Ivy.

Fifteen years...

Fifteen years since the war, and every day, | tried to atone for the shit | had done prior. | could play innocent and

act like I hadn't done anything to cause it all, but I'd be fucking lying. Not only to those aroundbut also to

myself.

The day Kara toldmy children were to be sent to the land of the gods when they turned eighteen, | made a

silent pact to prevent it. They were my children, and | was determined to make sure their lives were their own.

Even if | wanted to strangle them on more than one occasion for their defiance, among other things. "Damn it,

Pollux! Where are you?"

Storming through the house, I looked for the eldest of my six children and found, while gifted and the future of

our pack, he never seemed to be where he was supposed to be.

"James, have you seen Pollux?" My words seemed to fall on deaf ears as James continued grading the papers

before him. After all the hell we had gone through, he decided ten years ago to get into teaching, and he hadn't

looked back. Which honestly was shocking, considering he taught ninth-grade biology.

"James..." | repeated with a groan of frustration. "James!"

"Huh?" His eyes gazed up to meet mine with a clueless look. He had aged so much since | had first met him.

Gray hairs now streaked his head, and with it wrinkles crested the corners of his eyes. "Sorry, sweetie. The end

of the grading period is next week, and | have to get these done."

"I know, | know," | replied as | rolled my eyes and walked towards him. No matter how much he had changed

physically, he was still the sweet man | once knew. He always thought of others before himself and took pride in

his work. "I just haven't seen Pollux since he chfrom school, and he promised to take Dillon to

practice."

"Practice?" James glanced down at his watch and furrowed his brows. "Babe, that started twenty minutes ago.

Why didn't you tell| would have taken him?"

Smiling, | shook my head, "It's okay. Talon was done with his rounds and offered. He was excited to take him this

week. You know how much he hates missing out on stuff."

With all the changes we had undergone, swere harder than others.

Damian had refused to take back his

ove

Alpha position, and in doing so, Hale took over as the Alpha of the pack, allowing Damian to spend more time

with the business aspects of our world. As for Talon, his obsession with security grew increasingly urgent with

every child we had.

Running the training grounds and managing the borders bechis calling.

One the entire pack was grateful for.

"I know. Let him enjoy it. Dillion's twelve now. He isn't going to be young forever."

Pet

Nodding my head, | leaned down, kissing him gently. "I know. I'm glad that he has been coming around lately.

When little Sylvia got hurt a few years ago, | never thought he would leave the borders." Thinking about the

memory of that day made my chest burn with anguish, but forcing the feeling away, bpushed my mind forward.

"If only | can find your son."

James chuckled, shrugging his shoulders. This was a usual thing for the twins. Now that they were about to be

sixteen, they thought they could do whatever they wanted, and out of the two... Pollux wasn't the worst. No, he

may have had his moments, but Cassie was very different from her brother.

"Why don't you go ask Cassie where he went? She has her way of finding him," James suggested, causingto

groan in irritation.

There was no way | would let her do

"Don't start, Ivy. You can't make her stop being who she is. Just... go ask."
