Ella's POV And he stands without leaving, we simply look at each other.He looks worn out. More exhausted than I’ve ever seen him.His eyes stay on mine, carrying an emotion I can’t explain. There is sadness… longing… and something else hidden deep inside them.“You should go inside and get some sleep,” he says in a quiet voice.I don’t answer, I take a slow step toward him, till I am very close to him.His body grows still, and his breathing becomes slightly heavier.“Ella…”He whispers my name, his voice low and filled with an emotion I can’t quite understand.I slowly raise my hand and gently touch his cheek.His skin feels warm beneath my fingertips. He looks into my eyes.“What is the matter?” he asks softly.I don’t answer right away, I continue looking into his eyes intensively.One memory after another fills my mind, as I stare at him. I remember the fight, misunderstanding, sacrifices, betrayal and the love we used to have for each other.And the love we keep trying to deny,

Ella's POV My expression immediately changes, as the cheerfulness is replaced with frowning.Jax isn’t the type to miss something this important, especially when it has to do with me.A strange feeling creeps into my chest, making my heartbeat quicken ever so slightly.Did something happen? Has he been taken back to my custody without my notice?I immediately push the thought away. Now isn’t the time to let my mind wander.Thousands of people are watching me, every movement I make is being judged.I take a slow, steady breath and force my expression to remain calm.No matter what I’m feeling inside, I can’t let it show.I straighten my shoulders, lift my chin a little higher, and continue walking as though nothing is wrong.But deep inside, the thought still lingers.The Council of Regalis Pack Elders is already waiting at the center of the ceremonial platform.The oldest Elder slowly steps forward, and he holds my gaze.“Daughter of the Regalis Pack…”His deep voice echoes across the

The ancient family crest is safely inside its beautifully handcrafted wooden case on the table behind me. It is early in the morning, and the morning sunlight shines through the curtains and falls over the silver engravings, making them sparkle as if they are covered in moonlight.I smiled faintly as I stared at it, we finally did it.After everything we go through, every trap laid before us, every battle we fight, and every sacrifice we make, we finally bring it home.It isn’t just an ancient crest anymore, it is now my family legacy and our history.And now, everything finally feels complete.Then I hear a sudden knock on my door, which pulls me away from my thoughts.“Come inside.” I responded.The bedroom door slowly opens
ELLAI bend over the sink again, splashing cold water onto my face until my breathing finally slows down. When I straighten up and look at my reflection, I almost look like myself again.Almost.Whatever happened here hasn’t fully faded. My scent still clings to me, it's faint and unfamiliar, hang
ELLA“Just tell me what’s next.” I mutter under my breath walking behind him.I follow a step behind him, moving carefully so I don’t disturb the sleeping child curled against my chest.Every instinct I have is on edge. I’m walking deeper into the house of the same man who watched me be humiliated
ELLAAll the air drains from my lungs.Slowly, I turn, my brows knitting together as the realization hits. Did I seriously walk straight into the lion's den? Well in his case the wolf's den. Is there really no turning point for me? The thought feels unreal, like a cruel joke the universe decided
ELLAI realize I’m done the moment my face hits the water.Cold water rushes into my mouth and nose as laughter explodes around me. The sound is sharp, cruel, impossible to ignore. I can feel my backpack tugging at my shoulders, dragging me lower, pressing me into the shallow stone basin like the
