Her name was Blair. She'd moved to Grayridge two months ago and worked at the pack's fitness center. She had no idea who was sitting across from her.I practiced under my maiden name and wore a mask to help protect my clients' privacy. Lucas had always insisted we keep my role as Luna separate from the clinic. He said I did enough for the pack already without having everyone's relationship problems follow me home. I'd thought he was looking out for me. Now his mistress was sitting on the other side of my desk."Ms. Reed, name your price." Blair nudged the check closer. "I just need her to leave on her own. Lucas can't find out I had anything to do with it.""If he wants a different Luna, why doesn't he tell her himself?""He doesn't want to hurt their kid, and he doesn't want the elders giving him grief. They've been mated five years. She had his daughter." She shrugged, as though we were discussing an old car he couldn't quite bring himself to scrap. "He gets sentimental. That's his p

Lucas draped his workout jacket over me. As soon as I caught the scent on its collar, I pushed it back into his hands. He frowned. "You're shaking. We're going to the pack clinic.""My wolf's been worn out lately. I just need to go home and rest." I rubbed my temples and accepted the insulated cup he offered, taking one small sip.He immediately promised to leave the reports alone that evening and have dinner with Ruby and me."The alliance reception at Pinecrest is tomorrow night, isn't it?" I asked."I can cancel.""Don't. The families who've just joined us are expecting us there."The reception had been booked weeks ago. It was also the hotel where Blair had reserved their suite."All right." He squeezed my hand. "Just tell me if you start feeling worse."At home, he cleared my work schedule, told the kitchen to prepare roast trout, and cut up a pear for Ruby's lunch box himself. Our daughter leaned over the back of a chair and asked if he'd read her a story that night. He promised

Instead of locking my phone in a hurry, I pointed to Ruby's name in the message. "Summer camp in White Pine. You signed the travel consent form last month, remember?"His expression eased. "You're going, too?""She's four. I'd rather take her to Grandpa's myself.""A few days away will do you good." He squeezed my hand. "You've been running yourself ragged. Tell Gavin he doesn't need to make her a whole room full of wooden toys this time.""I'll tell him."Someone at the next table complimented him on making sure Ruby got time with her grandfather. Lucas squeezed my hand. "Nothing matters more than keeping Erin happy."After the reception, Lucas wrapped his arms around me from behind as we waited for the elevator. Blair's scent still clung to his skin beneath the hotel soap, and my wolf recoiled so sharply that pain tightened beneath my breastbone."Don't touch me." I caught his wrist and removed his arm from my waist.He released me at once. "Feeling sick again?""Take me home."The n

With three days left, Lucas went to Copper Creek. Blair sent me a photograph of them beside the hot-springs pool, followed by one of a crown glittering with crystals.[He bought it for me. You can't be the only one who gets to wear one forever.]I closed the photographs without replying. I had three days to get Ruby and myself ready.That morning, I arranged for my clinic to reopen in White Pine with the same staff. I secured my personal accounts and sent the pack's financial records to Grayridge's finance office.The following day, my friend Tara helped me take Ruby shopping for the trip. Ruby picked a blue backpack with bear ears and asked, very seriously, if she could pack two pairs of rain boots. Grandpa's creek was deep."Of course." I crouched to straighten her shoelaces. "When we get there, Mommy'll splash in the water with you."Tara drew me outside the shop and asked only one question. "Are you coming back?""I won't be Grayridge's Luna again."I'd already told Tara why I was

Lucas POVBy the time I reached Erin's clinic, the appointment sign had been taken off the door. Inside, there were no missing records or half-packed bags. The receptionist handed me the spare key and said Ms. Reed's new address was in White Pine. Her existing clients would continue to see the same team.She kept calling her Ms. Reed. Only hours earlier, Erin had still been my Luna.I ordered her to give me the address. She shook her head. "We don't disclose patients' or employees' private information to third parties. You'll need to contact her legal counsel."A third party was what I'd become. My wolf struck hard against my awareness, then retreated deep inside. I reached for Erin along the familiar mate bond and found nothing there. In five years, I'd never once considered that I might actually lose it.I called Owen through the pack mindlink and ordered him to pull every crossing record from the eastern checkpoint. Every post was to look for Erin. They weren't to let her go any far
