*Caleb*

She was suspecting but not believing I got this place just to be closer. I couldn't pass the chance, the owners had been trying to sell it for years, and they gave me a good price for the land. I didn't know how I was going to survive the next couple of days without seeing her. I need to leave her guarded. Perhaps Alex can have some time looking after her in my absence.

My wolf was pacing, wanting me to do more, but I could scare her if I did. The mating pull is a painful torture, we are entitled to claim her, but she was human, and we needed to court her. She deserved it, my wolf agreed with a huff and laid in all fours looking at me with annoyance. He knew I was right. Convincing your beast is not easy sometimes.

I accompanied her to the guest room so she could gather her stuff. On the way, she was silent and pensive. I was dying to know what she was thinking, what she was feeling. Once we got to the garage she gasped at my cars, I chuckled. I am a proud collector, and I bought two Mustangs that I desired earlier in the trip. If she saw my entire collection, she could fly away scared. Money tends to do two things on a woman, either draws them like flies or scares them away.

What a bittersweet moment when we said goodbye. I held her in a hug, my body trembling to do more, my lips almost shaking as I kissed her cheek. Her scent was driving us crazy, and my wolf was about to take over. She seemed more confident though, and she left in her car with half a smile but without looking back. I wonder if I did something wrong or if I could have done something more or different.

When I got back inside, Alex was waiting for me in my study.

"I hope she didn't cut you..."

"No, I was on my cellphone and cut myself with it while I crushed it. She played nurse."

He chuckled slightly. I was very happy to hear him talk again.

"So… She is the one?"

"Without a doubt... I am already about to lose my mind for letting her leave."

He raised his eyes at me and shook his head. "I remember how it was, even though my mate was a wolf, it didn't make things easier."

"After all these years Alex... " I sighed and sat on my desk. He held silent for a while.

"The Goddess never forgets someone... you just had to be patient and wait." How many times had he told me that?

I stared back at him. He never lost hope on me, even thoough I gave up a long time ago. "I owe you too much, brother."

"You owe me just one thing... revenge. Anything else is part of the job; as your friend and as your beta." He said to me as he got up, ready to leave. "I guess you will make me stay and keep an eye on her, right?"

"You guessed correctly. You might need a few days off, this shouldn't be a hard task."

"It's ok, I will do it. It will give me time to find some peace of mind. I'll get you her info in the morning."

"Alex... You need to talk to Cara, she is devastated." I said with all the seriousness that it concerned to it.

He sighed and closed his eyes. "I know, I will."

  • Simply His   Chapter 235: Epilogue

    *Meadow*The sun casts a warm golden glow, as if trying to heal the scarred landscape left by the war. Fields, once lush and green, lie ravaged, but sprouts of new life fight their way through the wreckage. The earth seems to be slowly stitching itself back together, just as we are.I sit anxiously as I wait for Sol to walk down the flowered aisle. She chose this place as the setting for her wedding, and when I asked her why, she said she wanted to honor those people who fell during our battle."Look at that," Xavier says, pointing to a small group of deer grazing in the distance. "Life always finds a way.""Indeed," I reply, my voice catching in my throat. The sight is both beautiful and heartbreaking. It's hard not to think of those who never got to see this moment of renewal.Right after the battle, we spent our days rebuilding the world around us, not only the physical structures, but also the hearts and minds of those left behind. It's a slow and arduous process, but with each bri

  • Simply His   Chapter 234: A Brighter Tomorrow

    *Solveigh*My consciousness returns slowly, as if emerging from the depths of a murky abyss. The voices around me are hushed and indistinct, like echoes in a fog. I strain to understand them, but they remain elusive.‘Sol,’ Seth's voice resonates within my mind, warm and reassuring. ‘You're going to be okay. You need more rest before your body can fully recover.’I want to respond, to tell him how tired I am, but my limbs are heavy and unresponsive. My eyelids feel weighed down, as if encased in stone. It's frustrating, this inability to move or communicate.‘Mom... Dad…’ I try to call for them in my thoughts, hoping Seth will relay my message.Footsteps approach, and I sense their familiar presence even before I hear dad's deep, calming voice. "Seth, how is she?""Her body is still too weak to talk or open her eyes or move yet," Seth explains gently. "But she can hear us."My heart swells with gratitude. They came, just as I knew they would. I wish I could see their faces or embrace t

  • Simply His   Chapter 233: Obliterated

    *Caliope*I watch Amral crumple to the ground, his eyes rolling back as he loses consciousness. Panic surges through me like a tidal wave, drowning out all other emotions. The dark creatures circle him, preparing to tear him apart, and something inside me snaps."Amral!" I scream, my voice cracking under the weight of my fear and desperation. He can't die; not now, not like this. My love for him, my need to protect him, fuels my anger and pain. I have more to fight for than ever before."Get away from him!" I roar, focusing all my dark powers into a singular force. Shadows stretch out from my fingertips, wrapping around the monstrous beings that threaten his life. I tug at the darkness, sending the creatures flying away from his motionless body."Please, you can't leave me," I whisper, tears streaming down my face. Desperation echoes through my voice, and I feel it deep within my soul. "You can't die."The creatures recover quickly, turning their attention towards me. But I'm not afrai

  • Simply His   Chapter 232: Shadowed Chaos

    *Solveigh’s*I step through the black hole portal, and my breath catches in my throat. The darkness enveloping me is thick, almost tangible, and I feel like I'm choking on it. Panic rises within me as I sense the presence of the creatures, born from the shadows and chaos that surround us."Sol," Seth's voice rings out, startling me. He's right beside me, his strong hand gripping mine. He steadies myself emotionally. My panic begins to subside a little, replaced by a sense of calm that only Seth can provide. "We'll get through this," he whispers, his eyes filled with determination."Where are they? Amrafel, Caliope," I call out, searching for our companions. Within seconds, they materialize before us, their powerful auras cutting through the darkness. Amrafel's eyes are like twin flames, lighting up his face, while Caliope's gaze is as sharp as obsidian."Ready to fight these dark creatures?" Amrafel asks, his voice low and steady. Caliope nods, her face set in grim resolve. I feel conf

  • Simply His   Chapter 231: Havoc

    *Solveigh*I feel like I am in a new state of existence, and every inch of my body is running with electricity; something else has replaced my blood, and the adrenaline is addictive. Seth’s hand presses on my back and I know the reason why I haven't fainted is that of him.A large creature falls close to me and I jump, but quickly regain my focus, not wanting to be distracted, but the smell that comes from its corpse is making me nauseous. I shiver slightly but lock my eyes on my brother Ian, and then I feel ready to try more.It is not the first time; I have done this before, transferring my abilities, affecting them in a way that helped them, enhancing them. I know I can do this, and so, I feel myself reach to Xavier and he shudders slightly, then his voice booms, and it starts to affect the lesser creatures that screech in what now has become a battlefield.I can’t erase the smile on my face; we are making things happen, they are stepping away, so many of them are on the floor alrea

  • Simply His   Chapter 230: Mayhem

    *Xavier*‘They are here,’ are Ian’s words. Words that reach me just as I finish kissing my mates.I rush outside and I see Ian in the middle of the large field, he is looking up to the sky and my eyes follow his. A black pool of nothingness is starting to grow, and I see the elementals panicking as they whisper things in different languages and I know my brother feels them more than me.This angers me; it is not like we weren’t expecting them. Sure, we didn’t know specifically when they were going to attack again, but we had been preparing for them.I focus on the fire elementals and I let my command voice do its job. “Gather up! Get ready! Distraction is needed very fast! Chop chop!”Uncle Aen is quickly joining them, keeping his calm as he looks at me and nods, he knows the time has come. I turn to look at my mates and I feel caught up in the same panic; my mates need to be safe.“Don’t you stand there, you need to get over there and help take them down,” Dana pulls me out from the s
