Vivian's POV

I took my time getting ready.

Not because I was nervous. More because the morning felt like it required a certain kind of deliberateness, and I wanted to walk into Henry's wedding looking exactly like someone who belonged there.

By the time I came downstairs, Aiden and Jayden were already by the car, suited and ready, doing that thing they did where they both checked their watches within thirty seconds of each other without noticing.

"You look nice," Jayden said.

"I know," I said.

  • The Rejected Fourfold Luna: Fated to Two Alpha Twins    Chapter 66—The Trapped Path

    Celeste's POVThe drive home from Mercer and Vale was the quiet kind that asked nothing from me.By the time I pulled into the estate I was already thinking about food and a long shower and nothing else in particular. Both Mason and Jason's cars were absent, which wasn't unusual. They kept unpredictable hours when work extended into the evening and things tended to sort themselves out without much drama. I wasn't worried.I went upstairs, changed out of my work clothes, and was midway through loosening my hair when I heard the soft knock at the bedroom door.Neris.She stood in the doorway looking composed but carrying something uncertain at the edges of it, which was not her usual state."Luna." Her voice was low. "There is someone downstairs asking to see you. He says he needs to speak with you urgently.""Who is it?""I have not seen him before." A brief pause. "He is young. A boy, perhaps fifteen or sixteen years old." She hesitated. "He looks very panicked."A boy. Unfamiliar. P

  • The Rejected Fourfold Luna: Fated to Two Alpha Twins    Chapter 65—Caught Off Guard

    Celeste's POVI knocked twice and waited.There was a pause on the other side that lasted slightly longer than it should have for someone simply sitting at their desk working through client files on an ordinary afternoon.Then the door opened.Vaelina's hair was doing something it was not doing an hour ago. Not dramatically, not in a way a stranger walking past in the corridor would necessarily clock immediately. But I knew Vaelina's hair. I knew what it looked like when she arrived that morning, every strand deliberate, the way she always came in. I knew what it looked like right now.These were two very different states of hair and no amount of styling spray was going to bridge the gap.Torren appeared from just inside the office, jacket on, composed, every inch the professional pack representative. He looked at me with complete calm."Celeste.""Torren," I said.He walked past me and out into the corridor without another word, the clean and deliberate exit of a man who was not int

  • The Rejected Fourfold Luna: Fated to Two Alpha Twins    Chapter 64—Risk and Release

    Vaelina's POVI was back at my desk, half a mind on my files and the other half absolutely elsewhere, when the knock came."Come in."Torren opened the door.He was in a full suit, jacket on, the kind of composed presence he carried into every space he walked into without seeming to try.In one hand he was holding a paper bag that smelled, even from across the room, like something warm and good."I was passing by," he said, stepping inside and letting the door close behind him. "Like I said I would be."I looked at the bag. Then at him."You actually got me food.""You said you were hungry." He set the bag on my desk in front of me. "I said I would bring something. That is how this works."I opened the bag and the smell confirmed everything. I looked up at him. "You are serious.""I am always serious." A small, quiet smile. "Eat before it gets cold."I started pulling things out, already smiling despite every effort not to. He stood across the desk and checked his watch while I arrang

  • The Rejected Fourfold Luna: Fated to Two Alpha Twins    Chapter 63—Residual Thoughts

    Celeste's POVThe morning at Mercer and Vale was the kind that moved quietly, and I was grateful for it.No back-to-back calls, no urgent requests landing before I finished my first coffee, no fires to put out before the day properly started. Just the clean, manageable rhythm of a Tuesday that intended to cooperate, which I accepted without question and settled into with both hands.I was working through the stack of client files on my desk when I came across it."Aiden Carter."His name on the tab, the file from Torren's proposal sitting in the pile as if it was perfectly ordinary. Professionally it was. Just another account. Another set of terms to manage, finalise, and move forward on.I opened it anyway.I went through it gradually, the way I always did with new material, reading properly rather than skimming. The figures were solid. The investment Aiden was putting behind this particular venture was more than I expected, the kind of commitment that showed he was serious about b

  • The Rejected Fourfold Luna: Fated to Two Alpha Twins    Chapter 62—Royal Greetings

    Celeste's POV"Take a chill pill," I said, keeping my voice easy. "She is an ex. That is all. It is not catastrophic, it does not require a reaction, and it is definitely not the end of the world."Vaelina looked at me. Then she looked across the room at Calista. Then back at me with the specific expression she wore when she was processing something and wasn't quite finished."I am fine," she said. "I am completely fine. I just." She paused. "I never knew that.""Now you know.""Now I know," she repeated, quieter. Something moved through her expression, working through the information and placing it somewhere it made sense.Then her eyes sharpened with the particular focus of a woman who just solved a puzzle she didn't realise she was looking at."Wait.""I remember her from the Luna ceremony." She turned to face me properly. "The weird looks from the moment we arrived. The cold greeting. The way she looked at you like your presence in that room was a personal insult to her." She poi

  • The Rejected Fourfold Luna: Fated to Two Alpha Twins    Chapter 61—Whispers and Warnings

    Celeste's POVThe evening was warm and the grounds were lit the way Ulfsang always managed to make things look effortless.Mason and Jason were circulating, moving between pack members with the ease of men who genuinely liked their people. I watched Mason stop to speak to one of the older elders, his hand resting briefly on the man's shoulder, and felt something settle quietly in my chest the way it always did when I caught them being exactly who they were without an audience.I invited Vaelina. Partly because she would have found a way to come regardless, and partly because I genuinely wanted someone in my corner who would make the evening entertaining.She never failed at that."I cannot believe you live like this," she said the moment we arrived, looking around with the focused expression of someone cataloguing everything for a full report later. "Every pack event is like this?""Not all of them. Some are more formal.""And this is the relaxed version." She plucked a drink from a
