Granny prepared rooms for us when we visit,” Cayden said.
Granny? That was fast.” Ellis grumbled, and | giggled at the slight
hint of jealousy in his tone. Cayden hasn’t called him Dad yet.

My room roof opens up when | press a button and a starry sky ceilings!” Solara says excitedly.

And | see the galaxy!” Cayden announced.
| wonder how long CC took to prepare this. In the corner of my vision,
| could see David and Charlotte. | thought they were talking, but | could be wrong.
Once we reached the garden. The setup took my breath away. It was set beautifully and elegantly, and the long table had so much food. Most were my favorites. Beluga Caviar, Frittata, baked eggs, and so

much more!
Frittata,” | mused, looking at CC. For the first time since | set my feet in her home, she gave me a genuine smile..
| know how much you like them. Or maybe that changed too,” she snickered, glancing at David. She tried to lack emotion in her voice,
but it was there.
“I still love them. Thank you, CC,” | told her with a cute smile. She resisted the urge to smile and walked away.
Our names were written on small white notes, and mine was on Ellis’ right hand as he sat at the head of the table, putting our daughter on his lap. Next to me was Cayden, and then Luis, followed by Melody and her husband. David and Charlotte, both frowning, sat further from
us.
‘Gotta love CC,’ Vee giggled.

| was surprised when Zeyneb appeared, looking as breathtaking as ever, her long, flawless legs on full display through the sheer dress she wore,” Surprised?!”
| got to my feet and rushed to hug her. | missed this f ucking woman
so much!
We pulled apart. We exchanged pleasantries. Zeyneb caressed my cheek,” Yoooh, Mama, you’re more gorgeous than ever,” she winked.
Look who's talking, stunning. Matrimony suits you,” | complimented, but she frowned. A low possessive growl erupted, and | turned my head to my best friend, Luis. | stepped away from Zeyneb and gasped before taking another glance at Luis. His fists clutched, and | could tell he ground his teeth together by the pulsing of his veins. He was
angry.
His one-night stand!’ Vee and | exclaimed.
Zeyneb was sitting in front of Luis, and the sexual tension between the two was so perceptible that some people were picking up on it.
We started to eat, and | must say, brunch was delightful, and everything was delectable. The conversation flowed naturally amongst everyone at the table. CC even asked Axton and Finley some questions about their age and class.
Jace stood up before we could finish our meal and excused himself. He said he was traveling and had to be at the hangar by noon. | knew he was going to see Lilac, and | hoped things would turn out better between them.

Lilac’s pov
Jace was so easy to Love, and each day, | fell deeper in love with him even though it was a long-distance relationship. He made my life so beautiful and less lonely. In a dark world, he was a blinding ray of
light.
| shifted into my Lycan form two years later for the first time and left home. | went to be with Jace in his pack, and then we moved to Ellis’ pack when he asked him to be beta. We were really happy together despite our parents’ disapproval, mostly mine because no one would be bringing in money for them, but they suddenly decided to let us be. It was a shock to me because they were so determined to get me
back home.
| walked into my childhood home. It was a two-story house. | could tell it had been improved greatly since | was here,
‘Hello?” | slowly called out.
‘Dad?”
It was eerily silent. | heard sniffing upstairs and ran there. | nearly pulled the door off its hinges as | entered my father’s bedroom. Shawna was on the floor, sobbing as cleaned the floor.
11
Shawna?”
She looked up at me, and tears fell from her eyes as she got to her feet. She threw her heavy body towards me in a hug and almost knocked me to the floor.
“|
Oh, honey. You heard our calls. You listened to our messages,” she cried, holding me tighter. | pushed her off me.
What's with you, and why are you cleaning,” As long as | could remember, she didn’t know how to do any chores. The housemaid did.
11
We can’t afford a housekeeper anymore,” she whispered, tears
rolling down her face. | rolled my eyes and went out of the room. She followed me.
“|
Are things so bad?” | asked, searching through the fridge for a snack. | couldn’t find anything, and | was so hungry.
“Yes. Even our garden boy cussed and left us after the check bounced at the bank yesterday... It was three months past his due. We are struggling, plus my darling, you haven't been too helpful lately. You don’t send us any money!” She complained. | sent them money every month for their upkeep, but they blew through it so fast that | stopped altogether,
“Where’s Nat?” | asked. Nat was their daughter. She was eight years younger than me and just the sweetest kid. So different from her
mother. Shawna scowled.
