“We are talking hypothetically, right?” I asked Selene, still feeling astounded that I was even
conversing with the Moon goddess at all.
“Oh, of course.” She smiled, her eyes watching me as I rose from the stone. table and paced back
and forth in front of her, feeling a little weirded out by the fact there was no floor under me, just pure
white light dancing around my feet like smoke.
“What sort of significant cost are we talking about?” I asked, pursing my lips. let her words sink in
because it was the polite thing to do, but I already knew what I wanted to say; I simply didn’t want to
come across as flippant.

“Does it matter?” She smiled, and I shook my head,ing to a stop in front of

“My father is right; they have been away for years, and the pack does not know them properly. Not
really. They are not the same yboys that left. They are men! With their own morals and ways of
doing things… But the pack, after losing their Alpha, needs consistency, security and someone
willing to put the pack before their
own needs.”
“And you don’t know if they would be able to offer that.” She asked me inly.
“They are grieving. not just the loss of their father but their final moments with him; they don’t know
if Havoc was responsible, and with that hanging over them, they can’t lead… they won’t be able to..

suggested, running my head through my hair, only to realise it was still matted in blood.
“So you would pick their father?” Selene questioned, but we both knew my
answer.
“No.” I whispered as I stilled and looked down at my stained hands that held the blood of so many
people on them: Mike, My father, Alpha Leigh, Kane… Sebastian. Sighing, I chewed my lip.
“Sebestian can not die. I need him to survive because if he does on ournd, at a ball where he was
poisoned and left defenceless, by one of
our own… there would be war.”
“There would!” Selene nodded in agreement as if she already knew the answer. “But with Alpha
Leigh alive, would that not help Knox’s case?” Selene asked, and I shook my head sadly.
“I would be bringing back Alpha Leigh only to sacrifice so many other innocent lives,” I whispered,
my chest feeling heavy with sorrow and guilt.
“But if you brought them both back… you would be the one to make a sacrifice.” She replied, her
white eyes narrowing as I processed her words.
“But that would be my choice; it wasn’t Alpha Leighs to die or Alpha Sebestians to be fatally
injured.. and it wouldn’t be the countless innocents who were ughtered in an attack my boys
were unable to prevent. But I could prevent it..”
“So you would bring them both back? Without knowing what the price you had to pay was?” Selene
asked, her lips curling into a smile that had chills running down my spine.
“Yes!” I nodded and resolved in my answer. “Hypothetically, of course.” I smiled, and she rose from
the wall and stepped into me, her hands sliding up and down my arms in a featherlight motion that I
still couldn’t feel.
“But, between us girls… who would you have saved if you could have only saved one?” She asked,
and I smirked slowly, my eyes scanning her features because she already knew the answer to that.

“Sebastian, but you knew that.” I grinned, letting out a long breath.
“I did.” Sheughed. “I will help you, Charlotte, if you are sure it is what you want.” Selene offered,
“Sebastian is already healing.” She winked as she sat back down on the wall, her hand dunking into
the water. I thanked her, but she held her finger up to pause me.
“But before I bring back your Alpha, I want you to speak with your mates because your sacrifice will
not only cost you… but them too. And if you still want me to return Alpha Leigh to them… I will. But
please, don’t say I didn’t warn you!”
My knees felt like they would give out, but somehow, I remained upright. I stared at the moon
goddess, enchanted by her charity. She had so many to protect, and yet she had chosen me and
mine. I was beyond grateful, but words didn’t seem to cut it, and I doubted she wanted a hug.
“Thank you.” I nodded when I could think of nothing more fitting to say.
“Do not thank me yet, my sweet Charlotte. You are in for a bumpy road ahead and will be cursing
me before the month is through. Of that, I have no doubt.” That familiar chill ran down my spine and
settled in my lower back as her words. registered. Was this a mistake? It didn’t matter, though,
because it was a risk I was willing to take!
“Selene,” I asked, and she turned to face me, her lips twisted in a knowing smile as she no doubt
predicted my question before it had even left my lips.
“Are you happy?” I asked as I returned to sit beside her, wanting to offer her an
ounce of the kindness I believed she had shown me.
“Sometimes, my sweet girl.. when I have the pleasure of meeting people who surprise me.” I felt a
blush rise to my cheeks and chewed my lips.
“Do you meet many?” I asked, wanting to know if she had brought many wolves here because the
folkw stated she never showed herself or mingled with her kind; most even doubted her
existence.
“You never did, though, did you?” she asked with a
od of thanks.

“Never!” I admitted in truth. “Although I always thought you’d have brown hair!” I giggled, feeling
content for the first time today. My boys were safe! My pack was safe! And Selene was reall I
watched her nod to the space behind me, my eyes followed to see a door appear, and I frowned for
a minute, not wanting to leave her.
Not yet.
“Selene… How do I get back to you if I need you?” I asked nervously as I stood and approached the
doorway, knowing where it would lead me if I went through.
“I will know, sweet Charlotte, because I will be watching. Do not forget that!” She replied in what felt
more like a warning than a promise.
