I rolled out of bed on my own today. Since Brayan’s visit, Kamiko has been walking on egg shells around me. I had cried a lot and I was tired of crying. There was nothing I could do to bring Brayan back or make him forgive me.I’ve grieved enough, and I have decided to continue with my life. First stop was to go and see my parents and have a proper discussion with them and finally, see Edel and end things properly.“You’re up” Kamiko said. She was making breakfast.“Yes. I’m going over to the house. I need to speak with my parents”“Are you sure?” “Yes. It’s long overdue” she nodded.“Are you going to stay for breakfast?” I shook my head.“I can’t wait. I have a lot of things to do today”“Okay. But try and have something to eat”“I will” if I felt hungry but I didn’t add that last part. I stepped outside. The sun was shining brightly in the sky. I started the trek towards the house. I felt eyes on me as I walked past and some murmurs.The villagers have already heard about what happ

“What’s going on?” I asked still confused. “Paisley…” I looked at Nevaeh.“How did you get in” Edel asked and I shifted my gaze to him. “At the normal place. I needed to talk to you” he didn’t respond.“I saw a pregnancy test here Nevaeh. Are you pregnant?”“Paisley. Just be calm. I can explain”“Why are you even in his house. I went to the shop and you weren’t there. No. You haven’t been there in two days. Is this where you’ve been?” I asked calmly. My thoughts were running a thousand miles per hour. It wasn’t what I was thinking. It couldn’t be.“We…” she scratched her hair and looked at Edel.“Speak now” I shouted angrily. “Nevaeh and I are dating” Edel blurted out. I giggled and then it turned to full on laughter. They were dating?“Tell me it’s a joke”“I’m serious Paisley. Nevaeh and I are dating” I looked at her waiting for her to deny it but her guilty expression said it all.“You’re dating Edel? Since when?”“I-I… we”“You stutter now? You didn’t when you were vomiting a

My eyes opened slowly. The last four days have been the best for me. Absolutely exhilarating. It was absolutely needed and I wouldn’t trade it for anything.Brayan and I spent it like a couple. Just sex, eating and talking about life. The only thing that dampened my mood was the fact that he wouldn’t bite me but I understood his reason.He respects custom and it’s against his custom to bite me outside of the fourth ritual. We confessed our love for each other countlessly over the last few days.But like they say, all good things come to an end and this was about to. I grabbed his phone and sent a quick text to Garret to come to the cabin from Brayan’s phone. I received a positive response few minutes later.Brayan was knocked out from sleep. He would be until mid day tomorrow courtesy of the pills I slipped into his drink.He’ll be upset when he wakes up but it was for the best that I did this. I didn’t want him interrupting my plans or stopping me. I would always love Brayan. I won’

BRAYAN’s POV My head would not stop throbbing and I was having a hard time focusing. The bed was empty and Paisley’s scent was not strong here. My heart clenched when I considered the possibility that she could be gone. She wouldn’t do that. The last four days had been perfect for us.But you kept reminding her that you cannot be together. My wolf whispered in my ear.I grunted. It was the honest truth. So many times I had come close to marking her in the past few days but I fought the urge each time.It was against custom to mark her outside the mating ritual and we would never get to that if the blood bond is not completed.I wasn’t expecting to see her here when I came out here. With the mating season so close, my wolf was restless and it just wanted to rut. I didn’t want to get into a sticky situation by accidentally fucking any of the inmates women in the pack that was why I decided to come out to the cabin. Seeing her here was enough to send my wolf crazy. I tried to fight it

The flight back was very long and tiresome since we were a good distance away from our town. I was anxious but excited to see him.He didn't know that his mum and sister had come for me. Winry had admitted a few times that she heard him cry in his office though I doubted it. Brayan didn't look like one who would cry.I wasn't moving on like I had thought. Brayan was my whole world and if the only thing holding him back has been taken care of, there was nothing keeping us apart.Our plane landed and Garret picked us up at the airport. He had a wide smile on his face and sent me a wink through the rear view mirror. He finally parked in the driveway and we got down. Dakarai was waiting outside and he had a blank look on his face. The jitters returned. What if he hasn't forgiven me."Welcome child" he smiled widely and spread his arms. I rant to him and hugged him tightly. I missed them so much and I was glad to be back."Where is he?" Elowen asked."In his study" Dakarai said and slipp
