Louisa was a tremendous help. When she arrived, we went over how it went with Jenny, and she gave me advice and praise. “It’s the hardest part of being Luna. Wolves who have lost their mates can be unpredictable in their grief. You need to let them feel their feelings, but you also want to make sure you don’t lose them to it.”

We went over plans for me to follow up with Jenny. Instead of taking over, Louisa said I had already established a bond with Jenny in her grief. “Her wolf will see you as her Luna now. If I take over, she may feel abandoned by you.”

I felt the pressure of that. Louisa had explained that it was mostly the wolf half we needed to focus on. The human side experienced the normal stages of grief, but the wolf added unpredictability to the process.

If the wolf didn’t survive the loss, the human side would often wither away, having lost not just their mate, but also part of their own soul.

I remembered how Tobias explained his relationship with his wolf. Two parts that make up a whole. What must it feel like to lose half of yourself? I was determined not to let it happen to Jenny.

“How soon will Tobias want to meet with the pack about what happened? I’m assuming he’ll want to address it himself.”

Louisa pursed her lips. “Tonight. Rumors will spread fast. And it will be better for Jenny’s wolf if the pack knows. Those who have ties to her can circle close and remind her she’s not alone.”

“It sounds like the social aspect of the pack will be important.”

“Wolves are very social creatures. We live in packs for a reason.” Louisa shifted in her chair. “The well-being of wolves can be hard to sustain in larger packs. Wolves can slip under the radar.”

“Who’s responsible for preventing that from happening?”

“The Luna, dear.” Louisa gave me the sympathetic smile of someone who had been there themselves. “A good Alpha, which Tobias is, will help, but ultimately, that’s your role.”

“Well, I’m not letting Jenny slip under the radar. Can we organize the pack meeting for Tobias? He has enough going on.”

“Let me link him to find out when he’ll be back.” Louisa’s eyes glazed over for a minute. “He’s on his way. He sounded relieved that we were going to get the meeting ready.”

“Are you able to link the pack to tell them, or is there a phone tree or something?”

“No phone tree, unfortunately, though it’s not a bad idea to have one as a backup plan, just in case.” Louisa considered it for a moment before her eyes lost focus again, this time only for a few seconds. “Done. The house staff knows what to do when a call for a pack meeting comes in. They’re already on their way to set up the dining hall.”

“Does Jenny need to attend? I would think it would be hard for her. Or should her wolf be with everyone?”

“Excellent question, dear,” Louisa gave me her approval.
