LEAH

I’m disappointed to wake up alone to a note again, but at least this time it explains he will be back and

we will face things together.

I stay in bed a little while longer than I normally would, wanting to hang onto the threads of last night’s

magic. Aaron made love to me and then held me in his arms all night long.

It was exactly what I needed after everything that happened.

Eventually, however, I get up and start my day, seeing to the million little things required of the Luna to

multiple packs and

joint CEO to billion-dollar businesses.

Just after lunch time, an email lands in my inbox, and pause as I see the sender.

Tobin.

What could he possibly want after our last meeting?

He hadn’t been willing to tell me anything of use before Aaron and Ryker had arrived, scaring him off.

At this point, I feel like he’s just toying with me, but I open the email anyway.

Part of me thinks he’s lying about the Al tech going missing

the night my brother died, but I can’t prove that from gut feeling alone.

I need proof.

Which means playing the game a little longer.

With a deep breath, I open the email.

Luna Leah, if you want real answers, I’m willing to give them to you. Meet me, but come alone. You

can’t trust anyone in your life, especially not Aaron. He’s lying to you, but maybe part of you already

knows that.

There’s an address and a time for later tonight underneath the body of the email.

For a second, the words about Aaron lying make me uneasy.

Aaron has lied to me in the past, it is true.

But things are different now.

We’ve both changed.

And I choose to believe we’ve changed for the better.

“What are you reading that’s got you frowning like that?”

I glance up at the sound of Aaron’s voice to see him leaning casually against the doorframe of the

office.

“You’re back!” I don’t bother to hide my excitement or enthusiasm like I always have in the past when I

was happy to see Aaron.

I know this time he won’t rebuff me, so I jump up and go over to greet him with a hug and a kiss.

Aaron opens his arms and easily-and affectionately-returns my embrace and it finally feels like we’re a

real couple and true mates.

“So, what was it you were reading? The stock market report? Because I know it’s dismal today.”

I shake my head. “Come and see for yourself, but you’re not going to like it.”

Aaron se nds me a questioning look and then goes over to my computer.

As soon as he reads the email, his expression darkens.

“That conniving ba stard,” Aaron mutters in a harsh voice. “This

is obviously some kind of trap, Leah. Tobin wants to use you to get to me.”

“Well, I didn’t think it was anything good,” I say in return,

crossing my arms as I realize I might have stumbled onto

something else Aaron has kept me in the dark about. “But what makes you so sure?”

Aaron hesitates for a moment, and I can see him fighting old habits of brushing me off and not telling

me, because he somehow thinks that will protect me.

We’re stronger together if we stand as equals.

And I know he realizes that now.

“I think Tobin is the one who’s been trying to ki ll me the past few months.”
