Chapter 97: Elara's POV

"You came back," Marcus says when I walk through the clinic door.

"Landon needs lunch money," I say. "Which requires me to have a job."

He hands me a coffee without being asked. "How are you?"

"Functional." I take the coffee. "That's the goal today. Functional."

He nods. He knows when not to push. I've always appreciated that about him. "Room one is waiting," he says. "Sprained ankle. Easy start."

"Good." I go to room one.

  • Pregnant After My Triplets Mate Rejected Me   Chapter 98: The pain I carry, no one can understand

    Chapter 98: Ronan's POV "Ronan, darling, come sit with us."Vivian's hand lands on my arm before I've fully entered the estate dining room. Her voice carries intentionally, the way everything about her lately is deliberate and three heads turn to look at us across the table."Vivian." I don't sit. "I'm not staying long.""Of course you are." She smiles at the room, steering me toward the empty chair beside hers like I haven't spoken. "We have so much to plan."An older woman at the far end an aunt, maybe, I've stopped trying to track the Kane family tree — leans forward. "Vivian tells us the ceremony might be spring. Is that right, Ronan?""Nothing's decided," I say."He's being modest." Vivian's hand finds my arm again. "We've talked about spring. Haven't we?""We talked about the document. That's all that's been signed.""Details." She waves it off, laughing lightly for the table's benefit, and the aunt laughs along with her like they've agreed on something.I let her lead me to a

I go to room one.********The morning moves the way mornings do when you've decided to function,one patient and then the next, the work filling the space that thinking would otherwise occupy. I'm good at this. Six years of doing it alone taught me that the body keeps going when the mind needs time, and the body's rhythm is its own kind of mercy.At lunch I sit on the bench outside the clinic with my sandwich and my face tipped up to the pale winter sun and I hear footsteps and I already know before I look.Rafe sits down. Not at the far end — one space over.

  • Pregnant After My Triplets Mate Rejected Me   Chapter 95: Elara's POV

    "Elara."Marcus gently steers me into the narrow supply alcove, away from the corridor where nurses move between patients and conversations travel faster than people. The door swings shut behind us, muting the noise outside."I need to tell you something before you hear it somewhere else."One look at his face and I already know."Ronan.""Yes." He holds my gaze without looking away. "The engagement commitment went through the pack administrative office this morning. It's on record. Confirmed. Circulating." He hesitates for the smallest moment. "It's real this time. Not a rumor."The words don't hit like a punch.They settle.Heavy.Final.I lower myself onto a supply crate because suddenly my knees don't seem interested in holding me up.Marcus crouches until we're eye level. He doesn't touch me. Doesn't offer empty reassurances. He simply stays there, giving me room to breathe.It's the kindest thing anyone's done for me all day."How long has it been circulating?""Since this morni

  • Pregnant After My Triplets Mate Rejected Me   Chapter 96: Rafe's Pov

    She doesn't come to the door. I didn't expect her to.Mira's light is still on. It always is at ten..... she's the only one in this whole situation who'll give me the full picture instead of the version she thinks I need.I knock twice, quiet. Mira opens the door, reads my face for a second, and steps back to let me in.The cottage is quiet. Landon's asleep. Elara's upstairs..... awake, not coming down. I can feel that much through the bond.Mira puts the kettle on without asking. We sit at the table until the tea's poured, and then she says, "Tell me."So I do. Kyle's arrival. The ultimatum. What Ronan decided, and why. The protection clause. The rooftop conversation. Ryker finding out from Elias. The confrontation after.She listens with both hands around her cup, not interrupting once.When I finish, she says, "He's not wrong that the guarantee matters.""No," I agree. "He's not.""And he's not wrong Father's recall would've left them exposed.""No.""And he's completely wrong to h

  • Pregnant After My Triplets Mate Rejected Me   Chapter 94: Ryker's POV

    "Alpha Ryker." Elias stops in my doorway, and I know before he says another word that I'm not going to like this. "There's something you need to know.""Say it.""Ronan went to the Kane estate. Met with Victor directly. There's a preliminary commitment document...signed.""Signed when.""Six hours ago."I don't say anything for a second. "Give me the room, Elias."He goes.I find Ronan in his room. He looks up when I open the door, and he doesn't look surprised which tells me everything. He's been sitting here since he got back, waiting for this exact conversation."Six hours," I say."I was going to tell you tonight.""Tonight." I step inside, shut the door. "You signed a legal document committing yourself to marry Vivian Kane, without telling me or Rafe, and your plan was to mention it *tonight*?""The protection clause for Elara and Landon is ironclad. The document's preliminary. Victor needs optics more than substance." He holds my gaze. "I made a call.""You made a call." I move

    I go to Victor Kane at noon.Not because I've run out of options — Rafe gave me four options last night and Ryker would have given me six if I'd told him what Father said, which I haven't yet, because telling Ryker first means Ryker takes over and this specific thing I need to do myself.I go because I have thought about it since two in the morning on a rooftop and through breakfast and through the hour I spent sitting in the hotel lobby watching Silverveil go about its day, and I have arrived at the same place each time.Father is right that the guarantee matters.Not the marriage. The guarantee. Elara and Landon, protected, regardless of what happens with the alliance and the Council and Kyle Blackthorn's ultimatum. If I can get that guarantee locked into a formal commitment document before anything else changes — before Father's week is up, before Victor finds a new angle, before Vivian does something else desperate — then the rest is manageable. Then the rest is just legal and pol

  • Pregnant After My Triplets Mate Rejected Me   CHAPTER 6: We need to talk.

    Chapter 6“Mom, I don’t want to go back if they’re just going to make me say sorry for something I didn’t start.”Landon’s voice was small but edged with frustration as I helped him into his school uniform. My fingers paused on the buttons of his shirt, the bruise on his cheek still faintly visible

    Chapter 5Ryker’s POV The scent of her still clung to the inside of my nose like smoke after a wildfire—sweet wild honey, soft vanilla, and that faint trace of defiance that had always driven me insane. Six years, and one accidental collision in a school hallway had ripped open every scar I’d trie

  • Pregnant After My Triplets Mate Rejected Me   Chapter 4: It can't be

    Chapter 4“Mom, please… just keep walking.”My voice came out as a broken whisper, barely audible even to my own ears. Landon’s small hand felt impossibly fragile in mine, his fingers sticky from the dried blood on his knuckles. I kept my eyes fixed straight ahead, refusing to meet any of their gaz

  • Pregnant After My Triplets Mate Rejected Me   Chapter 3: They are back?

    Chapter 3“Take it back!” Landon’s furious shout cracked through the air the second I stepped into the principal’s office. My son stood rigid in the center of the room, small fists clenched at his sides, blood smeared across his knuckles and a fresh bruise blooming on his cheekbone. Opposite him,
