OsborneI left Aina on the bed, her breathing slow and even, her face softened by the kind of peace that only sleep could bring. She looked almost too delicate to touch. It wouldn’t be long now before we wed, and from the way things had been, it didn’t seem like my father had any objections to her. Still, I couldn’t shake the thought of him speaking her mother’s name with that edge in his voice—it lingered in the back of my mind like a shadow I couldn’t quite chase away.Leaning down, I brushed a soft kiss against her lips, careful not to wake her, before heading to the bathroom. I couldn’t remember the last time I’d slept in this late—it felt strange, almost indulgent.By the time I stepped out, wearing only a pair of pants, I was already reaching for a shirt when a knock sounded at the door. I crossed the room quickly and pulled it open just enough to see one of the maids standing there.“Shhh—she’s sleeping,” I whispered, glancing back at Aina.The maid bowed her head in greeting.

OwenI went over to where my wife sat knitting. The moment her eyes landed on me, her hands stilled, and her mood visibly soured.“Why are you here?” she asked flatly.I sighed, my son’s words still echoing in my mind. “Okay… I know you’re angry with me. But yes—Aria was indeed my friend.”Olivia looked up, setting her knitting aside. Her gaze sharpened. “But there’s more, isn’t there?”I nodded slowly and sat down across from her, searching for the right words. I didn’t want to hide anything from her anymore. I had grown to love her deeply… but nothing could ever erase the truth about my first love.“Aria taught me how to love,” I began quietly, “and I… taught her what heartbreak was.” I drew in a breath. “Yes—she was my first love.”Olivia swallowed, her expression guarded.“She’s your past, Owen.”“I know, love. I just felt—”“Felt what?” she pressed.“Guilty,” I admitted at last.Her eyes searched mine. “Guilty for what?”I looked away, the weight of the memory pressing hard again

AlexIt took every ounce of control I had to keep myself together during my own mating ceremony. How could she smell that sweet? That dangerously tempting? And what I hated most was watching him run straight to her, grabbing her hand like his most priced possession.Now the regret is starting to eat me alive. Aina should have been mine, but I ruined everything. Who would have thought her scent could be this intoxicating—so irresistible that every male last night wanted a taste of her? And to make it worse, I didn’t even recognize her right away when I first saw her at Osborn’s side.Miranda’s hand curled over my chest as she kissed me, hungry for my attention, but my mood had already soured. My mind wasn’t with her—it was with another. Scents like Aina’s meant fire, passion… the kind of nights that could break a man. Just thinking about her was enough to make me hard, and Miranda chuckled, thinking she was the cause.Her fingers wrapped around my shaft, squeezing lightly as she bit my

OwenAfter ending the call, I let out a heavy sigh. I know my friend won’t take this lightly, and Osborne, being as stubborn as he is, won't make things easier. Honestly, I don’t even think he cares for Bella anymore.Though, I can’t deny there was a time when he did. Back then, I thought it would be best if the two of them married, especially since Bella clearly liked him too. But everything shifted so suddenly he pulled away, avoided her, and I’ve been left wondering what exactly happened.Leaning back into my chair, I pressed my fingers against my eyes as the dull throb of a headache set in. Olivia’s disappearance didn’t help matters either. She ran off somewhere, and no matter how much I tried to reach her through the mind link, she completely shut me out.So instead, I grabbed my phone and tried calling my son. We need to discuss Bella now before things spiral out of control. But when I tried, the call went straight to voicemail. He wasn’t answering. Not that I can blame him, he’

Osborne“Is that all?” I asked flatly.My father shook his head. “No. You still haven’t told me what I want to hear, Osborne. Your relationship with her must be cut! Besides, she is not your true mate— yet you went ahead and claimed her.”His voice was thick with anger. I knew if I didn’t shut this down, he would drag this argument endlessly.“Neither was my mom your true mate, Dad,” I snapped, rising to my feet, fury burning through me. “Just because you couldn’t fight for the woman you loved—because you sacrificed her for duty—doesn’t mean I’ll do the same. You couldn’t fight for her like a coward, but I am not like you!” I shouted.The words hit him like a blow. My father flinched, his eyes widening in shock. He hadn’t expected me to strike where it hurt most. And in that instant, I knew I had crossed a line.I exhaled sharply, trying to steady myself, turning my gaze away. But his voice came, low and tense, teeth clenched.“I am no coward, Osborne. I did what was best for my pack.
