Third–Person POV:

Julian was the Alpha of the Graves Pack. That was the original sin at the core of them being together.

As long as she stayed with him, she would never become a mother in this lifetime. Even if only for the chance to have pups of her own someday, she had to break this mate bond.

Hearing the bitterness creeping into her voice, Julian felt a weight settle in his chest.

Just have some soup first, okay?”

He shouldn’t have brought up pups at all. He knew she couldn’t handle any mention of them right now, and yet he’d gone and done it anyway.

“hat was just how he was–when he wanted something, he plowed ahead without thinking.

illian said, “Tell the kitchen to make me something normal. Or just bring me a bowl of oatmeal.”

f she had to eat, she wanted regular food. This soup… who knew what they’d put in it this time? Would it make her hemorrhage gain?

She turned over, facing away from him.

Julian sat there on the edge of the bed, bowl still in hand, frozen. Something hollow opened up in his chest.

“hat look she’d given him at the end…

Vas that distrust? Toward him?

All because of that bowl of soup.

He’d come back and personally told the kitchen what to make. Watched them add every ingredient. He’d been so careful, so errified of another mistake like yesterday landing her back in the hospital.

When she didn’t hear him move, Lillian spat out three cold words. “Get out.”

Julian went still.

der temper was really something now.

‘I was careless yesterday. I’m sorry. From now on, I’ll be more careful about what you eat.”

Lillian’s response was instant. “Don’t.

“I’m begging you. Don’t do anything for me.”

If he did something for her, those people in the Graves Pack would lose their minds again. His good intentions might backfire- maybe not just land her in the hospital next time. Maybe kill her.

Even if she survived, she didn’t want Julian putting in any effort on her behalf.

Julian watched her, tried a different approach, offered something else–but Litliar’s distrust was ablete. Frustrated, be lifted the bowl and drained it in one go.

“There. I drank it myself. Let’s see if it lands me in the hospital”

Lillian didn’t turn around. “Psycho.”

Julian set the bowl down but still didn’t leave.

He looked at her back, hesitated, then asked, “The ‘brother you mentioned earlier. Who is that?

When he’d pushed the door open, he’d caught those words.

Brother.

She was an Omega who’d grown up in the orphanage. What brother could she possibly have?

The question made Lillian’s breath catch–just for a second, barely noticeable. Then she was fine.

“What brother? You think I’m like Iris, with some powerful pack behind me?”

Julian said nothing.

Lillian’s voice turned sharp. “Sorry to disappoint. I don’t have that. So the Graves Pack really got the short end of the stick, marrying a Luna like me.”

The sarcasm, the bite in her words–it grated against him, set his teeth on edge.

He looked at her back, lips parting as if to speak, but his phone rang.

Julian glanced at the number. Hung up.

He looked at Lillian one more time, then stood. “Rest. The kitchen will bring your food up when it’s ready.”

Right now, he was trying. Trying to accommodate her, to bend. Even his old rule about no eating in the bedroom–he was letting that go.

He walked out.

At the door, his phone Yang again. This time he answered. “What is it now?”

That impatient tone, the way he said “now“-she didn’t need to guess. It was probably Iris from the hospital. Or the pup she’d given birth to.

Lillian picked up her phone and dialed George.

He answered immediately, “Miss?”

“The pup Iris had. Is there really something wrong with it?”

George said, “One of them has a severe heart condition. The pup’s in critical care. Needs resuscitation constantly.”

Lillian went quiet.

A pup that small. Needing constant resuscitation.

George continued, “Alpha Julian sent people to the Western Continent. They’re looking for Professor Gareth.”

Lillian’s eyes sharpened. “Him?”

James Gareth. She knew that name.

The top cardiology professor in the werewolf world. Any heart condition, no matter how complex–if someone had one foot in the grave, he could pull them back. He was based on the Western Continent. Everyone there called him the man who wrestled Death for lives.

Countless wealthy packs, heart problems or not, thought of him first. Even though the old professor specialized in cardiac injuries…

The breakthroughs her biotech company had made? Largely thanks to guidance from that same professor, a year ago.

He was notoriously hard to get.

Bad temper, and at his age–ready to retire, settled into his twilight years–he hated being disturbed even more. George said, “Yes. Alpha Julian already has people on the Western Continent. So the pup’s illness is real.”

ris‘ emotional issues were fake. But the pup she’d given birth to? That was real.

George added, “Alpha Langley already reached out to Mr. Gareth. He arranged-”

‘Don’t,” Lillian cut him off.

Even if it was Iris‘ pup… it was still just a pup.
