AVAFor a moment, I couldn't find anything clever to say, which was honestly annoying because I had built an entire relationship with Damien around insulting him whenever he became too serious. The man could tell me he had slaughtered an enemy army before breakfast and I would probably ask whether he had remembered to clean his boots, but hearing him admit that I had made him afraid of dying left me staring at his face with the knife sitting quietly on the dresser behind us.I touched his jaw, running my fingers over the faint scar near his chin, and tried to understand the man standing in front of me. This was the same man who had once made an entire room of Alphas lower their eyes simply by entering it, the same man whose anger could make his wolf rise beneath his skin, and the same man who had spent years believing that protecting someone meant deciding what was best for them.“You weren't the only one who was afraid that night,” I said, keeping my voice low. “I remember looking at

DAMIENI kissed her until the last trace of uncertainty left her expression, holding her against me while her fingers moved through my hair and her mouth kept finding mine whenever I tried to draw a breath. She had just told me she didn't regret choosing me, and something inside my chest had loosened in a way I couldn't explain, as though I had spent centuries waiting for permission to believe that the woman in my arms actually wanted to remain there.My wolf was restless, pushing against my ribs with a possessive hunger that made my grip tighten around her waist, but I kept my hands gentle even when I wanted to pull her closer than human bodies could possibly allow. Ava caught my lower lip between her teeth, and I felt the small smile she tried to hide when I drew back to look at her.“What are you looking at?” she whispered, her fingers still tangled in my hair.I brushed my mouth over hers again. “My wife.”She laughed softly, then pulled me down by the collar and kissed me with eno

AVAAurora didn't wait for either of us to answer before grabbing my hand and pulling me away from the sofa, apparently deciding that being invited to dance was the same thing as receiving an official order from the Queen of the living room. Damien stood up more slowly, watching our daughter drag me towards the middle of the rug with an expression that suggested he would rather face an armed enemy than whatever ridiculous performance she had planned.“Daddy, you have to come properly because you're standing there looking like somebody has ordered you to attend a funeral, and this is supposed to be a happy dance with your family!”I looked over my shoulder at him, laughing as Aurora pulled both my hands.“She has a point, Damien, because you look like you're preparing to interrogate the music player instead of dancing with your wife and daughter.”He gave me that familiar dark look, the one that usually made other people reconsider whatever they were about to say, but I only smiled wid

AVAAurora had fallen asleep so completely that she didn't even complain when Damien shifted her in his arms, although I suspected she would have something to say about it in the morning if she discovered that we had carried her upstairs without asking permission. She had spent the entire evening ordering us around, and now she was hanging against her father's chest with one little arm wrapped around his neck, her hair scattered across his shoulder.I walked ahead, opening the bedroom door and switching on the small lamp beside her bed. Damien followed carefully, moving with the kind of attention he usually reserved for something dangerous, even though the only thing he was carrying was our sleepy daughter in her ridiculous pink pyjamas.“Put her down slowly, because if she wakes up and realizes you've moved her without permission, we'll probably have a royal investigation before breakfast,” I whispered.He gave me a look but lowered her onto the mattress, supporting her head until it

AVA“Mommy?”Aurora's sleepy voice came from upstairs again, followed by the faint sound of little feet moving across the floor. I lifted my head from Damien's chest, and he immediately turned towards the staircase, his attention sharpening in that familiar way that made his wolf seem to wake before the rest of him.I pushed myself off the sofa.“Stay here, Damien, because I think our little princess has decided that bedtime is no longer acceptable without a personal appearance from her mother.”He watched me climb the stairs, then followed a few steps behind, his presence close enough that I could feel him without turning around. When I reached Aurora's bedroom, I found her standing in the doorway with her pink blanket dragging behind her, her hair tangled from sleep and her little face wearing the irritated expression she usually reserved for people who had disappointed her.“What happened, baby?” I asked, crouching in front of her.She rubbed one eye with her fist, then reached bot
