I am not sure when it started or how it happened, but I am glad that it did.

It was as if I had just woken up from a profound sleep. Like I was dreaming. But when I heard what Kelly said about hers and Merry’s connection, something inside me changed.

The heaviness that I used to feel in my chest disappeared.

You know that feeling when you are restricted? That suffocating feeling that you get when you struggle to breathe underneath the ocean? All of that suddenly disappeared.

I don’t usually

  • Alpha, I Won’t Let You Banish Me Again   Chapter 178 - Leo

    I found Mateo in the training yard behind the packhouse, running drills with three of my Moonlight Warriors as if he'd been born into this pack instead of visiting it. Aerin apparently assisted him here because he wanted to make sure my daughter was safe. I watched him as he took his position as three of my men began attacking him all at the same time. I know that he is a great fighter. He had proven that over and over again. And, as his friend, I also know when he’s distracted. Just like how he is right now. It was one of the things that I admired about him. How could he still be calm and composed despite the chaos in his mind? He moved efficiently, quietly, but not as flawlessly as he could be if his focus was on the task at stake. It is the minor details that no one would notice unless you have known the man all your life. The sparring had ended with one of my warriors almost getting close to him. I took that sign to walk up to him.He saw me coming and called a halt. The warrior

    Aerin led me through the palace in silence. She didn’t ask any questions, just continued walking ahead of me, leaving me alone with my thoughts that had been in complete chaos ever since I left the Fae King’s office. Watching Aerin’s composed silhouette in front of me made me think of my mother. She was a great fighter, one of the best. It makes me wonder what kind of control she had just to survive everything she went through before everything fell apart.Aerin guided me to a door near the place where my mother was now lying in her endless sleep. Knowing all of her and the Fae King’s sacrifices didn’t help ease the guilt that I was feeling. Instead, it just made it worse. “Here,” Aerin said as she held the door open for me. “You’ll be at the packhouse where your brother is once you step inside. And you have a little surprise waiting for you as well.” She added with a smile. “Thank you,” was all that I could muster to say as I walked closer to her. But before I could take a step ins

    “It’s okay, Kelly,” the Fae King said, a bittersweet sadness woven into his words. “If it’s too much, you don’t have to wake your mother. But… is it alright if she stays here with me?”I knew the Fae King only said it to ease the weight I kept piling onto myself, but that didn’t stop the pressure from building.“Kelly?” he called gently, but I couldn’t bring myself to turn around.“Is everything all right?”There was real worry threaded through his voice, and my pulse skipped. If I didn’t say something, anything, I know he’d come closer. I heard the scrape of his chair as he pushed it back. My eyes fluttered shut as I tried to gather every fraying emotion and pin it down before it spilled out.Just before he could take that first step toward me, my voice finally broke free.“I’m fine,” I managed to say. My voice was higher than usual, but there was nothing I could do about it. I swallowed and pushed on. “It’s just… everything is happening all at once. And I’m trying to keep up, I real

    I lingered with my mother a little longer, soaking in the comfort of her presence before I finally made up my mind. When I returned to my room, I opened the journals again, slowly, almost hesitantly, hoping that a fresh read might reveal something I’d overlooked. Some hidden clue. Some alternate path. Anything that would spare my daughter from being tangled in this prophecy.But no matter how many times I searched the lines, the meaning stayed the same. Unmoving. Unforgiving.“Fire and ice together shall awaken what love could not.”I sat there for a long while, breathing through the tightness in my chest. It would have been so much easier if this burden were mine alone. But it wasn’t. And that truth hit harder each time I faced it.Aerin was still away, still assisting Leo, no doubt. I couldn’t ask for her insight. Normally, I would have waited. She always had a way of explaining things to me in a way that I could understand. Making what seemed to be a threat become something that I

  • Alpha, I Won’t Let You Banish Me Again   Chapter 174 - Kelly

    “Fire and ice together shall awaken what love could not.”I reread the line. And again. And again. My eyes skimmed the passage I had practically memorized by now, but that sentence, that sentence, had never been there before. A chill crept down my spine. I snapped the journal shut, then flipped it open as if the words might vanish the second time around.They didn’t.I pinched my cheek hard enough to sting. Definitely awake. Definitely losing my mind.“Kelly?” Katherine’s voice cut through my spiraling thoughts. I nearly jumped, but relief flooded through me at the sight of her.I hurried toward her, journal clutched to my chest like it might escape.“I need you to check something,” I blurted, breathless and trembling. I flipped the journal open and pointed at the impossible line.“What do you see right here?” I demanded. Katherine arched a brow—her you’re-being-weird-again look—but leaned in anyway.“‘Fire and ice together shall awaken what love could not,’” she read aloud. Then she

    “Why, then? Why won’t you sign the alliance if you’ve already done so much for us? For me? I want to repay you, once we’re back on our feet.”For the first time since I’d entered, his quill stilled completely. When he looked up again, there was something different in his eyes, a sadness that I can’t quite explain.“Because,” he said softly, “I don’t want what happened to your father to happen to you as well.” He paused, his expression tightening with something that looked almost like grief.“I don’t want you dead.”Leo was silent for a long moment, the weight of the Fae King’s words settling over him like a heavy fog. He understood what the king was saying; he understood what had happened to his father. But after spending time in the Fae King’s presence, after seeing the flickers of gentleness behind the mask of cold and uncaring exterior, Leo knew one thing for sure: the Fae King would never hurt him. Not intentionally.“But you wouldn’t do anything to hurt me on purpose, right?” I a

    How do you fix something that’s broken?God, if I knew how, I wouldn’t be sitting here in this sad office thinking of ways to win back the woman I threw away. Thinking back, I don't know when or how Kelly and I started to drift apart. All I know is that now I still have hope to fix what I have bro

    When the nurse came out of the double doors and told me that Mateo was a match, it felt like a big burden was lifted from my shoulders, and that I could finally breathe. I also realized that once again, Mateo saved us. Still, it was too early to celebrate. Lylia still has a long way to go befor

    I have done a lot of shitty things in my life, but this was the worst. “In case you forgot, you banished me! You left me and Lylia to die! If Mateo and Alejandro didn’t see us, we would have died. We wouldn’t be here right now!” I paused my heart racing with so much anger. “And you dare ask me why
