Blair's POV

I was tending to an injured werewolf at the healer's cottage in Northdent, carefully bandaging his wound.

Things were different now. I was no longer the fragile woman who needed someone watching over her every day. I'd saved countless werewolves with my healing abilities, and I'd even managed to recover fully from the wolfsbane poisoning.

I was no longer the fragile woman who needed someone watching over her every day.

"Ms. Whitmore, there are some people outside claiming to be your family. They've been waiting at the entrance all night, begging to see you."I wiped the blood from my hands, unmoved. "Let them wait."It was quite some time before I finally stepped outside. I stood before them, my expression cold.The moment Joey saw me, he dropped to his knees, despite how weak he still was. "Blair! It really is you... You're alive. You're actually alive..."He shuffled toward me on his knees, sobbing openly. "I was wrong! I've sent Emily away! You'll never have to see her again, I swear!

    Third Person POVEveryone went silent. The bowl of medicine slipped from Elowen's hands and shattered on the floor. She stared at Emily in horror. "What did you say? It wasn't an accident? You poisoned Blair on purpose?"The truth left them sick with guilt. For three years, they'd gone out of their way to protect the very woman who'd tried to murder Blair. And for her sake, they'd blamed Blair again and again, forcing her to relive the worst thing that had ever happened to her.Alaric buried his hands in his hair, overcome with grief. "What have we done? God, what have we done? We helped the woman responsible for our daughter's death get away with it!"Jesse suddenly lunged at Emily and wrapped his hands around her throat, squeezing with all his strength. "I'm going to make you pay for what you did to my sister!"Behind his locked bedroom door, Joey had heard every word. Now that the truth was out, he could barely stand the thought of himself. He'd protected the woman who'd poison

For seven whole days, he didn't set foot outside.His wolf was growing weaker from the grief, too, and was on the verge of falling into a deep sleep.It turned out Joey hadn't been exaggerating when he said he would lose his mind if anything ever happened to Blair again.Her family was no better off. They were consumed by guilt and regret. They'd spent every day keeping Blair company, partly to cover for Joey's affair with Emily, but also because they'd genuinely been afraid something might happen to her again.And yet, the one time they'd abandoned her, she'd disappeared from their lives for good.Alaric spent his days staring at photographs of his daughter, his eyes constantly bloodshot.Elowen had become so distraught that she wandered around the house with a bowl of medicine, searching for Blair as though she were still alive.Jesse had even quit the pack's

    Third-Person POVJoey gripped the steering wheel as he sped toward the crash site, pushing the car to its limits. Alaric, Elowen, and Jesse sat in tense silence, their faces grim.They'd already decided exactly what they were going to say to Blair when they caught her pulling this stunt. But the moment they got out of the car, they stopped dead.Blair was nowhere to be seen. The air reeked of smoke and burnt metal. Far below the cliff, the charred remains of a car lay overturned among the rocks. The ground around it was scorched, with black smoke still rising from the wreckage.All the angry words they'd prepared died on their lips. This wasn't some elaborate lie Blair had cooked up because she was upset. There really had been an accident.The sight left them reeling, bringing back memories of Blair lying helpless after she'd been poisoned.Joey's knees buckled, and he collapsed to the ground. Three years ago, he'd been able to hold Blair in his arms and listen to her faint heart

    Third-Person POVJoey nearly dropped his phone. "What did you just say? Who was in an accident?" he shouted.The werewolf warrior on the other end repeated the news in a grave voice. "Mr. Crain, our patrol came across the scene of a serious accident on the cliffside road last night. Your mate, Ms. Blair Whitmore, was involved."We recovered some personal belongings near the wreckage. You and her family need to come and identify them as soon as possible."Joey went pale. His chest tightened painfully.Just then, Alaric, Elowen, and Jesse entered the room and found him standing there, gripping his phone, his face drained of color.Alaric frowned. "Joey, what's wrong? Who's calling?"Joey ignored him, staring at his phone as though he couldn't believe what he'd heard. "Say that again."The warrior was losing patience, and his tone turned sharp. "I've already told you! Ms. Whitmore was in a car accident and went over a cliff. The wreckage is horrific! We've done our part by notifyi

    Blair's POVJoey had barely finished speaking when I heard someone sobbing behind us.Emily had hurried over with the rest of my family to see what was going on, only to hear Joey's promise to me. Her face was deathly pale, her eyes filled with tears.Joey immediately let go of my hand and instinctively took a step toward her. But when he caught the cold look in my eyes, he stopped himself and lowered his head without a word.Jesse saw the exchange and stormed over, pointing an accusing finger in my face. "Blair, do you really have to push Joey this far? Does it make you feel better to humiliate Emily by making her watch him choose you?"Dad came over too, looking at me with bitter disappointment. "Blair, how can you be so cruel? It's been years! Why can't you just let it go? As long as I'm here, you're not sending Emily anywhere!"My own flesh and blood stood in front of Emily, shielding her from me. They looked at me as though I were their enemy.I lowered my eyes, too numb to
