00:00I was nobody until the night the kingdom's most powerful alpha crashed into my life.
00:05He swore he'd come back to claim me as his Luna.
00:09I waited six years, then my stepmother sold me and my son to a club downtown.
00:14And that's when I saw him again.
00:18The two men showed up at our door on a Tuesday.
00:21Mean faces, guns at their hips.
00:23My stepmother Lisa was grinning.
00:25She held up a thick stack of cash and waited in her palm.
00:30Come on.
00:31There's a club on the east side.
00:33The madam says you've got a pretty face.
00:35Worth good money.
00:38Lisa, you can't do this.
00:40Dad, help me.
00:42My father sat hunched on the couch.
00:44His lips parted.
00:45Say one word, one word, and I walk.
00:48I'm never coming back.
00:49My father's mouth closed.
00:51His eyes dropped to the floor.
00:52Nothing came out.
00:54Lisa smiled.
00:55Lisa walked over and took my chin between her fingers.
00:58Six years ago, you came crawling back here pregnant.
01:00No mate, no mark.
01:02I should have thrown you out that day.
01:03Lisa, please.
01:03But I'm soft.
01:04I let you stay.
01:06I let you eat.
01:07Yeah.
01:07You did three jobs, and every paycheck went into my pocket.
01:09You think that fed your little bastard?
01:11That barely covered the rent on the room you slept in.
01:12The night you gave birth.
01:14Remember that one?
01:15Where was your great alpha?
01:17You're just a stupid omega and fucking poor.
01:20No one would marry you.
01:24Mommy!
01:24Aiden threw himself at my legs and held on.
01:26Don't take my mommy!
01:27Lisa kicked him hard.
01:29He hit the floor.
01:30Don't touch my son!
01:31Take her.
01:32The men grabbed my arms.
01:33They started dragging me toward the door.
01:35If your coward of a lover hadn't run off and left you, I wouldn't have to sell you tonight.
01:40My fingers closed around the rose pendant.
01:44Six years ago, my colleagues bullied me.
01:47They dumped me in an abandoned industrial park.
01:49I came across him.
01:52Barely conscious.
01:55Help me.
01:56I promise I'll marry you.
01:59Before I could answer, he kissed me.
02:01Then we had sex.
02:07When it was over, he reached up and pulled this pendant off his neck.
02:10This is my pack's mark.
02:12I'll come back for you.
02:13Don't lose it.
02:15Then he turned and vanished into the shadows of the trees.
02:20I gripped the pendant hard.
02:21He would come for me.
02:22He definitely would.
02:26The men dragged us through a back door into a hallway.
02:30A woman was waiting at the end of the hall.
02:33Pretty.
02:34Younger than I expected.
02:35Told you.
02:36She'll bring you good money.
02:38The madam's eyes dropped to Aiden.
02:40He was still gripping my leg.
02:42Take the boy too.
02:43500 extra.
02:44He'll work.
02:45Floors.
02:46Arrins.
02:47Whatever you need.
02:49No!
02:50You can't!
02:51A guard caught me by the shoulders and slammed me back against the wall.
02:55Your mother's dead.
02:56Your father's a coward.
02:58Who's coming for you, Aria?
03:00Nobody.
03:01If your man hadn't run off, I wouldn't have to sell you here.
03:03So accept it.
03:05Be a good girl.
03:06Service the men.
03:07Maybe they'll feed you.
03:09The madam clapped her hands.
03:12Tonight.
03:13Special guest.
03:14Get her ready.
03:16Get her ready.
03:18Yeah!
03:22Three women dragged me into a back room.
03:24They tore my clothes off.
03:25They forced me into something that barely covered me.
03:29Don't hurt my mommy!
03:30Please!
03:31I stopped fighting.
03:32I stood still.
03:33I have a child.
03:34I'll do any other work.
03:35I'll clean.
03:36I'll wash dishes.
03:38Anything.
03:38Just not this.
03:40Sweet of you.
03:41But no.
03:42Get the whip.
03:45The first lash came down.
03:47I bit my tongue and kept quiet.
03:49The second.
03:50The third.
03:50The door burst open.
03:52Aiden ran in.
03:53He threw his small body across mine.
03:56Hit me instead!
03:57Don't hurt my mommy!
03:58I rolled over and pulled him under me.
04:00The next lash hit my back.
04:02I locked my arms around him.
04:03I can't die.
04:04He's coming back.
04:05I have to wait.
04:06Suddenly, I heard voices outside the door.
04:12Boss.
04:13It's been six years.
04:15Maybe it's time.
04:17No.
04:19I put that pendant around her neck myself.
04:21I made her a promise.
04:23I'll move heaven and earth to find her.
04:26Every part of me froze.
04:27That voice.
04:28Six years.
04:29I had not forgotten it.
04:31I shoved the woman pinning me down.
04:34I crawled toward the door.
04:36Mommy?
04:36Stay here.
04:37Stay down.
04:38I pulled myself up using the door frame.
04:40Blood ran down my legs.
04:41I stepped into the hallway.
04:43A man stood at the far end.
04:45His back was to me.
04:47Help me.
04:48His eyes locked on mine.
04:50The same eyes from that night.
04:52His whole body went rigid.
04:56Boss.
04:57Too many eyes.
04:58Don't make a scene.
04:59The man stopped.
05:00Hands grabbed me from behind.
05:02Where do you think you're going, bitch?
05:04They yanked me back into the room.
05:06My head hit the floor.
05:07I kept my eyes on him through the doorway.
05:09He was still looking at me.
05:11The door slammed shut.
05:12You won't do this the easy way?
05:13Fine.
05:14Throw her in the cellar.
05:15The brat, too.
05:15No food.
05:16A few days down there will fix her attitude.
05:18In the cell, Aiden curled into my arms.
05:21His whole body was shaking.
05:22Mommy, are we going to die down here?
05:25No, baby.
05:25We're not going to die.
05:26I unclasped the pendant from my neck.
05:28My fingers were trembling.
05:29I fastened it around his.
05:30Because I saw your daddy.
05:31He's here.
05:32My daddy?
05:33My real daddy?
05:34Yes.
05:34Is he coming for us?
05:36I looked down at the small face.
05:38Yes, he would.
05:41Footsteps in the hall.
05:42Then, the door swung open.
05:44The madam was back with my parents.
05:46Now, she planned to get my parents to talk me into obeying.
05:49My dad lowered his head in shame.
05:52Just accept your fate or keep this up and your son will die because of your stubbornness.
05:57Aiden suddenly bolted out the door.
05:59I shoved past the madam and chased after him.
06:01Aiden ran to the strangers and knelt down.
06:03Please!
06:04Someone save my mom!
06:06I'll give you my most precious treasure!
06:08Brat!
06:09What a pity.
06:09You're ruining our fun.
06:11Seize them!
06:13A door was cracked open.
06:15We stumbled through it.
06:16Suddenly, I crashed right into someone's chest.
06:19I looked up and my heart stopped.
06:21It was him.
06:22Mister, this is the most precious thing I have.
06:24My daddy left it for my mommy.
06:26I'll give it to you.
06:27Please save my mommy.
06:28The second that man saw the pendant, his fingers reached out, trembling.
06:32The black gold rose sat in Aiden's small palm.
06:35The letter R between the petals was so clear.
06:41That's when the madam burst in.
06:43You think you can fool my honored guest with this trash?
06:45You little bastard!
06:47Do you even know where you are?
06:49No!
06:50Aiden dropped to his knees, picked up the pieces one by one.
06:52This was daddy's.
06:54It's broken now.
06:55Daddy won't find us anymore.
06:57Despair washed over me.
06:58It was our only link to him.
07:00Will he ever recognize us again?
07:03Who gave you the nerve to ruin my thing?
07:08Boss, I'm so sorry.
07:10I don't know that belongs to you.
07:12Shut up!
07:13He walked over to Aiden and crouched down.
07:16This pendant, where did you get it?
07:17I tried to rush over to protect Aiden, but two thugs dragged me aside and held me down tight.
07:23Daddy left it for Mommy.
07:25Mommy said Daddy would come back for us.
07:27She told me to take care of it.
07:29Liar!
07:29He's a fatherless brat.
07:30Even his mother doesn't know who his father is.
07:32Probably a homeless.
07:33He definitely stole this pendant.
07:34What?
07:36Aiden cried out in protest.
07:38I'm not a brat!
07:39I have a dad!
07:40Mom says Dad will come back for sure!
07:42Mom would never lie to me!
07:43Your mom?
07:43He looked up.
07:44His eyes met mine.
07:45Then his expression was unreadable.
07:47I broke free from the men holding me.
07:49Threw myself at his feet.
07:50Grabbed his sleeve.
07:50Look at me.
07:51Then look at Aiden.
07:52He has your face.
07:54Especially the eyes.
07:55Six years ago, you lost control in that abandoned lot.
07:58I helped you.
07:59You said you'd marry me.
08:00You put that pendant around my neck.
08:02Don't you remember any of it?
08:03Marco stepped closer and whispered.
08:05Boss, it could be a setup.
08:07That Omega from six years ago.
08:09How could she end up like this?
08:10His brow tightened.
08:11A flicker of disgust crossed his eyes.
08:14The Omega six years ago was gentle and kind.
08:17She would never sell herself like a whore.
08:20And it was only one time.
08:22There's no way she'd have a child from it.
08:23My heart sank.
08:24He was disgusted by me.
08:25Lisa squeezed through the door.
08:27She'd been waiting for her moment.
08:28Boss, don't let her play you.
08:30This Omega slept around six years ago and got herself knocked up without a bond.
08:35She brought this on herself.
08:37His face darkened.
08:38Doubt.
08:39Take them downstairs.
08:40Lock them up.
08:42Find out where that pendant really came from.
08:44If they lie even once, don't go easy on them.
08:47The men stepped forward.
08:49They started dragging me and Aiden away.
08:52Just then, my father burst in.
08:54He shoved past Lisa and stumbled toward Lucian.
08:56Please, spare my daughter and my grandson.
08:59This is all Lisa's fault.
09:00Lisa set us up.
09:03He dropped to his knees.
09:04Tears streamed down his face.
09:06She's the one who sold my girl into this place.
09:09Aria and the boy are innocent.
09:11Please, have mercy.
09:12Lisa snapped instantly.
09:13She jabbed a finger at my father's face.
09:15You useless old man.
09:17You're blaming me?
09:18If you could have fed this family what I have needed to sell her?
09:21This is all your fault.
09:22My father shook all over.
09:23His lips trembled.
09:24Boss, every one of them is telling a different story.
09:27Maybe we should interrogate them properly.
09:28He was about to give the order.
09:31That's when Aiden suddenly broke free from the men holding him.
09:34He ran to Lucian and dropped to his knees.
09:36Mommy isn't lying.
09:37That pendant was from my daddy.
09:38Please believe us.
09:39Please save my mommy.
09:40The man looked down at Aiden's face.
09:42I'll do anything to pay you back.
09:44You don't remember any of it?
09:45I asked, my voice breaking.
09:47Were all those promises just lies?
09:49He looked down at me, stayed on my face for a long time.
09:51Hope filled my chest.
09:52He seemed to remember something.
09:55Just then, Marco spoke up.
09:57Boss, there are matters at the pack waiting for you.
10:00We can't stay much longer.
10:01His eyes lingered on me and Aiden for one second.
10:05He turned and walked toward the door.
10:06I reached out.
10:07I caught nothing.
10:09This is what you left me!
10:10I picked up a piece of the broken black gold from the floor.
10:13I clutched it in my fist.
10:14Even if you don't remember me, Aiden is innocent.
10:17He's your blood.
10:17Please, for the boy's sake, don't leave us.
10:20His footsteps stopped.
10:21He didn't look back.
10:22Lock them up.
10:23Don't hurt them.
10:24Watch them closely.
10:25I'll deal with this when I'm back.
10:27Then he left.
10:27I dropped to the floor.
10:28Tears spilled down my face.
10:30Aiden ran over.
10:31He wrapped his arms around me.
10:32Mommy, is he my daddy?
10:33Why didn't he claim us?
10:35Doesn't he like me and mommy?
10:36I held him tight.
10:38It's him.
10:39He just forgot for now.
10:41Mommy's gonna make him remember.
10:42They locked us again.
10:43Before Lisa dragged my father away, he slipped me a few pieces of bread.
10:47I'm sorry.
10:49I'll find a way to get you out.
10:51Stay alive.
10:53Take care of Aiden.
10:54For the next few days, the madam only gave us scraps.
10:57Aiden always pushed his share over to me.
11:01Mommy got hurt.
11:02You need to eat more.
11:03The men kept coming back to question us.
11:05They wanted us to admit the pendant was stolen.
11:07They wanted us to admit Aiden had no father.
11:09I never changed my story.
11:11Not once.
11:11Then one day, the door opened.
11:13Marco walked in.
11:14The boss wants to see you.
11:17When I got to the room, Lucian was sitting in a chair.
11:20The pieces of broken black gold were laid out on the table in front of him.
11:23He looked at me.
11:24He didn't say anything.
11:25After a long silence, he spoke.
11:26You said Aiden is my child.
11:28Where's your proof?
11:29What happened six years ago?
11:31This necklace.
11:32The way Aiden looks.
11:34None of that is enough.
11:35He shook his head.
11:35I don't remember much from six years ago.
11:38The necklace could have been stolen.
11:40Plenty of people look alike.
11:42That's not proof.
11:43I looked at him.
11:43Then what do you want?
11:44What's it going to take for you to believe me?
11:46I've already sent people to look into it.
11:48They're checking the abandoned lot from six years ago.
11:50Whether anyone saw us together.
11:51Whether any Omega gave birth without a bond.
11:53If it checks out, I'll give you and the boy what's owed.
11:56He paused.
11:56If you're lying, you know what happens.
11:58Right then, loud laughter came from outside.
12:00A man in a designer suit strolled in.
12:02A dozen armed bodyguards followed him.
12:05The young heir to the Fontana pack.
12:07Everyone in this city knew about him.
12:09Spoiled.
12:09Reckless.
12:10Bad news.
12:11His eyes swept the room.
12:12They landed on me.
12:13The corner of his mouth curled up.
12:14Well, where'd this beauty come from?
12:17Get out.
12:17Fontana paused.
12:18His smile dropped a little.
12:19He looked the man over.
12:20Who the hell are you talking like that on my turf?
12:22Richie Pack.
12:23Marco said, cold.
12:24Laugh.
12:24Fontana froze for a second.
12:26Then he burst out laughing.
12:27The Richie Pack?
12:28With this little crew?
12:29You think you can just walk in here?
12:30He didn't finish.
12:30A boot slammed into his chest and dropped him.
12:32Fontana grabbed his ribs.
12:33His face twisted with rage.
12:35He screamed at his men to draw their guns.
12:37A dozen barrels swung up at us.
12:38Both sides locked in.
12:39In the chaos, Fontana pulled a knife from his belt.
12:42He moved around behind Aiden's father.
12:43I didn't think.
12:44I just ran for him.
12:46The blade went into my side.
12:48Blood soaked through my dress in second.
12:50I sank down.
12:50Someone caught me.
12:51Warm arms.
12:52He shouted my name.
12:53His voice cracked.
12:54Panicked.
12:54Broken.
12:55I looked up at him.
12:56I gave him a weak smile.
12:57Aiden.
12:58He's your son.
12:59Shut up.
13:00Take good care of him.
13:02I'm not a liar.
13:03You take care of him yourself.
13:04You're not going anywhere.
13:06It's my fault.
13:07This is all my fault.
13:08His tears dropped onto my face.
13:10They were hot.
13:12Aiden threw himself onto me.
13:14He cried for me.
13:15Begged me not to die.
13:16Fontana was still running his mouth.
13:18Do you know who my dad is?
13:19He's the district attorney.
13:21You're all going to-
13:22A calm woman's voice came from the doorway.
13:25Every head turned.
13:26A middle-aged woman walked in.
13:27Composed.
13:28A line of armed guards in black behind her.
13:31She scanned the room.
13:32Her eyes paused on me for a second.
13:33Then they dropped to the broken pieces of black gold on the floor.
13:37It was Elena Ritchie.
13:38The man's mother.
13:39The true power behind the Ritchie pack.
13:40The second Fontana saw her, his swagger melted.
13:43But he was still trying.
13:44Mrs. Ritchie, this is a misunderstanding.
13:46I just-
13:47Misunderstanding?
13:47You pulled a knife in front of my son Lucian.
13:50You call that a misunderstanding?
13:51Fontana's father came running in next.
13:53He dropped to his knees.
13:54Mrs. Ritchie, this is my fault.
13:56I raised him wrong.
13:57Please spare him.
13:58I'll deal with him myself.
13:59Elena didn't even look at him.
14:00She turned to her son.
14:02How do you want to handle this?
14:03It's your call.
14:06Lucian handed me over to his medic.
14:08Marco's men dragged Lisa, my father, and the madam in from the hall.
14:12They'd been held in the club's back office, waiting for Lucian's verdict.
14:15Lucian stood up and turned to the Fontanas.
14:18The Fontana pack runs an underground market.
14:20You operate illegal casinos and force omegas into prostitution.
14:23I've been watching you for a long time.
14:25Today just adds one more charge.
14:27You laid hands on someone who belongs to me.
14:29Fontana panicked.
14:30He was sobbing now.
14:31He begged his father to save him.
14:32His father knelt on the floor.
14:34He looked at his son.
14:35Something cruel flashed in his eyes.
14:37A second later, he grabbed a gun from the guard next to him.
14:39He aimed it at his own son.
14:41He pulled the trigger.
14:42The shot exploded through the room.
14:43Fontana dropped into a pool of his own blood.
14:45He stared up in disbelief.
14:47His last words came out as a whisper.
14:49Dad.
14:50Dad, you.
14:51The whole room went silent.
14:52Lucian glanced down at the body.
14:54His face didn't change.
14:55He turned to Marco.
14:56Take every Fontana in this building.
14:58Hand them to the legal team.
14:59Once we have the evidence, no one walks.
15:01He looked over at the trembling madam and Lisa.
15:04Lisa finally lost it.
15:05She threw herself at my father and grabbed his sleeve.
15:07Say something!
15:09You're just gonna let them take me?
15:10My father looked at her for a long moment.
15:12Then he turned his face away.
15:13It was the first time in his life he didn't cave to her.
15:18The doctor finished bandaging me up.
15:20He said I'd lost a lot of blood.
15:22I needed rest.
15:24Elena watched the whole time.
15:25After the doctor left, she walked over to my bed.
15:27She studied my face carefully.
15:29I didn't dare speak.
15:30I just looked back at her.
15:33She turned her head to Aiden.
15:35He was sitting in the corner.
15:39His fists held the broken pieces of the pendant.
15:42His head was down.
15:43He hadn't said a word.
15:45Elena walked over.
15:46She crouched down.
15:48She gently lifted his chin.
15:51She looked at him for a long time.
15:55Then she smiled.
15:58This boy.
15:59He looks just like his father did at this age.
16:02Even carries the same alpha scent.
16:05Who are you?
16:07I'm your grandma.
16:08He froze for a second.
16:10Then his eyes filled up.
16:11He threw himself into her arms.
16:12His little shoulders shook with sobs.
16:14Grandma!
16:15Mommy got hurt!
16:16Mommy's bleeding so much!
16:18Elena held him tight.
16:19Don't worry.
16:20I'm here now.
16:21Nobody's ever going to touch you again.
16:23We're family.
16:24The tears I'd been holding back finally came.
16:29That night, my father was given a guest room at the estate.
16:34After my wound was stable,
16:36he pushed open the door.
16:38He stood in the doorway.
16:40His back was hunched.
16:41He held his cap in his hands,
16:43like a child who'd done something wrong.
16:45Aria.
16:46His voice was soft.
16:48I'm so sorry.
16:49I sat against the headboard.
16:51I noticed the new gray in his hair.
16:54I stayed quiet for a long time.
16:57Dad, did you ever think about it?
16:59If you'd stood up for me that day,
17:01even one word,
17:02I wouldn't have ended up there.
17:04I know.
17:05I'm a coward.
17:06You're the one I've failed the most in my whole life.
17:08The room was quiet for a long time.
17:11I let out a breath.
17:12Aiden wants his grandpa to tuck him in.
17:14My father looked up.
17:15He couldn't believe it.
17:16I didn't say anything else.
17:17I just turned my head to the window.
17:19He understood.
17:20He wiped his eyes.
17:21He closed the door softly behind him.
17:23Grandpa, do you know any stories?
17:26Yeah.
17:27Grandpa knows lots.
17:29Tell me one about mommy when she was little.
17:32Okay.
17:33When your mommy was little.
17:34The voices faded.
17:36Right then, the door pushed open again.
17:39Lucian came in.
17:40He sat down on the edge of the bed.
17:42He looked at me.
17:43He didn't say anything.
17:46Does it hurt?
17:48It's okay.
17:49He was quiet for a moment.
17:51Then he lowered his head.
17:54I'm sorry.
17:55I made you wait six years.
17:59The next morning, when I woke up, Lucian was still by my bed.
18:03I didn't know how long he'd been sitting there.
18:05I shifted a little.
18:07The wound pulled.
18:08I sucked in a breath.
18:10You're awake.
18:11Does it hurt?
18:12I'm fine.
18:13Did you sit there all night?
18:14He didn't answer.
18:15He just got up and poured me a glass of iced water.
18:17He handed it to me.
18:18I took the glass.
18:19I sipped it.
18:20Lucian.
18:21He looked at me.
18:22He was paying full attention.
18:24Yesterday, you said it was your fault.
18:26I want to know.
18:28Where were you these six years?
18:29He paused.
18:30After that night, my pack had me moved out of the city.
18:33The wound was bad.
18:36I was unconscious for almost three months.
18:39The first thing I did when I woke up was send people to find you.
18:42Six years.
18:45My people failed me.
18:47And I failed too.
18:48I didn't get any way to contact you that night.
18:51Was it worth it?
18:53Looking for an Omega you'd only met once?
18:56For six years?
18:58I don't know why.
19:00All I know is that night, you handed me a tissue.
19:03There was fear in your eyes.
19:04But you didn't run.
19:05Every time I wanted to give up, I thought about those eyes.
19:08I looked down.
19:09My eyes were burning.
19:11I'll give you the wedding you deserve.
19:12The whole pack will know you're there, Luna.
19:18Three days after I started getting better, Elena called me to her garden for tea.
19:21She sat at the stone table.
19:23She held herself.
19:24I sat across from her.
19:25A little stiff.
19:26She poured two cups.
19:27She slid one over.
19:29Lucian told me everything.
19:30You raised Aiden alone for six years.
19:32Yes.
19:33That couldn't have been easy.
19:34I'm going to ask you something.
19:36Don't give me the answer you think I want.
19:38Okay.
19:39Do you hate him?
19:41I did.
19:41Aiden was burning up with fever when I had to carry him in a cab to the ER, when I
19:45didn't
19:45even have enough cash for the fare.
19:47I hated him then.
19:48And after?
19:49His fever broke.
19:50He opened his eyes and called me mommy.
19:52And I thought, hating someone is exhausting.
19:55It's not worth it.
19:56My son's got good taste.
19:58I only have one question.
19:59Are you willing to marry him?
20:01Not for Aiden's sake.
20:02Not for the Richie pack.
20:02Just because you want to.
20:04There was no pressure there.
20:06No judgment.
20:06Just waiting for an honest answer.
20:09Yes.
20:11I've waited six years.
20:13I've been ready for a long time.
20:16Good.
20:17From today on, you call me mom.
20:21That afternoon, Lucian took Aiden to the shooting range behind the estate.
20:25I stood at a distance and watched them.
20:28Don't let your hands shake.
20:29Take a deep breath.
20:30Pull the trigger as you exhale.
20:33The bullet flew past the edge of the target.
20:36So close.
20:37I missed again.
20:39It's fine.
20:40First time I tried, I didn't even hit the target.
20:43Daddy, you missed too?
20:45What?
20:46You think your dad was born knowing everything?
20:50Yeah.
20:51That's exactly what I thought.
20:52Lucian froze for a second, then he laughed.
20:55It was the first time I'd seen him laugh like that.
20:59Mommy!
21:00I almost hit it!
21:01I saw.
21:02You did great.
21:04Daddy!
21:05Mommy said I did great!
21:07Yeah.
21:08Mommy's always right.
21:09I looked away.
21:10My heart skipped a beat.
21:11Their shadows stretched long, side by side.
21:17The night before the bonding ceremony.
21:19The dress was custom.
21:20Long, white gown.
21:22The hem swept the floor.
21:24Elena came herself to help me with the final fitting.
21:27Nervous?
21:28A little.
21:30It just doesn't feel real.
21:32Which part doesn't feel real?
21:34Six years ago, I was counting delivery orders,
21:37trying to figure out if I had enough for new shoes for Aiden.
21:39Now I'm in a custom gown about to complete a bonding ceremony with Lucy Arshian.
21:45Aria, do you know what's most expensive about this dress?
21:49I shook my head.
21:50It's not the fabric.
21:51It's not the craftsmanship.
21:53It's that the woman wearing it deserves it.
21:55My eyes started to burn.
21:57Get some sleep.
21:58You need to look beautiful tomorrow.
21:59The door closed softly.
22:01I stood there in front of the mirror.
22:03I looked at the woman in the white dress.
22:04I thought back to that night six years ago.
22:07Alone in a bathroom.
22:08Giving birth.
22:09Crying as I picked out a name for my son.
22:11Back then, I figured my whole life would just be that.
22:14The lights of the estate came on one by one.
22:16The whole rose garden glowed bright.
22:19I touched the pendant at my neck.
22:20The pieces had been set into a new platinum frame.
22:23The rose was still the rose.
22:24The letter was still that R.
22:26Tomorrow, I was going to complete the bond with Lucian.
22:31The day of the bonding ceremony, the weather was perfect.
22:35The sun lit up the rose garden.
22:37Deep red, pale pink, dark purple.
22:39They looked like they'd bloomed just for today.
22:42I held Aiden's hand.
22:43We stood at the entrance to the chapel.
22:45Aiden looked up at me.
22:46His eyes were shining.
22:48Mommy, are we going in?
22:50Yes.
22:51The chapel was lined with the pack elders on both sides.
22:55The priest stood at the altar.
22:56The candlelight made everything feel solemn and warm.
23:00At the far end, Lucian stood at the altar.
23:06His back was to me.
23:07The music started.
23:08He turned around.
23:09I looked at him.
23:10He looked at me.
23:12The chapel went so quiet, you could only hear footsteps.
23:15One step.
23:16Another.
23:18Closer and closer.
23:19When I reached him, he looked down at me for a long time.
23:21Then he spoke.
23:22His voice was lovely.
23:23Took you long enough.
23:25Six years, I said.
23:28Sorry.
23:29You can make it up to me.
23:31The corner of his mouth lifted.
23:33The priest cleared his throat.
23:34We are gathered here today to join this man and woman in holy matrimony.
23:39Lucian Ritchie.
23:40Do you take this woman as your mate, for richer or poorer, in sickness and in health, in good
23:45times and bad, till death do you part?
23:47I do.
23:48Aria.
23:49Do you take this man as your mate, for richer or poorer, in sickness and in health, in good
23:54times and bad, till death do you part?
23:57I do.
23:59He slid the ring onto my finger.
24:01The ring settled into place.
24:02Whispered to Elena.
24:04Grandma, are they mates now?
24:06She held his hand gently.
24:08They always were.
24:09Aiden thought about it.
24:10He nodded, satisfied.
24:12He looked up at us at the altar and broke into the widest smile.
24:16The first morning after the bonding ceremony, when I woke up, the sun was already creeping
24:22past the curtains.
24:23The whole room felt warm and bright.
24:26His side of the bed was empty, but his scent was still on the pillow.
24:30That steady alpha scent, calm and grounding.
24:33I sat up.
24:34I opened the door.
24:36I went down the stairs.
24:38There were small sounds coming from the kitchen.
24:40I walked in.
24:42Lucian was at the stove.
24:43His sleeves were rolled up.
24:44He was staring at something in the pan.
24:46His brow was a little furrowed.
24:47I got closer.
24:49It was a fried egg, slightly burned at the edges.
24:51He heard my footsteps.
24:52He turned.
24:53When he saw me, his face stiffened for a second.
24:56Then he looked away, casually.
24:58You're up.
25:00Yeah.
25:01You're making breakfast?
25:03Something wrong with that?
25:05Nothing.
25:06Nothing.
25:06Just, it's a little burnt around the edges.
25:11He was quiet for a second.
25:13I'll have the kitchen do it.
25:14I took the spatula from him and gently nudged him aside.
25:17No need.
25:17I got it.
25:18He stood there.
25:19He watched me take over.
25:21He didn't move.
25:22I cracked two fresh eggs.
25:23Low heat.
25:24The whites slowly set.
25:26I slid the plate toward him.
25:28I didn't eat.
25:30He looked down.
25:31Then he looked at me.
25:32You're a good cook.
25:33I had to be.
25:34Trying to get Aiden to eat.
25:36I had to learn how to make everything.
25:37He picked up the plate.
25:39He took a bite.
25:40He didn't say anything.
25:41But I saw his brow relax.
25:44The morning light outside was getting brighter.
25:47Birds were singing in the rose garden.
25:49Ordinary, like any normal family's morning.
25:52A lot like the kind of family I'd always wanted.
