My thoughts churned, a whirlwind of emotions—fear, anger, confusion, and an unexpected tenderness towards Caden.Just as I was sinking deeper into my turmoil, I heard sounds from the front door. My heightened senses, a gift of my new lycan form, picked up the faint murmur of voices. I focused, honing in on the conversation outside."...I'm here to see Little— Aurora," Caden's voice, strong and steady, reached my ears."Why? Why are you going to see her?" Lucas's voice was sharp, filled with incredulity and barely contained rage."It's complicated, Lucas. Aurora and I... we're together. We are mates.” He sounded so confident and determined. The confession made my heart skip a beat. Despite everything, Caden was willing to face his son and declare his intention
Alpha Caden’s POV As we walked back into Aurora's apartment, the door clicking shut behind us, a loud growl from her stomach broke the silence. I couldn't help but chuckle, a warm, genuine sound that felt good after everything that had been said."You must be hungry," I remarked, amusement twinkling in my eyes.Aurora blushed slightly, nodding. "Yeah, I guess I am.""Knowing how you could be such a disaster in the kitchen during your teenage years, how about I cook something for you?" I suggested, a playful grin spreading across my face.She raised an eyebrow, crossing her arms over her chest. "I'll have you know, I’m good at cooking now. I’ve had years of practice."I shook my head, still smiling. "No, no. I insist. Let me cook for you. Consider it a small way to make up for lost time."She shrugged, a small smile playing on her lips. "Alright, if you insist. But don't blame me if you find me critiquing your skills."I chuckled again and we made our way to her small but cozy kitchen

I already had twenty-three-year-old children, and now I was about to start all over again. And with my children's best friend, no less. It felt surreal, almost unbelievable.I stood up slowly, moving back to my chair, and sat down heavily. My mind was a whirlwind of conflicting emotions. Joy, fear, confusion, and a hint of guilt battled for dominance. I glanced at Aurora, her eyes still glistening with tears, and felt a surge of protective instinct. Yet, the implications of this new chapter were overwhelming."Are you okay?" Aurora's voice was tentative, pulling me from my spiraling thoughts.I took a deep breath, trying to articulate the tumultuous emotions inside me. "I... I don't know how to feel," I admitted, my voice unsteady. "Having a baby at forty-two, when I already have twenty-three-year-old children...
Alpha Caden’s POV Walking back into Aurora's apartment, my resolve was firm, but I wasn't prepared for the intensity of the emotions that would hit me when I saw her. She was curled up in a ball on the couch, looking small and vulnerable. The sight stirred something deep within me—an urgent need to protect, to comfort, to claim what was mine.Without a word, I crossed the room and scooped her up into my arms. She gasped, surprised but not resisting, her body relaxing against mine. I carried her effortlessly, pushing her gently against the wall. Our eyes locked, and the intensity of the moment took over. I could no longer hold back.I kissed her, pouring all the pent-up longing and desire into that kiss.

The need between us was electric, undeniable, and it surged to the forefront, erasing any lingering doubts or fears.I already knew Lucian was intense, but I was unprepared for
Aurora’s POV The intensity of Caden’s desire caught me off guard, leaving me breathless and exhilarated. As he guided me onto the bed, his presence radiated raw passion and urgency, igniting a fire within me that I couldn't ignore.With a primal hunger driving him, Caden unleashed everything he had been holding back, unleashing a torrent of need with a ferocity that left me trembling. The way he moved, the way he looked at me, spoke of a hunger that burned deep within him, waiting to be sated. Kneeling over me, his gaze bore into mine with an intensity that made my heart race. In a bold and decisive move, he ripped open the bodice of my dress, the sound of tearing fabric echoing in the room like a thunderclap. My breath caught in my throat as the fabric fell away, leaving me exposed and vulnerable beneath his gaze.Without hesitation, he shed his own shirt, revealing the powerful muscles that rippled beneath his skin. With a growl that sent shivers down my spine, he descended upon
Aurora’s POV I whisper, "Do it, then. Do it all. Give me all of you. And don't you dare hold back Caden"In the split second of hesitation, he moistens his lips, his lids drifting lower, eyes darkening with unrestrained desire. The air between us crackles with tension, and then he moves with a fierce determination.He grabs me by the ankles, dragging me to the edge of the bed. My heart races as he leans down, taking a big, greedy mouthful of my ass. The sensation is intense, his hot breath on my skin making me shiver. He sinks his teeth into my flesh with an animal's snarl, a primitive sound of victory that reverberates through the room, like a lion gloating over a fresh kill.In place of his teeth, I feel his hand.

The sharp pain melds with the heat of desire, sending a jolt of pleasure through me.He starts to speak to me in Russian, his words harsh and guttural, spoken thro
Alpha Caden’s POV I woke up earlier than Aurora the next morning, the first rays of dawn filtering through the curtains and casting a gentle glow over her sated face. She looked serene, burdenless, and I felt a surge of pride knowing I was the one who made her feel this way.She lay naked beside me, her beautiful pale skin glowing in the soft morning light. My eyes trailed down her body, admiring the intricate tattoos that adorned her skin, each one telling a story of her strength and resilience. As I continued to trace the lines of her tattoos, my gaze fell upon a single name inked right below her left breast: Reynard.Reynard. It means male fox. She used to call me that when I called her my little fox. The sight of the tattoo stirred something deep within me. She had permanently marked herself with my name, a symbol of our connection that transcended time and distance. My heart ached with emotion, a mix of love and disbelief. She had tattooed it. She had carried me with her, even
Alpha Caden’s POV Returning to the palace after our week in South Africa felt surreal. That time had been a sanctuary, a retreat where Aurora and I could rebuild our bond away from the pressures of our roles. But now, the weight of the throne and the reality of court politics bore down on us as we approached the palace's grand entrance.Aurora stayed close to my side, her hand gripping mine tightly. The palace, once a place of familiarity and routine, now seemed cold and oppressive after our brief escape. My thoughts were consumed by the upcoming coronation and the disturbing news Caleb, my newly discovered twin brother, had brought to light.Caleb had appeared out of nowhere, a living reminder of the family secrets and past deceptions that seemed to plague our lineage. His resemblance to me was uncanny, but his demeanor held a hardness that set him apart.

When she stretched against me, her body arched with a sensual grace that left me breathless.I buried my face in her hair, inhaling deeply, savoring the intoxicating scent that enveloped me. Her laughter was like music to my ears, a sweet melody that echoed in the depths of my soul. "I need to send a thank-you note to the company that makes my shampoo," she teased."It's not your shampoo that smells so good," I replied, my voice husky with desire. "It's you. You're delicious."

With each contraction, I pushed with all my might, the pain intense but the goal in sight. Time seemed to blur, each moment stretching out endlessly and yet passing in a heartbeat.The doctor’s voice broke through the haze. “I can see the head. One more big push, Aurora. You can do this.”With a final, desperate effort, I bore down, feeling a rush of relief as the first baby emerged into the world. A lusty cry filled the room, and tears sprang to my eyes.

The bond she felt with Caleb was like a persistent itch she couldn't scratch, a need that gnawed at her insides.With a frustrated sigh, she threw back the covers and got out of bed. The cold floorboards against her feet did nothing to soothe her restless spirit. She wrapped a shawl around her shoulders and quietly slipped out of her room, the moonlight casting soft shadows in the dimly lit corridor.Her steps were silent as she made her way through the palace halls, the silence of the night amplifying the sound of her own heartbeat. She knew where she was going. There was only one place she could go. She needed to see Caleb. To feel his presence. To understand what had happened between them.

"Caden, please. Sit down. Let's talk."He halted, looking at me with stormy eyes. "Fox, you don't understand. My own brother... with my daughter. How could he do this? How could she?"I guided him to the couch, my touch gentle but firm. "I know you're angry. But getting worked up like this won't solve anything."He resisted at first, but I coaxed him with soft touches, my fingers brushing his arm, then his cheek. I leaned in, pressing a gentle kiss to his lips. Slowly, his rigid posture began to soften. He sighed heavily and allowed me to lead him to sit down.As he sat, I settled myself on his lap, facing him. "Cad

She felt hollow, her mind a swirl of confusion and heartache.The door creaked open, and Aurora stepped in quietly, her expression filled with concern.

Let it all out."Lilian clung to Aurora, her sobs coming hard and fast. "I felt it, Aurora. I felt the bond. We're truly mates, and I think I already like him. I feel like I can't live without him.

Third Person POVCaden approached Lilian's bedroom with a heavy heart, ready to explain everything to his daughter. The events of the past week had been tumultuous, and he needed her to understand why he hadn’t told her about him and Aurora. But as he reached for the door, something felt off. The door was slightly ajar, and the scent of sweat and sex hung thick in the air.Pushing the door open, Caden’s eyes widened in shock at the sight before him. Lilian was in bed, naked and tangled in sheets, with a man beside her. His heart dropped when he recognized the man—it was Caleb, his twin brother.

Caden roared, storming into the room.Caleb barely had time to react before Caden's fist connected with his jaw, sending him reeling back onto the bed. Lilian screamed, pulling the sheets up to cover herself as the brothers clashed violently."What the hell are you doing?" Caleb shouted, scrambling to defend himself as Caden swung
Third Person POV Caleb rises to his knees, rips open the zipper on his trousers, and fists his cock in his hand.Lilian stares at it with wide eyes, her hammering heart skipping a beat, then starting up again, beating even faster. Thick and veined, the shaft juts out proudly from his fist. The crown is fat and red, the slit on top glistening with a drop of wetness.His cock is massive, almost intimidating in size. "That look on your face is a bloody nice compliment," he growls. Then he positions himself between her spread thighs, sliding the head up and down through her pussy lips, wetting it.Lilian gasps, managing a breathy, "Condom?""Wasn't planning on having sex today," he says through gritted teeth, staring down into her wide eyes. "Still time to say no, Lilian."She's so turned on, she can barely think. "You said you were clean?""Aye. I promise.""Then fuck me, Caleb. And don't you dare hold anything back. I want everything you have to give me."His grin looks feral. With a s
Third Person POVDelirious, her eyes rolling back in her head, Lilian gasped, “What the hell is happening?” Maybe she is drunk. “Your mate is fingering your gorgeous wet cunt, that’s what,” Caleb growled, his voice dripping with lust.“Goddess! Caleb!” she cried out, her body trembling.“Aye, lass. Say my name just like that when you come,” he breathed, his accent thick and intoxicating.Rocking his hips into her so his erection was pressed right up against her hip, he kissed a path down her neck to her chest, then licked at her cleavage, dipping his tongue into the cleft between her breasts. When she groaned again, he lightly bit down on the swell of one breast.“I need to taste every inch of you,” he whispered, his voice dark and commanding. “I need to bite every perfect part of your skin. I want to fuck you and spank you and make you take my cock down your throat. I want you to tell me every filthy thing you want me to do to you, starting right fucking now.”He pulled his fingers
