MATTHEW"I understand," Callahan said. "Children notice more than adults account for. I've worked around children in threat contexts before. The secret about doing this kind of thing in a way that seems mundane and not out of the sudden, so people do not register that something has changed—you don't try to be invisible, you try to be unremarkable. You give them something ordinary to notice so they have no reason to look for what's underneath it.""Explain th

Chapter 149MATTHEW"I understand," Callahan said. "Children notice more than adults account for. I've worked around children in threat contexts before. The secret about doing this kind of thing in a way that seems mundane and not out of the sudden, so people do not register that something has changed—you don't try to be invisible, you try to be unremarkable. You give them something ordinary to notice so they have no reason to look for what's underneath it.""Explain that.""If I position myself as a man who is simply present in the school pickup area, in the library, at the park—someone who is always doing something ordinary when visible—the child will register me as background. Part of the unremarkable environment. If I try to hide entirely, children are often precisely the ones who notice the absence of something that should be there." He paused."I'd recommend that I would be using a cover identity that places me in hi

Chapter 148MATTHEW"I am, yes. I have some matters to attend to in Silver Moon territory and the surrounding region over the next few days. I have some people that I do need to meet, so I felt like I should reach out, settle all awkwardness between us" He said it lightly, informatively. Nothing in his tone suggested anything other than routine business travel. "I could come to your office tomorrow morning, if that's convenient? I won't take much of your time.""Ten o'clock," I said. "That gives me time to deal with the morning essentials first.""Perfect. Ten o'clock." A warm pause. "And how is Theo? I hope the transition back has been smooth."The question was natural, concerned, something that showed someone who had been genuinely invested in the outcome of Theo's treatment,I had no rational reason to hear anything in it beyond what it was.And yet."He's adjusting well," I said. "Better than I'd hoped.""I'm very glad to hear t

Chapter 147MATTHEWTheo turned from the window and looked at me directly, and I was struck, as I was regularly struck, by how much of Bianca was in his face. It was almost as if Bianca never left."She said that sometimes I would find things that reminded me of Mama very deeply and it was something to not be afraid or sad about. She also told me that it could come in any shape. Like a familiar smell or a color or someone's voice, or someone who looked like her from far away. And she said that it didn't mean I was having a breakdown, and it didn't mean I was confused about what was real. It meant my heart still knew Mama's shape, and when it found something that matched that shape even a little bit, it noticed." He paused. "She said instead of being scared when that happened, I could acknowledge it. I could say, I notice this, and it makes me think of Mama, and that's because I loved her and she loved me." Another pause, as he was playing with his fingers before he added in a much sm

Chapter 146MATTHEWThe school pickup line moved at the pace it always moved, which was to say approximately the pace of a glacier melting, which required a level of patience that I had never thought I was capable of having, and I spent the fifteen minutes of waiting doing what I'd been doing for most of the past three days—turning the same set of facts over in my mind and failing to find an arrangement of them that made comfortable sense.Two high-ranking officials from BloodMoon City wanted to attend my pack assembly.That was the fact I kept returning to. Not because it was impossible, because this happened before, volunteers from other packs visiting a neighbouring pack, was common, but what made it impossible like to me, was because of the specific combination. The Alpha King himself, who by all accounts had barely engaged with external relations in five years, had locked himself up behind his doors after the death of his mate and focused on just his son was suddenly motivated

Chapter 145BIANCAThe three children sat in their corner of the playground, surrounded by books and dinosaurs, entirely unconcerned with the running and shouting happening around them. The girl had opened one of her books and was reading something aloud—I could tell from the way Theo was listening, head slightly tilted, the posture of someone taking in information. The boy had his book open on the ground in front of all three of them, something with photographs, something they could all look at together.Theo laughed.It was quiet from here—I couldn't hear it through the windows and the distance—but I could see it. The way his shoulders moved, the way his face changed, the brief flash of that grin that was almost his old grin.My eyes burned.He was okay. He was going to be okay. Not perfectly, not without cost, not without the shape of loss remaining in him for a very long time. But he had friends who sat in his corner. He had dino

Chapter 144BIANCAHe was carrying something. A small bag, canvas, worn at the strap in the way that meant it had been used constantly and handled with the particular intensity of a child who didn't separate easily from objects they'd decided were important.I recognized the bag.I'd bought it for him at a market stall eight months ago, before everything, because he'd seen it and pointed at it with the wordless urgency of a child who doesn't yet have language for wanting something. It had been red then. It was still red, faded now at the edges, one of the strap buckles replaced with something that didn't quite match.He'd kept it. Matthew had kept it for him.My throat closed.Theo moved to a section of the playground near the far fence—not the climbing equipment, not the open space where most of the children were running, but a quieter corner near a low bench where there was a small patch of level ground. He set his bag down with the careful

Chapter 14 BIANCA I couldn't believe my son was deciding to treat me as if I was invincible to him, he wouldn't even spare me a glance, as he obstinately looked at the other side. "Theodore pushed Emma," the principal continued, her voice sounding gentle yet firm. "When the teacher intervened, t

Chapter 17 BIANCA I spent the night alone in my bedroom, staring at the ceiling, listening to my family whisper and murmur assurances amongst themselves. And I was locked away upstairs like the mad unstable wife in the attic. Around midnight, I heard footsteps on the stairs. They paused ou

Chapter 15 BIANCA I heard them before I saw them. Matthew's deep voice in the hallway, murmuring something assuring Mia, who replied in a softer tone. When the office door opened, they entered together, a united front that made Principal Briggs eyebrows rise slightly. Matthew wore his Alpha fac

Chapter 18 BIANCA I drove back to the hospital with the unsigned papers burning a hole in my bag. My hands were steady on the wheel, but inside I was screaming, replaying that fertility clinic email over and over until the words were seared into my brain. Conception is certainly possible with pr
