Erik\u2019s POV:<\/p>\n
A thought hit me, and I lit up. \u201cThen, Deanna\u2019s baby-\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cYeah.\u201d Luis\u2019s mouth curved. \u201cThe baby will be healthy. No curse. Just a little wolf pup.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThat\u2019s phenomenal.\u201d I took a long pull of coffee genuinely happy for him.<\/p>\n
Then, he went, very casually, \u201cYou\u2019ve dated a lot. What does a proposal look like?\u201d<\/p>\n
The coffee went down the wrong way. I coughed<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat do you mean, I\u2019ve dated a lot?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cAm I wrong?\u201d<\/p>\n
I straightened, affronted. \u201cOne or two, sure\u2013but I\u2019ve never proposed.\u201d<\/p>\n
I\u2019m a principled bachelor. Even if there\u2019s a marriage contract, it\u2019s just a family alliance. Who needs proposals?<\/p>\n
Luis kept a straight face. \u201cYou\u2019ve at least seen how it\u2019s done. I\u2019m giving you the honor of making a recommendation.\u201d<\/p>\n
I rolled my eyes.<\/p>\n
Giving me the honor, please.<\/p>\n
Translation: the Alpha has zero ideas.<\/p>\n
Then again, the man was a pure\u2013hearted first\u2013timer in everything that mattered\u2013and all of it with the same woman.<\/p>\n
I adjusted my tie. \u201cFine. Be dazzled by my genius and romance.<\/p>\n
\u201cLately, the werewolf social media is obsessed with deep\u2013sea proposals: guy vanishes mid- dive, reemerges from the reef with the ring between his teeth and a little placard that says \u2018Will you marry me?\u2018<\/p>\n
\u201cPicture it\u2013weightless, glowing, once\u2013in\u2013a\u2013lifetime heartquake. Deanna will say yes.<\/p>\n
The more I talked, the more it sounded like a solid plan. I even felt the itch to do a proposal myself.<\/p>\n

And the person I\u2019d propose to\u2026<\/p>\n

Damn it. I must be possessed.<\/p>\n

Luis cut through my daydream with a glacial lock. \u201cSo, you want my daughter floating in open water.\u201d<\/p>\n
I smacked my forehead. \u201cRight. She\u2019s pregnant. My bad. Next.\u201d<\/p>\n
I rifled my mental catalogue of romance and rat led off option after option.<\/p>\n
He shot each one down, stone\u2013faced, like a king watting flies.<\/p>\n
Honestly, they were great ideas.<\/p>\n
Yet Luis kept going, nope, not that, not this.<\/p>\n
And he looked at me like, Seriously, that\u2019s your level of creativity?<\/p>\n
By the end, I began to wonder if my brain was mush.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019ve got one more. Auron. Wait for the aurora. You drop to one knee as a tundra reindeer trots up with the ring on a ribbon. Vows under the lights. No woman alive says no.\u201d<\/p>\n
Luis narrowed his eyes, thinking.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe could swap the reindeer for Puddy. Puddy can\u2019t do Norpodia, so we change the locale.\u201d<\/p>\n
At last\u2013accepted.<\/p>\n
I exhaled, then muttered, \u201cTruth is, if you proposed in your own garden, she\u2019d still say yes.\u201d<\/p>\n
Luis\u2019s POV:<\/p>\n
My gaze dropped. \u201cI overheard her phone call. She said she was leaving Nordvale.\u201d<\/p>\n
An Alpha\u2019s hearing is unforgiving.<\/p>\n
At my office door that day, I heard every word Deanna told Kathryn.<\/p>\n
I almost walked in and asked. Almost.<\/p>\n
But I didn\u2019t. Pathetic, wasn\u2019t it?<\/p>\n
The Mooncrown Alpha, afraid to step through a floor\u2013afraid to hear his fated mate say she\u2019s<\/p>\n

leaving Nordvale.<\/p>\n
Later, I tried a gentler tack\u2013asked if she\u2019d kept anything from me.<\/p>\n
She said no.<\/p>\n
I can\u2019t name the feeling that followed. Just\u2026 a small, clean stab under the ribs.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat? You sure you heard right?\u201d<\/p>\n
Erik jerked upright. \u201cAnd you still want to propose?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIf she\u2019s not ready to say it, she has her reasons. On the day I propose, I\u2019m transferring twenty percent of Mooncrown Corporation to her name.\u201d<\/p>\n
