“Everly?” I moan, sitting up and rubbing at the side of my throbbing head. “Slowly, you hit your head pretty hard.”

“Is she okay?”

“Luna, are you leaving for real?”

“Shh. She just woke up. Don’t make her mad.”

I blink my eyes a little, confused at what I was seeing in front of me. I was in Killian and I’s old room, laying on top of the made bed with Sebastain and six children I had funded standing around me. Why were the kids here? I don’t want to get too full of myself and say I’m close to them, but I make a special effort to take children like these under my wing.

“How are you feeling?” I jump a little at Sebastain’s hand touching me on the lower back as I sit up a little more. I’m not quite ready to get all cozied up to him, so I feel myself scooting away a little.

Before I even answer him, a panicked thought shoots through my head.

I hope my baby is okay.

My hands instinctively reach for my belly, like I’ll be able to somehow tell if it’s okay that way.

“Don’t worry. It’s f

    Killian's POVI had tried everything to get the smell of Everly out of the room we once shared. But I swear, even though the bedsheets were brand new, they still smelled like lilacs, same as she once did.I lean on the railing of the balcony May had insisted we add to the bedroom, watching the sun setting in the sky as I drink whiskey from a flask I’d taken to carrying around with me. I imagine the nagging Everly would have given me if she saw how much I was drinking these days. But I couldn’t help it. The whiskey was turning into the only way to quell the everpresent irritation that had been lingering in my gut since my wife had left me. I scoff a little when I think about how quickly Everly had given our lives up together. I mean, all those years of making it clear the only thing she cared about was moving up in the world, and she runs the second things get rocky? She gave up everything, her home and pack, all the nice things we’d worked so hard to obtain. For the longest time, s

    Killian's POVTwo Years later… “We’re going to have to stop giving lessons to young wolves. We don’t have enough pack members to spare anymore, and we could honestly use their help anyways. There are things they can be doing aside from learning how to do algebra.” I command. “I see.” I shoot my eyes up at Lucas, who is standing on the other side of my desk with a blank expression on his face. Though his face was smooth, I knew Lucas well. What I had just said might have broken the last bit of respect for me he had. “Just do it.” I growl, turning around in my chair to get away from his judgement-filled eyes. He doesn’t say anything else, I just hear him walking away and the door to my office closing behind him. I sigh heavily, and lean forward in my chair to hang my head. To say I had let my pack slip away from me, was an understatement. For the first six months after Everly left me, I was a wreck. I drank a minimum of two bottles of whiskey every day, and that number in

    Everly's POV“How long has she been feeling unwell?” “Since the last full moon.” I nod a little, running a hand across the hot forehead of the young wolf in front of me. “Has she met her mate yet?” I flick my eyes up to the mom, who shakes her head viciously. “No, she would tell me about that.” “Right.” My eyes float down to the fourteen year girl old curled up in the doctor's waiting room. She had come in a couple hours ago, but because she was only complaining of mild discomfort and stomach pain, she wasn't made a priority. I was waiting for the doctor to bring Eli and Ella back from getting their shots, so I figured I would see if there was anything I could do for this uncomfortable girl. She’s currently staring at me, a message clear in her eyes. I raise a brow at her, and press my lips together. “She’s fine. You can take her home, but you two need to have a conversation about why you won’t let her be with whoever her mate is.” The mother gasps, and the daughter quickly jump

    “Come, sit by me.” I nod a little and sit in the chair next to Sebastain. We were three seats down from the committee leader, who sat in the middle of a long table at the front of Sebastain’s meeting hall. It was the largest in the area, and Sebastain was on the committee, so they often used his space as their own. It meant he had a hand in a lot of things, despite the struggles of constantly having to accommodate powerful guests. “Who are those people?” I whisper to Sebastain, pointing to the couple who was already seated on the opposite side of the committee head. They were very serious looking, both were calculating dark eyes that scanned the room constantly. They were older than us, by at least thirty years, but both still looked strong and probably more able bodied than us. I tense a little when he leans closer to me, bringing his minty scent with him. I can feel the heat coming off his body as he leans one of his arms on my chair's armrest. “They’re Alpha and Luna to the C

    “I don’t understand why I have to be the one to do this.” I’m stomping down the path towards my house currently, Sebastian in tow. He’s being quiet, just kind of letting me complain. “I left that pack for a reason, to get away from him.” I turn around then, staring at Sebastian. “Why would anyone think this is a good idea? I mean, he very publicly humiliated me. What if I just teach him all the wrong things to do so he’ll mess up his pack more because I want revenge?” “Won’t it feel good though, getting to see all the ways he’s screwing up? You’ll basically be in charge of him for his time here. With his Alpha status hanging on such a thin sheet of ice, anything you say about him will be taken seriously.” “What does that mean?” I ask, crossing my arms and eyeing Sebastain suspiciously. He shrugs a little. “It doesn’t mean anything. I’m just saying if he’s legitimately a bad Alpha and can’t be saved, you need to say something. Otherwise the remaining members of his pack are doome

    “I guess let’s start with the basics. How much actual money do you have each month as of now to provide for your pack?” I was currently in one of the classrooms this pack used for teaching young wolves. Sebastian had gotten me at nine o’clock like he promised and led me here, telling me to let him know if Killian bothered me in any way. I had rolled my eyes, but agreed. Killian bothered me just by being here. I still wasn’t over how completely he had betrayed me. We were sitting at a circle table, across from each, in chairs that were just a little too small. Especially for Killian. If this wasn’t such an awkward conversation to be having with an ex, I might laugh a little at how much he didn’t fit into the child sized chairs. “That’s not important.” He says, shaking his head. I sigh a little. I was worried this is how this would go. “Okay, but making sure your pack is making enough money to support itself, is very important, isn’t it?” He shrugs a little, like an angry little

    “I don’t understand.” Killian says as Ella plays with his cheeks in her small hands. She never responded this well to Sebastain, not to anyone but Alice or me. It was like she knew this man was her father. “I thought these were Sebastain’s children.” His eyes meet mine, and I furrow my brow. “Killian, I was pregnant before I even knew Sebastain was still interested in me. I found out I was pregnant on our anniversary, on the same day you brought May home with you.” His face falls a little then, and I wonder if he’s finally ready to take some responsibility for what happened. Because the reality is, if he’d never brought May home, there would never have been a reason for me to leave. I would’ve welcomed him home and told him the news, and we would’ve started our journey together to be parents. “Would you two like to have some tea?” I look to where Alice has come back out of the house. Her eyes are fixed on Killian, and it makes me feel a little prickly. I could practically smell h

    The next few days pass by fairly smoothly. Killian listens to what I have to say, he doesn’t argue with me or say anything mean. He asks me thoughtful questions about how to better run his pack, and seems to cling onto every word that comes from me. On the fourth day, we’re sitting in the classroom like always, when Sebastain suddenly comes barging in. “How are things going in here?” He asks, walking behind me and touching a strand of my hair possibly as he does. I narrow my eyes at him over my shoulder a little, but don’t say anything about his action. “I think Killian has learned a lot.” I settled on. Killian’s eyes are watching Sebastain’s movements behind me, and it gets harder and harder to ignore the growing tension in the room. “Uhm… we were just discussing the best pay to teach young wolves…” I mutter, trying to break the silence a little. “Do you have any suggestions?” I ask Sebastain. He hums, and rubs his chin a little. “It’s important for young wolves to have good

    “Killian?! Wake up!” I’m hovering over Killian now, gently holding either side of his face. There’s blood all over, his nose is definitely broken, and his eyes are swollen shut. Serena still hasn’t shut up about what a monster I am in the background, even though Sebastain had already been dragged off by a couple of his pack members. I wish she would’ve gone with him, because she was only adding to the chaos. A couple committee members were holding her back by the arms as she yelled at me what a manipulative piece of shit I was, and that if her son died, I was the reason. Adam was one of the guys holding her, and I could tell by the look on his face, he had no idea what to do right now.“Please.” I lean down to Killian’s ear, kissing it softly. My heart races in my chest when I hear him groan, and his head rolls to the side a little. That was proof, he was alive, and that’s all I needed right now.“Luna, we must help him.” I look up to the voice talking to me, my eyes wide and franti

    “Ladies and Gentlemen!” I blink a little, trying to pull myself out of the whirlwind of thoughts going on inside my mind right now as Serena starts speaking to the gathered packs. “Today, we are witnessing the challenge of two Alphas-”I hear a voice clearing, and look up to Felix, who is standing in between Killian and Sebastain. Serena sighs, and rolls her eyes. “Two Alphas and a… him.” She waves her hand dismissively at Felix, but he just grins that evil smile of his and waves at the crowd. “For the right to rule over all attending packs.” I notice she left out the real reason this challenge was even happening, to see who would have me as their Luna. She was one of the ones I’d heard him talking shit about me to, so I don’t know why she even cared. She already knew how he really felt, right? I look up then at Sebastian, who is already looking at me. His dark gaze stares into mine, and I swallow thickly. He’s mouthing something at me, something I can’t quite make out. I tilt my h

    “You’ll be over here, so you can see.” I nod at the pack member who led me through the crowd of buzzing people, all gathered to watch the challenge ceremony that was set to start in thirty minutes. All the normal pack members were standing in a loose circle in the middle of Sebastain’s pack lands, while myself, Camilla, and the committee members sat at the front in chairs they’d placed for us. Camilla and I were the only ones actually sitting, side by side now. The rest of the committee members were standing off to the side a little, talking amongst themselves.“How was your night?” I ask her as we both watch the pack members interacting, all of them excited for the fast approaching fight. I could practically feel the energy buzzing in the air. I glance at her, and notice her chewing on her lip a little, instead of grinning ear to ear like I thought she would be.“What’s wrong? What happened?” I ask. I had been expecting her to immediately start gushing about hooking up with Lucas,

    I walk back to Sebastain’s place, my arms crossed and my mind whirring with thoughts of what I had just done. I definitely should not have just hooked up with Killian. But it’s like I couldn’t help myself. Hearing Sebastain call me simple, laugh at me with his mom and dumb committee members like I was some immature little girl, it just made me so mad. I wanted to get back at him, and even though I didn’t plan on running to him and rubbing it in his face, I still felt a weird sense of satisfaction from what I’d just done. I walk in the front door, heading upstairs to my room, rather than heading back to the party still going on in the backyard. I hadn’t really been in the party mood before, and I definitely wasn't now. I sigh, and walk to my bed, collapsing onto it with a heavy sigh. These past couple days have been draining as hell. My body and my mind are tired of working overtime, and I can feel it really sinking in as I lay there in the quiet dark of my room.I wish everything

    Nothing had ever felt as right as holding Everly in my arms at that moment. Feeling her hot breath on my neck as I grinded my length into her, her fingers clutching at my shoulders as she gasped and moaned my name. I hadn’t gotten to be with her like this in way too long, and while it hadn’t been the thing I missed the most about her, I can't lie and say I didn’t crave this a little. “Fuck I missed you.” I groan into her ear as I grab her tightly under the ass, her back hitting the tree I had her pinned against with every thrust inside of her. “You smell so good…” I mutter as I bury my face in her collarbone and kiss her warm, soft skin. My mind was blank, thinking only of how good it felt to be buried inside her again, her wetness leaking out onto me with every motion. I could feel her thighs clenching, the heat of her body radiating off her. Why did I ever give this up? Why did I ever think May was better than her? “Killian… I’m going to…” she gasps, her grip on me tightening eve

    I walked quickly through the pack grounds, towards where I knew Sebastain and the other committee members were probably drinking whiskey worth more than my left kidney. No way they would be caught drinking cans of seltzer with lowly common pack members. Sure enough, the lights were on in the guest house Adam was staying in, and laughter was spilling out of the slightly cracked windows. I guess since Adam was the head of the committee, they always came to his house. I walk onto the porch about to enter, but stop with my hand on the knob when I hear Serena saying my name. “There’s no way Everly has it in her to run a pack of this size efficiently. I don’t know why you keep entertaining this.” She says in a snotty tone. I can feel irritation rising in my chest, but think to myself, Sebastian will stand up for me. He won’t let his mother talk about me like that when I’m not even in the room to defend myself. “Just because she’s a little simple doesn’t mean she won’t do a fine job.” I

    As it turned out, the packs were actually pretty good at getting along. I suspect it had something to do with the ridiculous amount of alcohol that was being consumed by every single person here tonight.Both Killian and Sebastain had brought home giant sized deer for us to cook that night, so we ended up making a bonfire thirty or so feet away from Sebastain’s house. The deer had been skinned and sliced, and now you could grab a piece, a skewer, and roast your meat over the fire. When everyone had first shown up, things had been very tense. It was kind of like a middle school prom, where the boys sit on one side and the girls sit on the other. Except the split was between the two groups of wolves. Ashton had actually been the one to break the tension a little, and I had a mental note to send him a bottle of whiskey or something after, because without him, I’m not sure what would’ve happened. Him and his group of ducklings had shown up a bit later than everyone else, but only beca

    That night, we decide to have a party with both Sebastian and Killians pack. I had gone over to the house the committee members were staying in with Sebastain to discuss Felix’s challenge. They were are understandably shocked, and a little confused as to why Sebastain even accepted the challenge. They talked for way too long about it, but in the end, Sebastian said he couldn’t back out now even if he wanted to. The challenge had been laid out, and he had accepted of his own free will. The only way out was submission or victory. I again found myself worrying about who Felix really was as the committee members expressed their concern over Sebastain fighting him. Where did this guy come from? Why did he get kicked out his pack? Why did Serena and all the other committee members seem so apprehensive about Sebastain going up against him? What did they know that I didn’t? Lucas and Camilla had been the ones to suggest it (wonder why) and at first I’d been kind of against it. It had seemed

    “We’ll need to move the ceremony outside, with the rogues joining in now there won’t be enough room outside.” I tell one of Sebastain’s pack members as I walk to the meeting hall with them at my side. They nod, and break away from me to hurry off with their new instructions. I don’t know how his pack had learned about the new challenger so quickly, considering it'd happened all of an hour ago. But as soon as I’d walked out of Sebastain’s house, the guards had immediately approached me, asking if it was true that Sebastain had been challenged by the rogue King. Then when I had started walking to the meeting hall to see if any of the committee members were lingering around, one of the event organizing pack members had approached, asking if the space we had planned to use for the ceremony would still work. They were who I was talking and walking with now.I hadn’t been able to find Sebastain again, I’m assuming he’d probably turned into a wolf and was tearing through his land somewhere,
