They leave me alone with my thoughts, and as much as I hate to admit it, I can’t shake the little thrill that rises at the idea. Because if Alec really does care, maybe there’s more to this whole “arrangement” than I thought.

My stomach turns suddenly, that familiar, nauseating lurch hitting me like a wave. I’m halfway to the bathroom before I even have time to process what’s happening, barely making it before I’m doubled over, gripping the sink as the last remnants of soup and tea make a not-so-elegant reappearance.

“Oh, yikes,” Janelle’s voice echoes from the doorway, wincing as she peeks in. “That didn’t sound pleasant.”

Lianne appears right behind her, sympathy plastered all over her face. “Definitely not just a little bug, Izzy.”

I groan, wiping my mouth and taking the water Janelle holds out. “It’s probably just something I ate.”

They exchange a look that, frankly, makes me want to throw up all over again.

“Or…” Lianne begins, her tone way too amused. “It could be something else

    They leave me alone with my thoughts, and as much as I hate to admit it, I can’t shake the little thrill that rises at the idea. Because if Alec really does care, maybe there’s more to this whole “arrangement” than I thought.My stomach turns suddenly, that familiar, nauseating lurch hitting me like a wave.

    Isadora“Is it really necessary for you two to hover like this?” I ask, trying to keep the exasperation out of my voice as I pull the blanket over my knees. Janelle and Lianne exchange a glance before leaning in closer, each armed with a water bottle and what appears to be enough soup to feed a small army.“Necessary? Definitely,” Janelle quips, plunking down on the bed beside me. “Alec’s orders were pretty clear—rest, hydrate, and don’t let you up for anything except to pee.”I groan, rubbing my temples. “Since when did Alec’s word become law?”Lianne raises a brow, settling onto the other side of the bed. “Since he’s practically your full-time caretaker now. I mean, honestly, Izzy, how are you not seeing it? The man’s completely wrapped around your little finger.”I let out a snort. “Oh, please. He’s just taking care of his wife. Any decent man would do that.”“Right.” Janelle’s grin widens. “And I’m sure that’s why he’s hovering over you like a mother hen, losing sleep and bossing

    Her father picks up after a couple of rings. “Alec? Everything alright?” “Yes, sir,” I reply. “I’ve got to leave for a bit—another issue up north. Isadora’s resting, but she could use some company. Nothing serious, she just needs someone with her.” There’s a brief pause before he answers. “Of course. I’m not nearby at the moment, but Janelle and Lianne can be there in a few minutes. They’ve been missing their sister, anyway.” I let out a relieved sigh. “Thank you. Really. It makes leaving her a little easier.” “You know we’re here,” he says, his words carrying a weight of sincerity that reminds me why I’d trust her family with my life. As soon as I hang up, I head out toward the northern perimeter, my thoughts already racing through the possibilities of what’s waiting for us. Each step only intensifies the tension, and by the time I reach the patrol site, it feels like the air itself is brimming with a static charge. Quincey is already there, along with Kai and half a dozen othe

    Alec I’ve faced down demons, taken on rogue shifters, and kept three packs safe through all kinds of threats. Watching my wife, pale and queasy, wrapped in three blankets and looking miserable as she huddles over a bucket? I’m pretty sure this is a whole new level of terrifying. “Don’t look at me like that,” she grumbles, managing a faint glare even though she’s barely sitting up. “I’m fine, Alec. Really. It’s just a little bug.” “Right. That’s why you’ve already made three trips to the bathroom and can’t keep anything down? Because it’s alittlebug?” I try to look disapproving while I pass her another bottle of water. She takes it with a grimace, as if the idea of drinking anything else is almost worse than the sickness. “You act like I’m on my deathbed,” she mutters, hugging her abdomen with a wince. “If you’d just rest like a normal person, I wouldn’t have to act like this,” I say, trying not to let my worry show too much. But it’s hard not to when her face is flushed, her voic

    He nods, his gaze turning thoughtful as he looks out over the lake. “Guess that makes two of us. So…why did you go on that sabbatical in the first place?”I shift a bit before responding, “I realized I’d been a people pleaser all my life. Always trying to meet everyone’s expectations, always trying to fit in, especially after… Well, you remember how things were when we were younger.” I pause, searching his expression before continuing. “I felt like I didn’t know who I was outside of my family and the pack. I wanted to find some control, some sense of self that was entirely mine.”“And the sabbatical gave you that.”“Yeah. Learning about security systems, how they work, managing equipment—it made me feel… stronger. Like I was finally in control of something, after years of feeling pushed around and, well, powerless.”“I get that, maybe more than you’d think.” He gives my hand a gentle squeeze. “For what it’s worth, I think you did exactly what you needed to.”“I think so, too,” I agree

    IsadoraThe lake is glowing with a soft, silver-blue sheen under the twilight, and the air is filled with the scent of pine and mossy earth. But let’s be real—my mind isn’t on the scenery. It’s on Alec, who’s holding my hand in that firm, familiar way, like he’s not letting go tonight, no matter what.We’ve discovered some paw prints near where our patrol unit was attacked, so we can breathe a little easier knowing it’s not demons this time. Rogue wolves, we can handle, so the tension has eased back just a bit, meaning we can finally take a moment to relax.“Picnics aren’t exactly your style, are they?” I tease Alec, giving the setup a once-over as we settle on the blanket he’s spread out by the water’s edge.It’s… cute, I’ll give him that, but there’s a distinct air of Alec’s classic approach—meaning he probably Googled “what to bring on a date picnic” about ten minutes before picking me up. A wine bottle and two mismatched glasses sit off-kilter on the edge of the blanket, looking d
