The morning feels like a fairytale. It's been a while since I last woke up and felt this safe. Even though I can defend myself, it feels good to be with someone who stands in front of me like a rock wall. No matter how many imperfections and cracks Vince has, he won't budge an inch when it comes to my safety.
I turn to look at the handsome man I'm proud to call mine. There are millions of women, but he has eyes only for me, despite the scars and burdens I carry. I place a hand on his cheek and sigh. I didn't think this day might come.
Thinking back to the days I spent in the Alliance, I did feel safe, but only because I slept with a gun under my pillow. Now, I don't need a gun or a knife at hand- I have Vincent, the mate I don't deserve. Whoe

Vincent povThe drive back to the pack is silent. Enya refused to pack what little she had, so Claudia had to help me solve the problem. Well, as best she could- she went downstairs to talk to my mate while I yelled around like a maniac, asking which things were hers and which weren't. Surely, Claudia was the one talking to me because Enya refused. She's not even looking at me. The surprise I left in my car didn't move her either. As soon as I opened the door and told her it was all for her, Enya whispered something in Claudia's ear, and grandma announced that my mate didn't like chocolate or flowers. So much for trying my best.As we near the pack's territory, I lose it and speak up. "I get it; I screwed up again. But you don't need to focus on the silent treatment right now; instead, you can tell me what I can do to fix this mess. I

Aros povVince took Enya home two days ago, and to say their relationship is rocky is an understatement. They live in the same room, but they live like roommates, not mates. At least, judging by the information I got from Vince. When it comes to Enya- she's not talking to me. The only person she talks to is Bella, and most of Enya's time is spent with the little girl on the floor of the Omegas. They run around, laugh, and play when no one is about, but as soon as Vince, me, or another pack member shows up near her, Enya disappears. Not necessarily Enya as a whole human being, but the joyful woman and bright personality fade quickly. Sometimes I feel like she leaves the shell out in the open and hides deep within herself just to avoid everyone.Today, Enya was supposed to attend the pack meeting, but she locked herself in the bedroom an

Vincent povThe pack meeting was supposed to be a good opportunity for Enya to get to know everyone better. One by one, she would meet the pack members, learn a little more about them, and get used to her life among so many shifters. Then, we could decide when to hold the ceremony to announce her as Luna. But the longer I waited, the more anxious I became. Eventually, we had to send a servant to check on her, and the answer we got after a few minutes wasn't what I expected. She refused to leave the room.Aros is coming with me because I don't want to be left alone. Enya showed me her attitude, and it's nothing less than plain cold. She doesn't talk to anyone but Bella, and while I love their bond, it still pisses me off. I'm her mate, for fuck's sake.I knock on the door

Enya povThe doctors promised that Brent and the baby would be fine. Aros finally calmed down, so we have one less problem. I don't know if they'd get over the loss of a child, and if word got out in the pack, healing would be even more complicated for the Beta couple. It's one thing for a couple to go through hard times and another for so many people to remind them of what happened.I promised Aros that Vince won't hear a word about the baby or the risk of miscarriage, so I need to find something to distract the big baby. I may have a solution.Vince wants to go on a date, and I know he'll suggest something expensive or a fancy restaurant, but I see no reason to spend that kind of money on a one-time fun. To each their own, but I'd rather stay home and watch a movie or play a board g

Vincent povEven though the only thing I want is to claim this woman, I must restrain myself. How could one force their mate to have sex with them while the mate just started speaking to them? One step at a time, Enya slowly gets closer to the pack and me. I couldn't possibly make this better if I announced that I'm horny and I need a release that only she could provide. To call the things by the proper names- just the thought of having sex with her makes me hard. I'm not particularly keen on walking around the packhouse with an erection, but if that's what I have to do until she's ready, I'll learn to live with blue balls.Enya giggles as I open the bedroom door and throw her onto the bed. I'm trying my best to be as gentle as possible, and it seems my behaviour amuses her. Good, at least I can put a smile on those pretty lips.

Enya povVincent keeps cursing and mumbling something, but every other word he uses has to be heat. I have no idea what he's trying to tell me, but it's definitely hot in here. When he's incredibly close, I don't feel like I'm about to vomit my guts out, and the burning calms down. That's why I keep trying to get closer. Something tells me I'll feel much better once I get the skin to skin contact with Vince, but for the first time, he pushes me away. All of a sudden, he changes his mind. For God knows how long Vincent has been trying to get me in his bed, and when I give him a damn opportunity, he doesn't take it. Is there something wrong with me that he won't touch me?Whatever that feeling is, I don't enjoy even a moment of it. My body feels like I'm about to burn alive, and as soon as Vince pulls away from me, a terrifying scream es

Vincent povI have no idea what day it is today. When I first came downstairs to the cells, I tried to keep myself busy by counting seconds, minutes, and hours. But after a while, it all became a pile, and I lost track of time. All I did was argue with my wolf and pray to the Moon Goddess that Enya's okay. I'm scared to think of all the possible consequences because no one knows what can happen to a human during the heat.I've asked Aros to reach out to the Council of Elders and send them a message on my behalf. In short, it's a letter with a lot of questions about our past. I need to find out if anyone has ever experienced the strange things Enya and I are experiencing. I know human mates are not as rare as some wolves might think, but far too many of our own laws keep many wolves from accepting their mates. It's okay to be mated w

Aros povWe are only five days in, but it seems like Enya is handling the heat like a champ. Besides, she's been feeling much better for a few hours now, so I think the heat will be over by the end of the day. That would be perfect because I was forced to move Vince to another cell- since he's been raging for three days. He hasn't told me why he's been acting like an idiot, but I have a feeling it isn't just about the heat and his wolf wanting to break out. He wouldn't try to get to Enya's father if it was about those things. As soon as the heat stops, I'm getting Vince over here and drag his ass through the packhouse if he refuses to tell me what happened.On the bright side, Brent is fine, he was discharged from the hospital yesterday, and our baby is healthy. These days have forced me to face reality and accept things as they are. B

ENYAA week ago we got married. I didn't wear the traditional white dress. Instead, one of the Omegas made a beautiful fire pattern dress for me to pay my respects to my father and his tribe.There were too many people around for us to end the evening on a somewhat quiet note. His father walked me down the aisle, Aros was Vince's best man, and my mother helped Brent care for their newborn daughter. My little girl was given the honour of being the flower girl. Yes, we chose to adopt- the child that grew closest to me. We adopted Bella, and since that day, we have been an official family. I think it all worked out for the best- all three of us were robbed of family and found each other when we needed it most.Vince and I decided we don't need a honeymoon- our

Enya povIf it hadn't been for that lovely lady, I wouldn't have been able to accept the news as fast as I did. Everything the pack doctor told me felt like a punch below the belt. Still, I'm glad she told me the truth and offered to tell me more about the history of werewolves. If Mother Nature decided I couldn't have children, so be it.The only person I'm really worried about is Vince. He was at the hospital and stormed off as soon as the doctor told him everything. It's been hours since Aros tried to mind-link him and about thirty minutes since Aros left the packhouse. I hope he finds him as soon as possible and drags this stubborn man home. Vince needs to sit down with me and talk. And while I know the news hurts him- there are some things in life we can't change. And this, unfortunately, is one of them.

Vincent povI'm lost.So fucking desperate for an answer. Or at least for someone to jump around the corner with a camera in hand, yelling "jokes on you".I've been wandering the woods for hours. I don't have it in me to go back to Enya and break her beyond repair. Although she dreaded the possibility of pregnancy, I know she wanted to be a mother later. Neither of us ever had a real family, and now we have no chance to start our own.I hoped that getting some fresh air would help me think, but it doesn't. All I can picture is the pain in her eyes when she encounters a pregnant pack member or one of those kids. Enya is stuck in a place that will constantly remind her of everything she will never have.

Vincent pov Before I leave Enya in the bedroom, I check her forehead to make sure she doesn't have a fever. The fact that she has heat after such a short period of time from the previous one is strange. I have many responsibilities, and I should discuss a few things with Melinda, but instead of getting to work, I take a detour to the hospital. As soon as I open the door, I see a bunch of nurses. They all stop and wait for me to acknowledge them, but I won't. Not because I don't respect them, but these women gave away their plan without thinking that I might hear these rumours. The nurses and some Omegas decided to find out how loyal I am to my mate and basically tried to set up their Luna. I'll deal with them later, now- I'm a man on a mission. I walk past the nur

Enya povI'm speechless. As I stare back at those pitch-black eyes, I forget how to breathe. I notice a shift between the colours in his eyes-Vince is fighting back, but I doubt his wolf will let him have the upper hand. Now that the beast has the upper hand, he'll use it for the alone time he's been trying to get for so long.Damian reaches for the faucet and turns off the water. I don't expect much from a wolf; he's supposed to run on all fours and be an animal, but to my surprise, he acts kind of human. He steps out of the shower, holds my hand as I follow, and reaches for a towel. Though I assume he'd need it, Damian wraps it around my body and grabs another to dry me off."Mate can't walk wet, will catch a cold." He mumbles to himself once again, surprising me so much that I can't beli

Enya povHer words make sense, so do her intentions, but deep down, I'm hurt beyond repair.All my life, I've been nothing more than a puppet in someone's hands, and it was foolish of me to think that would stop. It wouldn't. Sooner or later, someone would find a way to use me as they pleased. The same as my newfound mother did.She can tell me she had only good intentions, but I heard what she said. I heard her claim that she wanted to hear those screams. To me, it sounds more like she desired revenge more than anything else. Maybe we'll get closer and learn to understand each other after a while, but I need time to get there."Vince, can you please walk me to the bedroom? I need some alone time," I don't look at my

Vincent povI accompany Melinda to the kitchen and show her where she can find anything to her liking. Like her daughter, she complains that she is allergic to basil, which makes sense.However, a few details confuse me, and I hope Melinda has the answers I'm seeking. "Melinda, can I ask you a few questions?" I turn to her, but I see half of her body peeking out from behind the refrigerator door.She closes the door and grins at me. Melinda's mouth is covered in frosting. Yeah, a true lady there. I roll my eyes, and my attitude doesn't go unnoticed. "Sure thing, Pussysaurus-Rex." She bursts out laughing. "Sorry, I couldn't resist the temptation to use that brilliant nickname. And don't look at me like that; I've been complaining about being hungry for weeks- my prayers have be

Enya povMy hands tremble, my grip on Vince's hand tightens to the point where I feel him flinch in surprise. But a moment later, I push my mate away from me and free myself from his grip. Step by step, I move closer to his cell. Though Vince is doing his best to hold me back, there will be no end to the suffering of those who hurt me. Starting with the man who pretended to be my father."Vince, Melinda," I whisper, but apparently, I'm loud enough to get their attention. I can't look at my mother, nor can I address her as such. I have no right to do so- I killed the man she loved, I slaughtered my own father and spilt his blood like a pig. If anything, I have no right to be near her, so I cast my gaze to the dirty floor. "I need you both out of here. Please," my voice breaks and tears run down my cheeks as memories flood my mind. Both of the

Vincent povMelinda hasn't changed a bit. She's still the same loving and bubbly personality I remember her to be.On our way to the packhouse, I keep throwing glances at Enya. She's visibly anxious, and while her mother keeps asking questions, the only moment my mate speaks up is to answer a question. She doesn't ask her own questions, though I know she has many. Perhaps in time, I'm sure Enya needs a moment or two to get used to the situation. After all, it's not every day that your dead mother comes back to life and appears in front of you. I couldn't blame Enya because I would react the same way.After a moment of awkward silence, Melinda turns her attention to me. "Vincent, how is your father? It's been a while since I last met Roma. Oh, and I'm sorry about your ste
