Gabriela
Lenora’s soft words chimed in my mind like bells as I made my way back to our quarters
She’d been so apologetic, so concerned I would be upset, but the truth was, I’d had som before we
came to Brightsky. And wasn’t it always better to confront your concerns?
I’d spent the morning in the communal library, trying to research, but I’d been able to find very little
should have met with Lenora again today to ask more questions.
Maybe if I’d listened to my wolf’s unease about my husband and his long, unexplained absences, I’d
have learned long ago that Orion had been unfaithful. So much might have been different, if only I’d
trusted myself instead of shoving any fears deep down.
It wouldn’t have to be an angry confrontation or anything like that. I liked Lanie and always had, and it
was also clear that she was a much better mate for my son than Alice could ever have been.
But what if Lanie had compelled Xander into loving her?

I hurried along the corridors without paying much attention to where I was going, heading toward the
children’s wing instead of home. The urge to get back to my babies was so strong it felt like an invisible
fist. yanking me step by step back along the hallways.
Those little ones needed my protection. I could feel it in every fiber of my being.
I’d texted my son about half an hour ago, but so far, Xander hadn’t answered me. Visions filled my
head of him bl oody, injured…or worse. Yes, I knew it was more likely he was in bed with his mates, but
at the same time, my mother’s instinct had kicked in.
Moon Goddess, I prayed. Guide me. Give me strength.
Help me sift out the dangers.
It was true that I no longer felt her inside me as strongly as I had before Lanie became the Luna, but
the Goddess would never completely leave me. No matter how I strained now, though, I couldn’t feel
her presence.
My wolf rose, pacing and growling under her breath
She, too, was fiercely protective of the pups and Xander. She’d always been a little standoffish with
about
Lanie’s wolf, Lily, but I’d always thought it was simply because they hadn’t had much of a chance to run
together. There’d always been a tiny bit of Luna rivalry, even though I had willingly abdicated my role
when my
son was mated.

Immediately, I tossed up a thought-shield. I’d begun learning to hide my thoughts behind a wall from

Melina looked surprised. “Oh, but it’s so early! The school usually doesn’t release them until closer to
the dinner break. I thought you and I might spend some time getting to know one another.”
“I miss them. I forced a laugh, trying to sound like a silly old woman. “I spent so much time with them
when they were tiny. I’ve been the twins’ primary caregiver since they were born.”
“And little Stella, our Celestial wonder, Melina murmured, tilting her head.

“Yes. Lanie’s child.” Stella was special because her mother was, and I loved that little girl fiercely
because she was my blood…but there was no denying that I also feared what might be on the h ori zon
for all of us because of her.

Melina’s eyes narrowed, and I strengthened my shield.
“Perhaps we could have tea another time?”
