In the midst of everything that unfolded, I found myself in a whirlwind of emotions that I couldn't quite grasp.

As I watched Ruin seamlessly slip into the roles of caregiver and nurturer, something shifted within me. The admiration I held for him begins to transform into a deeper sentiment, a feeling that tiptoed on the edges of my awareness, hinting at a connection that surpassed our professional ties.

In a moment of introspection, I acknowledged the stirrings in my heart, recognizing the kindness and empathy that emanated from Ruin's every gesture. The way he engaged with my children, the tenderness he showed towards me, and the genuine concern that reflected in his eyes all contributed to unraveling the tapestry of my emotions.

As I grappled with this newfound realization, I navigated uncharted waters where admiration bloomed into something more intricate and profound. The boundaries between gratitude, friendship, and affection blurred, painting a portrait of emotions that gently

  • Rejected Me Once, Never Fool Me Twice   Chapter 67

    Tyrone POV The morning air carried the scent of iron and incense, heavy with the kind of silence that warned you something was about to be taken from you. Or maybe revealed. I wasn’t sure which was worse.The Alpha Gods Court stood like a carved monument to judgment tall marble pillars wrapped in vines of silver runes, walls glowing faintly from the ancient power sealed within. The crescent-shaped chamber overlooked the valley, where the mist never seemed to lift. It was beautiful, in a suffocating way.They brought me in with two guards, my wrists bound in enchanted cuffs that burned when I moved too fast. I didn’t fight them. I didn’t even look at them. My eyes stayed on the throne at the far end where the alpha gods king,alpha Ruine sat, cloaked in white and gold, his silver crown gleaming beneath the morning light.Beside him stood Zander, another alpha god of his jaw tight, his expression unreadable,two more alpha gods were sitting at the high podium. Louis, Winter, Aria, Cas

  • Rejected Me Once, Never Fool Me Twice   Chapter 66

    Tyrone POVThe morning after the fair, the packhouse felt heavier. Not tense, exactly, but expectant. I could sense it in the air,something thick, like fog before a storm. The laughter and lights from last night still echoed faintly in the hallways, but the celebration had worn off, leaving a strange quiet behind.I leaned against the window frame of my guest room, arms crossed, watching the training grounds below. Louis was already there, sparring with two warriors. Every movement was sharp, precise, practiced. He wasn’t fighting to prove himself anymore,he already had. He was fighting to stay sharp. To lead. To protect.A future Alpha.And my biggest obstacle.The door creaked open without a knock. I didn’t have to turn to know who it was. Her scent,fresh snow and jasmine,always got to me before her voice did.“You didn’t come down for breakfast,” Winter said softly, her reflection appearing beside mine in the glass. She wore a simple cream sweater and jeans, her hair tied loosely b

    Casey POV The fair was still alive even after sunset. Music played softly through the field, and lanterns floated in the air like glowing orbs drifting with the breeze. Laughter carried through the night , children chasing each other with glowing sticks, couples sharing bites of caramel apples, warriors laughing at the drink stalls.But for me, everything blurred into the background because Louis had my hand in his.He looked like the calm at the center of chaos. The same man everyone looked to for strength , controlled, disciplined ,yet his thumb brushed slow circles against my palm, and his touch was tender in a way that still startled me.I was never used to gentleness.“Are you cold?” he asked, his deep voice breaking through the hum of the crowd.I shook my head. “No. You’re warm enough.”He smiled slightly, his eyes crinkling at the corners. The lantern light caught the gold in his irises ,a reminder of what he was, who he would become. My soon-to-be husband. The next Alpha. A

    Winter POVThe pack grounds never looked like this before.Strings of orange lanterns hung between the trees, glowing like small captured suns. The scent of roasted corn and caramel filled the air, blending with the faint musk of wolves in human skin. Children ran past in tiny costumes, miniature witches with glitter-painted faces, little wolves wearing fuzzy ears that looked too big for their heads. Laughter rolled through the clearing like music.It was the annual Crescent Moon Halloween Fair, a tradition my mother insisted we keep every year. But this time, everything felt different. Maybe because of him.Tyron stood beside me near the bonfire, wearing the most unbothered expression I’d ever seen on a man surrounded by pumpkins and joy. He had on a plain black shirt rolled up at the sleeves and dark jeans, and someone, probably Aria, had managed to convince him to wear a mask shaped like a wolf’s skull. It looked both ridiculous and fitting, in a strange way.He shoved his hands in

  • Rejected Me Once, Never Fool Me Twice   Chapter 63

    Winter’s POVThe first rays of dawn crept through the curtains, casting pale stripes across the room. Tyron’s arm was draped heavily across my waist, pinning me like an anchor. His breathing was deep, steady—thank the goddess. For once, no jolts awake, no cursing at shadows, no sharp demand for space. He had let me stay when the nightmare had shaken him in the night. He hadn’t shoved me out. He hadn’t hardened himself back into that wall of stone he liked to hide behind.A small, unexplainable warmth lingered in my chest because of that. But the morning ahead demanded strategy, not softness.Slowly, carefully, I slid out from under his arm, his warmth trailing behind me as I pulled away. He didn’t stir, not even when the bed dipped with my weight lifting off it. Weeks ago, he would’ve caught me the second I moved, eyes blazing, jaw clenched, telling me to get out. Now… now he stayed asleep, letting me slip back into my own space.By the time I reached my room and changed into jeans an

  • Rejected Me Once, Never Fool Me Twice   Chapter 62

    TyronNights had stopped being silent.When the nightmares ripped through me now, I didn’t wake up alone, shaking in the dark with my chest tight and my wolf clawing at me. Winter slipped in quietly at first, like she thought I might throw her out again. I used to. I used to snarl, to tell her to leave, to pretend that her presence only made the burn of the mate bond worse. But lately, I let her stay.She’d sit on the edge of the bed, whispering low until my breathing steadied, her fingers brushing through my hair like she was coaxing me back from the fire. Sometimes, I’d wake to her curled against me, her hand over my chest as if she could keep the nightmares from clawing their way out.It should’ve made me furious. Weak. Dependent. But instead, I found myself waiting for the sound of her steps on the stairs at night.And every time she came, I kissed her. Sometimes clumsy, sometimes desperate, sometimes slow and drawn out but always. I wanted her to link my recovery to her touch,
