Carina’s POV

The session had just wrapped up, and everyone couldn’t stop talking about one thing: the part my stepbrothers Antonio, Miguel, and Rodrigo hosted. I’d spent the entire evening dodging conversations about them and their "charming antics," as the girls at school loved to gush about. It was infuriating.

Tuesday morning was already off to a bad start. I came to school late, thanks to my mom, who had decided that morning was the perfect time to scold me for a situation my stepbrothers had clearly set me up for.

"You’re irresponsible, Carina! When will you take things seriously?" Mom yelled as I tried to eat my breakfast in peace.

I groaned. "Mom, I didn’t even do anything. Antonio borrowed my notes and forgot to return them, and now my teacher thinks I skipped classwork!"

But my words fell on deaf ears. "Excuses! You’re too lenient with those boys. If you don’t stand up for yourself, you’ll always get in trouble for their mistakes," she snapped.

The irony. How could I stand up

    Carina’s POVRING! RING! RING!The bell finally blared, signaling the end of my second-to-last class for the day. Relief flooded through me as I sank back into my chair."Thank God," I muttered under my breath. "Just one more to go. I can survive this."The day had already been a disaster. Between Mr. Willis and Antonio, Miguel, and Rodrigo acting like... whatever they thought they were, I was officially done with everyone."Carina, you okay?" Sofia, my seatmate and probably the only sane person in my life, leaned over with concern."Just tired," I said, forcing a weak smile.Sofia frowned, tucking a strand of her dark hair behind her ear. "You’ve been off all day. Did something happen?""Where do I even start?" I sighed."Uh-oh, spill." She leaned closer, her brown eyes wide with interest.I hesitated, glancing around the classroom. The other students were either chatting in groups or packing up their things. "It’s a long story.""I’ve got time," Sofia said, her tone teasing but her

"What now?""Get some rest," he said, his voice unusually serious. "And if you start feeling worse...""I’ll be fine," I interrupted, stepping out.Miguel leaned out his window. "You say that, but you look like you’re about to keel over."I glared at him. "Goodbye, Miguel.""Call us if you need anything!" Rodrigo called as I slammed the door behind me.I didn’t bother looking back as I headed for the front door, their voices fading as I shut the door behind me.As soon as I stepped inside, the exhaustion hit me like a truck. I leaned against the doo

    Carina’s POVAntonio’s voice thundered through the bathroom. "What the hell is that?"I froze, my heart racing. The test slipped from my trembling fingers, clattering to the tiled floor. For a moment, neither of us moved. Then, snapping out of my shock, I quickly snatched it up and glared at him.“Do you not understand the meaning of privacy?” I yelled, my voice shaking with anger. “Who even told you to come in here?”He raised his hands, his expression torn between concern and frustration. “Your mom said you were vomiting. She told me to check on you.”“And that gives you the right to barge into the bathroom? Are you out of your mind?”“Carina, I was just—”“Just what? Invading my space? God, Antonio! Do you not understand boundaries?” I was shouting so loudly now, my voice echoed in the small room.“I was worried!” he snapped, his voice rising to match mine. “You’ve been acting off all day, and then I hear from Mom that you’re sick. What was I supposed to do? Just ignore it?”“Yes!

    Carina’s POVI woke up feeling groggy and nauseous. My head throbbed slightly, and my stomach churned like I was on a boat in the middle of a storm. I sat up slowly, groaning."Ugh, what is wrong with me?" I muttered, rubbing my temples.Was it the stress? The endless thoughts? Probably. But a small voice in my head whispered otherwise."No, no," I said aloud, shaking my head. "Get yourself together, Carina. You’re fine. You’re totally fine."Dragging myself out of bed, I shuffled to the bathroom, hoping a shower would snap me out of this fog. As I glanced at myself in the mirror, my reflection stared back with tired eyes and a pale complexion.“Not what I think,” I whispered to my reflection. “It better not be what I think.”I brushed my teeth, trying to focus on anything other than the appointment waiting for me. I kept glancing at the pregnancy test I’d discarded last night, half-tempted to fish it out of the trash just to double-check.“Nope. Not doing that.” I spat out toothpaste

What’s your excuse for looking like the world just ended?”I groaned, turning away from him. “Not now, Henry.”“Looks like you need a ride,” he said casually, leaning against his car.“I don’t need anything from you,” I shot back, even though I was seconds away from accepting out of sheer desperation.He chuckled, infuriatingly calm. “Right. That’s why you’re standing here, glaring at your dead phone like it owes you money.”I glared at him. “What do you want, Henry?”“Nothing,” he said with a shrug. “Just being a good Samaritan. Come on, Carina. Get in. You’ll get wherever you’re going a lot faster with me than standing here hoping for a miracle.”I hesitated. The last thing I wanted was to be stuck in a car with Henry, but what choice did I have? The hospital wasn’t exactly around the corner, and time wasn’t on my side.“Fine,” I muttered, walking over to his car.He grinned as he unlocked the doors. “Knew y

    Antonio's POV"That’s between me and her," he said, his tone firm.My patience snapped. Grabbing him by the collar, I pulled him closer. "Listen to me, Henry. If you’ve done anything to upset her, you’ll regret it. Do you understand?""Alright, alright!" he said quickly, his eyes wide. "I swear, I haven’t done anything."I released him, stepping back. "Stay away from her."Henry nodded, smoothing his shirt nervously. "Fine. Message received."I turned and walked back to our table, my blood still boiling."What did he say?" Miguel asked as I sat down."He claims he hasn’t done anything," I said, picking up my drink. "But I don’t trust him.""Neither do I," Rodrigo muttered. "We need to keep an eye on him.""Agreed," I said. "And on Carina. Whatever’s going on, we’ll figure it out. Together."The waiter returned with our food, setting the platters down in front of usMiguel’s phone started ringing just as the waiter was setting down our food.

I know the results came out positive, but I had to tell them it didn’t.”Dr. Patel frowned. “Carina, this is strictly against my ethics as a doctor. I can’t forge a negative pregnancy test for you.”“I understand,” I said quickly, my voice pleading. “But you don’t know my brothers. They’re… protective. If they find out about this, everything will spiral out of control.”Her gaze softened slightly, but her tone remained professional. “I get that you’re in a tough spot, but lying about something as serious as this isn’t the an

    Carina’s POVI sat up on my bed, feeling the weight of everything pressing on me. My head was spinning, and my hands trembled as I thought about the secret I was keeping. How long could I keep this a secret? The question looped in my mind, over and over again, like an endless chant.It felt like a time bomb, ticking away inside of me, waiting to explode. I couldn’t let anyone find out—not yet. The consequences would be too severe. What would happen if my mother found out? Her happiness would be shattered. But what if she found out this—that I was pregnant with my stepbrother’s baby? Her husband’s son? I shuddered just thinking about it. I would be dead. I had no doubt.Turning restlessly, I flopped back down onto the bed, burying my face in the pillow. The stress, the fear, the guilt—they all mingled together, suffocating me. I couldn’t tell anyone. Not yet.Suddenly, my mother’s voice cut through the silence, sharp and demanding. “Carina!”I winced. My heart skipped a beat. Why was s

    Carina’s POV A few months back, my dad’s shipments were being raided by rogue wolves. It was getting too much. He told me and my brothers, and we swung into action. We made sure we traced where these rogue wolves were from, and when we found them, we attacked. Eliminating every living person in their pack.The Black Moon Pack.Like every single person.I knew we weren’t supposed to. Just those that raided my dad's shipment were meant to be gone. But… nah. I couldn’t stop. Out of anger, me and my brothers did this. Now, I think they are back.I was very surprised. Or did any of them survive?Is Henry one of them?All these questions just filled my head. For them to even have an idea to follow us, to keep track of Carina, to kidnap our kids… this person must be really good. Really calculated.I was so angry and pissed that, even as I drove, my wolf almost took over because of the rage. I just had to keep on suppressing it.

    Carina’s POV I didn’t know why I had such a strong rage when I heard the news. It was like fire had been set loose in my veins, burning everything in its path. The fury inside me was so high as I sped in my Benz, heading straight to my father’s pack. It had been a long time since I felt this kind of rage.All in my head now was Henry. I had to find him. And when I did, I was going to use my own hands and snuff the life out of him. My grip on the steering wheel was tight, my knuckles turning white as the thoughts in my head grew darker.Ever since I met those kids, I felt something different, something I couldn’t explain. A connection that ran deeper than just Carina’s kids. I didn’t know why. Maybe I did, but I just didn’t want to say it out loud. Carina had never told us who their father was. She avoided the topic like the plague, dodging every question, every hint. But deep down, I knew the truth. We all did.They were ours. Mine, Miguel’s, Antonio’s. Our blood, our heirs.And I wo

My legs felt weak, like I was going to collapse.The driver groaned. “Black… van… masked men…” He gasped for air. “I… I couldn’t…”I didn’t wait. I shot up and ran toward the car. Maybe they were hiding. Maybe it was some cruel joke. I pulled open the back door so fast, my hands hurt.Empty.No backpacks. No lunch boxes. No tiny shoes. Nothing.They were gone.I let out a scream. A loud, painful scream that shook through my entire body. I felt like something had just been ripped out of my soul.“No… no… NO!!!”Ethan was behind me in an instant. “Carina, listen to me, we’ll find them.”I turned on him, eyes wild. “FIND THEM?! ETHAN, MY KIDS WERE TAKEN! SOMEONE TOOK MY BABIES! DO YOU GET THAT?! DO YOU?!”Ethan grabbed my shoulders. “Carina, look at me. LOOK AT ME.”I was breathing too fast. My chest was tight. I felt like I was going to pass out.“I swear to you,” Ethan said, voice firm. “We will get them back. But you have to

    Carina’s POV I won’t lie… at this point, I was really pissed. The main reason I left my stepbrothers and my mom was because I wanted to be away from them. I fucking literally saw these guys a few hours back before I left my mom’s house. Like, how the fuck do they just want to come into my life by force? Can’t they just leave me alone?All these thoughts were swirling in my head, making my blood boil. I just wanted to be calm, to not overthink it. So, I sat down, trying to steady my breath.Ethan, being Ethan, got up and walked over to the kitchen. I could hear him moving things around, then he came back with a glass of water, sitting beside me. He handed it to me, his voice gentle.“Drink up.”I looked at him, then at the glass, then back at him. “No.”He sighed, shaking his head dramatically. “Carina, you need to hydrate. You look like you’re about to combust.”“I don’t need water, Ethan. I need peace.”“You need water more.”“I’m not drinking it.”“Wow.” He leaned back, studying me

    Carina’s POV "Welcome, ma'am," Lina said as I pulled up to my house.I'm finally home. As I drove in, that feeling of comfort just filled me up. The fact that Lina was here shocked me. I thought she would have already left. I parked my car where I always do and got out to stretch my tired muscles. Lina came up to me with a smile on her face. "Hi, Lina. "How are you?" I asked, shutting my car door. "I'm fine, ma'am," she answered sweetly. "Welcome home, ma'am." "Thanks," I said, giving her a small smile. "What brings you here this early? I wasn’t expecting you." "Ohh… nothing serious," she said, waving a hand dismissively. "Sir Ethan said you would be coming back this morning, so I thought I should come and greet you personally." "Aww… that’s really sweet. Thank you so much," I said truly as we started walking towards the house. Lina followed closely, and as we stepped inside, I turned to her. "So, how was work?" She instantly brightened up, her eyes sparkling with joy. "It’s b

    CHAPTER 84Chapter 84: My Bullies, my Stepbrothers, My MatesCarina’s POVI just stayed quiet and walked out of the house. My bag’s wheels thudded against the ground as I made my way to my car. I wasn't going to allow any of them to change my mind on this. "I’m done," I said aloud, my voice strong even as I pressed the key to pop the trunk open.The sound of the car beeping gave me a small sense of pleasure. At least something in my life still worked as expected. I threw my bag into the trunk with more force than necessary, then slammed it shut. Climbing into the driver’s seat, I sighed deeply. My hands shook slightly as I gripped the driving wheel. I wasn’t worried. No, this was excitement. I was doing the right thing. I had to tell myself of that. As I put the key into the ignition, my eyes flicked up to the rearview mirror. There she was. My mum. Standing on the balcony, her arms crossed tightly across her chest, her face a mask of forced calm. But I could see it—the sadness in h

The sound of the wheels bumping against each step was the only thing keeping me from totally losing it."Wow, so you were serious," my stepdad said, his fork stopping halfway to his mouth. He was sitting at the kitchen table, a plate of pancakes and syrup in front of him. He looked amused—or maybe angry, I couldn’t tell."Yeah, I have to leave. Liam and Leo have really missed me, and I have work to attend to," I said sharply, directing the last part at my mum as she appeared at the top of the stairs.Her face was a mixture of anger and worry. "What is your problem?" she snapped, descending the steps quickly. "Do you have any idea what kind of danger you’re going into? Your dad is an Alpha! Let him tell you the best way you can stay safe!""Mum!" I shouted, my voice shaking with a mix of anger and disbelief. "I will be fine. Don't act like you care ri

    Carina’s POVI entered my room and sat down on the bed, my hands shaking as I attempted to gather my thoughts. I was trying to get organized. In all honesty, I had no idea why all of this was taking place. My life had been great, or at least as near to perfect as I could make it, until just a few days ago. I had a secure career, a small family of my own whom I really adored, and I was at peace. And what about now? It was all because I had come to attend my mother's party that everything began to spin out of control.My chest tightened as I stared at the wardrobe that was hanging on the wall, and memories began to come back to me. That closet was more than simply a piece of furniture. It was a representation of the grief and loneliness that I had been harbouring for many years. I could still hear Mum’s voice, icy and piercing, as she shut me inside for hours. She had termed it punishment. I had termed it torture. “Funny how life works,” I mumbled sadly. “One day, you’re a scared littl

I will make sure this doesn’t happen again.”I nodded, unable to muster anything more enthusiastic. “That’s really thoughtful of you, but honestly… I just came back to honor my mum’s request. I don’t belong here anymore.”“Don’t say that,” Mr. Kowalski replied, stepping closer. “This is your home. Why would you want to leave?”“Because I need to,” I said, my voice steady and calm. “I have made up my mind. This place is not mine anymore.”He frowned slightly, clearly not understanding. “Is it because of your company in the other city?” “No, that’s not it,” I said. “I’ve built a life there since I ran away. I love it there. I want to stay there.”Mum stepped forward, looking between us. “Carina, please. We want you to stay. We can work things out together. You and the boys have a family here.”I took a deep breath, pushing back the frustration. “No, Mum. You do
