ELLA.
I was glad—truly glad—that they had saved me from the stress of wandering endlessly, searching for somewhere safe. At least here, I had a roof over my head, a place to rest… even if that "safety" came with its own dangers.
Because deep down, I knew better—I needed to be careful.
These men… I couldn't read them. I couldn't predict them. And there was no way, absolutely no way, they would just agree to let me keep my child so easily.
Especially Lurgard.
That thought alone made my chest tighten slightly.
Aside from that, with the sudden dreams I was having, I needed to get to the root and find out the truth.
And then…before I could even process everything, Lawrence had said it.
"Mate."
The word echoed in my mind, heavy and undeniable.
Not only that… he was already planning to keep it a secret.
I blinked, staring at him, my thoughts racing.
So… he didn't know.
He didn't know that it wasn't just him.
That I was bound to all three of them.
