Enzo’s POV“You went to the art show, Enzo?” Connie nearly hissed, stepping in front of me as I sat on the couch in my living room. “What are you even still doing here, Connie?” I muttered, kicking off my shoes. “Didn’t your contract end a week ago?” She pouted, folding her arms across her chest.
Nothing a hot shower couldn’t fix. I allowed the steaming hot water to relax my sore muscles and I brushed the thought of Lila out of my mind. I couldn’t believe what I had said to her. I openly admitted to her that I had feelings for her, and it was only going to put her in more danger. Connie wa
Lila’s POV“An election? This student committee was my idea,” I said, staring between all the school board’s faces until my eyes landed on Sarah who stared at me with a smug grin. I could tell that her intentions weren’t pure, and my stomach was forming into a tight knot. “Yes, but it’s a student
“Monstro?” My father asked. “That’s quite far. That’s on the other side of the world. What would you be doing there?” “She has an art signing at the International School of Art for Shifters,” I explained. “And a couple of conferences she needs to attend. She was planning on staying there for a coup
Enzo’s POV“Today, I’ll be teaching you how to shift in the air,” I announced to the class of students. “It’s all in the legs. We kick off from the ground and then begin the shift right when the legs are being pushed off the ground.” I demonstrated with ease, and I was met with applause. “This is
The class was almost over, and students were starting to get their things ready for leave for their next classes. Lila took her time collecting her own things and soon, it was only the two of us left in the arena. I wondered if she had planned it this way. “Can we talk for a minute?” Lila asked, s
Lila’s POV“So, you are going to go away all summer?” Becca asked with large eyes as we sat in the student lounge. “Yes, I think so,” I answered with a head nod. “It’ll be a good opportunity for me. Plus, my parent’s think it’ll be a good idea.” “What am I going to do all summer without you?” Becc
I continued to run until I was at the entrance of the hospital. I shifted into my human form and threw some clothes on that I kept tucked away for when I shift. Once I was fully dressed, I went into the hospital and toward the receptionist. “Good evening, Lila. Visiting hours will be over an hour,”
“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
