I copsed beside her on the bed, holding her to me, our breathing ragged and heavy. Despite the
pleasure I was feeling, I couldn’t help thinking about how close I came to marking her. Knowing she
wanted me made it harder to resist. And Kieran wasn’t any help.
I didn’t know how much longer I could hold out.
“A,” I whispered.
“Hmm…” she hummed.
“Do you think you’ll be able to talk to Kylee before the Alpha ceremony?” I asked, my fingers trailing
along her arm.
“Probably,” she murmured sleepily. “The sooner, the better, I suppose. Why?”
“Because I want it to be your ceremony, too.”
She pushed up, looking at me with a confused expression that was so da*n adorable.
“What are you talking about?” she asked.
I chuckled. “I want it to be your Luna ceremony,” I rified. “And my Alpha ceremony. And our mating
ceremony. Everything. I don’t want to spread it all out. I want us to start the next part of our lives
together.
”
“Can we even do that?”
“If you’re ready for it,” I said, brushing her hair back. “Just think about

it, okay? Let me know what you want after you speak with Kylee.”
The ceremony was only three weeks away, but I didn’t care what it took to make the changes happen.
If A said she wanted it, it would happen. But it was all up to her. I just had to pray that Kylee wouldn’t
try to hurt her for this.
“Maybe I shoulde with you,” I suggested. “We can talk to her together. Or I can talk to her. This is
all my fault for being with her in the first ce.”
A hugged my chest but shook her head. “No, I need to do this. But thank you.”
She snuggled closer. We were both exhausted, and I started to drift off,pletely content with my
mate’s head on my chest and her leg draped over my waist.
“What time is it?” A asked before I fell asleep.
“Hmm? I’m not sure,” I replied. “After midnight, at least.”
She let out a deep sigh. “You should probably go,” she said sadly. “We won’t be avoiding any rumors if
you’re caught leaving my rooms in the morning.”
“We won’t be avoiding rumors if I’m caught leaving in the middle of the night,” I teased. “But you’re
right. We may have to stay away from each other for the next few days to make this work.”
I hated the thought of it. My chest tightened painfully at not being able to be with A now. But I knew it
would be necessary.
“I know,” she agreed. “All my stuff is still at theke house anyway. I might need to stay there.”

“No,” I said firmly. “It’s too secluded up there. I don’t want you up there with this stalker after you. My
parents are staying here for the next week or so anyway. I’ll have someone bring your stuff to you in
the morning. We’ll manage.”
“Will we?” she teased.
My lips twitched up and I kissed her hair. “Yeah, after what we’ve been through already, this will be a
piece of cake.”
Aughed. “If you say so. But you should still go.”
“Shh,” I said. “I’ll leave after you’re asleep.”
She didn’t protest. It didn’t take long, and I know I stayed longer than I needed to, but I couldn’t feel bad
about it. I tucked her under the covers and somehow found the strength to leave, heading to my own
room in the next wing. When I made it back, I sensed someone inside.
I opened the door. “Dad?”
My father was sitting in the armchair near the small bookcase. He was looking at a framed picture he
was holding. I was initially worried, but his energy felt calm, peaceful even.
“Everything okay, Dad?”
“Have you fixed it?” he asked without looking up.
“Fixed what?” I replied, confused.
“I know about you and A,” he replied calmly. “I thought something was going on, but I didn’t want to
hope.”
“Dad, I… How?” I questioned.

“I thought it was just wishful thinking on my part. My mind wanting me to see things that weren’t there,”
he exined. “But then I felt her rejoin the pack today. I knew it was her.”
“Yeah,” I confirmed happily. “It was her.”
“I asked your mother if she knew anything,” he said, giving me a stern look. “She wouldn’t tell me
much. Only that the situation got messy and you were fixing it. So, did you fix it?”
I grinned. “Yeah, Dad. I fixed it,” I said. “Well, most of it. The most important part.”
He smiled at me. “So, do I have a new daughter-inw?”
Maughed, taking a seat across from him. “Not just yet,” I said. “But
soon. We have a couple things to take care of first.’
”
“I promised your mother I wouldn’t ask what happened,” he said. “And I won’t. All that matters is that
you and A found each other.”
I nodded, grateful he didn’t push for an exnation.
He set the picture he was holding back on the shelf. “So, what are you doing with Randall
Fallweather?”
I shook my head, admiring how easily he could shift from father to Alpha.
“We started questioning him today, but he’s not talking,” I said. “I canmand him, but he’s not a
Greytooth. He doesn’t seem that strong, but we’ll have to see. I don’t think he did this on his own.”
“But we suspect a motive behind this, right?”
“He’s looking for something specific.” I stated. “We know he’s looking

for information. We don’t know what that information is or why he wants it. He’s been working with
Professor Armand since he’s been here. We’ve talked to him before, but I’m bringing him in tomorrow
to see what he can tell us.”
“And you don’t suspect him of being involved?” my father asked.
“I didn’t sense anything that indicated that he was,” I said. “But I wanted to ask you what you thought.
You know him better than I do. Do you think we should be looking eloser at him?”
“He’s well-respected at the college,” Dad said. “He was born a Greytooth. He’s a few years older than
me, but I knew him casually in our younger years. But I can’t say either way. I can say that we can’tThis content is ? N?velDrama.Org.

I nodded. “I’ll keep an eye on him.”
