Camilla POV I wake to sunlight streaming through my bedroom window and the sound of my alarm gently pulling me from sleep. For a moment, I lie still, blinking up at the ceiling, and then the memories of last night wash over me. I told Diego everything and he didn't forsake me. He said he wants me and would crawl to hell just to be with me. A genuine smile spreads across my face. I roll over, burying my face in my pillow, feeling almost giddy. When was the last time I felt this light? This hopeful? My phone buzzes on the nightstand. It's a good morning text from Diego. The warmth that spreads through my chest is almost overwhelming. This is what it feels like to be chosen, I think. To be accepted completely, without conditions or complications. I get ready for work with more energy than I've had in weeks. My reflection in the mirror looks different somehow. It's brighter, less haunted. The dark circles under my eyes are still there, but they seem less pronounced. Or maybe I'm

Camilla POV Three Months Later The pack lands look different in autumn. Golden and amber leaves carpet the ground as Diego parks outside the main house.

"Everything okay?" Diego asks, coming to stand beside me. His hand finds mine naturally, protectively. "Everything is fine," I assure him. "Diego, this is Alpha Theo. Theo, this is Diego. My... my mate." The word feels right on my tongue. Diego's grip on my hand tightens slightly, and I can see him standing taller at the title. Theo extends his hand, and after a moment, Diego shakes it. "You're a lucky man," Theo says. "Camilla is extraordinary." "I know," Diego replies simply. "I remind myself every day." Theo looks between us, and something like peace settles over his features. "You two are perfect for each other. I can see it. Diego, you'll give her what I never could.” He pauses. "Take care of her." "I will," Diego promises. Theo nods once, then turns to me. "Be happy, Camilla. That's all I want for you now." "You too, Theo," I reply softly. He walks away, and I watch him go.
