One night, not long after Cara’s 5th birthday, I'm in our room, cleaning up while Donovan takes Cara for a run.
Suddenly, | feel a presence and | whip around, ready to fight, my claws coming out. As soon as | see the woman,
| gasp and my claws recede.
She’s beautiful, almost glowing. She's wearing a floor-length white dress. She’s barefoot and her hair falls long
and straight down her back and over her arms.
“Mother.” Andra says, bowing our head in submission.
“Hello, my child. | see you recognize me.”
“Are...are you the Moon Goddess?” | ask, not sure that I'm seeing what | think I'm seeing.
She smiles atkindly. “Yes, but you may callSelene.” That seems wildly inappropriate.
“What are you doing here?” | ask her.
“I've cto speak to you. Come, sit with me.” She says as she walks to our couch and sits down,
patting the seat beside her.
1 go to her and sit. When I do, she reaches out and caresses my hair, similar to how I do with Cara. “

You've been such a good Guardian for me. You have servedwell. You have protected your pack, your
Luna and your future Alpha. You have even been a loving influence on one of my children that lost both
their parents, although only one has joined me.”
“You mean Liam?”
She smiles again. “Of course.”
| shrug. “Anyone would have done the same.”
She is shaking her head before | finish my sentence. “No.”
She is quiet for a moment. “Why are you here?” | ask. Her presence feels ominious.
“I wanted to warn you. You have been such a great child of mine, | felt that I should tell you what is
coming.”
My hand flies to my mouth. “Cara?”
“Cara will live a long and beautiful life. She will mate with an Alpha and becLuna of her pack.”
“Which Alpha?” | ask, momentarily distracted by the knowledge that my daughter will one day be a Luna.
“Can’t you guess? You more or less prophesied it before they were born.”
“Rik.” | say and the moment | say it, | know it’s true.
“He will be a good mate to her, although, he will have to win her over. They will have a long, happy life
together,”
| smile, thinking of my daughter's future and how excited | am to see her one day becLuna of our
pack. But then my smile fades.
“You haven't answered my question. What have you cto tell me?”
“I know how much you love your mate. And | gave you as many years as | could, but it’s tfor another
Guardian to take over, tfor another to rise. I'm afraid Clint’s tis over.”
| feel like someone just punchedin the gut. No, it feels like someone just stabbedin the gut and began
ripping my insides out. The thought of a life without my mate is incomprehensible to me. | know I can’t live
without him. I'm not strong enough.
But he is. He is strong enough to live without me. He is strong enough to survive for our daughter. I've seen
Alpha Christopher do it. It was hard at first, but over tit's gotten easier for him. | know Clint could do it. And
he deserves it. He deserves to live.

“No. Takeinstead. | can’t survive without my mate. He is my everything. Please. If I've been a good. daughter
to you, do this for me. Let him live. Takein his place. Clint is the strongest person | know. He can survive my
death, but I will never survive his.”
Selene looks ata moment. “The wolf that was to take Donovan's place is set to be a Guardian. If they don’t
get the Guardian spirit now, the child will have to wait to get her wolf.” | barely register that she says her,
instead of him. That's not important, although it’s odd.
“But she will get her wolf, right, just later?”
She looks thoughtful for a moment. “Yes, she will.”
“Then that’s fine. She won't have to live without a wolf forever.” Lots of people get their wolves late, it's not a
big deal.
“And the wolf that was meant to get your spirit later in life, will get theirs early.” She says.
“That's okay. I'm sure her family will help her, right?”
“Yes, they will help her.”
“Please, say you will spare him. He deserves to live. He is the most amazing mate, the most amazing father
anyone could ever want. He's been exactly the person he promisedhe would be and so much more. He's
been a perfect Guardian, watching over Anders since he was 10 years old. I've only been a Guardian for 11
years. He's been doing it for almost 20 years. Please Selene. | would do anything to save my mate. Please. He
deserves to live.”
