Hiding My Twin Pups From their Alpha Dad novel Chapter 111

Only the sound of Eva’s shaky breaths and the soft rustling of blankets as Tiana wiped sweat from her sister’s brow filled the nursery chamber. Moonlight glowed through the windows, painting everything in pale silver. The twins lay swaddled beside Eva’s bed—one stirring, his eyes alert, the other still as shadow.

Eva didn’t notice the creak of the window frame until the cold breeze hit her face.

Then came the whisper.

“I see it now… destiny,” Georgina murmured, standing in the open window, her red eyes locked onto the cradle.

Tiana spun around, hand already reaching for a blade.

Eva forced herself to sit up, her voice hoarse but firm. “They’re not yours to touch.”

Georgina took a slow step forward, her black cloak fluttering behind her like wings of smoke. The black sword from earlier still hung at her side, but it was the look on her face that chilled Eva—the twisted mix of awe and hunger.

“They smell like death,” Georgina whispered, her voice trembling with something between reverence and madness. “And destiny.”

Tiana snarled. “Wrong window, corpse queen.”

Without another word, she launched a dagger. It struck Georgina’s shoulder with a sickening thunk, and the vampire queen hissed, stumbling back.

Georgina’s glowing eyes turned to Tiana in betrayal, but before she could move, Max burst into the room, growling, his eyes wild.

“You’ve gone too far,” he growled in her ear. “And you’re not coming near them again.”

“Max, wait!” Eva tried to get up but winced as pain lanced through her body.

“I’ve got her,” Max said without looking back. “She’s not dying here. Not yet.”

Georgina didn’t resist as he pulled her through the hall, her eyes never leaving the cradle.

“They belong to the darkness,” she said softly. “They’ll come to me, in time. One always does.” And then just like that, she was gone.

Tiana stood guard by the door, eyes darting from Eva to the twins, and then to the hallway where Max had disappeared.

Moments later, they heard the iron door of the Crescent dungeons slam shut.

Silence fell again.

“I know,” Eva said, staring at the cradle. “But she was. And now…”
