Eight years. That was how long Evelyn gave everything she had to a pack that was never fully hers and a mate bond that was never fully real. She was Luna by arrangement, not by love, but she showed up every single day like it was both. Then Raphael died. And his son Albert stood before the whole pack and pointed a finger at her. She left with nothing except her dignity and a quiet, burning question that nobody else was asking: what if Raphael did not actually die? One year later, Evelyn is the sharpest attorney at the most powerful law firm in the city. She does not cry in meetings. She wins every case she takes. She has built a new life from scratch, and it is good. Then a new client file lands on her desk. The name on it stops her breathing. R. Goldmane. Private Security Consultation. She walks into the conference room. He stands up. He says her name. She picks up her files, sits down, opens the folder, and asks him what service his company requires. She does not look at him for three full minutes. Because Evelyn has a plan. She has had one for a year. And the man who just walked back into her life is the last piece of it. But so is the truth about who actually killed him.
