SAMAELMy thoughts wouldn’t let me sleep, so I carried myself to the only place I knew I would find peace.The forest was quieter at night. The way I preferred it. There were no pitiful gazes, no unsolicited understanding of my grief. It was just me and the grave at the edge of the forest.Amara’s grave.I knelt in front of the simple grave, brushing away the leaves that had gathered since the last time I came here.This was my ritual that had become my anchor. I came here every week without fail. It was the only thing that kept the grief from consuming me.I sank to the floor beside the stone, placing my back against it. I never looked at the name carved on it. It was a reality I was still fighting to accept."Hey," I whispered, closing my eyes as a soft breeze caressed my cheeks. “Have you been lonely?”I waited for a response I knew wouldn’t come.“Father made me bring her to the pack. Did I tell you that her name is Nalani?” Her name tasted bitter on my tongue. “I didn’t want anot

NALANII didn’t expect that my first duty as Luna would be to sit through a dispute hearing.Mabel had told me the night before that it was important that I attended. “You don’t even have to say anything. Just sit there and pretend you care," she said with a casual shrug.So, there I was, sitting beside Samael in front of the small crowd that had gathered in the hall, and trying not to show how nervous I was.The hall was packed with more people than Mabel had said would be there. She claimed it was just a routine dispute settlement, and most times, a lot of people didn’t attend.The number of people I was staring at wasn’t ‘not a lot of people.'The hall was packed. More people than I'd expected for what Mabel had described as a "routine dispute."Samael was seated beside me. His expression gave nothing away. He hadn’t even turned to acknowledge me when I sat beside him. Not that I expected him to after what happened last night.I didn’t know what came over me when I said those words

SAMAELThree days had passed since the hearing, and I could not stop replaying it.She had taken charge of the dispute hearing and solved the case in the blink of an eye. She unravelled Corbin’s lies before I could, and it had surprised me.I knew something had been off about Corbin’s complaint, but she called it out before I could, and I hated that it impressed me.“You are doing it again,” Adler pointed out from his seat across my desk.“Doing what?” I glowered.“Overthinking”“What makes you think so?” I asked with an annoyed snort.“Because you’ve been staring at that file in your hand for the last ten minutes without actually reading it," he deadpanned, and I looked at the file in my hand with a frown.“There is something on my mind," I grumbled, throwing the file on the table.“Your Luna?” he asked with a knowing look."She's not my Luna," I snapped.Adler shook his head. “It doesn’t matter how much you try to deny it. She is Luna now. Amara is…”“Don’t fucking say it," I growle

NALANII stumbled as I raced away from the office. I needed to get as far as I could away from him.The pack members stopped to stare at me as I ran. My heart slammed painfully against my ribs, and I thought it would burst out from the fear.I didn’t want to, but those terrifying eyes wouldn’t disappear from my vision.He was angry.Not just angry, terrifyingly furious.My vision blurred with tears, but I fought them back. I wouldn’t cry because of him.My arm was still aching where he had grabbed it. I could still feel the weight of his body pressed against me as he backed me into the wall and the fury in his eyes as he forced me to complete a sentence I never should have started.The name had felt like poison on my lips as soon as I said it. I regretted it immediately, but it was too late for that.He had looked at me like I was disgusting. Like he couldn’t stand the sight of me.I felt unease in my chest. If I had shifted, my wolf would no doubt be hurt."Nalani?"A hand caught min
