11 Chapters

Chapter 1 A mask covered half of Leander's face. He looked down at me, his voice flat.

"You don't know who I am?"I was too worked up to really hear him. I kept my head down and typed."I'm sorry, but... would you go on a date with me tonight?"He looked at my red-rimmed eyes. He did not even ask why. He only said quietly, "All right."The door behind me flew open, and Steve followed me out.The smile was gone from his face. He seemed to realize this was not going the way he had expected."Lavinia! It was a joke, and you actually went and found someone else?"I gripped my phone and backed away a few steps.Steve came closer, glanced at the stranger beside me, and sneered."Just because I brought Caroline, you grabbed some random man and offered yourself to him? And he's wearing a mask. Is he too ugly to show his face?"I looked up at him, then down at my phone and typed, "You're the one who replaced me first. And you've already marked her, haven't you?"He read the screen and frowned. "Five years together and you can't take a joke? Besides, Caroline is my mate. Was I sup

Chapter 2 All the way from the elevator to the hotel doors, what Steve and Caroline had said kept replaying in my mind.

Five years ago, the first time my voice locked up on a call, I panicked and typed apology after apology.After that, every time it happened, he would say gently, "Lavinia, don't worry. I'm here."When Caroline mocked me upstairs, he stood right there and said nothing.Leander's hand was warm and steady. He led me into the open space outside the hotel doors before stopping.He asked, "This is a date. Where do you want to go first?"My head was still full of static. I could not answer.He did not press. He took out a handkerchief and wiped my tears away. "Take your time. The wind is cold tonight, though, so we shouldn't stand here too long."He guided me to a sheltered spot by the wall, then stood in front of me with his back to the wind.Quick footsteps approached us."Lavinia!" Steve had followed me downstairs.He saw that I was still with Leander, and his face darkened."Enough. I came all the way down here. Come back upstairs with me." He held out his hand.I stepped back without thi

Chapter 3 He took me to a reservation-only restaurant that was popular with the pack. I stared blankly at the menu, then at the waiter.

Leander spoke to the maître d', and we were shown to a private room.He took my hand again and said quietly, "Don't hold back. Tell me what you need and I'll see to it."He pulled out my chair, then took his own seat.I steadied myself before I asked, "Leander... Steve is the Alpha of the Grassland pack. You, you... should be careful. Don't put yourself at risk just to help..."He only smiled. "It's fine. I find you interesting."He had already cut his steak into pieces before swapping plates with me."Lavinia," he said, looking at me, "do you lose your voice every time you get nervous?"My hand stilled on the glass. I nodded."Since you were a child?" he asked."It started t... ten years ago..." I set the glass down and explained. "Ten years ago, on the night of the full moon, my whole family was on the road. Rogues attacked us. My father was driving when he realized... someone had tampered with the car. He had been drugged with a heavy dose of wolfsbane. He died fighting, and my moth

Chapter 4 Leander was easy to be around. He gave me the perfect date.

On the street, he raised an arm to shield me from the noisy crowd.When we left the restaurant, he draped his coat over my shoulders before I could feel the cold.At a red light, he took his hand off the wheel and asked if he could hold mine a while longer.I did not refuse any of it.My voice did not lock up once all evening.He drove me back to my house in my pack's territory and asked, "Shall I walk you in?"I shook my head. "No, that's okay."He did not push. He held out his phone. "You can't really mean for this to be our only date."I stared for a second, then laughed. I took his phone and sent myself a friend request.I took out my own phone and accepted it in front of him."Why, why the mask?"He did not answer directly. He said he would find the right time to show me his face.I was getting ready for bed when my phone lit up with a message from a friend in the game."Wasn't today the day you and Steve finally met? What's he doing here?"Below the message was a location pin and

Chapter 5 I shut down every defense.

Before long, other packs moved against Grassland. It had always been the hub that connected the major packs.Rogues and vampires alike had their eyes on it.Once that was done, I searched for Caroline's name.The search turned up a result: two years ago, when Grassland was attacked, she was already at Steve's side.Steve messaged me less than two hours after I sent him my father's defense plan for Grassland. "Problem solved. I have no idea who was kind enough to save me."I sat grinning at that line like an idiot for a long time.I had meant to wait for him to ask and then surprise him.He never asked, so I kept it as a small secret of my own.Now I pulled up the list of people Grassland had thanked after the attack. Caroline was on it.In the photos, Steve had his arm around her waist, and she was tucked against him.I contacted Grassland's Gamma. He thought for a long time before answering."Caroline saved this pack. Two years ago, when we were attacked, she brought us several plans

Chapter 6 Caroline looked at the wreck and laughed instead of apologizing.

"Don't tell me your chat logs with Steve were on there. You can't even speak. What's the point of keeping them?"I struggled to open my mouth. Then I heard footsteps.Steve came up the stairs and through the doorway. He found Caroline crumpled on the floor in tears.He pulled her into his arms, his face tight with worry. "Are you hurt?"Her shoulders shook as she sobbed.I lifted the computer with both hands. "Why don't you ask her why she smashed my things?"Steve yanked it from my hands and slammed it onto the floor."It's a computer. She didn't do it on purpose."This time, the screen came off completely.He shielded Caroline and glared at me. "I never realized how petty and mean you are!"I took a breath, crouched, and gathered up the pieces.A hand settled over mine."Let me help you!" Caroline bent down, blocking Steve's view, and smiled at me.Then she brought her heel down and ground it into my foot. The pain made me curl in on myself.She grabbed my right hand and pressed it a

Chapter 8 While Grassland fell apart, Leander asked me out a second time.

He drove to my building himself. Once we were on the road, I noticed something was off."Is this... the road to the Grassland pack...?""You don't want to go?" he said mildly. When I did not answer, he slowed and pulled over.I looked at him and asked, "Why are we stopping?""You don't want to go?" he asked more seriously this time.I froze in the passenger seat. "How did you know?""When you're nervous, you keep touching your index finger."He answered, then looked ahead again. "I'm curious about you, but that doesn't give me the right to disrespect you. So where would you like to go?"I thought about it. "I haven't really looked at the sea since it happened ten years ago."I regretted it as soon as the words were out. The last thing I wanted was to show anyone how easily I broke...Leander did not ask anything more. He just nodded.He turned the car toward the pack by the sea anyway.I was still trying to process what was happening. "I... didn't say I wanted to come today.""I know."

Chapter 9 "There's no need to worry. I've already sent people to maintain order in Grassland."

He gestured for me to relax. My mind was racing.Why had I run into him at that hotel in the first place?Then it hit me. That had to have been the week of the Pack Alliance.At the Alliance meeting, the Alphas from every pack gathered to talk.It was held in a different place every year."So... that day... you were working..." I fought to stay calm and keep my voice from locking up.Leander pulled out a tablet with a record of Grassland's recent activity.A few entries jumped out at me. Someone had clearly been in close contact with the vampires."These dates... Caroline couldn't be the spy, could she?"I put the timeline together and worked most of it out."You're very sharp. That's why I intend to appoint someone else as Alpha in Steve's place. While I was looking into you, I learned who protected all of Grassland two years ago. It was you."I sat still. "When did you start investigating me?"He looked up. "After we first met. A stranger grabbed me and asked me to pose as her boyfri

Chapter 10 The next morning, my phone buzzed me awake.

Leander had sent a string of messages."Spies have been found around the Alpha's castle. Several neighboring packs have been attacked."I sat up quickly and turned on my computer.I was in the Western Territory pack, and it was all over the public channels.At four in the morning, three watch posts nearby were hit at once. Details of every internal patrol route had also been leaked.What chilled me even more was the set of forged commands the attackers had left at the scene.One look, and my fingers went stiff.They used my encryption.To be exact, they used my alias from two years ago, when I rebuilt Grassland's defenses.Someone had used that alias at the scene on purpose to pin the attacks on me.My phone buzzed again. A friend Steve and I had in common sent me a link. "Lavinia, what's going on?"Steve stood in front of a camera, drawn and tired, holding printed chat logs."Lavinia and I met five years ago. In the beginning, it really was a game of truth or dare."A reporter pressed

Chapter 11 It felt like a stone was pressing on my chest. I did not message him again.

If he did not believe me, explaining would change nothing. If he did, then I could not sit and wait for him to clean it up.I stayed at my computer and listed everything: when the forged commands first appeared, the permissions used to access them, and every recorded modification.At two in the morning, I found the first lead.Before the attack, someone used the Grassland Alpha's access to download the original files I had left two years earlier.The account belonged to Steve. That night, he was dealing with the collapse at the border.When morning came, I contacted the Gamma. "Who else can use that access?"Ten minutes later, he answered, "Besides the Alpha, only the Luna."I kept going through the records. Before the attack, a large number of silver weapons went missing from Grassland and ended up with the vampires.The person who approved the transfer was the new Luna, Caroline.So Caroline was not the devoted partner she pretended to be.She was the spy.I let out a breath and sat
