Chapter 0338
Surprise flitters across his face, and he looks between us.
“Me?”
“No, we were talking to the ghost beside you,” Sebastian says sarcastically.
“Ah no, I mean I don’t mind but I… are you sure you want someone invading your place?” he asks uncertainly.
That isn’t a blatant no.
ΠΟ.
“I think we could use your help too,” I say with a smile, knowing that would make him feel better.
“Yeah, you’ll be good for babysitting,” Sebastian remarks.
Aran is about to counter before he smiles slightly and sighs. “Well, I don’t think that is such a bad idea. Maybe I will accept.”
“Great!” I say pulling free from Sebastian’s hold and hugging Aran, surprising
him.
He relaxes soon and hugs me back.
“Thank you, Zaia… Thank you, Sebastian, it will be nice having the children around,” he says, his eyes soft, despite his brisk tone.
But we both know him better than that. Past that tough exterior is a man who cares deeply.
“Perfect then!” I say as I move back.
“But are you both certain? I know Sebastian and I do clash…” he says looking at Sebastian, needing the approval of his son too…
Sebastian sighs, shoving his hands into his pockets. “I don’t think we’ve clashed much over the last few years… I like the idea too Dad, I’d like to have you there. He says quietly, just like his dad, he doesn’t show emotions so easily and my heart squeezes feeling emotional as I watch them both.
“Thank you.” Aran replies as he stretches his hand awkwardly before hesitating and almost retracting it.
‘Give him a hug!‘ I say to Sebastian. He glances at me, but he doesn’t argue, stepping forward and hugging his father.
Aran looks surprised, but I don’t miss the glistening sparkle in his eyes as he
hugs Sebastian back.
“I am proud to have a son like you,” he says quietly.
“Well, you should be,” Sebastian replies arrogantly and I brush my away, watching them smile faintly at one another.

Everything really is going well.
Shortly after that, Aran takes the children to get them to bed, and Sebastian turns to me, offering me his hand.
We were just going to go for a small walk before we headed inside.
Neither of us speaks as he takes my hand, lacing his fingers with mine as we walk along the path, gazing at the stars glittering in the night sky.
I rest my head against his shoulder, enjoying his presence.
One thing I realise with life is that you don’t need a man, but if you do accept one into your life, make sure he is one who will treat you the way you deserve to be treated.
Trust, loyalty, and appreciation are important, and if one is forgotten or broken, it can cause havoc.
I don’t need Sebastian in my life, but I choose to have him in my life on my own accord. Regardless of all those who judged me saying I should stay for my children, or tolerate him for the sake of others, remember to always put yourself first.
I did, and now I’m happy, knowing that both Sebastian and I are in the right place, for ourselves and for this relationship. Only then can I give my best to him, our children, and this pack.
“What’s on your mind?” Sebastian asks as we come to a stop, and he raises my hand to his lips, kissing my knuckles tenderly.
“Us,” I say softly.
“Oh?”
“Yes, I love you, Alpha Sebastian,” I whisper.
