Let Me Go, Ex Husband Chapter 13
AIDEN'S POVThe council meeting stretches on through the morning, Xavier deftly manipulating the story to my wolves remains out in the territories. I politely protest, bringing up the idea of joint patrols which would give me more valid excuses to lurk around the pack house—close to Haylee and the enigmatic twins who've so captivated me.haunting me.“Mixed patrols create the chance for conflict of unknown wolves,” Xavier gently debates.“Or they consolidate trust and deepen the alliance,” I counter. "My lieutenant Damon has a lot of training experience for integrated packs.The council members murmur thoughtfully, and I can tell Xavier’s jaw hardens with frustration. It’s a small victory but I’ll take it.”After the meeting ends, I head back to my quarters to shower and change, and then I make my way to the science fair. My phone is buzzing with a text from my beta back home about pack business. Everything is stable, nothing that needs me to come home right nowI veer slightly off cou

HAYLEE'S POVThe first light of morning seeps through the curtains, and I look at my face in the mirror in my bedroom. The woman in my mirror seems at peace, but inside I feel like a storm is brewing, a gale-force rumbling that never quite materializes. It’s the day I vowed to give Aiden—one day and nothing more—but the promise has kept me up most of last night and it’s filled with dread and a queasy kind of excitement I can’t let myself feel."You're up early." Xavier's voice startles me. He’s standing in the doorways, already in his Alpha’s uniform, watching me with evaluative eyes.“Council reports,” I explain, sweeping my hand towards the papers on the dresser. "Thought I'd beat them to the punch before—-”"Prior to your outing with Fenrir?" He says in a flat voice, but his clenching jaw gives away his annoyance.I turn to face him directly. "It's one day, Xavier. To move the details of the alliance to a private discussion.“So that’s the new name for it?” He moves a step closer an

AIDEN'S POVFrom the time that Haylee sets foot into the clearing, the world appears to halt. She’s wearing a plain blue dress that makes the silver flecks in her eyes pop—eyes I’ve dreamed of for five long years. I push myself away from the oak we once carved our names in, buried under new bark. Appropriate, the way nature hides the old wounds.“You showed up,” I say, shocked. Part of me had thought Xavier would come up with some kind of emergency to keep her from returning.“I don’t lie, I keep my promises,” she says, keeping a safe space between us. "One day, as agreed."The mate bond thrums between us, louder than it was yesterday, impossible to escape. Does she feel it too, the strange force compelling us together despite the years and pain that lie between us?“I think we can go over by the river,” I say, pointing to the eroded path on the east side. "Like we used to."Haylee pauses, her guarded expression on her face. "I'm not here to swap memories, Aiden.“Just walking,” I repl

HAYLEE'S POVThe trip to the pack house feels much longer than it should, every step heavier than the last. Aiden’s words keep playing on a loop in my head, unsettling truths and possibilities spent five years burying now being unearthed and made privy to society. The mating bond buzzes under my skin, awakened more by our time together.Xavier’s waiting for me on the front porch, all tense and choked with barely leashed anger. His gaze follows my progress around the room, taking stock of the details of my appearance as though he is looking for evidence of my disloyalty.“You never answered when I called,” he murmurs as I make my way up the steps, his voice soft, but his demeanor anything but.“There has been no emergency at the northern border,” I rebuke, edging around him to the door. “Elder Margaret just confirmed that already.His hand grabs my wrist, powerful, but not in a painful way. “The emergency was that my Luna was in the woods with another Alpha. An Alpha who didn't have the

AIDEN'S POVThere are coils of seedy tendrils of steam emanating from the holy hot waters and they skulk through the dusk like gasps from ancestors. I glance at my watch for the fourth time in fifteen minutes. She's late. Maybe she’s not coming at all.The mere thought sends an unpleasant wince down my chest. Five years of being apart, five years of wondering, of wishing, of regretting, and now that I have found her again I don’t want to frighten her. One slip up and I might lose her forever with my children.A branch breaks in the distance, and my wolf ears automatically zero in on it. Seconds later, I’m enveloped in her scent now; lavender and rain with an essence that is so Haylee beneath it. My body reacts and my heart races when she breaks through the trees.She stops at the clearing’s edge, wariness in every line of her form. The Luna finery is gone, replaced with plain jeans and a forest green sweater that turns her eyes more gold than brown. Her hair is down around her shoulder

HAYLEE'S POVThe woods are a blur as I race back to the compound, replaying that encounter at the springs in my mind. The near-kiss with Aiden. The pull of the mate bond. The weakness I'd shown. Anger floods through every muscle on my body with every step—anger at myself for almost giving up rational want for biological need.I stop at the end of the clearing to regroup myself before entering Xavier's domain. _My_ territory now. Five years of establishing a new life, of molding walls around my heart, and Aiden's reckless actions could wreck it all in a few blow of his two-fisted wrecking ball.Not this time.Xavier is waiting for me on the front porch of our house, the warm light just behind him. He stands relaxed, but I can see it in his shoulders."It's later than I thought you would return," he says, with just the slightest edge to his voice beneath the warmth of it.I meet his gaze evenly. The eastern border took more time than I thought it would. Pack of scoundrels came through la

XAVIER'S POVI observe Haylee as she steps out of the shrubs, stiff backed and expressionless. Aesthetically about control, as pure control as we’ve seen in years. But I know better. Since we have been together for five years, I can decipher the nuances — the small line between her brows and the tightness in her shoulders. Aiden has gotten to her more than she’d like to concede."How did it go?" I remain calm in my voice as she gets up onto the steps to our porch.Haylee looks me in the eye, but there’s a wariness in her eyes. "It's done. I told him to stay away.""And will he?" I lean on the railing, looking at her face.She groans, ruffling her hair with her hand. "He's stubborn. But I made myself clear."I take a confident step forward and circle her in my arms. She pauses for half a second and then relaxes against me. That brief pause cuts me to the heart.“You seem tense,” I say, into her hair. “Let me make dinner like this today. You can rest.""That's not necessary—""I insist.

HAYLEE’S POV“Congratulations, Luna, You’re three weeks pregnant.” The doctor said and I felt my heart stop for a moment as tears of joy welled up in my eyes.Pregnant? I’m pregnant! I really am pregnant!My excitement knew no bounds as I felt a sensation in my guts, my stomach muscles contracted with a delightful tingling sensation.“I—” I paused to catch my breath, my fingertips trembling as I clutched the test results in my hands, “I’m pregnant?” I asked again to be sure I’m not just hearing things.“Yes, Luna.” The pack doctor responded and that warm delight spread through my stomach, engulfing me in its fuzzy feeling as the pleasurable quiver ran through me.I still couldn’t believe it. It’s been three years since I got married to Alpha Aiden Fenrir of the Shadow pack, one of the strongest packs.Three years since I became Luna of a pack that was once strange to me. I touched my stomach as a smile crept up my lips and I felt a bottomless peace within me.“Thank you, Doctor.” I sa

AIDEN'S POVHaylee’s mother’s ring weighs heavy in my hand as I see the expression of her face change into one of pure shock. This silver band I have preserved for five years now to keep close, a last tie to the woman I lost, the only thing of her that remained."Where did you get this?" she whispers, gaze fastened on the fragile moonstone setting that reflects the garden’s soft light.“It was on your wrist the day you went missing,” I say, the words wanting to reach out to close the space. I discovered it on the bank of the northern creek, partly buried in mud. I’ve carried it all this time, hoping one day to find you and make it back to you.”She notices that her fingers tremble a little as she reaches for it, hesitates, and then allows herself to go on. “I always thought that it was lost forever. Like so many things."There is a heaviness to her words that goes unsaid, which lingers between us—its meaning as trashed as our future, our love, our family.“It’s all yours,” I say, offer

HAYLEE'S POVTouching my mother's pendant, I skirt its silvered curves on my skin with my fingers, I stand before the bedroom mirror. It is the moon and star that make up my family symbol—a relic I believed was lost forever when my father’s pack was toppled."You look beautiful."Xavier's image hovers behind me as he touches my shoulders. He’s tall, strong, his basic, cedar and amber scent fills me as he drops a soft kiss on my neck.“Thanks so much for catching that again,” I tell him, looking him in the eye in the mirror. “I’m still in shock that you found it after all these months.“haylee- I would move mountains for you,” he responds, in a tone most sincere. "You know that."I turn to him, noting the bold angles in his jaw, that arrogance in his posture and the prolonged stretch in the corded muscle down his neck to the spikes on his back. Xavier has been my stronghold, my savior, my second chance at life. So, why do I keep hearing Aiden's voice playing in my head?*I never chose
