Liam looks at her incredulously. “I wish | could say that no self-respecting Alpha would force a mate bond for
power, but it makes sense. Having the strongest pack in the country, | don’t need the power. But a smaller pack,
a weaker pack, would definitely benefit from having a Guardian.”
Cara turns back to me. “So, now that we've established that you can trust Liam, let's get back to your question.
Alessia, you know you're a Guardian, correct?”
“Yes.” She answers, pushing forward.
“Do you know that you are from the Guardian line that started with Bellona?”
She asks.
“Yes.” Alessia responds. “I have smemories from my previous lives. The most important is that you, Artemis,
are my daughter. You were born of Donovan and Andra. You were the first Guardian to ever be born.”
“Wait, can we back up?” Liam asks. “You were Lily Nelson's wolf before you were Angel's wolf?”
It's Cara that answers. “Yes and no. It’s a bit confusing but the way King Ailduin explained it to us, the Guardian

humans, of course, have the human side of love. So, the mate bond, such as with Andra and Donovan, ends
when one of the bonded pair dies. The Guardian spirit, however, hast memory of her previous lives. Not full
memories, but some. That is why the Fae began chronicling the Guardians’ histories.” She stops and a huge
smile spreads across her face. “I can’t wait to tell Ailduin we've found you! He's been looking for you for over
thirteen years!”
Liam growls softly. “Why would a Fae King care about a wolf Guardian?”
Cara turns back to him. “One hundred years ago, Ailduin was mated to the wolf who carried Bellona’s Guardian
line. Her Alpha refused to release her and forced the mate bond on her. While he was never able to be with his
mate, he has kept. close watch on her Guardian line, feeling a connection to it.”

“Luna? | didn’t know you were here. It's good to see you.”
Cara hops up to greet Dustin. “So formal, Beta. CallCara like you used to. It's good to see you.”

“You as well.” He says, but it doesn’t sound like he means it. His eyes are tracking between Cara, Liam and
myself.
Liam gets up and grabs a tray, bringing it to me. “Here, you can eat while we talk. You are obviously getting
stronger quickly, but | still want to see you eat more.”
Cara grabs a tray of food and I notice Dustin sniffing the air around her. “Luna? Is there something you want to
share?”
She gives him a huge smile. “Well, I'm sure Rik won't mind, since it’s obvious in my smell anyway. We're
expecting our first Alpha heir in about five months.”
“Congratulations!” He says and hugs her. “Please tell Rik we're very happy for the both of you.” He looks at Liam
as he says this, but Liam is focused on me.
“You're not eating.” He says tosoftly. | quickly pick up my utensils and begin eating. He smiles before turning
to grab the last tray of food.
When Dustin leaves, and Cara and Liam have returned to their seats, Cara begins again.
“I don’t want to overwhelm you, and there is so much to talk about. Dad is going to be over the moon to see
you.” She looks thoughtful for a second. “Alessia, when do you think you'd be strong enough to cover for
dinner at our pack?”

She asks.
Before | can answer, Liam jumps in. “She was on her death bed less than two weeks ago Cara. She’s not ready
for dinner parties.”
Cara shakes her head at him. “No matter what she’s been through, she’s a Guardian. AND, she has the Guardian
line with advanced healing. I learned that from Ailduin too. So, she'll be back to full strength much more quickly
than you'd expect.” She turns back to me. “So, Alessia? How long do you think?”
Alessia thinks about it for a moment. ‘Are you okay withanswering in front of the Alpha?‘ She asks me.
‘He already knows we're a Guardian and your daughter, that’s so weird to say, trusts him.”’
“I will be strong enough for light exercise starting tomorrow. | won't be strong enough to shift for a couple more
days.”
Cara is nodding her head. “That's how it was with Artemis and | when we were healing. So, tomorrow is
Thursday. Rik, Anders and | always have dinner with Dad on Thursdays. You should cand we can surprise
him. He will be so excited that we've finally found you.”

I look at Liam. “If you think you will be strong enough, I think it would be good for you to meet the other
Guardian. It may also help you to get your strength back.” He looks at Cara. “And | need to talk to all of you
anyway. It is possible. that there is a war coming, and | will need your help.”
