“I… I was suffering from a binge eating disorder,” she admitted. “And it was beginning to get out of hand. I knew you took those pills to help yourself purge, so I decided to give them a try.”
“But…?” I urged her, knowing that there was more to the story.
Ana sighed. “But… My husband and I were also trying to conceive our second child. My menstrual cycle became erratic, and I found difficulty conceiving even when I had had no issues with my first child. So I had bloodwork done, and they found trace amounts of the contraceptive in my body.”
My eyes widened. “Is that true?” I whispered, pulling my hand back. “So… So you knew all this time?”
The maid nodded hastily, but then leaned closer, gripping my hand tightly. “I didn’t know whether you were aware of the contraceptives, Luna,” she quickly said. “At first, I thought that maybe you did it intentionally. I knew you and Alpha Noah didn’t have the best relationship…”
Her voice trailed off then, and I let out a derisive snort. “That obvious, huh?”
Ana merely shot me a glance before continuing. “Eventually, I just became too afraid to tell you because it would mean having to admit to stealing from you. And for that, I’m sorry.”
“Ana, you can tell me anything. I wouldn’t have held it against you. We’ve known each other for years.”
“Yes, but…” Ana paused, staring at her hands again. “Luna, if I could be candid now-”
“Absolutely. Speak your mind.”
She drew in a deep breath, almost seeming to steel herself, before meeting my gaze. “You weren’t always very kind to me. Only in this past month has it seemed as though you didn’t… hate me.”
“Hate you?” I breathed, momentarily astounded. But then it hit me-all of the times in my past life when I had been cruel to her. All of the snide remarks, the little jabs at her cleaning abilities or her attitude.
I sighed, feeling my shoulders sag. “You’re right. I was a real b****h.”
“Luna, no-”
“No, it’s alright,” I assured her. “I was. But I’m trying not to be anymore.” I paused, wetting my lips with my tongue as my mind raced. Finally, I patted her hand and offered her a warm smile. “Thank you for being honest, Ana. And I hope you know now that if you’re ever struggling with your body image, you’re beautiful -truly.”
Ana blinked rapidly and bit her lower lip, clearly trying to suppress a smile. “Thank you, Luna.”
“It’s the truth,” I said. “If you ever feel like you’re hating on your body, come to me first. I understand what it’s like to hate what you see in the mirror. I wouldn’t wish that upon anyone.”
Ana nodded and stood. I released my grip on her hand, watching as she walked over to the door. But just as she was about to leave, I called out, “Wait.”
She turned. “Yes, Luna?”
“Call me Hannah from now on,” I said. “Please.”
Ana let out a small breath of what almost looked like relief. “Okay. Goodnight… Hannah.”

Once Ana was gone, I sank down a little further into my bed and furrowed my brow. My mind reeled from what I had learned-and from what I already knew. I kept thinking back to the disappearance of White Rabbit, as well as the strange news that Noah had given me.
About how our own family doctor had claimed that I was too ‘frail’ for sex outside of our ovulation window.
Somehow, I wondered if they could be connected. So, too curious to get any rest, I quickly called up the doctor’s office and asked for the information on when our family doctor went away.
“Let’s see,” the receptionist on the other end said, pausing for a moment. “The doctor went on his trip… exactly two weeks ago.”
I furrowed my brow, quickly tapping on my phone to check my last message sent to WhiteRabbit-whose account was now gone, but the messages between us still remained.
I had sent my last message to WhiteRabbit exactly two weeks ago.
