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.
