Who thinks that Cathal will be the best big brother ever???
DimitriI expected Ayda to be happy today, but I didn’t expect the sobbing tears. Cathal had looked worried like something was wrong, but I just shook my head. I can feel her relief and happiness that she’s giving me a little girl.I’ll admit, I’m pretty excited about it too. As much as I don’t want
“I will, Dad. But…come home, okay. I don’t want to lose you either.”“I know, Cathal. I’m not ready to die, but things happen in war. So, stay alert and I’ll do my best to get home to the two of you as soon as possible.”I know it’s a lot to put on my young son, but being the leader of this pack is
AydaI woke up alone for the first time since coming to Dimitri’s pack. No, not Dimitri's pack. It’s our pack now. I don’t like waking up alone. I don’t like knowing that my mate is fighting a horrible battle while I sleep, but that’s Dimitri. He’s the most unselfish person I’ve ever met.I’ve just

AydaI come awake slowly, feeling groggy, unsure what happened or where I am. My stomach hurts. Did Masuzyo take me roughly again? I’m not throbbing between my thighs so I don’t think that’s it. My face is throbbing, though. Did he hit me? Yes, he slapped me. Why did he slap me?I think hard, trying
“Do you want me to tell them to kill him? If you want him to die more quickly, I tell them to do it.”I think about it, think about every horrible thing he’s done to me, to Asena, to our son, to Cathal, to Dimitri, to Kelsey and Harper, and what he attempted to do to my daughter. “No, let the pack h
