ROYCE.

She’s smiling down at the young boy as she carries a tray. Her golden hair is the same shade as Aleric’s, and I don’t know how I didn’t notice her features.

She’s an Arden, through and through. If she was standing beside Charlotte, Mom and even Aleric the Dick, everyone would notice.

‘I know she’s gorgeous… but you’re staring.’ Skyla says through the link.

I blink, looking away and down at my beautiful Green-eyed Goddess. She raises her eyebrow questioningly at me. She’s not angry, but she looks a bit suspicious, and I know I’m going to have to tell her. I trust her enough to know she won’t tell anyone and we’re in a relationship; we don’t hide things from one another.

Phoenix giggles and I smile down at her before Azura takes her from me and motions for me to take a seat at the table, but I don’t as I spot the boy coming over.

“Hello, my name is Corrado Herrmann Rossi. It’s nice to meet you. That is my Daddy.” He says proudly, pointing at Leo before holding out his hand.

I crouch down and smile. “Hey, nice to meet you, Corrado Hermann Rossi, and that is an impeccable name. I’m Royce Jonathan Arden.” I reply as I shake his hand.

He’s a polite one.

“That is a nice name, too! Welcome to the Sangue Pack.” He says and I nod.

“That’s the best welcome I’ve had.” I reply, giving him a small smile before I stand up, feeling several pairs of eyes on me.

Leo is sitting at the head of the table, a cigarette in his hands as Azura holds out their daughter and he takes her. The child instantly smiles as she begins talking earnestly to her father. The couple has a moment and I look away only for my eyes to meet Marcel’s.
