Alpha’s Vow: Reclaiming his lost Luna

Later that evening, Iris and Lucius almost didn’t wanna leave the suite where their youngest is.   

 But since the Prime Minister also knows that Cyrus and Aria still needed to rest, he managed to convince his mate to leave and go and check on their eldest son too.

After the older couple left, another nurse entered the room with Felicia. The beta nurse informed the mates that they need to take Kiana for some assessment. At first Aria wanted to refuse but Felicia was there so she just reassured him that she won't let Luna get out of her sight.

  Cyrus also agreed to Felicia since he really wanted to have alone time with his mate. He might have looked so tough in front of his parents a while ago but he feels like he's about to explode with all the emotions and revelations they've told him.

When the fated mates are finally left alone, the omega suddenly feels the tension that surrounds them. She knows that Cyrus is still overwhelmed with all the information they just received; she was about moving towards the alpha when Cyrus beat her to it.

The pure blood alpha settled beside her on the couch inside their private suite. The two of them are both free from their dextrose and even their wounds are almost healed.

"Hey, are you alright?" Aria asked when Cyrus remained quiet beside her. Cyrus two moves closer to her and without saying a word he just rests his head on her left shoulder.

  They were quiet for some time until Cyrus took Aria’s hands into his own.

"I'm sorry for not being able to protect you and our daughter." Cyrus said, his voice full of regret because it is only then when the two finally realized everything that happened to them in the past few days.

They were too busy making sure Kiana was safe and well treated in the hospital so they haven't even talked about the fact that 3 people got killed in order to protect their family.

"Will you forgive me for not being able to keep you and Kiana safe? I would understand if you don’t ----"

Cyrus wasn't able to complete his words when Aria suddenly pushed him aside.

"Cyrus, what the hell are you talking about? I am safe. Kiana is safe. We are safe! You have done everything in your power to protect us. You even saved Knight even before you've learned that he was your brother. Why are you?, ……Cyrus no!" Aria's eyes widened when he saw the pure blood alpha's shoulders shaking.

She cups Cyrus’s face and saw he was sobbing.

"Ria... Rina.. she saved Kiana, she saved our daughter and I haven't even thanked her. I was so mad at her when she confessed to me and she just...she just took the bullet to save our daughter." Cyrus suddenly blurted out.

Aria bites her tongue because she doesn't know what to tell Cyrus at that moment. She couldn't believe she would ever witness the alpha breaking down just like that in front of her.

"If Dylan wasn't there, who knows if Alex's bullet would've hit you too? I'm so sorry Aria...I'm so sorry." Cyrus kept apologizing while crying.

The omega shakes her head off as he lifts his face.

"Look at me Cyrus... look at me and listen." Aria says while trying to hide her own pain regarding her friend's death.

"Rin did what she thought was right. She saved our daughter not for you to be guilty about it but because she believed that our daughter also deserves a chance in life. Cyrus, Rina grew up alone with her mom only and I guess she does not want any one of us to feel the pain and hardships she went through that's why she saved her. So please, don't blame yourself for something that is beyond your control. She loved us, that's why she saved us. The only thing we can do now is to not waste that chance she gave us. Let's not live in guilt and worry anymore Cyrus." Aria says trying her best to explain what he thought Rina would want to tell them.

Aria is so used to Cyrus releasing his relaxing pheromones to calm her down, but in this moment the pure male omega starts to release her own calming scent to comfort her mate. A lot of things happened and she understands why Cyrus is having a mental breakdown.

Aria  realized that it is true that even the strongest people are still vulnerable when it comes to the one they love and care about.

Aria hates Julius for what he did to their family and she also feels sorry for Cyrus for not getting the answers from the old man himself. He knows that it would take some time before her mate accepts everything but for now, she just wants Cyrus to rest and have peace of mind in her arms. 

  The two didn't even know how they fell asleep on the couch. By the time Felicia entered the suite, she carefully put Kiana inside her crib as she uttered her silent prayer thanking the Moon for finally giving the little family a chance to start all over again and maybe....Kiana would have her own happy ending.
