Kate POV
I kept thinking about lunch with Boyd. I was confused how I had slept when I never sleep. I wasn’t sure I wanted to go on another outing with him but had already committed and I wouldn’t go back on my word. Since we saw each other a few days ago, I haven’t heard from him.
This had been a busy week since I saw Boyd; we were going through so many different contracts that had been established some previously, some years prior. Some were good arrangements and for others it was time to update those agreements.
One in particular would be my first challenge. There had been rumours of one of our smaller ally’s having been conducting their business a little less than we would consider the norm. We treated our Omegas well; they were not seen as less than or belittle or abused.&n

Alpha Cory POV “Who the hell does she think she is coming in here with her demands?” I ask my Beta. “She doesn’t understand our arrangements with her father. Clearly, she isn’t aware of his business practices,” the Beta responds. Sitting and stewing for a moment, I ponder the situation. We didn’t have enough time to clean everything up, but we could have people working on things when she arrived tomorrow. We would also have appropriate Omegas for her to speak with; those who understood their place in the Pack. “Have we actually had a rogue attack in the past few years Beta?” I ask. “Cory, you know we haven’t. You know full well what happened when our mates died.&nb
Kate POV Getting into the cars, Reid, one of our warriors, Louise, and I in the first car and the remaining warriors in the second car. We head out quickly not wanting to linger on the premises any longer. We had a long drive ahead of us and we had a mystery to solve on top of that. Who the hell was Louise, what connection does she have to the Golden Moon Pack, and where did she come from? Looking at Louise, I started with some basic questions, “How long have you been at Harvest Moon Pack?”, I ask. “I have been there my whole life; I only had my mom and dad; when they died in a rogue attack a few years ago I was deemed an Omega and wasn’t allowed to finish school,” she says. I ponder this, again we always encour
Alpha Jackson POV I can’t believe this is happening. This girl remembers me from a visit years ago. I hadn’t known who she was, and I never officially met her. She would have been a teenager when I last visited the Pack. Yet she remembers me. She has a resemblance to Kate, but I wouldn’t say she could be a sister. I don’t see myself in this young lady. She’s beautiful but not as beautiful as my Kate is. Looking at Kate as the young woman hugs me, I stare at Kate confused. As Louise steps back, I smile and suggest she continue eating her meal. I know Kate will have even more questions, but I need a moment to collect myself. What the hell had Cory been playing at all these years? 
Kate POV Drake had said to dress up for the evening. I was looking forward to the break after the crazy week I had just wrapped up. Getting out of the shower, I blew my hair out letting it go wavy. I put a touch of make-up on and went to get dressed. I had decided to go with a backless black cocktail dress. I was able to go without a bra. I opted for a black lace thong tonight under my dress. Slipping on my black heels, I stand in front of the mirror just as Lily knocks before walking into my room. “Drake is a lucky man, Katie,” she says. Laughing, I thank her for the vote of confidence. I want to enjoy my evening and perhaps some after drinks back here would wrap out the evening nicely. &ldquo
Kate POV Rolling over, I run into a hard male body. Smiling I kiss the chest that belongs to that body, making my way up to slowly kiss Drake’s lips. He squeezes me into him, kissing me and holding me tighter. “Good morning,” I say; “It’s a great morning when I wake up next to you,” he says. Moving away from Drake, I roll over, “What do you have to do today?” I ask. “I need to head back to my Pack, we have some training this afternoon that I can’t miss,” he says. Do you want to get breakfast before you go?” I ask looking at the clock. It’s only 9:30 am, with a quick shower, we will make breakfast by 11 am. “A shower first sounds good,&
Kate POV As much as I knew what was happening, I was still caught off guard. I shouldn’t be but it stings seeing them together. I know what it means, I know I have to be strong once again, but it doesn’t make it any easier. Moving past the new couple, I head toward my office without acknowledging them. I just need to get to my office, close my door and throw myself into my work. As I sit down at my desk, I sip my coffee and pick away at the blueberry muffin I had grabbed. I had watched Drake and Louise when they left for a walk, so I had thought the coast would be clear. I saw Lily for a couple minutes when I went to the Dining Hall but wasn’t ready to talk about anything. What was there to talk about? Dra
Boyd POV Grunting, I reach my climax, having given the therapist three orgasms already. She was on the fence about changing her report, so I was giving her a little encouragement. Rafe had taken a step backward, but he was starting to move forward again. I had a message from Kate to call regarding the missing reports. I had wanted to call her sooner, but with that hiccup, I couldn’t without avoiding her questions on my nephew. Everything I have been doing for the past year has focused entirely on my nephew and his needs. I have spoken to my brother about getting someone else to look after him, but he doesn’t trust anyone else. Sighing I roll out of bed and head to the shower. I am tired of the human controlling
Drake POV Looking at Louise I had to be honest and recognize there was a pull toward her. I knew it was the mate bond and I didn’t trust it. I was conflicted with the feelings I had for Kate. I knew Kate wouldn’t accept me as her chosen mate now that I had a mate. Unless I convinced Louise to reject me. I sat and listened to Louise talking. She had a lot of questions and I guess I had to make a decision whether I would take her back to my place or leave her here for a bit longer. “Have you heard anything from Kate on the DNA test you took?” I ask her. “No, she said she hadn’t heard anything yet but that was yesterday,” she replied. “Well once you get those results, we’ll have to figure out what you are going to do,” I tell her.&nbs
Kate POV We caught an early flight out to get back to the Pack by early afternoon. I had a hairstylist and makeup artist waiting to do hair and makeup for my mom, me and of course Amelie wouldn’t be left out. We had a gorgeous dress picked out for Amelie – she will look like a princess. I haven’t seen my mom’s dress yet, but I know it will be appropriate for the occasion. While we were home, I had bought a new dress for the occasion. As is the case with ceremonies the Luna traditionally wears a long gown. I decided to go with white for the Luna ceremony. A white gown with a slit up my right leg to mid-thigh. There was gold trim on the dress around the waist and the neckline. The front was up to the neck while the back was open to the waist. And of course, I’d top it off with black h
Kate POV The alliance meeting had gone very well. Once Alpha Drew got past all the Boyd crap, and the fact that I was still going to be a co-Alpha to my Pack, he was on board. It sweetened the deal that we were joining our alliance with the larger alliance of Colby’s Pack. Everyone was quite excited about the opportunity this alliance would provide. It was agreed that every Pack in the alliance would meet with their own smaller Packs within their alliances to ensure they followed the rules of the Silver Crescent Pack. Failure to do so could result in either the smaller Pack member being removed from the alliance, or the Pack in the alliance of six could be removed. Needless to say, nobody wanted to be removed. Where this was a sh
Kate POV The morning came quickly. My mom has taken Amelie off on a girl’s trip for the day knowing that we would be swamped today with Pack business. As they head off, we wave to Amelie who is waving in the window. I can only imagine the things Amelie will come home with today to take back. We may need to get a separate plane to bring her things home. As I am just about to turn back into the Pack house, I hear a motorbike coming up the road. I pause for a moment; surprised Drake is so early. Then I realize in his shoes I’d probably be doing the same thing. I don’t want him taking over my meeting before I have it. I wait for him to run up the stairs uncertain what to do. Hugging does not feel c
Kate POV Waking in Colby’s arms every morning this past week in the place I would soon call home, was amazing. We had breakfast with Amelie daily before she went to school. I was on my way home, with Amelie and Colby, to try to wrap up some pressing details around the move I was making. And to bring home some additional things I wanted to have with me. I had conducted a lot of video chats with Beta Reid and Gamma John throughout the week. I would check in on the Pack activities and resolving some challenges daily with the three of us. We went over training plans for our warriors, and they kept me up to date on any issues with the border patrol. This week was a calm week. Both Reid and John were happy for me that I had decided to
Colby POV I was a little anxious thinking Kate had made a decision about the future. I know she was happy with Amelie, now that we had gotten everything straightened out. I was thankful to the Moon Goddess that I had got there in time to help her deal with the wolves. I have no doubt Kate would have fought them off, but not being able to shift would have made it that much harder. And because she had to deal with that situation as a result of my own Pack member, caused me immense guilt. I don’t know what I would have done if Kate had been seriously hurt or worse. If I could, I would kill Jessica again for what she did. As I sit in my room, I can hear the giggles from Kate and Amelie from down the hall. Deciding to head
Colby POV As I’m sitting there with my parents Amelie comes running in the door, tears on her face and so winded and upset she can’t get her words out. Wondering where Kate is, I try to get her to calm down, and help her breathe. She must have run quite a distance and been frightened to be reacting this way. As she starts to calm down, she puts her head in my neck saying she’s sorry. I’m so confused I don’t know what to make of it. I take her arms in my hands and gently pull her out of my neck. “Amelie, what are you sorry for?” I ask. With tears streaming down her face, I wipe her cheeks. “I took Kate in the woods,”; “Okay where is Kate now?” I ask. “She’s in the woods,” she replies. “Is she hurt
Kate’s POV Shocked I feel like I got kicked in the gut. Why would she even think about Jessica? I thought her and Colby were a passing fling. I didn’t realize Jessica had been part of Colby’s life and in turn Amelie’s life. Looking at Colby, he shakes his head, not clear what is happening. As Colby’s parents hear this, they move forward to welcome me, with both his mother and father hugging me in acceptance. As Colby stands there in discomfort, I start to look away from him. I’m not clear what I walked into, but this was not what I expected the first time I met his family. Colby puts Amelie down and she runs off just in time for me to see Jessica smirking before anyone else saw her. Reaching her hand down to Amelie, she takes her along to play, I assume.
Kate POV “Promise me you will call me, if you need something, Reid?” I ask for the hundredth time. “Yes Kate, we will be fine for a few days without you,” he says. “And we’ll video chat every day?” I ask. “Yes Kate, same time every day, we’ll video chat,” he says a little too condescending for my liking, but I let it go. I’m incredibly panicked. This is the first time I’ve left my Pack for any amount of time that wasn’t related to a crisis of some sort. I’m going home with Colby. I can’t wait to see his Pack, meet his family, and especially meet Amelie. I have some gifts for her, that Colby helped me pick out. A purple elephant – she collects elephants, and she loves the color purple.
Colby POV It had been three weeks, and nothing had changed. I had to get back to my Pack, but I didn’t want to leave Kate. I knew from her doctor they were just waiting for her to come out of the coma. The mood around her Pack had been somber. Everyone was waiting. What everyone didn’t know yet was that Kate’s leg had some damage that had not repaired itself yet. It had to be reset when she finally made it to the Pack hospital. The doctor was hopeful her wolf will be able to heal it once they both come out of the coma, but it was hard to say what would happen. I knew if Kate lost the ability to shift, she would be devastated. But for me, her being alive is the only thing that matters. As
