(Lena POV)

I woke up reaching for the other side of the bed before I was fully conscious and found the sheets cold and flat under my palm.

I lay there for a moment with my hand on the empty side and looked at the ceiling. The fire had died down overnight and the room was cooler than it had been, the pale grey of early morning coming through the gap in the curtains. No sound from the main room. No footsteps, no chair scraping, no sound of the decanter being moved on the side table the way it was

  • The Alpha Rejected His Bride For Me   Chapter 177: Returning Home

    (Kai POV)Diane came to find me in the corridor outside the medical wing at half past eight in the morning.The corridor was quiet except for the distant footsteps of nurses beginning another day.Morning light filtered through the tall windows at the end of the hall, washing the stone floor in pale gold that did nothing to warm the emptiness settling inside my chest.I had been there since six, sitting in the chair I had dragged from the waiting area to the wall outside the room, and when she came through the door she looked at the chair and then at me and said, "You slept in the corridor."The stiffness in my neck answered before I did.Every muscle protested the hours spent sitting upright, but I ba

  • The Alpha Rejected His Bride For Me   Chapter 176: The Cover-Up

    (Curtis POV)Bea arrived twenty minutes after Jake went to get her.The moment the front door opened, the tension in the kitchen shifted.No one spoke.Everyone simply made room for the only person in the house who could deal with Danny's arm.She came through the door with her kit and looked at Danny's arm and looked at me and said, "What happened," and I said, "Accident in the northern borderland, he needs the arm set," and she looked at me for a moment and then looked at Danny and said, "I will need the table," and we cleared the end of it and she worked while the rest of us moved to the counter and the bench and gave her the space she needed.She didn't question the explanation.

  • The Alpha Rejected His Bride For Me   Chapter 175: Disbelief

    (Curtis POV)Theo sat down at the far end of the table and I looked at him once and then looked at Danny and said, "Tell it again. From the beginning. All of it."Nobody argued.The room had reached that strange place where disbelief stopped sounding loud and settled into something heavier, something that made everyone instinctively cling to the smallest details because they were all that separated truth from nightmare.Danny looked at Theo and then at me and he told it again, slower this time because Bea had not arrived yet and his arm was not going anywhere and I needed him to go through it properly while the details were still in the order they had happened rather than the order his exhausted mind would start rearranging them in once the arm was seen to and the body started shutting things

  • The Alpha Rejected His Bride For Me   Chapter 174: The Survivor Returns

    (Curtis POV)I was at the table with the ledger when the door came open.Not knocked, not the two taps that everyone who came to this house used, just opened, and I was on my feet before I had processed why because a door that opened without knocking in the Lowlands at this hour was either someone very familiar or someone very wrong, and Danny Reeves was neither of those things, he was supposed to be in the northern borderland for another week at minimum, and he was standing in my doorway with his left arm held against his chest and his jacket torn at the shoulder and his face the color of old plaster.Jake was up from the counter in the same second."Danny," I said.He came through the door and his right hand was gripping something, a cloth bag,

  • The Alpha Rejected His Bride For Me   Chapter 173: Breaking Down

    (Theo POV)I sat in the back room for a long time.She had been carrying a child.She had been carrying it when she was in my house and when she stood in the staircase and when she was against the wall in the corridor with my hand on her wrist, and she had just told me, had finally said it out loud in the corridor after all the weeks of carrying it alone, and then my weight had shifted and she had stepped back and the staircase had been there.The child that was the reason she told Kai the Varden timeline. The child that was the reason she walked down the hill to Mira's kitchen in the rain. The child that was the reason she stood in the corridor and finally said it out loud after weeks of holding it, and then she had stepped back and there was nothing behind her foot.

  • The Alpha Rejected His Bride For Me   Chapter 172: The News Spreads

    (Theo POV)The market was open.It ran on Tuesday and Friday mornings on the main square, eight or ten stalls depending on the season, and this was a Tuesday, and the stalls were up and the square was busy in the way it was busy at mid-morning when the early shoppers had been replaced by the mid-morning ones and the conversations had had time to find their subjects.I went to the market because I needed bread and because it was on the way back and because going around it would have required an explanation to myself that I did not have the energy to construct.I went to Bea's stall first because Bea's was at the near end and had the bread I needed, the dark loaf that Curtis preferred, and Bea was behind the stall with her arms crossed and her grey hair under the cloth she wore for market days,
