It had been a month since my family and I moved to the Nightfall Pack. Life had completely changed since the night we lost the war. 

Thanks to Kane allowing us to stay in his pack, we at least had a roof over our heads and didn’t have to worry about being homeless. For that, I couldn’t call him a monster. What if he hadn’t taken us in? What if we’d been forced to live as rogues? Where would my parents have gone then? 

But when it came to my children, Kane was the coldest, most ruthless man I had ever known. He forbade me from seeing them. Strict orders were given to the guards to stop me if I came anywhere near the pack house. 

I’d tried countless times to sneak over, just to catch a glimpse of my babies, but every attempt ended in rejection. Each time, I left more disappointed than before. 

What hurt even more was that Kane’s mother, someone I once thought I could turn to, ignored my calls for help. I couldn’t figure out why she was acting this way. It reminded me of how distant and dismissive she’d been when I first married her son. 

“Mommy, are you okay?” my son Leo asked, his voice full of concern. 

I was talking to him and Luna through a video call. Kane had given them a phone and a tablet to play with. As soon as they got them, the first thing they did was connect to Wi–Fi and call me. 

That was my only source of comfort these days–the phone calls. They gave me just enough hope to keep going, though I avoided the pack house entirely, terrified that Kane might take the devices away if he caught wind of our conversations. 

“I’m fine, my baby. Have you both had breakfast yet?” I asked. 

Luna shook her head, pouting. “No, I don’t want to.” 

“Why not?” 

“That aunt always brings us our meals. We don’t like her.” 

My heart sank at her words. I knew she was talking about Ruby. Anger bubbled up inside me. Kane wanted Ruby to play mother to my children? He could have at least let me stay with them if he cared about their happiness. 

“She even told us to call her ‘Mom‘ in front of Dad,” Luna blurted out, her little voice full of frustration. 

I clenched my jaw, my blood boiling. “Don’t call her Mom. You only have one mom, and that’s me. Do you understand?” 

Both Leo and Luna nodded quickly, their faces serious. 

I rubbed my temple and let out a shaky breath, trying to keep my emotions in check. Being stuck in this position, powerless, was tearing me apart. I was angry all the time, and it wasn’t fair to my kids. 

“My babies, don’t worry. Everything will be-” 

Leo cut me off suddenly. “Mommy, someone’s coming. We’ll call you later.”
