Chapter 170: The Lost Sister

(Aria’s POV)

Dominic noticed my intense staring and couldn’t help but tease me, his silver–gray eyes gleaming with playful

amusement. “What’s wrong? Are you mesmerized by how handsome your Alpha mate is?”

I humored him with a gentle smile, my wolf purring contentedly beneath my skin at his lighthearted mood. “Yes, absolutely. The most handsome Alpha in the entire Northern Territory”

Dominic seemed relieved to see me smiling again after my earlier distress. But then his keen Alpha senses picked up something else. His gaze fell on the glass of water still sitting on the coffee table, the one Eleanor had barely touched.

“Did someone visit our territory while I was gone?” he asked, his powerful Alpha presence shifting to concern.

My heart skipped a beat, but I quickly shook my head. “No, that’s just my water glass. I was drinking earlier.”

I couldn’t tell him about his grandmother’s visit, about the envelope still hidden away with its impossible

ultimatum. The weight of that secret pressed heavily on my chest.

Dominic studied me for a moment, his Alpha instincts clearly sensing something was off. But he chose not

to push, instead changing the subject entirely.

“You know what? You should take a day off today,” he suggested, his cedar scent wrapping around me protectively. “Why don’t we visit your brother James at the werewolf psychiatric center? You’ve been worried

about him.”

I nodded, grateful for the distraction. “That sounds like a good idea.”

“And,” Dominic continued, his voice taking on that familiar persistent tone, “we can finally get that DNA test done properly. I still think there’s something wrong with the previous results.”

I rolled my eyes, my pregnant wolf stirring with mild irritation. “Dominic, you’re like a dog with a bone about this DNA test. What’s gotten into you?”

“My Alpha instincts,” he replied seriously. “They’re never wrong about family connections.”

Despite my annoyance with his persistence, I found myself agreeing. “Fine. If it’ll make you happy, I’ll do the

test again.”

An hour later, we arrived at Silvercrest Werewolf Psychiatric Center. Dr. Marcus Thompson greeted us in the hallway, his professional demeanor warm but tired.

“Alpha Dominic, Luna Aria,” he said with a slight bow. “I’m pleased to report that James continues to show improvement in his wolf–human bond stability.”

“That’s wonderful news,” I said, genuine relief flooding through me.

“His episodes have decreased significantly,” Dr. Thompson continued. “His wolf is no longer comp

withdrawn, and he’s begun engaging in therapeutic activities.”

Through the observation window, I could see James sitting peacefully at a small table, painting with

watercolors. His movements were calm, deliberate, focused on the canvas before him.

“He looks so peaceful,” I murmured, watching my brother’s concentrated expression.

“Sometimes I wonder if this might actually be better for him,” I said softly. “Before his breakdown he was always so angry, so troubled. Now he seems… content.”

Dr. Thompson nodded understandingly. “Many families struggle with that same thought. But James deserves the chance to fully recover his faculties.”

Dominic stepped forward, his Alpha authority evident. “Dr. Thompson, I’d like to arrange another DNA test for Aria. The previous results may have been compromised.”

The doctor looked surprised. “Compromised? How so?”

“We discovered that several hospital staff members had been bribed to manipulate test results,” Dominic explained grimly. “I want to ensure we have accurate information about her family connections.

“Of course,” Dr. Thompson agreed. “I’ll arrange for a completely independent test with our most trusted

technician.”

Just then, Dominic’s mobile phone rang. The caller ID showed Dr. Nathan Lewis, and Dominic answered immediately.

“Nathan, what’s got you calling so early?”

Dr. Lewis’s voice came through the speaker, extraordinarily excited and breathless. “Dominic! You’ll never believe what’s happened!”

“What is it?” Dominic asked, though his tone seemed oddly restrained.

“I found her! After all these years, I finally found my sister!” Dr. Lewis exclaimed, his joy practically radiating through the phone. “The werewolf medical database had a DNA match! She’s been living in the Southern Territory this whole time!”

I felt genuinely happy for Dr. Lewis, knowing how much finding his sister meant to him and his mother’s

mental health. The family had been searching for decades.

“That’s… wonderful news,” Dominic said, his Alpha demeanor seeming strangely subdued for such

momentous news.

“Mother is beside herself with joy,” Dr. Lewis continued. “We’re planning a welcome celebration banquet next week. You and Aria must come! It’ll be a proper introduction for my sister to the werewolf community.”

“We’ll be there,” Dominic replied, though I noticed his lack of enthusiasm.

“I can’t wait for you to meet her,” Dr. Lewis said. “She’s everything I imagined she’d be. Beautiful, intelligent, kind–hearted. Mother says she has our family’s healing gift.”

After the call ended, I looked at Dominic curiously. “You seemed less excited than I expected about Nathan’s good news.”

Dominic shrugged, his silver–gray eyes unreadable. “I’m happy for him, of course. Finding lost tamily is always a blessing.”

“When will his sister finally be coming home to their pack territory?” I asked, genuinely curious about the family dynamics.

“Soon, I imagine, Dominic replied, then redirected the conversation. “You seem very interested in the Levils family situation.”

“It’s just nice to hear about families being reunited,” I said wistfully, thinking of my own complicated family

circumstances.

“Speaking of which,” Dominic said, “don’t forget about that welcome banquet. These pack celebrations can be quite elaborate.”
