After we got back to the basement, my mother suddenly pulled out everything I'd packed for college. She mended the fraying strap on my backpack, checked the buttons on my winter coat, and went through every item in the first-aid kit, explaining how to use each one.When a neighbor dropped off the mail and complimented her on raising such a good daughter, my mother smiled, which was rare for her. "She earned that herself. She's stronger than I ever was."That night, she sat me down on the little chair and dried my hair the way she used to when I was small. Warm air swept past my ears as she kept reminding me: don't let the dorm room go cold just to save money, see the campus doctor if you get sick, and if the scholarship isn't enough, use the money she'd be leaving behind.I pretended to be annoyed. "Aren't we buying tickets to Maine tomorrow? You can nag me all you want when we get to the beach."She didn't argue. She just held my hand.We squeezed together on the fold-out bed. Her wol

On the first day of school, every other freshman had parents or pack members with them. Someone asked why I'd come alone.

The place had three bedrooms, but I still slept in the tiny storage room where my mother and I had squeezed together. On New Year's Eve, I turned the heat up high in every room and moved my things into the largest bedroom, trying to prove I'd finally left the past behind.But I lay there until mi

The next morning, Claire had cleaned the guest room spotless and left only a note: Thank you for not turning me away last night. I'll make it on my own, and I won't try to buy your body with money or blood ties again.I didn't reply. I even deleted her contact information. But she kept using social media message requests to send Blackwood updates into my life: Serena was pregnant again. Victor's cancer was getting worse. Vanessa had shown up at the door with her two sons to fight over the inheritance.Later, she told me Victor had collapsed during an argument between the two families and died shortly after. Serena refused to give him a proper Alpha funeral. Vanessa only cared about the assets. For a time, no one came to bring his body back to the Ancestral Grove.Serena eventually kept the house and part of the trust and gave birth to a boy. The boy had a congenital lunar neurodevelopmental disorder that made it difficult for him to shift reliably, but he was a strong match for Claire.
