Goodbye Snowfall RHEA’S POV “Look who we have here,” Luna Lisa exclaimed, her eyes lighting up the moment she saw me. She rose gracefully from her seat and enveloped me in a warm hug. Despite my inner turmoil, I managed to plaster a smile on my face as she pulled me into her embrace. “How are you, dear?” she asked, leading me toward the cabana where she and Alpha Dennis were seated, about to have breakfast. “Oh, I’m good,” I said, trying to inject some cheer into my voice. “Pa Dennis, good morning.” Luna Lisa pulled out a chair for me to sit on, though I couldn’t help but wonder why she seemed so elated. I was here to share difficult news, and her happiness felt misplaced. Alpha Dennis smiled kindly, nodding his acknowledgment. “How are you, my good nurse?” His familiar nickname for me tugged at my heart, threatening to break the barrier holding back my tears. I forced another smile, one that wavered slightly. “I’m doing well. I hope you’ve been taking your medications,

AwakeFLASHBACK CONTINUES... ROXY’S POV “Follow that SUV,” I instructed, pointing at Miles’ car as it reversed out of the parking lot. I slid into the backseat, and my fingers gripped the edge of the door. “But don’t let him notice. Stay far enough behind.” The driver glanced at me in the rearview mirror and nodded. “Yes, ma’am,” he said, starting the engine. Not that Miles would notice anyway. He was too distracted. His frantic reaction to Rhea’s phone call made my stomach churn. Why was he so upset? He should be relieved. This was good news! Fate had done us a favor. Within minutes, we were trailing him down the interstate. The glow of his taillights remained steady in the distance as he sped along. My heart was beating with triumph. Finally, Rhea was out of the way. Now it’s just you and me, Miles. But then it happened. As we approached an intersection, a truck skidded onto the road, barreling toward Miles’ SUV. Time seemed to freeze as the truck slammed into his car with

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 everything, her plans, her interview to stay with me at the hospital. I knew my father well enough to predict his reaction if she had reached out during my accident. He would have found a way to pin the blame on her, like he always did. Roxy and I had waited for Holmes to come take us back to Snowfall. By the time Holmes got to the hospital and dropped Roxy at her hotel in Snowfall, it was evening, and I was exhausted. But not exhausted enough to notice Rhea had not even reached out to me. Knowing her, she would have insisted on coming to the hospital with Evans, even if she were on her deathbed. I had called her repeatedly since this morning, but her line wasn’t connecting. My messages,

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 buzz itself into silence. I wasn’t ready to deal with her at the moment. Closing my laptop with a frustrated snap, I leaned back in my chair and stared at the ceiling. The footage from the day of my accident was still fresh in my mind. I wasn’t convinced it was just an accident. A car had been following mine; I was sure of it. I had used my influence to get that footage from the CCTV cameras and had it delivered to me. The truck that hit me hadn’t just appeared out of nowhere; it had been waiting patiently and deliberately rammed into my car. Now, I am convinced this wasn’t just an accident. Someone wanted me dead. The thought sent a shiver through me. It was even more complicated because

CONFRONTATIONMILES’ POV “ Any luck yet?” Rico’s voice broke the silence as he strode into my office.I dragged my tired eyes up to meet his, the exhaustion clear in my expression, and then returned to the glowing screen of my computer. Rico didn’t need a verbal response. He sighed and dropped into the chair across from me, leaning back like he had all the time in the world. “You look like shit, man,” he said, concern softening his usually sarcastic tone. “What’s really going on? Does this, by any chance, have to do with Rhea’s disappearance?”My fingers hovered over the keyboard as I stayed silent, unsure of what to say. I had no witty comeback, no sharp retort. Rico was right, and he knew it. “You wanted this, Miles,” he continued after a moment. “You were so sure this was what you needed.” “I know what I said,” I snapped, rubbing my temples in frustration. My voice softened as the anger ebbed into something more vulnerable. “I just… I just…” “You feel guilt
