I watched A as she conversed with Dasha. I didn’t even think she realized I had noticed. Whatever
was going through her mind, whatever was being said between them, needed to happen. Kieran had
been quiet for days. Only snippets of his rage and anguish would push through at times. But he was at
the edge of my consciousness now. As if he was waiting for something.
A’s hands had stopped, and she

couldn’t see Dasha in her eyes. She was just deep in thought. I reached
up and lifted her chin, my eyes meeting hers.
“Are you okay?” I asked gently, running the pad of my jawline.
umb along her
She took a deep, slow breath, stepping into my arms as hers slid around my waist. “I’m getting there,”
she replied softly. “I know I should be questioning what I did tonight, but I’m not. It still feels like it was
the necessary thing to do.”
“It was,” I agreed firmly. “Too many people have believed they could best us. They made targets out of
us. At the very least, they will think twice now. We had a right to do what we did.”
“We will still be a target for others, though,” she said calmly. “We could reduce that by refusing to
merge the stones. Give the halves to the Alpha leaders to protect.” She sighed again. “What do you
think about all this business with the Moonstone?”
I brushed her wet hair from her face, holding her tightly to me. “I think there is some validity to what we
are finding out. However, we can’t move forward with anything unless we both agree to it. Whatever is

meant to happen, we’re meant to do it together. That I am sure of.”
A soft, brief smile touched A’s face before her expression became serious again. “I think we need to
join the Moonstones.”
I was a little taken aback by how sure she sounded. I understood why she had been against it in the
first ce. She has had so little peace in her life. Our time together was supposed to provide her with
that. I was ready to give her that, regardless of my own doubts. But she didn’t seem pressured in her
decision.
“Why the change of heart?” I asked.
“Dasha,” she replied. “She believes we are meant to do this. She’s always believed. She…” A
paused as her brow furrowed. “She said this will fix things. That it will make us all stronger again. Like
we are supposed to be.”
Kieran grunted his agreement with her statement. He and Dasha both knew something we didn’t. They
sensed something we couldn’t.
“What does that mean?” I asked, reaching to turn off the taps.
“I’m not sure,” A replied as she grabbed our towels. “She won’t tell me. She keeps telling me to trust
her. The truth is, I’ve been denying her for too long. She has always believed we are the Blessed One
and I insisted she was wrong. Now, it doesn’t matter. She believes we were meant to do this. I won’t
deny her anymore.”
“We both know this will likelyplicate our lives even more.
”
“I know,” she acknowledged. “But that’s not a reason not to do it. But we still need to get approval from
the other pack leaders. Or at least, the majority of them. If we go against them on this, it will guarantee
a war.”

“I agree,” I said. “We’ll talk to all of them. From the sound of it, Sister Mona thinks this will benefit all the
packs, and I believe her. We’ll get them to see that too.”
“And maybe she can help us set up some kind of security n,” A said as she grabbed some
clothes. “You know, something that lessens the power imbnce this will cause.”
“Exactly,” I replied, pulling on a pair of pants.
I picked up A’s hairbrush and started brushing her hair once she finished dressing. It was getting
eager to return home.
“Let’s get some food in you.” I put the brush away and turned A toward me. “Then we’ll meet with
one or two of the pack leaders tonight.”
A nodded. “Okay. Alpha Gregory or Alpha Vincent may be good ces to start,” she suggested as
we left the bathroom.
“I think it should be Alpha Anthony and Luna Aniya first,” I said. “They were hesitant at the pavilion. I
don’t think it’s because they are in league with Delta Charles, but there was something there.”
“It could be embarrassment,” A said with a shrug. “But you’re right, there was something stopping
them.”
“And I can’t figure out what it could be,” I replied. “I can see Alpha Trent being an issue. In fact, I’m
almost counting on it. Maybe even Alpha Patrick. But Anthony is a friend. I was at his Alpha ceremony
ten years ago. I think they’re our first priority.”

escort Alpha Anthony and his Luna to our apartment. We ate quickly and set up some refreshments at
the dining room table. Briggs arrived as we finished with Sister Mona.
“Thank you for joining us, Sister Mona,” I said as we took our seats at the table. “There is more that we
want to know about this prophecy and the Moonstones. And I’m sure the other pack leaders will have
the same questions. It will make this a lot easier having you here.”
“Indeed,” Sister Mona said with a smile. “I will provide whatever help you need. Is there anything you
would like to know before we meet with the others?”
“No,” A interjected. “We don’t think there is anything we would learn that we wouldn’t want to share
with the rest of the packs. So there’s no reason we should have to go through everything more than we
have to.”
Sister Mona smiled at A and me, pride filling her expression. “Absolutely.”
