ROSIEEveryone deserves a happy ending... but mine feels like it's crashing straight into tragedy. Luna Sarah is gone. Ashton has left the pack. And I'm left with just Dominic and Xylus.When Dominic finds out Ashton left... he doesn't react the way I expected. He doesn't panic. He doesn't ask anyone to go after him.He just says, "It's his choice. If leaving gives him peace, then I'll support him."And I don't know if I'm the selfish one here... because I miss him. Even though the bond is gone, even though everything changed... Ashton was the only true friend I had.It's Dominic's birthday today. But with Luna Sarah's mourning still going on, he says he doesn't want any celebration. He doesn't want no parties and visitors. No one stepping foot in the pack house.I'm banned too... well, not banned, but politely told not to come over unless it's for dinner.Which is basically the only normal routine left between us.But even if he said he doesn't want a birthday... I'm still baking him

DominicIs there anything more exciting than the thrill of an engagement night? I actually wish she chose me... even though I'm so fucking jealous. I keep telling myself not to be jealous, but why wouldn't I be? It could have been Ashton. He was her best friend, and he got to be her mate... while I was the jerk who rejected her the moment the Moon Goddess announced her as mine.Ashton deciding to leave the pack makes me panic. Yeah, I'm worried. He claims he isn't compatible with Rosie... but fuck that. I feel like he understands her more than my stupid, jerky self ever could. And I just hope I don't fucking screw this up again.Mom's death still hangs over me, but I need Rosie. As my Luna. To rule this pack beside me. The Shadow Pack is merged with ours now... and Xylus is the Alpha of their side.Birthday is supposed to come with bliss, but I take the ulterior motive to make her mine... for good. I want to make this step, this big, terrifying, beautiful step.Everything is planned.

Candance The knocking starts like whoever's outside is trying to break the damn door down.Bang. Bang. Bang."Go away," I groan, rolling over and shoving my face deeper into my pillow. Can they just let me exist? Seriously. Death would be quieter than this crap.The banging gets even louder. Of course it does. I just had one of the best dreams of my life, and this dipshit had to ruin it."Candace! Open up! You're late!" Kristen's voice tears through the door like a chainsaw.Right. Her.I should've known. Aside from my now late father (may his soul rest in perpetual chaos), the only other human deranged enough to bother me this early is my best friend Kristen. The same Kristen who has never heard of privacy, boundaries, or knocking like a normal person. All sarcasm fully intended.I peel myself out of bed like a dehydrated worm and stomp toward the door. My hair is a full-blown menace, curls shooting out in every direction like angry vines. Do I care? Absolutely not. I pull the door

Candace's POV This man's presence fills the room before my mind even catches up to what I’m seeing.Xylus.The new Alpha. The man I’ve spent the last twelve hours cursing to hell and back. The same man who, apparently, thinks he can order people out of their homes like he’s sweeping crumbs off a table. The same man who demanded everyone attend pack training like we’re suddenly soldiers in his private army.And the same man whose face… Holy shit.I blink hard once, twice because my brain refuses to accept the image in front of me.He looks exactly... exactly... like the man in one of my portraits. The same stone-cut jaw, same intensity in the eyes, same broad shoulders and the same dark, slightly messy hair that looks like he’s been running his hand through it all night. This isn’t possible.I painted that portrait weeks ago. From a dream. Not from real life. Not from someone I’d ever met. Dreams don’t walk into your room as living, breathing, annoyingly handsome disasters.But he’s
