His fingers found Alexander's hair.Alexander climbed. His knee caught the bed rail. His elbow jabbed into Kyle's hip. The heart monitor spiked.Alexander's face pressed into Kyle's shoulder. The hospital gown bunched under his cheek, the fabric dotted with small blue diamonds, the kind of pattern. Alexander's fingers found the edge of the gown and twisted. Held."You woke up." The words were muffled. Wet. "You woke up you woke up you woke up—"Kyle's hand moved in Alexander's hair. Once. Twice. His eyes were closed again. At the foot of the bed, Ethan stood."Ethan." Kyle's voice was rough. Sandpaper on wood."Come here, Ethan."Kyle's hand extended. Palm up. The IV line stretched. The needle shifted under the tape. The seconds stretched. I could hear Alexander's breathing. I could hear the fluorescent light buzzing overhead. I co

The ICU had a particular quality of silence—not empty, but muffled. Held. Like the building itself was holding its breath.I pushed the door open.Alexander was still standing by the bed. Still talking. His voice had gone hoarse now, scratchy at the edges, but he hadn't stopped."—and then the dragon said, 'I'm not scary, I'm just misunderstood,' and the princess said, 'Well, you should work on your communication skills,' and the dragon said—"He stopped when he saw us."Madison, you're back.

Chapter: Chapter 500 Day ThreeMia's POV"Daddy, wake up."Alexander's voice was small. Not the usual Alexander voice.He was standing on his tiptoes, his chin resting on the edge of the hospital bed, his fingers curled around the metal railing. The bed was too high for him. He'd dragged a chair over earlier, but he preferred standing. Said it made him feel closer."Mama says if you leave us like this again, she'll never forgive you."The ventilator hissed. A soft, rhythmic sound. In. Out. In. Out.I didn't correct him. I hadn't said those exact words. But I hadn't not said them either.The monitors beeped. Steady. Green lines moving across black screens in patterns. Heart rate: 62. Oxygen: 97. Blood pressure: 118/76. Numbers that meant alive. Numbers that didn't mean awake.Kyle's face was slack. That was the word the nurse had used. Slack."I learned a new word today," Alexander continued. He was tracing patterns on the blanket with his finger. Circles. Squares. A lopsided star.

Chapter: Chapter 499 I PrayMia's POVThe family lounge was too bright. That was the thing about hospitals—they never let you forget where you were. The fluorescent lights hummed overhead, casting everything in that flat, shadowless glare that made everyone look slightly ill. Even Sophie, with her perfect makeup and her Hermès scarf, looked washed out. Gray around the edges.Madison was asleep against my shoulder.Her breath came slow and even, warm against my neck. She'd been asleep for almost an hour now, her small body heavy with the particular weight of exhausted children."Coffee?"Thomas's voice. Low. Careful. He was holding a paper cup, steam rising from the surface.I shook my head.He sat down anyway. Not next to me—there wasn't room, with Madison sprawled across half the couch—but close. Close enough that I could smell the coffee, dark and bitter, cutting through the nothing-smell of the hospital air."You should eat something," he said."I'm fine."He didn't respond. Just sat there, holding his coffe

Chapter: Chapter 498 BeforeMia's POVI didn't sleep.I tried. For the first hour, I lay in bed and stared at the ceiling and told myself that sleep would come.It didn't.So I got up. Made tea. Let it go cold on the counter. Made another cup. Let that one go cold too. I cleaned the kitchen even though it was already clean. I folded laundry that didn't need folding. I sat on the couch with Gas's head in my lap, her pregnant belly rising and falling with each breath, and I watched the numbers on my phone change.3:47. 3:48. 3:49.It came anyway.The light crept through the curtains, gray at first, then that pale gold that means the day has started whether you're ready or not. I watched it happen. Watched the room transform from dark to light, shadow to color. My eyes were dry and scratchy from crying, the skin around them tight and swollen. I caught my reflection in the window glass and looked away.Gas lifted her head when I stood up, her dark eyes following me across the room. She'd been restless all night too,

CAR-T cell infusion combined with targeted lymphodepletion."I stared at him."Hugo's team has been monitoring my markers," he continued. His voice was steady. Too steady. "My baseline has improved enough that I'm finally eligible. There's a clinical trial at Johns Hopkins—one of the leading researchers in autoimmune disorders. They accepted me three days ago.""Three days," I said. "You've known for three days.""Yes.""Were you going to tell me at all?" My voice cracked. "Or were you just going to disappear into a hospital tomorrow and hope I didn't notice?""I was going to tell you tonight.""Tonight. The night before." I laughed. It sounded wrong. "Twelve hours. Wow.

The Alpha King's Runaway Puppy
"I won't marry you, it's just an accident."
I buried my face in my hands, trying to block out the sight of the Alpha's strong, naked body next to me. He had just proposed, but I didn't even know his name. What the hell had I done last night after getting drunk?
"Accident? You are my mate. Didn't you feel that?" He gripped my hand tightly, his eyes burning with danger.
"No, that's impossible..." I exclaimed in panic.
Because I was a wolfless Omega.
***
Harper Laurier was one of the daughters of the Slivergray Pack Alpha, but not the real one. As a wolfless Omega, she was nearly isolated and bullied by the entire pack. Heartbroken and battered, she decided to leave the pack and find a way to awaken her wolf. But an accident brought this ordinary 18-year-old girl's life into contact with the first prince of the Werewolf Kingdom.
The dangerous and charming prince claimed to be her mate and asked for her hand in marriage, but Harper didn't feel it at all.
Should she promise him? Or should she live a life uncontrolled by anyone?
As the first heir to the Alpha King, countless assassination attempts left Wyatt Elliot cold and paranoid. He decided to trust no one, and nothing could stop him from ascending to the throne.
However, a girl suddenly entered his life and opened his long-frozen heart. Her fatal attraction told him she was his mate. He couldn't wait to make her his own, but she was unaware of the mate bond and even tried to run away from him.
How would Wyatt treat the first girl to reject him?
Should he forcefully possess her or gently win her trust and heart?

Chapter: EPILOGUEThird POV Wyatt went into hyper-protective mode after Harper became pregnant. He watched her every move like a hawk. "I feel like my freedom of movement is being violated," Harper complained, running her hand over her large belly and smiling mischievously at Wyatt from the mirror. She was four months pregnant now, and only three weeks away from her due date. Her child would be a winter baby. Harper turned around, feigning annoyance. "Did you hear what I said? I don't need a private nurse! I am a nurse myself!" "I know you're a great nurse, honey. " Wyatt approached and put his arms around her. "But even the greatest nurse can't deliver a baby for herself. It's all for your safety." Harper screwed up her face. "We already have five maids you've hired in the house. I have no privacy left." Wyatt kissed Harper's forehead. "All I ask is that they check on you every hour to make sure you haven't fainted. I can't have you fainting in the bathroom again." Harper couldn't reall

The usually elegant and beautiful Luna Queen looked a little casual today.

Gathered around it were dozens of werewolves in human form, dressed in simple yet elegant leather and fur garb. Beyond them, a ring of guests attended the wedding - witches, leaders of other shapeshifting clans, invited by Wyatt.Compared to the grandeur of previous kings and queens' weddings, Wyatt and Harper had chosen the most traditional of ceremonies, one that was natural and unpretentious.Many werewolves had chosen human-style weddings recently, but for Harper, pledging her love in the moonlight was the image she had cherished since childhood.

Last night, all hell broke loose on social media. Someone dropped a bombshell, revealing Harper's identity. They're saying she's not just any girl but a half-breed witch, and not just any witch, but a damn spy."Handing Wyatt a laptop, Steven pointed to the headline that practically screamed at them: "Revealed: True Identity of the Werewolf King's Fiancée - Bewitching Spy Unmasked."As Wyatt skimmed the article, he saw a photo of Harper standing alongside her mother, none other than Sophia, the head witch.

Chapter: Epilogue BerniceThe gentle sea breeze ruffled my hair as I stood on the balcony of our Hamptons beach house, watching the sun dip below the horizon. Ten years had passed since that first charity gala, a decade filled with more love, laughter, and fulfillment than I could have ever imagined."Penny for your thoughts?" Christian's voice came from behind me, as familiar and comforting as ever.I turned, smiling as he handed me a glass of wine. "Just reflecting. It's hard to believe it's been ten years."Christian nodded, leaning against the railing beside me. "Ten amazing years. And you know what? I have a feeling the best is still to come."As if on cue, the sound of children's laughter floated up from the beach below. I looked down to see Hope, now fourteen, chasing her younger siblings, seven-year-old Ethan and five-year-old Olivia, through the surf. Melissa and Alex's twins, eight-year-old Sophie and Lucas, were building an elaborate sandcastle nearby."Should we call them in for dinner?" I

I smoothed down the front of my own gown - a midnight blue creation that Cathy had insisted I wear - and scanned the room, making sure everything was in place for our charity gala."Relax, Bernie," Christian murmured in my ear, his hand warm on the small of my back. "Everything looks perfect."I turned to him, drinking in the sight of him in his tuxedo. Even after all these years, he still took my breath away. "I know, I know. I just want tonight to be perfect. We've worked so hard on this."Christian smiled, pressing a quick kiss to my temple. "It will be perfect. The Edward Hamilton Foundation's first major fundraiser - how could it be anything but?"I nodded, taking a deep breath to calm my nerves. We had spent months planning this gala, bringing together all our friends and family to support the foundation's mission of

"They do. It's nice to see Melissa like this, isn't it? So carefree and content."I nodded, feeling a warmth spread through my chest. After everything Melissa had been through, seeing her find happiness with Alex felt like a small miracle.As we approached the Bethesda Fountain, I noticed Alex becoming increasingly fidgety.

Chapter: Chapter 194 Cathy was filing for divorce!BerniceThe shrill ring of my phone pierced through the peaceful silence of our bedroom at an ungodly hour. I fumbled for it, nearly knocking over the lamp in my sleep-addled state."Hello?" I mumbled, squinting at the too-bright screen."BERNICE!" Cathy's voice exploded through the speaker, causing me to jerk the phone away from my ear. "I need you! It's an emergency! "I sat up, instantly alert. "Cathy? What's wrong? Is Lily okay?""Lily? Oh, she's fine. Sleeping like an angel, the little traitor," Cathy huffed. "No, it's much worse. I'm filing for divorce!"I blinked, trying to process this information. "Divorce?! Cathy, what are you talking about?""I'm leaving Taylor!" she wailed dramatically. "I can't take it anymore, Bernie. He's driving me insane! Do you know what he did?""What did he do?" I asked cautiously, already suspecting this was going to be something ridiculous."He left his socks on the floor. AGAIN!" Cathy's voice rose to a pitch that I'm sure only dogs could hear.

"How was your trip?""Wonderful, George, thank you," Christian replied, carefully lifting the still-sleeping Hope from her car seat. "But it's good to be home."I followed them into the building, my mind already racing with all the things we needed to do. Unpack, sort through mail, check in with work...

I asked, smoothing down her unruly curls.Hope nodded enthusiastically. "See sheep!" she declared, her face lighting up with joy.I laughed, remembering the picture books of Scotland we'd been reading to her. "That's right, we're going to see lots of sheep.
