I pulled her close, kissing her forehead. “Very soon, sweetheart. Just a few more days.”

On the terrace, I could see Ethan pacing as he spoke on his phone. His shoulders were tense,

his free hand clenched into a fist.

“What’s wrong with Daddy?” Emma whispered, following my gaze.

I forced a smile. “Nothing, darling. He’s just busy with pack business.”

him, keep him focused on our future.

When he returned, his expression was troubled. “I need to go,” he said abruptly.

“But we were supposed to discuss the ceremony details,” I protested, reaching for his arm.

He pulled away. “Tomorrow. I’ll call you tomorrow.”

“Where are you, Lily?” I whispered, my wolf howling with a grief I didn’t understand.

suffered enough – watched as Victoria took everything that should have been ours, as Ethan

neglected our daughter in favor of another man’s child.

“Today, Lily,” I whispered to my daughter’s portrait. “Today we get justice.”

I touched the Memorial Portrait gently before turning away. My phone buzzed with a message

from Lucas: “Are you sure about this?”

I typed back quickly: “More sure than I’ve ever been.”

With a deep breath, I grabbed my keys and walked out the door. My wolf moved with purpose, no longer afraid of the confrontation ahead.

The time for hiding in the shadows was over. Today, I would step into the light and speak the truth, no matter the consequences.

carefully constructed world.
