Tonight has been a somber event, more heartbreaking than I had expected. Maybe it's because I'm not sure that my pack would grieve this much for me if I were to pass, or maybe it's because my mate is lying unconscious in Hunter's pack hospital that I'm feeling so wrung out emotionally.
After the pyres are lit, everyone stands quietly for a long time, lost in their own thoughts, possibly their own prayers to the Moon Goddess to watch over their Alpha and Luna who they adored.

"Luna Amy and I would sit in here every day. She was so kind to me," she says, grabbing some tissues and taking a seat. "I know it's not the same for her as it was for me, but I had hoped that she would survive the loss of her mate. I think I feel lonelier now that I did with Elias died."
I give her a few moments to collect herself. When she looks at me, her gaze is direct and full of intelligence. I'm guessing she has an idea of why I wanted to speak to her.
