"She mentioned that she doesn't like feeling isolated here. I believe the others will follow suit. It'll only be for the weekend. Besides, we could use some family time before our visit to Mountain," he explained, and I didn't see any reason to object. It sounded like a good idea, especially since I
~Liam~ The words I uttered left my parents in a state of shock, evident from the look in their eyes. My father stood before me, rendered speechless, and I couldn't bring myself to meet my mother's gaze. Though my actions were impulsive, I stood by them wholeheartedly. I had carefully considered ev
"What if Alpha Christian doesn't find them, Mother? What if it's already too late?" I countered, desperation tinging my voice. My father interjected, his tone calm yet resolute. "If Alpha Christian can't locate her, then neither can you. And if time is of the essence, then it's already beyond our r
"I don't know what to say, Liam," Harper began, her tone filled with concern. "Asking to be sent to Grizlo is a lot, considering we were specifically asked to return here for our safety. Don't you think you're taking too great a risk? Mom and Dad will be entangling themselves in a dangerous situati
~Sylvester~ I didn't know how much Liam had grown until he made that dangerous request. Despite my instincts telling me to shut it down, I could see the determination in his eyes. The permission he sought was merely a formality; he had already made up his mind. Liam was just like me, driven by an
I was well aware that time was not on our side, and my children, especially Liam, could grow impatient and take matters into their own hands. The determined look in Liam's eyes troubled me because I knew he wouldn't back down easily. I had to make a choice: either allow him to proceed or find a way
~Liam~Restlessly, I waited in my room, eagerly anticipating my father's summons to his office. He had given me his word that I could be present when he contacted Alpha Christain, and I anxiously awaited that crucial call.Harper had retreated to her room to freshen up, while I remained in mine, con

"I... I’m clueless," I stammered as he trailed kisses along my neck, each touch igniting a wild sensation within me. "Same here," he managed between breaths, his hand gradually tracing up my thigh. His confession reassured me, and at that moment, I embraced the idea of exploration and discovery wit
"I was scared, partly because of Sophia's presence. She seemed perfect, so normal, and I…" I stumbled over my words, the memory stoking an odd ache within me. The pain from that day was stubborn, refusing to fade. "I felt like I couldn't measure up, Li. But my sister insisted that I should give it
"Since we can't venture out alone, I convinced Mrs. Mirabel to join us," he explained, and a surge of excitement led me to embrace him tightly. His consideration touched me deeply. I had yearned to return to the park ever since that day. Even though the stream wasn't quite the same as the lake, it
~Josephine~ A rush of excitement coursed through me, and a smile tugged at Liam's lips as he stood by the doorway. Since there was nothing to grab in my room, I slipped on my slippers and made my way outside. "Did your father get in touch?" Liam inquired as we descended the staircase, and I nodded
"I have to hope that we are fated to be together or that we possess the strength to do what his parents did: defy expectations and reject what fate has in store for us," I mused aloud, causing Charlotte's expression to take on a tinge of concern."Let us not worry about things that are yet to come a
"Because you are my friend, and he is my cousin, and I know of Sophia, so I want to know why you will allow yourself to get carried away," she responded, her tone genuinely concerned. I offered her a smile, touched by her sincerity."There's nothing between him and Sophia," I reassured, to which she
~Josephine~The kappas coming from Lucland didn't reach Grizlo Hospital until late, subjecting us all to a lengthy and tense wait. When they finally did arrive, Charlotte couldn't contain her joy. Meanwhile, I observed Justin issuing them instructions, my only thought being an earnest desire to depa
Seeing that the Royal family is somehow involved in this mess, I request that the council get involved and assist me in solving this matter," He said, and people began to murmur. "How was the Royal family implicated? Isn't this your jurisdiction, alpha Zakharov?" Pamela asked, and he nodded, then m
