But he was interested in Doris that night, allowing her the opportunity to get close. Alex always knew this but just refused to admit it. But now I had placed this before him, not allowing him to deny it. He finally knew we were over and never going back. I got up and left the coffee shop.

I meant it. However, Lucas just broke down. "I'll never be happy again... I've lost it all," he sobbed. ... I left the house to Lucas, wanting to keep nothing but the memories. Still, I wired 150 thousand dollars to Patrick's account. Not because I was soft, but because I was done with that chapter. I was financially secure, and Lucas had quit his job. I did not want any loose ends. Life got brighter from there. My college buddy and I started an outdoor club right there in town. I met folks who shared my love for the wild, and we would head out on adventures whenever we could.

“Meet me at the mansion.” Charlie’s tense expression softened slightly. An overwhelming flash of happiness emerged beneath his now-brightened face. He nodded slowly. “Thank you, Elena.” Without extending his hand or saying another word, Charlie turned around and left the executive office of Aethel Corp. CLICK. The double glass doors closed tightly behind him. The moment he stepped into the empty VIP elevator, Charlie’s emotional defenses instantly collapsed. He leaned against the glass wall of the elevator. Charlie tilted his head upward as his eyes began to glisten with tears.

“After this, no more delays. Tonight. Private ceremony. Just us. Then I’m knotting you until you can’t walk.” Tears slipped down my cheeks—happy, relieved, free. “Yes. A thousand goodbyes to everything before. Hello to you.” He kissed them away. “A thousand goodbyes.” We stayed locked on the table, hearts hammering in sync, while the city hummed outside and the bond sang its final, unbreakable note. I was Alisa Moretti. I was Kael Draven’s mate. And I had never been more free.

My makeup artist couldn't stop buzzing my ears about how lucky I am to have such a lucky man. I know, right? My cheek lifts, my heart melts, and for a million times I'm glad I chose him even though my family doesn't approve of him. My effort to convince them wasn't just a waste. I slowly read through the letter that came with the gift box. “I'm glad we are doing this together, even though the world disapproves of us being together. My sunshine, your smile melts my heart in a million ways you can't imagine.I adore you.I promise to love you with everything in me.Love, baby.See you at the altar."

In the middle of all the voices and celebration, I quietly said, "I do." A month later, on an ordinary night, Dwayne and I lay tangled together in bed. A call came in from an unknown number. I picked it up without much thought. Brandon's voice came through. He sounded sick, his voice thick. "Congratulations on your wedding." I lifted my eyes slightly. "I don't need your well wishes." His voice grew heavier, like something was breaking inside him. "I'm sorry." I hung up. It was too late. The next day, the news reported that Brandon had jumped to his death.

I opened it to find an animated sticker—a cute little cat apologizing. I didn’t bother scrolling through the rest of his messages. Taking a deep breath, I pressed delete. Nine years of chat history vanished in an instant. My fingers trembled slightly as I stared at the now blank screen. After steadying myself, I walked out of the airport. My mom had already texted to say they were waiting outside. I couldn’t let them notice anything was wrong. I didn’t want them to worry. I was worried about how I’d find my parents in such a crowded airport, but from a distance, I spotted a large banner that read, “Welcome home, our darling Gina!”

" In the distance, footsteps came to a halt. It was Dylan, arms full of magical herbs.

Germa. “I do.” He did not tear his eyes off. He wanted to memorize every part of her face—every detail before he can finally bid his farewells. “Well—” She chuckled. “—See you when I see you then.” The forced smile he earned left a pang on his chest. “Goodbye, Charlie.” “Goodbye, Germa.” He was itching to ask Ruscov about a lot of that were somehow related to Germa, but it wasn’t the right time yet, and so Charlie Reed had taken the latter to keep his questions at bay.

I feel oxygen slowly enter my lungs again. Oh, Timothy. How did he even know what Charlie asked me? I lean against the desk and Timothy hands me the phone, "Say goodbye." "I love you, Charlie," I whisper into the receiver. "Be good for Grandma, okay?" A single tear escapes just as I end the call. It’s hot and bitter. Timothy catches it with the pad of his thumb.
