Menu Selene The days at Nightfall Pack were starting to become routine as I tried to settle in.
True to my promise, I visited Garrett every day, caring for him as any daughter would. Diana couldnât stop praising me, calling me a blessing to their family.
If only I could tell her that Iâd found my own family too â they were the real blessing in my life.
Today marked the end of the week. Tomorrow would be crucial â the day Garrett needed the cure for his wolf.
Since Nathan needed to check on Garrettâs condition, we all headed to the pack hospital.
âIâm impressed by how well heâs recovering,â Nathan commented to Diana.
Diana beamed, turning to me. âItâs all thanks to her. Sheâs been managing his medications, making sure he eats well. Garrettâs been so happy this past week because of her.â
I gave her a modest smile, lowering my gaze.
From the corner of my eye, I noticed Kane standing at a distance. He was here because of his fatherâs treatment, but throughout his motherâs praise of me, his eyes never left my face. I ignored him â thankfully, we hadnât crossed paths since Iâd left the pack house, which suited me just fine.
âSelene,â Nathanâs voice drew my attention. âEverything depends on you now. Are you certain you can provide the cure?â
I lifted my head, nodding confidently. âYes. Youâll have it tomorrow morning.â
âThank you, my child,â Garrett said warmly.
When I turned, I caught Kaneâs skeptical gaze. He was probably wondering how Iâd manage it, but I had my ways.
After spending some time with Kaneâs parents, I left for the Moonridge Resort & Hotel where I was staying. Once in my room, I called my brother.
âWhere are you?â Magnusâs voice came through clear.
I frowned. âMagnus, you know Iâm at Nightfall Pack.â
âI mean specifically where in Nightfall Pack.â
Assuming he needed the location for delivering the cure, I explained. The cure itself was quite a story â a gift from the Ravencrest Packâs Alpha to Magnus months ago. Though Magnus wasnât wellâversed in medicine, heâd requested it knowing Iâd studied under Dr. Grayson Vale, who created it. Iâd kept it safe since then, studying its composition out of professional interest.
âIâm at the Moonridge Resort & Hotel,â I replied.
âOkay, Iâm on my way,â he said before hanging up.
My eyes widened in shock. This wasnât the plan â he was supposed to send someone with the cure, not come himself. Worried about a potential confrontation between him and Kane, I rushed to the lobby.
Even my driver was surprised by the news of Magnusâs arrival. I waited anxiously for an hour, watching 12:12 57.0%
Menu Magnus stepped out, his presence commanding as always â fitting for a head Alpha. Other guests couldnât help but stare.
The moment he saw me, his stern expression melted into a warm smile.
I hugged him tightly. âMagnus, I missed you.â
He kissed the top of my head. âMissed you too, Selene.â
Pulling back, I laughed. âStop being so soft. Why did you come yourself when I told you to send someone?â
