Keep doing what you’re doing, or maybe more accurately in your case, what you’re not doing, so that we can continue to have good days for both you and your baby, okay?”I nod enthusiastically now.“Okay.” Dr. Zorinski takes a step back t
EvelynAlexander is sitting between me and Emma, holding both our hands when Dr. Zorinski returns. She smiles at the sight of us, making her way over.“How are they?” I ask. “The injured werewolves in the dungeon. I assume that’s where you’ve been?”She glances at Alexander. “What happened to not up

AlexanderIt’s breaking my heart to watch Evelyn’s sadness. Ever since she admitted to feeling jealous of my search for my true Luna, I’ve started to think of her less like my shikra and more like a partner.So I’m relieved and nervous when my guards finally find the witch.It turns out I was right.
“Even information?” she asks.She has been exiled from the palace for a month. Of course, I didn’t understand how dangerous that exile might be for a lycan in this current political climate.But maybe she discovered information that might be important to me about the rebel werewolves.I remain silen
