I was at a loss for words at Isabe’s kind gesture, there was no way I would say no to this. Not just
because it is a tradition I would love to share with my daughter if I will be blessed with one. But
because Isabe feels like a second mother to me. Not just my mother–inw. And as excited as I am
to start my future with Griffin here. As much as I enjoy living here and getting to know the pack. It feels
good to still have a bit of family here. So with Daniel living here, and Griffin’s family, I feel more at home
than I thought I would.
Funny how when Dillion asked me the first time I met him if I would be. willing to leave my pack. Leave
my family and go and live in another pack. I gave him the most nomittal answers. Because A I
was so sure I would never be chosen by Griffin and, B had not felt like a part of the pack for so long.
Now his pack feels like my pack, even without the transition being finalized. And the family of the
Crown Prince I was so set to avoid feels like family, too.
That’s why I did not hesitate when Rodrick showed up at our doorstep. I had a responsibility towards
my new family and my pack. What I told Griffin was the truth, I was finally convinced him and I would
have a whole lifetime of making memories ahead of us. And I was sure Isabe‘ s kind and thoughtful
gift was not the reason they needed to speak with
1. us.
After hugging Isabe, I sat down and passed around the food I brought

with me. Looking at Rodrick, waiting for him to tell is the bad news.
“The Elder council has decided not to wait until we find David. They want to put Hannah on trial in two
weeks” Rodrick got the hint and immediately exined why we were gathered there.
It didn’t register with me why this would be bad news at first. Or why it meant Griffin and I had to
interrupt our date to discuss this. Slowly, like I tried to block it out but lost against my own mind, the
realization dawned on me. Going to trial means there would be a court, I would have to testify. Tell the
city of Elder Wolves and everyone remotely interested in what happened to my experiences during that
horrible time in my life. A time in my life that caused me to visit a therapist almost every weekday
because of how much it had hurt me. How much it still
hurts me.
I would have to talk about how badly this whole ordeal influenced my life. All while showing the people I
still was the strong and kind Princess. In most cases, the victims are asked for an idea about the
punishment too. As the Princess and future Queen, what I say will be scrutinized. No matter what they
did to me as the future ruler of the entire nation, I would need to make sure to be just in whatever
punishment I requested. Even if there was no guarantee that the Elder Council would agree with what I
asked for.
Nation,
“Are you sure you can handle that, Darling, is there anything, anything at all we can help you with?” I
had drowned out the other’s talking as I wasing to terms with what this news meant for me. But

worried voice pulled me back to the conversation.
He was sweet to want to help me, but there was not much he could do. Nothing other than be there for
me and to just be himself. So that is what I told him. Rodrick and Isabe told me they would be there
for me with whatever I heeded. Suggesting that I should invite my family over to give me even more
moral support.
“Well A was still a member of the White Oak pack when she was kidnapped, so Alpha Cedric is
going to need to be here for the trial regardless” Griffin mushed.
And he was right at the time I was a wolf kidnapped from his pack property. A wolf under his protection,
so in kidnapping me, David and his helpers hadmitted an act of war against the White Oak pack
and the Silver Moon pack in one big swoop.
“That is another topic we need to address, A, you are still not officially a member of the pack. Most
wolves in our pack are understanding, of what you have been through and the effect it has on you. But
as you know, some pack members are not as open to having you as Griffin’s mate. More so out of
personal reasons than because of you. The thing is, with you seemingly notmitting to each other,
they had grounds to spread rumors. You and Griffin being marked will help with the rumors a bit but…”
Isabe sighed like she was unsure of how
to go on.
When the four of us knew exactly what she was hinting at. If I was to

make sure that the pack would love and ept me as their own. I needed to be epted into the pack
sooner rather thanter. Which didn’t bother me at all, it made perfect sense and I was ready to fully
be a member of the Silver Moon pack. There had been only one thing. stopping me, and that was
wanting toplete the mating process with Griffin first.
Now that had finallye through I was ready to be an official member of the pack where I found
my happiness again and the pack. where I had been living for weeks now.
“So you are saying we need to n an extra event, so I can cut my–bond with the White Oak pack to
form one with the Silver Moon pack?” I asked, just to be sure that was what Isabe had been so
worried about.
“You do, and I do not want to rush you but sadly I think there is a bit of rush” She answered me without
any hesitation.
I smiled because if this was thest thing we needed to discuss, Griffin and I would still have some time
to go out and eat some more. Maybe it would be ate dinner since I still wanted to try to shift too.
Regardless of how we would n the rest of the night though this wouldn’t take much longer.
“I don’t mind the rush, I needed to heal a bit more but we can start nning something and sending out
invites this Monday if that works for you?” My answer surprised both Rodrick and Isabe.

Griffin just smiled at me, which made sense. I was undoubtedly close to his parents. But no one would
ever get me the way Griffin did. He must have known or felt I was ready to permanently be a part
of his pack. Or he was just smiling because he could sense me wrapping this up because we had other
things to do.
“Then do not let me stop you kids from celebrating.” Isabe said with a bright smile on her face.
She didn’t have to say it we all knew she was happy I was going to officially be a part of her pack. I just
hope she knows how happy I am about it too. And more importantly, I hope the other pack members
do.
too.
