I took a deep breath, trying to hold back the tears, and walked over to the drink table. Even though I was underage, I felt an urgent need to keep myself from crying, and since people say alcohol is good for drowning your sorrows, I figured it might do the trick. I filled my cup with punch, and just as I was about to down it, someone grabbed it out of my hand. I looked to the side and met Nicolas’s eyes. He looked like he was trying just as hard not to cry.“Does it hurt?” I asked him. I wasn’t talking about our bond—I meant his arm, which was bandaged up. Without a word, he set the cup down on the table, turned around, and walked away. I stood there, unsure of what to do. Should I follow him or give him space? “Nicolas, wait!”He heard me, but he didn’t stop. It was clear he didn’t want to talk to me. So I gave up on the idea of drinking and tried to drown my sorrows in food instead while I waited for the performances to start. Every now and then, I found myself scanning the crowd for

I began to wake up, a sense of peace and comfort settling in my heart. When I opened my eyes again, I was lying in the sleeping bag in the exact position I’d curled into the night before. I looked around, confused, realizing I was alone. A bit of daylight streamed into the cave, signaling that morning had arrived.“Was it all just a dream?” I asked myself as I sat up. I rubbed my eyes a couple of times, recalling the feeling of being in Phantom Lord’s arms, telling him about my pain and anguish. Could it really have just been an illusion?That scent is amazing, my wolf said calmly inside me. How could a simple dream have eased our pain like this?“Scent?” I drew on Lisa’s energy, sharpening my sense of smell, which immediately brought my attention to my own body. I wasn’t just wrapped in a towel—there was also a soft, white cloak covering me. I pulled it to my nose and inhaled deeply. It was his scent. “It wasn’t a dream…”My heart started racing, and I found myself smiling genuinely

“Auntie!” the girl shouted the moment she saw me walk through the door. She’d been reading a book and dropped it right away to run over to me. “I missed you!”“I missed you too!” I said warmly, wrapping her in a hug.“Why haven’t you come to see me these past few days?” she asked, eyes pleading.“I’ve just had a lot going on lately,” I explained. “Because of that, I’ll have to push back your piano lessons for a little while.”“What happened? Can I help you, Auntie?” I gently ran my hand through her hair. She was so innocent…“I should be asking you that. Why are you still in your pajamas? Do you know what time it is?” She was wearing light pink pajamas with little white teddy bears on them. Her hair was a total mess, like she’d just rolled out of bed.“Well, I’m not going anywhere, so why bother getting ready?” She shrugged, which made me laugh.“You’re the little princess of Siram—you can’t think like that! Whether you’re going out or not, you should always be dressed up and looking

William Goddamn it! I thought as I got into the car. What the hell was wrong with Eliza? No—what the hell was wrong with me? Every word she said kept echoing in my head, over and over, with the sickening certainty that this time, it was really over. Not like the other times. Something about her was different this time. I sped down the road, while my wolf, Will, cursed me with every mile. Sometimes I swear he’s my worst enemy—always fighting me for control. You’re a fucking idiot! Didn’t you see how much our mate was hurting? Keep this shit up, and we’re gonna lose her! he snapped at me. “Shut up!” I yelled, slamming my foot harder on the gas, trying to drown out the chaos inside me with the roar of the engine. In a flash, the car skidded off the road, and I had to slam on the brakes to keep from crashing. Lose her? Wasn’t that what I wanted all along? I kept pushing her away, convincing myself it was for the best. She never seemed ready to be Luna—it’s a responsibility that could

As soon as the song ended, Caroline started clapping, followed by the alpha himself. I looked at them and couldn’t help but smile."That was amazing! Hearing it live is even more exciting," the alpha said. "That song... is it new, by any chance?""It is," I replied, a little shy. "It’s going to be released on my next album. But how do you know that? Did you...?""I showed him all your songs," Caroline said, proudly grinning. "He was the one who asked!""What an honor!" I blurted out. I could feel my cheeks heating up. The alpha himself had taken an interest in my music—and even noticed the one I played wasn’t among the released ones. That meant he’d really been paying attention."You’re part of my people—your talent can’t go unnoticed." It was kind of funny watching the alpha trying to explain himself. He couldn’t even look me straight in the eye. "When she told me, I had no idea how famous you really were. I figured if you were even half as famous as you said you were, you’d have bee
