Loretta's POVAt 25 weeks pregnant, I caught my mate with another woman at the hospital.A sweet, pretty young woman stood beside Zane Sterling, who wore a black coat.She had on a white fox-fur coat and a soft wool scarf. Her cheeks were rosy, and her delicate features made her look like a doll.Alpha Zane leaned down to say something to her. I had never seen him look so gentle.I clutched my prenatal report. The winter wind cut across my cheeks, but the pain in my heart was colder.Their scents still hung in the air. Hers was sweet gardenia. His was strong cedar and cold iron.The two scents were tangled together.The woman noticed me and gave me a puzzled look.I couldn't hear what she said to Zane, but I read the words on her lips."Old woman."I laughed bitterly to myself.I'm only 24.I had always been a little heavy and plain. Now I was bundled in a black puffer coat and a black knit hat. Pregnancy had left me swollen, clumsy, and exhausted. I really could have passed for a wom

Loretta's POVI released a faint trace of the authority that belonged to the pack's Luna. Susie froze."If you forget your place again, I won't mind telling Margaret exactly how you've been 'taking care' of me."I'm leaving the Razor Pack soon anyway. Why should I keep putting up with these people?Susie's face went pale. She snapped, "The Alpha is waiting for you in the dining room."When I entered, Zane looked up at me.I knew exactly how I looked. My plain white shirt stretched awkwardly over my swollen, misshapen body. My face was puffy and blotchy, and my eyes had nearly disappeared into the flesh around them.Open disgust filled his face.I gave myself a bitter smile and silently took the seat farthest from him.Zane spoke with the cold, scolding tone of a man used to giving orders. "You're pregnant, not paralyzed. Stop expecting everyone to accommodate you."I stirred the thick soup in my bowl. The needle mark from yesterday's IV was still visible on the back of my hand."If th

Loretta's POVI fought down the emotions surging inside me and turned toward the door.As I left the office, I heard the girl soothing him in her gentle voice. Zane calmed down almost at once.I lifted my chin and forced back the tears gathering in my eyes.I went to an empty stairwell and braced one hand on the railing.The ripping pain from the mating bond finally shattered my control.Tears streamed down my face.Maybe Zane and I weren't true mates, but I had loved him for 8 years.We had stood before the Moon Goddess's altar, made our vows, and become mates.Giving him up now felt like carving flesh from my own bones.But I'll be okay. Everything will get better. I'll forget him completely.I didn't know how much time passed.When I finally calmed down, I went back upstairs. The girl was walking toward me.She looked perfect from head to toe, like someone who had been cherished her entire life.Zane's Beta, Craig Neal, escorted her personally.She approached me with a smile. "Ever

Third-Person POVAt the same time, a Bentley rolled through Southridge Estates in the southern suburbs.The villa community was more than 20 years old, and its infrastructure had begun to show its age.The car stopped outside Villa 12, the home the Silvermoon Pack had sold.The window lowered, revealing a flawless, handsome profile.Ezra Garcia looked toward the brightly lit villa. Warm yellow light from a streetlamp fell across his eyes, but it couldn't hide his loneliness or the complicated emotions inside them.He looked away and lit a cigarette.His phone vibrated.Ezra picked it up and spoke gently. "What is it, Pandora?"Pandora's playful complaint came through the phone. "When are you getting here? I'm starving, and Zane won't even let me start without you."Then Zane's deep, indulgent voice sounded in the background."Who asked me to remind her to watch what she eats? Now this is my fault?"Pandora huffed."If you're hungry, go ahead and eat," Ezra said. "I'm almost there."Af
