For one night, Damon had chosen me without asking me to choose him in return, and for the first time in a long while, I hadn’t felt the need to punish myself for finding comfort in that.

I woke the following morning with an unfamiliar feeling lingering in my chest. It wasn’t happiness exactly, but I felt calmer than I had in weeks. I had finally begun to understand that I could allow Damon to make an effort without surrendering the boundaries I had fought so hard to establish.

However, that pea

  • His Rejected Mate, His Greatest Regret    The Vision In Stone Of 2

    After the meeting, I went to the training grounds to inspect the equipment replacements Caleb had arranged. He greeted me as I approached “Luna, the western team has delivered the borrowed training blades. We’ve checked them, and they’re in good condition.”“Excellent. Make sure they’re recorded before distribution.”“I’ve already instructed the quartermaster.” Said Caleb.I nodded and examined the equipment. Everything appeared to be in order, but as I reached for one of the blades, a sudden wave of dizziness forced me to grip the table. Caleb immediately stepped closer. “Luna?”“I’m fine.”“You don’t look fine.” He said.“I stood up too quickly.”He glanced at the other warriors before lowering his voice. “Should I call the healer?”I hesitated, then accepted the chair he pulled out for me. After a few moments, the dizziness passed, Caleb remained beside me. “You should tell the Alpha.”“I’ll speak to him if it happens again.” I said.He looked unconvinced but didn’t argue. I return

    For one night, Damon had chosen me without asking me to choose him in return, and for the first time in a long while, I hadn’t felt the need to punish myself for finding comfort in that.I woke the following morning with an unfamiliar feeling lingering in my chest. It wasn’t happiness exactly, but I felt calmer than I had in weeks. I had finally begun to understand that I could allow Damon to make an effort without surrendering the boundaries I had fought so hard to establish.However, that peace did not last. The first strange dream came that night, I found myself standing beneath an enormous silver moon, surrounded by a forest I had never seen before. The trees were unusually tall, their branches stretching across the sky like dark fingers, and a narrow stone pathway led through them toward a distant structure.At first, I thought it was a temple. Its towering columns were made of pale stone, and a crescent moon had been carved above the entrance. Strange markings covered the walls,

    The answer was simple enough that I found myself agreeing. We walked through the corridor together, talking about nothing important until we reached the staircase leading to our private quarters. I expected Damon to turn toward his own study, but instead he stopped beside me. “I should let you rest, as you’ve had a long day.”I nodded, then hesitated. “Are you going back to work?”“I have some reports to finish, but they can wait until morning.” Said Damon.“Then why not go to bed?” I asked.He studied me briefly. “I can, if that’s what you’re asking.”I felt a small, unexpected smile tug at my lips. “I’m not asking you to do anything; I was simply wondering.”“I understand.”I turned toward the stairs, but before taking the first step, I noticed the faint tension in his shoulders. “Damon, is something wrong?”He shook his head. “Nothing is wrong; I’m just trying to decide whether I should tell you somethin

    Damon was learning to carry his regret himself, and perhaps that was the first thing I needed from him: not another promise that he would win me back, but the patience to accept that I might never return to him as the woman I had once been. For the next few days, I continued with my responsibilities in Shadowfang, attending council meetings, reviewing patrol reports, and working with Caleb to improve the warriors’ training schedules. Damon remained consistent in his own way, as he consulted me when decisions affected my duties, respected my opinions when we disagreed, and never treated my willingness to share a meal or conversation as an invitation to demand more from me. I was beginning to appreciate the quiet difference, although I still reminded myself that consistency over a few days could not erase years of disappointment. On the evening everything changed, I had planned to finish reviewing the eastern patrol reports befor

    Damon read through the schedule carefully before signing it. “This is well organized, and the overlap between the eastern and southern patrols should make it easier to respond if either team encounters trouble.”“That was the intention.” I said.He handed the document back to me. “I’ll have the guards informed before evening.”I took the schedule but remained beside the table. “Damon, can I ask you something?”“Of course.” Said Damon.“Are you avoiding me?” I asked.His expression changed slightly. “I’m trying to give you the space you asked for.”“I asked you not to pressure me, but I didn’t ask you to behave as though speaking to me outside work would be a mistake.” I said.He considered my words before answering. “I don’t want you to feel that every time we’re alone, I’m waiting for you to change your mind about us.”“I’m not asking you to wait for anything.” I said.“I know, but I also know

    I pressed my lips together, trying to hold back the tears. I had expected him to defend himself, but he had done neither. “I need you to stop treating every good moment between us as evidence that we’re getting somewhere,” I said. “I laughed with you yesterday and almost kissed you last night. Those things happened, but they don’t mean I’m ready to start over.”“I won’t treat them as promises.” Said Damon.“And I don’t want you watching me constantly, trying to figure out whether I still have feelings for you.” I said.Damon nodded. “I’ll give you room to work through what you feel without making you responsible for my hopes.”I took a shaky breath. “I need to know that I can have a difficult day, be angry with you, or change my mind without you deciding that I’ve ruined whatever progress we’ve made.”“You haven’t ruined anything by being honest with me.” Said Damon.I studied him carefully. “And if I ask you to leave me alo
