Life here at Royal Pack isn’t that bad. No one looks down on me, and best of all, no one hits me. What makes it even better is that I can be with my (bary for real and enjoy her company. I’m still awkward and unsure about my so–called “real parents,” but they aren’t mean, either,

Learning that I have two little siblings from them makes me even more nervous. Yet, when I heard the news, my heart pounded in my chest as if I were excited. Rather than feeling annoyed or scared like I thought I would, I was happy. I didn’t show it, but I truly was.

“You’ll get your memories back in time,” Ebony reassured me days ago after hearing the news and seeing my confusion. “I’ll help remind you of good times when we were little! You loved your parents a lot and even begged for a baby sibling to protect.”

I know Ebony would never lie to reason

to hate Dahlia and her demon child. Tristian is merely a fool who can’t think for himself, but I still hate

the only one I can completely trust without question. It just feels so surreal to me. I do hope! remember

something soon. It will give me even

him.

I sit next to Ebony now while I help her with her homework. While no one taught me formally, aside from Alpha training with Gamma Grayson, I spent most of my days in my room trying to lay low, so I used lesson books to teach myself. Whether or not I’m any good, I have no idea.

No one here has started me on any lessons yet since I’m still recovering from my injuries, and they’d rather have me be a kid than be worked to death, guess. Because of my injuries and the upcoming war, I haven’t been taken to Crimson Moon Pack yet. I think it’s also because I don’t feel comfortable with the Alpha and Luna as my parents yet.

“Hey, Sky! Do you wanna go play outside when I’m done?” Ebony asks curiously. “We can throw frisbees! Or just people–watch. I don’t mind at all, but! think some sunshine will be fun, right?”

I blink and look at my best friend. She looks

cute with her wide black eyes staring at me like that. She’s such a kid… “Sure… I don’t mind. As long as it’s just you and me, I’ll be happy,” I murmur. “It’s nice… hanging out with you in the real world.”

Ebony tilts her head and smiles. “Right? I can see and talk to you again! I missed your scent too,” she says, then looks back at her paper. “It was weird being older in our dreams. You’re going to grow up to be a handsome guy!”

I feel my face get warm and look to the side. “Same here… though you’re going to be pretty… beautiful even. Way better than any girls I’ve seen around, anyway,” I agree but find myself rambling on. Why do I feel nervous now? “And when the moonlight hits you… your hair and eyes look purple like that…”

I trail off when I notice Ebony is too focused on her homework. Her face is red, and so are her eartips. Did I embarrass her? Jaden stirs in my mind and laughs faintly. ‘You complimented our mate and flattered her. That’s all.‘

Is that a bad thing? As I watch Ebony, I feel aw

of calmness and happiness. Knowing Ebony is my mate makes me happy. That means we will spend

the rest of our lives together as best friends. I can picture it now…

“Skylar.” Xander’s voice makes me jump, and I turn to face him, my face flushing. The warmth in his eyes almost makes me forget that he’s preparing for war. “You have a few visitors who wish to see you.” I tense, making him chuckle, “You’ll want to see them too. Don’t worry… no one can hurt you here.”

I swallow hard and stand up. “Can Ebony come with me?” I ask as Ebony stands as well and takes my hand. Xander looks between us and chuckles in amusement. “I’ll feel safer if she does,” I add, squeezing Ebony’s hand tightly.

“Of course, she can. She is your lifeline and mate, after all.” I have a feeling my face is beet red. My neck feels hot too. “Just follow me, and I’ll take you to them,” Xander adds, then turns to walk off. As Ebony and I follow him, my stomach is in knots.

Xander wouldn’t lead me into a trap, but I’m always on alert. Who knows when someone who seems trustworthy will st what happened with Dahlia’s parents when I begged them for help. They pretended to love me and be on my side but th

As I step outside, familiar scents hit my nose–not ones that I’m afraid of. “It’s good to see you again, pup.” My eyes widen as I spot Grayson standing there with Rina, their baby, and Moonlight/Pack’s Omegas all standing in front of me. “I’m glad you’re okay,” Grayson smiles warmly.

I let go of Ebony’s hand and rush over to him. “Grayson!” I hug him, and he hugs me back. “It’s so good to see you again!” I feel so overjoyed to see them

Grayson smiles and shakes his head. “Not at all, Keith… no, Skylar,” he corrects himself. “The Alpha King told us that my family, the Omegas, andicunts is come here, as we were the only ones on your side. I led the Omegas here to seek refuge, as they won’t survive a war”

Hearing my fake name makes my skin crawl, but I ignore it. I hug Grayson happily and relax. The only people who were on my side viere going to be salat I don’t have to worry about any of them getting hurt!

The tension in the air catches me off guard. Daisy’s body is tense, but her eyes are cold, which scares me. I stand between them and hold out my arma “Grayson is a good guy!” I say firmly. “He and Rina are the only ones who stood up for me! So they’re good!”

Grayson places a hand on my shoulder. “It’s okay, pup,” he murmurs. “I wronged her in the past. It’s natural for her to be unhappy to see me.” He dips his head respectfully to her. “Greetings, Luna Daisy. It’s good to see you in good health.”

Daisy clenches her fists. “Thanks… I guess,” she mutters. “So… I guess you’re proof that people can change, huh? You used to be terrible back in the day…. a party boy willing to drug others so that you could have a good time.”
