Upon turning my head to look at the table, I discovered that each and every one of the dishes was my favorite.Given that I had been living in this house with Amanda for two years, she was aware of the dishes that I liked the most."Why are you doing this?" I asked Adrian while eyeing the food.I turned my head at him with a brow lifted."Did you poison any of the food?"He gave me a poker face as if I said something meaningless."What?""Eat."After placing some food on a plate that he had grabbed, he then placed the plate in front of me.Suddenly, I remembered how I had been waiting for him in this dining room for the nights, thinking that he would return and I could serve him food like that. But he never returned home.I looked away from the plate. Why could I just not forget those things?People moved on in their lives, didn't they? Why could I not do the same?I ignored looking at him and focused on eating. I ate fast so that I could leave this house as soon as possible.I felt f

Natalia's POVI was heading to my house in Max's car. He was such a caring person. He only asked once about what I was doing at Adrian's house.When I explained to him that I fainted last night because of a fever, he did not ask anything further.He said he trusted me.I turned my head at him. He was a nice guy. Why was I feeling like I cheated on him?Last night, Adrian and I were really close to each other. Though he was just healing my wound, I did not think any boyfriend would take that lightly.I did not say anything about that to Max. I was afraid that he would feel upset. He did not like Adrian since he was my ex-husband.When we arrived at my house, I unfastened the seatbelt and got out of the car.Max also got down and came toward me. He checked on my forehead and said,"You don't have a fever right now. It's surprising."He was right. After last night, I began to feel light and refreshed.It seemed like that wound was the only thing that was causing me to lose my strength."

The weekend was a day off for the family and friends to spend together.I was getting ready to go out with my children. They were very happy. I could see their happiness in their eyes.It wasn't because they were going with me; it was because they were going with their parents together.I remembered the days that I had to pass like an orphan. I also wondered if I could have parents like other children. I used to ask the moon goddess why she did not give me one or why she parted them away from me, leaving me an orphan.When Gamma Jeremy adopted me, I was very happy at that time. I thought I could live a normal life, like other children. However, all of my hopes were crushed when he told me what my place was in his eyes. He and his wife, Cora, never took me somewhere.Instead of taking care of me, they gave me a scary life."Mommy, are you ready?"I heard Aria's voice. I shifted my gaze to the mirror and saw her standing at the door.I smiled at her when I saw she was spinning around to

Adrian's POVThe moment I stepped inside the restaurant, my eyes fell on the gorgeous woman, who looked breathtaking.I could watch her all day long. I wish I could meet her every day.Maybe this was called love. Just seeing the person made my heart beat faster.I grasped the bouquet firmly, as I felt nervous about the flowers.I remembered that I had read about her favorite flower in her diary. She mentioned it in her diary while writing about my favorite flower.When I walked to her, she looked away from me. I apologized to her. She called my name and the receptionist overheard her.He bowed to me in respect and fear. I told him not to tell anyone about my identity.Not every one of the members of my pack had met me in person. Though most of the people were on social media and saw my photos online, we were lucky that the majority of them did not recognize us.Otherwise, it would be hard to walk around in the pack freely."This is for you."She lowered her head and looked at the bou

Third POVWhen Max learned from Natalia that Adrian would also be attending the dinner, he was not pleased with it at all. That was the reason she could not invite him. So he lied to her and said that he had a meeting in this restaurant so that he could come here to be with her.He had absolutely no faith in Adrian at all. The man who had always given Natalia pain could hurt her again.“What wound is he talking about?”"Nothing, Max. Order something for you," Natalia said to him, trying to distract him.Max grabbed the menu and ordered all the dishes that Natalia liked.In the last few months, he has learned everything about her. He wanted to give her a good life, which she had missed for years.She let out a gasp as he placed the order for her favorite dishes. He turned his head toward her."Max, that's all my favorites. You remembered?" She whispered to him.He made a strong impression on her. He was making her feel like she was the only one. She glanced at Adrian and saw how he was
