I was completely drained when the carriage finally rolled into White Pack. The night guards stiffened at the sight of such a grand ride and moved closer to check identities.

When they saw it was me, recognition lit their faces and they quickly stepped aside, letting the coachman Lycannar had assigned wheel us through the gates.

When the carriage stopped, I couldn’t bring myself to get out right away. It was… soothing in here. Annoyingly lovely. I could feel myself getting addicted to it, though I knew I shouldn’t.

“My lady, are you okay?” Blue’s gentle voice came from beside me, making me pause.

I turned to look at her in silence. She is beautiful, sweet, with that innocent face that made me uneasy. It wasn’t her fault, but… this was wrong.

“You should go back to the Lycan Kingdom. I’m fine. I don’t need a maid. I barely do anything anyway. You should go.”

Blue blinked, and I waited, expecting her to accept the escape. Instead, she lowered her head instantly.

“My lady, do I annoy you? Please don’t send me back. His Majesty will have my neck before I can explain anything to him.”

“Ugh.” I groaned, finally accepting my fate. I was the fool who had caught the King’s eyes.

I stepped down from the carriage, brushing off Blue’s attempt to help me. The door of the Dusk family

so hard I took a step back, half afraid she

house suddenly burst open, and Dessyn rushed out, chest heaving

might collapse.

“I know you’re worried about me and…

“My gods.” She shoved past me, eyes locked on the carriage. “Zephyr, this… this carriage is one of its kind! Where did you get it?”

Wait, she isn’t worried about… gods.

“Lycannar gave it to me,” I said simply.

She froze and slowly turned to me.

“What?”

“It’s a gift… for accepting his proposal.”

“What?!” she shrieked, loud enough that the night guards who had been whispering started inching closer to eavesdrop.

“Lower your voice,” I hissed, but she was trembling just like she had the night Lycannar came to dinner.

“My gods. Zephyr, this is huge and…” She stopped mid–fret when she noticed Blue, who bowed politely.

“Who… who is she?”

“I am Blue, my lady’s personal maid,” Blue answered before I could.

Dessyn went pale.

“His Majesty gave you a personal maid?”

“I don’t know what he’s thinking. I doubt he even realizes I’m squatting here for…”

“Squatting?” she cut in with a frown. “Zephyr, this house is your home too.”

I sighed.

“But we don’t have enough room for a maid… or a coachman.”

“Hello,” I murmured. “Can I… come in?”

I swallowed hard. Was he… worshipping me in his own way?

I turned back to him, my heart pounding.

“Moon, I…”

“Are you happy?” His quiet question cut through my words.

I froze.

“Are you happy, Zephyr?” he asked again, softer this time. “Because if you are, then I don’t need an explanation. As long as you’re happy and safe.”

My heart sank. Lycannar was perfect if I ignored his beastly temper when he kissed or held me..If I gave him what he wanted, he’d be the best choice.

“I’m happy, Moon,” I whispered.

He swallowed, nodded once.

“Then I’m fine too.”

Silence weighed between us until I sighed.

“I’m tired. I’ll get some sleep.”

“Good night.”

I left, closing the door behind me only to stop cold in the hallway when I heard soft, muffled sobs from inside. He was… crying.

I stood there, helpless, until Dessyn appeared with a smile.

“Come on. You have to tell me everything,” she said, tugging me away from Moon’s chamber.
