I didn't say anything.Because I agreed with her.Completely.

But for now, we had a bigger fight ahead.

Tomorrow was the election.

and I was going to win it for my son, for my mate, and for every damn thing that bastard tried to ruin.

It was election day.I didn't sleep much, but I was up early anyway.I got out of bed, got dressed, and went over the plan in my head while buttoning my shirt.

Liana was getting ready too, sitting on the edge of the bed, tying her hair into a bun while I buttoned up my shirt slowly.I don't know why, but I kept glancing at her, watching the way her hands moved, how calm she looked even though I knew her mind was probably going a thousand miles per hour just like mine.

There was a knock on the door, followed by Richard's voice."alpha, if we don't leave now, we'll be late."

I sighed and fastened the last button."We're coming," I called out.

Ryan was already downstairs, dressed in his little uniform, sitting on the couch while Omega agnes fixed his backpack.I crouched and pulled him into my arms for a tight hug, then kissed his forehead.

"You be good at school, okay?"I said, brushing his curls.

He nodded."are you going to win today, Daddy?"

I smiled."I'll try my best.But no matter what happens, you're still my number one fan, yeah?"

He grinned and nodded."Yeah!"

Liana came down with her heels clicking softly, looking breathtaking in a cream-colored dress and a small jacket.She leaned in and kissed Ryan too."Be safe, baby.Listen to agnes."

"I will!"he said, bouncing on his toes as the driver came to open the door.Omega agnes gave a small bow and got in with him.I watched the car drive off, a weird twist building in my stomach, but I didn't say anything.

I turned to Liana."Ready?"

She looked up at me with a tiny nervous smile and nodded."Yeah."

We walked out, and Richard opened the car door for us."We're a little behind schedule, alpha," he said as we got in."But we can still make it."

"I trust you to drive like your life depends on it," I said, smirking slightly, trying to lighten the weight I felt inside.

Richard gave a short laugh and started the car.

The roads weren't too busy, and for a while, the drive was quiet, too quiet.I reached for Liana's hand, intertwining my fingers with hers as she stared out the window, lost in thought.

"I'm proud of you, Killian," she whispered.

I turned to her."For what?"

"For not giving up.For getting here.For everything."

I squeezed her hand gently, about to say something, but then, out of nowhere, a black SUV came speeding from the opposite lane.

"Richard!"I shouted, but it was too late.

The sound of metal crashing into metal exploded in my ears.

The impact slammed into us so hard the whole car lifted off the ground before flipping once, then skidding sideways with glass shattering and metal bending around us.Liana screamed, my arms instantly going around her to shield her body, the seatbelt digging into my chest.

It was chaos.Pure chaos.

and then...
