~ RONAN ~I was out of the room before anyone could change my mind. The door slammed shut behind me with a resounding thud that echoed down the hallway like a final declaration. I'd made my choice, and I didn't see Mara in my future.Mom might not see past the sweet facade Mara was trying to put up, but deep down, it was only a matter of time before I exposed the truth — that Mara wasn't the innocent girl she pretended to be, or at lease she was, but not anymore.I strode down the hallway toward my office, intending to wrap up whatever work I could for the day, then find Roselle. If she'd let me. I understood her need for space after the bomb Mara had dropped. The accusation was enough to make any woman retreat. Especially Roselle, with the trauma she'd endured. I wouldn't push her. I'd give her time. But Goddess, it hurt like hell knowing she was hurting because of me.Standing outside my office was a young courier, a warrior barely out of his teens, waiting patiently with a sealed

~ RONAN ~Even though I'm leaving her in Nikolai's care, I can't just walk away like that. The last two times I trusted him to watch over her, something went wrong.

"I need your help," I say quietly,

~ ROSELLE ~With Ronan gone, I don't know what becomes of me in this pack.My biggest fear is running into Ravenna after she told me to leave… or crossing paths with Mara. I'm not scared of her exactly. I'm just trying to ignore the whole "I slept with your man, I'm his mate, and you're nothing more than a placeholder" situation. I keep hoping Ronan's investigation will prove it isn't true. That it was all a cruel lie.I already have my day planned.I'll have breakfast with Celeste, who's probably already waiting for me in the dining room. I'm actually looking forward to the day I'll be able to cook my own meals. Celeste has been teaching me, and I can't wait to get good at it.After breakfast, I'll head to the library to pick out a few books and work on plotting my own story. I always think more clearly in the library. It's easier to focus there than staying in this room… where every corner, every piece of furniture, every lingering scent reminds me of him.I move to the table, helpi
