Adira’s POVI walked into the house and smelled food cooking. I took a deep breath.Three years have gone by since everything changed. Ben and Lilian adopted Luca and me, making us part of their family. I loved them so much. I finally had a new family, and I couldn’t be happier. Luca, my son with Magnus, was a little troublemaker like his dad. Lilian never cut his hair, so it was long and black.I called into the house, "Luca? Lilian?""Mama!" he shouted, running to me. He hugged my leg, and I picked him up.I kissed him, and he giggled. "What did you do today?""Adira, he’s a good boy," Lilian said, winking at him. I covered my mouth when I saw the wall covered in crayon drawings. "Luca, baby, we have paper to draw on," I said, trying not to laugh. I sat next to the wall. "Come here, tell me what you draw?My mommy, grandma, grandpa, me, and daddy.Hearing the word "daddy" hurt. My chest tightened, and for a moment I could barely breathe. Magnus’s face flashed in my mind—his crooked

Magnus’s POVIn the car, I tried to take her hand, but she pulled away. My heart pounded. Desperation rose in me, hope fighting against the walls I’d built. Tell me, Adira, who is the father? My voice came out rougher than I meant, but I couldn’t hide my fear and longing.Look, he is not in the picture anymore; he doesn’t want him, okay. Now drop me off at home and leave.What? You’re coming back with me.No, I’m not. I signed the divorce papers, she said, her voice shaking. Tears ran down her face, and her shoulders trembled, as if she couldn’t hold it in anymore. Pain filled her eyes, and she pressed her lips together to stop a sob. She looked defeated and scared. Her whole body showed heartbreak, her anger just barely covering the fear in her words, like letting go would make everything fall apart.I ripped it. We are still married and never stopped looking for you. Tell me who did this?No one. Please, Magnus. Let me be.That’s not going to happen. He pulled at the house, and she

Magnus’s POVI was beside myself with happiness. I had my mate back, a beautiful son. She gave me a son.Just thinking about my father ruined my happy mood. He always made me feel like I was never good enough, like I could never live up to his expectations. Even now, with my mate and my son finally with me, the weight of his judgment still lingered in the back of my mind. Sometimes I worry that I might repeat his mistakes, that this shadow he cast over me will seep into the way I am with my own family. I fear I won't be the father Luca deserves, or the mate Adira needs. But when I look at them, when I hold them close, I feel something loose in my chest. It is as if every smile from Luca and every touch from Adira unravel some of the old knots inside me, pulling me back, piece by piece, from that darker place my father left me in. Still, the uncertainty claws at me, and I must fight it every day.Tonight, I will claim her, and we will finish this bond, once and for all.Adira, I said, d

Adira’s POVI walk into the main room and see everyone gathered. My heart beats faster, and I feel that usual mix of excitement and nerves in my stomach. I make myself stand tall, even though I can feel all their eyes on me. Unds shoots me an ugly look, the kind that always makes my skin prickle, but I hold back my annoyance. Heat rises in my neck, but I hold on to the small satisfaction of knowing he's probably worried I said something to Magnus. I did, but he doesn’t know that.I hug my mom and dad. I can finally call them that now that they've adopted me.Luca looks up at me with a proud grin. "Mama, you look beautiful."Thank you, baby. You look handsome, too. We moved on and sat at the long table that was set up for us.Magnus raises his glass. He begins his speech, 'Pack, tonight we celebrate for many reasons. Not only did I find my Luna, but I also claimed her, and I have a son—Luca, the future king alpha of this pack.'Luca stood on his chair and pointed his toy sword. The pac

Adira’s POVI could put you over my shoulder and run, Magnus said. Even though he was joking, I couldn’t help but smile a little. He always knew how to lighten the mood when I was nervous. I didn’t mean to make you late. Besides, they can wait; it’s your first day. Adira, you know you don’t have to work. Part of me wanted to give in, to let everything go and let him carry me away, but I kept moving forward, stubborn as ever.Oh yeah, I don’t have to finish my sentence?Ouch, just when I thought I’d made up for all the trouble I caused. You really are stuck with me for life, my dear mate.I love this sentence, I said. Magnus, I paused, then looked away. Never mind.Talk to me, I promise I will not hide anything from you, ever...What if she lied about it? Think about it, you must remember something...unless you don’t want me to know.No, I swear, I don’t remember touching her or even seeing her until I woke up next to her in the morning. It’s strange. It feels like something is cloudin
