The mountain scenery sped by as Lana drove, and I felt the sudden shift as we

passed a point. We had exited the territory, and we had both instantly relaxed. I

looked at her and she spared me a glance before turning her eyes back to the road.

Something had been niggling at me. I didn’t know why, but from the instant Carter

insisted on killing my father, my fear had been replaced by random, untested

possibilities, ideas I didn’t want to put past just anyone. Lana, however, had

admitted she was once a wolf with dominance and a high rank, but her trauma had

weakened her. Dominance displays made her nervous, yet she was the first to

approach me, with my fangs still sunk deep into Creedon’s neck.

“Random thought for 2000?“‘

“What’s up, mama?”

“If Carter can feel my emotions, and they affect his, why can’t I use the same link

between us to share my dominance if he is so set on taking on Clyde. I watched

Lana blink before she paused to focus on a particularly windy bit of road.

She cleared her throat before she spoke.

“Where I come from, things are very different; it’s why Mazzie and I seem so

unconventional. In my world, it’s not so reputed,” she said carefully.

“Lana, I don’t look down on you,” I found myself saying.

“That’s not what I am trying to say,” she backpeddled, easing the car around the

next curve in the road. “My pack still adheres to old traditions, in sharing when it

benefits the pack or an ally. However, some things are reserved for our mate. If a

Luna holds more dominance to her alpha, she can choose to share it. I haven’t seen

it done, but there are stories. Your bond with Carter is strong, and I think if you

work at it you could make it happen.”

“Tell me more,” I said intrigued..

A few hours later we had the contents of Jake’s safety deposit box in Lana’s trunk

and she handed me the keys still in the happy place after receiving the energy

healing tattoo.

“You can do it,” she insisted. “Let’s test it first, once he shifts you ease it into him

see if he responds. I just nodded, starting the car and heading home eager to be

back with Carter. Yet at the same time as the territory line washed over me it just

felt wrong. The land wasn’t the issue, it felt like home. The problem was that it was

my father’s domain. Being a wolf was not all rainbows and unicorns. I may be the

unicorn but what I needed right now was direction.

When we got back to the house Lana followed me inside. I was still thinking about

what she said when I got a text from Carter.

Carter:I miss you, these assholes are testing my patience. Everything that happened

seems to have been swept under the rug. All they know is that I smell of you and

they keep trying to get a rise out of me that I’m whipped by a human. I don’t know

how much you want me to say. So I’m just taking it but my wolf is about to sink his

claws into someone.

I showed Lana the message and she rolled her eyes.

“That department is full of idiot assholes,” she said with a snarl. She wasn’t hiding

her wolf from me anymore and I felt privileged for that.

“So do I leave him or rescue him?” I asked, confused at what to do with this

information.
