He looked tired, but his expression was serious. Liam sat up straight, knowing that whatever Logan had to say was important."Liam, I need to speak with you," Logan said, closing the door behind him."Of course, Logan. What is it?" Liam asked.Logan walked over to the fire and stood in front of it, his hands extended towards the warmth. "I met someone today while I was out on patrol. A girl. She claimed to have been sent by Penelope with a message for the Alpha."Liam raised an eyebrow. "A message from Penelope? And what was the message?"Logan shook his head. "She wouldn't say. She had it written on a piece of paper, but she was unwilling to show it to me."Liam frow

Liam stood by the window, staring out into the sprawling grounds of the Packhouse. The morning sun had yet to rise, but the sky was already beginning to lighten. As he gazed out into the distance, he saw his father emerge from the dining room, accompanied by the Alpha.The Alpha was clad in a smart, tailored suit, with a crisp white shirt and a black tie. The suit was made from fine wool and cut to fit his broad frame perfectly, accenting his powerful build. He was the epitome of casual yet powerful, exuding an aura of confidence and authority with every step he took. Liam's anger boiled within him as he saw the Alpha.

Penelope was sitting on the edge of the bathtub, staring blankly at the wall in front of her, clearly unaware of the bustling around her. Something inside her died the moment her father suggested they visit the Pack doctor. Somehow she knew what was coming for her but she didn't wish for it. Every moment she prayed that she was wrong and that prospect would paint pretty pictures. He had only said that they were going to confirm if she was really pregnant or if they were just assuming things. But there was something more to it. And she saw that thing the moment her father had proposed the idea that they went to know what was really wrong with her. The cruel smirk that graced his face at that moment was permanently etched on her mind. He looked that way the moment he had some evil plan he wanted to execute. The maids kept filling the tub with warm water and adding fragrant oils to it. Despite the activity, Penelope felt usually alone and isolated, lost in her own thoughts.The door t

Her father and the doctor stood facing each other, with a table between them. Uther towered above him, sizing him up like they were about to exchange blows. Her father's expression was tense and his eyes were intently fixed on the doctor's."Doctor, we are here to confirm if my daughter, Penelope, is indeed pregnant."The doctor's face lit up when her father said the word, only if he knew the circumstances surrounding this.The doctor set out to work immediately, he started the examination by first asking Penelope to lie down on the examination table. He then gently placed a hand on her stomach and began to feel for any signs of a baby growing inside her. He used a stethoscope to listen to her stomach and heart, searching for any sounds that could indicate the presence of a fetus. He also performed a pelvic examination, checking for any changes in her cervix or uterus that would confirm the pregnancy.As the examination continued, the doctor carefully explained each step to Penelope

A STING.Penelope stood her ground, tears streaming down her face as her father towered over her, anger etched on his face. "I won't do it," she said firmly, despite her fear.Uther's eyes flashed with fury. "You will do as I say, Penelope. You are a woman, you have no say in this matter," he growls, his voice low and menacing."You will abort this child, or you will be disowned. Do you understand me? You will no longer be my daughter, you will no longer have my name or my support." Uther's words were like a physical blow, and Penelope flinched at the impact."You have twelve hours to change your mind, or the consequences will be dire. And as for you, Yvonne," he turned to Penelope's mother, "You had better talk some sense into your daughter, or you will face the consequences too."With that, Uther stormed out of the infirmary, leaving Penelope and Yvonne in stunned silence. Penelope was shaking, her thoughts a jumbled mess. How could her father be so cruel, so heartless?Yvonne appro

The snow fell softly, painting the world in a blanket of white, but it did nothing to warm the hearts of the brave few who braved the elements. Their breaths came out in plumes of mist, rising like ghosts into the frozen air, as they huddled deeper into their heavy coats, searching for any shred of comfort. The buildings loomed around them, ominous and unyielding as if daring them to survive this torment. But the cold, relentless, and unyielding, pressed in on all sides, threatening to crush them and snuff out their lives.
