was just me and my dad, but now we were going to have a full family.Today was Christmas Eve, and I was proud of the beautiful work I was doing at my father-in-law Matteo's NGO. We distributed food, clothes and toys, and I knew that every single one of those things would make the children happy. I felt fulfilled.I looked at Andrew who was struggling to put the star on the top of the tree, I loved him! And every day I became more sure of that. Liam was growing at lightning speed, this child already wanted to run around the house.“Son,” I went after him nimbly.“He really can't sit still,” Andrew said, “Come with daddy son, let's go and see the Christmas tree.” He carried Liam on his lap, and then gave me a kiss.”Everyone was coming over tonight, we were having a spe

Chapter: 110.Honeymoon
POV AndrewThe wedding was perfect, but I can't deny that I was looking forward to our honeymoon a thousand times more. "Wow, how beautiful every place is," she said, looking at the scenery."We were in the private jet, and Emma hated it. She said we were going to die and that she was scared, but after a few minutes by my side she forgot all about it. "Italy is enchanting," I said with a twinkle in my eye. I had chosen this as my city. My biological father, Matteo, had left me some property here and I was going to enjoy it too.Speaking of him, we were getting better and better as father and son. We were close, he and I talked about everything, and he showed me that it's possible to have a healthy relationship with your father. I forgave him, I understood that we can make mistakes. And holding a grudge wasn't going to make me a better person. I knew that.We were going to Milan. The best part of Italy for me. I was happy to bring my Principessa along."I've never traveled to place

Chapter: 108.Glimpsing Tomorrow
POV Andrew When we arrived at the place where Lexie was supposed to be with my son, Emma got out of the car and I asked her to get back in.I didn't feel at all good about the situation, and I felt guilty about the whole thing. Lexie had always loved me, and I hadn't wanted to reciprocate. I always made it clear that it was just sex, nothing more, and that I would never take on any woman. When she saw me with Emma, she went berserk. I'd put a stop to it, I asked them to put her up against the wall, but it was no use. Lorenzo strategically positioned himself outside the car, watching for any movement.“I'm going in first,” I said to everyone in the car, and Emma looked at me."“I'm going in too, it's my son."“Emma. We don't know what this crazy woman wants, I'll go in first and try to talk to her, please wait in the car. That's an order,” I said.“Okay, sir,” she looked at me with fire in her eyes.She swallowed and sat back down in the back seat. My heart squeezed, I knew she was

Chapter: 45. Decisions
Mia MillerI couldn’t close my eyes all night. Every time I felt like I might finally fall asleep, Lorenzo came to my mind.When the sun rose, my stomach turned. I hadn’t been able to eat anything since that damned kidnapping.A knock at the door interrupted my thoughts.“Miss Mia,” the middle-aged woman entered the room with a breakfast tray. “Alpha Darius asked me to bring this to you.”“I don’t want to eat, thank you.”“Miss, those are your father’s orders. Please, eat something,” she said, looking at me.I stared at her. Her eyes seemed sincere. And if I wanted to escape this place, I had to eat. I needed to be strong.“Thank you.”“Claire,” she said with a smile. “That’s my name. If you need anything, just call me.”She seemed like a good person.I devoured the breakfast tray. I was starving.Then I heard footsteps coming toward the room I was in.It was him. The Alpha of Silverclaw. Darius—my biological father.He was tall, with brown hair and tanned skin. His body was ripped, l

Chapter: 44.Silverclaw
Mia MillerMy eyes are blindfolded. I can’t see anything, no trace of where I might be. I only know that I am in a moving car, and I want to get out of here. I try to scream, but I feel weak; he sprayed something inside the car as soon as I got in. I clasp my hands together and ask... if the Moon Goddess, who they always talk about in the pack, really exists, to save me from this and take me back to Lorenzo.The car stopped abruptly. I felt the weight of the silence around me, except for the sound of my rapid heartbeat. Still with my eyes covered, fear coursed through my veins like poison. The doors opened, and I immediately felt rough hands pulling me out, without any gentleness.“Let me go!” I tried to scream, but my voice came out weak. The substance he used in the car still made me dizzy, my body felt slow and heavy. I was dragged over what seemed to be dirt ground. I could hear the rustling of leaves beneath my feet, the wind shaking the trees. Was it a forest?The scent of wolves

Chapter: 43. Panic
Mia MillerThat kiss awakened feelings in me that I thought had died. I knew it was forbidden, I knew he wasn't right for me. That everything was a mistake. But they always told me that the forbidden was more enticing. And even though I knew the Alpha wasn't the person who would make me happy, I gave myself completely.His touches… his warm mouth on mine. Skin on skin. I didn’t know how to react to all of it. On that terrace, naked, looking at the moonlight, I couldn’t think of anything bad. Only the present moment.His fingers were sliding down my body, caressing my waist. I felt something different, like a primitive instinct I didn’t even know existed was taking over me. I was a wolf. And it was hard to accept that. I was in denial. But when I smelled his scent, I forgot everything.While we looked at the starry sky, I broke the silence.“What do you feel for me?” I let the question slip out.“What kind of question is that now?” He smiled faintly.“Just answer, Ethan.”He stood up,

Chapter: 42.The last dinner
Ethan Greenwood. I hated the feeling of being pressured. Alphas were made to give orders, command, and control their pack, not be pressured.I was in one of the offices inherited from my father. We were respected throughout the city because my father had many businesses here, and all the wolves, humans, whoever they were, respected the Greenwood name. This situation would never have happened with my father. The feared Alpha.For a long time, I thought I was like him. But if I had to choose between marrying a she-wolf I couldn’t stand and protecting my son, I would choose the latter."Alpha." Nick entered the office with the phone in hand."What is it?" I stared at him."The leader of the pack wants to talk to you, Ethan."Oh no... What does that son of a bitch want?I grabbed the phone from the beta’s hands quickly. I was ready to tell him a few choice words."What do you want?" I said through gritted teeth."Is that how you talk to old friends, Alpha Greenwood?""We’re not friends.

Chapter: 41.Continuous visions.
Mia Miller "So I have to know how to dodge several wolves in a possible attack?" I ask, leaning toward Ethan."If you want to stay alive, yes," he whispers.The training with Ethan continued. I had been trying to avoid him, but it was impossible. He was the father of my child, and we lived in the same environment. As much as I wanted to avoid him with all my heart, I couldn’t.We paused the training to catch our breath. I glanced at him from the corner of my eye. His sweaty body revealed his perfectly toned abs, and his hair was almost wet with sweat. It was hard to look at Ethan Greenwood without wanting him."When can I go back to the city?" I asked, breaking the silence between us."As soon as it’s safe," he said in monosyllabic words."The people... Well, the wolves here don’t like me, Ethan. And they make that pretty clear. And then there’s Amber.""You care too much about others, Mia. What matters is that I’m the Alpha, and I’m in charge here. You’re the mother of my firstborn.

Chapter: 40. Unexpected encounters
Mia MillerI think more painful than loving someone and having it go wrong is liking someone and knowing, deep down, that it will never work. This was the suffocating feeling that surrounded me every time I looked at Ethan. He was in all my thoughts, every second of my day. Ethan was the first thought when I woke up, and the last when my head touched the pillow at night. Even though everything in me screamed to stay away, to protect myself from a feeling with no future, I couldn’t. He was a jerk, selfish, and yet, irresistibly a part of me.How did I let this happen? At first, it was supposed to be just one night. A damn night. Nothing more. I went into his arms seeking comfort, trying to escape the pain caused by Collin’s betrayal. But somehow, everything turned into this—a tangle of complicated emotions, a confusion of desires and resentments. Now, I was trapped, connected to him in a way I could never undo.My gaze shifted to Lorenzo, playfully messing with his toys on the floor. T

Her ex-fiancé, Matteo, who disappeared without explanation, shattering her heart and dreams. And now, her mother, taken by a cruel illness, leaving her completely alone. Returning to New York for the funeral, Lily—a failed writer struggling to rebuild her career—only hoped to close this painful chapter. But fate had other plans.

Forced into marriage for her own safety, Lily finds herself trapped between betrayals, secrets, and a love that never truly died.

Chapter: 61
The sound of the door exploding still echoed in my ears. The man lying on the floor, with blood splattering across the room, seemed unreal. But all of it was more than real.Andrei was coming, and we were no longer safe, not even in the most isolated place we had.Dimitri stood still for a moment, his hand firmly gripping the gun. Sasha was standing beside me, her gaze sharper than ever. She knew. Something was wrong. But what?Dimitri didn’t give us time for more questions. He looked at the fallen intruder and then at me.“We need to leave. Now,” he said, with no emotion. He was no longer the protective grandfather. He was the leader.Sasha walked over to the man’s body and pulled the pendant from his neck, still stained with blood. The first thing I saw was the letter A engraved with an old-fashioned, familiar style.“This is from my son,” Dimitri said, his voice choked but firm. “Andrei has more people than we imagined.”My breath caught in my throat. Andrei.He wasn’t just after m

Matteo SalvatoreMy body was intact, but my soul... torn apart.I’d been sleeping for days with a gun at my waist and her name clenched between my teeth.Lily.The world kept spinning around me, but I was stuck.Stuck in her absence.Stuck in the uncertainty of not knowing if she was alive... or just hiding from me.The phone vibrated on the marble table in the hall. Unknown number. No location.I answered on the second ring.Nothing.Silence.But not just any silence.It was a loaded silence.Full of breath.A breath I knew like my own.That delicate pause between fear and courage.That way of breathing with your chest tight, like you want to speak, but you can't.I closed my eyes, gripping the phone so tightly my knuckles turned white.“Lily…”Nothing.But she was there.I knew it.It wasn’t my imagination. It wasn’t paranoia. It was her.And she was alive.“If you’re listening... please, don’t give up. I’m looking for you. And I won’t stop. Not even if hell opens up in front of me.

Lily MontgomeryThe next morning, I woke up with a dry throat, a sore body, and a mind on fire.I had dreamed of Matteo. Or at least... his touch.In the dream, he held my hand so tightly it hurt. But when I called his name, he simply vanished.When I opened my eyes, Sasha was already on the porch, sitting on the low wall, sipping black coffee from an old glass cup."Did you sleep?" I asked, joining her."A little," she replied. "I dreamed I was killing Orlov."I sat beside her, pulling the blanket over my shoulders."Nice dream."She gave a crooked smile."Are you sure you want to do this?""Are you backing out?""Not even dead."We sat in silence for a moment, staring at the tall trees in front of the house. The world seemed too calm for the war we were about to start."We’ll need a map. Equipment. And access," she said, more serious now. "That house is protected by sensors and thermal cameras. Orlov uses it like a vault of souls. He won’t make it easy.""And armed security?""Only

Lily MontgomerySasha stepped out of the car slowly, like someone afraid of being recognized even by the trees.Her eyes scanned the surroundings as if she still lived in captivity. Slouched shoulders, a sharp gaze — Sasha was no longer the girl I rescued from Orlov's house.She now looked like a shadow that had learned how to survive.“Sasha,” I called.She hesitated, like my name from the past had lost all meaning. But when she saw me — really saw me — her eyes faltered.“You’re okay…” she murmured.I took a step forward. “And still pregnant,” I added, with a tired half-smile.She let out a breath, almost laughing, almost crying. Then she walked toward me with firm steps and… hugged me.It was a strange hug. Too tight, like someone holding on for dear life, someone who hadn’t trusted anyone in a long time.Her scent still carried traces of fear. But there was something new now too. Fury. A desire to live.“Thank you,” she whispered in my ear. “If you hadn’t shown up… I’d still be th

Lily Montgomery"You can lift your shirt now."The doctor’s hands were firm, cold, yet gentle as she spread the gel across my belly. The room was quiet, except for the soft hum of the machine being turned on.I glanced at my grandfather, still unsure, but he gave me a calm nod.“You’re safe, sweetheart. She’s been my trusted doctor for years,” he whispered, gently touching my shoulder with the kind of tenderness only someone forged by war could show.I nodded, trying to control the anxiety rising inside me in waves.The screen lit up.And there it was.Tiny. Curled. Fragile. But alive.A sound filled the room.Thump-thump. Thump-thump. Thump-thump.My heart stopped for a second—just to hear his.“Everything looks good,” the doctor said with a smile. “Strong heartbeat. Development matches the gestational age. A healthy baby.”I closed my eyes, letting a tear fall.My world was in ruins.But inside me… there was still life.When we left the room, Dimitri offered me a glass of water. I s

Matteo SalvatoreThe warehouse looked dead from the outside.But hell was boiling inside.We entered in formation, silent. Me, Paolo, and three trusted men. All in the dark, breathing like predators.And he was there.Sitting on a steel chair, black shirt, cigarette in hand. Viktor Orlov.Or rather...Viktor Romano.My footsteps echoed on the concrete. He looked up, smiled like he’d been expecting me.“Salvatore,” he sneered. “I thought you were smarter.”I tossed the envelope onto the table beside him. It landed with a dry thud.“Open it.”He raised an eyebrow, opened it slowly. The smile drained from his face.DNA tests.Old photos of Luigi with Viktor’s mother.Reports. Signatures.Everything.“Congrats,” he muttered. “You’re good at genealogy. So what?”“You killed your father,” I growled. “You knew. Maybe not with words, but you knew. And still... you pulled the trigger.”He stood, calmly.“I didn’t kill anyone.”“Liar.”“I never knew who my father was. No one ever told me. And i
