Talia’s POV

I went to Della’s room right after dinner. I needed to talk to her. I owed her an apology and I wasn't going to put it off.

I knocked at her door. "Who is it?" she called.

"It's me, Talia."

Della didn't respond. For a moment I thought she might ignore me, but the door opened. Della stood in the doorway with her arms crossed as she glared at me.

“What do you want?” she asked.

“I came to apologize,” I said.

She opened the door a little wider but did not move aside. “You yelled at me

Worst? Here I was wondering what kind of sorcerer he is, to always know exactly when and where to be!

Della. Should. Apologize. To. Talia. You know, for leaving her alone before she was bathed and safe in bed, and for not ordering up a strawberry crepe for them to share before Della left. Talia needs to quit apologizing to everyone.

Della is an irritating self righteous character. Where was she when Talia was being cheated on and disrespected by Jason and Vicki? Sitting comfortably in the palace choosing dresses. She knows nothing of what Talia has been through and now has the cheek to tell her mate all of Talia's secrets!

    Talia’s POVRed wine ran down my chin. The room got quiet. I wiped my mouth, my face flushed from embarrassment. I tried to smile. "I’m okay, really. Sorry." The taste stayed, sharp and sour.“Arya, you better not have poisoned us. Goddess help me, I’ll take you with me,” Della growled.“I didn’t do anything,” Arya said. “I ate some too.”“Della, calm down. I am just a little nauseous,” I said.Clara rushed over and put a hand on my forehead. "Are you sure? You look pale.""I’m fine, I promise." I laughed, even though I didn’t feel like it. "I guess I just can’t handle wine tonight."I looked at Nolan. He tried to look calm, but I could see he was worried. "Are you sure you're okay?" he asked.I nodded and said, “I think so. I don’t think I’ll be having wine for a while.”Through the mate bond, he said, ‘You don't have to pretend in front of me. If you’re not feeling okay, you can tell me. We can go to the hospital now.’‘I am serious, Nolan. I am feeling okay,’ I responded.Walden l

    Talia’s POVI sat up quickly, rubbing my eyes to clear my mind. “I’m fine. Just tired, that’s all.""Alpha working overtime to get that heir," Della teased.“It’s not like that,” I said, my face heating up as I quickly changed the subject. “Where’s Arya?” I asked. Suddenly, there was a noise from the kitchen. Arya’s voice called out, sounding a little nervous but determined. “Walden, I can handle this! You said I could do it myself tonight.”We drifted closer and peeked in through the doorway. Arya was searching the cabinets, moving pots out of the way. Clara was at a counter, chopping vegetables alongside Annie, while Walden supervised.Arya’s voice grew more urgent as pots clanged. “Clara, do we have any more thyme? Walden said it’s the secret ingredient!”Clara yelled back, “Check the top shelf! And move the mitten from the stove! You’re going to catch it on fire!”Arya shot a mock glare. “I’m not going to catch anything on fire.”“You’re doing great, Arya. Remember, just like we

    Talia’s POVWhen I came back to the packhouse, I stood for a moment on the front steps. Sunlight shone through the trees, leaving bright patterns on the porch. I listened to the laughter and quick footsteps of pups playing somewhere behind the house.‘No point in sleeping now,’ my wolf said. ‘Our mate will be suspicious.’‘Then, we’ll get something to eat and some coffee,’ I suggested as we entered the pack house.I went straight to the kitchen. Clara was there, moving fast between the pantry and the counter. Her hair was tied back, sleeves rolled up and dusted with flour and turmeric.“Good morning, Luna. You’re up early,” Clara greeted, pausing when she noticed me. “You know, you can sleep in from time to time. No one expects you to be up this early. It’s not like anything is happening right now anyway.”I sat down, jittery about tonight. My fingers tapped the table. “Don’t worry, Clara. I just woke up early. That’s all.”“If you say so, Luna,” Clara responded.I changed the subject

    Talia’s POVNolan had been unconscious for almost the entire day from the sedative, but he still crashed right after dinner. He stretched out on the bed and started snoring, finally relaxed. I lay awake for hours, replaying everything Arya said.Arya didn’t mean to hurt me, but her words stuck. The more I thought about it, the more I realized she was right. I hadn’t always made the best choices as Luna. Losing my father haunted me the most. Maybe things would be different if I’d been smarter or braver.I watched Nolan sleep, calm and peaceful. I wondered if he ever doubted himself like I did. Probably not. He always seemed sure of himself.‘I am sure he does,’ my wolf said.‘He always gets it right,’ I sighed.‘Nobody can always get it right, not even our mate,’ my wolf replied. ‘We have Moonfire, not the ability to see the future. You chose what you considered to be the best way in the past. Your father knew that you had good intentions.’I wanted to believe her, but regret wouldn’t

    Talia’s POV“I need to speak to her now,” Nolan said. “What? Why?” I blurted, unable to hide my apprehension.“I need to set things straight with her,” Nolan replied. “As her Alpha.” I hesitated. “Nolan, I’ve already ordered Walden to punish her,” I said. “Maybe this can wait? Allow yourself more time to recover.”Nolan didn't listen. He swung his legs off the bed. When I tried to help him stand, he gently moved my hand away and stood up as if he hadn’t been unconscious only moments ago. “No. It has to be now,” he said. I was worried, but I could tell he was set on this.“Okay, then,” I relented.We headed outside after leaving the hospital. Nolan seemed alright, but I kept looking over at him just to be sure.“Stop staring, Talia. I am not going to collapse,” Nolan finally said. “You can’t blame me for checking,” I said. “You should be in bed right now. We don’t know if there are any side effects.”“I promise that I am okay,” Nolan reassured. “I just…I didn’t want this to linger.

    Nolan’s POVI woke up under the harsh hospital lights, everything around me blurry and strange. My head throbbed with a dull ache, and my memories floated just out of reach. What happened? The last thing I remember was talking to Arya by a stream. How did I end up here?‘We are safe. Our mate has been watching over us,’ my wolf said. As he reassured me, I realized someone was next to me. I turned my head to see Talia holding my hand. She looked relieved to see me awake.“Talia?” My voice came out rough. My throat was dry. “What happened? Were we attacked? Where is Arya?”“No, you’re okay. Arya is fine,” Talia said.I slowly sat up, and Talia gave me a cup of water. I drank it down and then a second cup before I said, “If nothing happened, why am I in the hospital?”“First, tell me what you remember. How did Arya’s shift ceremony go?”Her question caught me off guard. I tried to remember. “It went well. Arya finished her shift without any problems. I helped her. She was nervous, but sh
