Upon entering the office, I found Alpha Luca seated behind his desk, his expression grave yet tinged with warmth as he gestured for me to take a seat opposite him.
With a sense of trepidation, 1 lowered myself into the chair, my gaze meeting his with a mixture of curiosity and uncertainty. His warm brown eyes were smiling which eased me a bit.

I listened intently as Alpha Luca spoke, his words resonating deep within me. Maybe this is the wake up call I needed to make my decision?
While I had always understood the importance of education, his words drove home the significance of gaining a deeper understanding of the changes my body would undergo in the coming months.
“Of course, Alpha Luca,” I replied earnestly, determination flickering in my eyes. “I will do whatever it takes to ensure the health and well–being of myself and my child”
Alpha Luca nodded, a hint of approval in his gaze. “I have every confidence in you, Nesta,” he said. “And know that you will have the full support of the pack as you embark on this journey
