One:

Grace's POV. "I think I might head out soon." Rhyder turned to face me, he immediately looked concerned. "Why? What's wrong?" I reached for his hands and held them in mine. I smiled sweetly up at him as I spoke. "Nothing, I'm fine - really. I'm just tired and want to call it an early night." Rhyder reached down and gently stroked my jaw with the very tip of his thumb. The concern in his velvety eyes turned to adoration. "Okay, let me just grab my jacket real quick and we can go." I stopped him before he could walk away. I was feeling tired and I did want to go to bed early, but I also had another very important reason for wanting to leave. And it was something that I had to do alone. "You don't have to come with me, I'll be fine, really. Stay - hang out with your friends, and have a good time. I'll see you again in the morning." He looked hesitant as he wrapped his muscular, tattooted arms around my waist and pulled me into him. "Are you sure, babe? I really don't mind go

Two:

Grace's POV. I could barely contain my excitement the next morning. I could almost imagine the look on Rhyder's face when he found out that he was going to have a little pup of his own. I got dressed in a mad rush and hurried across the yard to his room. I stopped in front of the door and took a quick second to catch my breath and compose myself before knocking. I waited, but there was no answer. I knocked again, a little more loudly. "Rhyder? Wake up. I've got something very exciting to tell you." Still, no answer and no movement from inside. I just couldn't wait any more. It felt like I was about to burst. I just had to tell him. So, I tried the door and realized that it wasn't locked. I opened it only slightly - the scene inside made my brows furrow almost immediately. Clothes were strewn haphazardly across the floor. I recognized Rhyder's boots first, then his shirt, and then his leather jacket tossed over the back of a chair. I knew that I recognized the other pieces

Three:

Rhyder's POV. "She told me that she's pregnant."Silence filled the room as my mother stared at me in disbelief with a gaping mouth.A second later, she regained her composure and closed her mouth, reclaiming her role as the stoic Luna of our pack."Is she sure?"She asked cautiously while flattening an imaginary crease from her dress."She says that she took a few tests."My voice remained flat, void of any real emotion."And you believe her?"I stared at my mother for a few seconds, searching my mind for any possible reason that Alexis would have lied to me about something like that.I came up empty."Why would she lie to me, mother?"Another beat of tense silence fell as she also searched for a possible reason. A moment later, she sighed heavily, her delicate shoulders slumping slightly. A sombre shadow fell across her face."I'm not saying that she is, Rhyder. I just want to make sure that she's not - many have done far worse to get what they want."I caught the hint of distrust

Four:

Grace's POV.This was the absolute last place that I wanted to be. I hated both of them for what they did to me - to our bond, our friendship. I hated them for ruining everything and there was a part of me that never wanted to see either of them again.I just wanted to forget that they ever existed.But there was another part of me that wanted to confront them. That wanted to tell them how much they hurt me and how much I hated them for it. I wanted to make them look me in the eye. I wanted to make them face me. And I needed closure. I needed to see them one more time just to convince myself that what I saw was real and that it really was over.And despite everything else that's happened - what he's done. Rhyder still deserved to know that he was going to be a father. Rhyder should be back from Alpha training by now. I had a plan: show up, confront them, and leave again without ever looking back."Grace... is that you, sweety?"Her surprised voice stopped me dead in my tracks. I t

Five:

Rhyder's POV."I've made up my mind. I'm going to talk to Alexis as soon as I get back home - and then I'm going to find Grace and fix things with her."Jackson, my future Beta, jerked his head in my direction and looked at me with cocked brows."That won't be easy for Alexis to hear, mate. You should know how she feels about you by now - all those letters she's sent these past months...""I know. And breaking another girl's heart is the last thing that I want to do, but I can't give her what she wants from me - my heart belongs to Grace, so does my wolf. It's not fair to Alexis to make her think otherwise."Jackson nodded his head slowly and waited for me to continue."Of course, I'll do right by my child. But I have to do right by Grace and myself as well. I can't spend another day letting Grace think that I don't care about how much I hurt her. I have to find her. I have to tell her how sorry I am. And I have to prove to her how much she means to me.""I'm on your side, mate. You

Six:

Rhyder's POV."I've been waiting, hoping that you'd come by to say hi..."I turned around to find Alexis leaning against the door frame with her arms folded in front of her.She had a scowl on her face and something that looked a lot like resentment in her eyes."All this time away at Alpha training camp," she continued without missing a beat, " and not a single response to any of my letters... no phone call... nothing."I opened my mouth to respond, but she cut me off and stepped into my room, slamming the door shut behind her."And now, I find you packing a bag about to run off without so much as a see ya later.""Alexis, I'm sorry. But this is something that I have to do. I was going to find you before I left...""You're going after her, Grace... aren't you?"It sounded more like an accusation than a question. Her amber eyes were shooting daggers at me.I sighed heavily, dragging my hand through my hair and rubbing my neck."I have to, Alexis. I need to talk to her. I need to expla

Seven:

Rhyder's POV.Alexis was sobbing uncontrolably. Her entire body rocked with each fresh wave of sobs that tore through her."What do you mean? What happened? What are you talking about?"I tried to get an answer from her - any kind of explanation. But she only choked on another sob and clutched at the fabric of my t-shirt.She was inconsolable.I didn't know what to do. My heart went out to the state that she was in. I had no idea what she was talking about, but whatever it was had to be horrible for her to be this broken.I wrapped my arm around her and gently stroked her hair with my other hand. At first, she only cried louder. I pulled her closer and after another few moments she finally calmed down enough to look at me.I've never seen anyone look as sad and as shattered as she did in that moment.I was almost too scared to ask again. But I knew that I had to.I slowly wiped the tear stains from her eyes and tucked her hair behind her ears. I kept my voice low."Talk to me. Pleas

Eight:

Grace's POV.Seven Years Later."Are you sure you don't want me to tag along? You know, for moral support..."I smiled in spite of myself and even though Meghan couldn't see me from her spot in the door."I'm sure... for the upteenth time, Meg. I'm just going to pay my respects and say my goodbyes. I'll be back before you even know that I'm gone."I heard her sigh and could almost see her shoulders slumping in disappointment."Besides, you promised to look after Tate for me...""Well, why don't we just bring the little guy along? Your mom would love to see him again."I zipped up my overnight bag and turned around to face my best friend and roommate. She had a hopeful smile on her pretty, doll-like face."No. Like I said, I don't want to confuse things for him by taking him with me. It's better that he stays with his favorite aunty."Meghan crossed her arms and gave me a knowing look."Hmm... you don't want to confuse things for Tate or for yourself?"I turned away from her again and

Nine:

Grace's POV.'I don't think I can do this.'I finally texted Meghan after sitting in my car for almost twenty minutes.I only had a few miles left to go before reaching pack territory and I was doing fine. But as soon as Black Peak Mountain came into view, I lost my nerve.I white-knuckled the steering wheel so hard that my hands began to ache - my breathing grew shallow and rapid, and my stomach turned upside-down so fast that I had to swallow the sick that was crawling up into my mouth.I pulled the car over and had to force myself to take a few deep breaths just so that I could calm down.I jumped when my phone started ringing in my lap.It was Meghan. She was face-timing me."Hey, G. What's up?"Her face was more than a welcome sight. I breathed a sigh of relief as soon as she came into view."I think I'm losing my mind. I don't know why I ever thought that I could do this."My voice broke a little as a new lump formed in my throat. Tears pricked behind my eyes."Grace, you need t

Ten:

Rhyder's POV."It's almost time, Alpha."A beat of silence.I kept my gaze locked on the growing crowd of wolves below. My eyes scanning every face for the only one I wanted to see."Is she here yet?"Jackson hesitated for a second.I turned to face him. He avoided my eyes."She just arrived."My heart began to beat faster. I suddenly felt less like a powerful Alpha and more like some simple school boy about to see his crush for the first time."How does she look?"I felt foolish for even asking, but I had little control over myself.Jackson looked uncomfortable, like this was the last place he wanted to be. Like this was the last conversation that he wanted to have.I stepped forward. He looked up into my face, sighed, and answered anyway."She looks like someone who just lost her father and is about to bury him. She looks like someone who just returned home after being away from everything that she's ever known for years. She looks like someone who doesn't want to be here... at all.
