The pyres burned for three days.

On the fourth day, the ashes were cold. The pack began to rebuild. Walls were reinforced with iron and stone, gates were repaired, homes were restored, and the great hall was scrubbed clean of the blood that had stained the stones—blood of wolves and blood of shadows, black and red, mixed together in patterns that told the story of the battle.

  • Shared by My Husband's Best Friends   The Lycan King's Defeat

    The binding took three days.We did not sleep. We did not eat. We stood in the crypt, our hands joined, the bond blazing between us like a fourth heart beating in our chests, like a second sun burning in the dark. The shadows that had lived in the corners of the crypt for years retreated, unable to withstand the light. The shadow in Marcus's body writhed and screamed, throwing itself against the walls of the ritual, trying to break free, trying to find a way out, trying to find a crack in our resolve. But we did not let go. We poured our strength into the binding—our love, our hope, our fear, our grief. Every memory. Every moment. Every sacrifice.Cassian's arm healed as we worked, the bone knitting together, the flesh mending, the pain fading. I felt it through the bond—the sharp crack of the break when the shadow struck him, then the warm pull of the healing as the ritual's power flowed through him, then nothing but the steady strength of his grip. He flexed his fingers, and they mo

    The pyres burned for three days.On the fourth day, the ashes were cold. The pack began to rebuild. Walls were reinforced with iron and stone, gates were repaired, homes were restored, and the great hall was scrubbed clean of the blood that had stained the stones—blood of wolves and blood of shadows, black and red, mixed together in patterns that told the story of the battle. The wounded healed slowly, their bodies knitting together, their spirits lifting with each passing day. The children returned to the courtyard, their laughter filling the air once more—a sound that had been absent for too long, a sound that reminded us why we had fought, why we had bled, why we had lost so many.But the shadow of Marcus still lingered.Cassian found me on the balcony at midnight. The moon was full, the stars bright, the forest dark and still below. He stood beside me, his broken arm in a sling, his grey eyes fixed on the horizon where the trees met the sky. He had not slept well since the battle.

  • Shared by My Husband's Best Friends   Eli Comes to My Room

    The night Derek left to find Sarah, I did not sleep.Eli held me. His arm was wrapped around my waist. His chest was warm against my back. Hope slept in her bassinet at the foot of the bed. The apartment was quiet. Too quiet.But my mind was loud. Roaring.I thought about Derek's desperate face when he said he still loved her. That broken look I had seen so many times before. I thought about Sarah's lost baby. The pain that had driven her away across the ocean, then brought her back, only to leave again. I thought about Luca's new apartment, his new date, the way he had held Hope before he left. I thought about Eli. His patience. His kindness. Four years of waiting. Four years of watching me marry someone else, break, and come back to life with someone who was not him.I rolled over. Eli was awake. His eyes were open, staring at the ceiling.He asked if I was okay. His voice was soft. Tired.I said I was thinking about Derek.He said Derek was a grown man. He would make his own choice

  • Shared by My Husband's Best Friends   Three Days of Silence

    Derek stood in the doorway. His face was gray. His hands hung limp at his sides.I asked him to come in.He walked to the couch. He sat down. He stared at the floor.Luca brought him a glass of water. Derek did not drink it.Eli sat across from him. I sat next to Derek. Hope was in her crib, sleeping.No one spoke.Finally, Derek said Sarah had called him from the hospital. She was alone. The baby was gone.I asked if he had gone to her.He said no. She did not want him there. She blamed him. For leaving. For not loving her. For everything.I took his hand. His fingers were cold.He said he did not know what to do.Luca said there was nothing to do. He just had to be there. If she changed her mind.Derek looked at Luca. His eyes were empty.He said Luca was lucky. Luca had a daughter. Luca had a family.Luca said he knew.Derek stood up. He walked to the door.He said he needed to be alone.He left.The door closed.Eli looked at me. He asked if I thought Derek would be okay.I said I

  • Shared by My Husband's Best Friends   Luca Leaves

    Derek stood in the doorway. His face was pale. His hands were shaking.I asked him to repeat what he said.He said Sarah was pregnant. Three months along. She had not told him until last night.I stepped aside. He walked in.Eli was in the living room, holding Hope. Luca was in the kitchen. They both looked at Derek.Derek sat on the couch. He put his head in his hands.He said he did not know what to do.Eli asked if the baby was his.Derek said yes. Sarah had told him. There was no one else.Luca walked to the living room. He stood by the window. His arms were crossed.I sat across from Derek. I asked if he was going to be with her.He looked up. His eyes were red.He said he did not love her. Not the way she deserved. But she was carrying his child.I asked what he wanted.He said he wanted to be a father. He had watched Luca with Hope. He had seen the way Luca looked at his daughter. He wanted that.I said he could have that. Without being with Sarah.Derek shook his head. He said

  • Shared by My Husband's Best Friends   Guilt at Dawn

    The night after Derek left, I could not sleep.Hope was in her crib, dreaming. Eli was beside me, his arm around my waist. Luca was in the guest room, alone.I slipped out of bed. I walked to the nursery. Hope was on her back, her tiny fists curled near her face. She looked peaceful. Innocent. She had no idea that her father was sleeping in the next room, or that the man holding me at night was not him.I sat in the rocking chair. I watched her breathe.The door creaked. Eli walked in. He sat on the floor next to the rocking chair. He rested his head on my knee.He asked if I was okay.I said I was thinking about Luca. About how he must be feeling.Eli was quiet for a moment. Then he said Luca was probably feeling guilty.I asked why.Eli said because Luca had spent years wanting me. And now he had a daughter with me. But I was still in love with Eli.I looked down at him. His eyes were tired.I asked if he felt guilty.He said yes. Because he had thrown away my number. Because he had
