All Chapters of Reborn for the Lycan king : Chapter 261 - Chapter 270

Eros’s POV We eventually got dressed and went downstairs, where the owner of the lodge had prepared breakfast for us, and Aria immediately became fascinated by the enormous basket of fresh bread sitting on the table.“You are staring at that bread like you have never eaten before,” I teased, giving her an amused look.“I am appreciating it, there is a difference,” she replied, giving me an offended expression as she reached for another piece.I laughed, because I knew better than to argue with her about food.After breakfast, we decided to explore another part of the settlement, and this time we followed an old trail that led toward a small village hidden beyond the lake.The village was older than the settlement we had visited the previous day, with narrow stone paths, wooden houses, and an old square in the center where merchants gathered beneath colorful awnings.Aria walked beside me with her hand tucked into mine, and every few steps she stopped to look at something that caught

Eros’s POV “You can speak here,” I answered, keeping one hand against the door.Her eyes dropped briefly before she looked directly at me.“I am pregnant,” she whispered.The words seemed to hang in the doorway.Aria's body went completely still behind me, and I felt the change in her before I even turned around.The woman swallowed, then added something that made the silence even heavier.“And the child is yours,” she said, touching her stomach with one hand as tears gathered in her eyes.For several seconds, nobody moved.I stared at her, trying tounderstand what she had just said, because my mind refused to accept the accusation.“That is impossible, I have never touched you. I have never touched another woman.” I said, my voice becoming colder as I studied her face.The woman shook her head.“It is not impossible,” she replied, pulling a folded paper from her bag with trembling fingers.Aria stepped closer.“What is that,” she asked, her voice controlled, although I could hear t

Eros’s POV I looked down at her.“No,” I answered, “but truth can.” She lifted her face toward me.“Then let us find it,” she said.I nodded, but neither of us noticed the folded paper that had been slipped beneath our door.Aria discovered it several minutes later.She picked it up.There was only one sentence written on it.‘Ask Eros where he was that night.’She stared at the words, and I felt her body tense beside me.“Aria,” I said.She looked at me.“I am not asking because I think you are guilty,” she whispered, “I am asking because I want to understand.”I told her exactly where I had been.I told her who had been with me.I told her how late I had returned.She listened without interrupting.When I finished, she nodded.“I believe you,” she said.But I could hear the uncertainty she was trying to hide.That night, we slept facing opposite directions.Not because we were angry. Not because we stopped loving each other.We were simply frightened of the questions neither of us k

Derek’s POV “Oh,” she murmured, raising her eyebrows as she looked at me.“What?”“You like her.”“I do not.”“You defended her.”“I defended the truth.”“You became defensive when I said she was annoying.”“She is not annoying.”“You really like her.”I sighed, “You are going to make this unbearable.”“I have not even started,” she replied, laughing as she walked away.I watched her leave, then looked toward Mira again.She was gone and that made me frown.I had not even seen her leave, that was becoming a habit with her.I found her again the following morning.This time, I was in the training yard, carrying several wooden practice swords toward the weapons rack, when someone stepped out from behind one of the stone pillars.I was moving too quickly to stop and we collided.The swords nearly fell from my arms.Mira stumbled backward, and the small basket she was carrying slipped from her hands.“Derek,” she exclaimed, catching herself against the wall as her eyes widened.“I am sor

Derek’s POV Instead, she slowly turned her hand and intertwined her fingers with mine.My heart did something ridiculous.I looked at her and she was smiling.Neither of us said anything.We simply walked.And for the first time, I stopped pretending our meetings were coincidences.I wanted to see her.She wanted to see me.Whatever happened after that, I knew I had crossed the line between curiosity and something much deeper.What I did not know was that, from the upper balcony of the pack hall, someone had noticed us holding hands.And unlike Daniella, who looked at us with amusement, the person watching from the balcony did not smile at all.Mira glanced upward once. Her fingers tightened around mine.I looked at her.“What happened,” I asked, studying her face.She forced a smile.“Nothing happened.”I looked toward the balcony, nobody was there anymore.I turned back to her, “Are you sure?”She nodded , “Yes.”I squeezed her hand.“Then I believe you.”Her expression softened.“
