“Oli...”

“That's not all, Mom. Two weeks later, I found out I was pregnant,” her breath stops completely now. She raises a hand to cover her mouth dramatically and looks like she's going to fall to the floor, so Lucinda reaches over to hold her up, “I had my son in my apartment, alone and devastated. I wanted so much to be with you but I didn't want to see Clara or Daniel's face, so I stayed away. Laurie is three years and six months old, he's at home right now, with Rosie.”

My mom doesn't move for almost a full minute as she rattles off the information I just provided, but when she finally does, she pulls away from Lucinda's arms and once again hugs me.

“You shouldn't have gone through that alone," she says when she releases me, "You should have at least called me. You were just a child, giving birth among the humans. That’s so dangerous, Olivia.”

“I called a local midwife. Alison. She took care of me," I say, as if it changes anything. My mom shakes her head again.

“Does Daniel know? That he has a son?”

“No," I shake my head, "I haven't spoken to him since that morning.”

“Daniel deserves to know," Lucinda offers, earning a scowl from me. Daniel doesn't deserve shït from me, “Of course he's a douchebag who played you and Clara, but Laurie is his son, Olivia. He has to know that. Clara too.”

“Give me some time,” I beg, “I'll tell them... they'll figure it out eventually anyway, but I'm not ready yet.”

“What was your plan, Oli? Never to come back? Never to tell us about Laurie?”

“No... to be honest, I didn't even have a plan. I didn't know what to do so I just let time go by," I admit and my mother shakes her head, "I know it just made everything harder, but I couldn't risk seeing or talking to Daniel. It hurt too much.”

“And now?” My mom asks, "Are you ready to see him now? Daniel is part of the family”.

Ouch.

“I'm not saying this to hurt you," she continues, "We see Daniel every day, basically. You could run into him at any moment.”

“There's a chance that he can tell Laurie is his son instantly," Lucinda adds, "So I recommend you talk to him before he runs into Laurie and that happens. The confrontation will be worse in that case.”

Ugh. I don't want to talk about this. I am totally and absolutely not ready to have a conversation with Daniel yet.

I hate confrontation. That's why my life is the way it is.

“Okay, I'll do it soon,” I mumble, but it's a lie and they know it. “I'm sorry! It's just too hard.”

“I can do it for you," Lucinda offers, always ready to stick her hands in the fire for whoever, "I can handle that awkward conversation for you. I can even talk to Clara.”

“That would be better," I nod, feeling a weight lifting from my shoulders, "Yes, Lucinda, please take care of that. And tell Daniel that maybe we can make some deal for him to meet his son at some point, but don't let him come near me yet.”

My mom lets out a regret-filled sigh and walks to my dad's side again.

“Frank, wake up and help me with this one, please," she begs, raising a hand to stroke his unconscious face. “This is a mess only you would know how to fix.”

My father would just force us all to do the right thing. I definitely don't want that.

“Lucinda, I’ll just ask you not to run to Daniel and Clara's house to tell them this ASAP, let things happen as they need to happen,” I beg, earning another reproachful look, “Look, I'm here with Felix. My boyfriend. He's human and I don't want any awkward conversations around him.”

“What?! You have a human boyfriend?” My mother exclaims, exalted and approaching me with wild eyes. I've literally never seen her this angry before, “Why?!”

“Because he's a good man who treats me like I'm a diamond, Mom. He's a man who would never do to me what Daniel did.”

“But... you'll never feel for a human what you felt for Daniel. He’s your fated mate. Having a natural compatibility with someone is the realest thing you could ever find. No one would ever compare," she explains, as if I didn't already know, "You'll never get over Daniel as it is, but specially not with this human. You need another alpha.”

“I know.” I answer. I don’t care, though.

A little while later, we return home and my mom meets her grandson for the first time. There are tears, some complaints and introductions when Lucinda's husband arrives with their little twin boys. Alex and Rio. My nephews. And then Carolina’s husband, my old friend Harry, arrives with their newborn daughter. Hannah.

For some reason in the universe, Daniel doesn't arrive. And I still have the beautiful ignorance of not knowing how many children he has with my sister.

Felix comes out of my room as we start making a big meal for everyone and he meets my mom, who is somewhat nice to him, but not nearly as nice as she would’ve been if he wasn't human.

We all eat together and I can't help but notice Laurie running around the backyard with his two cousins, playing and pushing each other in the dirt like pups do.

“Those kids run so fast," Felix murmurs in my ear and laughs. I nod and fake a laugh, but I'm stressed because that's another difficult conversation I need to have as soon as possible. I have to be honest with Felix and tell him what I am.

{ Daniel }

I plop down on the couch at home when I arrive, my legs weeping from exhaustion. I'm hungry, thirsty and tired after working all day, tracking the wolves that attacked my father-in-law.

We were close to finding them or at least about them, but we had to stop to rest. We haven't stopped since yesterday morning when the attack happened and I can't let my men go any more hours without rest.

The house is empty and it doesn't seem strange to me at all because Clara is obviously at home with her family, grieving for what happened to her father.

And even though I need to sleep, eat something and take a shower, I decide to get up one more time and get in my truck to drive to the Taffy's house. I can do everything I need to do there.

I need my family right now. I need to talk to Lucinda and Harry about what we found today and eat whatever my mother-in-law cooked tonight.

It's one o'clock in the morning when I get to the house and there are some lights on. I walk straight to the kitchen.

Lucinda, Robert and Harry are sitting at the dinner table when I arrive and they all look up.

“Hello.”

“You look awful," Lucinda says, worried, "Come, sit down before you drop dead.”

“Thank you," I answer and do just that.

“I'll serve you a plate of food," Robbie announces, unable to ignore the way my alpha äss is obviously screaming for help, "Would you like something to drink?”

“Please, Robbie,” I beg and the omega moves across the kitchen to serve me, "How's Frank?”

“The same, he's not awake yet,” Harry announces and shares a look with Lucinda, “All the girls donated blood and it seems to be going well, but they’re still telling us not to get our hopes up too high.”

“Shït,” I complain, but I remind myself that at least he's not dead, “We're going to find out who did this. We're close. We have several leads.”

“Thank you, Daniel, but you need to get some rest. Your eyes are going to disappear into your dark circles.”

“Don't be rude, Lucy," Robbie complains as he sets a plate full of food in front of me. I groan and start eating as if I haven't eaten in more than twenty hours... because it's true.

“Besides, there's something you should know," Lucinda continues and I turn to her, still eating because I literally can't stop, "Today....”

“Lucy," her husband stops her with a hand on her arm. Lucinda turns to see him and they share a couple of glances for a few seconds, “This is not a good time. At least let the man get some sleep, okay?”

“Okay," she agrees, but doesn't look very convinced, "We'll have this conversation tomorrow, when you wake up.”

I have no idea what she wants to tell me, but I honestly don't care. There's so much going on right now that my head doesn't have room for anything else.

Once I finish eating, I say goodbye and head to Clara's room thinking about how pleasant it will be when I can finally lie down to rest my exhausted body and sleep for hours on end.

When I finish climbing the stairs and I'm on the second floor, some different scents come to me. I close my eyes and inhale, trying to decipher where those strange, yet somewhat... familiar scents are coming from.

I start to follow the scent that is most prominent and calls to me the most, but I stop. This is not the time to be wandering around the house when I should be sleeping too, so I head to Clara's room, leaving that mysterious scent behind.

I take a two-minute shower before throwing myself on the bed next to her and falling unconscious.

In the morning, I stay asleep as much as I can, until I have to accept that the tiredness has been dealt with. I sit up in bed and stretch.

It was a good night's sleep. Just what I needed.

I get up and when I grab my phone from my pants I realize it's eleven in the morning. No wonder I feel so rested.

I leave the room and once again, the scent from yesterday floods my head and makes me feel a little dizzy. I have to close my eyes to fill my lungs before continuing on my way. This time the scent takes me downstairs where everyone is and as soon as I get to them, I realize and understand.

That scent. I remember it very well.

Sweet omega.

My omega. My Olivia.

It also didn’t seem he missed his fated mate.. not even recognised her scent but only found familiar

    { Olivia } Nobody told me. Nobody warned me. I hear heavy footsteps on the stairs and I turn around, trying to shake my nose to get rid of the annoying smell of Daniel that stupid Clara is carrying around on her. And then I see him. For the first time in four years. Daniel. He's twenty-seven now and has grown a beard lately. His body was always massive, but now he's even more muscular than before and maybe even taller. He's like a tank that smells like heaven and I want to kill him. Our gazes connect for a second and it's like someone punching me in the chest and knocking all the air out of me. That's how I want to feel when I look at Felix. Like I could die happily right now because I have everything I need when his eyes are on me. A sea of butterflies passes all over my body and I can feel the animal inside me circling impatiently, begging me to get up and go with him. Our alpha. Our man. But that will never happen.

    { Daniel } “Harry, please come with us," Lucinda calls to the other alpha of the family and they both lead me to a guest room. Now I figure this is what Lucinda wanted to tell me last night, that Oli is back. I'm thankful she didn't tell me last night because I probably would have spent all night fighting the urge to go to her room and pick up where we left off. “What we're about to tell you is very critical,” Harry begins and takes a deep breath as Lucinda prepares to speak, “So we sent Clara on a made-up errand.” “What?” I ask, starting to get anxious. My neck hairs stand up as I smell the stress in them, “What's going on, did Frank die?” “No, it's not that," Lucinda answers. "It has to do with Olivia, but I need you to stay calm. And don't get angry.” Oh, shït. I think I know where this is going. “She told you about us," I guess and they share a look. They obviously already knew.

    ➿ Four years ago ➿ { Daniel } Today is the big day. Olivia’s 18th birthday. I've been waiting two years for this day and I'm almost 90% sure I know the outcome. I have two packs of ice cold beers and three large pizzas in my truck as a gift for my best friend and future sister-in-law who finally gets to have fun with me as an adult. I arrive at the house and get in without knocking because I don't have to. I’m practically family at this point and they’re also waiting for me. I struggle with everything I'm carrying but go downstairs to the basement. “Hey!" I shout over the music as I arrive, drawing everyone's attention. Oli’s four sisters and her three closest friends are here, “Where's the birthday girl?” I drop the stuff on the table and look around, but I don't see Olivia. “She went to her room to pick something up," little Rosie informs me, not paying much attention to me. “I'd better go up there then. I want the memory of her first beer to be just the two of us," I say a

I join Harry and Carolina at the table, trying to act normal, like having Olivia around me is just the most normal thing ever, even though it’s definitely not and I’m internally freaking out. “Just so you guys know… I told Felix the truth. About all of us.” Olivia says and walks to the couch to sit next to Rosie, while Felix follows her slowly with a nervous smile on his stupid face, “He’s trustworthy, okay? I even showed him my wolf and he was fine with it.” I turn to Harry and we share a worried look. Trusting a human is a big risk for us. Huge risk. They could try to expose us to the rest of their kind and that would be fatal for everyone involved. They would try to stick their head where it doesn’t belong,

    { Daniel } As soon as my wife arrives, complaining to her sisters about something I don't understand, I walk over to her and grab her hand. "Can we go talk, in your room?" I ask and she falls silent, looking at me with confusion and starting to smell of concern. I don't have a speech planned, I just follow Clara up the stairs until we reach her room, forcing myself not to breathe so I don't smell Olivia because I already know she ran to hide in her room like the sneaky squirrel she is. "Okay... what's wrong?" Clara asks as soon as she closes the door and gives me a look full of concern, "I already know there's something weird going on in the family since yesterday. I'm not stupid. I can tell they are hiding something and I know it's not about my dad." "No, it's not about that," I start and let out a pained breath, bringing my hands to my face to carve it before continuing, "What I'm going to tell you is delicate and you might get angry, so first I have t

    { Olivia }Someone knocks on my bedroom door all of a sudden while I’m riding my boyfriend on my childhood bed. Felix gasps in fright and gets me off his lap, pulling out of my body in an abrupt manner that makes me hiss. "I'm sorry," he apologizes, but I put the discomfort aside, just move quickly looking for my clothes. I forgot how incredibly annoying it is to live with a million people in the same house. No privacy at all. I get up, pulling my jeans up without bothering with my underwear first. Felix just steals my blanket to cover himself and then I walk over to open the door, "Yes?" Clara's crying face softens my soul for a single second because I never want to see any of my sisters in pain... but when I think that the reason she's sad is because she thinks I stole her man and my wolf starts growling again. "Can we talk in private?" So she can tell me to stay away from Daniel because he's her husband and blah blah blah? No "I'm sorry, Sis, but n

    Rosie gets uncomfortable for a second before looking up at me. I know I'm not going to like whatever she has to say. "No," she replies and I let out a breath of relief, but Rosie fiddles with her hands nervously and I know there's more to it, "Clara was pregnant, but she lost the baby. That was two years ago. The doctor told her she most likely can't have children. Her uterus is not viable." There is a world of emotions inside me. Relief, jealousy, perverse happiness and guilt. I don't want to wish ill on any sister of mine, but... I can't help but be happy that she can't procreate with my man. That doesn't take away from the fact that she was pregnant at one point and they right now could have a pup that I would have hated. My own nephew or niece. I'm a horrible person. "Hell," I manage to say a few seconds later, "What about you, Rosie? Is there a special someone you like?" My sweet sister turns shockingly red and makes me laugh. She i

    "You're smelling sad again," Laurie mentions as I lift him up to sit him in my truck. I don't answer anything, just proceed to put his seatbelt on and walk to get into my side, "Why are you so sad? We won a bunch of tickets." God. This kid. "Uh... I don't know. Sometimes I'm sad and I don't know the reason." I lie. Laurie thinks deeply about my words, but doesn't say anything again. When we get to the house, Olivia comes out as if she can't bear to be away from Laurie anymore, as if she can't bear to know he’s with me. Her body is tense and only softens a little when Laurie waves enthusiastically at him through the window. I get out of the truck with the intention of going to get Laurie out, but Olivia pulls ahead, unable to wait any longer. "I missed you, baby! Did you have fun?" She asks as soon as she has Laurie in front of her, unbuckling his seatbelt to hug him and scent his hair. Seeing her being so motherly makes my stomach clench. I like it.

    I spend the rest of the day taking a tour of the whole clan with Laurie. To be honest, it doesn't look as bad as someone might think. I mean, it is bad, the streets aren't clean, the parks and woods aren't taken care of, there isn't as much security around, there aren't as many businesses and it just doesn't have the rich vibe of Fallonmore, but I trust we can take it there. I need to take it there or I won't like living here. We get to the mall in the afternoon, although it's really just a small plaza with ten stores, absolutely pathetic and sad. They don't even sell the good stuff and it's not full of people like in Fallonmore; they’re always shopping like the world is going to end over there, but we still manage to find formal outfits for tomorrow because Laurent definitely can't introduce himself to his new clan while he's still wearing clothes with the Fallonmore logo on them. We also bought new cell phones and food and spent the rest of the day in Laurent’s old (new?) apa

    "Wow... this was not what we expected at all. You really never know what life has in store for you. Congratulations, Laurie. I always knew your destiny was going to be amazing," my grandfather says with a smile and reaches over to pat me on the back. "No! Grandpa, I don't want this," I admit, looking at everyone for help, "No. No." "Congratulations on accomplishing what I never could. And you didn’t even fucking try. That's so damn great," my Uncle Rodrick blurts out through his teeth, pretending to smile, sitting next to my mom and rubbing her back while she's still in shock, "Totally great. I'm so happy for you." "Can you move away? Your envy is making me nauseous," my mom complains, making my Uncle squint at her with annoyance, "What does this mean, Alessandro? Can he do this from Fallonmore?" "Of course not, Olivia. This is his territory now. He has to live here," my father states and comes closer to grab my shoulders, "This is happening, Laurent.

    When the interrogation is over we can finally eat and the conversation becomes normal because Diory comes down to sit with us. Rio suddenly appears to bring Laurie's car and takes the opportunity to sit down to eat with us. "Where's Alex?" Laurie asks. "Angry at life, but especially at the two of us and Uncle Daniel," he mutters. Daniel and Lucinda share a tired look, "He left this morning without telling me where, he's probably crying under some bridge." "Alex is at my house with Phi, he's not crying under any bridge," Rodrick replies. "Even worse, he's so depressed he's deciding to spend time with the little ones," Rio blurts out, grimacing sadly. Diory throws something at him, "He wouldn't talk to me at all yesterday, he even left our room to sleep somewhere else.” "Alex has to understand that things are different now," Lucinda says, "He couldn't go with you guys and I know that sucks, but rules are rules.

    { Kingsley }With my mom's help I manage to stop this damn crying fit. Everything that happened came crashing down on me on the way back and I think without my mom's help I wouldn't have been able to stop crying for hours and hours, as usual, but now I'm starting to calm down. Olivia’s hysteria is also helping me calm down because it made me laugh to see her attack and hug Laurie at the same time. My mate really did something super freaking stupid, but he made it through in the end. That's all that matters now. My alpha mom grabs me in her strong arms and hugs me, kissing me all over like I'm a literal puppy and scenting my head. "You're grounded," she says after I get the biggest love attack. "What?! Why?" "Because you worried me too much and you don’t do that to your mother. You can't go anywhere but home and Laurent's house until my heart is working properly again," she states and I know that even though it's ridiculous, she's being serious.

    The stress of the situation is causing the tranquilizer effect to wear off me a bit, at least enough to be able to move my arms. I manage to cover my face as I sob in fear and just keep praying because it's all I can do at this point. The sounds are getting worse and worse by the second, not to mention that the potent scent of fear coming from Rio is making me feel even worse. I don't know how much time has passed, but when I hear one last whimper of pain coming from a wolf and then a collective gasp, my world stops. But... I'm not dead. Or am I? "Oh, my fucking god," Rio blurts out and his scent of fear suddenly changes to relief. That's all I need to realize that my mate won. Rio stops pushing my head and I can now hold myself upright, so I manage to turn and see how my Alpha is standing from the ground still in his animal form while Christian's brown wolf lies motionless underneath him. He is dead. My weak legs lose the fight and I fall to the ground on my knees as

    My father gets out of bed as soon as I say that and he listens attentively to the whole thing without wasting a single second asking dumb questions. He immediately grabs his phone to call the borders while my omega dad is just staring at us from his bed with big eyes, breathing heavily. "Kingsley Seong left the clan with Christian Roade," one of the guards says from the phone. Every hair on my body stands up anxiously and I start growling from my chest as I confirm that this fucking asshole really came back to the clan just to grab my mate and take him away from me, "Why, boss?" "How could you let that happen? Kingsley is being taken against his will," my father exclaims, walking over to put on some pants without letting go of the phone. "I don't think so, sir. Kingsley was sitting in the passenger seat, completely lucid." I shake my head. No way. No way. My father ends that call and walks over to grab me by the shoulders. "We'll go get him, Alpha.
