“Could it be…” Wemble muttered under his breath, his mind racing through every piece of information he had gathered on Aubrey. Before taking on a patient, he always tried to understand their background as thoroughly as possible.
And every clue pointed to one fact: Aubrey was no ordinary omega.
Whether it was her calm decisiveness when she cracked the T Flu virus back in the Ste Pack, her quick–witted resilience when she escaped Ulrich, or even just the sharp presence she had exuded moments ago–all of it led to a staggering conclusion. Aubrey was very likely concealing her true rank.
He wasn’t sure if Alpha Henry had the same suspicion. Logically, he should–after all, Henry had spent far more time with her than he had.
But Henry had never mentioned it. Perhaps it was an unspoken secret between the two of them?
With that thought, Wemble suddenly understood why Henry was so consumed by her. Aubrey was too extraordinary, drawing people in,pelling them to probe deeper. And the more one tried to unravel her, the stronger the desire to im her became.
Not long after, Aubrey ran into Alpha Henry.
They both stopped about twenty feet apart, locked in a wordless stare.
In the end, Aubrey was the one to look away first. She walked forward as if she hadn’t seen him at all. As they passed, Henry spoke in a low voice. “Bailey’s been taken away by Fog Pack.”
Aubrey’s steps faltered, but she only gave a clipped reply. “Alright.” She had long known Bailey -or rather, Bailey Wheeler–couldn’t be kept. For now, with both her and Alpha Henry infected by the Kajit virus, it wasn’t the time to confront Fog Pack head–on.
She would wait. Once the Kajit virus was cured, nothing would be able to stand in her way.
She didn’t linger, heading straight for theb.
Henry watched her back, words caught in his throat. His alpha pride and dignity made it impossible to lower himself again after being turned away so many times.
What more did she want from him? Hadn’t he done enough?
From then on, Aubrey never left the virusb, eating and sleeping inside.

She knew that every night after she fell asleep, Alpha Henry would shift into his wolf form and lie quietly on the floor by her bed, keeping vigil until dawn, when he slipped away. But she never exposed him.
Why, she wasn’t sure. Maybe she simply didn’t know how to face it.
Because of Aubrey’s total devotion, the Kajit virus antidote experiments advanced rapidly. John, meanwhile, was buried under nonstop assignments, working himself into exhaustion in his ownb, too busy to even think of appearances.
Justin came by the Miguel family once to invite Aubrey out, but Henry drove him away.
Charles also visited, but when he heard Aubrey was tied up, he never came back.
That day, the live Kajit virus trials were temporarily concluded. Aubrey staggered out of theb, every muscle in her body aching as if it had been torn apart. Worse still, a tide of negative emotions flooded her–hatred for Bailey and Aurelia, resentment toward Jax, and that tangled love and hate for Alpha Henry.
The further the experiments went, the harsher their toll became. Each live trial was like tearing open old wounds all over again.
The pain she had endured before returned in waves, dragging her back into the past. Again and again, she brushed the edge of death, teetering on the brink of copse.
Each time, Aubrey could only repeat to herself that it was over–that it was the past–to hold onto her sanity in the present.
