Slowly, I turn and face the other side of the bed, my side of the bed. My heart skips a beat before it starts beating fast as my eyes lock on something leaning against the wall. I swallow and my gaze darts back to the door before returning to the object.
The fantasy I’d been living before I went to bed popped and burned to the ground. Reality quickly slapped me in the face and I was left feeling cold and empty. My hands get clammy as I stare at the sword.
The one that was hanging above the fireplace in Shane’s office. The one from my previous life with Shane. The one I used to sever his head from his body. I still hadn’t had time to slip out and get into his office. I was always with Shane.
Whoever it was, whoever slipped into the Alpha of Half Moon’s room had to know something. My heart flip flops and I turn back to Shane. Tears fill my eyes as I look at him sleeping peacefully beside me.
