Jaselyn's POV

I couldn't tell if it was the anxiety but an excruciating pain seized my abdomen. In an instant, it felt like my insides were being squeezed and turned inside out.

I winced, gripping my stomach. Another wave of the sharp pain tore a scream out of me and suddenly, my legs felt like jelly and they couldn't seem to hold me up anymore so I crouched down but the pain just kept aggravating, hitting me like a torrential downpour

“Jas?” I heard Rion's voice but my head was heavy, I felt nauseous and the pain was almost blinding. I couldn't look up at him. And suddenly the room was spinning or rather it left like I was floating in space. My stomach kept twisting and I could feel the bile in my throat.

A blood curdling scream escaped my lungs when I saw the blood trickling down my legs. And right then I realized with horror that I could no longer feel my baby moving. My little gremlin was usually active and always moving, he would go full ninja at night with the kicking but now th

I think my baby's coming.The doctor instantly senses my agitations and realizes that I've gone into labor.I try to take deep breaths so as to lessen the pain of the contractions but somehow, I'm unable to do away with the fear that something will go wrong with my child. My baby is just 28 weeks but due to the circumstances, I'm having to bring him into such a cruel world so early. What if he is born disabled? I would never want my child to have to live a life of pain because I wasn't able to carry him to full term.

    Jaselyn's POV The deafening silence that followed was scarier than what I thought I just heard.“I'm sorry, what?” I asked the doctor, a hundred percent sure that I had misheard what she just said.She blinked and stared at me dumbly. “Give me my baby. He's probably weak because he's premature and that's why he isn't crying. Hand him to me so I can feed him, all he needs is his mother's milk.” I demanded with outstretched hands.“Jaselyn, dear…..” The doctor began but I glared dangerously at her.“Give me my baby.” I repeated sternly and she placed him in my arms.He was small and covered in a thin layer of vernix but he was pale; eyes closed, sleeping peacefully like an angel.I caressed his cheek and realized he was cold, sparse tiny eyelashes unmoving. This is a little odd, isn't it? A baby who was born asleep.He's just tired, I need to wake him up.I patted my fingers on him gently, my eyes filling up with tears but I couldn't even tell why. My baby is fine and he's right here

    Jaselyn's POV “Jaselyn, please get up. We have to get you cleaned up and treated. You just gave birth, you need food and rest and you need to heal as well. When you're healed enough, you can go see Celio in the morgue. We've decided to keep his corpse there till you and the Alpha reach a decision on what you want to do.” The doctor said but I wasn't even listening, too overwhelmed by my grief.The door opened but I didn't bother to look up, nothing could possibly alleviate this pain.“Alpha!”That word from the doctor caused me to raise my head in surprise and just like magic, Zane was standing right there, just a few feet away from me.He had on a cool expression, not a single hair out of place while I must look like a total wreck. Where the fuck has he been? Why did he leave me at such a crucial time? Has he come back to his senses?Does he know what has happened?“Our son is dead.” Is the only thing I can say and it comes out so strained and rough like I'd been smoking for months.

    Jaselyn's POVIt must take some sort of horrible luck to be rejected twice by the same person. But yet I find myself in this heart wrenching situation for the second time. The first time the pain had been sharp, instantaneous but this time around, I felt completely numb. Perhaps because I hadn't been granted the chance to even recover from my son's death. I just sat there, motionless, unfeeling.One…. Two minutes pass and the pain suddenly creeps up on me like an ambush and all at once I feel that soul crushing pain but it's worse this time, compounded by my profound grief.There are just no words to describe how I feel right now or to comprehend the callousness of Zane's actions.I just know that I can't take any of this anymore, I just can't. I can't handle it, I wouldn't mind disappearing right now if only it would make the pain go away forever.Nila is silent and her presence is almost faint. The second rejection must have been a huge blow to her, especially after the death of ou

    Jaselyn's POV “No! No way! You're lying, Nae would never do that to me!” I fired back, chest tightening with newly awakened fear, hinging on the hope that I was right.Isla just tsked and looked at me like I was some sort of pitiful creature.I rushed over to Nae, taking her hand in mine.“Don't worry about Isla, Nae. You don't have to feel threatened, I won't believe a word this she devil says. I trust you and I'll believe anything you tell me. I know that you care for me like your own sister and you would never do something as despicable as killing my baby no matter who asked you to.” I assured Nae of my faith in her and I expected her to smile and confirm that I was right but just like the whole of today, the opposite happened.Nae snatched her hand away from mine and turned away from me. I heard her sniff.“Nae? Is something wrong?” “Stop! Stop it! I…… I did it! I did exactly what Isla said. I gave you the poisoned juice and I knew that it was poisoned but I still fed it to you.

    Jaselyn's POVI pushed her with all my strength and she staggered backwards, falling over.“Isla!”Nae rushed over to help her up and I used that opportunity to dart for the door. I didn't care that it hurt to move, my legs were cramped and really heavy and my waist and abdomen didn't feel like mine.But I didn't care about that at that moment. Perhaps it was the adrenaline. I got out of the room and ran through the long halls of the Palace, even pushing past a maid that tried to stop me.Only one thing echoed in my mind.‘I need to get as far away from Isla as possible.’I got to the exit and as usual, it was guarded. I halted upon seeing Blade, my heart rate increasing.And then suddenly, in that moment of tension, I had a flashback about a memory that had completely eluded me. That night when I had seen Blade and Isla together through the kitchen window all those months ago, I wanted to inform Zane about it but I wasn't sure what was going on.I'm not the type so go around spreadin

    Jaselyn's POV I ran as fast as my legs could carry me, through the forest and the vegetation. My head kept pounding incessantly, my stomach churning, I was getting out of breath and my legs were heavy, feeling like they would fail me any minute but I didn't stop.I didn't know where I was going but I just kept running, wanting to get as far away from the palace as possible. I wanted to run away from everyone and everything.I only stopped, completely breathless when I reached a cliff.I rested my hands on my knees, heaving, trying hard to catch my breath. Just then, Isla's words echoed in my mind.‘You have no one left in your life. There's no one that wants you, no one that loves you. The whole world has turned its back on you and everyone you know or love has either left, betrayed you or done both.There's nothing left for you, Jaselyn Everhart.’‘You've been abandoned, with pain and misery as your only companions.’‘Your child is dead, your mate has left you for good, your reputat

    Jaselyn's POV Rion got off of me in an instant, almost like my skin seared his. It hurt, in a strange way. What kind of cruel twist of fate is this? Rion still loves Ziarre and despite how silly it sounds, I still hold some affection for Zane. I clearly recall that yesterday, we were happy together. Just because he rejected me, it doesn't mean all my feelings would disappear instantly. Rion and I have a strong friendship, we support each other and our love for one another is strictly platonic, so why then has the Moon Goddess made us second chance mates? It makes no sense at all.But the invisible bond, like a tightly knitted string, thrums with the desire for affection from Rion. It's so strange, this feeling within me. I don't like it. But at the same time, I dread the thought of rejection. If I got rejected by Rion as well then…….Rion turns away from me, probably reeling from the shock of it all.“How can this be?” He voices aloud, running a hand through his hair.I sit up, tr

    Celio's POV The wooden floor creaked under my knees as I scrubbed away at the dirt, pushing the rag back and forth with all the strength my small, 8 year old body could muster. The chill of the mountain wind seeped through the cracks in the old walls, biting at my skin. My hands were raw and red, the rough texture of the rag scraping against my knuckles. I didn’t mind. I didn’t mind the pain, the hunger gnawing at my stomach, or the loneliness that pressed on me like an iron weight. I was used to it.I glanced out the cracked window at the gray sky that mirrored my feelings. The little shack we lived in sat at the base of the mountain, far away from any Pack. Isla had always told me that it was better this way—away from the people who would look at me and know that I wasn’t wanted, that I was abandoned by the very woman who should have loved me most.“Your mother didn’t want you, Celio,” Isla would say, her voice sharp and filled with disdain. “She threw you away like you were nothing

    Luka's POV The day started out like any other. Mika, Sawyer, and I were playing in the woods behind the palace, chasing each other through the trees, our laughter echoing in the air. At seven years old, we were pretending to be fierce wolves on a hunt, leaping over fallen logs and dodging branches. It was perfect, like it always was when we were together.But then everything changed in an instant.I heard the thud first—a sound so sharp and heavy that it made my heart skip a beat. I stopped and turned around, the world seeming to move in slow motion as I saw Mika crumple to the ground, his face twisted in pain.“Mika!” I shouted, racing back to him. The sight that met me made my stomach lurch. His leg was twisted at an odd angle, and there was blood—so much blood—pouring out of a long, deep gash along his shin. It covered the grass, bright and red, and kept coming. I couldn’t breathe.Sawyer came running up, her eyes huge and frightened as she saw the blood. “Luka, what happened?” sh

    Jaselyn's POV I took his hand, and he pulled me close, holding me from behind as we swayed gently to the music. His lips brushed my ear as he whispered, “You’re beautiful, you know that? Even after everything, you’re still the most beautiful woman I’ve ever seen. And I’m the luckiest man alive to have you.”Tears pricked my eyes, but they weren’t tears of sadness this time. They were tears of happiness, of gratitude. “Rion… you don’t know how much that means to me.”He kissed my neck softly. “You mean everything to me, Jas.”Suddenly, the music stopped, and a projector flickered on. I turned to see a slideshow of pictures—our memories together. Photos of us when we first arrived at the Pack, a few of the whole family, some from the day of our mating ceremony, which also doubled with the coronation, pictures of us as Alpha and Luna at a few events, including one of us at the Peace Ball. Pictures of me with the twins when they were born and finally, pictures of us with Luka and Mika. I

    Jaselyn’s POVExhausted didn’t even begin to cover how I felt. I was beyond it. No, it was more like EXHAUSTED in capital letters, underlined and bold. It had been a few days since Luka and Mika were born, and though I’d prepared myself for the sleepless nights and constant feeding, nothing could have readied me for the complete overwhelm of being a new mother to two newborns at the same time. Rion helped as much as he could. He was always there, doing everything in his power to make things easier for me. But there was only so much even he could do. There were things I had to handle myself—breastfeeding, comforting them when they both decided to cry at the same time, managing the constant pain in my body that hadn’t fully recovered from the trauma of childbirth.Luka was a good feeder. He latched on almost immediately, eager to nurse, but Mika wasn’t doing as well. He struggled with breastfeeding, and that meant more time spent trying to get him to eat, more time stressing about whet

    Jaselyn's POVFive years have passed since the birth of our twin boys.And in those years, Luka and Mika had grown into mischievous, spirited children who constantly kept me on my toes. They were inseparable, their bond unbreakable, and they moved through life with a shared sense of curiosity and adventure.Completely identical, they inherited the dominant Solstice genes with their ebony black hair, deep green eyes, and strikingly beautiful features. They were so similar in appearance that even their grandmother couldn’t tell them apart.Only Rion and I could tell which was Luka and which was Mika, and the boys often used this to their advantage, tricking everyone around them. But when they weren’t up to mischief, they were the sweetest children imaginable—kind, considerate, and always eager to bring a smile to my face.They were the best of friends, always looking out for each other. If one fell ill,

    Rion's POV“That’s it, Luna,” the midwife encouraged. “The hardest part is over. Just one more push, and we’ll have him out.”Jaselyn nodded weakly, her face pale and slick with sweat. She gritted her teeth, her whole body trembling as she summoned the last of her strength. With a final, desperate scream, she pushed again, her body arching off the bed as she bore down with everything she had left.The baby slipped free with a gush of fluid and blood, his tiny body wriggling and slick in the midwife’s hands. “It’s a boy!” she announced, holding him up for us to see, his loud, piercing cries filling the room.My heart swelled with emotion as I gazed at our son, his tiny face scrunched up in a wail, his fists clenched and shaking. Tears blurred my vision as I looked at Jaselyn. “He’s beautiful,” I choked out, my voice thick with emotion. “Jas, you did it. You gave us a

    Rion's POVI slammed my fist against the desk, sending papers flying. The frustration had been building for months, and now it was boiling over. "Dammit!" I cursed, pacing the room in a futile attempt to calm myself. We had conquered the Rain Forest Pack with ease, but it had been a hollow victory. Hadrian, that fool, had chosen to die rather than betray his cousin, Isla. He'd poisoned himself before we could get any information out of him. Another dead end.The Fishers were a twisted bunch. Part of me relished the thought of wiping them out for good, to rid the world of their poison. Isla had slipped through our fingers, and I was beginning to fear we’d never find her. If I could only get my hands on her, I would make her pay for taking Celio. She would wish she had never been born.Blade had been another disappointment, another dead end in our search for Celio. We had pushed him to his absolute limits, hoping that the pain and pressure would force

    Jaselyn's POV“Maybe we could…shower together?” I suggested hesitantly. “It might help me relax.”Rion smiled softly, his eyes filled with understanding. “That sounds like a great idea. Come on, let’s get cleaned up.”We both undressed completely, and I followed him into the bathroom. He turned on the shower, adjusting the water temperature until it was just right, then we stepped under the warm spray together.The water cascaded over us, washing away the tension and the grime from the day. Rion wrapped his arms around me from behind, holding me close as the water streamed down our bodies. I leaned back against him, feeling the steady beat of his heart against my back. His touch was gentle, his hands moving over my skin with care, never lingering too long in one place.He washed my hair, his fingers massaging my scalp in slow, soothing circles. I closed my eyes, letting myself relax under

    Jaselyn's POVI agreed to see Nae, but only because I needed to know if she could give me any information about where Isla might have taken Celio. It was my only lead, and I wasn’t about to let it slip through my fingers, no matter how much I despised Nae.Before heading to see her, I turned to Rion. His clothes were torn and stained with dirt and blood from the battle. He looked tired, and I could see the weariness in his eyes despite his usual confident stance. He needed rest, and he needed to be taken care of. After everything he had done for me, it was the least I could do for him.“Come with me,” I said softly, taking his hand. I led him back to our bedroom, feeling a mixture of nerves and determination. “Rion, I want our lives to go back to normal,” I began, my voice wavering slightly. “I want to feel close to you again.”He looked at me with a mix of surprise and concern. “Jas, you don’t h
