?Chapter 547:


    “It’s almost done. Hang in there!”


    The doctors and nurses urged me on as I struggled to remain conscious.


    Atst, a piercing cry filled the air. The delivery room erupted in cheers, and the doctors and nurses rejoiced. The baby was born.


    In that moment, all my pain seemed to vanish. I pushed myself up weakly, desperate for a glimpse of the new life I had brought into the world. He wailed loudly as a nurse cradled him in her arms. Tiny, wrinkled, and far from beautiful—yet my heart swelled when I saw him. He was mine.


    “It’s a little prince,” I heard a doctor announce before darkness overcame me.


    I didn’t know how much time had passed when I finally regained consciousness. Opening my eyes, I found myself lying in a hospital bed.


    Water… I was so thirsty. My throat felt parched, like a desert. I tried to sit up, only to realize I didn’t even have the strength.


    “Makenna! You’re finally awake!” Alice’s voice trembled with relief.


    “You’re awake!”


    I turned my head and saw Alice with tears in her eyes, and the three princes staring at me with worried expressions.


    yton quickly poured a ss of water and brought it to my lips. I took a few sips, the burning in my throat easing with each swallow.


    Everyone fell silent, refusing to meet my eyes. A chilling sense of unease spread through me, and I repeated the question more urgently. Still, no one answered.


    Finally, Alice managed to choke out between sobs, “The baby… the baby passed away.”


    My baby was dead?


    The words struck me like a blow, leaving my entire body rigid with shock. It couldn’t be true. I had heard his cry just before I passed out. How could he be dead now?

    “That’s impossible! He was fine then. How could he be dead now?” I screamed. “You’re all lying to me! This can’t be true! Where’s my baby?”


    Dominic’s voice, heavy with sorrow, broke the silence. “The baby passed away minutes after you gave birth. The doctors tried to resuscitate him but failed.”


    No… that was impossible!


    Tears streamed down my face as my body shook uncontrobly. I couldn’t bring myself to believe what I was hearing. “You’re lying to me! I want to see my baby! I want to see him!” I screamed, my voice raw with anguish.


    “The baby is really dead, Makenna,” Bryan said, his face etched with grief. “It’s our fault. We should have been here with you. If you need to me someone, me us.”


    Makenna’s POV:


    “No! My child can’t be dead!” I ripped the needle from my arm and screamed, “My child can’t be dead! I need to find him! I need to see him!”


    yton rushed over and pulled me into his arms. “You need to calm down, Makenna. This isn’t good for your health.”


    “How can you ask me to calm down? My child is dead! I can’t calm down!” I cried hysterically.


    yton’s hold on me tightened. His voice trembled as he pleaded, “Calm down, Makenna. You can still have another child. You’ve just given birth. Your body hasn’t recovered…”


    Before he could finish, I cut him off. “I want to die in his ce! Let me go! I need to look for him! I don’t believe he’s dead!”
