CHAPTER 106
LIANA’S POV
“So, have you picked a date yet?” My stepmom asked, her voice light as she sat at the edge of my hospital bed, her fingers gently adjusting the hem of my blanket like she couldn’t sit still. “I mean, the wedding dress, the hall, the cake… Liana, you haven’t even started anything. Do you know how fast time flies?”
I gave her a small smile and shook my head, letting out a soft sigh. “We haven’t even set a date yet,” I admitted, resting my head back against the pillow. “Everything happened so fast…. I haven’t really had time to think about any of that.”
She made a face at me, clearly unimpressed. “That’s exactly why you should be thinking about it now. Your dress alone might take months. And the baker for the cake? Don’t get me started. Do you know how long it takes to book someone good enough for a soon–to–be Luna Queen’s wedding?”
I laughed a little. “Mom, I’m barely out of bed. I think I get a pass for not picking cake flavors yet.”
She rolled her eyes. “Fine. But you better not leave me out when it’s time to choose the venue. You hear me?”
I was about to answer when the door to the room flew open and Killian barged in like he hadn’t seen me in years.
A huge smile was plastered across his face and before I could even sit up properly, he rushed over to the bed, dropped to his knees, and started peppering my face with kisses, on my cheeks, my forehead, my nose, everywhere. His scent hit me before anything else, and God, I didn’t realize how much I missed him until right
now.
“Killian-“I tried to laugh, squirming as his stubble tickled my skin. “Killian, calm down, mom’s right there.”
“Let her watch,” he muttered between kisses. “I’ve missed you so damn much.”
“Did you win?” I asked casually, trying to act like it wasn’t killing me to know, even though my heart was pounding just waiting for the answer.
Before he could even say a word, Richard, who had quietly entered behind him, answered for him.
“He did,” Richard said with a proud smile and bowed his head slightly in my direction. “Congratulations, Luna Queen.”
I blinked. “What?”
Killian grinned and finally pulled back a little, cupping my face gently in his hands. “I won, baby. It’s done. The people chose me.”
My lips parted in shock and my heart swelled so fast it felt like it was about to burst. “Oh my God, Killian… that’s … that’s amazing.”
He kissed me again, this time slower, more grounded, like everything we’d been through was finally worth it.
“What about the accident?” I asked softly against his lips. “Did you find out who was behind it?”
His face changed a little, his eyes darkening just slightly. “It was Alpha Dorian. He confessed. Or rather, he was exposed. He’s in the cell now. Logan and Steve are taking care of him.”
I understood exactly what that meant, and a small chuckle slipped out of me. Killian’s torture wasn’t ordinary. That man was about to wish he was never born.

The door opened again and this time, my dad stepped in with the pack doctor by his side.
The moment the doctor saw Killian, his face lit up with surprise and admiration. “Alpha King,” he said with a respectful nod. “Congratulations on your victory. The news reached us just a few minutes ago. The entire medical wing is celebrating.”
Killian gave him a small smile and a nod. “Thank you, Doctor.”
My dad looked just as proud. He stepped closer, his eyes never leaving Killian. “Well, look who the people crowned
“he said warmly.
Killian stepped forward and shook his hand. “Thank you. For everything.”
The doctor then turned to me with a soft smile. “You’re officially discharged. Your vitals are good and your strength is back which is surprising. You’re in perfect condition.”
Killian nodded. “Thank you for taking care of my wife.”
Mom laughed softly. “I love how you always say that. ‘My wife‘. Like it’s the most sacred title in the world.”
“It is to me,” Killian said without missing a beat.
Before I could argue or stop him, he bent down and scooped me into his arms like I weighed nothing.
“Killian! You caveman! Put me down!” I squealed, holding onto his neck. “People are watching.”
“Let them watch. You’re mine. I’m taking you home.”
“I can walk,” I mumbled, hiding my face in his chest.
“Too bad. This is happening.”

Dad and Mom followed behind us, both smiling like they were watching a movie. Killian didn’t care. He looked so proud, so happy, like carrying me out of there was his personal victory lap.
“Richard,” Killian called as we reached the elevator. “Handle the rest of the things.
Richard nodded. “Consider it done.”
