Chapter 1
"Congratulations, Luna," he announced. "You're expecting twins."
Aurora's face split into a wide, radiant grin, joy spreading through her like wildfire. She placed a hand on her belly, trying to
imagine the tiny lives growing within her. Twins.
Two small souls were now part of her, a part of her and Fenrir, her mate and husband. The weight of it filled her with warmth, and
she couldn't wait to share the news.
Fenrir would be overjoyed; she was certain of it. For years, she'd seen him as the strong, resilient leader of the Onyx Shadow
Pack, carrying his responsibilities with unshakeable strength. But she knew he would melt when he heard this news, his
hardened Alpha demeanor softening for the family they would soon welcome.
wanted the moment to be perfect when she shared her news.
Finally, the front door open and Fenrir stepped into the foyer, his powerful frame filling the entryway. Aurora felt her heart skip a
beat as he came into view, yet the fatigue in his posture was clear.
His expression was colder than usual, his eyes hardened with a distant look she couldn't place. Despite his exhaustion, he was
still strikingly handsome, his dark hair tousled from a long day, the broad lines of his shoulders radiating strength.
"Welcome home," she greeted warmly, moving to embrace him. But Fenrir barely met her gaze, his eyes distant, his lips pressed
into a tight line. He didn't return her smile, and instead of the hug she expected, he stepped back, putting a slight distance
between them. "Aurora," he said, his tone devoid of its usual warmth, "we need to talk."
The unexpected coolness in his voice gave her pause. She could feel the joy she'd been holding onto begin to flicker.
Swallowing her nervousness, she forced a soft smile. "Is everything alright?"
Fenrir hesitated, his gaze fixed on the ground before finally meeting hers. "Arianna... she's back."
Aurora's heart plummeted, the joy she'd felt only moments ago slipping away. Arianna. She'd heard the stories-the girl who had
captured Fenrir's heart before their marriage, the one who had disappeared mysteriously. Arianna was his first love, the one who
had, in some ways, shaped him into the man he was today.
"Back?" she echoed, her voice barely a whisper.
Fenrir nodded, his expression distant, a guarded look crossing his face. "Yes. She returned to the pack while you were out."
He paused, seeming to struggle with his words. "She... she wants a place here. Among us."
The statement hung heavy in the air, the weight of his past pressing down on them. Aurora forced herself to keep her expression
neutral, unwilling to reveal the flicker of hurt and confusion that was quickly overwhelming her.
She had always known about his history with Arianna, but she hadn't expected it to resurface like this, uninvited and unresolved.
In that moment, she knew she couldn't tell him about the pregnancy, not now. The excitement she had felt just hours ago turned
into a quiet, painful ache. It didn't seem right to share this happiness with him when his mind was clearly on someone else. For
now, the news would remain hers alone.
With a quiet resolve, she nodded, choosing her words carefully. "I understand," she replied softly, swallowing back the emotions
that threatened to surface. "I'm... here for you, Fenrir."
Fenrir shake his head and muttered. "Let's get divorced."
