When he usually stayed by the balcony whenever he was here or while he waddled to the Maribel’s partaking, loud and chirpy noises were flowing around him, seeping within the alpha and bringing along with them a muffled, stifling ache of sorts. So it’s a happy family, huh, Maribel and Knox’s neighbors. He wondered who lived there.Axel had let out a deep sigh, hands shaking as he unlocked the guest door and let his dark and silent home consume his soul. Having finished his nightly routine, taking a long, refreshing shower, and having a simple meal for one, he had trudged to the balcony, a chilled beer can snug in his hands. It was the only companion he had to re

Oh, well, it wouldn’t last too long anyway.“Cue waterworks in 3, 2—”This time Maribel didn’t get to finish his countdown when Ari’s wails filled the entranceway.

Her family might have promised Father but if she calls it off, it’s all over for you.” Axel declared firmly, his gaze locked onto his brother's.
