Mira’s povShe read through it over and over again as she looked at me like I had just stabbed her.She sighed and pinned her butt down on her seat as she looked at me with confused eyes.“You really want to go for this thing?” She asked as I shrugged.“I don’t know?”“What do you mean you don’t know?”There was a sort of silence between us then too. Not an angry silence or anything… just kind of sad. The way you’d try not to let yourself get disappointed.“I don’t know: I’m still thinking about it,” was my answer as I burped and apologized with a wave of my hand. She could see that I was clearly wasted.“Then I need your decision by morning,” she said finally, voice softer now. “We’ll talk about it then.”I nodded and got up. I had no fucking idea what I was doing. Or where the sudden lead weight in my chest had come from. The wine was still swirling through me, thick and dumb, but my legs just started moving— step after step on their own— out of her office and down the hallway.Hal

Kayden’s pov“Dad, I didn’t start it, he did. All I wanted was some peace and quiet. I tried to tell him it wasn’t a good idea.”“You absolutely eviscerated that poor guy.”“He deserved worse.”My father raised a brow but didn’t respond to that. “Lucas is still an elder, Kayden. You should hold back some more. Stop tossing people around. What’s gotten into you? I thought you’d be happy for me.”“I am.”“Then what were you doing in a secluded place and why were you involved in a fight?”I couldn’t say anything. We stayed in silence for a while before I sighed.“I’m really sorry dad,” I muttered. And I meant it. Not for the fight. But for causing him trouble on a day that was supposed to be perfect for him.He looked at me, then nodded once. “You’re lucky. Witnesses said Lucas swung first. Said you held back. That’s the only reason this won’t escalate further.”I nodded.“But you need to stay out of trouble. At least for tonight. Can you do that for me?"I smiled slightly and nodded. "

Kayden’s povSince I was done with Mira, I turned away from the garden as I needed to stay alone for a while.I needed to clear my head. The noise of the party was drowning out my thoughts.I didn’t want to control her. I just didn’t want that guy around her. Not Lucas. Not after what he had done to her in the past. And now she hated me for it.I slowly walked with my hands in my pockets as I made my way to the back of the packhouse and went to a small lake where no one would find me.I stood there for a while as the muffled sounds of music bared through the crowds.Then I heard it.A soft rustling of grass. I heard footsteps.I didn’t even need to turn to know who it was. The smell of it hit me before anything else. Thick. Familiar. Arrogant.“Stop hiding, Lucas,” I said loud and clear, not having to turn around to know it was him. “You’ve always been a chicken, don’t start sneaking now.”Then I turned, slowly, and there he was — Lucas, stepping out from behind the trees. His face wa

Mira’s povThe celebration was still in full swing. Music drifted through the air. Laughter and clinking glasses echoed all around. My mother was dancing with Alpha Remy, glowing like a moonlit queen. Jamie was off somewhere, probably sneaking more cupcakes.But I wasn’t smiling.Not anymore.Because standing right in front of me… was Lucas.His face had my heart pounding in my chest as I looked at him with disgust.This was the bastard who had dumped me like I was worth anything.After all I had given to him, he had thrown me aside like a piece of used gum.It had been hard for me to open up to him. I was already having a hard time with Kayden and this bastard showed up to give me hope that he was better.Well, better my ass, he had showed me he was worse. Now he had the guts to show his face before me.“Mira,” he called me as I snapped back to reality.“You have no right to call me that. It’s princess Mira to you and I’ll address you by your title, elder.”He chuckled nervously. “Mi

Mira’s povThe sun kissed over the trees that morning, illuminating the sky in shades of rose and gold. Today was the day. The day of my mother’s wedding. Alpha Freya was marrying Alpha Remy.I stood there by my window, overlooking the pack grounds below, as they steadily filled with life. Flapping flags of gold and white peppered our lands. Flags from near packs billowed too—packs with wolves, moons and foreign symbols I hadn’t ever seen. The guests had come last night but more were still arriving- lined carriages down our long driveway while standing warriors scanned them coming through.Everything inside the packhouse felt like a rush. Maids were rushing up and down hallways, fixing ribbons, flowers, lightning scented candles. The entire place smelt of fresh roses and sweet vanilla. I could hear laughter and music from outside as soft drums played in the courtyard. It was happening.Jamie burst through into my room in her little flower girl dress. Her hair was curling up so it had
