Yes. There's a third timeline where Kloff is the one who retains his memory and he regrets every bit of it. Different shit goes down and the novel basically ends with Kloff realizing that no matter how much he apologizes, he can't apologize to the Aeroc from the first timeline. The Aeroc from the first timeline is gone so he just focuses on loving the present Aeroc in hopes that one day he meets the soul he did wrong to for a chance to beg for forgiveness. So it feels like he "settles" for Aeroc from the third timeline that's why it is a bittersweet ending.
They have kids in the third timeline side story 4.5. Kloff was obviously overcompensating the relationship.. they have the same set of children as well.
Rapiel miscarried during the TL3 but got pregnant again months before Aeroc turned into an omega again… Rapiel’s son Sioux is fated partners with Lennoc Aeroc’s son.
If you read the 4.5 before Jester was born, Kloff mentioned Lennoc liking Sioux which surprised Aeroc. Mentioning Lennoc was like him because of how he acted in front of Sioux.
In side stories 4.2 Lennoc’s diary, it was Aeroc who informed Kloff that Sioux likes Lennoc. And Kloff was so surprised.
It’s hard to catch. You can tell from their conversation that 4.5 is not TL2 timeline
4.5 dialogue (before Jester’s birth)
Clough was nonchalant.
"Lenoc likes Sioux and wants to sleep there and so does Eurea."
"Lenoc likes Sioux?"
Aeroc repeated in disbelief, remembering his own son who frowned and looked as if he would be in trouble when he were Sioux.
"He’s hating him because he likes him."
"Well, considering Lenoc is your son, I suppose I can understand where that comes from."
Here is 4.2 (Lenoc’s diary) which is after Jester’s birth.
I could hear my mother's and that man’s voice in my ear. They sat not far away. I wanted to open my eyes, but I couldn't. I tried to stay awake, even in my vague consciousness, for fear of what that man would do to my mother.
"I really didn't realize Sioux liked Lenoc."
"Rapiel said Sioux grew to like him when they spent the summer together last year."
"He’s fine as long as he keeps his mouth shut, but I don't think he's old enough for an Omega."
Kloff of TL2 was more unaware of things unlike this 4.5 version so it makes you think(?) which one is he?
And knowing TL2 Kloff he wouldn’t let Aeroc spend so much that it crippled the house… 4.5. it sounds like a fun husband spoiling his wife episode… but Kloff of TL2 was a miser… he made it clear no unnecessary spending. Aeroc had to ask for allowance 4.1
Kloff of TL3 (just saying) might be overcompensate his marriage to Aeroc… spoiling him.. because if that was TL2 he would be scolding him..
Guurl, what you’re reading takes place a few years after the marriage, so of course Kloff would spoil Aeroc sometimes. And no. In timeline 3 they didn't get married. Hell No way timeline 3, the Aeroc who has a pride as Alpha will marry him, and get pregnant.
Volume 4 is a side story of timeline 2, honey. Volume 5 is the begining of timeline 3, it started with The madman Kloff attacked Aeroc in the Garden
Vol 6 is What If story.
Srsly are we reading the same story??
They aren’t legally married in TL2 just by contract. So the same can be said with TL3.. it will be binding contract. TL3 we are left with an abrupt ending that doesn’t confirm marriage or pregnancy; but Kloff was already mentioning children name so he has no intention of letting Aeroc go. It’s an open ending. Kloff was expecting to start a family with Aeroc again in this new world.
Aeroc is prideful.. and wouldn’t agree easily. But he was willing to keep Kloff after the incident because he wants him… so we are in this limbo of how far will the relationship go? He was angry being treated like an omega but he didn’t exactly stop anything from happening….
-Truth to be told, as long as he didn't lose face in public, becoming an Omega wouldn’t have made any big changes than he currently was. (so he was open to the idea of being with Kloff…)
Yes.. 4.5 looks like it’s from TL2 because it was before Vol 5 was published but a lot of the things written are different… that’s why I said it’s up to you what you want to believe.. because even I at first thought 4.5 is TL2 material but how partners treated each other in 4.1, 4.2, 4.3, and 4.5 are different… it makes you think as a reader.
Aeroc never openly flirted or seduced Kloff he only did that in TL2 out of anger… Kloff always mentioned even in Lenoc’s diary. Aeroc from TL2 and TL3 are different, TL2 Aeroc is more reserve… Kloff initiates sex and ropes Aeroc into it most of the time.
But 4.5 Aeroc was more confident in seducing Kloff. Let’s say it’s because Aeroc did grow accustomed to the relationship; but notice the patterns of their conversation, mannerisms, and inconsistencies.
Lenoc’s diary as much as he spoils Aeroc. Aeroc has to hide expenditures from Kloff taking the kids and talking to them to keep things hidden from Kloff. It was clothes for goodness sake.. but in 4.5 he can blows as much money on stuff without thinking (?)
4.5 Aeroc was more confident that Kloff will indulge his whims unless it’s soirees. It makes you ask things…
I can read the same book and have a different interpretation from you. Having a different understanding of something doesn’t make it wrong.. Winter wrote this with a lot of vague details that you can piece together, right or wrong it’s hard to tell.
Idc you can interpret it however you want, but spreading it as a truth can misundrrtand some people!
Kloff was already mentioning children -- IFFFFFF. HE SAID IFFF they were had children!!! Cuz no they don't have any! That's why Aeroc said he is crazyyy!!
And what the hell are you rumbling about? Let me tell you what you said before.
You said Timeline 3 they have children
I said no.
You said the children are in volume 4.5
I said how the heckkkk the children in volume 4, are the kids from timeline 3, which is started in volume 5? The fuck is logic?????
Now I know where the fuck the rumor about the kids in timeline 3 came from. I used to reread tl3 cuz I think I missed something but found nothing.

Saw the raws and it says The End ch75 so there won't be story about their third life?
