#Chapter 161: Sweet Gestures

OliviaAs I set up my yoga mat in my usual spot at the studio, my heart was pounding with anticipation. Nathan had said he would come to my next prenatal yoga class, but would he really? I wasn’t sure what to expect.The past few days had been a whirlwind of emotions. After hardly speaking to each other for months, Nathan was suddenly back in my life; and the reasons behind it were questionable.“I am happy to have Nathan back,” I told Angela over tea the morning after our first yoga class together. “But it just feels… I don’t know. It hurts that he only decided to come back because he clearly got jealous over Levi.”Angela nodded slowly, her eyes narrowing as she thought about my words. “I think he just needed to realize how much you meant to him, that’s all,” she said after a while. “And I guess seeing you with Levi made him realize that.”“Don’t you think it’s a bit concerning, though?” I asked, feeling my shoulders sag a bit. “I mean, he basically ditched me—”“He didn’t ditch you

#Chapter 162: The Weight of Accusations

OliviaNathan’s face fell when I accused him, and his eyes widened as if he was genuinely shocked by my words.We were sitting on a bench outside of the yoga studio. The early afternoon sun warmed us, filtered by a tree that towered over our heads. Across the street, kids played happily in the park, squealing and laughing excitedly as they pelted each other with water balloons.Everything felt so peaceful and calm. My father’s innocence was revealed. Colin and Jenifer’s treachery had been stopped in its tracks, and Nathan was the perfect image of an Alpha, working hard to remedy the damage his father had done over the years.But on the inside, I still felt turmoil. With Nathan’s sudden return after hardly speaking to me for two months, I didn’t know what to think.“Olivia, I didn’t mean it like that,” he stammered, his hands clasping and unclasping nervously in his lap. “I didn’t only come back because I was jealous.“Oh?” I asked, folding my arms across my chest. “Why did you come ba

#Chapter 163: Unexpected Arrivals

OliviaAnother two weeks flew by since my yoga class with Nathan.Our lives were separate now, but as intertwined as they could be; when Nathan wasn’t busy with his Alpha business, he was stopping by the villa to check on me, help with chores and yard work, and take me to appointments.It seemed as though he really was keeping true to his word to be there for me, and it was nice. I was happy to have him back, even just so I could see him.But more than once, I found him sleeping on my front porch, his head lolling onto his chest.“You’re going to get yourself killed,” I said one day, handing him a cup of iced tea when I found him sleeping on the porch on a particularly hot afternoon. “You’re burning the candle at both ends.”“I’m fine,” Nathan said, gratefully sipping the tea I gave him. “Don’t worry about me. Worry about yourself.”However, despite Nathan’s words of reassurance, I wasn’t convinced. All I could picture was him falling asleep at the wheel from all of his running around

#Chapter 164: False Alarm

Olivia“It was a false alarm,” the doctor, a pleasant older woman with gray hair and smile lines around her eyes, said as she finished her examination. “It happens this late in the game.”I was both relieved and somewhat embarrassed as the doctor confirmed that it wasn’t time for the baby to come. After hours of uncertainty, it turned out that the cramps I had been having were perfectly normal. I felt a little silly for getting so worked up and acting as though the world was ending.Sheepishly, I glanced over at Nathan, wondering if he would be annoyed by my overreaction.Yet, the look on Nathan’s face was of sheer concern, not amusement or annoyance. His eyes met mine, and I could see he was just as shaken as I was.“Olivia,” the doctor began, her voice stern but gentle, “I know this was a scare, but it’s a sign that your body needs to rest. A lot. You're pushing yourself too hard, and it’s not healthy for you or the… pregnancy.”The doctor’s pause before saying ‘pregnancy’ was somet

#Chapter 165: Moving Day

OliviaThe next morning, the sun was barely over the horizon when the sound of a truck pulling into the driveway yanked me from sleep. Startled, I struggled out of bed and waddled over to the window, peering through the curtains to see what was going on.My eyes widened as I spotted Nathan standing beside a large moving truck, talking animatedly with a couple of movers. Boxes and furniture were already being pulled from the truck.“What on earth…” I muttered to myself, pulling on my robe before rushing downstairs to confront him.“Nathan!” I called out as I reached the front door, my heart pounding in my chest. “What are you doing?”As I spoke, a mover brushed past me without a word, holding an ornate side table in his meaty hands and nearly toppling me over in the process.Nathan turned to me, a wide grin on his face, looking like a child caught with his hand in the cookie jar. “I’m moving in, Liv,” he announced, as though it were the most natural thing in the world. “Did you forget

#Chapter 166: Remembrances

OliviaThat night, I walked into the kitchen to find Nathan, clad in an apron, stirring a pot of something that smelled divine. It was his first night back, and it seemed he was hell-bent on making a lasting impression.“Wow, this smells amazing! What's cooking?” I asked, watching as he expertly seasoned whatever was in the pot.He turned to me with a gleaming smile. “Potato and leek soup,” he replied. “And I’ve got a chicken in the oven, and rice cooking as well.”“That’s… amazing, Nathan,” I said, walking over and peering into the oven to see a glistening chicken sitting on the rack, surrounded by vegetables. I furrowed my brow and looked up at Nathan with surprise on my face. “But why do all of this? You don’t have to go all out like that.”“I know, I know,” Nathan replied, wiping his hands on his apron. “But, check this out.” He paused, pulling out a cookbook from the drawer. It was titled ‘100 Recipes for Expecting Mothers’ and had an illustration of a pregnant woman on the front

#Chapter 167: Jade Wolf

OliviaMy eyes went wide as the voice faded, a cold chill running down my spine. I couldn’t believe what had just happened. Was it really Jade, my wolf? After all these years?“What’s wrong?” Nathan asked, his concern evident in his voice. His warm arms were still wrapped around me, but my mind was far away.I looked at him, my heart pounding, but managed a shaky smile. “Nothing,” I said, more to convince myself than him. “It’s nothing. I’m just a bit tired, that's all.”Nathan's eyes searched mine, but he didn’t press further. “Well, maybe it’s time for bed then,” he suggested gently, squeezing my shoulders.I nodded, letting him guide me upstairs, but my thoughts were a whirlwind. As I prepared for bed, I couldn’t shake the voice from my mind. It was familiar. I had heard it before, long ago. I was sure of it.Later that night, as Nathan’s soft snores came from down the hallway, I sat up, unable to sleep. I had been tossing and turning for the past two hours, completely unable to qu

#Chapter 168: Faint Lines

OliviaThe day had begun like any other, but as I sat across from Angela in our favorite coffee shop, I knew something was different.There was a question burning inside me, and I couldn’t hold it back any longer. The connection between Nathan and my wolf had grown too strong to ignore, and it was time to confide in someone.After days of hearing little snippets, echoes of my wolf’s voice every time I brushed hands with Nathan or came too close to him in the hallways of the villa, I was certain that he was connected somehow.Angela was my closest friend, and I trusted her more than anyone else. And that was why I invited her here today: to tell her what had been happening.“So, Angela, there’s something I need to talk to you about,” I began, my fingers nervously tracing the edge of my coffee cup.She looked up from her book, her eyes widening slightly as she took in my serious expression. “Sure, Liv. What’s going on?”I took a deep breath, searching for the right words. “You know abou

#Chapter 169: Unfinished Business

OliviaI went home after my coffee date with Angela with a heavy heart.What if I did kiss Nathan, just to test out Angela’s theory? What would I truly uncover? Would I discover that Nathan was indeed my fated mate, bound to help me regain my wolf’s presence? Or would I discover nothing, and do nothing except for confusing my friend and complicating our already-rocky relationship?If I kissed Nathan and nothing came of it, I wasn’t sure how I could live with myself. We had already made countless promises to one another that we wouldn’t cross the lines we had created for the sake of our friendship and for my baby’s health, but now I wasn’t so sure. Nathan had held up his end of the deal, but could I?And regardless of the outcome of the proposed kiss, would he forgive me for only kissing him to test out a theory?That night, I came home to a fragrant smell emanating from the kitchen.“Salmon and rice,” Nathan said before I even had a chance to ask what he was cooking. “I know you don’t

#Chapter 170: Little Animals, Big Feelings

NathanThe morning sun spilled through the gaps in the curtains as I uncapped the first can of yellow paint, the aroma of fresh possibility filling the room.Olivia had showed me the nursery last night, a room filled with hope but untouched by human hands. It was one of the sunniest rooms in the villa—it used to be her aunt’s study, but had been left empty since her aunt passed away—and deserved a bright, cheerful interior.I could see the anxiety in her eyes last night, the embarrassment, and the longing. But mostly, I saw the love she had for the child she was yet to meet. And I decided to surprise her with a freshly painted room when she awoke.That morning, I woke up extra early, just as the sun was rising, to get to work. With any luck, I would have the first coat of paint finished by the time she awoke. But I had more plans than just painting the walls yellow. I had a special surprise for Olivia, and I hoped that it would make her smile.As I dipped the brush into the soft yello
