“That’s understandable,” my father said. “You’ve been through a very difficult experience.” I nodded in agreement. “Has your investigation uncovered anything?” I asked hopefully. “No much,” he admitted. “We’re going to keep looking. I won’t allow anyone to harm my family and get away with it.”"
Alexander’s POVNews of Ella’s kidnapping had remained mostly contained. Her father was working hard to ensure it, and I was doing my part to keep the rumors from spreading in my own pack.Rogue activity in the south was an issue that none of the Alphas wanted to admit they had lost control over. Th
I stared at the reminder on my phone. How could I have forgotten such an important thing as my best friend’s birthday? Amanda must have been furious with me.Was that the reason David had snuck off to see her in the original timeline? Did he feel the need to cheer her up and show her that her birthd
The day of the wedding arrived before I knew it.Everything was so busy; the entire morning felt hectic as I rushed around, trying to ensure that every detail was handled appropriately.I wasn’t sure where David was, except that he had told me he needed to arrange parking and transportation. I suspe
The old me would have been outraged and hurt by Amanda's dress, but the current me was only annoyed. Was she trying to pull something to embarrass me, or was it just an attempt to get David’s attention for herself?There was no way I could know unless I asked her. That would be a mistake, though. I
I stared at the young, panicked driver as I tried to make sense of his words.Of course, we invited the Alpha King to the wedding—it would be an insult not to—but he never attended events like this. There were too many weddings too frequently, and he didn’t want to give the appearance of favoritism

“So, are you going to tell me now what this big plan of yours is?” he asked. “Not yet,” I replied, smiling at the flicker of frustration on his face. “It’s a surprise. You’ll find out when we get there.” Alexander sighed dramatically, feigning defeat, and offered me his hand. “Well, we should ge
Ella POV My first week as Alexander's wife was... interesting. The media buzzed endlessly about our wedding, and speculation about what Alexander would do next was constant. Pregnancy rumors had already begun to circulate, which I couldn’t help but laugh at. Living with Alexander turned out to b
“Of course,” Alexander said smoothly. “I believe there were some forms that required Ella’s signature?” “Yes, of course,” Dr. Bowman replied. He walked over to the nurse’s desk, opened a drawer, and retrieved a stack of papers. Grabbing a clipboard and pen, he brought them over to me. “You just
Ella POV “What do you think the announcement is going to be?” I asked after we were safely in the car, heading back toward the capital. “I suspect it had something to do with Elizabeth. She and Damien Rose seemed quite close, and the way they danced together all night certainly had people talkin
It only took a few minutes for both of us to get ready. As we stood by the door, Alexander glanced at me, his expression curious. “Are you okay?” he asked, studying me. “I’m fine,” I replied, a little too quickly. His brow arched slightly. “Are you sure? You seem… disturbed.” “I…” I hesitate
Ella POV "Wake up, lovebirds! It's nearly noon!" The sound of Christopher Slater's voice shattered the comfortable silence. I jolted awake, but I didn’t get far—wrapped securely in a warm, firm embrace. Blinking the sleep from my eyes, I found Alexander’s face less than an inch from my own, his

“Yes,” I said simply. His sharp scoff startled me, and for a moment, I felt the sting of his reaction. But before I could say anything, he reached for my hand, his expression softening. “You spent your whole life dreaming of that day, only for that bastard David to turn it into a miserable exper
Third Person POV “Damn her! Damn her! Damn her!” Amanda screamed, slamming the door behind her. The wedding guests were gone, though it was still early. They had fled, repelled by the tension radiating off David like a storm cloud. People had known, had sensed, that he was furious. And no amount
