    I was still fuming and I couldn’t focus on anything but that smug son of a bi**h who thinks I’ll just put up


    with his demands. I abandoned putting my clothes away and found myptop to get some work done.


    “Arrogant p*ick demanding I only work for him,” I mumbled as I checked my email.


    “Isn’t he perfect,” my wolf purred? She’s been in a love-sick haze since sheid eyes on Alpha ke.


    “Did you forget we were already f**ked over by an alpha? And he even turned out to be our mate. I’m


    not going to give myself to another alpha, especially one who tried tomand us. We have more


    important things, like Channing.” I scolded her.


    “Fine, but when he goes off to college I deserve a good f*ck,’ she huffed before retreating. I understand


    her sexual frustration but I already gave myself to someone and he betrayed me. I could never fall for


    that again. I thought I loved my mate, and I don’t think I’d ever be able to hand over that amount of


    control to anyone ever again.


    I was deep into Mr. Dillinger’s finances when Channing walked into the kitchen. I was working at the


    kitchen ind, not ready to set anything up. I didn’t want to be here and the thought of organizing my


    life to stay for two months was killing me.


    “All done?” He asked me, opening the fridge.


    “I haven’t even started. I need to finish this before Mr. ke loses his

    s*it.” I told him with a sigh.


    “You really don’t like alphas, huh?” He asked while pulling out things to make a sandwich. It was nice


    for whoever set this ce up for us to have everything stocked so I wouldn’t have to go grocery


    shopping yet.


    “I don’t like being told what I can and can’t do in my time. He also demanded I submit,” I told my son,


    crossing my arms over my chest.


    “Well, this should be fun to watch,” he chuckled.


    “I’m sorry Channing. I know this isn’t your grudge to carry.” My voice was sympathetic. My son after all


    was an alpha.


    “Don’t be, Mom. A please and thank you would have gone a long way. He didn’t have to speak to you


    like that.” He said and I nodded. He slid a te with a sandwich over to me before getting two cold


    cans of soda from the fridge.


    “You are the best, and if he wants the best, he better be willing to give you the same respect he is


    demanding from you. You’re a wolf, but you are a Luna, his equal.” I smiled as his words warmed my


    heart.


    “Let’s keep that between us,”


    “I won’t tell a soul,” he said,ing around the counter. He ced down one of the sodas and kissed


    my cheek.


    “I’m all unpacked. Just going to eat and get ready for bed,” he told me as he gathered his te and


    drink.


    “Thank you for the sandwich. Good night, sweetie. I love you,” I called out as he left the kitchen.


    “Love you too. Don’t stay up toote,” he called back and I chuckled. Sometimes I think he forgets that


    I’m the parent.

    It didn’t take me long to track the money and the ounts it was being sent to. I forwarded all the


    information to Mr. Miller and Mr. Dillinger. Honestly, anyone in the firm could have handled this matter


    but I understand he wanted discretion. Mr. Dillinger is a very rich, powerful man. If news got out of his


    not only cheating but stealing from him, it would hurt his reputation. He knows I would never divulge


    information about my clients.


    After the email was sent, I cleaned up the kitchen before going to my room. This house was beautiful.


    There were three bedrooms upstairs, all with their own bathrooms. I took the bedroom that looked out


    at theke to the back of the house. There was also a window seat to enjoy the view.


    I groaned when I looked around at all the unpacked suitcases. I didn’t want to do anything but look out


    the window and pretend I wasn’t in a pack. Sighing, I went to check on Channing. He was sound


    asleep. Then when I got back to my room, I started to unpack. As much as I hated the idea, I needed to


    make this ce feel like home.


    The moon was almost full as it hung above theke. After everything was put away, I changed into an


    oversized shirt and a pair of shorts. After climbing into bed, I stared at the ceiling.


    “Only two months and we can head back to our normal lives.” I breathed out into my dark and empty


    room.


    “Do you honestly believe that?” Lily asked.


    “Is there something that you know that I don’t?” I questioned my wolf and she let out a whimper.


    “We’ve been through enough, Lily. I’ve worked too hard for my normal life to let it go without a fight.


    And Channing has so much going on in his senior year. We have to get back for his sake, not just oùrs.


    We just have to make sure no one finds out you’re a Luna wolf. I didn’t need
