Seraphina’s POV 1

After a few more minutes of excited chatter about the baby and what it might mean to have a little brother or

sister, Ophelia gently took Adrian's hand.

“Con, sweetheart,” she said softly, though I could see the reluctance in her eyes to leaveagain so

soon after I'd woken up. “Let’s give Mommy and Daddy stto talk about grown-up things. Maybe we

can get sice cream from the cafeteria?”

Adrian’s face lit up at the mention of ice cream, but he hesitated, looking betweenand Damien with the

kind of intuitive understanding.

“Is it wolf stuff?” he asked seriously. “Because | know about wolves now. Daddy told me.”

| exchanged a glance with Damien, wondering just how much our son had learned during the ten days I'd

been unconscious.

“It is wolf stuff,” Damien confirmed with a gentle smile. “Adult wolf stuff that might be a little boring for a

four-year-old.”

“Okay,” Adrian said with a sage nod. “But you'll tellthe fun parts later, right Mommy?”

“I promise,” | said, pressing a kiss to his forehead. “And thank you for being such a good boy while | was

sleeping. | love you so much.”

“I love you too, Mommy. And | love the baby too, even though | can’t see them yet.”

My heart melted at his sweetness. “The baby loves you too, I'm sure of it.”

Ophelia leaned down to hugonce more, whispering in my ear, “I’m so glad you're okay. We were all so

scared”

“I'm sorry” | whispered back. “I didn’t mean to scare anyone.”

“Just focus on getting better,” she said, pulling back to look atwith tears still glistening in her eyes. “We'll

have plenty of tto catch up once you're home.”

The doctor had also excused himself, giving us privacy to process everything that had happened.

Damien moved back to the chair beside my bed, but instead of sitting down, he perched on the edge of the

mattress, his hand finding mine again.

“How are you feeling?” he asked, searching my face with those silver-blue eyes that seemed to see straight

through to my soul.

| considered the question, taking a moment to really examine my physical and emotional state.

“Overwhelmed,” | admitted. “Another baby. And this change in me...”

“She’s been waiting to meet Alex properly,” he said softly.

“Is it safe?” | asked, suddenly worried. “With the baby, andstill being weak?”

“It's perfectly safe,” he assured me. “In fact, it might help you feel more balanced. Alex has been restless since

the moment you opened your eyes.”

| nodded slowly, then closed my eyes and reached inward, seeking that warm, powerful presence | could feel

stirring beneath my consciousness.

*Ayla?*

*I'm here, * cher response, and her voice was completely different from what | remembered. Where

before she had been timid and small, now her mental voice carried the confident, melodious tone of a wolf

who knew her own power. *I've been waiting so long to show you who we really are.*

*You feel so different, * | told her, marveling at the strength radiating from her presence.

*Because we are different. We're complete now. Ready to meet our mate’s wolf as equals. *

| opened my eyes and looked at Damien. “She wants to meet Alex.”

His smile was radiant. “Alex has been pacing like a caged animal. May 1?”

| nodded, then felt that curious sensation of stepping back within my own consciousness, making room for

Ayla to cforward,

Through my eyes, | felt Ayla looking out at the world with keen intelligence and newfound strength. She

stretched our limbs experimentally, marveling at the power thrumming through our body despite its current

weakness.

Alex was magnificent-a massive sliver wolf with intelligent amber eyes and a regal bearing that spoke of

centuries of noble bloodline. His fur looked thick and luxurious, catching the harsh hospital lighting and

somehow making it seem warmer. He was easily twice the size of any normal wolf, built for both power and

grace.

And Ayla... my breath caught as | saw her through Alex’s perception. She was no longer the small, timid wolf |

remembered from my consciousness. She had grown-not to Alex's impressive size, but into something

elegant and powerful in her own right. Her deep brown coat was glossy and rich, like dark chocolate, and her

green eyes sparkled with newfound confidence and intelligence.

*Beautiful,* cAlex's rumbling mental voice, filled with pure adoration.

Damien's forehead cto rest gently against mine. It was the wolf equivalent of nuzzling, and | felt Ayla’s

pure contentment at the contact. Damien's free hand moved to the side of my neck, his thumb gently

stroking the spot where wolves would normally scent each other.

*Mine,* Alex's voice was a contented rumble, not possessive but satisfied, like a wolf who had finally found

what he'd been searching for his whole life.

| responded by turning my head and gently nuzzling him back, my lips brushing against the strong line of his

jaw. The gesture was innocent but intimate, pure wolf affection translated into human form.

| could feel both wolves’ contentment, their recognition of each other not just as mates but as perfect

complements.

Gradually, both wolves began to settle back into our consciousness, satisfied with their reunion. As | felt

myself fully returning to human awareness, | realized | was smiling through tears | didn’t remember starting

to shed.

Gradually, | felt Ayla beginning to step back, content now that she’d had the chance to properly greet her

mate’s wolf. As she receded, | felt myself fully returning to control of my body and consciousness.

| blinked, refocusing on the hospital room around me, and found Damien watchingwith an expression of

complete tenderness.

“How do you feel?” he asked softly.

“Complete,” | said without hesitation. “Like a part ofthat was always missing has finally been found.”

He leaned forward and pressed a gentle kiss to my forehead. “Alex is ecstatic. He's been waiting for this

moment since the day we first met you.”

“Ayla too,” | said, then paused, processing something else I'd becaware of during their interaction.

He took my hand in both of his, his thumbs tracing gentle circles across my knuckles. “Sera, there's

something | want to discuss with you. About our future.”

The seriousness in his tone madepay closer attention. “What about our future?”

“Once you're fully recovered, once you've had tto adjust to these changes...” He paused, seeming to

choose his words carefully. “I want to complete the mating bond formally. | want to mark claim

you,

my Luna before the entire pack.”
