Jared POV
My steps falter as I hear Lily’s scream of agony. As I walk around the corner, I see Anya sitting there with a smug look on her face. Before I am willing to deal with her, I knock on Miranda’s door. I have decided how I am going to proceed with Anya. I won’t lose Lily.
Walking in, I see Rick sitting there with Miranda in his arms. “Jared, I can help,” Miranda says. “I have more powers than I have shared with you, and I have resources that can help,” she continues. “Miranda, we will always take whatever help you can give us when we need it,” I say. Moving closer to Rick I share with him what I am going to do with Anya. I don’t care what deals went on; she’s done. Seeing Rick’s smile, he nods and gives Miranda a quick kiss. She wants to come but she is not ready to leave the hospital yet. Waving to her, Rick and I leave th

Lily POV It has been two months since I saw Jared. I have not heard from him since I left, and I have been unable to reach Miranda to see what she knew about the situation. Kate and Colby were working with the Wolf Council but have had limited success to date. I have spent my days training. I promised myself I would be stronger and that has been my focus. I do regular training with the Pack as well as one on one with Kate. She’s seen a significant improvement. I have even had a chance to help fight some rogues off while I have stayed here. I have done it before but not to my full ability as I can now. But I realize I can’t stay here forever. I have been hiding from my past and future. I need to start li
Jared POV As Alpha Raymond drops her dead body to the floor, Rick, Alex, and I look on in stunned silence. Alpha Ryan simply looks on in amusement. As Alpha Raymond returns to the table to continue the meeting, we all slowly turn in our chairs from looking at Anya’s dead body. Don’t misunderstand; I am thrilled that she is gone. I simply don’t know what this means for Alpha Raymond given that the Wolf Council are here today and have witnessed the destruction of a she-wolf. “You took a big risk, Alpha Raymond,” Alpha Ryan states. “How do you figure?” Alpha Raymond asks. “Had we not agreed with your punishment for this female, you yourself could be on your way to jail,” Alpha Ryan says. “I have no regrets. She killed my mate. She deserved to die,” Raymond says. &nb
Lily POV I had heard from Jared once asking where I was. I didn’t respond to him. I had grown angry with him for letting me leave. I knew it wasn’t realistic. I had been the one to want to leave but I still felt betrayed that he had allowed me to go. I know it was for my own protection in his mind; I simply had unrealistic emotions around it. I had been home for a month now. I had already slipped back into my old life. Kate had gone back to Colby just last week. She had much to deal with, but she missed Colby and Amelie and needed to see them before she returned for the semi-annual ball. Colby and Amelie had returned with her last night so they would have time to prepare for attending the Summer Ball. The Summer Ball was taking place tonight. &n
Lily POV “It took you long enough to remember me,” I say to Jared in disgust. Being in his arms is tricking me. I want to hold onto my anger, but I am slowly falling into the trap of loving him. “I never forgot you, Lily. So much has happened that I want to share with you, but what I want most of all is to have you in my arms,” he says to me. “I want a do over of the night when we met six months ago,” he continues. “I should have grabbed a hold of you and never you let you go, Lily. I’m doing that now. I won’t take no for an answer and I sure as hell am not leaving here without you!” he says. Feeling a flit of butterflies in my stomach, this is the first time I have heard Jared talk with such confidence. Sure, he w
Lily POV Feeling Jared beneath my arm, I snuggle closer to him. I can’t believe it’s morning already. As I remember everything that happened last night, I can’t believe how different everything ended to what I expected. I smile as I remember Jared marking me and me marking him. They say being with your mate is amazing but being with your mate after you mark them is even more special. As I lay there dreamily thinking about everything, I jump up and squeal. I startle Jared as he jumps up thinking there is a threat in the room. I have a mark! What the hell am I doing? I should be looking at it. Jumping out of bed, I didn’t realize I had verbalized this as Jared laughed getting out of bed much slower than me and follows behind me.
Kate POV As I walked back to the Pack House, I go to the washroom to wash my hands and do a refresh before I head into our meeting. As I look up Colby comes up behind me putting his hands on my shoulders. “Are you okay?” he asks me. “Of course, why wouldn’t I be?” I ask a little harshly. “Well, it seems like you get rid of one threat, and another just pops up yet again. I just want to know my girl is alright,” he says turning me around to kiss my forehead. Sliding into his arms, “I am good, Colby. Please don’t question my authority again, though,” I say to him as I step back. “What do you mean?” he asks somewhat perplexed. “When Reid didn’t contact me, I want to know what’s going on. Please don’t stop them from contacting me again,” I ask. Chuckling Colby offers, “Kate, I wasn
Lily POV Jared and I had been driving for a few hours now. We were close to our Pack, only another hour and half and we’d be home. Last night’s supper was amazing. We had such a great time; my parents had a chance to get to know Jared a little better, and they were very happy with what they were seeing. Saying goodbye to everyone this morning was very difficult. But it wasn’t as hard as the first time I had left. The first time I had been on my own. This time, I am going home with my mate. We have two of Kate’s warriors following behind us to provide additional protection. They will be staying to help Rick and Alex run through some scenarios that Jared had learned of the day before while he had been talking with Colby, Reid, and John. &nbs
Jared POV It has been a week since Lily and I settled into our new life. Lily has made me proud. She has jumped into her new role as Luna for our Pack and our people love her. She’s kind and generous to everyone and always makes time when someone is in need. As I leave her in her office, I kiss her and wish her luck as I know she’s going for an interview later this morning for a teaching position. I am confident she will get the new position and I know she will be happy delving into her teaching role. As I settle into my office, I hear a knock on the door. I was expecting Rick, so I invite him in. He comes in and slumps down in the chair in front of me. “What has you down, man?” I ask. “Miranda is away again. I know she loves me, but I don’t know where she goes when she leaves.
