로그인ARIA He was her first love. Her heart. Her childhood. But when secrets and drama come to live, she did the best thing she could do. Faked her death, and ran away. Six years later, and he’s in front of her again. She wants nothing to do with him, wants to run away. But Adrian knows her already. And this time, he’s not willing to let go. But would he still stay when he finds out what truly happened years ago? Find out in this dangerous love story of ALPHA ADRIAN AND LUNA ARIA. ADRIAN On the night Alpha Adrian marked Aria, she died in a big fire, leaving a hole in his chest that can never be repaired. He thought she was gone, that was what the reports said, but six years later, she’s alive, blood pumping, golden eyes that he can never forget and suffering in the human world. He has so many questions, with a burning anger inside of him. Why would Aria lie to him? Did she not die that night? Who is the owner of the bastard son and who touched what belongs to him? But none of it is as important as the one in his heart, the one he cannot forgive and forget. Did she not love him to have run away? Was the love they shared not mutual?

I never said it would be free.”“You told the doctor—”“I told the doctor I’d be the donor.” He shrugged, unbothered. “I didn’t tell him on what terms.”I stared at him. “What is wrong with you?”He took a step closer, hands in his pockets, perfectly relaxed, like this was nothing more than a business negotiation he was mildly enjoying.“Nothing’s wrong with me. I just don’t see why I should hand you anything for free. You’re not a saint, Aria. You’re a woman who stole from me, lied to my entire pack about her own death, and vanished for six years. Helping you for nothing does absolutely nothing for me.”“What do you want?” He kept going like I hadn’t spoken, working himself up into something colder.“Do you understand what I went through? Six years thinking you were ash. Six years of—”“What do you wan
ARIA“Where’s my son?” I was already moving before the car had fully stopped, the door barely open, my feet hitting the pavement at a run. Someone caught my arm gently.“This way.” A nurse, already waiting. “He’s stable. He’s in our private ward.”Stable. The word didn’t fully land until I was halfway down the corridor, my heart still going too fast to process anything properly.The room they brought me to wasn’t like any hospital room I’d ever stood in. Wide windows, soft lighting, a real bed instead of the narrow ones I was used to.Eli was asleep in the middle of it, small against the pillows, an IV taped neatly to the back of his hand, his chest rising and falling in a rhythm that was finally even, I went to him and pressed my lips to his forehead and didn’t move for a long moment.“He’s okay,” a voice said behind me. Adrian’s. Flat, but not unkind.“He’ll stay that way ”I turned. “How is this even—” I gestured at the room, the equipment, all of it clearly beyond anything Daniel’s
ARIAI’d thought I knew what fear was, I’d been wrong. The fear I felt with Marcus’s hand at my throat, his weight pressing me into the wall, was a different type of fear than anything I’d known. I remember thinking, very clearly, I am going to die in this place and nobody is going to find me, my son is going to be left with no one. Then Adrian was there, and the fear shifted into something else, because the look on his face as he pulled Marcus off me wasn’t rescue. It was annihilation. I watched him hit Marcus again and again and I understood, somewhere underneath the panic, that he wasn’t going to stop on his own.“You’re going to kill him,” my voice broke as I witnessed his fury, I didn’t expect him to stop but he did. He turned to look at me and something moved across his face, fast, raw, the cold cracking wide open for just a second. Then he was crossing the distance between us, his hands coming up, checking my collar, my throat, my arms, quick and clinical and somehow also ach
ADRIANDead. That’s what they told me. Six years ago, standing in the ash and the ruin of my mother’s house, the pack’s best trackers confirmed what the fire had already said. Nobody, no remains. Nothing that could be identified as anything, just ash and the smell of accelerant and the end of everything.I had stood there and felt the mate bond go cold inside my chest and I had not moved for a very long time.I keep coming back to that night. The way the smoke smelled. The way Cassian had to physically pull me back from the doorway because I was trying to walk into a building that had already collapsed in on itself, like there was still something to save, like six hours hadn’t already passed.She used to laugh at me for things like that. For not knowing when to stop.I’d known her since we were children. Eleven years old, both of us, and I remembered the exact day, the training yard, her standing at the edge of it in boots two sizes too big because nobody had bothered to get her prope
