While I waited for Blythe to come back, I continued to fiddle and feel anxious about everything. I know she'll be talking to them about the things we talked about, and I am not sure if I am even ready to hear their answers or not.

And as much as I hate to admit it, I actually worry about what her brother might have to say when he hears about my request. Even without thinking deliberately, I have an uncanny sense that he'll boot me out of their house this instant.

And why wouldn't he? From the onset, he doesn't seem to like me, but maybe because of his profession, he is inclined to provide help to an almost-dead woman like me. And I'm not only imagining what could be the worst-case scenario at this point; I'm also attempting to get myself geared up to deal with what's to come next for me once I leave their place.

Other than that, I cannot hold it against them, specifically Blaze, if they refuse to help me further by letting me stay; after all, I am the one who keeps escaping them. They

    Blaze has absolutely no plan to keep the woman in front of him on his territory. He did, however, assure his sister that he would have a conversation with their unlikely visitor and make a decision based on her responses. But in spite of what he had stated he would do, he had already made up his mind. She needs to leave, but before that, she needs to tell him everything she has been hiding from them."What happened, princess? Isn't it a surprise that you are capable of speaking now? So you suddenly were able to talk to my dear sister after playing the mute card with all of us around here?" He kept on mocking the woman, who appeared to be making every effort to hide her feelings of panic.Blythe slapped his brother's arm and called out, "Blaze, cut it out. When you exert this kind of pressure on her, how can she say something at all?" He rebuked his sister irritably, "Why are you even here? It's not appropriate for you to be here. Let me and Quen do our work, Blythe. Leave us for the t

    "Hey, Snow, what the heck are you doing there again? I had told you that you didn't have to do that; you didn't need to do anything at all, and even Blaze told you that, didn't he? So why do you keep exhausting yourself around when there are actually a lot of other people who can do that?"Blythe continues to lecture her once more for being so stubborn and not really listening to her, as is usual for her. They are keeping her from working, but as always, she always does the exact opposite of what has been asked of her."Blythe, don't try to lecture me again. I simply want to do something around here. I would rather not behave like I own the place." "You don't consider yourself a servant around here, because we don't see you as such. You are our guest, and guests are not required to clean the house or serve us around here." The woman can only answer her in dismay.It has been nearly two months since Blaze granted her permission to stay, and despite the fact that she and Eris have recov

    Eris' incessant rants and groans in my head were interfering with my train of thought. "Goodness, Snow! What the hell are you doing? Have you gone insane? Tell me that this is not actually happening and I'm just seeing things."Realizing exactly what she had been trying to get across, I responded by asking her, "What are you even talking about?" with a swift reply. "You appear to have a knack for noticing things in greater detail than a wolf would normally, Eris; therefore, you must be the one who is most certainly insane, not me.""We both are aware of what I saw you do, so don't try to capitalize on this against me," she called out. "You cannot argue with that fact, Snow, for we are one. I am you, and you are me."Simply due to the fact that I wasn't keen to start an entirely new dispute with her, I made the choice not to respond to her. Eris and I have gotten along quite well while we have been here. In actuality, we were not at odds for quite some time after agreeing to stay here,

    Snow felt shivers rush through her entire body as Blaze's voice echoed in her ears. "What are you doing here at this time? Where is Blythe, and why aren't you sleeping yet? You should be resting by now."She stutter-fumbled in her response as she took note of the man's concerned voice for her. "I was—," she began.Blaze repeated his query as he approached her, cutting her off with what she had to say: "You're what? What are you doing here at this hour when you should be drifting off to sleep and resting as we have been expecting from you?"Without giving it a whole lot of thought, she cried out, "I was waiting for you." And when she witnessed the response that her statement caused in Blaze, she wanted to hit herself because of her foolishness again. Whenever the man is in front of her, she just loses herself in his stare. "I mean—"Blaze came towards her again, and for an unknown reason, her heart is in a state of complete chaos. "You are waiting for me? Why is that so?" he asked. "Do

    "Who is she? What's up with her? I meant to say, what's her connection with him? She seems to be your brother’s girlfriend, but is she?" Snow asked the questions directly to Blythe since she couldn't stop herself from doing so, which caused her friend to look at her suspiciously."Snow, I'm really confused as to what you are actually referring to. To whom are you even alluding when you say "she?" Blythe is completely oblivious to her friend's reactions and the sudden questions she fired at her, but she assumes that the two jerks have once again brought a woman into the house, and that is the reason for her to ask these things.She replied casually, "The woman who was here last night. You know, the one who kissed him in front of me. I don't even know if she left because I don't have plans to see them making out in front of me, so I made the conscious decision to leave."So indeed, the jerks actually brought women back home when she specifically told them not to. "Those idiots!" She mutt

    All of those comments from my wolf continue to leave me more and more baffled about whatever I am feeling for Blaze, and her urging me to hold off on doing anything about it until I am ready to embrace the fact that he is our second chance mate added to the confusion for me.Eris seems to accept the fact that he is indeed our second chance mate, while I continue to detest that idea because I know that there is still a faint connection between me and Phoenix. I know so because I can still feel it.And that is the reason why I am also aware that I shouldn't be developing such a strong connection with Blaze, yet for some reason I do, and I find it difficult to fight it each and every day. And I even hate the fact that the presence of this Cleo has strengthened my strong desire for Blaze to have my mark placed on him and to own him as mine.Obviously, despite my desire to do so, I cannot and will not take such action. A human who is not even my mate cannot have my mark placed on them. I do

    Blaze shoved Cleo firmly to stop her from kissing him shortly after he realized exactly what she had been attempting to carry out. "What the hell, Cleo, what was that all about?" He then turned to his side to look for Snow, but she was already out of his sight, and for some reason the guilt of what he had done is bugging him.Blaze's response to her was unexpected for her, and she is not pleased with it at all. She doesn't know why this sudden reaction from him occurs when they do these things all the time. In a fit of rage, she pointed out, "What is wrong with you, Blaze? What do you mean by asking me, What was that all about? I'm freaking kissing you! I am fucking kissing my boyfriend."Boyfriend? He thought to himself. They are not really in an official relationship, but yes, they would act like they are in a relationship most of the time, but still, what they are is not really the issue for him right now. What would Snow be thinking about that scene they made in front of her?This

    I had been remarkably silent since we returned to the room, and Eris couldn't help but ask me, "Snow, are you okay? I am aware of the pain you are experiencing at this moment."I chose not to answer her and just kept talking to myself about what I was going through. I don't even understand myself, but Eris has been right, not just in her assumption but also in her assertion that I am in misery for the reason that we both know, but I find it hard to admit. And the most important question here is: Why do I feel this way?I have no understanding of precisely why or how, but I am experiencing the same pain as I did when Phoenix betrayed and rejected me. I went on to think to myself, "How can the Moon Goddess possibly give me a second chance mate, considering that I haven't even consented to the rejection from my first mate, Phoenix, and for what reason would she give me another prospect who would almost certainly reject me again?"Eris said again, "Snow, don't lie to me because I can feel

    "Ryder!""What? What do you want?""What? Are you out of your mind? Are you seriously addressing me that way? Is this exactly how you are expected to speak to me? Are you forgetting something around here? And really, are you using that tone of voice with me? I can banish you from here if I want to!"Ryder was compelled to change his stance and lower his head in obedience, and with a heave of his breath, he said, "Luna.""Luna, what, Ryder? What is so hard about it that you're finding it difficult to address me properly? Can't accept the fact that our lives are interchanged now?" Ryder can only grip his knuckles tightly, trying to control the irritation he is feeling. "I am waiting, Ryder."With another heave of his breath, he

    Alpha Cohen is unable to determine how long he had been out of consciousness, but when he regained awareness, the first thing he came across was the knowledge that he was iron-chained to the walls. He is still feeling dizzy and lightheaded, so he is refraining from making any drastic moves.He is sure that whatever he is feeling at this point is an effect from the wolfsbane that has been injected into him. That poison might have been the cause of why he fell unconscious, but still it is fortunate for him that he was able to withstand the effects due to him being an alpha.The situation he is in is really difficult and dangerous, as he doesn't really know who to trust anymore. A lot of his pack members have turned against him and shifted to Ronan, and that is something that he can't understand why. He is furious about what is happening, but he is being careful a

    "Alpha Phoenix, Luna Snow, I truly apologize for the disturbance that I am making right now, but there is something that you should know," Tank said apologetically. "There is someone who wants to see you."Phoenix and Snow are taking time off from their pack duties in order to have a special quiet moment together, as spending time with each other is essential for them to further nurture their bond, but the manner in which Tank spoke explicitly suggests that something critical has come up, and as the alpha and luna, they need to take time to listen to what he has to say and prioritize the pack."What is it, Tank? What's the matter?" Alpha Phoenix asks his beta. "Is something wrong? Who wanted to see us?""Alpha, Luna Sierra, and Beta Mark of the Black Knight Pack are here. They wanted to talk to you and Luna Snow."

    Alpha Cohen has been continuously feeling giddy for quite a while now, but he has been trying to dismiss the negative thoughts and morbid scenes playing in his mind, even though that is so hard to do. Something just doesn't feel right for him, but he can't really pinpoint where his anxiousness is coming from.He and his beta, Mark, were just talking about how they could get far ahead of Ronan's schemes, so there is really no point in becoming uneasy at this point. He had already made plans with his beta on how they could derail Ronan's attacks, and it's even a good thing that Phoenix's father is still blissfully unaware that his daughter has returned and has officially become Phoenix's mate.Time is of the essence for all of them, so he is also aware that their big secret, that Snow and Phoenix are mates, will not be kept for so long, so they need to be prepare

    "Did everything go well?" Alpha Cohen Saunders questioned Ryder as soon as the Black Knight pack's fighter arrived at his office. "Is Snow alright in there? Do we need to send in people from our pack to ensure my daughter's safety? I don't want to take any chances at all, Ryder. We must ensure Snow's safety at all costs.""No need to worry about anything at all, Alpha. Sky River Pack accepted Snow as their Luna wholeheartedly. She is doing alright and is, in fact, enjoying being welcomed by the whole pack. The festivity is still ongoing as we speak, and she seems to be enjoying every moment of it," Ryder stated. "Phoenix has been with her all throughout the announcement, ensuring that Snow is okay, so there is really nothing to be concerned about."Ryder recently returned from the Sky River Pack to make sure that Snow has had no issues with Phoenix's pack.

    "Luna, it's about time." As Phoenix called out these words to me, my heart started to pound hard in my chest. I felt somewhat anxious about what was about to happen next. And as if he's reading what was in my thoughts again, he said, "Hey, everything's going to be fine, my love," in a whisper, wrapping his arms around my waist and trailing his lips on my neck all the way through my mark. "They'll like you. Trust me that they won't have any violent reactions when they meet you.""I don't know. I don't want to feel this way, but I am really feeling a bit scared right now." And this is me forgetting that I am a warrior because I am admitting to myself and to my mate my fear at the moment. "What if they don't accept me as their luna?"My mate smiled at me as he caressed my cheeks in an attempt to pacify me. "They'll like you, Snow. And they've been excited to meet

    The entire area was so silent that even the sound of a pin dropping was likely to be overheard. There have been no words spoken, and all they can do is stare at one another in silence. All of them are in deep thought about the reality that was about to change everything for them.Everyone struggled to find the right words, uncertain about how to handle the situation as it was. Nobody expected the truth to be this way; nevertheless, it is, and no spoken words were sufficient to justify the emotions they are experiencing. Who would have thought that they would come face to face with this kind of truth? Quen and Blythe are not ready for anything like this.It had been several days since Blaze awoke from his coma, and after that, numerous procedures followed. It was necessary for them to know the boss's condition. After ensuring that he was already doing well and r

    Snow gasped out to her wolf all of a sudden, "He's in pain and he's dying. I don't know what's happening to him." She has been feeling uneasy since earlier; she has even tried to disregard the negative thoughts that come with the fear that is building inside of her, but at this moment, she can no longer put it behind her because her sense of anxiety is becoming stronger over time. "We need to see him. We need to know what's happening."Even without speaking names, her wolf recognizes who she is making reference to. And Eris is adamant about agreeing with her, simply because she is aware it will get them into trouble again, not just with the pack, but especially with their alpha mate."I don't feel anything anymore, Snow; whatever attachment I used to have with him vanished after our alpha mate marked us." Eris is trying to break it to her gently that she won't

    "Argh! Bullshit! Ouch! What the hell is this?" Blaze's tormented voice reverberated throughout the room. What could possibly be happening to him again? "Quen! Fuck it! I'm in so much pain!"He has no idea what is happening to him again; nevertheless, he feels as if he is about to die any minute now. But in this moment of distress, all he can think about is Snow, his mate. The pain he feels right now is far greater than the pain that he felt when Snow told him that he had been rejected. He doesn't want to think about it, but is this somewhat related to the woman he loves? Is what happening to him because of Snow again?"Quen! Blythe!" He cried out again. He requires help since he is gradually losing himself in the pit of darkness that is slowly engulfing him as an effect of his distress. "Help! Somebody help me!"He
