Chapter 439:
She wasn’t just visiting. She was securing a DNA sample.
My loyal Gamma Inner Wolf let out a deafening, terrified howl in my skull. If that sample reached a lab, the results wouldn’t just end Grant Blackwell’s political career — it would expose a devastating bloodline secret the Blackstone Pack had buried for seven years. It was the kind of explosive treason that would bring the merciless executioners of the Continental Pack Council directly to our doorstep.
I didn’t waste a single second. I closed my eyes and slammed my consciousness into the encrypted Pack Mind-Link, reaching directly for my Alpha.
“Alpha,” I transmitted, my mental voice tight with absolute urgency. “We have a catastrophic breach. Carmella Golden stole a DNA sample from Jaxon. She’s going to run a maternity test. Give me the order, and I will deploy the Shadow Network to intercept and incinerate the package before it ever leaves the country p>
Grant Blackwell POV
The sprawling view of the Washington Monument from my Capitol Hill office was bleak and grey, but inside, the air was thick with the heavy, commanding weight of my own rosemary and rain scent.
I stood behind my massive mahogany desk, staring out the bulletproof glass, when Leo’s panicked Mind-Link crashed into my skull. I felt his Gamma Inner Wolf trembling with sheer terror at the mention of the Continental Pack Council. He was waiting for me to unleash hell to protect my secret.

Instead, a low, dark chuckle vibrated deep in my chest.
My Lycan Inner Wolf didn’t panic. He rose to his full, terrifying height within my mind, letting out a deafening, earth-shattering roar of absolute, twisted triumph. The hunt was finally over.
“Stand down, Leo,” I commanded through the link, my mental voice a smooth, freezing rumble of absolute authority.
I could feel my Gamma’s profound shock echoing back. “Alpha? If she sees those results p>
“I want her to see them,” I interrupted, a dark, predatory smile curving my lips. I pictured Carmella — my beautiful, broken Mate — desperately trying to outsmart a monster who had already mapped her every move. “A cornered animal will fight, Leo. But a mother who rediscovers her lost pup… she will do anything to get close to him. She will walk into any cage, as long as he is inside p>
A heavy, terrified silence fell over the Mind-Link. Leo was a hardened warrior, but the sheer, calculating cruelty of my psychological manipulation left him completely awestruck.
“Withdraw all surveillance on that package,” I ordered, sealing the trap. “Ensure it arrives in Geneva safely and on time. I want her to read that 99.99% match. I want the reality of her son to completely shatter whatever fragile independence she has left p>
“Yes, Alpha,” Leo replied, his mental voice dropping to a whisper of absolute, fearful submission.
