Continuation.

Valerie.

"You are a virgin?"

The question hung in the air, heavy and raw.

I nodded, biting my lip as tears welled up.

“Why didn’t you tell me?”

“Would you have believed me?” I whispered. “I thought… Maybe it didn’t matter. I am pregnant. Who would believe I was a virgin?”

He let out a harsh breath, swearing under it. He looked down at where our bodies met, and the blood confirmed what my silence hadn’t.

“I was saving myself for marriage,” I admitted. “For my wedding night. We were waiting with Tim, funny how that turned out right?”

Max looked like he was about to argue, but instead, he shook his head and slowly withdrew. The pain eased a little, but it didn’t disappear.

“I didn’t mean to hurt you,” he said, voice low and tight. "I didn't know."

I nodded, even though it still burned. He moved carefully this time, easing himself back in, and though it still ached, it wasn’t as sharp. I winced, trying to adjust to his size. He was big, too big and the stretch of it made m

    The unexpected ReunionValerie. I actually could not believe he didn't even bother to wait for me so we could walk together to his waiting private jet. Was he mad at me? Or maybe he didn't want to be seen with me. The airport was buzzing with movement and sound. People dragging suitcases, voices layered over loudspeaker announcements, the beeping of carts zipping by it was chaos. But even in the middle of it all, Max was all I was thinking about. One minute he was warming my heart with soft glances and gentle touches, and the next, he was leaving me at the terminal like I didn’t even matter. I hadn’t seen him since the limo dropped me off, and he hadn’t even bothered to wait for me. What if he’d changed his mind? What if Alpha Kai got into his head?What if… he was going to get rid of me?I bit the inside of my cheek, blinking rapidly to hold back the sting of tears. No. I couldn’t cry here. I wouldn’t.I scanned the overhead signs for the private terminal where Max’s jet was supp

    The Silence Between UsValerie. I woke up to the sound of birds chirping faintly outside the window and a warmth at my back that made me smile before I even opened my eyes. Max’s arm was wrapped around my waist, his breathing slow and steady, and for the first time in what felt like forever, I felt… content.Safe. I could get used to this, waking up next to this amazingly sexy man. The memories from last night fluttered through my mind, the way he held me, kissed me, looked at me like I was more than just the human girl carrying his child. Like I mattered. His touch and I started getting goosebumps all over my body, desire building back up between my legs despite the fact that I was still so sore from the events of last night. I shifted gently, turning in his arms to face him. His eyes blinked open, those emerald green irises softening when they met mine.“Good morning Handsome,” I whispered.He let out a deep breath that sounded like peace and tucked a strand of hair behind my ear

    ValerieI don't know how long I lay there fantasizing about Max, until I heard my door open, and sat up. There he was in all his glory, wearing nothing but his Grey sweat pants, he looked at me with that look that told me he wanted me just as much as I wanted him. He sat beside me, his leg brushing mine as he shifted closer. The contact sent a shiver through my stomach, tiny wings of nerves and anticipation dancing beneath my skin. His hand moved slowly, fingers tugging on the edge of the blanket I clung to like a shield. He exhaled deeply but didn’t pull the covers away forcefully. Instead, he leaned over, grabbing the cup of water he’d handed me earlier, his scent enveloping me in warmth and tension.Then his eyes found mine, those deep, dark eyes that always seemed to know more than they should. They pinned me in place. He wasn’t asking for permission. He already knew I wasn’t going anywhere tonight.It wasn’t fear that gripped me, it was the heaviness of a truth I hadn’t spoken

    Valerie. The room was dimly lit with the soft golden glow from the antique lamps on either side of the massive bed. I stood by the window, arms folded over my chest, trying to process everything. From the secrets about Alpha Kai to the graveyard visit earlier that afternoon, my mind was a mess. And yet, in all that chaos, one thing stood out clearly.Max.His presence behind me was grounding, even when everything else felt like it was slipping from my grasp.“I didn’t mean to overwhelm you,” he said gently from behind me.I turned slightly, eyes meeting his. “You didn’t. I just… I didn’t realize how much pain you were carrying.”His lips pressed into a soft smile as he stepped forward, closing the distance between us. “It’s not pain I talk about often. But with you, it’s different. I want you to know me, Valerie. The real me.”My heart thudded in my chest. Not because of fear or anxiety. But because somewhere along the line, I had started to care. Genuinely care about him.“Why me, M

    His Mother’s SilenceValerie. I leaned against the wooden balcony railing, gazing out at the vast forest behind the estate. The air was crisper here, fresh and filled with the quiet rustle of wind through leaves. Somewhere in the distance, I could hear wolves howling soft, melodic, and oddly comforting now.Behind me, the glass doors to the guest room slid open with a soft click. I turned to see Max stepping out, a bottle of water in one hand, his other rubbing the back of his neck. He looked different tonight, less polished, more like the boy he must’ve once been.“Hey,” he said, walking toward me. “You okay?”I nodded. “Just thinking.”He handed me the bottle and leaned on the railing beside me, his body close but not imposing. We stood there for a beat, just listening to the wind.“You were quiet on the way back,” he said after a moment.“I’m just… processing everything,” I admitted. “Your mother’s grave. The things your father said. It’s a lot.”Max let out a low breath, eyes sca
