My eyes were grainy with exhaustion, but my heart raced. I hadn’t slept at all. At this point, I was

“I think I have a solution.” I dug enthusiastically into a bowl of pasta with meat sauce Gabriela had
insisted on putting in front of me before I started talking. The moment I took the first bite, my hunger
roared into life so strong there wasn’t any way to stop myself from gobbling up half the bowl.
I looked up to see everyone staring at me.
Mason looked impressed. Zane, amused. Xander looked pi ssed off, which was no surprise, since

I took another bite and chewed more slowly this time. The flavors of meat and sauce burst on my
tongue, and I felt new life surging through me. When I held up my hand, wiggling my fingers, the glow
around them spread out in wispy waves of shining glitter.
“Incandescent,” Mason murmured. “Goddess, Lanie. You’re almost on fire.”
“How long have you been shining that strongly?” Zane pushed a basket of garlic bread toward me, and
I eagerly tore off a hunk of it with my teeth.
I had to finish chewing and swallowed before I could answer, I shook my head. My hunger was slowly
sating, but I could still feel the energy coursing through me. Burning.
“I’m not sure. I wasn’t paying attention. I was just working on a solution…” Another wave of hunger
roared through me, and I dug back into the pasta.
“You all might as well eat, too,” Gabriela ordered. “She’s going to be a while.”
Xander shot her a look. “You know what’s going on with her?”
” told you. She has to fuel herself. She’s burning an immense amount of energy. Lanie, my girl, you’ll

“I’ve never been this hungry,” I admitted. “Maybe

“I’m not pregnant,” I told them all. “Just starving.”
“Not pregnant with a baby, no. But you are creating something. Growing it,” Gabriela said as she thickly

that Luna gift is being able to eat basically most anything you want. But you won’t always feel like you
need to.”
As the men dished up bowls of pasta and sauce and started eating, I was finally able to ease off a little
bit. I wiped my mouth with a napkin and took a long, grateful drink of water, followed by a few sips of
the good red wine Gabriela had set out for us, too.
I was glad she’d poured wine. It felt like we were going to have a reason to toast. I sipped again, feeling
the wine’s warmth flood through me. The shine hadn’t abated, even if my hunger had softened.

“Just overnight. Almost twenty-four hours,” Xander sounded gruff as he drank some wine.
Now that I was out of the room, he was feeling relieved.
“I still owe you some time with just us,” I whispered through the link. “I just needed some time alone. It
had nothing to do with not wanting to be with you, my love.”
“When? I need you. Want you.” Not only Xander, but Hunter’s voice reached me.
Lily stirred. My wolf had been so patient, but now she huffed out a growl that I almost made out loud.
“Want you. Running.”
“Hello,” Zane said, waving his hand in front of Xander’s face. “When the two of you are ready to share
with
the rest of the class…?”
“Sorry,” I said quickly. I eyed another piece of garlic bread with longing, but forced myself to take a
