What do you think about Evans?
A FINAL GOODBYE MILES’ POV I was still simmering with anger after Evans’ outburst earlier. As much as I hated to admit it, I couldn’t completely fault him. His loyalty to Rhea ran deep, and honestly, I respected that about him. But blaming Roxy? That didn’t sit well with me either. She had dropped
My chest tightened again. Why do I feel like this? I questioned silently. This was what I wanted, wasn’t it? The freedom, the space… the distance. Maybe it was the guilt of not being there for her when she needed me the most. Maybe that was all I felt. Guilt. But the emptiness felt heavier than I h
STRANGE EMOTIONS MILES’ POV I felt something wet sliding down my cheek. Frowning, I wiped at it with my thumb and paused when I realized what it was. Tears. I sighed deeply, furrowing my brows. Why am I crying? An Alpha like me, crying over a letter? A letter from a woman I never wanted to be
She smiled faintly again, but this time it felt like goodbye. “Wake up, Alpha. It’s time for you to eat and take your medications,” she said, her voice becoming distant. “Rhea, wait—” I called, reaching out, but she tapped my leg lightly. “Alpha. Alpha, wake up,” she repeated, her voice firmer now
Regrets MILES’ POV The shrill ringing of my phone jolted me awake. My neck throbbed in protest as I lifted my head from the desk, where I had clearly passed out the night before. Squinting at the screen, I saw Roxy’s name flashing. I sighed heavily, tossed the phone back onto the desk, and let it
“Oh, my son. Look what’s happened to you,” she exclaimed, wrapping her arms around me. Her hands cupped my face gently as she scanned me from head to toe, her eyes glistening with worry. I resisted the urge to push her away and let her finish. As soon as she stepped aside, I walked into the living
A New Place RHEA’S POV I stepped out of the vehicle and into the bustling station. Not a single head turned my way. Here, I was just another person among the crowd, and for the first time in what felt like forever, I felt invisible in the best way. A new life had begun for me. Here, I wasn’t the
I walked closer, marveling at the larger-than-life images. One depicted Yuri’s father in his Alpha prime; proud, strong, and imposing. Another featured his mother, whose striking features mirrored Yuri’s. Then, there was one of Yuri himself, dressed in full Alpha regalia, his once-long hair cascadin
I chuckled. “I would be honored, Captain Bad.” He suddenly leaned in, voice dropping into that adorable secret-sharing tone. “Can I ask you something?” “Anything.” His eyes flicked around before landing on me. “Do you ride a horse?” I blinked. “A bike, yeah. Horse? Not really. Want to try one?”
Two more tries later, he got it. The claw finally clutched the plush dragon like destiny itself had intervened and dropped it into the chute. Sekani screamed like he'd just won a million bucks. “WE GOT IT!” I bent down and pulled the prize out, handing it to him with a grin. “For the Champion of t
Wild Dreams and Small Victories MILES’ POV The next morning, we strolled into the arcade just after a heavy breakfast that Sekani nearly inhaled. Sekani was hyper and excited. The boy was all wired up and jittery with excitement. He had begged we hit the arcade before heading back to the hotel roo
“Good game,” he added, giving Sekani a nod. “We’ll get going now. Bye, Captain.” “Bye, Jill. Bye, Mr. Wellington,” Sekani called out as they walked away. I waited until they were out of earshot, then turned to Sekani with a smirk. “Captain Bad?” He puffed out his chest proudly. “Coach said
Team Sekani MILES’ POV Taking Sekani to his game was the highlight of my day. We weren’t exactly on the same page yet, but I could tell, he was glad I came. He didn’t say it outright, but it was in his eyes, in the way he kept glancing over from the field like he wanted to be sure I was still t
“You sure? It’s on our way. I insist,” I said. She gave a small, polite smile. “Miles… you two need time,” she said softly, already typing something into her phone. “I don’t want to interfere.” I watched her fingers dance across the screen. She didn’t even look up. She was lying to my face. She do
Bruises Beneath the Skin MILES’ POV Holmes eased the car to a stop in front of Rhea’s house. The sun was just beginning to peek through the early morning clouds, casting long shadows across the driveway. Rhea was standing on the porch with Sekani at her side. His suitcase was already packed and
Where We StandRHEA'S POVFive days later. “Mummy! Grandma took me to an ice cream shop!” Sekani announced the moment I stepped into the hospital room.The sound of his excited voice was the first thing that hit me, followed by the cool scent of antiseptics and the soft hum of machines. I smil
A Soft Place to Fall RHEA’S POV I stood by the doorway of Pa Dennis ward, my heart pounding with uncertainty. I wasn’t sure what kind of reception awaited me. Would Ma Lisa lash out again? Would she say more things that would leave me shattered? I sucked in a deep breath. Ma Lisa turned at the so
