"You obviously don't care about Tabby, so give her to us," I say, watching her. She keeps hate filled eyes on Jasmine. "Nope, I will get money for her. He had to have been paid to work for you. Shouldn't he have some kind of life insurance. I deserve compensation for having that thing grow inside
Jasmine pov Tabitha is the sweetest little girl I ever laid eyes on, and that says a lot considering who her mother was. Alice hasn't been back or even called to see if her child is alive or dead. We took Tabby home, and everyone there loves her. She sits with Eve most days and rubs her belly gent
"Please don't leave me," she sobs, and I nod to Doctor Frank and get her to look in my eyes as he checks her. I purr, and Tabby rubs her hair. "You're okay...your okay...we are here, and we plan to stay," Tabby sings, and Eve looks at her. Tabby smiles as she puts her forehead to Eve's, and I watc
Kaiden pov I race to the border, and true to the other rogue leaders' words, there stood a pack of rogues. Cecilia hired anybody. My wolf growls out. I sigh. "What do you want?"I glare as Grayson stood beside me. "Cecilia owes us money we came to collect," is said, and I sigh loud. "Her mon
"A month," she choked out. I hug her, and so does Ian. "Yes, honey, one month to be sure they breathe okay on their own and to make sure their lungs catch up. All three got an excellent team on their case to ensure they thrive. That will give you time to heal up and rest because once them three co
Kaiden pov I watch the rogues shove Tabitha's uncle forward, and he collapses with a grunt. "Tell your alpha how you gave your brother up to us," he is ordered. "I did no such thing. You fucks ambushed him. You can't fight one on one",He spits blood at the rogue leader. "You begged us to spa
"I'm sorry alpha ",he hisses in pain. "Don't be. I know you were outnumbered. I'm sorry about your twin",he nods sadly. "He was the best brother ever, but we know the drill alpha," he sighs shakily. "You have a niece Tom, her name is Tabitha. Her mother was a human. Her name is Alice she sold
Jasmine pov I get up and head out to cook. "Sweets," I hear Kaiden call for me. I smile, loving that nickname now. "Kitchen," I call back. He walks in and kisses me, making my face flame. Tabby is sitting there eating, and I hear her cute giggles as he kisses me with exaggeration. "Ewww da
Beth pov I reclined against a mountain of pillows, Liam curled contentedly on my chest. My son's silver-touched eyes watched me with impossible awareness as I traced his tiny features with a gentle finger. He is so beautiful. "You have your daddy's jawline," I murmured, smiling as Liam caught my
Beth pov I floated in a strange twilight state, aware but disconnected. I could sense everything happening around me – Liam's powerful presence, the pack's concern, Sophia's healing magic. But nothing felt quite as real as Alex's pain radiating through our mate bond. Night had fallen again, our
Alexander pov The crisis came without warning. Beth had just finished the formal presentation of Liam to the pack when I felt her falter through our mate bond. One moment she was radiant with new motherhood, the next she was collapsing in my arms, blood spreading rapidly across her ceremonial dres

Alexander pov The formal sentencing took place at moonrise. Victoria stood before the council. Her perfect poise finally cracked after the Moon Goddess's visitation. She couldn't quite meet Beth's eyes as the council prepared to deliver their judgment. "Victoria Blackwood," Gregory intoned, his
Beth pov The council meeting had devolved into circular arguments about tradition and bloodlines when the moonlight changed. I felt it first – a shift in the air that made my unborn pup's energy surge with recognition. The great hall's windows blazed with sudden silver radiance, cutting off Gregor
Alexander pov The pack council arrived at sunset – twelve of the oldest and most powerful alphas in North America. Beth watched from the master bedroom window as their vehicles pulled through the gates, her hand absently rubbing her active baby bump. "They won't be able to ignore this evidence,
Beth pov I walked into the pack's holding cells with unhurried grace, one hand resting protectively on my pregnant belly. Victoria sat in the reinforced cell, still managing to look elegant despite her circumstances. Her perfect features arranged themselves into a sneer as I approached. "Come to
Alexander pov Victoria chose her moment carefully. Beth was resting – her advancing pregnancy making afternoon naps necessary – when the auburn-haired wolf cornered me in my study. She'd timed it perfectly, waiting until Melissa was occupied with perimeter checks. "Alex Matthews," she practicall
