I had learned the shape of the days by their silence.

They kept me still, not chained, not bruised, but carefully contained. The room was large and clean, with windows that showed a slice of sky I could never reach. My body felt heavier than it should have, like it was working through something it hadn’t agreed to. I wasn’t surprised anymore. Anger had burned through shock and settled into something sharper.

The doctor came when Mara sent for him. He checked my vitals, listened, asked questions he already knew the answers to.

“You need to rest,” he said one morning, his voice careful. “Your body is under strain.”

“I’m resting,” I replied. “That’s all I do.”

He didn’t smile. “Not just physically.”

I knew what he meant. My wolf stirred in me, restless but weak, like she was pacing in a narrow room. She wasn’t sick in the usual way. She was stretched thin.

“How long?” I asked.

He hesitated. “The pregnancy is progressing faster than expected.”

I closed my eyes. Faster. Of course it was. Nothing about my life ever moved at a normal pace.

He left after that, and I stayed where I was, sitting on the floor with my back against the wall. I breathed the way I’d been taught years ago, slow and steady, the kind of meditation that keeps panic from breaking loose. It was the only control I had left, so I used it.

That was when the Southern Alpha came in.

I felt him before I saw him. His presence pressed against the room, heavy and deliberate. I didn’t stand. I didn’t bow. I stayed where I was, breathing in and out like I had been.

“You look stronger today,” he said.

I opened my eyes. “You didn’t come here to check my health.”

He nodded once, like he appreciated honesty. “No.”

He moved closer, stopping just short of my space. “Information has reached Daniel”

My breath caught, but I didn’t let it show. “What information?”

He watched me closely. “That you’re pregnant.”

Anger rose so fast it felt like my chest might split. “You had no right.”

“I didn’t send it,” he said. “But I knew it would reach him eventually.”

“That doesn’t make it better,” I snapped. “He’ll be tearing himself apart right now.”

“He already is,” the Alpha said calmly. “That was happening before this.”

I pushed myself to my feet. My legs trembled, but I stayed upright. “You’re doing this to him. You’re trying to break him.”

His expression didn’t change. “I’m trying to correct an imbalance.”

I laughed, sharp and bitter. “You always dress it up nicely.”

He exhaled slowly. “You attempted an ectopic disruption before.”

My blood went cold. “You had no right to know that either.”

“I know more than you think,” he said. “And you should know better than to try something like that again. It would kill you.”

I stepped closer, ignoring the way my body protested. “You don’t get to pretend you care about my life.”

“I care about control,” he replied. “And keeping you alive serves.that.”

“At least you’re honest.”

He met my gaze. “I am not mistreating you, Amy. You’re fed. You’re monitored. You’re safe.”

“I’m imprisoned.”

“Temporarily.”

“For how long?”

“For as long as this takes.”

“And what exactly is this?” I demanded. “Destroying my husband?”

right away. When he did, his voice was quieter. “Reshaping the board”

I shook my head. “You won’t win. Daniel won’t break the way you want him to.”

His lips curved slightly. “Everyone breaks. The question is what they become after”

I felt my wolf stir again, weak but defiant. “I won’t help you

“I don’t need your help,” he said. “I need your compliance”

“And if I refuse?”

He stepped back. “Then things become harder. For everyone.”

Silence stretched between us. I thought of Daniel, pacing, searching, blaming himself. I thought of the

children growing inside me, moving forward without waiting for permission.

“You leaked this to hurt him,” I said.

“I allowed it to surface,” he corrected. “There’s a difference.”

“There isn’t.”

He turned toward the door. “Stay where you are. Let the doctor do his work. Don’t try to outthink your body again.”

“And when you’re done?” I asked.

He paused. “Then we’ll see what remains.”

He left without another word.

I sank back down slowly, my hands pressed to my stomach. My breathing came uneven now, anger and fear tangled together. The pregnancy felt like a storm moving too fast to outrun, too big to ignore. I wasn’t surprised. I wasn’t confused. I was furious.

He thought keeping me contained would keep me quiet.

He was wrong.

Daniel would find me. I didn’t know how, or when, but I knew him. And when that happened, everything the Southern Alpha was building would start to crack.

Until then, I stayed alive. I stayed aware. I stayed angry.

And I waited.

I had heard the name long before I ever saw the inside of one of their facilities.

Nomara Mara Foundation. It sounded harmless. Charitable. The kind of organization people praised at galas and quoted in speeches. They funded hospitals, sponsored research, and handled cases most institutions didn’t want attached to their names. Publicly, they were about health, recovery, and long–term care. Privately, they controlled far more than people realized.

The first time the doctor mentioned them, I was sitting upright in bed, my hands resting on my stomach

“We’ll be transferring part of your care under Nomara Mara Foundation oversight,” he said, flipping through his tablet. “They specialize in complicated cases.”

I looked at him. “This isn’t a hospital”

“No,” he agreed. “But they operate like one. Better funded. Fewer questions”

That was when I understood. This wasn’t about kindness. It was about control

The Foundation didn’t just treat patients. They managed them. They handled people whose health conditions came with political weight, pack implications, or long–term consequences. Wolves with unstable shifts. Alphas with genetic risks.
