Yet, at that moment, I lay alone in the infirmary while he was nowhere to be found.
There were no injured warriors, nor had there been any rogue ambushes. It was all just a fabrication of his lies.
I allowed him to grasp that his repeated assurances to fetch me were nothing but empty words, always followed by last-minute changes of heart.
When he finally walked through the door and confronted me, I let out a weary sigh and asked, “Where were you when I needed you the most, Aiden? When I lost our pups, you brushed it aside like it was nothing.”
Aiden lapsed into silence, yet before he could slip away again, I gathered the courage that surged within me and uttered, “Aiden, you’ve been the only one to see my worth as an Omega, yet I’ve grown weary of this path. I think it’s time we part ways and reject each other as mates.”
With courage surging through me, I conveyed my feelings to Aiden. However, he brushed me off, insisting my anger clouded my judgment. He urged me to take it easy, accusing me of carelessness and holding me responsible for the loss of our pups.
When we tied the knot beneath the full moon, I was delighted to prepare dinner for my mate.
