In public, she was the noble daughter of the Muller family and the enviable young mistress of the Carrell family. But behind the scenes, she was a poor maid who had to wear a mask all day long and struggled for her livelihood.

Due to a conspiracy, she was forced to marry Ralph Carrell, son of the most powerful family in Northfield, in the name of Rayna Muller.

After the wedding, Ralph doted on her.

When Rayna showed up and claimed the place, she shed all her glory and left. She thought she would never see Ralph again, but Ralph took her into his arms and said, "Mrs. Carrell, you are not running away from me."

The Odd Luna Series

We arrived at an open clearing that is surround by trees. It was about an hour run from the pack house.

I gathered trash along the way that stupid humans left all over the forest to use as targets.

I set the trash down in a pile and took the drawstring bag behind a tree. I shifted back and put my clothes back on.

"So what do you want to start working on?" Chuck asked.
