Dominic, I’m scared. I confess, speaking through our bond. It hadn’t been easy to convince him to let me join the press conference, since I’m technically still supposed to be on bed rest. My blood pressure was still too high when we checked it this afternoon, but it remains to be seen whether that’s because of my condition or the stress of the pack finding out about our lies.

If I were an outsider observing us right now, I’d probably think we were silly – drunk on our own romance… and maybe we are, but I can’t bring myself to care because I’m not on the outside looking in. This is my life and I’ll be damned if I’m going to deny myself this joy – not when I’ve worked
