| paused for a moment, considering whether to respond. In the end, | decided he wasn’t worth my breath and
continued walking.
The sunlight was blinding as | stepped outside, and | had to shield my eyes. My heart was pounding with
anticipation. Would Noah be waiting for me? Despite everything, | couldn't help but feel a flutter of excitement at
the thought.
But as my eyes adjusted, | realized it wasn’t Noah waiting by the car. It was Drake. Viona was with him.
For a moment, just a moment, disappointment hit me. Noah had promised... | supposed, in all of my nostalgic
lovesickness, that | had thought he really would cfor me. My fingers tightened around the seashell, the one
that he had clearly fashioned into a necklace for himself. If what he had said was true, then why wasn’t he here?

| returned the embrace, burying my face in my friend's shoulder. Now was not the tfor disappointment. My
friends had cfor me, and that was all that mattered.
“Are you okay?” Drake asked, joining us and placing a hand on my shoulder. “Did they hurt you?”
| shook my head and pulled back to look at my friends. “I'm fine. Just... confused. How did you getout?”
Drake's expression turned sheepish. “I may have threatened to invade Darkmoon if they didn’t release you.
Being the Luna Queen's favorite nephew has its perks sometimes.”
Viona snorted. “More like only nephew.”
| couldn’t help but laugh. “You didn’t.”
“I did,” Drake grinned. “David folded pretty quickly after that.”
As we walked to the car, | glanced once more down at the seashell necklace in my palm. Noah didn’t come... But
then it hit me. | inhaled sharply and stopped in my tracks. “What day is it?”
“It’s Saturday,” Viona replied, opening the car door for me.
| froze, a chill running down my spine. “Is the wedding still on? Zoe and Noah's wedding. Was it canceled?”
Drake and Viona exchanged puzzled glances. “I haven't heard anything about it being canceled,” Viona said
slowly. “In fact, it should be starting right about now.”
“I'm going,” | said, closing my fingers around the seashell.
Drake raised an eyebrow. “You probably shouldn’t bother going, Hannah. It’s not worth it. Besides, you'll need
tto change and all that...”
| stood there for a moment, my mind racing. Noah's words from earlier echoed in my head: “You are my mate,
Hannah. Not Zoe. You are my eternal moonlight, and | am a fool for not remembering you. But | remember now,
and | love you. | always have. | will make things right.”

If what he said was true... if Zoe had really manipulated him all this time...
“I don’t need to change. Just taketo Nightcrest,” | said, sliding into the back seat. “Immediately.”
Drake and Viona's eyes widened in unison. “What? Hannah, you can’t be serious,” Viona said. “After everything
that’s happened... And you're still in your robe!”
“I've never been more serious in my life.” | buckled my seatbelt and shot my friends an imploring look. Please. |
need to do this.” | pulled my shoulders back and added, “That's an order.”
Viona and Drake studied my face for a long moment, then exchanged another confused glance. Finally, Drake
shrugged and slipped into the driver's seat. “Alright. As you wish, Alpha.”
As we pulled out of the parking lot, | clutched the seashell tightly in my hand. My mind was made up. If there
was even a chance that Noah was telling the truth, | had to know. | had to see for myself.
And if Zoe had sunk her claws into his mind again, just as | suspected...
Well, then we had a wedding to crash.
