“Between Jackson, Alexander, my dad… my world has been flipped and twisted in so many ways… and then there’s whatever the hell Lian is hiding, and then you and the whispers. It’s all just…

confusing. And somewhere in all that mess, I stopped trusting myself, and then I stopped trusting the people around me.”

Lily nodded.

“Remember what I said about the shadows of the past,” she said. “Memories get twisted and confused.”

Selene nodded.

“You have faced many challenges this year, but you have overcome them. You are strong and capable. But, more changes and hard truths are coming your way. Even now, there is a truth speeding toward you that you might not be ready for. It might make things difficult for you to understand your role. But it won’t change who you are.”

“What truth?” Selene asked.

“You know that if I could tell you, I would,” Lily said.

Selene sighed.

“Selene, figure out who you are and want to be. And then accept her,” Lily said. “She’s still waiting.”

“Do you mean my Luna?” Selene asked, but she was all alone.

“I feel better,” Selene sighed, leaning back against his chest.

“Really?” Alexander asked, leaning forward to rest his chin on her shoulder.

“Yes,” she smiled. “Obviously, I would prefer to just know all the answers, and poof, my Luna loves me, we accept each other, and all is well in the world. But I feel like… I’ve made progress?”

Alexander chuckled.

“You have, Selene,” he whispered, nuzzling against her throat, “otherwise I wouldn’t be able to do this.”

Selene smiled as his warm breath danced along her skin and the rough prickles of shadow beard tickled her throat.

“When are you going to shave that thing?” she asked.

“When I finish installing the security system,” he replied. “Until then, sleep, food, and all the rest are on a bare minimum.”

“What about this?” Selene asked playfully, stretching her neck for him to have more access. “Is having a telepathic date with me a good use of your time?”

Alexander growled as he kissed her throat, nipping here and there and running his tongue along her soft flesh.

“This… is more than essential to my survival,” he whispered against her skin.

His hands moved down her body, finding a hold on her hips. He squeezed gently. Selene let out a soft moan and arched her back.

Alexander smiled, he kissed along her jaw, and she turned her head, giving him access to her mouth.

He pushed on her hips and turned her around completely in his arms. One hand moved to the soft curve of her back while the other moved up into her loose hair and gently tugged.

Alexander covered her mouth with his own, not bothering to start slow and sweet. He missed her. They had been away from each other for over a week, and in that time, he hadn’t even been able to feel her through their bond.

He needed her, craved her. He never knew he could want someone, love someone so much. It was crazy, intense. It was dangerous.

A part of him genuinely feared that he would stop breathing without her in his life.

Selene had been trying to find herself. To recover the parts of her that she had lost during all the turmoil of their life together.

After their conversation about all that she was holding in, Alexander had struggled with his own fears.

Fear that he was the reason for all she suffered. That their relationship had been the catalyst for everything that caused her to lose herself in the first place.

Alexander wrapped his arms around her tighter, pulling her body flush against his own and pressing his desire against her without reservation. He needed her to know what she meant to him and how much he loved her.

He wanted her to understand that he would always be there for her, in whatever way she needed him.

Selene put her hand on his chest, pushing him gently. He wanted to hold on to her, but he relented.

She gasped for air and took a step back.

Alexander panted, but his eyes never left her.

She looked up and into his eyes. They were dark with desire, but she also saw what was hidden behind the physical want. She saw the fear he was trying to hide.

Selene reached her hand up to his cheek. She smiled and kissed him gently.

“Hey,” she whispered. “Stop.”

Alexander looked away.

“I’m sorry,” he whispered, pulling away from her.

“No,” she laughed. Pulling him back to her. “Don’t stop this.”

She bit her lower lip and pressed her body to him suggestively.

“Stop this,” she smiled, touching his forehead with her fingertip. “Stop making yourself crazy.”

Alexander sighed.

“I love you,” he whispered.

“I love you, too,” she smiled. “And you and I are not the problems. Us is the only part of my life that makes absolute sense.”

Alexander smiled and hugged her.

Selene burrowed herself into his chest, and he held her tighter.

“I have a lot to figure out, to change,” she said. “But you are not part of that. You are perfect.”

“Perfect?” he questioned with a raised brow.

“Well,” she laughed. “Not perfect. You do squeeze the toothpaste at the center of the tube. And you leave wet towels on the bed after you shower.”

Alexander laughed.

“And you’re overprotective and worry too much,” she continued.

“Ok, I get it!” he laughed again.

“But you are the man I love, and I can fix the toothpaste and throw the towel at you,” she said. “But without you, I would feel empty.”

Alexander smiled and looked down at his wife. He lifted her chin, placing a gentle kiss against her lips.

“Cold and hard. That is the kind of man most wolves have known me as,” he said. “But ever since you came into my life, I have been someone new, someone better.”

Selene smiled.

“I don’t want a life without you, Selene, never again.”

“That is not something you need to worry about,” she smiled. “You’re stuck with me.”

“Good,” he said, closing his mouth over hers.

Selene slipped her arms around his neck as they shared a passionate kiss.

“Now,” she whispered against his lips.

She pulled back just enough to catch her breath and then jumped up and wrapped her legs around his waist.

“Can we please get back to our previously scheduled programming?” she said, leaning forward and biting his lower lip playfully.

Alexander growled and kissed her. He turned them around, and the next thing she knew, she fell back into their bed in the treehouse.

“The treehouse?” she whispered as he pulled off her shirt.

“Mmhmm,” he murmured, pressing his lips to her bare stomach and unfastening her pants.

“Why the treehouse?” she said through soft pants as his lips passed over the sensitive flesh of her lower abdomen, making his way to her hip.

Alexander swirled his tongue against her hip before biting her gently. Selene cried out softly and arched her back.

“Because,” he whispered against her hip. The warmth of his breath tickling along the wet trail left by his tongue sent chills throughout her body. “This is the place we can escape to, the place that will always be just for us.”

Alexander freed her of her pants, leaving her only in her bra and panties. Alexander pulled back onto his knees, towering over her. He peeled off his shirt, revealing a molded muscular frame that always took Selene’s breath away.

“A world of our own,” Selene whispered back.

He smiled down at her, and with painfully slow action, he unbuttoned his jeans. Selene let out a growl of protest, but he only grinned in response. He had no intention of rushing through the time they had together.

Selene felt a needful irritation at his slow movements. But then, an idea struck her.

Alexander moved back off the bed to remove his pants when he suddenly found himself lying down, fully naked.

“What the–” he started.

“I just remembered one really nifty thing about our bond,” Selene whispered. “You see what I want you to see.”

Alexander sat up on his elbows to look for her. His eyes went wide, and his throat went dry when he found her standing before him.

Selene stepped closer, biting her lower lips with a devilish grin.

Her hair was in loose curls, and she wore red high heels with a matching lingerie baby doll dress. Lace and translucent, with a slit down the center.

“Fuck…” Alexander growled hungrily.

By the time they finally said goodnight and pulled away from their bond, they were both exhausted and satiated.

It was the best night of sleep Alexander had had since they arrived in Winter.
