Three years later Aurora's POV I marked the calendar and sighed. Today marked the third year, Xavier and I hadn't spoken. His men had pulled out from the pack, and there was no one to help me connect with him. I did try to return to the pack several times, but Mom was always around to ensure I didn't make a stupid decision. She still believes his silence had a reason. I had stopped making up excuses for why he never called. The news channels still talked about him. His wealth had doubled, and he was the richest Alpha in the city. He was loving the life while I was stuck with the children and the loneliness I had gotten used to. The giggles of the children brought me back to the house. They were back from school. Mom had insisted we enrolled them when they clocked two years
