Chapter 61

I made my way back to the table I was sitting at and fell heavily into the seat.  Caleb patted me on the shoulder. “Are you okay?” he asked quietly.  I gave him a rueful smile. “Thanks for letting me take care of that,” I said.  “I know you were right behind me.” “Just ready to help if needed.  It took us a long time to learn, but you are incredibly capable.  You handled it better than I would have.” “Thanks,” I acknowledged, accepting a glass of punch from a waiter that was walking around.  My hands were still shaking.  Trying to draw the attention away from that, I craned my neck.  “Any idea where the strawberry shortcake went?  I’ve been waiting for that all night.” Caleb chuckled.  “I’ll go get you some, love,” he said, standing up and heading to the buffet.  I sat back in my chair and, within minutes, the chair next to me was occupied again.  I turned with a smile, expect

Chapter 62

IZZY POVI thought I was dreaming.  It was just like before when I found out I was pregnant.  I could hear the beeping of the heart monitor and sense that my mates were near me. I opened my eyes slowly.  The bright light hurt my eyes and my throat was raw.  I looked around and saw Ethan lying on the couch, sound asleep.  Caleb was in a chair, bolt upright, also sleeping.  I didn’t see Reese.Heka? I tried to talk to my wolf.  I could feel her, faintly, but she didn’t answer me.The door to the hospital room opened and Reese came in.  He was pale with dark circles under his eyes, and he was holding three to-go cups.  I could smell the coffee from my bed.“Izzy!” he said with a sad smile.  “You’re awake.”I nodded.  “What happened?” I asked.  Talk about déjà vu.Reese walked over and nudged Caleb

Chapter 63

IZZY POVIt took me twelve minutes to get ready. Initially, I decided I wasn’t going to go with her, and I figured she could drag me out if it was so important to her.   I would fight her if I had to, I decided.  I wasn’t going to go do what she wanted me to do.  I sat on a stool in my bathroom with my arms crossed over my chest, preparing to be stubborn.  I lost my nerve at the seven-minute mark.  I rushed to put on my clothes and tie up my hair, giving my reflection a rueful look.  What can I say?  I got my stubbornness from my mom, and I knew her well enough to know that she would battle me to get her way.  I was too tired for that.Fortunately, she was preoccupied with a text she had gotten to give me more than just a glance when I came out of my bedroom.  I was glaring at her, but she seemed very unconcerned. “You need to eat something,” she said.“I&rs

Chapter 64

IZZY POVIt had been two weeks since my mom took me to the meadow.  I needed that.  It wasn’t the therapy that a lot of people would find effective, but it was what I needed.  Lucy had been afraid that I would be triggered by her growing belly, but I wasn’t.  I was happy for her and I was glad to be back at work with my best friend.I had stopped by the dining room to grab a snack and I was heading back into my office when the front door to the Alpha House banged open and Piper, Joanna’s granddaughter, rushed in, crying.  I grabbed her and gave her a hug.“What’s wrong, buttercup?  Why are you crying?”She hiccupped on my shoulder.  “It’s nothing, Luna,” she said.“It sure doesn’t sound like nothing,” I said, patting her on the back.  “You can tell me.”She shook her head, her eyes wide.  “Grammy said I am no

Chapter 65

ETHAN POV“Cursed?” I began laughing.  “Surely the pack members aren’t that ignorant.”  I forked up some spaghetti.  We were all in the dining room enjoying the delicious dinner that Joanna had made for us.Lucy shook her head.  “We couldn’t get served in two restaurants,” she said, still angry.  “I know Katie is behind these rumors.”“Is everyone really that superstitious?” Izzy asked, looking amused.  “I can’t imagine everyone thinks this way.” Someone cleared their throat and we turned to look.  Joanna was standing at the door with a basket of garlic bread. “Sirs?  Miss Lucy is correct.  Most of the villagers believe that the Luna is cursed.”  Joanna looked apologetic.  “Of course, none of your staff does and neither do our families.”“We knew you wouldn&

Chapter 66

REESE POV“So that’s how I know Katie didn’t poison Izzy.”  Ethan was sitting in the chair in our sitting room and the three of us were sharing the couch, looking at him.  Izzy was the first to speak.“Exactly what did you ask her and what did she say?” she said.“I said ‘Did you poison Izzy.’  She said ‘no’.”  Ethan sat up straighter.  “Why?  Should I have asked something else?  She admitted to starting the rumor that Izzy was cursed.”I blew out my breath.  “I wish you had talked to us before rushing out,” I said critically.  “There are a lot of answers I would like to get out of little miss Katie.”“Me, too,” Izzy said with a rueful smile.  “Did you think to ask her if she knew who poisoned me?”Ethan looked downcast.  I felt for him.  Izzy rarely cr

Chapter 67

IZZY POV“Let me help you,” I shouted to Lucy through the doorway separating her office from mine.  She had a huge pile of work on her desk and mine was empty.  As the rumor of my being cursed grew, my workload decreased.  No one wanted a cursed Luna helping them.“I’m okay, Izzy,” she said.  “You don’t have to do my work.”I walked through the door connecting our offices and pointed to a stack on her desk.  “They never have to know that I did it,” I wheedled.  “Just let me help.”  She sighed in resignation and gratefully handed over a stack.“It’s just things that need to be ordered,” she said.  “I have no idea why they’re insisting that I do it.”“Because I’m the cursed one,” I said in a lighthearted voice.  I was trying really hard to not let it bother me while I rode this out,

Chapter 68

IZZY POV“Witchcraft?”  I couldn’t help it.  I started to giggle.  “What is this?  High school?  There’s no such thing.”The silence of everyone else made me stop laughing.  “Wait.  Is there?  Witchcraft is real?”Mom gave me a sad smile.  “I really did you a disservice keeping you with the humans as long as I did,” she acknowledged.  “Yes.  Witchcraft is very real, very dangerous and very illegal.  It is punishable by death.”I felt a chill in my stomach.  “Death?” I asked in a tiny voice.“There’s nothing to worry about,” a fierce voice said behind me.  Lucy slipped up and put her arm around me.  “We all know you’re not a witch.  And all we have to do is prove it.”“Umm, doesn’t the accuser have to prove that I’m a witch, not

Chapter 69

CALEB POVI knew what was coming.  I had already heard it and I had completely lost control of Ren when it had been told to me.  Ren wanted to go into the village and rip everyone involved to shreds.  Fortunately, I was able to fight him and get him to go to the Alpha House.  Thank goodness Heka was able to talk to him.My brothers hadn’t heard this part yet.  I would have to keep an eye on them to make sure they didn’t go into the rage like Ren did.“Do you remember your nurse at the hospital?” Elder Johan asked Izzy kindly.  She shook her head.“I had a few, I believe.  I was pretty out of it.”Elder Johan nodded.  “Yes.  But Anne Thorne was the main nurse assigned to your care.”  Izzy was quiet, watching him with rapt attention.  Elder Johan looked at me, hesitant.  I didn’t blame him.  I had gone ballistic and there was only on

Chapter 70

ALPHA STEVEN POVI got off the phone with Caleb and immediately dialed my old friend, Elder Johan.  Alpha James, Elder Johan and I were roommates at the Alpha School in Italy a long time ago.  We used to be the best of friends and I would help my old friend’s sons as best I could as I knew Johan was doing.“Fill me in,” I said to Johan.  I heard him sigh deeply.“This is a farce,” he admitted to me.  “I can clearly see it and I know a few of my Council members will see it this way but the rest are young and susceptible to drama.”  And payoffs, but neither of us said it.  Young wolves with ambition tended to need money and would take a bribe to rule in a certain way.“How bad is it?” I asked. “Two of the testimonies can be written off.  One is purely coincidental.  She probably accidentally poisoned herself.  I’m sure you can find oth
