I made sure to make thane zip it up,  the amazing knocked out event he encountered and me sneaking my way to the lake alone. The threats I made to make sure he doesn't blurt all of this to his asshole of an Alpha. I know what I did was risky but whatever it was I need to find it out on my own. Speaking of that Alpha.

I am looking at the phone every other second and I am getting more and more pissed. Why the Hell do I long to hear his voice? And most importantly, why the Hell he hasn’t called yet? Yesterday he called. Twice. One during breakfast and we practically talked for almost an hour and then he called by the end of the day, here at the office. But today it’s almost lunch time and he hasn’t...

“Luna?” I hear a knock on the door.

“Come in,” I recognize Astrid’s voice.

“Am I interrupting, Luna?”

“No,” I actually smile at her. “Is everything ready for Sonja’s party?”

“Yes, I was thinking if you would...”

“Of course, I will,” I say and get up.

I am their Luna and this is an orphan who lost her father because he defended his pack. The least I can do is be at her birthday party.

“We are what now?" Antiope purrs in delight.

Shit. I did acknowledge myself as Luna. This is bad. And combined with the fact I actually miss Jinyoung for some mysterious reason that is beyond the grasp of reason this is really, really bad.

I walk down the main hall of the pack house, a big, spacious, well-lit area that is filled with people and excited children that run around. There are ribbons hanging and a banner with Sonja’s name one. A table has a big, giant cake and near a thousand more little snacks. The moment I step in, every adult turns to me and bows their head.

Astrid and Thane walk with me through the room and they introduce me to everyone. And they all seem happy that I am there, no hint of judgement in their eyes. The respect and acceptance I get from them is touching. Wish I could stay.

“They like you,” Thane says in my ear.

“You seem surprised,” I hiss.

“Give them time,” he chuckles. “They still don’t know what a pain in the ass you are.”

“Well, I won’t be here for long,” I mutter.

“Don’t let them hear you say that,” Thane comes closer and his look turns serious. “They’d be crashed. Things have changed since you came.”

“Changed?”

“Alpha Jinyoung is more... Well, less Alpha and more Jinyoung.”

I frown and I am ready to ask more convincing myself that it’s not that I care about Jinyoung but to gain more insight to finally free myself but I don’t get the chance.

“Luna!” I hear an excited voice and as I turn, I see a blonde girl run to me.

I drop on my knees and she stands before me. She is pretty, in her light blue dress and she regards me seriously.

“I like your hair,” she says in broken English and caresses my black mane.

“I like yours too,” I smile and put a lock behind her ear.

“You are pretty,” Sonja says.

“You think so?” I smile wider.

“Aha,” she nods.
