Episode 2
Kim Taehyung
“It was only a nightmare.”
I breathed out, trying to catch my breath. No matter how hard I try, that day will forever haunt my dreams.
Looking at the clock beside my bed, I groaned. I was due to get up in half an hour. With no chance of going back to sleep, I threw off my blanket and climbed out of bed. My body was stiff and sore from the tension of my dream but I needed to work off this anxious energy. Before dressing for my morning run, I left my room and walked down the hallway to peek into my son’s room. I let out a silent sigh of relief when I found he was still asleep. He was safe and that’s all that mattered
I quietly went back to my room to get changed for my early morning run. When I was dressed, I put in my earbuds and started my music before pocketing my phone. Leaving the house, I made sure to lock the door. I had my wolf to protect me but my son wasn’t old enough to shift yet.
I had run a lap around the neighborhood before Channing, my son, joined me. We did this every morning before he went to school and I went to work. I was still so lost in my nightmare of last night. The run did nothing to ease my anxiety.
Kim Vincent
“Couldn’t sleep?”
Kim Taehyung
“I woke up early and decided to get an extra lap in,”
He gave me a nod and we ran in comfortable silence. We didn’t need to speak to enjoy each other’s company.
Unlike most parents, I don’t keep secrets from him. He knows about his father and why he isn’t in our lives. His father is also my fated mate. And even though I was only seventeen and unmarked, I still got pregnant. It was my first time. And it was only after I had run did I found out I was pregnant. That’s when I knew he was my fated mate.
He was also only seventeen at the time and wouldn’t have known I was his fated. He probably still doesn’t. The last I heard was he had found his Luna a few months after the attack and they have a son. Not that his life has anything to do with mine. I may despise my mate but I love my son with everything I have. Even though life in a human city hasn’t been easy, keeping him was the best decision I ever made.
Kim Vincent
“Mom, are you sure everything is okay?”
We had finished a lap together before heading home to get ready for our day.
Kim Taehyung
“I’m okay, sweetie. And it’s my job to worry about you” 😏😏😏
Kim Vincent
“I’m a seventeen-year-old high school student, what’s there to worry about?”
Kim Taehyung
“One, if you don’t start getting ready, you’ll be late for school.”
He cursed when he looked at the clock on the stove. He took off upstairs, leaving me in the kitchen, chuckling and shaking my head. I quickly followed his lead, I needed to get ready so I could drop him at school before I headed to the office.
It never takes me long to get ready. I also keep it work formal but I would rather work from home in my pajamas. After I showered , I styled my hairs. I didn’t go to work to impress anyone, I was there to make sure my son had everything he needed and more. I do enjoy my job and I’ve worked hard to be where I’m at but it wasn’t my life.
