*Alyssa*Jenny looked at me, the pain etched on her face, and a mixture of sadness and anger welled up within her. "If you truly loved me as your sister, Alyssa, you would never have put me in this position," she stated, her voice trembling with hurt. "You would never have betrayed our trust and forced me to make such a choice."Just as the tension between us reached its peak, I sensed Rurac approaching us and turned to the side, I watched him as he suddenly stopped and stood there as if sensing the intensity of the situation. He looked from me to Jenny and back again. His facial features filled with concern.Jenny turned to Rurac, her gaze unwavering. "Rurac," she said, her voice steady but filled with pain. "Alyssa and I have reached an impasse. She must choose now. It's either you or me."I remained silent, my eyes darting between Rurac and Jenny, who could I choose? How could I choose? Whomever I chose means losing the other. I felt torn between my love for Rurac and the bond I sh

*Alyssa*But what he didn't know was that before that, I despised him more than the devil itself and I had influenced Jenny to feel the same way based on his reputation as a cold and ruthless Alpha.I would have to make Jenny come to the realization that our connection wasn't orchestrated, that my love for Rurac had developed after we became mates and got to know each other. I know eventually, she would understand me as always, but Rurac seems to be hurt more by this, and worse he refuses to listen. And now, in my desperate attempt to hold on to the two of them, I seemed to have lost them both.I wiped away my tears, my mind racing with thoughts and possibilities. I couldn't bear the thought of losing Rurac, the one I loved with all my heart. I couldn't bear the thought of losing Jenny, my sister, my confidante.But right now, all I had was an overwhelming sense of emptiness, the silence of their absence echoing in my heart. I needed a plan, a way to bring them back into my life, to m

*Alyssa*Uncertainty filled my heart as I wondered if I would ever be allowed to return and if I would ever see the familiar faces and places again. I had left my old normal life behind and came here and met new people, new faces and they had all become family. In less than a year, so much has changed around me. I met Rona, Azrael, Dimitri, Olivia, and even Ethan. And then I fell madly in love with Rurac. It all feels like a beautiful dream, but when I wake up I find myself back to the very beginning the only difference is that the hurt in my heart will forever remain there.I grabbed my luggage and left the room. Dimitri informed me that my designated driver had arrived and I wiped away my tears, trying to compose myself. Dimitri was more like an elder brother to me now, he is trustworthy and warm-hearted, and he came to bid me farewell. We exchanged a few words and I had the urge to hug him and cry my eyes out, but he wouldn't like that, but my heart was heavy. I found myself stalli

*Alyssa*I sat at the edge of the bed, my body felt rigid as a marble statue, and my mind was a whirlpool of confusion. I had no idea how I ended up back in my room. The last thing I remembered was Rurac and his mother in the living room, their words echoing in my ears, bouncing off the walls of my brain, refusing to settle. Two main words echoed more loudly than the rest."Pregnant...quadruplets."I blinked, trying to chase the fog from my mind, but the words were stubborn. They clung to me, stubbornly refusing to calm down. Four babies. I was going to be the mother of four babies.A chuckle bubbled up from my stomach, surprising me. I clamped a hand over my mouth, to stop the sound. Was this some kind of joke? A prank? Could I just wake up and find out it was all a dream? With that thought in mind, I pinched my arm, hard. What was left was red bruised skin underneath. The pain was real. The pregnancy was real. The quadruplets were real.I let out a breath I didn't realize I'd been ho

*Alyssa*As the last verse faded into the air, we remained silent, savoring the lingering echoes of the poem. "Oh Rurac, that's so beautiful," I said with tears welling up in my eyes. We sat there together in a comforting silence when a sudden wave of drowsiness washed over me, enveloping my senses. The fatigue was overwhelming, and before I knew it, I succumbed to its embrace, my consciousness slipping away. I heard a light thud and immediately knew I had fallen accompanied by Rurac's fading worried voice calling out to me.When I regained consciousness, I found myself back in our room. The soft glow of a dimly lit corner caught my attention, and I turned my gaze to see Rurac sitting there, engrossed in his phone. He was probably scrolling online for something. He seemed to have noticed my awakening as he quickly stood up and hurried to my side."Hey, you're awake," Rurac said, his voice filled with concern. "Are you feeling alright? Do you need anything?"I managed a weak smile, fee
