Third Person's POV

Thomasina intentionally threw the ball back into Trista's court.

If Trista asked for a fortune, she'd be labeled "greedy and low-class." But if she said it wasn't worth much, the humiliation she'd endured all night would turn into a total joke.

Trista looked down at the jagged red stain on her skirt and let out a calm sigh. "Mr. Manwaring gave me this dress, so I don't actually know the retail price. I'll just call him and ask. I'll take the original cost—not a penny more."

    Third Person's POVSamantha walked up obediently to the future heirs of the Blade Pack. "Jonathan, Verity."Wynn had finally had enough of Samantha's fake, affected act.She pushed past Fred and stepped into the middle of the crowd. Trista and Fred hurried after her.Wynn looked at the members of the Blade Pack. "Do you even know who she really is? And you're still willing to take her in?"Seeing Wynn pick a fight, Samantha lowered her head, feeling guilty, and let out a soft cry. "Ms. Simmons, I don't think I've ever done anything to offend you. Why do you keep targeting me?"Wynn was completely fed up with Samantha.In front of everyone, she pointed at Samantha and said, "There you go again with the tears. Do you really think acting pitiful will make people forget what you and your aunt did?"Wynn had exposed Samantha's secrets in public, and it enraged Luna Genevieve.Her face darkened as she scolded Wynn. "Ms. Simmon

    Third Person's POVTheir eyes met, and Cassian's expression gradually turned cold.Trista instantly realized that he was just as clueless as she was.Genevieve had insisted that Seraphina reveal the identity of her adopted daughter only at the banquet. Even Xander had been kept in the dark.It was obvious this girl meant a great deal to Genevieve.At exactly eight o'clock, their sleek luxury car rolled to a stop outside the Blade packhouse.Cassian got out first and opened the door for Trista.Before she could even step out, Xander was already walking toward them.Jonathan and Verity followed close behind."Xander," Verity said, "it's cold out here. Hurry and escort Alpha Cassian and Ms. Holmes inside."Before Xander could respond, Trista spoke up. "That's very kind of you, Verity. Alpha Xander, you should get back to your guests. Cassian and I can find our own way in."Tonight was the Blade Pack's adoption

    Third Person's POVCassian's emotions were clearly getting the better of him. His deep, commanding voice had turned rough with restrained emotion."I told you I'd respect you," he said to Trista. "I told you I'd watch over your happiness, and I meant every word. So why are you still so guarded around me?"His voice rose with frustration. "Do you really think Xander is that much better than I am? That he's somehow more honorable? More worthy of your trust?"Trista was slightly tipsy, her eyes unfocused, giving her an innocent look."Cassian," she replied, "I don't want to be on guard around you. I just... can't help it."Those four words—"I can't help it"—hit Cassian like a blow, sending him staggering back."You destroyed the trust I had in you," she continued. "No matter how sincere you are now, part of me still feels like you're lying to me. I'm terrified of getting hurt by you again!"Alcohol had a way of strippi

    Third Person's POVBefore Trista could speak, Verity cut in, saying, "I brought Dr. Holmes to Xander's office to examine me. Is there a problem with that, Rowena?"Rowena immediately forced a smile. "I'm sorry, Verity. I was just asking."Verity turned to Trista. "My time is valuable. Why are you still standing there? Go inside and get everything ready."Trista hurried into the office.Verity's harsh attitude toward Trista helped ease Rowena's suspicions.She left, though a trace of doubt still lingered on her face.Verity didn't go into the office right away.Instead, she peeked through the crack in the door.But all she saw was Xander and Trista exchanging a few words about work before focusing on their own tasks. She let out a disappointed sigh, then walked inside.Seeing her, Trista stood up and said, "Verity, please have a seat."Verity reached out a hand. As she studied Trista's face, she felt increas

    Third Person's POVTrista fixed her gaze on the distant night sky, her voice barely above a whisper."Sayer has a mother. The three of them are a perfect, happy family. Anyone else trying to force their way in would only shatter that harmony."Every word she uttered so casually felt like a heavy blow directly to Cassian's heart.If only he had understood the weight of her words sooner, he and Trista wouldn't have ended up like this.It was all his own doing. A self-inflicted misery.The pain from the wound on his arm was nothing compared to the agonizing ache ripping through his chest.Swallowing the bitter taste of regret, Cassian opened the car door for Trista and saw her home.The next morning, Trista had just arrived at her office when a knock sounded at the door. It was Verity.Trista smiled, ready to greet her politely, but Verity was already pressing a hand to her forehead, a deep frown creasing her brow."

    Third Person's POVA while later, Cassian emerged from the building, cradling Sayer in his arms.The little boy seemed to have fainted from sheer terror, lying still against Cassian's chest.Cassian wore a sharp black suit, but a deep, jagged gash cut across his arm. Crimson blood seeped through the dark fabric, dripping onto the floor. In the dim light of the night, however, no one else seemed to notice.Bianca Manwaring, Elias's wife, was visibly shaken. A female officer and Humphrey supported her from either side, guiding her out.Trista rushed forward, her eyes wide with worry. "What happened to the boy?""He fainted from the shock," Cassian reassured her. "But they're both safe. Mother and son are fine."As a trained healer—and with a werewolf's naturally sharp sense of smell—Trista immediately caught the sharp metallic tang of blood. Her eyes swept over him, instantly locking onto his injured arm.Reaching out
