HannahLater that evening, I walked to Brian's office. I needed to speak with him alone. I knocked on the heavy door."Come in," Brian called out.I walked inside. He sat behind his large desk, buried in paperwork. "Brian, we need to talk," I said.He sighed and put his pen down. "What is it, Hannah? I am very busy.""I am teaching Ava as you asked," I started, keeping my voice steady. "But I want to talk about my future. Even though I am hurt, I do not think I should have to leave the pack when I am finished. This is my only home. My friends are here. I will step down from any authority, but please, do not force me away."Brian frowned. "We already discussed this.""I know," I said. "But you broke your promise to me. I deserve to stay in my home.""You cannot stay, Hannah," he said coldly. "My mate is not comfortable. Ava knows about our past, and she wants you gone. I agree with her.

Hannah The cold was no longer just outside; it had settled deep into my bones. I had been walking for three days without a real meal. My body felt like it belonged to someone else.

It offered little protection, but it was all I could manage. My legs gave out, and I collapsed onto the freezing ground. I curled into a ball, pulling my tattered dress tight around me, but it did nothing to stop the shivering.I stared at the dark forest ahead and I thought about the Moonpeak Pack.

I remembered my brother, the last person who truly cared for me, and the way I had felt when his light went out.What was the point?I was tired of being hunted.

If Derek was just a lone wolf living in the woods, why did someone call him that? My curiosity won and I leaned forward, pressing my ear against the cool wood of the door to catch more.I strained to listen, but the door handle was old and loose. As I shifted my weight, my hand slipped, and the handle turned under my palm. I lost my balance. I stumbled forward, my feet tangling in my own legs, and I crashed through the door, landing hard on the wooden floor of the outer room.My face heated up with total embarrassment. I scrambled to get up, my hair falling into my eyes. I looked up and saw Derek standing there. Beside him stood a massive man with a thick beard and tired eyes. They both looked at me, surprised.My first instinct was to run. I did not know who this other man was, and I still did not know the truth about
