121. Last Time

LINC - Mom appeared at the doorway, holding Declan against her chest. "I think this little man wants to say goodnight before he passes out," she said.I crossed the room and took Declan from her. He was still for now, but I could sense the tension in the house, with Cast spiraling like he was. Lila, trying to hold everything together as she always did, was at her limit too. "I'm going to sleep out in the living room with him tonight," I said, glancing between Lila and Cast. "Mom and Dad will be upstairs. If either of you need anything, just let me know."I moved toward Cast and gently handed Declan to him. Declan's face scrunched up the second the baby settled in his arms, and he let out a loud and desperate wail. He never cried like that. Declan had been calm from the start, barely fussing unless he was hungry. The crying hit Cast hard.Lila stepped in quickly, taking Declan back from Cast. "He feels your energy," she said, gently rocking the baby. "He's scared when you're scared

122. Try

CAST - I pushed off the bed, moving toward the door, but Lila was in front of me before I could even reach for the handle."Cast, no," she said, blocking my way."I have to go. I'm just screwing everything up. I can't be here."She gripped the front of my shirt and held me in place. "You're not leaving.""I have to." My voice cracked. "I don't deserve to be here. I've ruined everything. You, Declan, Linc. None of you deserve this. Let me go, Lila. Just let me disappear.""No," she said, her grip on my shirt tightening as I tried to pull away. "You're not disappearing. Not this time."I struggled to pull free, but she didn't let go. "Let me go!" I begged, the desperation clawing its way through me. "I don't deserve to be here. You don't deserve this."She yanked me back to her, her hands fisting into my shirt as she pulled me closer. And then she kissed me. Hard.I tried to fight and push her away, but she wouldn't let me. Her lips silenced every thought and fear spinning in my head.

123. Just Like The Man

Cast finally drifted to sleep after hours of fighting it and repeating the same things over and over. I guess depression will do that. I needed to do more research about these things. I felt pretty foolish for not already doing so, but werewolves just don't talk about these things. It was, sadly, a new concept to me. To have someone in my life be so open about mental health. Linc was just... incredible. Cast's wrist was still cuffed to the bedpost, and his breath was steady after what felt like hours. From the edge of the bed, I watched him, my thoughts running wild over everything that had happened and everything that hadn't. He looked peaceful now, almost like things would be okay, at least for Declan's sake. But I knew better. This was just the beginning. Real decisions would have to be made once he healed.I leaned back, staring up at the ceiling. I'd kissed him repeatedly tonight, trying to steady him. To keep him from spiraling. To keep him from leaving.But if I was hones

124. Ready Now

LINC - I carried the oatmeal into the living room, balancing the hot bowl in one hand while watching Lila nursing Declan on the couch. She held him close, focusing on him as she laid her head against the pillow. I walked over and kneeled in front of her."Breakfast is served," I teased, holding the spoon up to her lips. I was enjoying the way her eyes sparkled with amusement as I did."You're going to feed me now?" she asked with a grin."You've got your hands full," I murmured. She took the first bite, her eyes on mine as she tried not to giggle. I took one after her, each bite a shared rhythm that felt like breathing. I jumped up on the couch beside her and kept feeding her."You're spoiling me," she whispered."Good. You deserve it," I answered. We continued sharing each bite. Declan finished nursing and drifted off about the same time we did. She kissed his forehead before gently passing him to me. I cradled him while she stretched."I'll put him down," I whispered. She took the

125. The Challenge

LINC - The circle that formed around us felt suffocating. There was no reason for this, yet here we were. It was a tradition forced on us by the council. This was a formality, something neither Cast nor I wanted, but here we were, standing face to face like we hadn't already agreed on the future of the packs."You ready for this?" I asked. Cast was damn near bouncing on his heels, but he nodded. "We've got no choice," he muttered. "Let's just get it over with."The council's demand for a formal challenge pissed us both off. We'd planned this out. Me leading the pack, him stepping back but still involved where it made sense. Learning until he felt confident enough to do it on his own.What was most important was co-parenting Declan until he healed. They didn't care. Tradition was tradition, and it dictated a fight to submission if power was being passed between two Alphas.The council took it a step further. Since they were now aware of our plans, they required a public display.S

126. I Can Do New

CAST - It had been a while since I'd left Oxford land, driven somewhere on my own, and actually felt like I could handle it. I wasn't sure I'd even return the last time I was here. I had just started my meds, and everything had felt like a blur. Now things felt more... manageable. Today wasn't about me, though. It was about seeing Selena.The rehab facility looked the same, almost like a luxury resort instead of a medical facility. The manicured gardens stretched out in front of me. I could hear water running somewhere nearby, probably one of the fountains. The calmness here had always been so at odds with what I'd felt the first time. Now, I didn't feel that storm raging inside me. It wasn't perfect, but at least it wasn't chaos anymore.This was also the first time I'd left the household since the meds started working. Lila had asked if I was sure I wanted to go. I told her I had to do this. This time, the real difference was that she believed I'd come back. It wasn't like before

127. Moving In

CAST - Boxes were scattered across the floor, some half-open with their contents spilling out. Seeing all my stuff here, in what was now my new home was surreal. I'd been staying here for over a month, but moving my things here made it real. Permanent.Lila nudged a box closer to me, beaming as she looked around. She was so excited I was choosing to stay with them. To be near my son and to be near her. "It's like you've been living here for years with the amount of stuff you've accumulated." She punched at my shoulder, but I dodged. I glanced at the open box of books and laughed. "Maya's doing her best with the real estate side of things, but I need these. You know how much I rely on research."She snorted, teasing me as she pulled a thick book from the pile. "You say that, but I think you just wanted an excuse to take up more space."I shrugged, reaching for a framed photo to place on the shelf. "Maybe. Or maybe I just wanted to ensure I've got enough distractions so you can't b

128. Yet

LILA -Cast's phone buzzed again, and I already knew who it was. Selena's name had been popping up on his screen more often lately. He didn't hide it, but something twisted inside me each time her name flashed. It wasn't about not trusting him, because I did. But there was something about their connection that unsettled me. At first, it hadn't bothered me. I'd brushed it off as him catching up with someone from his past. But recently, the frequency had picked up. The messages started coming at all hours, early morning, midday, and sometimes even late into the night when we were supposed to be winding down. The dings and vibrations started to feel intrusive, weaving into our routines, like she was claiming space in our lives without even being here. Across the room, Cast was scrolling through his phone, not even bothering to hide the smile that came when he read whatever she'd sent. It wasn't like he was sneaking around, but he also wasn't explaining anything either. He was lea

129. Balance

CAST - The days began to shape into a rhythm I hadn't anticipated, one where waking to Declan's morning gurgles and the ensuing diaper changes became the highlight. He seemed to reach his tiny hands out to me when I walked into the nursery. It ignited a feeling of contentment I would have once told you I did not deserve. Once not long ago at all. Living on Oxford land wasn't part of my original plan, yet I was crafting daily routines with my son that wouldn't change anytime soon. Routines that, thanks to Lila starting college, meant balancing business calls with his diaper changes. Not that I was complaining or anything. I would take every second I could with my Little Man. Linc generously offered me the pool house, and we quickly renovated it into a modern studio apartment shortly after I moved in full-time. Lila teased us that there was too much Alpha energy in the main packhouse with the three of us there, so Linc kicked me out. Banished me to my own space. Linc would t

130. On My Mind

The soft hum of my laptop mingled with Declan's little coos as he chewed happily on a colorful teether nearby. Watching him discover everything with such genuine delight always sparked something inside me. A reminder of the simple wonders in this life, even while balancing paralegal studies, motherhood, and the tangled connections between Linc and Cast. This new chapter was challenging, but each piece brought me closer to feeling like myself again. To feel independent and ready to take on the world, no matter what happens in the future. I wasn't going to be caught off guard again. Getting my education was a big step towards that. They both understood and supported me however they could. I was so lucky to have them both, and I knew it. The coursework was invigorating, giving me something completely mine. A space for thoughts that didn't revolve around anyone else. Law had this grounding structure, a reassuring counterweight to the disruption that was my life. I'd catch myself
