I couldn’t stop smiling.
For the first time in what felt like forever, the storm inside me had quieted.
Sophia hadn’t spoken much since our earlier conversation, and though her lips hadn’t formed the words ‘I forgive you’ her actions…the softness in her eyes, the way she didn’t pull away when I touched her, and the calm acceptance in her aura spoke louder than any declaration could.
Her silence was a balm to his heart.
It wasn’t cold or distant anymore; it was warm, cautious, yet full of quiet surrender.
I understand this about her, Sophia wasn’t one to forgive easily, but when she did, she did so completely.
And though she hadn’t said the words, I felt her wolf’s acceptance vibrating faintly through our bond, tentative but alive.
That was enough. That was more than enoug
