Ximena's POV

I drove out of John's home with a wide smile on my face. It felt so good to remember John and clear up our misunderstanding. I had thought I did not have any family but I was wrong. John was my family. I remembered everything he did for me in the past and for that, I was eternally grateful. It felt like a huge weight had been lifted off my shoulders. The drive back to my pack was only a short one. It did not take me a long time before I arrived at the hospital.

I packed my car and headed in.

"Doctor Ximena, the director, asked that you come to see him immediately after you arrived," the receptionist informed me. I sighed and walked towards his office. I gently knocked on the door before heading in. "You are early," he said sarcastically.

"I just came back from the pack you sent me to. I did not even have the time to go home and change before coming here," I replied.

"Did you sleep over there?" he asked, accessing my appearance. My hair was a bit disheveled and my clothes were wrinkled.

"Yes I did because my car got spoiled on the way and it was raining heavily," I said.

"How was the journey and the patient?" he inquired. The journey was quite eventful. Where do I even begin to explain? I painfully regained my memories. I remembered I lived a very sad and unhappy life in the past. I remembered I had mates who rejected and abandoned me. I reconciled with an old friend. And the patient I went to meet was actually my past tormentor. Quite an eventful journey indeed.

"Everything went well," I replied curtly.

"Did you replace out what was wrong with the patient? We were asked to take special care of her. You do remember that she is the Luna of her pack right? A very important figure. The Alpha had asked us to take special care of her...,"

"The Alpha?" I muttered cutting him off.

"Yes, is there something wrong with that?" he asked, staring at me skeptically.

"No, nothing is wrong," I replied.

"Where was I? You taking care of her is a huge responsibility for you and this hospital. I trust you won't let me down," he inquired.

"I won't," I responded.

"Great, you can leave now. Take the rest of the day off and resume early tomorrow," he said, gazing back into the pile of files on his desk. It was his way of saying that I was dismissed. I turned around and left his office. I headed towards mine to drop some things and also to drop Hailey's blood sample down at the laboratory. I was surprised when I met people waiting for me.

"Doctor Ximena, you are back!" Nurse Judith exclaimed happily.

"What is going on and why do you look so happy to see me?" I asked incredulously.

"These patients insisted on waiting for you. I tried to refer them to another gynecologist but they refused. They wanted to be treated by you," she replied.

I glanced at the three women sitting before glancing back at my watch. I still had some time left before my kids closed from school. My patients were my priority after all and I could not abandon them. Some people referred to me as a workaholic but I liked to call it being responsible.

"Send them in after a minute," I said to her. She nodded. I walked into my office and wore my lab coat. My office had already been cleaned and arranged thanks to Nurse Judith. The patients started to come in and I attended to them with utmost concentration even though there were some issues that evaded my thoughts once in a while. I tried my best to push them to the back of my head. After I was done for the day, I drove towards my children's school.

"Miss Blake, it's so nice to see you," Mason and Madison's teacher greeted politely. We exchanged pleasantries.

"I must say your kids are little geniuses. Sometimes, I feel like they are too intelligent for their class," she complimented. I smiled in response. Praises like this made me feel really proud of my children. I felt fulfilled like I had done a good job in raising them. But, I had to reject the offer she was hinting at. She was trying to tell me that they should skip grades again. They already did once and that is enough. I don't want them to be with their age group. Not with grown-up kids. I didn't want them to end up not having any friends because of the age difference. I was already worried they were acting too mature for their age. She went to bring them after we had discussed them for a while.

"Mummy," Madison squealed as she ran into my arms happily. I picked her up with a smile.

"Good afternoon Mummy," Mason greeted and hugged me also. I pulled them both in my arms. It felt like ages since I last saw their cute little faces.

"How have you both been? Did you miss me because I missed you both a lot," I said. I held both their hands as we headed towards the car.

"We missed you too mummy but, Daddy made sure we didn't feel lonely. He stayed with us throughout the night, he read us a bedtime story and drove us to school early this morning," Madison explained.

"Madison is right. He never allowed the nanny to do a single thing. I'm sure she felt frustrated at one point," Mason chipped in. I chuckled as I entered the car. They both sat at the back and fastened their seat belts. Speaking of Cole, I really had to have a serious conversation with him.

I drove towards our house as I chit-chatted with them. I parked on the driveway and we got into the house. The nanny welcomed us and took the kids to their rooms. I went into my room and took a cold and refreshing shower before laying on my bed. My mind wandered to the events that occurred today. No matter how hard I tried to stop thinking about it, I just could not. I closed my eyes and slowly drifted off to sleep thinking that would solve my problems and stop me from thinking.

But, it did not. My mind kept replaying all the events of the past even in my unconscious state. The good, bad, happy, and sad. It was like watching my life play out before me in a cinema.

"Ximena, I know you can hear me," my wolf growled. I sighed.

"I don't understand what this is all about. We regained our memories and know we have mates. Isn't that a good thing?" Freya asked.

"Mates?" I scoffed. "Don't you feel angry about all the humiliation you went through? The betrayal? He married the woman who tortured us so much," I said in disbelief.

"I'm upset but to be honest Alex, Julian, and Philip betrayed you. It's not Finn, Nate, or Daniel's fault. It's not my fault either," she retorted.

"Go back to them then but before that, did you feel the mate bond when you saw them earlier? Did you feel anything at all?" I inquired.

"Of course, I felt something. I'm sure you do too. You broke the mate bond which was why the attraction wasn't strong anymore. But, something is there which should tell you that our mate bond is way stronger than you can imagine. Even after everything, we still felt something," Freya insisted. I opened my eyes when I felt someone's presence in the room.

"What are you doing?" I asked Cole was sitting beside me and staring at me. He looked surprised like a deer caught in the headlights.

"Were you watching me sleep?" I inquired getting up from the bed.

"No, of course not. I just came in. How was your trip?" he asked. I could tell he was trying to change the topic. He stood up and removed his suit jacket.

"It was fine," I replied. He nodded.

"Cole?" I called out to him seriously.

"Hmmmm," he hummed in response.

"Remember when you said you would never lie or keep something away from me?" I asked.

"Yes? Is something wrong?" he inquired skeptically. I realized now how Cole always disagreed with me when I talked about going to the neighboring packs and replaceing out about my real identity. He knew who I was all along. He couldn't tell me that with all his connections, he never found out about the pack I came from. He found out but he chose not to tell me anything about it. But why would he hide such a big secret from me?

"Then why did you lie about not knowing who I was? Y..you know who I am, don't you?" I asked skeptically hoping I was wrong but the look of shock on his face confirmed my suspicions.

"Did you regain your memory?" he inquired incredulously.
