Aurelia’s POVWork resumed at 4pm and I was out earlier to make it to time. Going to work today, I wasn’t looking forward to meeting Kieran.Or maybe I was.After the careless gift he had sent this morning and my note bck to him, he had sent anothr paackage. This time, a box of white chocolate and a lengthy letter of apology.It relieved me to realise that he hadn’t grown cold feet and that I was really not alone.Maybe he truly loved me.But I was scared. The last time I gave my heart to someone, it was shatterd to pieces. Hell, I was still trying to recover from that heartbreak.Mum had been the one who stopped me from sending back the second package. She grabbed the basket with a smile.“I love lilies…and white chocolates are the absoluute best.”Before I could protest, she had vanished with the package.But it gave me the privacy of going through his letter. Reading through it, the weight of guilt fell on my chest. I could see Kieran’s intesntion boldly written on the page of th

Aurelia’s POVI woke up to mum’s voice over my head. She was saying something I couldn’t understand.I pushed the sheets off my body. The curtains had been thrown apart and the morning sun was creeping into the room, invading my face. I squinted and frowned.“It’s just 8 in the morning,” I said when I glanced at the time. “I had night’s shift yesterday, mum, fr goodness sake.”“There’s a package outside for you,” she told me.A package? I wasn’t the type to receive a package. And I wasn;t expecting one.I yawned. “It must be for the lady on the next block.”I was returning my head to my pillow, ready to shut my eyes and sleep my morning away, when her voice cut through my doze. “It’s for you,” she said. “Don’t keep the poor man waiting.”I exhaled and forced myself off the bed. My eyes were heavy from lack of sleep. Last night, I couldn’t sleep. Not when certainties filled my head. I was scared that I would wake up and realised that Kieran had found somebody better.Dimitri had been

Kieran’s POV“Are you going to get a mate this year?”That was basically the question that ruined every mating ceremony as far as I could remember. For many ceremonies, I remained mateless, angry, and felt stupid, just like a toy in fate’s hand. And over the years, I began to lose the confidence and hope that I would ever find a mate. But the moment I met her, there was something in me that told me she was special.And when I kissed her, I realised she was special indeed. The memories of that night hung to me like a second skin. A stranger. Yet, she had felt like someone I had known my entire life. I couldn’t shake off the softness of her lips against mine, the heat of her body, and the way her eyes searched into my soul. I knew she was special.And now, I’ve discovered she is my mate. And she is pregnant.Aurelia.I couldn’t stop thinking about her. Now that I’ve found her, I wanted to spend more time with her. I keep feeling it in my heart that she would vanish again because I am

Monday started like any other day.I had just finished ringing up a customer at the bar when the entrance bell chimed. I didn't bother looking up right away, my mind was too occupied with the register.“Welcome to Club Soda,” I said in the same cheerful tone my boss said I should sound like every time someone walks in.I had barely lifted my head to see who just walked in when I suddenly smelled it. A scent so familiar it sent a shockwave right through me.Sandalwood, Lavender, Wildberries.My stomach flipped.Oh no.I forced myself to lift my gaze and there he was. Tall. Powerful.Dangerous.His blue eyes locked on mine and mine widened in shock. Like a flame catching fire, recognition flickered in his eyes, and suddenly, the space between us felt suffocating.It was HIM!I knew him nor in the way you know so someone from a casual conversation but no —I knew him from the way his touch burned my skin. He was the stranger from that night.He was the — Oh God — the father of my c

I don't remember how far I ran.All I remember is the crushing weight of betrayal, the feeling of my heart being ripped from my chest as Dimitri spoke those words — words that shattered everything I had held onto for the past 2 years.“I had to accept her as my mate.” He accepted her? Then why didn't he tell me? Why did I have to wait for 2 years for nothing?Why did he make me hope for nothing for 2 years? Why did I have to believe that no matter what, Dimitri would come for me? Dammit!But when I returned, all I found was a man who had moved on. A man who had chosen duty over love.Heaven knows I should have expected it. I should've known.But that didn't stop the pain from clawing its way through my soul, leaving me hollow.So I had to run.I ran from the pack, from the land that no longer felt like home.I ran back to the human world, back to the life I had barely lived or the place I'd ever known. But even there, the pain followed me, wrapping around me like a second skin.

It's been 2 years. Two long, agonizing years since I'd left the Crescent Moon pack.Two long years since Dimitri sent me away to the human world to be safe while he fights for our pack's survival.I can still remember the way he looked at me that night, his eyes full of pain as he held me in his arms.“Aurelia, you need to go. It's for your own safety.” He said, his voice shaking so emotionally I could hear the cracks in them. I could see the way his eyes filled as he cupped my face. “I can't protect you here, Reila.”“I don't want to leave you.” Tears brimmed in my own eyes and I was crying now. “If you want to stay and fight then I'll stay by your side. I'll die with you if you die. Please, don't send me away.”But Dimitri looked at me like I was breaking his heart over again. “You don't understand, Aurelia.” He whispered. “I'm asking you to survive. I need you to be safe, to be strong. I cannot lose you. Okay?” “Okay.” I finally agreed, still sobbing.“Come here.” He drew me clo
