My cheeks burned as Leo explained the event.A pack gathering? The night of the full moon?This couldn’t be happening right now. I couldn’t attend a pack gathering during the full moon. I couldn’t attend any gatherings during the full moon.That was the one night of the month that I transformed into
The thought occurred to me, but I’m not sure how well I could pull it off.I suppose it couldn’t hurt to try.The following day, I remained in bed for most of the morning. Normally, I would be awake early so I could work on some paintings in my studio. But today, I was pretending to be incredibly si
Silver’s POVThe night of the full moon had finally arrived; I knew by midnight tonight my secret would be revealed to the entire pack.No. I couldn’t let that happen.I had to think quickly and escape just before all was revealed. They couldn’t see my transformation.I rummaged through my closet,
Midnight was only a couple of hours away; I didn’t have long before I needed to make my escape.“Champagne, Luna?” The server broke through my thoughts.I turned to see a man standing nearby with a tray of champagne. Elliot was already sipping on his and he was watching me, waiting for me to answer.
Silver’s POVI stared at Shirly as she continued to dazzle the room. Everybody practically fell to her feet from her charm, and I felt physically ill. Her eyes found Gavin’s and she smiled adoringly as she made her way over to us, Elliot on her heel.“Gavin, it’s lovely to see you again,” Shirly sai
While I was in the bathroom, I grabbed my cell phone from my purse and saw I had a missed text from Rebecca.Rebecca: Good luck tonight! Remember to breathe. You got this!I smiled through my tears at the thoughtfulness of my best friend. Rebecca wasn’t a part of this pack, so she didn’t come to the
Elliot’s POVJust as I asked the maid if she had seen Silver, I felt her presence nearby. My eyes shot in the direction of the bathrooms, and I saw Silver staring at me with wide eyes. Then, she turned to leave only to run into Shirly who was exiting the bathroom behind her.Silver froze momentarily
“Perhaps it has to do with Miss Shirly,” Gavin said, shrugging in response. “She didn’t seem too pleased that you were talking to her.”That thought crossed my mind as well and I’m still unsure of what was said while they were in the bathroom together. I didn’t bother entertaining the conversation a
“I love you, Mrs. Crown,” I said to her.“I love you, Alpha,” she said, with a wink.“Congratulations!” A voice said from nearby. I turned to see Silver’s friends coming to hug her. Cara, Alison, Emma, and Rebecca. Rebecca switched her allegiance to the Crown pack and now she works in my packhouse a
Silver’s POV“You shouldn’t be in here,” the mortician said as we walked into the cold room in the basement of the hospital. I had never been in a morgue before and I wasn’t sure what I was expecting. But it was dark and gloomy down here.“I need to see my husband,” I demanded.The mortician narrowe
Rebecca sat on the other side of my bed and wrapped her arms around me.“I was so worried about you,” she whispered. “Oh and get this… Stella was arrested for fraud!”I gasped and stared up at her.“What?”“She messed with the wrong painting,” Rebecca chuckled, shaking her head. “I might have put a
Silver’s POVI wasn’t out of it for long. My eyes immediately flew open, and I gasped as if I hadn’t been breathing this entire time. Whoever was sitting by my bedside was nearly thrown out of their seat and I heard a small squeal coming from her lips.“Get the doctor,” I heard another voice saying.
“So, what are you saying?” Elliot asked when my words failed me.“I want to give you the choice,” she told me. “You can stay here and live a wonderful afterlife with your family and start anew. You could have children here and live as immortals in my spirit world. You will be together and live as ma
Silver’s POV“How is this possible?”She smiled at me.“Well, we were sent to the Moon Goddess world when we died,” she explained. “I was only an infant. In this world, things are different. We can never die because we are already dead, but we can age if we want to. There are tons of places to go an

Silver’s POV“Silver, my child. Wake up…” I heard a soft and very familiar voice saying.I moved my head, expecting to feel some sort of pain, but I felt nothing. I felt at ease and even the ache in my chest was gone. When I opened my eyes, I was staring up at the night sky. I was lying on a bed of
“Silver!” It’s over!” Charlotte cried. “You did it! You defeated Scott; his spell had been lifted!”That seemed to have brought me back to the current moment; I stopped stabbing Scott, and I let out a cry that I had never heard myself make before. Charlotte wrapped her arms around me and pulled me a
