#Chapter 321: A Growing Family

OliviaThe weight of Nathan’s announcement still hung in the air, thick enough to slice through.“I’m the father.”I looked at Layla, her face a blend of shock and relief. Nathan took a few steps over to the kitchen counter where the paternity test results were waiting, still tucked neatly into the envelope. When he returned, he had a heavy expression on his face.“Here. So you can read it for yourself,” he said, holding out the paternity test results toward her.Layla’s slender hands trembled as she took the paper from him, her eyes scanning over the scientific jargon before landing on the conclusion. When she looked back up, her eyes were glassed over with tears.“Nathan,” she said, her voice wavering, “I’m so sorry about all of this.”His eyebrows furrowed, a mix of confusion and concern playing on his face. “Sorry for what, Layla?”She took a deep, shaky breath, still gripping the test results. “When we were together, I was pregnant with your child, and yet I was sleeping with my

#Chapter 322: Trickster Witch

OliviaI saw Nathan open his mouth, clearly searching for the right words. Before he could speak, I touched his arm lightly, silently letting him know that I’d handle it.“Layla, let me explain.” My voice trembled, though I tried to keep it steady. “It’s about Aurora. My daughter.”Layla looked between us, her eyes narrowing. “What’s wrong? Is everything okay?”Taking a deep breath, I said, “I made a deal with a witch. For the final artifact to become the Ancient Wolf.”Her eyes widened in disbelief. “You what?”“It was a desperate time, Layla. Either let Ryan and the Redclaws annihilate our pack or become powerful enough to protect everyone.” My eyes stung as I spoke, my heart heavy with regret. “The witch let me keep Aurora until she’s three, but after that… I have to hand her over.”Layla’s face paled, but she managed a gentle hug. “Olivia, witches are tricksters. They take advantage of us at our weakest moments. I can’t even begin to imagine how difficult this choice must’ve been

#Chapter 323: Midnight Reverie

OliviaMy mind was a whirlwind of thoughts as Nathan paced the room, laying out his plans on how to deal with the witch.“Honestly, Olivia, it sounds like it should be straightforward enough,” he said, conviction filling his voice. “All we need to do is trap her in her own hut. Layla told us that a circle of salt is supposed to neutralize her magic, right? Then we set the place on fire, and it’s done. Over. Easy.”Easy.His words hung in the air like a cloud, heavy and dark. The thought of taking a life—witch or not—clawed at my conscience. Nothing about it seemed even remotely close to ‘easy’. In fact, the very thought of it made me sick.But what choice did we have? The witch held a claim over Aurora, and who knew how many more innocent lives would be tarnished if she remained a threat?“I wish it didn’t have to be this way,” I mumbled, the weight of our choices pressing down on me. “No one should have to die, you know?”Nathan paused his pacing to look at me, his eyes searching my

#Chapter 324: Right-Hand Man

NathanThe morning light was just beginning to break over the horizon, casting soft rays through the nursery window.I found myself staring at the twins as they slept. They looked so cozy and warm, swaddled in their cribs, their little chests rising and falling with each innocent breath. The urge to protect them tightened around my heart like a vice, and that was precisely why I decided to slip out early to get to work.Quietly, I backed out of the room, pulling the door shut with the gentlest click.I had to make a decision today—a dangerous, irreversible decision—and I needed to plan it out. My feet carried me out of the house and through the town, finally stopping at the Council building.As soon as I entered my office, I picked up the phone. “Levi, I need you and the others here. Urgent meeting. Ten minutes.”Levi’s voice crackled through the phone, tinged with both concern and curiosity. “Alright, Alpha. We’ll be there.”True to their word, Levi and a handful of my other trusted

#Chapter 325: A Glimmer of Hope

OliviaI was sitting up on the couch, staring at the front door, my heart pounding in my chest. The hands of the clock were merciless, ticking away the seconds that felt like hours.It was late, too late. Nathan had never given me a specific time frame as to when he would be back, but it was almost midnight—well past any reasonable hour.And all this time, I had been sitting here gnawing at my nails, a nervous habit I had relied on to calm myself ever since childhood. I really needed to stop doing it, but it was the only thing to keep myself from shaking right now.As I waited, all of the worst scenarios ran repeatedly through my head. What if the witch had somehow figured out Nathan’s plan? What if Nathan got hurt? Could the witch be coming for the twins and me next? My thoughts spiraled into dark corners I didn’t want to explore.Just as I was about to reach for my phone to call Nathan, the front door burst open. He stepped in, looking exhausted, his eyes carrying the weight of a lo

#Chapter 326: A Tense Reunion

OliviaI watched Nathan as he welcomed Cade into our home with forced politeness.“Cade, please, make yourself comfortable. Can I offer you a drink?” Nathan gestured toward our mini bar that was a part of the dining room setup.“Sure,” Cade answered, his voice lacking any real enthusiasm as he followed Nathan.Seizing the moment, I gave Layla a quick, discreet wave and tilted my head toward the living room. “Let’s talk.”Carrying her little boy in her arms, Layla followed me. Once we were safely out of earshot, I turned to her, my voice dropping to a whisper. “Is everything okay? Has Cade said anything?”Layla looked slightly distressed. “He just got here yesterday, Liv, and we’ve barely talked. He even got his own hotel room and said that he won’t stay with me until he figures all this out. To be honest, I’m really nervous about how this whole thing will unfold.”My gut tightened with concern for her. I already felt bad enough that she was taking care of her son by herself, but the f

#Chapter 327: Love’s Persistence

OliviaThe tension in the room was so thick, you could cut it with a knife. Cade’s arms were wrapped tightly around Layla, but even from where I stood, I could see her body stiffening in his embrace.“Layla, are you alright?” he asked, his voice a mixture of genuine concern and defensiveness.“Do I look alright to you?” Layla finally snapped, shoving his arms away. “You’ve been distant, refusing to even help me with our—no, my son. I feel so alone.”I glanced at Nathan, whose eyes were narrowed. He was clearly upset but holding it in, like a simmering pot on the verge of boiling over.“You feel alone?” Cade retorted, his voice rising. “How do you think I felt finding out that the child I thought was mine is actually Nathan’s? It feels like you lied to me.”“Lied to you?” Layla scoffed, wiping her tears away angrily. “That’s ridiculous, Cade. I told you everything as soon as I found out. This is a timing issue, nothing more. Why can’t you see that?”Before Cade could come up with anoth

#Chapter 328: Visitor in the Dark

OliviaEverything was dark, so dark that I couldn't see an inch in front of me. My mouth snapped shut just as I was about to tell Nathan that I loved him, leaving me shocked and confused.“Whoa, what happened?” I blurted out, swiveling my head around.For some reason, I found myself gripping the amulet that Layla had given me.Maybe it was because the room was suddenly so quiet that I could hear my own heartbeat, or maybe it was because the room instantly felt several degrees colder, as if an icy wind had just blown its way through, despite the fact that the doors and windows were closed and that it was only mid-September.Nathan chuckled nervously through the darkness, pulling away from our embrace. “Looks like the power went out. Just stay here, Olivia. I’ll check the fuse box in the basement.”But something didn’t feel right. A tingling sensation was emanating from the amulet in my palm, stronger than before, a feeling that had me on high alert. Instinctively, I reached out, grabbi

#Chapter 329: The Witch’s Gift

OliviaI felt like I was going insane.After throwing up that... stuff, that black ink-like substance, my entire body felt like a live wire. Every cell screamed that something was wrong, but I had no clue what. It wasn’t just me, though. Even my wolf, usually a reassuring presence, felt sick and disoriented.“Nathan, I don’t know what's going on. What did she do to me?”Nathan ran a hand through his hair, clearly frazzled. “Olivia, we need to get you to the hospital. This isn’t normal.”I shook my head, already knowing what that route would entail.“And tell them what? That I threw up black gunk after a witch visited my house? They won’t be able to find anything wrong with me. It’s got to be some hex or something. Medical tests aren’t going to show that. She’ll definitely make sure of it.”He sighed, visibly frustrated but knowing I had a point. “So, what, we just sit around and wait for something to happen?”“I don’t know, Nathan. I don't know, okay? But right now, I’m not getting an

#Chapter 330: Blessing in Disguise

OliviaFor days on end, I had been waking up with this nauseous, flip-flopping feeling in my stomach.It was like riding a roller coaster on an empty stomach, but without the thrill. I found myself rushing to the bathroom every morning for four days straight, thinking maybe I had been hexed by the witch after all.But it wasn’t black stuff coming up anymore, and the amulet had been silent for days. It was all really weird.“Girl, you’ve been hugging the toilet bowl more than your man lately,” Angela said, stirring her coffee as we sat in my kitchen. She was in her nurse’s scrubs, visiting on her lunch break.The twins were blissfully napping in the next room, giving us a rare moment of quiet. Nathan was away at the Council building on Alpha duties, and had been mostly oblivious to my nausea spells because I had decided to keep it to myself for the time being, hoping that it would pass.I laughed, trying to shake off my friend’s accurate but also unsettling observation. “Don’t even jok
