Ethan's POV These few days here, I keep noticing the same thing, and I can't stop noticing it. Sora's got a life here. A title. Her own kid. Bobby, who'd do anything for her. Selene backing her up. She put all of it together without me, and none of it needs me to keep going. She doesn't need me. Simple as that. I stand outside and watch the place. Watch how people treat her. This afternoon she walked across the yard and a commander nodded to her. Selene looked at her like she was family. Even the Lycan King talks to her like she belongs in the room. And she just takes it, like it's normal, like she's used to it now. Back home she was the wolfless Luna my mother looked down on. Here people straighten up when she walks past. She did that herself. Nobody handed it to her. Least of all
