The actual ten-year anniversary came in July. Riley woke up to find Samuel already awake, watching her with a soft smile. "Morning," she said. "Morning. Happy anniversary." "Ten years. That's a long time." "Best ten years of my life." "You always say that." "Because it's always true." They'd planned a small celebration. Nothing extravagant, just dinner at the restaurant where they'd had their first date, then a weekend away while Nora watched the kids.

"Okay well I think that's it for the day, you should help your dad get ready for the ceremony tonight." "You guys are going right?" Zella nods. "Yeah we just have to go do some last-minute preparations. Tomorrow's our anniversary," she says. "Wait really? How long?" I ask. "15 years," Angel says, looking back at her mate with a grin. My eyes widen. "Gods that's a long time. What are you guys doing to celebrate?" "Well we're going into the human town to go to a spa and then we're getting lunch at this fancy restaurant in the Black Moon Pack. And then we're finally going to―"

Still, Clarissa can easily slip back into her role with no expectations whatsoever. “Are you done designing the anniversary flyers?” Ronan asks, jolting me. I glance up at him from my desk. He’s in a grey suit and his hair is slick back. He has his usual Colgate smile. Maddox Global is having their five year anniversary soon and they’re having a small charity event. I nod towards him. “Two more minutes. I’ll bring the sample to your office myself.” He mutters something and heads back to his office. I finish up the design after a few minutes, close my laptop and pad towards Ronan’s office. When I get to the door, my phone buzzes with a text from Rio.

I had celebrated our one-month anniversary with a vintage bottle of wine. I had marked our second month with a first-edition book from his favorite author. For our third, I had a star named after him, a ridiculously grand gesture that he had received with a polite, bewildered smile. He never once acknowledged the date himself. He never once planned anything. It was a one-way street, and I was getting exhausted from driving alone.

After hanging up the call, I called my assistant and asked him to immediately divide the properties under my name and my husband's, Cedric Shelby. I wanted to minimize the losses of this situation. I immediately drove to the jewelry store. Just as I was about to get out of the car, I received a call from Cedric. "Honey, I just found out I have to go on a week-long business trip. It's so last minute that I can't spend our anniversary with you. There are also some problems with the company's cash flow, so could you transfer me $100 million?"

Yet after all these years, it had turned into bland, tasteless tap water. On my way home, I picked up the cake I had ordered three days earlier. The words “Happy 10th Anniversary” written in strawberry jam on the cake topper were clearly visible. It was a ten-year promise between Sienna and me. We had spent every single anniversary together. Then, Matt came along. For the first time, Sienna missed my birthday, Valentine’s Day, and Couples’ Day. This was the fourth time this year that Sienna has missed our special day.

I was talking to the guard about the preparation of the tenth full moon festival," River began to speak to me. I was lost, and I didn't hesitate to furrow my brow in confusion. What was so special about the 10th full moon festival? I didn't know why River sounded like the tenth full moon festival meant so much to him. As if River read my confusion, he began to clear things up. "The tenth full moon festival is celebrated in honor of an alpha of the Red Breeder pack..." River's phone began to ring, interrupting him from continuing the conversation. I watched as he picked up the call and placed the phone beside his ear.

**10 Months Later** Devon and Annabelle stood together at the threshold of a new chapter in their lives, hearts fluttering with a mix of excitement and nerves as they prepared to take their daughter, Camille, to school for the very first time. This moment was monumental for their family, marking a significant transition as their little girl stepped into the world of education. Understanding the importance of this day, they both agreed to put their work commitments on hold, recognizing that nurturing their family life was just as essential as pursuing their professional aspirations.

He used to call me kind for that and said I could do whatever I wanted with his old clothes. Now, my chest felt hollow. He wasn't packing for a business trip at all. All he wanted was to wear that shirt from Cassie to meet her one last time. In truth, our anniversary wasn't until two days later, but he had to travel for work, so he decided to move the party up. I had found it troublesome and suggested keeping it simple. "Why not skip the party this year? Let's just have dinner with the family." He had gently kissed me then. "No. You deserve a party and the best of everything, babe."
