Radiance Collins' POV

Four weeks.

Since I moved here.

Sarah and I never talk anymore. We sort of drifted.

"Hey B. You look stressed out, want to talk about it?" I asked Bentley, worry lacing around my words. He unexpectedly showed up at my house and thankfully, Sarah and Uncle Caden were on date night.

"No. The rouges that attacked Moonlight Stone Pack fifteen years ago are back. Since we were allies, we have to help out. It's been physically draining to say the least." He managed to choke out.

"Is there anyway I can help you?"

"You can't even sleep well yourself. Take care of that first."

It is true. After he'd marked me, I've been having a hard time sleeping. I'd usually fish my phone on the nightstand to face-time him. That is, if he's awake which he always were.

"I don't know what's wrong with me. I can't sleep." I confessed.

"That's the mate pull. You can only sleep well with me beside you." Oh. That explains why.

"I'll sleep with you." I blurted. If sleeping with him helps, then I'll do it. "I'll tell Sarah."

"You can't move into the pack house, mea lux. People will be wondering why there's human on our land. Though it will be different since you are carrying my mark."

"Hasn't there been human mates, ever?" I was curious.

"Yes, but not for Alphas. You're the first ever future human Luna, love. I don't know whether my pack will accept you." He sighed. My heart tingled at my nicknames.

So far, "love" is my favorite.

"I'll prove myself to be worthy. Worthy enough to be their leader." I said with confidence. He paused for a moment.

"Do you have any idea what that meant?" He asked, looking at me seriously and I shook my head.

"It means you'll fight some people in our pack. And you have to make it out alive."

"I'll do anything to be with you, Bentley. And I mean anything. Even if it risks my life." I replied honestly.

He shook his head. "I can't let you take the risk. You mean the world to me, Radiance. I don't know what I'll do without you." He caressed my cheek. The sparks were stronger now.

"Please B. I can and I will make it out alive. Let me help you." He shook his head again. "God darn it, I want to help!" I was beyond pissed. My breathing was ragged, so I took deep breaths to calm myself down.

"It's you."

"What?" I frowned.

"You're the Alpha's missing daughter." I was beyond confused, then Sarah's words rang in my head. "Turn around, Radiance."

"No."

"Turn around, Rad."

"I told you not to call me that!" I snapped.

"I said turn around."

"So long as you prevent me from proving my worth, I won't." I crossed my arms and huffed childishly.
