ValerianAs promised by Dameta, she had finally introduced me... to the person who connected the two of us more.I was nervous when I finally met him and surprised that he looked like Dominixe and had my eyes and eye color."Greetings, my father in this timeline, Duke Leveaux," he said formally. "I am Demetrius Onyx Cantavalle, the current head of the House of Cantavalle. I am now the Marquis Cantavalle while my mother became Marchioness Dowager Cantavalle."I was rendered speechless just by seeing this young man named Demetrius. My wolf and I had this unexplainable feeling. I felt my heart beating so fast just by eyeing him and seeing that Dominixe from the different timeline had managed to conceive a pup of our own.Demetrius... Such a handsome name for our son..."G-Greetings..." I blinked, not knowing what to do next. I glanced at Dameta, who was watching us but keeping her distance."Mother said that I shall aid your plans, Your Grace. Please make use of me." Demetrius bowed his

Valerian"You know this is a trap, and yet, you will continue going there?" Henry asked in disbelief after he read the letter that Dominixe's father wished to see me. He mentioned that we would talk about Dominixe since I made a bold move to annoy him back on Henry's birthday. "Don't you agree with me, Demetrius?""Yes..." Demetrius stepped forward. "Your Grace..."I halted him. "I have already set the measures. Plus, we have already made our countermeasures." I sighed. "I have already decided what Dameta told me of what would happen, even if it means causing my death and going back as Niccolo.""But we do not know where Goddess Elixane, Valerian..." Henry huffed. Then he turned to Demetrius. "Your son does not want to say where we could meet her."Demetrius frowned. "My mother already promised Auntie Elixane that we will not tell her whereabouts. The more we ruin the laws of nature, Grandma Lunaria will make Auntie Rachelle come here. If my aunt makes me return to my original timelin

Valerian"Three days from now, Demetrius and I shall return to the celestial realm."That was what Luna Queen Rachelle said as soon as we were finished dining for the morning meal. She started discussing only when Alpha King Helio left for some entertainment. She even provided privacy to the whole dining hall, which only us, Alpha King Claudian, Henry, Demetrius, Dominixe, and I, to avoid leaking the information we discussed."Since my dear sister, Dominixe, is still not accustomed to her abilities as the Goddess of Time..." she paused, pouring my attention at Dominixe, drumming her fingers on the table. I did the same, causing our eyes to meet, but Dominixe quickly averted her gaze. "Mother shall help Demetrius to return to his original timeline. By then, Valerian... Dominixe... If you wish to be with my nephew, do it. You have ample time." Her eyes shifted between Dominixe and me, urging us to take this as an opportunity.Hot air came to pass behind me, feeling my insides about to f

Striding the whole chamber where I would sleep, holding these 10-inch spikes of star-shaped flowers, made me smile.Demetrius was such a thoughtful boy. I could see the love in his eyes on how he cherished me as his mother.What only made me feel melancholy was knowing how my other self treated him—abusive, cruel, and inconsiderate.It broke my heart how Demetrius endured it. Why? Why would my other self resort to this kind of action?Shouldn't she be happy that her Valerian had the fruit of love while I... didn't have a chance since I was careful?"You have disappointed me..." I muttered to the Dominixe from the other timeline, knowing the strange dream I had where I gave birth to a healthy baby boy and how she treated it like it was such a nuisance was the point of view of my other self, after all.That was why I couldn't understand why Rachelle made me want to be wary of Demetrius when all he needed was a mother who would love him for who he was.But that wouldn't change the fact t

"Huh?" I raised my head, baffled at his words.He hated me... Then he would say he still loved me? What did he mean?Valerian used his forearm to cover his eyes when I saw him brimming with tears. "Did you know how broken I was when I knew you were just playing my feelings back then, Dominixe?""Yes..." I muttered, exhaling this smothering feeling that could almost exhaust me. "At first... I was only planning to make you believe that I was earnest back then since you asking me to live with you in your pack was a great opportunity to know your weaknesses." I laid my head on his chest, clinging to him as if I did not want to let him go. "But as time passed, I fell into you, Valerian. I was already hesitating to give my father excuses that I needed more time—because I did not want to hurt you. You were the first person who became genuine to me and did not see me as an object." I bit my lower lip, recalling those beautiful memories we had. "You treated me as a human. You made me blossom m
