Lily POV
Holding my head, I am screaming in pain. Jared is yelling for the medical staff; Doctor Kent comes running into the room. “What is it, Lily? What’s happening?” he asks. “So much pressure, like my head is going to explode,” I say. I can barely catch my breath from the pain coming from my head.
As Kent examines me, he first administers a pain killer to numb the pain. It takes some of the pressure I feel off me, but the pain is still there. Breathing a bit easier, I feel sweat dripping down my head. Jared grabs a cloth to wipe my face, as Kent considers the possibilities.
“I’m concerned that we may need to go back in and relieve some pressure on your brain, Lily,” he tells us. “No, I don’t want to sleep for a

Lily POV “Jared, you are scaring me. What did you mean, I worried for nothing?” I ask. As Jared was about to respond Kent came in looking at us both expectantly. Jared started, “she doesn’t remember she was worried,” he says. I don’t remember, what does that mean? Did something happen in the latest surgery? I remember surgery, I don’t remember anything else. “Did everything go well with the surgery Kent? Did something go wrong?” I ask in fear. “No, no Lily,” Kent starts to assure me as he pushes me back down to lay on the bed. I had not realized I had pushed forward when he came in. “One of the blockages involved an area of your brain that affects short term memory. There is no indication you will have any issues aside from some short-lived side effects,” he says. &nbs
Lily POV Hugging Jared tight, I still desperately need a shower. As I step back, I start removing my clothes. I had lost a few pounds in the hospital this past week, and I was feeling a little less sexy as a result. The look on Jared’s face assured me I was still sexy. I giggled as I removed my bra and he reaches to touch my breasts. Stepping back, I tease, “Not so fast mister, I want to see all of you.”. Not needing anymore encouragement, Jared removes his clothes off faster than I could remove mine. Kicking our clothes out of the way, Jared moves forward toward me pulling me into his arms, “I was so scared for you Lily,” he admits quietly. Hugging him tighter, “I’m on the mend now Jared,” I say. “I know you are Lily; I know. I just want all your memories back, so you
Jared POV Having just gotten off the phone with Alpha Kate, she confirmed she would be attending Lily’s Luna ceremony with Colby. She also confirmed Miranda, the witch, was on her way. When she arrived, she would literally pop in; meaning she would come in an untraditional manner. We could expect her in the next couple days. With that off my mind, I decided it was time to go check on Lily. I had only been away from her for a short period of time, but I was already missing her immensely. As I shut my office door and turned to leave, I ran into my mother once again. She had been after me to be able to see Lily. For someone who did not like the idea of her in the first place, she certainly seemed to have changed her mind now.&
Lily POV It’s been a few days since we had seen Jared’s mom. His dad had reached out to him as well trying to talk but Jared refused to talk to either of them. I didn’t want to come between him and his parents, but he assured me I was not. They had gone too far, and he didn’t know what to believe about them anymore. Jared had been acting funny the past week, it seemed every time I entered a room whomever he was talking to he would stop talking. I didn’t know what was going on, but I felt like he was working on some kind of surprise for me. I was not sure what it could be but I do love a surprise so I was getting excited trying to imagine what it could be. Jared and I continued to get closer, which has been amazing. I still can
Lily POV As Jared and I were just getting ready to eat, Rick and Miranda come back into the room. Rick has his arm around Miranda’s waist as Miranda looks like she would rather be anywhere else. As Rick helps Miranda to sit beside him, I smirk over at her. She always thought the mating of wolves was not something she would entertain. She felt women should be able to choose. That her mate is a wolf is serendipitous. As Rick sits down, he helps Miranda get some of the delicious food prepared and then serves himself. As they are ready to eat, Rick looks up and looks at Jared, Alex, and me staring at the pair. He is beaming as he says, “She’s my mate. Now you guys just have to help me convince her to give me a chance,” he says. You can tell Rick is already smitten. &
Miranda POV After finishing an early supper, I went to my room. I needed some time alone away from everyone to process what the Moon Goddess had done. Giving me a wolf for a mate was rarely heard of. How could this even work? I had no idea. I was here to figure out who was trying to hurt Lily. I had picked up on a couple subtle things while out for our walk. I would share that information with them all early tomorrow morning. Rick had told me about the surprise ceremony for Lily in a couple days so we had to do things early tomorrow as Lily had some visitors who would be joining her later in the morning and then later again Kate would be here. I was looking forward to seeing Kate again. It was hard to believe it had been only a couple years since we last saw each other yet so much had happened
Miranda POV After an amazing night and slow start to our morning, Rick and I have joined Lily and Jared in the meeting room along with Alex. It was time to give them my preliminary thoughts on what I had learned so far. As everyone took their seats I started. “So, the first thing I realize is many people love Lily already in the Pack,” I say. Seeing Jared look at Lily pleased, he turns back to me. “There are a handful who are indifferent and some who had a connection to the other woman who was going to be Luna before Lily,” I say. Nodding Jared acknowledges a few of the wolves who had got along with Anya but not many. Those indifferent could always be indifferent but he’d keep an eye on them as well. He wouldn’t have anyone upsetting or harming Lily.&nb
Lily POV I was bursting with excitement as I watched the cars roll up. My brother is Alpha to the Golden Moon Pack, along with Kate who shares the title with him. For this reason, he always travels with warriors for protection. The Golden Moon Pack is among the second largest Packs in our region. I can see my mom waving to me from the car and as soon as the car stops, she jumps out of the car running up the stairs. She takes me in her arms, “Oh my baby girl, I have missed you,” she murmurs with tears in her eyes. “I’ve missed you too, mom,” I reply hugging her tightly. “How are you feeling?” she asks through her tears. “Mom, we can discuss all that in a bit,” I say as I see my dad impatiently waiting to give me a hug.
