And still, it hasn't faded. A week later, I was still as drawn to Aiden physically as I was drawn to his emotional side.I watched Aiden's handsome face while he worked with intent and concentration as he pulled out packaged containers which I knew were undeniably, edibles, on the space before us. And immediately, the stomach teasing aroma of spices, herbs and food filled my nostrils, making me to involuntarily salivate."Hmmn," I let out an encouraging moan. "Smells delicious."Aiden flashed me a heart swelling smile as he nodded. "It should."I sat, with anticipation etched on my skin and my face as he unwrapped all the plates.Aiden after spreading out every single food he prepared on the blanket, helped me with a good serving of a bit of everything."Thank you!" I grinned cheekily as I took the plate from him. He returned my smile. "Enjoy."Nodding, I stared dreamily at my stacked plate. "Oh yes, I will."

It was past midday and my day couldn't get any better.After my date with Aiden earlier in the day, I was feeling good as hell. It felt like my day had taken a new turn for the better. Even Freya had chipped in that I walked with a bounce in my step and the best part hadn't even began yet. Whistling a tune below my breath, I quickly made for the counter as requested by Freya, since Soul Kitchen was having a pretty crowded day."Hi girls," I let out in a singsong voice as I saw Poppy and Kate in their usual mood. Deep in conversation. I swear this two could give a radio station a run for their money."Hey girl." Kate smiled."Hi Ava," Poppy waved shyly in her usual way, while I flashed her an easy smile."Busy day huh? How is it going?"Kate let out a dramatic sigh. "Is it just me or did everyone on Titan land grow a second stomach." She let out another sigh, causing Poppy and I to let out giggles. "The orders won't stop coming.""Ummm," Poppy began. "Isn't that like, a good thing?""

Gus looked visibly shaken.Yet, he had no answer to my question."Is Titan really going to war against Colossus Gus?" I prodded, getting uneasy with the silence that followed my question."Where did you hear such a thing Ava?" He finally spoke up, but instead of having an answer to my question, he replied with another question of his."Words do travel fast you know," I shrugged, waiting patiently for an answer. Gus let out another sigh. "We are not going to war with any pack Ava," he finally let out. "Although, it is true that there are talks circulating about Colossus planning on going to war against us,"I was sure my facial expression gave off a very scared look as Gus promptly corrected himself. "They are merely rumors Ava, nothing has been confirmed yet."I nodded, trying my best to look calm, however there was a hailstorm going on inside me."You're safe here Ava. Nothing will happen to you and if anyone wants to get to you, they have to get through Alpha, me," His grin was wid

Stepping into Aiden's home office was like being hit with bouts of deja Vu. It felt like eons had passed since I last visited the place. And even as I took in everything before me, I surmised without doubt, that the place had gone through a thorough change.The once dusty and cramped up space looked so spacious as it let in fresh air constantly into the room. The thick and dark draperies were pulled to the side, revealing a floor to ceiling glass window that did more than a terrific job at serving a beautiful view of a part of Titan land's plantation.The thick chairs were arranged in an aesthetic fashion that looked more like a spot for a friendly gathering instead of a meeting between an Alpha and his guards. It was cosy like that and I knew that only Aiden would pull off a cosy yet sophisticated.With an easy smile stretching my lips wide, I took in his mahogany desk. The same desk that had looked disorganized and scattered with torn papers the last time I had been in this very sam

It has been a week since Aiden and I sent out invites to the neighbouring Packs and yet, we haven't gotten any feedbacks.We were all bothered, especially Aiden. Try as he might, he always appeared cool and calculating in the presence of his Pack, always wearing the strong and assuring facade because he has to make his Pack feel assured that everything was under control.However, I knew that all was not well with Aiden. The run-ins on the people of Titan keep on increasing and so far, a lockdown has been placed. The elite guards with their soldiers were at alert all the time, making sure that all bounderies were secured and that the people of Titan were safe.I was in Aiden's home office as I tried to listen through the tiny speakers of my airpods, as my biology lecturer further explained the workings of human cells. I knew I was paying little to no attention to what he was saying. My mind was drifting to the man at the other side of the room who was wearing a s
