ATLAS'S POVThe moment I heard the sound of the door slam, a heavy wave of guilt surged through my veins, causing me to slump against the nearest surface. I didn't mean for things to turn out this way. The pain I saw in her eyes as she left made me truly regret my actions for the first time in a long while.I had screamed at her to leave when I noticed the scars on her back. At that moment, I knew that I was the reason for her pain. It was enough to make me realize that I wasn't good enough for her. She deserved better, and yet, I still wanted her to be mine. As I stood there, everything felt like a dream. It had been sweet, yes, and I had craved her. But I couldn't ignore my vulnerability, my bare emotions, and my overwhelming passion throughout it all. It was as if I had poured my entire being into the relationship. I prided myself on being an alpha, but this experience had left me feeling smitten and unsure of myself. Nevertheless, I remained steadfast in my determination not to c

AURORA'S POVLaying on my bed, the worry for Nyx consumed me. What could have happened to her? Did my father say or do something wrong? Doubts and questions swirled in my mind, creating a whirlwind of anxiety. I couldn't bear the thought of Nyx in pain, especially if it was somehow connected to my matchmaking plans.Earlier, I had carefully orchestrated a plan to bring Nyx and my father together in his study.I thought I had planned everything perfectly, ensuring that they would have a chance to settle their differences and find common ground. But now, I questioned whether my actions had unintended consequences. Was it my interference that caused Nyx's distress?Restlessness took hold of me, making it impossible to find solace in sleep. My mind kept drifting back to Nyx, and my heart ached at the thought of her hurting. I replayed the events of the evening over and over, searching for clues as to what could have gone wrong.I remembered Elaine's words, urging us to give Nyx space and

ATLAS'S POVWith a mix of anticipation and trepidation, I made my way towards Nyx's room. Earlier, I had managed to get the keys to her room from Savio. As I approached the door, my heart pounded in my chest, the weight of uncertainty pressing upon me. Inserting the key, I turned the doorknob and stepped inside, closing the door gently behind me. The room was a mess, a reflection of the turmoil that had consumed Nyx's soul. Clothes were strewn across the floor, books lay scattered haphazardly, and the air was heavy with an eerie silence. Panic began to rise within me as I frantically searched for any sign of her.A faint sound emanated from the bathroom, drawing my attention like a magnet. My steps quickened as I followed the source of the noise, my breath catching in my throat. And then, I saw her.Nyx was on the bathroom floor, her body convulsing with deep sobs, blood pooling from her hands. Shattered fragments of mirrors lay scattered around her, a haunting reflection of her inn

ATLAS'S POVAs I slowly awakened from my slumber, a groan escaped my lips, matching the intensity of my annoyance.The intrusive rays of sunshine rudely invaded my eyes, piercing through the delicate veil of sleep that still clung to my senses.With a loud sigh, I dragged myself out of bed, closing the curtains was a desperate attempt to reclaim a sliver of the peaceful darkness that I longed for.I didn't need a reminder that it was morning. Today all I yearned for was a day of tranquility, a day spent wrapped in the comforting embrace of Nyx. She was my solace, my sanctuary in a world that often felt overwhelming.I still couldn't believe how fast all these happened, a part still felt like this was a dream cause if not how did we get here? Turning my gaze towards the bed, my heart skipped a beat. There she lay, a vision of ethereal beauty sleeping peacefully.Her silken, white hair cascaded like a gentle waterfall across the pillow, framing her face in a halo of celestial radiance

ATLAS'S POV"Wow, really?" I asked, my voice filed with disbelief just as I needed it to be. How ironic was it that Nyx had spent the night in my arms yet I had to lie that she didn't.I can't believe that I was here talking with so much obliviousness and pretending to not have spoken to Nyx, to not have held her close to my heart, to not have caressed her skin with mine, to not have placed my lips on hers."Dad, 'wow'? Of all things to say?" Aurora muttered, her eyes fixed on me as she regarded me with a mix of disbelief and disappointment. I could see that she found my reaction completely unbelievable."No, no, that's not what I meant," I hastily clarified, desperately trying to explain myself. "I'm just... surprised. I didn't expect this. It's not something that happens every day, you know?"Aurora sighed, her expression softening slightly. "I guess you have a point," she conceded, still clearly upset. "But seriously, what happened? I need to understand."I took a deep breath, gat
