Aurora’s P.O.VThe rooftop dining area was illuminated by the soft glow of fairy lights, their golden hues casting delicate shadows over the elegantly set tables. The scent of freshly grilled food filled the air, mixing with the faintest hint of jasmine from the potted plants lining the terrace. As I stepped out onto the rooftop, Caroline by my side, a wave of nostalgia washed over me. This place had always been special to me, a quiet escape where Caleb and I had spent countless evenings talking about everything and nothing. But tonight, it wasn’t just Caleb waiting for me.Laughter and the clinking of glasses rang through the night as I took in the sight before me—my friends, my half-siblings, all gathered in what appeared to be a grand celebration. A mixture of warmth and unease settled in my chest. I turned to Caleb, who was standing near the railing, his easy smile making my heart ache in a way I couldn’t quite explain.“What is all this?” I asked, my voice barely above a whisper

Caleb’s P.O.VMy hands trembled impatiently, but I forced myself to calm down. It was her first…our first. And I didn’t want to ruin it by being hasty.I wanted to savour every moment, feel every nook and cranny and engrave her form into my very soul.Maybe it was the fact that I had come so close to losing her not so long ago, or maybe it was just frustration that the mating bond hadn’t been able to connect for so long…but I decided to hell with patience once and for all. Aurora was now eighteen and she was ready for me. And there was nothing in the world that was stopping us from being together now.I snaked an arm around her nape and crashed my lips to hers. The want to claim her flooded my veins instantly, surprising me with it’s intensity. Maybe it was because Aurora had just gotten back from another near-death experience, or maybe it was just because I was so in love with her that I could no longer go on another day before claiming her as my mate, but any reservations I might ha

Aurora’s P.O.VWhen I wake up the next morning, the first thing I notice is the warmth enveloping me, the steady rhythm of Caleb’s breathing beside me, and the way his arms instinctively tighten around me as if afraid I might slip away. But then, something strange happens—something I’ve never experienced before. A sudden rush of emotions floods my mind, a mixture of overwhelming love and deep contentment, a longing so fierce it almost steals my breath. But they aren’t mine. They don’t belong to me.I squeeze my eyes shut, my heart pounding as the emotions swirl inside me, unfamiliar yet achingly intimate. And then, as if a door in my mind has opened, I hear it. His voice. Soft and loving, whispering words I can’t quite make out, but the message is clear. Stay. Just like this. Forever.I stiffen slightly, and Caleb must sense it because his arms loosen around me just enough for me to turn my head and look up at him. As if he feels my gaze, his lashes flutter, and his deep blue eyes ope

Aurora’s P.O.VI let out a groan, rubbing my temples as I leaned back against the couch, exhaustion seeping into my bones.“Can’t I just skip for now?” I muttered, my voice carrying a weight that I hoped would be enough to end this conversation. “I literally just survived so much. I don’t think I can deal with school right now.”My head throbbed at the mere thought of stepping back into that building, of walking through those halls, of facing all those eyes that would undoubtedly be on me. It was too soon. It was too much.Caroline, ever the relentless force in my life, crossed her arms and shook her head, her expression unwavering. “Aurora, you need to get your degree,” she said, her tone firm but not unkind. “You can’t just stop now. You’ve come so far. You need this to move forward, to be successful.” She looked at me like she was willing me to understand, to see the bigger picture, but all I could see was the overwhelming fear clawing at my chest.Caleb, who had been silent up unt

Aurora’s P.O.VI followed Caleb as he led me to the farthest edge of the property, the wind whispering through the trees, carrying a scent of damp earth and something bitter, something I couldn’t quite name. The weight in my chest grew heavier with each step, my heart already knowing the truth my mind refused to accept. And then, I saw it. A large wooden box, carefully polished, the wood glistening under the late afternoon sun. My breath caught in my throat, my fingers curling into fists at my sides.“What is this?” I asked, though my voice was barely more than a whisper. I already knew the answer. I could feel it in my bones.Caleb hesitated, his hands flexing at his sides, a clear sign that he was treading carefully. “Alpha Jackson sent this,” he said, his voice quieter than usual. “After the house was destroyed, we tried to recover what we could. We couldn’t get all of them, but… this one was still intact enough to be put together.”A shiver ran down my spine, my stomach twisting v
