We all went down to the dining hall to eat and half of us were yawning or staring ahead. It had been quiet a day for all of us. “She’ll come around,” Jara said to Lily “she has a chance to raise her daughter with family. Your niece will grow up with a mother, loving grandparents and aunts. That is m
Lily’s pov It’s a month later and I still feel really bad for Charlotte. Some part of me is also angry at her, I wish she would see that Osiris did the right thing. In time I hope the pain of rejecting Gabriel will hurt less. Rejecting would hurt less than feeling your mate die right? “Yeah, reject
We walked back together, holding hands while Osiris told me how things went at the Midnight Blood pack “I think they’re finally able to accept Dionne and Neron. Jara showed them too. I had her spar with one of the arrogant members. He refused to fight against a woman first, but eventually he gave in
Chapter 86 Osiris’ pov I couldn’t wait for our date. It had been months that Lily and I had the whole night to ourselves. Not that I was complaining “it kind of sounds like you are though” Santos said. “Well, I did really miss being able to be with Lily without worrying Asher could wake up at ever
Lily’s pov Our date last week went great. I was so nervous to leave Asher, but once I knew he was safe and happy with Emma, I decided to focus my attention on my mate. We eventually managed to have sex in five different rooms, but my sexy lingerie only lasted two rooms. Being alone with Osiris was
Osiris’ pov I had tried to avoid Lily as much as I could. I didn’t want to expose her to my mood. I thought I was doing a good job at hiding my feelings, but I was clearly mistaken. Every year I had this anger and guilt inside me when the anniversary of my parents’ death came closer. I thought havi
Lily’s pov I had no idea how much work planning a wedding was. From the moment Osiris had asked me to marry him I had thought about our wedding, but I just figured it would be a small ceremony and I would wear a cute dress. Like a bohemian forest wedding or something. Arya giggled at my thoughts “a
Osiris’ pov Lily’s mom arrived yesterday and I spent most of the day in my office, hiding like a coward. They’re planning the wedding together and I should help, but I have no opinion on some of the choices they’re making. I don’t even know the difference between some of the colors they mentioned,
I noticed Cyrus wasn't swearing because all the kids were here. I knew it was hard for him to keep the fucks in. Jara smiled, “when I came out, I was so nervous. My parents always raised us to accept everyone, but what if the pack didn’t accept me? But my little brother Riker was perfect. He told m
The end. Lily’s pov It has been a year since Riker died. Mia is moving out next month and Damian and Kane will move in. Things are changing, life is moving on. But tonight we are looking back. Remembering Riker and the impact he had on our lives. Osiris had invited everyone that was important to
Osiris’ pov “I think you should make Damian the official Beta. He’s been doing Riker’s job for almost a year now and he deserves it.” Lily said. I shook my head, “it feels wrong. And what will happen to Mia and the kids? They’ve grown up here.” Lily sighed, “you know what’s wrong? Not rewarding D
Cyrus’ pov “Dad, I know you have a brother and a niece, uncle Joshua and Melanie. But any more family, I should know of. I have to make this fucking family tree.” Leia said. “Language.” April yelled from across the room. I still sometimes spoke to my brother, Josh and Melanie, but not as often as
Mia’s pov “Mom can you tell us again how you and dad met?” Sierra asked me. She and Roman looked at me filled with anticipation. I had promised I would tell them about Riker and me. What he was like when he was younger and how everything started. I had been avoiding it. Scared it would make me cry
Osiris’ pov “So what was the first time you felt like something was your fault?” Was I really doing this? Going to therapy? I thought I could just talk to Lily and Cyrus, but they seemed to think I need more help. That it’s not just Riker’s death, but everything that happened. I don’t mind therapy
Cyrus’ pov “I have barely seen him now, for three weeks. He works and then at night he goes out and patrols. He didn’t even attend the funeral. I am so worried.” “Luna Lily, I’m sure he’s okay. He’s just dealing with Beta Riker’s death in a different way.” April said, trying to calm Lily down. Li
Lily’s pov Once Asher was asleep, I got dressed and went downstairs. Mia had broken the news to Roman and everyone was crying. Sierra was still covered in blood and staring ahead. “How can I help?” I asked Arya. “Maybe that’s what you should ask Mia? See how you can help?” Arya advised. Mia was
“No Ashie. No Ashie. You’re not weak. It’s okay.” I felt thorn. I didn’t know if I needed to go help Mia and Sierra, or go home with my boy. Or go and look for Osiris. I took Asher’s hand in mine and we walked back to Mia. Jara was there, apparently Mia had mindlinked her. “Okay, Mia has someone
