Thane sent buses. We stayed until every pack member boarded.

    Victoria’s POVWhere are we going? I asked him.Dinner first.At the airport? Makarius, what are you up to?I want to spoil you, that's all, he said as he took my hand and kissed it. He pulled over, and after we got in, the steward closed the jet door.I sat down next to him. "Come here," Makarius said. "I need time with you. Just the two of us. Maybe it's selfish of me, but...""You are not selfish," I interrupted him. Then I sat in his lap. Between kisses, I asked, "Did I ignore you too much?"Makarius chuckled. "Yes, you did. I should be your number one priority. When we were in the pack, you always surprised me with little...""Adventures. Call them adventures, please.""Are you ashamed of what you did?""Of course not. It's just you and me," I said. But even as I spoke, something deep inside me twisted, a shadow I couldn't quite shake. His eyes drew me in, searching for my soul and making me feel exposed in a way that was both comforting and frightening.I wondered if he could se

The city is fine, but I belong in the wild.He laughed. My wild girl, you really do. Just a few more days, and I get to hold my grandchild. I thinkAbrax takes after me. He’s only five months old and already giving us trouble. He was making bubbles and mumbling. Then Makarius walked in, and Abrax’s eyes lit up when he saw his dad.

We lay on the bed with Abrax between us.Have you seen a child so adorable? asked. I chuckled, then played with Abrax for a while until Pirate walked in.May I speak to you for a minute, Victoria? We sat together on the couch in the living

    Victoria’s POVWe walked into the hotel lobby; his suit jacket draped over my shoulders.Makarius chuckled."You find that funny?" I asked, smiling."Yeah, I do," he said as the elevator doors closed. He kissed my neck, his hand sliding under my dress.The doors opened, and an older couple stepped in, glancing at us sideways.Makarius pulled me close to his chest. The couple got out a few floors later, leaving us alone again.He carried me to the room and opened the door. The sweet scent of roses filled the air, mixing with soft vanilla from the candles. The gentle light made the deep red roses stand out. Everything was set up to feel intimate and magical, leaving me breathless.The tub was ready. I undressed and got in, and he joined me. My body relaxed as his gentle hands touched me."You’re so beautiful," he whispered.I took his hand and brought it to my face. "Makarius..."He stood up and grabbed towels, wrapping one around me and one around himself. Then he carried me to bed.A

    Victoria‘s POVI walked slowly while Makarius held my arm."Why are you so stubborn?" he said. "The baby could come any minute.""Makarius, I need to make sure everything is finished."The conference room was packed.He helped me into a chair."Thank you all for coming. This is it. Now we’ll see if all our hard work paid off.""Doxon, please go ahead."He stood up and clicked to the first slide. The room went completely silent. I could tell everyone was trying to process the numbers.I caught Doxon's eye, and he smiled at me."Oh my," I said, covering my mouth. Makarius started laughing, and then the whole room burst into cheers."Yeah, not only did we sell out, but we have orders to fill for the next three months," Doxon said. "Please give a round of applause to Ms. Apian."I shook my head. When they stopped. I looked around.You all, together, made this a reality—also, a huge thank you to Mr. Lance for believing in my ideas. I felt pain surging through me. "Makarius," I managed to s

    Makarius’s POVMy eyelids felt heavy, and my head throbbed. Suddenly, I caught a scent I didn’t recognize.I turned my head and saw a blonde woman lying naked next to me. My heart skipped a beat, and a cold sweat broke out on my forehead. No way, I thought, this can’t be real. A wave of shock coursed through my body as fear and confusion battled within me. What happened last night? The scent of unfamiliar perfume mingled with dread as I struggled to piece together the fragments of my memory.I sat up and put my feet on the floor. When I looked again, the woman was still there.Who the fuck are you? I shouted.The woman sat up quickly. The sheet slipped off, exposing her upper body.Just when I thought things couldn’t get worse, the door opened, and Balthazar stood there, blinking at me.I started to explain, but he closed the door before I could finish.A surge of panic gripped me as I turned back to the woman. My thoughts were racing, and everything felt surreal. What if I never lear

    Victoria’s POVThe harsh glare of the hospital lights stung my eyes as I struggled to open them, a sharp reminder of where I was. The steady beep of the heart monitor echoed in the background, grounding me in the present.Drystan was on the phone.Oh, she’s awake, I’ll put you on video.Victoria, Makarius said, how are you, my love?My head hurts.I will come tomorrow, the doctor said you have a mild concussion, and the baby is fine.Makarius, you don’t have to come.

You don’t need to travel again. But deep down, I knew that the slightest misstep could shatter everything—my sense of autonomy, the peace I’ve found in this new life, or even the fragile future of our marriage.
