LOGINRoman’s POVWe still had some concerns to not leave Raven with her yet, so Kael had to do it. He had no intentions of forcing her into sleeping in his room.We were going to follow the rule that she could be with Raven when at least one of us was around her.Eira could only watch him walk away. Her fists clenched, she refused to listen to him."You can go to his room, if you want," I told her. "The bed is big enough to accompany you three."As much as I wanted her to be with me, as night was the only time I got to spend by her side alone, though we slept apart from each other, I wished her to be with her child as well. We could see her slowly warming up to the kid, and there was a hope of improvement in her psychological situation.At that, all Kael and her were now bonded mates and she should be sleeping with him, but...In response, she walked towards the mattress by the glass wall, her usual place. She lay on it and covered herself with the sheets from head to toe. She was acting
Rafe’s POVI closed my eyes and tried my best to calm down. After a while, I returned outside and handed her over a water glass filled with warm water, as it was cold.Sitting in the lounge chair, watching the kid in silence, she accepted the water without any protest or showing any hostility towards me after that kiss.Well, she kissed me back as well after I let her go just after the brief touch of her lips. So what happened later, she was the one to escalate it. Not like I was putting blame on her, because I was the one to start it out of my own greed to be close to her, to touch her. But I appreciated she was well aware of her own actions."The beautiful night calls for the drinks," Lucian said, to which others agreed.At the mention, Jason soon brought the liquor bottles from inside the home, but two were different—two tiny almond milk bottles that were meant for the kids.Jason passed each bottle to everyone. The liquor bottles to us, while he offered a milk bottle to Raven. "Yo
Rafe’s POVHer lips were fire against mine, defiant yet trembling with something she refused to name. I deepened the kiss, tilting my head and sliding my mouth harder over hers until her muffled protest turned into a soft gasp. That single sound broke through me like a spark in dry wood.She clutched at my shirt, fisting the fabric as though she wanted to push me away, yet her grip pulled me closer instead. My hands tightened at her waist, feeling the fragile rise and fall of her breath as I pressed her firmly against the glass. The cold surface at her back only made the warmth of her body burn hotter beneath my touch.When her lips parted, I took the opening without hesitation, sliding my tongue past her resistance to taste her fully. She met me with surprising fierceness, her tongue tangling with mine in a reckless battle neither of us seemed willing to end. It was wild, messy, nothing like restraint—an explosion of years of hate, fury, and something we didn’t wish to name.Her fing
Rafe’s POVAfter a quiet dinner, we all drifted outside into the garden. It was still early, and no one seemed ready for sleep. The lounging chairs had already been arranged in a broad circle around the fireplace, where Roman and Jason busied themselves with the wood and kindling.Kael stayed with Raven, allowing the boy to watch and learn about what the other two were doing, guiding him with the patient air of a father teaching his son.Lucian had let Fluffy loose, finally giving the pup some attention after neglecting him for days. Though Fluffy had always been Lucian’s, Eira had claimed him as her own now, and everyone knew it."Want to try it?" Jason asked, holding a few small logs out to Raven.Without hesitation, Raven stepped forward and arranged the wood neatly."Good," Jason praised, nodding approvingly. "Now, we have to light the fire..." He crouched down, explaining step by step as they lit up the fire.I arched a brow. Since when had Jason changed like this? On the journey
Lucian’s POVI looked at the peaceful view of Eira and her child watching TV while sitting side by side. She looked at peace as she must be watching TV after so many years. Even in our home, she just cooped herself in that very corner. The arrival of her son might start a change in her.Rafe was sitting next to Raven, commenting once in a while at certain foolish things in the movie, and Raven nodded to him, as if agreeing.Raven was holding a hamster in his lap, which he got from Eira when she came to him. And she allowed him.I was worried about the kid, and it somehow unsettled my heart in a way I couldn’t control. The thought of what they might have done to him was killing me inside.What happened with Eira, because of our fault, I wasn’t over it yet. And if it was the same with her child, I was not sure how I or any of us were going to forgive ourselves. The weight of our guilt was only increasing, instead of lessening anymore."Alright! Everything’s ready," Roman announced, and
Jason’s POVI watched how Kael and Rafe were taking care of Raven. How Kael assured her Raven is the son of this family and she agreed.In the past, I once dreamed of having a family and lots of kids with her, but didn’t expect the day would come like this. She and her kid were there, but I felt distant. I couldn’t bring myself to go to her and tell her let’s be like a family.Others told her, but I couldn’t, and that was more hurtful. I wish things weren’t like this."Hey bud, want to watch TV?" I heard Rafe ask as both of them went towards the sofa.Raven didn’t reply, but anyway both of them settled on the sofa close to each other, Rafe’s one hand resting on the backrest of the sofa behind Raven, as if sitting like a protective father.Rafe picked up the remote. "How about an animated movie?" he asked, "Good for little kids," he concluded on his own and started already.Rafe’s connection with the kid looked so natural and flawless, the way he treated him and called him bud. Even du
Kael’s POVUnbothered by the chatter around me, my gaze remained fixed on her, blind and deaf to everything else.Now that I was certain she wasn’t the one who had betrayed us, the one responsible for my parents’ merciless slaughter and the loss of our people, the feelings I had buried for so many
Roman’s POV"Don’t." A fragile voice trembled through the air, and we turned to see her standing there, small and scared.Eira.She was awake. She must have heard us speaking about her child."Please... don’t kill my child." Her voice cracked, eyes glistening with tears, her expression pleading. "H
Lucian’s POVJason and Rafe stood in front of Roman to block Kaizan’s view of Eira, while Kael and I stood facing him. The shameless bastard smirked and indeed stood there unaffected. Not sure where that smugness came from."Wasn’t the warning inside the council hall enough to put your mind in pla
Kael’s POV"The council has been informed that you’ve purchased a pureblood, Alpha Kael?"As expected, the motherfucker jumped straight to the point. At least that saved me time."I did," I replied, my tone sharp and cold as I turned my head toward the council. My gaze locked with Jeffery’s—calcula
