XARION'S POV

My company meeting wraps up smoothly, and I'm feeling pretty damn good about it.

Three major investors just agreed to back our new territory expansion, which means more resources, more influence, and more stability for the pack.

I shake hands with Harlow Hale, the lead investor, a sharp-eyed wolf in his fifties who's known for being ruthless in business but fair when you earn his respect.

"Excellent work, Alpha Xarion," Harlow says, clapping me on the shoulder. "I think this partnership is going to be very profitable for all of us."

"Agreed," I reply with a firm nod. "I'm looking forward to it."

The other two investors, Helena Graves and Davidson Stone, both nod in approval. Helena adjusts her designer glasses and smiles. "Shall we head somewhere more private to discuss the finer details? I know a great lounge nearby."

"Sounds perfect," I say, gesturing toward the door. "Let's head out."

I turn to Andrew, who's been standing near the conference table reviewing some docum

  • I Need You, My Luna   CHAPTER 25

    MEGAN'S POV"So the steel framework should be delivered by next week?" I ask Caitlin as we walk through the aisles of Prime Build Supply, one of Arkon's largest commercial buildings for construction materials and general supplies.Caitlin nods, flipping through her tablet. "Yes, ma'am. I've confirmed with the supplier. They're also throwing in a discount since we're ordering in bulk for the branch construction.""Good," I say, satisfied. "And the permits?""All cleared," she replies with a smile. "The Valemont sponsorship deal really opened doors for us. The council's been very cooperative."I can't help but feel a hint of pride. Winning that deal was a major milestone, and now things are finally moving forward. The new Stone Corporations regional branch is becoming a reality."Mommy, can we get gummy bears?" Makayla gently pulls on my hand, looking up at me with those big, pleading eyes."And chocolate," Maverick adds quickly, not wanting to be left out.I smile down at them. "We'll

  • I Need You, My Luna   CHAPTER 24

    MEGAN'S POVIf someone had told me a week ago that I'd be standing in Xarion's company, voluntarily bringing the twins to see him, I would've laughed in their face. Or maybe scratched their eyes out, depending on my mood.But here I am.Because as much as I hate being in this position, as much as it grates on every nerve in my body to be anywhere near him, I love my kids more. And they wanted to see him again.Last night, while I read them their favorite bedtime stories like I promised, Makayla looked up at me with those big, hopeful eyes and asked, “Mommy, when can we see Daddy again?”Maverick had nodded in agreement, his little face so earnest it made my chest ache.I honestly wanted to say no. That I didn't want them near their father. That they couldn't see him because I was still angry and hurt and confused.But seeing their innocent and hopeful faces as they stared at me, I couldn't.So I set my pride aside. Swallowed the bitterness. And decided that after my meeting with Mr.

    MEGAN'S POVDanielle's gaze moves past me to the building behind, then back to my face. I can practically see the wheels turning in her head, trying to figure out why I'm here.For a second, neither of us moves. We just stand there, locked in some ridiculous standoff like we're characters in a bad drama. Her perfectly manicured nails tap against her phone screen, and I can feel the fake smile she's forcing on her lips."Well, well," she says, her voice dripping with condescension. "Look who decided to crawl back to Arkon. I heard you were back in town, but I didn't expect to see you here."I arch a brow, refusing to give her the satisfaction of looking rattled. "Believe it. I'm here. And I'm not going anywhere."Danielle's eyes narrow slightly, and I realize she's assessing me the same way I'm assessing her. Looking for weaknesses.Her smile tightens, and I can see the irritation spark in her eyes. Good. Let her be irritated.She takes a step closer, her face hardening into a cold a

  • I Need You, My Luna   CHAPTER 21

    MEGAN'S POV“Megan, are you sure you're doing perfectly well?” Alpha Elias’s deep, reassuring voice filters through the speaker of my phone.I press the phone closer to my ear and offer a small smile, even though he can’t see it. “I’m fine, Alpha. A few bruises here and there, but I’m doing much better now.”“That’s good to hear,” he says, the sound of papers rustling faintly in the background. “Vance told me what happened. That you were in an accident. I hate that you and he had to meet for the first time under such circumstances, and I wanted to hear from you directly that you’re truly okay.”I exhale slowly, my fingers tracing the material of my dress. “Yes, Alpha. I promise I’m alright. It could’ve been worse.”He clicks his tongue, clearly displeased. “Did you happen to recognize the face of the driver who hit you? Vance mentioned the car sped off before anyone could get a look.”I shake my head even though he can’t see me. “No, it all happened so fast. I didn’t see the driver’s

  • I Need You, My Luna   CHAPTER 20

    MEGAN'S POVI'm currently sitting quietly in the passenger seat of Vance’s car, staring out the window as the city lights blur past. It’s been forty minutes since we left the hospital, and still, I can’t wrap my head around it. Vance is my boss’s son. The same man Alpha Elias has been trying to set me up with for months now… is the same man who pulled me from a wreck tonight. Fate really does have a twisted sense of humor.Vance’s car moves smoothly along the quiet street until he finally parks a little way down from my house. He insisted on driving me home, even after I told him I could take a cab. And honestly, I’m too tired to argue. My thoughts are all over the place anyway.“Hey, are you okay?” Vance says, breaking the silence. His voice is warm and edged with curiosity. “What’s on your mind? You look like you’re fighting an entire war in your head.”I blink and turn toward him, realizing I’ve been clutching my hands together too tightly. “Sorry,” I say softly, forcing a lit
