Talia’s POV

I walked until I was out of Shadowclaw pack’s territory, and I saw a familiar black SUV waiting for me. The driver got out and opened the door for me.

“Thank you,” I said as I got in. “but who sent you?”

“Lord Solon, of course. Princess, it is good to have you back. We missed you so much,” the driver said before closing the door.

I didn’t say anything as I watched the buildings and trees pass by. I couldn’t help but feel nervous. What would my father say? What would Solon say? I let

    Talia’s POVNolan had been watching my face the entire time as I spoke to Solon. “It’s serious,” he said flatly. It wasn’t a question. He knew me enough to know."My father only has three months left," I said.Nolan cupped my face and said, “Talia, I’m so sorry.”"It is a progressive illness. Leslie has not found a cure yet,” I continued. "We’re going today," Nolan declared.“Right now? You’re with me?”“Yes. Right now. I will call the pack meeting, you will speak to them, and then we will leave. Can you do that?""Yes."Nolan kissed my forehead. His eyes flashed and I heard his order through the pack link. The pack gathered quickly in the courtyard. By the time I stepped out to face them the word had already spread that something was wrong. No one spoke. All eyes were on us."The Alpha King is ill," I announced and there were murmurs of alarm amongst the pack. "It is serious. I need to go to him, and I do not know how long I will be away."A warrior near the front spoke up. "My con

    Talia’s POVDella was still in the doorway, catching her breath. She walked into the room and closed the door behind her. Della looked around to see if anyone else was in the room.“No one else is in here but us,” I said. “What happened?”"Did we capture Jason?" Nolan asked.“Goddess, I wish that was what I wanted to tell you," Della said between gasps. Hearing that made a shiver run down my spine.“Della, you’re scaring me,” I said."I contacted Leslie to ask about how the research was going and whether she had made any progress,” Della began. "Leslie was telling me about it and then she mentioned that the Alpha King had been unwell. Then she stopped herself mid-sentence and asked me not to repeat it."“Unwell? Like sick? What do you mean unwell?” I asked. It was rare for our species to get sick. It didn’t make any sense."She didn’t tell me anything else. She told me to not tell you to keep you from worrying, but I thought you needed to know this,” Della replied.Nolan frowned. I co

    Nolan’s POVTalia had not been sleeping well this past week. Every night she would only sleep for a few hours before waking to stare at the ceiling. Talia did not want to talk about it and I didn’t pressure her.At breakfast she sat across from me. Talia looked like a shell of her former self. She was pale with bags under her eyes.‘We will have to get the doctor involved. Our mate needs to sleep,’ my wolf suggested.Talia turned to the maid standing nearest to her and said, "Maggie, can you add sugar for my coffee?"The maid did not move. Talia registered what she had said and the remaining color that was left on her face drained away.“Leave us,” I said as I stood and opened the door. They left without a word and I closed the door. I pulled my chair beside Talia’s and put my arm around her. She turned into me and cried. She pressed her face against my shoulder, and I held her with my hand on the back of her head."She never got any of it," Talia said. "The marking. The child. Every

    Jason’s POVMaggie was kneeling in front of me with a dagger buried in her chest. She was looking up at me with her hands pressed over the wound. Her mouth was moving, but I could not hear what she was saying. The blood continued to pour from her chest. It pooled around her knees and kept spreading.Then I could hear her."Save me," she said. "Please, Mason. Save me."“Maggie!”Pain radiated from my shoulder as I jerked awake. I gasped in pain and automatically reached for my shoulder. It was bandaged with blood seeping through. I turned my head and found my father in the chair beside the bed with his arms folded."You’re finally awake," Father said. “Don’t try to move too quickly or you’ll rip your stitches. I put in a lot of work to keep you alive.”"How long?" I asked. “How long have I been out?”"Two days. The arrow was deeper than it looked and you pulled it out yourself which cut an artery. You were lucky that they were focused on that girl instead of tracking you down. You woul

    Talia’s POVMaggie’s breath was shallow and wet. I pressed harder on her wound, but she was losing blood faster than I could stop it."Stay with me," I told her. "Maggie. Please stay with me."Maggie opened her mouth to speak but only more blood bubbled up. She coughed hard and I felt it warm against my hands. “Don’t try to speak.”"I am sorry," she said. Her voice was barely there. "I am so sorry, Luna. I let them deceive me again. I hurt you again.""Stop," I said. "You did not hurt me. You saved me. Do you understand that? You saved me!"Maggie attempted to speak again, but she began to gasp. She strained as she tried to get air in. Maggie’s eyes were glassy, but she was still looking at me.‘No, no, she couldn’t die, not like this!’ I thought."The baby," I pleaded. "Maggie, you have to hold on for the baby. Help is on the way.”Behind me I heard Nolan yelling. “Where is the healer? What is taking so long?”“You’re going to be okay. You have to keep breathing. Think about the baby

    Talia’s POVI knew his face before my mind caught up with what I was seeing.Jason.He had changed his appearance but not enough. The moment our eyes met I felt rage build up in me. I had been right the first time I saw him when the wall was being built, but I had doubted myself."Jason, why are you here?!” I hissed.Maggie stood up and looked between Jason and I. "Luna, you’re mistaken. His name is Mason," she said.The confusion in her voice was genuine, and it made my chest hurt. Maggie did not know about Jason’s past and the horrible things he had done in the name of ‘love’. ‘She’s not going to listen to us. We need our mate to command her to us,’ my wolf advised.‘Order Maggie to come to us right now,’ I told Nolan through our bond.“Maggie, come to me right now,” Nolan ordered."He is my mate. I think you have mistaken him for someone else, Luna, Alpha, please,” Maggie continued as she began walking towards us.Jason pushed away from the table and Nolan dropped the gifts. He lun
