Chapter 23: The secret

Lilith's POV;

In the photo was a child, a boy of not more than three years with dark hair and blue eyes.

The same shade of blue I was all too familiar with.

Adams,

I know you're hurting, but so am I. Each moment spent without you is pain. A pain so raw, that it feels as though a hot knife is searing through my heart.

I promised not to come back to the town, but it's time we stopped hiding when we're not some dirty little secret.

You're married now, and I respect your decision to do so. However, it would be nice to see you, even if it has to be for just a moment. I'll stay out of your way, and you won't even know I'm there.

Ted misses you. I named him Teddy, after your wolf. It's funny, right, when we aren't even mates. But our bond is greater than that of mates.

Someday, I'm going to have to tell him about his father. Although I have no idea about what to say, all the same, he's going to have to know.

In case you want to visit, we're going to be at the first apartment you got for me.
