As Anders finishes his speech, his voice breaking, he stands to light the pyre holding my physical body. | walk to Clint, putting my hand on his shoulder, Andra walks beside his wheelchair and leans against him. both of us lending him what strength we can.

As the fire burns, everyone begins to move toward the packhouse. They will have a celebration of my life. That is what we do in our pack, we celebrate the life of the ones we've lost. As | look down, | can see that Clint will not be celebrating today. He stays, watching my body burn, long after everyone else has gone.

Calista comes to take Cara and tries to get Clint to ctoo, but he just shakes his head. | stay with Clint. “You can do this, my love. You're so strong, | know you can do this.” | say to him, knowing he can’t

hear me.

As we stand here, Alpha Christopher comes to stand beside Clint. “I know what you’re feeling. And | know you want nothing more than to lay down and hope the Moon Goddess takes you to join your mate. But you have to live for your daughter. She needs you.”

“How?” Clint whispers, his voice sounding rough and raw.

“Everyday when you wake up, you get out of bed. Then you shower. Then you get your daughter up, make sure she’s fed and get her off to school. Then you do it again in reverse in the evening when she comes home. Eventually, you don’t have to fight to do each step, you just start going through the motions. And then you start filling in the twhen she’s gone. At least, that’s what | did. You'll never get over it, never

get over her, but it does get easier with time.”

As the two of them stand together, watching the pyre burn. | turn to find my daughter. When | do, | see her sitting in a chair. Someone, probably Calista has brought her sfood, but she’s not eating. When no one is looking, she ducks away and climbs the stairs to our room. The room has been re-arranged. The bed is gone and so are most of our belongings. I’m guessing they had to move Clint to the first floor

since he couldn’t get upstairs any longer.

| watch as she pulls a blanket from the closet and wraps it around herself. It’s the blanket that | had her wrapped in when | took her to the safe room. She takes a deep breath, sniffing my scent on the blanket

as tears slide down her cheeks.

Behind me. | hear a noise and turn to see Liam. He doesn’t say anything, he just goes and sits beside Lily, wrapping his arm around her and holding her while she cries.

When she finally pulls away, she looks up at him. “I’m sorry, Alpha. | shouldn’t be crying on you like this.” “How about, we make this our little secret? | won't tell, if you won’t tell. Okay?”

My heart clenches as | hear my words to Liam all those years ago repeated to my daughter.

She nods, leaning against him as the tears start again. “My mommy is dead.”

“| know. She was my friend. I’m going to miss her.” He rocks her back and forth as she cries.

“You know, | lost my mom when | was about your age.” He tells her.

She looks up at him, her emerald eyes shining through her tears. “You did?”

“| did. And you know what helped me?”

She shakes her head at him.

“Your mom. She gaveher number and toldto call her anyt| needed to talk. And you know what? She always answered when | called.”

“| don’t have anyone to call.” My sweet girl says tearfully.

“Sure you do. You have me. I'll be your friend and any tyou need to talk, no matter what tit is, you call me, and I'll answer. Even if you just need to cry or tellabout your day. Whatever it is, I'll always

be here for you Cara.”

| watch as he gets up and finds a pen and paper, writing his number down for Cara. “You have a phone. right?”

“Yes, there is one in our room.”

“Okay, then anytime, Cara. | mean it. And, if you need to get out, Cyran can take you for a run. He’d be happy to carry you or run with you, if you ever want to go.”
