Ran Away Pregnant Came Back Alpha Heiress (Amelia and Damien) novel Chapter 110

**TITLE: Night Whispers Forgotten Names – Colin Shah 110**

**CONTENT: Chapter 110**

**Damien’s POV**

As much as I longed to remain at the hospital, ever vigilant for any sign of change regarding Ethan, the relentless rhythm of pack life demanded my attention. An Alpha was not merely a title; it was a role that required my presence at the headquarters, where disputes needed resolution and various issues awaited my intervention.

Ethan had been the backbone of this operation, deftly managing matters that I had taken for granted until his absence became painfully evident. The weight of responsibility settled heavily on my shoulders, stretching my days into endless hours. I had arrived at the office before the first light of dawn, but the tasks ahead loomed so large that it was clear I would be here long after the sun dipped below the horizon.

Perhaps it was for the best, I mused, as I buried myself in work. Staying busy kept my mind from spiraling back to Amelia and the sharp ache of her most recent rejection. No matter how hard I tried, I seemed to be perpetually falling short in her eyes, and each failed attempt to reach her only deepened the darkness that was creeping into my soul, entwining with my wolf’s own despair.

Her words from our last encounter echoed in my mind, striking me with a finality that was hard to bear.

No, it couldn’t be the end. I had to find a way to win her back. I had to believe that there was a path forward.

Somehow.

Frustration bubbled within me, and I cursed softly under my breath, realizing I had allowed my thoughts to drift once more. I forced myself to refocus, gripping my pen tightly as I tried to channel my energy into the paperwork before me.

But just as I had begun to write, my office door swung open, and Claire stepped inside without so much as a knock.

My gaze snapped to her, irritation flaring.

“Seriously?” I shot back, my tone sharper than I intended.

At my accusatory look, Claire merely shrugged, a hint of annoyance in her eyes. “I’ve been knocking for two minutes. I was worried something might have happened.”

Oh, I thought, realizing how lost I had been in my own thoughts that I hadn’t even registered her presence.

“I’m fine,” I replied, trying to sound more composed than I felt. “Just… working.” I lowered my eyes back to my desk, hoping she would take the hint.
