he said dryly. "Then you showed up."A smirk tugged at my lips. "Funny."His eyes narrowed. "What's funny?" "I was having a great day too."I stepped closer. "Didn't have to look at anything ugly for nearly twenty-four hours."Liam's jaw clenched.For one glorious second, I thought he might actually punch me. "Dylan." "Liam."We stared at each other,Years of rivalry crackled between us.Neither of us could remember exactly when we started hating each other.At this point, it had simply become tradition.

I turn, and time stops. Riley stands outside a patient room, talking to a young couple. She's wearing a simple blue dress, her hair pulled back in a professional bun. But it's her face that stops me cold. She's glowing. She gestures as she speaks, explaining something to the anxious parents. Her voice carries down the hall with warmth and reassurance, it was full of the strength I always knew she possessed. "Riley's helped over forty families in just two weeks," Dr. Oliva says. "She has a gift for making people feel heard."

Seems the two women were drunk, they didn't even realize how close they got to each other until they heard someone yell “Yo, Rachel. That voice made them jump back from each other, they turned and saw Xander standing there, They looked like they have just seen a ghost "How the hell did you find us, Olivia asked. "The boss is worried, I need to take you to him now, Xander said, holding his arm out to Rachel. Rachel and Olivia exchanged glances before looking at Xander. "but we are just getting started, why can't you give us like 10 minutes?" Olivia said giving her best puppy eyes. "No time to waste," he replied as he turned around. seems her puppy eyes didn't work on Xander because he shook h

He has said multiple times I’m his mate, and only moments ago, yet he keeps on pushing. “Okay, okay, enough of that talk for one dinner, we haven’t even gone through one course,” Narissa sighs before taking a sip of the red wine one of the maids has poured out. Ryan looks between the two of us with a confused frown, “I suppose congratulations are in order then?” he says. I force a smile in return, before looking worriedly back at Oliver who has calmed down. His eyes closed and he seems to be trying to concentrate on breathing, before opening them and looking directly into mine, and giving me a genuine smile.

Slowly, Oliver shuffled forward and stood right where Riley indicated. “Gamma?” Oliver swallowed but didn’t say anything. “Did you want to hurt me?” I sat down in the chair on the other side of the bed. I could see the pain in Oliver’s eyes when he registered what Riley asked. “No! Never! Goddess, no. Not even as my Luna but just as you. I couldn’t. I wouldn’t. How could you…” Riley put up his finger and Oliver shut his mouth. The two looked at each other for a while before Riley smiled.

"You know it! Everyone who is everyone is going to be there. Ethan is amazing, and I'm so happy I got to work with him on this. I think you're really going to enjoy it." "Aw, I can't wait. I just know this is going to be the best day ever," both Riley and Lily giggled as they started walking to school. As they reached the end of the driveway, they noticed Ollie standing there with a stern look on his face. "Ollie, hey, how are you? Haven't seen you around lately."

They could have been brothers – the same dark hair, the same bone structure, even similar expressions of wariness. "Ollie, this is Riley," Xenois said, his voice warm with enthusiasm. "And Riley, this is my son Ollie." The two boys stared at each other for a long moment, neither speaking. Riley seemed to be waiting for something, his right hand twitching at his side like he wanted to move it but was holding himself back. "Well, don't just stand there," Sophia said with a laugh that sounded forced even to my ears. "Why don't you boys shake hands and introduce yourselves properly?"

Her allure was undeniable, and it kept Dylan captivated, ensnared by her charm. They have a son called Oliver, who is the same age as Logan and Violet. He is a sweet little boy and loves to play with Logan. Which is a relief, as Riley has had to help me out with the kids far too many times. Logan, I think, has a tiny bit of a crush on Riley as well. It’s super cute, actually. He once picked her flowers from the garden and presented them to her. We all found it incredibly funny.

Oliver _____ The office door opened even before I answered. The grinning face of Leo showed first, followed by Liam whose face remained on his phone. I pushed the laptop off me and leaned against the back seat as I watched them take their seats. “I don't appreciate the way you treat us,” Leo complained. “What are we, robots?” I smirked. “I did something?” I asked as I rubbed my chin. They looked weary, something I did not mention. “Tomorrow is the wedding,” Liam asked. “And you told us this morning?”

Diana said with a mischievous glint in her eye, earning another eye roll from Sofia. Adam leaned against the stairs, engrossed in his phone, when a soft pat on his back startled him. Turning around sharply, he saw Ryan standing there with a mischievous grin. “What did you do, Adam?” Ryan asked, his tone playful but curious. Adam arched a brow. “What are you talking about?” Ryan smirked knowingly. “Don’t play dumb. Mr. Morelli suddenly pouring all his investment into Montero Enterprises? And the fact that you’re the one funding it? Come on, big brother, what’s the angle here?”
