“Who the hell is this Walter guy?” Dex’s growl echoed in my mind as Willow left
the dining room during her phone call. The intensity of my frustration matched
the clattering noise of the fork hitting the plate. The mention and interest of
this man concerning Willow seton edge. I pressed the middle of my
forehead, restraining myself from using my wolf senses to cavesdrop on her
conversation to learn more. about that guy.
Suddenly, another familiar voice reachedfrom outside, despitenot using
my wolf hearing. It was unclear and faint. Rising from my seat, I strode to the
window. Out

hear a single word, Ella abruptly left, leaving Willow with a betrayed expression.
Confusion knitted my brows. What was happening? My gaze followed Willow the
entire way as she returned to the packhouse a couple of seconds later. She
glanced toward the dining area where I stood by the window. Her eyes held a
new layer of hatred as they shimmered with unshed tears and had a slightly red
tint to them. My frown deepened. Why had she glared atlike that?
She averted her gaze fromand instead of returning to the dining area, she
headed upstairs. I stood there, thoroughly confused, when another voice
resonated in my mind.
“Reuben,” Oran’s voice cthrough the mind-link, “Could you please cup
to your office? There is an important matter we need to discuss.”
“Coming,” I replied, leaving my spot by the window. The children were engrossed
in their food and conversation, so they’d be occupied for a while.
Leaving the dining room, I ascended the stairs to my office where Oran greeted
“What’s this about?” I inquired, arching an eyebrow as I unfolded the paper
marked with an official seal and Alpha Conar’s signature.
The Blue Heaven Pack stood among the top five packs, It was robust and
formidable much like my own. Alpha Conar and I had been best friends since we
were in school together, we shared numerous profitable treaties and engaged in
several joint business ventures. However, due to our responsibilities and busy
schedules, our meetings were limited, often occurring at Alpha Balls. This letter
from Conar marked the first the had ever sentan official
communication. As I delved into the contents of the letter,

Oran spoke up.
“To save you the bother of reading that, last night another pack was
mysteriously wiped out, much like the Silver Moon Pack,” Oran revealed.
“What?” I was taken aback, my gaze locking onto Oran. “Which pack?”
Oran’s expression was grave as he replied, “The Green Wood Pack.”
“The Green Wood Pack?” My eyes widened instantly. Similar to Silver Moon and
Blue Heaven, the Green Wood Pack held a position as one of the strongest and
top-ranked packs. Yet, it had suffered the sfate. With their extensive
number of pack members and unparalleled strength, it seemed utterly
impossible for the Green Wood Pack to be eradicated in a single night. “So, this

letter…” I paused in suspicion.
Oran nodded in confirmation, “Two powerful and top-ranking packs have been
annihilated in a very short span of time, causing fear and concern among all the
packs. All the leading packs have convened to investigate. The meeting is being
held at Blue Heaven, and Alpha Conar has requested your presence, given that
our pack is the foremost among all the packs,” Oran clarified, summarizing the
essence of the letter.
I tossed the letter onto my desk and leaned back in my chair. “Reuben, are you
considering going?” Oran inquired.
I nodded, lost in thought. “Now that this situation has escalated to this extent, I
can’t just sit idly by. The destruction of both the Silver Moon and the Green
Wood Packs, two of our allies, is a significant loss to our pack. If this continues,
chaos will reign, and I won’t stand for it,” I stood up, moving toward the window.
“Absolutely, if this pattern continues we could be the next in line for an attack,”
Oran warned.
“I don’t care if we’re attacked,” I remarked, lighting a cigarette. “In fact, I find it
intriguing how a pack of thousands could simply vanish.”
Oran looked atin confusion, “If the attack doesn’t concern you, then what
does interest you?”
“The person behind all of this,” I exhaled a puff of smoke and glanced over my
shoulder, noticing a third person standing in the doorway.
Oran frowned and turned toward Bix, “Why the heck are you here? I told you to
stay away from Reuben for a while.”
“It’s been over a week! How long am I supposed to stay in exile?!” Bix snapped
back. “I

can’t stand being ignored by him. I’d rather take another beating just so I can
stand beside him again,” he entered the room, eyeing me. “Reuben, I’m truly
sorry about that day. What I said was a result of pent-up frustration from the
last six years. I didn’t realize when I crossed the line. Willow suddenly appeared
with two children and at that moment, I judged her based on the information
that was in front of me. She acted ruthlessly selfiess towards you years ago. So, I
wanted to hurt her like she did you, when she abandoned you.”
“You’re not in a position to hurt Willow, Bix,” I sharply interrupted him. Bix
valued friendships and relationships above all else. He would react strongly if
someone close to him, especially me, were upset. He had started holding a
grudge against Willow the day. she left me. Bix fell silent and stopped as I
moved toward him. “Whatever happened between Willow and I isn’t for others
to handle. She left me, took my children, and shattered my heart. Whatever she
did, she did to me, and I’ll handle her as I see fit,” I stated firmly, staring him
down.
“I…I understand,” he stuttered with a nod. “I’m truly sorry, so please don’t ignore
me,” his eyes were filled with regret.
“You won’t be forgiven next time,” I muttered as I passed by him.
Bix’s face brightened, “Of course!” he grinned, reverting to his usual self.
I paid no attention to him as I exited my office, while Oran stopped Bix from
followingby grabbing his collar. “Don’t get too excited and make another
mistake, you idiot,” he warned Bix.
“Am I a child?” Bix coldly retorted.
“Worse than a child,” Oran rolled his eyes, then noticed I had already left.
“Where did he run off to so quickly? I still need to respond to Alpha Conar’s Beta
regarding Reuben’s decision…” Oran hurried out of the office, only to find me
downstairs. He panicked, “Reuben, where are you going? You should call Alpha
Conar to confirm your attendance!” he shouted.
“Later, I’m busy right now,” I replied without turning back.
“Busy? I don’t remember you having any meetings scheduled for today,” he
murmured, perplexed but I was already gone.
Willow
After my encounter with Ella, I retreated to my bedroom, seeking peace in the
shower to clear my mind. From our first meeting in Reuben’s office, a small
sense of doubt had

lingered in my mind about her feelings for Reuben and now, everything seemed.
validated. Her expressions, silence, and concealed truths had decimated years
worth of a close friendship, memories, and trust. The sudden shift in my
relationship with my once-close friend, after six years was beyond my wildest
imagination. Then again Reuben had said that Ella was just a friend and that
she didn’t have feelings for him, hadn’t he? A pang of hurt pierced my heart.
Was he lying to me? Yes, he obviously had. He had lied toalot. Why had it
botheredthis time? They were already engaged. I aggressively shut off the
shower and stepped out.
As I wrapped myself in a towel, I realized it was already late in the morning.
Wyatt and Lori, who had been ready to head out since I went done earlier, were
likely waiting for me. My tangled thoughts had kept them waiting far too long. I
hurriedly dressed, opting for a red knee-length sleeveless dress after drying my
hair. There was too much to get done today, and I needed to get going.
Checking my purse one last tto ensure I had everything that I could possibly
need, I made sure the Wade Moon Pack papers were safely tucked inside before
leaving my bedroom. Today was the day that I had planned to return the papers
to Alpha Benjamin and delve deeper into the mysterious incident involving the
Silver Moon Pack, which had beca looming threat to all werewolf packs.
Lost in thought as I descended the stairs, I heard the cheerful voices of my
children. They were already in the living room.
“Wyatt, Lori, let’s go…” I called out to my children affectionately, but my words
caught in my throat when, behind their small figures, I noticed a tall figure
dressed in black, exuding a devilishly handsand affiuent aura.
“Where are you going?” I barely managed to whisper, taken aback by the
unexpected sight.
“Shopping, obviously,” he replied in a cool tone.
“Shopping?” I repeated in disbelief, eyeing him from head to toe. That was when
it dawned on me. “Impossible!” I raised my voice. The very idea that this man
was even considering it shocked me. “I’m not taking you shopping with me,
Reuben!”
Unexpectedly, he stared atfor a couple of seconds before calmly replying,
“Okay.” He walked closer to me, and I couldn’t help but look at him in surprise.

How could he accept it so easily? He was not someone that accepted refusal
easily. Then he suddenly lifted Wyatt and Lori into his arms and stated, “I am
going with my children.”
“What?” My jaw dropped in shock. He was going with the children? But I was
supposed to be taking them and indirectly it means he was tagging with us.
“Let’s go,” he said cheerfully to the children and began walking away.

I stood there stunned for a moment, then exclaimed, “No! Wait!” But he ignored
shoulder but not to argue with me, “We are going to be late, momma,” he smiled
before leaving the packhouse, taking my children along with him right before
my eyes.
I couldn’t help but grit my teeth. How cu nning was this man? Had he planned
all of this? Earlier at the dining table, I had made the mistake of mentioning
shopping in front of him, but he had seemed like he hadn’t heard or cared. Yet,
out of the blue here he was, all dressed up to go shopping and taking my
children out!
I quickly walked out of the pack house only to find all three of them had already
disappeared into my car. Once I looked inside, I found Wyatt and Lori were in
the back. seats like usual, while Reuben had settled into the passenger seat.
I opened the driver’s side door and glared at Reuben, “Get out of my car right
now or…”
Before I could say another word, he suddenly grabbed my hand and pulled me
inside. The door shut behind me, and before I could realize what was
happening, I found myself sitting on Reuben’s lap. “Or what?” he whispered, his
breath fanning against my l*ps.
My heart raced with our close proximity. “Or I will fight you,” I retorted, trying to
push him away, but he caught my hand and rested it softly against his cheek.
“Fight all you want, Willow…” he whispered, gazing into my eyes and brushing
his nose against mine, “I am entirely yours…”
