Lila’s POV What did she just say? The woman Enzo is going to marry? But what about Connie? I wanted to ask, but I thought against it. The woman seemed so sure of her words, and I had no idea who she was. Though I had to admit, she kind of looked familiar. It was almost like she didn’t want a
Were they talking about Alpha John? He was her father? How had I not known that? I was so shocked I couldn’t even move or speak; I was just stunned in place. I was staring between the two of them like a dear in headlights. My mate and my music idol. “I have heard that you were in a relations
Enzo’s POV There was a painful expression on Lila’s face. She looked between Bethany and me, trying to figure out whether I was serious. I knew there was a part of her that wanted to leave. If she stayed any longer it would only hurt her that much worse, and my wolf wasn’t able to handle feeling h
Lila had noticed Bethany at that point, and they locked eyes for a moment. Bethany wondered what this girl was thinking and why she looked so down. She wondered if it had anything to do with the handsome Enzo. The thought caused a flicker of a smile to tug at Bethany’s perfectly formed lips befor
Enzo’s POV “Alpha John is requesting a meeting with you,” Beta Ethan said during a mindlink. “He agreed to meet you somewhere in Higala. Perhaps a coffee shop in the morning.” “Did he say what it’s about?” I asked, curiosity piquing my interest. It was odd that John would request a last-minute mee
“I really appreciate this,” John said, chugging the rest of his coffee before standing to his feet. “I’ll be seeing you soon.” … Third Person POV Bethany packed her things immediately upon her father’s arrival. The made-up story about her mother’s killer being alive still was entirely Bethany’s
Lila’s POV “Professor Enzo will be running a little bit late. He got stuck in a meeting. But he should be here soon,” Connie announced once class started. “In the meantime, you can practice the moves we taught you the other day.” Everybody joined their partners and began shifting and attacking. I
He stopped walking and turned to me; there was humor on his face. I wondered how he was able to show his humor without actually smiling. It was all in his eyes. “You can’t hurt me,” he said in return before taking his stance. “Now turn around and stop my attack.” I felt my face warming under the
“Did you hear?” Bri asked, a hint of a smile on her lips. “That my son was kissing your daughter?” I asked, raising my eyebrows as I looked down at a very red-faced Kayla. Bri nodded, and then we both glanced at Asher who was staring at Kayla with a pained expression on his face. Awe, my littl
I smiled and nodded as I stepped around her and back down the stage. As I walked back to my seat, my eyes glazed over at Enzo who was beaming at me. My heart swelled at the sight of him smiling. I could see how proud he was in his eyes, and it instantly made me teary. How was it possible to love s
Lila’s POV “Today marks a new beginning. It is a chance to redevelop ourselves and tell the universe the kind of people we want to be. Today marks our many successes and our many failures. A chance for us to screw up and then redeem ourselves. A chance for us to fall in love all over again. Today
I smiled at my toddler as I placed him in his highchair. “Pancakes it is,” I said fondly as I went over to the freezer and pulled out the pack of frozen mini pancakes. I put a few on a plate and popped them into the microwave. After I sent the timer, I made both Asher and Coope a juice cup and I
Lila’s POV 2 years later Asher woke me up bright and early as he did every morning. He’s lucky I love him so much. Enzo wasn’t in bed when I woke up, which made me worried for about 2 seconds before I remembered that he told me he had to clean up his stuff from the arena that morning. It was
She held up a light blue bear with a polka dot bow tie. This was the only toy that could get Cooper to sleep. “Oh, goddess,” I said with my face warming. If I couldn’t even remember my son’s bear, how was I going to do motherhood? Enzo took the bear from my mother and then went to pick up the
Lila’s POV “They are both Volana wolves?” I whispered, staring at the pups. My mother and Diana brought me the twins so that I could see for myself. When I was met with two pairs of violet eyes and two pairs of blue eyes, my heart swelled with joy. Tears instantly filled my eyes as I held my two
Enzo smiled at my words and then he cleared his throat before he began to speak. “I will always be your protector,” he said in return. “I’ll do whatever I have to keep my family safe. You, Cooper, and Asher, are my family. I will never let anything happen to you three. I know these last couple of
Corrinne and Flynn rushed to my bedside to look at their nephews. “They are so cute,” Corrinne whispered. “Lila!” I heard Bri say as she rushed toward me and threw her arms around my body. “You had us all so scared.” “I’m sorry to worry you guys,” I said through my tears, smiling up at Becca a
