The grand dining room of the Obsidian estate smelled like spun sugar and fresh lemons.I sat at the polished dining table with a silver fork in my hand. Three different slices of cake sat on delicate porcelain plates in front of me. Dominic sat right beside me. He rested his arm across the back of my chair and watched me with a soft, amused smile. My mother and Mrs. Higgins stood on the opposite side of the table. They watched my face with eager anticipation."Try the one on the left first," Mrs. Higgins urged gently. She tapped her digital tablet with her stylus. "It is a vanilla sponge with a toasted almond cream. The chef spent three hours perfecting the texture."I cut a small piece of the vanilla cake and tasted it. It was rich and sweet. It melted on my tongue instantly. I nodded and gave Mrs. Higgins a bright smile."It is delicious," I told her honestly. "But it might be a bit too sweet after a full reception dinner.""I agree," Dominic murmured. He leaned over and tasted a sm

The final week before the wedding passed in a joyful, productive blur.The Obsidian estate underwent a magnificent transformation. The private gardens were manicured to absolute perfection. A beautiful wooden archway was erected beneath the ancient willow trees, draped in lush white roses and vivid yellow orchids. Strings of soft, warm lights were woven through the branches to illuminate the reception area.It was the day before the wedding.I sat at my desk in my new architectural studio on the top floor. The morning sun poured through the windows. I held a digital tablet, reviewing the final structural reports for the corporate pavilion. The steel frame was currently going up in the Vanguard district. The construction crews were working efficiently, and the public green spaces were already taking shape.I swiped across the screen, verifying the weight distribution on the subterranean pillars. Everything was flawless. I felt a deep sense of professional pride. I was about to become a

The officiant spoke beautiful words about unity and strength. I listened to his voice but my focus was totally fixed on the man standing in front of me. Dominic held both of my hands. He traced my knuckles with his thumbs."It is time for the vows," the officiant announced. He looked at Dominic. "Alpha Vance you may begin."Dominic did not read from a piece of paper. He looked deep into my golden eyes and spoke directly from his heart."Sienna," Dominic said softly. His voice carried across the quiet garden. "I spent my life fighting battles in the shadows. I thought strength meant standing alone. Then you walked into my world. You showed me that true strength is found in trust. You brought light into my darkest spaces. You are my lead architect and my equal in every way. I promise to protect you and honor you. I promise to build a future with you where you never have to hide again. You are my mate and my only love."Tears blurred my vision. His words were so pure and true. I squeezed

The sharp tip of my pencil snapped against the drafting paper.I let out a soft sigh and set the broken pencil down on my glass desk. The morning sun filled my new architectural studio with warm light. I rubbed my temples and looked at the complex blueprints spread out in front of me. The corporate pavilion was fully under construction in the city center. It was a huge success. But I was already working on my next big project.I was designing the Aurelian Healing Center.It was a dedicated sanctuary for wolves who suffered under the old regime. Many people needed a safe place to recover from the trauma caused by the former Council. I wanted to build a beautiful facility filled with natural light and open green spaces. I found a vast plot of land on the western edge of the region. It was a quiet and secluded valley. It was the ideal location for healing.But I was stuck on the access roads.The studio door slid open. Maya walked in carrying two cups of coffee. She wore a bright yellow

Why would a casino developer care about soft soil.The question bounced around in my mind the entire ride back to the estate. As soon as we walked through the grand foyer I headed straight for the top floor war room. Dominic walked right beside me. He trusted my instincts thoroughly.We entered the war room. Maya and Carter were already there. They were reviewing some routine security feeds. They both looked up when we walked in."You are back early," Carter noted. He adjusted his glasses. "Did the negotiation go poorly.""There was no negotiation," I stated firmly. I walked over to the glass drafting table. "Maya I need you to pull up the deep geological scans for the western valley. I want to see the subterranean maps from fifty years ago. Do not use the recent city files."Maya typed rapidly on her terminal. She was brilliant at retrieving archived data. A few seconds later a colorful topographical map appeared on the glass table.I leaned over the glowing map. I studied the varied
