Cassian's POVTrista turned to face me.She looked straight into my eyes, speaking slowly and clearly, with cold precision. "Remember that day we got back to the Ironthorn manor after our honeymoon?"My throat went tight. "I remember."We had just sealed the deal under the Moon Goddess. The whole territory was celebrating the new Luna. I thought it was the start of everything.She gave a chilling, empty laugh."I overheard your conversation with your father in the study," she said. "You said bailing out the bankrupt Silverlight Pack was a move that would net you both prestige and profit."I stepped closer, grabbing her shoulders. "Trista, stop talking."She ignored me."You also said," she looked at me, her voice soft but the words felt like bone splinters, "that mating with me was strictly a calculated choice."At that, tears finally escaped, falling silently, each drop hitting my heart like a painful hammer blow.I instinctively pulled her into a fierce embrace.My heart felt violen

Trista's POVI paused, not answering right away."Trista, I'm personally invested in your field—sleep therapy," Xander admitted openly. "If you're willing, I'd like to formally offer you a position at our Blade Pack's private Healing Center."He paused, choosing his words carefully."Our center runs strictly by international standards. No pack, no family owns it."He added, "Not only will it give you a better career foundation, but I can promise you this: working there, nobody will ever challenge your decisions because of whose Luna you are."I felt his sincerity, but I didn't commit.I just gave him a sincere nod. "Thank you, Xander. I'll reach out when I'm ready."He didn't pressure me. He just smiled, shifted the talk back to research, and let me breathe.The next morning, I went to the bank and purchased a stack of high-value gift cards.Selling the obsidian cane was the absolute priority.I needed the cash to have any power against Ironthorn.If Cassian wouldn't agree to terminat

Third Person's POVCassian took Samantha upstairs immediately.The housemaid rushed over, kneeling with a healing spray, tending to the scrape on Samantha's knee.Samantha sat on the sofa, still sobbing hysterically, buried in the cushions. "Cassian, I never thought Luna Trista would track me down here. She said this place is community property and told me to move out and give it back."She sniffled, tightening her grip on his cuff. "No matter what I said, Luna Trista just wouldn't believe me. She called me a homewrecker and swore she'd never break the mating. She said she'd make sure Algernon carried the 'illegitimate' label forever..."Her voice faded, a weak, victimized defense. "I just wanted to explain, to say you and I were in the past and I'm only here for the baby. She wouldn't listen and she hit me. She threatened to make me and my son vanish from your life completely..."Cassian's gaze was drifting.He was seeing Trista's face just before the slap in the courtyard, that corn

Third Person's POVFred was silent now, slowly turning the wine in his glass.The Trista now wasn't the fierce, bright daughter of the Silverlight Alpha he remembered, but the pride was still in her blood.That essence couldn't be scrubbed out.She would never stoop to harassing Samantha and Algernon unless she was desperate.If she'd sunk this low, it meant they had completely cornered her."Even if Trista did go after her," Fred said, his tone turning serious, "it's because you drove her to it."He looked directly at Cassian. "Trista is not the problem here."Cassian rubbed his temples, his voice low with fatigue. "I'm leaving for my trip this week. I need you to keep an eye on things while I'm gone.""I'm worried Trista will cause trouble for Samantha again."Fred scoffed. "Then just take Samantha and the kid with you, problem solved."Cassian frowned.He searched for a suitable counter-argument, but found none.Fred went for the jugular. "Or you could just kill Trista. Then both o

Trista's POVI looked past Samantha, focusing on the child playing in the garden."I've made up my mind," I said. "You and Cassian are so in love, and you have a child together. I should have stepped aside for you ages ago."Samantha moved forward excitedly, grabbing my hand. "Trista, thank you for doing this!"I calmly pulled my hand back. "This house is where Cassian and I lived after we mated. I left his most valuable belongings in the master closet and the study—I didn't touch those. But everything else that could be removed, I cleared out."I laid out my plan. "I've already booked a renovation crew for you. You pick the style, and they'll handle the rest. I'll pay for the remodeling as a gift to you."I added, "I don't have a specific gift for Algernon. But I emptied the room that used to be my music room upstairs. I told the designer to turn it into a nursery. Consider it a gift for him."Samantha, thrilled, pulled her son over to me. "Algernon, thank Luna Trista."The little bo
