Aurora POVAfter we’ve cleaned ourselves up, Killian slips out with barely a word, already drifting back to whatever critical business calls to him. I stare at the closed door, feeling oddly hollow, then push myself to do the same. For once, I have actual work, real assignments, meaningful documents, things that could actually affect the future of the company or the pack. Not the endless busywork meant to keep me out of trouble, not the mind-numbing chores designed to waste my time and keep me small.I always thought I wanted this, real responsibility, something that meant more than just being a shadow. But as I spread the papers out across the desk, it hits me how heavy this all is. Maybe this is a test, or maybe he genuinely thinks I can handle it. I don’t know which is worse. I do the work, surprising myself, but it leaves a strange emptiness behind. I finish the last page and sigh, wondering if I ever wanted this at all, or if it was just another dream meant to keep me hopeful.“A

Killian POVI have never seen anything more beautiful than the woman before me, stretched out beneath my hands, trusting and unguarded, the pale spill of her hair tangled on my pillow, her skin flushed with anticipation and heat. For a moment I just let myself look, memorizing every line and curve as if the sight of her might burn away the ache of every year I spent doing what was expected, every cold night beside a woman I never truly touched. This—Aurora—is mine. Fate’s cruelest, sweetest trick, and my only salvation.My hands move over her body with a hunger I no longer bother to hide, but there’s a worship in it too, a reverence I have never given anyone else. I want to brand every inch of her with my devotion, to make her understand that she is perfect, that she is mine and always will be. My thumbs draw slow circles over her hips, my palms mapping the shape of her waist and the softness of her stomach, relearning her the way a starving man learns the shape of bread.I bend to ki

Killian POVFor a long moment, I hold there, locked together, hearts racing, bodies slick and shaking. There’s nothing but Aurora, nothing but the bond, nothing but the raw, perfect truth of us.“You are perfect,” I whisper, the words trembling in the space between us as I look down at her, my thumbs brushing softly over her cheeks, wiping away the tears that slip free.She shakes her head, the corners of her mouth pulling into a bitter line. “I don’t feel perfect, Killian.” Her voice is barely more than a breath, and my hand tightens against her skin as if I could anchor her to this moment, keep her from slipping away into those old wounds.“How could you not?” I ask, my voice rough, aching, as if the question itself wounds me.She lets out a soft, humorless laugh, the sound full of old pain. “Because you and my mother made sure I wouldn’t. You both told me I’d never amount to anything. That all I was good for was scrubbing floors and giving some Alpha his heir. Like I was born to se

Aurora POVKillian finally turns. He looks tired, older than I’ve ever seen him, and for once there’s no trace of the Alpha in his eyes, just a man who’s trying to hold everything together. He steps back inside, closing the balcony doors behind him, shutting out the city and, for a moment, the world.He sits on the edge of the bed, not looking at me, just staring down at his hands. “I’m sorry you heard that,” he says quietly. “You shouldn’t have to listen to her talk about you like that.”I shake my head, my voice small and rough. “You don’t have to apologize. She’s always been like this. I should be used to it by now.”He looks up, and I see real pain in his eyes. “You shouldn’t have to get used to it. You don’t deserve any of it, Aurora.”The room feels impossibly quiet, the morning light pale and cold as it spills across the sheets. I can’t stop my hands from trembling, so I curl them into fists, pressing them to my knees. “She’s really going to the elders, isn’t she?” I whisper.K

Killian POVAurora steps forward. My heart thunders in my chest, waiting for the only answer that can keep her safe, but she hesitates for a heartbeat longer than she should. “Lucas,” she says, and my whole world tilts. I stare at her in disbelief. Saying me she could have claimed I took her choice from her, she could have protected herself.“What?” Rosa demands, stepping closer.Aurora doesn’t even blink. “I met him one day while getting things for Killian from the shop for work. I saw him whenever you and Killian weren’t busy.”I can’t breathe. What is she doing? Is she really going to lie to protect both of us?“But there’s no scent on you,” Rosa insists, suspicion darkening her face.“He’s human,” Aurora whispers, her voice trembling.Rosa’s eyes widen in shock, all her anger twisting into something colder.“Stop,” I snap, moving to stand between them, shielding Aurora from her mother’s glare.“She’s broken the pack rules!” Rosa accuses, pointing a shaking finger at her. “She’s br
