Chapter 1

I slid the leave request across the desk to Silas. He barely glanced at it before scribbling his signature at the bottom and going back to getting ready.It was still half an hour before nine.Nothing mattered more than their nightly talks.I stared at the document for a long time.I hadn't expected it to be this easy.By the time I tucked the signed papers into my bag, Silas was coming out of the bathroom.He noticed what I was doing and paused."It's just a document. You really had to bring it here yourself?"I blinked, then shook my head."No."He frowned and checked his watch."It's almost nine. Anything else you need to tell me?"I hesitated for two seconds, then shook my head."No. Nothing."He nodded, stepped closer, and pressed a kiss to my forehead."All right, my little moon. Goodnight."Then he got up and headed to the study.Ten minutes later, I opened the study door.He was leaning back on the couch, eyes closed, a sweet smile on his face—he hadn't even noticed I'd walked

I was just about to head home when Silas's office messaged me, reminding me there were some joint property documents that needed my signature.When I reached Silas's office door, I saw Leah having lunch with him.She stood up to grab a napkin, and her fingertips brushed the edge of the wolf mark on the back of his neck.Silas went still for a moment.But now he just frowned slightly, then didn't pull away. He let her touch him.Leah's voice was soft and warm:"How's it going? Tired today?"Silas nodded."It's fine."I stood in the doorway, thinking the whole scene was ridiculous.Inside the office, Silas casually reached out and wiped a crumb from the corner of Leah's mouth with a tissue, his voice low."Did you sleep well last night? Still having insomnia?""Really well," Leah smiled. "You know it. As long as you talk to me, I sleep like a baby."Then she seemed to remember something, and her face fell a little."But I heard you don't let anyone contact you after nine. I've been wonde

The car was moving along the street when a howl suddenly cut through the air nearby.In an instant, five dark SUVs surrounded us, ramming into our car again and again.We were all in the back seat.Leah was pressed against Silas. I sat across from him.I gripped my seatbelt and looked at Silas."Ivy!"Silas started unbuckling his seatbelt, coming toward me.The driver spoke up."Alpha Silas, it's too dangerous to unbuckle right now."Another impact shook the car.Silas ignored him.He lunged over, one hand on my shoulder, his other arm braced across my front, pinning me into the seat.He held me tight, his body heat bleeding through his clothes, and said low:"Don't be scared, Ivy. It's okay."I clutched the fabric at his chest:"I'm scared. Our—"I was about to tell him about the baby when Leah screamed.A rogue wolf smashed through the window on Leah's side.Glass shards flew in.The wolf's claws caught Leah's hair and yanked.Her head was dragged toward the window.Silas's head snap

The healer said the bleeding was because the baby couldn't sense his father's scent. He'd been frightened by Silas in his rage.The healer said:"You have to be careful, Ivy. This baby needs Alpha Silas to sense him, to protect him. Have you told Silas you're pregnant?"I didn't say anything.When I got home, I packed my suitcase.Five years of marriage, and my things couldn't even fill one suitcase.Before I left, I set the statue Silas gave me, the one carved with two little wolves, on the table.I was just about to go when Silas came in from outside.He saw me and paused."Daniel said you went to the hospital."I nodded."What's wrong?"He asked.I shook my head."Just some routine checks.""Routine checks still need attention." He took off his coat. "I'll have the private healer come see you tomorrow."I shook my head."No need.""You're my mate, Ivy. Don't say things like that."He turned and pulled me into his arms. His scent drifted over me, warm cedar wrapping around me, and I

Chapter 5

Silas's POVSilas's chest tightened, his heart feeling like something had grabbed hold of it."What's wrong?"Leah's voice came from beside the bed."Nothing."He answered, his voice steady.But his chest still hurt, a huge tearing pain spreading through it.He raised a hand and pressed his temples as a wave of dizziness washed over him."I'm scared... I can't sleep."Silas endured the discomfort, got up, sat on the edge of the bed, and took her hand."I'm here."Leah was silent for a moment.Then she lifted the covers, revealing the curve of her waist and the outline of her thighs."Thank you, Silas." Her voice dropped lower. "Thank you for always being by my side."Her warmth seeped through the thin pajamas, carrying a faint shampoo scent.Silas frowned. That dizziness washed over him again.In those few seconds, the pain in his chest suddenly emptied out.All the pain in his body, in his mind, vanished, leaving behind an abnormal stillness.On the other end of his spirit, the presen

Chapter 6

Silas's POVSilas's office was dead silent.The pack members sat together, no one daring to look up at him.The promotional brochure for the Westmoor Valley estate sat on Silas's desk, two plane tickets pinned beneath it.Silas sat there without a word, his expression blank.He held the leave request in his hand.He'd lost count of how many times he'd read it.He'd confirmed it more times than he could count. That was definitely his signature.But he had absolutely no memory of signing it.Silas stared at the signature, motionless.The door creaked open.Leah walked in carrying a lunchbox.She set it beside his hand."You haven't eaten breakfast," her voice was soft and proper. "It's all your favorites."Silas looked down at the lunchbox.Moroccan lamb stew, and cheese ham.Every dish was something Leah thought he liked.But he didn't actually like a single one of them.What he loved was Ivy's beef stew.He didn't like the taste of spices, so before turning off the heat, Ivy would add

The Westmoor Pack accepted me quickly, because my grandmother had once been the Luna of the Westmoor Pack.She had remarkable healing gifts, and the pack members all respected her deeply.Here, they didn't call me Luna. They called me Ivy.During the day, I arranged flowers at the flower shop, sat outside with my coffee, and watched customers browse.The wolves of the Westmoor Pack never asked where I'd come from. Every now and then, they'd buy a bouquet.The days passed peacefully.Every day I arranged flowers and drank coffee.Lately, my belly had been growing day by day, but no one asked questions.The Westmoor Pack didn't ask about my past, and I didn't bring it up.After I posted my last update, I deleted everyone connected to Silas.I thought I'd never see him again.At least, I didn't want to.That evening, on my way home, I caught a familiar scent of tobacco and coffee beans, and then I saw a lonely figure standing under the dim streetlight.My steps halted.Silas saw me, his f

Chapter 8

When I arrived, Silas was still lying in the hospital bed, his eyes tightly shut.His face was pale.Five years together, and I had never seen him like this.The healer said a group of rogues had attacked the Blackwood Pack. They had silver bullets. Silas took a shot protecting the others.And the extreme cold had made him seriously ill.I was about to leave when the man behind me suddenly opened his eyes.His voice was hoarse and rough."Ivy..."I stopped.I turned around and met his gaze.Calm, with something broken underneath."Do you hate me that much?"Silas had dark circles under his eyes. I supposed the fever had something to do with it."For the past ten years, I've always thought I was a decent Alpha, and that you were my best mate, because you never said anything. You were just there."I looked back at him, expressionless.He went on."After I became Alpha, I learned to hide all my weakness, but it was driving me insane, because even now, even with you gone, with me completel
