“But only if we'd truly be equals, Noah,” | added firmly. | won't be relegated to ‘Luna’ duties, hosting charity
events and serving as skind of trophy wife!
| frowned, the thought turning my stomach. “Not that there's anything wrong with being a Luna,” | amended
quickly. “It's a respected position, and | admire those who choose that path, but it’s just... it's not me.”
Noah's expression softened, his serious gaze never leaving mine. “I know, Hannah,” he said quietly. “And |
wouldn't expect you to change for me. You're meant to be an Alpha-you possess the gene. | wouldn't want you
to be anything less.”
A soft laugh escaped my lips, the tension in my chest easing just a little. But before | could say anything else,
Noah grinned, that familiar mischievous spark returning to his eyes. “Besides,” he said, leaning in closer, “you
were always pretty terrible at being a Luna.”
| gasped, feigning outrage as | smacked his arm. “I was not!”

Noah's laughter filled the air, rich and warm, and for a moment, everything felt light again.
But then, he swam up between his legs and his hands found their way to my face, cupping my cheeks as he
gently brushed a strand of wet hair from my eyes. His fingers lingered there, tracing the curve of my jaw, and
when his gaze met mine, it was so intense, so full of emotion, that | could hardly breathe when i looked at him.
“I want you to be happy, Hannah,” he said, his voice low, serious. “Would you really be interested in pursuing
this? Combining Silvermoon and Nightcrest, becoming the first Alpha/Alpha couple?”
“Hypothetically?” | whispered.
Noah didn’t respond to that. Just kept looking atwith those forest eyes.
My heart stuttered in my chest. | wrapped my arms around his neck, letting myself sink into his embrace as |
mulled over the enormity of what he was asking.
“I... would,” I whispered after a few moments. “But it's not something we could just... decide on our own. The
Alpha Council would need to approve it. And that could take months. Maybe even years.”
| pulled back slightly, searching his face. “Are you really willing to go through all of that? To fight the Council,
possibly letting it drag on until Melody is old enough to remember the strain of it all?”
Noah's smile widened, that all-too-familiar glint returning to his gaze. “What if | told you it would only take six
months?” His voice was teasing again, that splayful edge creeping back in. “And what if | told you... those
six months were already up?”
| stared at him, incredulous. “You're joking. Again,” | laughed, shoving him away from me. | sank down so the
bubbles cup to my chin and said, “If that were true, I'd say yes in a heartbeat. But con, Noah. Stop
messing with me.”
But Noah didn’t laugh. His expression suddenly turned more serious than I'd seen it all day, the playful glimmer
in his eyes replaced with something far more... intense.
“You... You are joking, right?” | whispered, sitting up a little straighter. “Right, Noah?”

Noah didn’t answer. Instead, he climbed out of the hot tub, water cascading off his nude body as he strode
across the deck with purpose. | turned and watched, my confusion growing, until he returned with a small bundle
of papers in his hand.
“What's that?” | asked, my voice trembling.
Without a word, Noah handedthe bundle. “See for yourself. Then tellif I'm messing with you or
not.”
The moment my eyes landed on the familiar seal of the Alpha Council, my breath caught in my throat. My hands
shook as | flipped to the first page, the words blurring in front of my eyes.
“Alpha Noah and Alpha Hannah's Appeal for Equal Leadership,” the document's title read.
| felt my stomach turn to air as | saw the green stamp below it. Slowly, | lifted my tear-filled gaze to meet
Noah's, and he nodded, his jaw set hard.
“It's already been approved, Hannah,” he whispered. “All we have to do is sign it.”
