EMMELINE

I couldn't move. My body felt frozen in place as the truth settled like a heavy stone in my chest. Darius had been part of the people who killed my family. The realization hit me like a punch to the gut. My mind spun, and I struggled to breathe, feeling the world close in around me.

"Take off your clothes," he said. His voice was so cold, it sent a shiver through my bones.

I looked up at him, my eyes blurred with unshed tears. I couldn't let him see me break. Not now. Not after everything that had happened.

I swallowed hard, trying to steady myself. "I.. have something to confess,"' I said, my voice barely a whisper.

Darius raised an eyebrow, his eyes narrowing as he studied me, suspicion dancing in his dark gaze. "Speak," he ordered.

My heart was pounding in my chest, but I pushed the fear aside.

“I… I have an infection,” I said quickly, the lie tasting like ash in my mouth. It was the first thing that came to mind, a desperate attempt to buy myself some time, some way out o

    EMMELINE⚪️⚫️⚪️⚫️The first slivers of dawn were just painting the sky when I stirred, a deep, contented sigh escaping me. I stretched, my muscles still pleasantly sore from yesterday’s quiet, intimate moments with Darius. The bed felt warm and safe.I opened my eyes, expecting to find Darius still beside me, but the space next to me was empty. I blinked and then saw him. He was already halfway dressed, his broad back to me, pulling on a dark tunic.“You’re up early,” I mumbled, my voice thick with sleep.He turned, a faint smile on his lips, his eyes soft. “I want you to come with me,” he replied, his voice low, a gentle invitation. “To the southern fields. They’ve finished the new orchard line. I want you to see it.”I pushed myself up, leaning against the headboard. Trees? After everything, after the chaos, the battles, the sheer scale of the challenges we still faced, he wanted me to see… trees? It seemed almost absurd.“You’re taking me to see trees, Darius?” I asked, a hint of a

    EMMELINE⚪️⚫️⚪️⚫️⚪️I spotted Sylas just past the garden wall, walking towards me with someone new. My curiosity immediately sparked. It was a woman, tall and strikingly beautiful, moving with an easy grace that spoke of confidence.“Emmeline,” Sylas greeted, his usual gruff demeanor softened just a touch. “Someone I want you to meet.” His gaze flickered between us, a hint of something shy, almost hopeful, in his eyes.The woman extended her hand without hesitation, her smile warm and genuine. “Rhea, Luna,” she introduced herself, her voice clear and strong.“Emmeline,” I replied, shaking her hand firmly. Her grip was strong, steady. I immediately recognized the subtle aura of a Lycan, powerful and grounded. A thought, a very obvious one, clicked into place. “Are you and Sylas… together?” I asked, a playful grin tugging at my lips.Rhea’s smile widened, a hint of blush rising on her cheeks. “Yes,” she confirmed, glancing briefly at Sylas, who shifted his weight, looking uncharacterist

    EMMELINE⚫️⚪️⚫️⚪️The sound of Valen’s enthusiastic chewing filled the quiet dining chamber. He was tearing into the meat, a small, fierce predator in training. It was only his second time trying real food, and he’d already proven his preferences. Mashed vegetables? Ignored. Shredded meat from my plate? Absolutely devoured.I watched him, wide-eyed, as he made happy, guttural noises, tiny bits of cooked beef clinging to his cheeks. It was both disgusting and utterly adorable. My son, a carnivore from day one.Callis chuckled warmly from across the room. “That boy’s going to chew through bone before his second year, Emmeline. Just you wait.” She had a point. He gnawed on that meat like a tiny wolf.“He gets it from his father,” I said, reaching out to wipe a smudge of meat from his chin. He just shoved another chunk in, oblivious, already reaching for more. My heart swelled with a mixture of amusement and pure, unadulterated love. He was everything.When he finally finished, leaving a

    DARIUS🎱🎱🎱Two moons. Two whole moons had passed since the Gathering, and sometimes it felt like two lifetimes. The initial, fragile peace had deepened, settled into something more substantial, more real. The estate, once a fortress humming with frantic anxiety, now resonated with the sounds of life. Most importantly, it resonated with the sound of Valen.And he moved, too. Crawling. He was everywhere, a small, determined tornado of baby energy, trying to claw his way towards everything he wasn’t supposed to touch. The decorative carvings on the coffee table, the flickering flames in the hearth, the stack of important, very breakable, parchments in my study – nothing was safe. He gripped with a strength that was frankly unsettling for a baby his age, his tiny fingers latching on with an iron vise. He was more advanced, faster, stronger than any baby I’d ever seen. It was fascinating, terrifying, and deeply, profoundly prideful, all at once.One morning, the proof arrived, a little

    EMMELINE🔮🔮🔮🔮I stepped into our room, my arms full of folded cloths I’d just collected from the nursery. My eyes, almost instinctively, darted to the crib. It was empty. My heart gave a familiar, sickening lurch, a quick, sharp stab of panic that always seemed to accompany Valen’s absence. It was an instinct now, this immediate fear, a reflex born from weeks of terror.Then, Callis’s voice echoed down the hall from a neighboring room. “He’s with me. Relax, Luna.”A breath I hadn’t realized I was holding shuddered out of me. “Thank the goddess,” I muttered, leaning against the doorframe for a moment, letting the wave of adrenaline subside. I set the folded clothes onto a nearby chest, my hands trembling just a little. My bones ached less these days, the deep, pervasive soreness from the birth and the aftermath of the attack slowly receding. But the feeling, that lingering vulnerability, hadn’t left my body entirely. Neither had the fear.I was just reaching for my robe, intending

    DARIUS🎱🎱🎱The estate, for the first time in what felt like an eternity, was finally quiet. Not the oppressive silence of dread, but the quiet hum of a world settling, breathing out a collective sigh of relief. The Gathering had passed, the last of the allied Alphas had departed, their promises of future support still fresh in my mind. Even the damned council, for once, had gone quiet. It was an unnerving calm, like the eye of a storm, but I’d take it. By the goddess, I’d take anything that wasn’t another bloody fight.I stood on the western wall, arms crossed over my chest, the fresh scars on my ribs still a dull ache beneath my shirt. My gaze swept across the familiar landscape, watching the patrols change shifts below. Their movements were crisp, efficient, a testament to the renewed discipline and purpose that had settled over my pack—not fear or desperation.A familiar shuffling sound behind me, followed by a slight shift in the air, told me Sylas had climbed the stairs to joi
