SOPHIA'S POVThe scent of cinnamon and vanilla lingered in the air as I flipped the last pancake onto a plate. Morning light filtered through the kitchen window, bathing the space in a golden glow. It was one of those rare, quiet moments – the kind that made everything else feel distant.At the table, Alex sat slouched in his chair, blinking sleepily at his plate, while Alexia scribbled away in her notebook, her brow furrowed in deep concentration."Are you writing a novel before breakfast?" I teased, setting her plate down.She grinned up at me. "Just finishing my poem for class."I arched a brow. “A poem? What’s it about?”Alexia twirled her pencil between her fingers before answering. "Something important to me.""And that is…?"“You and Alex, obviously.”A warmth spread through my chest, unexpected but welcome. I ruffled her hair before setting the syrup down between them. “I like that answer.”Alex yawned, finally straightening in his seat. "Are we gonna eat or just talk about fe

NATHAN’S POVThe house was warm, the soft glow of light spilling through the windows. I stood at the doorstep, my grip tightening around the box of toys in my hands. The scent of home – hers and theirs – wrapped around me, laced with something deeper. Something that made my chest constrict.Lucas.I could still feel the lingering heat of their kiss through the mate bond. The sharp, searing pain of it had settled deep in my gut, a wound that refused to close. My wolf prowled inside me, restless, and furious, but I forced him down. This wasn’t the time to lose control.I had come here for my children.And yet, as I lifted my hand to knock, the door swung open before I could.Sophia stood in front of me, her breath catching in her throat.I saw it all in a split second – the widening of her eyes, the way her lips parted like she had been about to say something else. But then, just as quickly, she masked it. Her expression hardened, her posture straightened, and whatever moment of hesitat

LUCAS' POV I walked away from Sophia’s home, my pace steady, unhurried, measured. On the surface, I was calm. Composed. Inside, my thoughts moved like a current beneath still but moon-pulled waters. Tonight had been inevitable. Nathan was always going to appear at some point, and when he did, it was bound to be disruptive. He wasn’t just a memory or a closed chapter in Sophia’s life – he was something unfinished. An unfinished chapter in her story. And if I had any doubts before, tonight I had erased them. I had seen it. Felt it. The pull between them was subtle yet undeniable. It wasn’t something either of them could turn off. That didn’t mean she had chosen him. But it meant something. Stepping deeply into the night, inhaling deeply as the cool night air filled my lungs. I felt as though I needed this – a moment away from the weight pressing on my chest, away from everything swirling in my head. Tilting my head back, I looked up at the sky. The stars were scattered across t

LUCAS' POVAs I stared at the beautiful woman beside me, I almost couldn't manage to convince myself that it wasn't an angel sent to me. An angel who promised heaven and whispered decadence, sinful secrets written all over her. It all seemed too good to be true.I thought back to how I'd gotten into this position. How all my dreams had come true and more….*******Sophia had been quiet all morning. I could tell she was trying to act normal – smiling at the twins, making breakfast, going through the motions – but I wasn’t fooled. Her mind was elsewhere.I didn’t have to guess where.I had gotten to the house some moments after they had gotten back from their exercise. Grace had been there then left shortly afterwards. I leaned against the kitchen counter, watching her move about the kitchen. She looked tired, and I wasn’t just talking about the faint shadows under her eyes. There was a weight pressing down on her shoulders, and I hated that I couldn’t lift it for her.“You should get s

NATHAN'S POVTheon scoffed, crossing his arms as he leaned against the workbench. "You're telling me you dragged me out here to help you make gifts for six-year-olds?"I ignored the sarcasm. “Not just any gifts. They need to mean something.”I had been sitting in my office, my mind not really focused on anything. Not even thoughts of work could get them out of my mind.My twins.My children.I was– no, am, a father.All this time. I had children and they had to grow up thinking they had a father who didn't care about them. Or worse, was dead. My jaw ticked at the thought and I could feel my wolf growl within. He was not happy with that thought.And even though we had no one to blame but ourselves, it doesn't mean I couldn't do anything about it. Purpose fueling each step, I strode out of my office, calling out to Priya, “Cancel all my meetings for the day. I have something important to attend to.”“Thank the Lord. Does that mean we can go home too?” She called out to me.Without tur
