Enzo’s POV Brody was healing nicely; he no longer had bruises or cuts on his face, and he was fully awake. His wolf was working overtime to heal him. He was surprised when I walked into the hospital room to see him. It was early the next morning and Lila was still very much asleep. I didn’t get m
I stared around Brody’s face for a moment longer; he was nothing more than a jock. He was strong and not bad looking, I’ll give him that. But he wasn’t a match when it came to me. I don’t know why I was comparing myself to him. I turned away and back toward the door. “Just get some more rest. I’m
Enzo’s POV I was finishing some work in my office and thinking about what Dee had said about Lila not being able to stand Bethany. I knew Bethany and Lila had some issues, but I had no idea that she would speak to Dee about it. I didn’t ask, but it made me wonder what kind of things were discussed
“Whenever she’s around, it’s like you look for her everywhere. I’m not stupid… she’s your mate.” I was thinking about denying it, but I didn’t want to lie to my Beta. He was right; he’s been my best friend since we were children and lying to him would only make him distrust me. I couldn’t have my
Lila’s POV “Are you nervous about this new facility?” I asked, peering over at Rachel who was in the middle of packing her things. We were both packing. She was packing to head to the rehab facility for the month and I was packing to head back to campus. Rachel looked incredibly nervous as she n
But not before long, my mother entered my room. “Enzo is waiting downstairs for you,” she said, eyeing me carefully. I finished zipping my own bag before walking towards the door, which she was blocking. “Are you going to be okay returning to school so soon after what had happened?” She asked, fu
Lila’s POV I heard what Enzo said, but I still couldn’t process it. Ryan has been in a coma for almost a month with no signs of waking. Now, he was finally awake. The same day that Rachel was going away to a rehab facility. This wasn’t fair. But at the same time, it was so incredible that he was
I nodded my head once. “Yes… “I told him. “So, I’m assuming she’s going back to the facility to detox?” “A different facility. One that’s much further away. But it’s the best chance that she has to become normal again. It’s also only for a month, so she will be back before you know it,” I assured
“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
