Chapter: New HomePulling up to Robbie's house on the back of his bike was a completely new kind of experience. The wind tangled my hair, my arms wrapped tight around his waist, and my thoughts raced faster in my head. I was nervous, but the moment we turned the corner and I saw it, I forgot to breathe for a second. A large colonial-style house stood there, elegant and aged like a storybook painting. White wooden columns framed the wide porch, and the windows—arched and gold-trimmed—caught the light like amber eyes. Ivy crept up one side of the brick, giving it an old-world charm. The shutters were navy blue, the roof slate gray, and two big maple trees stretched their limbs across the front yard like they were reaching to shelter the house. There was something soft about the place, even though it was huge. Grand, yes, but not like the intimidating mansions in BlueMont that looked more like courtrooms than homes. This one felt... lived in. No arrogance at all. "This is the place," Robbie said, pulli

Chapter: BonnieI saw Mia rushing toward us and the grannies with an angry look on her face, and I had to blink a few times to make sure I wasn't imagining it. Seeing her outside of the hospital felt surreal—like spotting your strictest teacher in a tank top at the grocery store. It just didn't make any sense. I didn't picture her existing outside of the hospital or the diner. "Don't you see she's going to hurt you?" Mia snapped, storming up like a tornado in scrubs. "What if this girl drains your energy? All she did was put up a barrier! Why are you pretending to be a healer as well? Do you even have a license to practice?" she demanded, all righteousness and fury. "I don't have a medical license," I said honestly. Who knew that was something healers needed. I wasn't practicing medicine. I wasn't charging for this. I didn't even touch a stethoscope. "Practicing without a license is a crime!" Mia barked, turning on Robbie like she was about to call the cops herself. "She admitted it! No license at

Chapter: Jason"What the fuck do you mean the military strategy all from the former Luna?" I bellowed, slamming the pile of reports against the conference table hard enough to make the cups rattle. "You signed your names to it!" General Oliver didn't flinch. The bastard just stood there, composed, like I hadn't just accused him of treason. "That's because whenever you saw her name, you immediately dismissed it as invalid. I picked up one of those reports and saw the brilliance in it, so I copied it exactly and handed it to you. That's how we were able to win a lot of our smaller battles and ultimately defeat the greater threat." He even had the nerve to bow his head like he was doing something noble for me. Fuck! My chest burned with rage. Who else had gone behind my back? Who else had been listening to that woman? It was like she was some ghost still haunting the halls of this damn pack. I'm tired of hearing about some dead girl! First, I couldn't find a single healer good enough to treat Ell

Chapter: ParentsThe older man and woman looked at me silently as Robbie and I sat across from them. They didn't seem confused, or angry, or happy—just cautious. Their expressions were perfectly calm, unreadable, like they were waiting to see if I'd pass some test they hadn't announced yet. Tea had been served, and five full minutes passed without anyone saying a word. The quiet wasn't comfortable, but it wasn't hostile either. Just tense. So I did what I always did in tense situations—I tried to be polite. I cleared my throat, lowered my eyes, and bowed my head. "Pardon the intrusion. My name is Bonnie. It's nice to meet you." Their gazes didn't waver. I could feel the weight of their eyes burning into the back of my skull like I'd just walked into the middle of a battlefield instead of someone's garden. I had no idea who these people were, only that they seemed important. More important than I felt prepared for. "Nice to meet you, Bonnie," the woman said finally, her voice smooth and composed.

Chapter: ConfessionsI was starting to think in overdrive now after our meal was unexpectedly given to us for free by the owner, and for nothing in particular. We were sitting in the park under a tall elm tree, and while Robbie casually bit into the rest of his pastry, I was spiraling inside. This wasn't the first suspicious circumstance surrounding Robbie though. He'd gotten me an ID card and papers like it was no problem. He directly set up a meeting with the elders and they waited for us—waited for us! He'd arranged for a special doctor at the hospital to block out time for me for prenatal exams. That same doctor had actually listened to Robbie when he said I could heal a broken leg with my hands. People around here knew him by name. They greeted him like an old friend, but also with a kind of reverence that went beyond casual affection. It couldn't just be because he was handsome. "Are you an Alpha?" I blurted out. Robbie blinked, then gave a sheepish little smile. "Oh, you noticed. Guess it saves

Chapter: Bonnie"That's enough," I said, pushing the hairbrush away from my head. Ms. Daisy was way more excited about me going out today than I was. "He's just showing me around. What's there to get excited about?" "It's a date, Bonnie," Ms. Daisy said, wagging a finger at me like she was scolding a teenager. "It's a friendly outing," I corrected her firmly, crossing my arms. "You two have gone out together almost every day for the past two weeks. How much of the town is left to see? That boy clearly likes you." "So I must like him back?" I arched a brow. "I guess not," she said with a shrug, "but it doesn't change that he still asked you out. Which makes this, and all those other 'friendly outings,' dates." When the oracle set Jason and me up, he'd never shown up for even one date. His mother did, though. She was such a lovely person. We talked for hours, nearly every day we met. I thought I'd get to see more of her, but after the wedding, she retired and left on a long vacation—permanently o

Chapter: 119. 1 Year Later Dating Damien hadn't exactly been easy. At first, Jared went full petty sabotage mode—planting fake pictures in my bag, giving Damien's number out to random strangers, doing anything he could to wedge something between us. But after about two weeks, he got bored, or maybe just tired of seeing it wasn't working, and backed off. Now he was too busy working with his mom at HUG and trying to keep Cormac from laundering too much money through McIntyre. Thankfully, we'd reached a point where we could all hang out again without drama... well, except for Jared and Damien's usual bitch-fest back and forth. Meanwhile, Jason had flown back to Italy with his dad after a tearful goodbye with my mom. He was finally starting the whole "heir to Ferrari" thing now that his dad had apparently given up on chasing women. After he left, I made a quiet visit to his mother's memorial. I apologized to her for everything and promised I'd never let Jason get hurt again. It was all I could offer. On the bus

Chapter: 118. The Love InterestI looked around the bright space, blinking through the haze of gold and white. The floor didn't feel real beneath my feet—it was too soft, too quiet. The kind of silence that wraps around you like cotton, comforting and terrifying all at once. "What the hell is this?" I muttered, spinning as the door behind me clicked shut. "So you're back," a woman's voice echoed across the space. I turned, and there she stood—a figure that looked more divine than human. Her presence glowed with a radiant gold that shimmered like sunlight caught in glass. Her hair flowed like liquid fire, and her eyes were endless, filled with stars. No wings, no halo—yet she was the most godlike thing I had ever seen. "Looks like you've accomplished your goal of getting revenge on Elijah Roth," she said, her voice calm and echoing like it came from inside my own head. "How was it? Are you satisfied?" I exhaled slowly. "Yeah... thanks to you, System." But even as I said it, the words felt hollow. Like I'd said t

Chapter: 117. The IllusionThe fire started spreading faster than I expected. The gasoline-soaked couch lit up with a fury, the flames crackling and leaping like they'd been starved too long and finally given their feast. Eli's face twisted when he realized what I'd done—pure disbelief smeared with rage. "Until the end..." he muttered, eyes flaring. "Fuck, alright. Let's end this fucked-up relationship. You prepared so much, I'm fucking cornered." "Shut the fuck up," I said, raising my fists again. The room was already growing hot, but we ignored the fire swallowing everything around us. We clashed like animals, swinging, grappling, gasping—two beasts caged in a burning tomb. His body slammed into mine and we hit the ground hard. Eli climbed on top, hands around my neck, squeezing with everything he had. I choked, vision dimming at the edges—but my hand found the broomstick nearby. I grabbed it and broke it clean across his head. Before he could reel back, I jabbed a jagged end right into his open eye. "Fu

Chapter: 116. Ashes To Ashes{TW: violence} Eli jumped to his feet, his face twisted with desperation and rage as he lunged forward again. "FUCK!!! YOU'RE DOING ALL THIS BECAUSE OF ONE LITTLE BOUNTY ON YOUR HEAD?! JUST BECAUSE I CALLED YOU A FAG?!!!" He swung wildly, fists flying in every direction. He was panicking. Even still, one of his punches landed hard on my cheek. "FINE THEN!!! I APOLOGIZE!!! JUST LET THIS SHIT GO NOW!" Eli snapped. I kicked his knee, making him stumble. "I'M BEING FUCKING SINCERE!!!" he yelled, breathless, spit flying from his mouth as the fight devolved into something brutal and ugly. Then, with a sharp upper swing, I felt something slice from my cheek to my forehead—blood immediately clouded one of my eyes. I staggered back, vision blurry. Another blow slammed into my face. Then another. My ribs caught a few good hits before I dropped to a knee, trying to gather myself, focus. "What's wrong, Jack?" Eli sneered, looming over me. "After all that effort you put into living like a

Chapter: 115. Full Circle{TW: Violence} The entire passenger side of the car was crushed, and all the airbags on my side had deployed. It felt like I had been tossed violently against something soft yet hard at the same time. I let out the breath I'd been holding and kicked my door open, staggering out of the wreckage. A few gags followed, but fortunately, I hadn't eaten anything all day, so nothing came up. Holy shit, I almost killed myself! I made a mental note—never again. I wasn't cut out for driving in situations like this. I glanced into the backseat. Eli was knocked out cold, blood dripping from his forehead where he'd slammed into the window. Too bad for him, he was still breathing. I wasn't done with him yet. I pried open the passenger door and dragged him out by the back of his shirt, pulling him into the forest. The eerie darkness around me gave me the jitters, but I ignored it. I had bigger things to focus on right now. "Stupid asshole," I muttered, dragging him further. "I fucking got you. F

Chapter: 114. The Hunt BeginsA week had passed, and no one had found Declan's body. Things were moving fast, and without speaking to my dad first, I took the initiative and bought everything related to McIntyre Corporations. It was a massive undertaking. We had to fire the entire board and replace them with our own people. The financial webs were deep, tracing money from offshore accounts, and the intel I'd gathered? It was a goldmine of blackmail material, exposing nearly every business owner, politician, and high-ranking official in the city. My dad didn't hesitate for a second. He immediately used this treasure trove to his advantage. He worked quickly, killing the news of Declan Sr.'s disappearance so that no one outside our circle would know what happened. My mom, of course, was confused. The official story was that Declan had fled to avoid the scandal, but I later realized something: My dad hadn't lied to her—he just didn't want to ruin her newfound peace. She had taken a liking to Jason, and Dad didn't wa

Chapter: 99. Katy SchwartzThe graduation party was already in full hormonal meltdown by the time I got to the bar. Lights flashing like a seizure warning, bass shaking the ground like the apocalypse was coming in dubstep form. I leaned against the bar, sipping my overly sweet drink—cranberry something—and tried to make sense of the swarm of sweaty teens pretending to be adults. Anne sat beside me, quieter than usual, her eyes locked on Victor. He was across the room surrounded by a fresh pack of wannabe predators dressed like influencers on a clearance budget. "Why is Aureliano so popular?" I asked, mostly to myself, but loud enough that Anne glanced over at the small harem forming around my boyfriend. "Unfortunately," Anne muttered, her voice flat, "it's the downside of them being so handsome." I snorted. "Yeah, but Aureliano isn't Victor handsome. He's—what? Budget magazine cover handsome. So what gives?" Anne shrugged, but the line of her jaw was sharp. "Can't be helped, I guess." That was a lie. Ever

Chapter: 98. Anne Jacobs"It's time to go inside," Victor said, practically dragging me past Yesenia, who was still trying to tame the one cowlick in his hair like it was a matter of national security. "Are you ready to go inside?""Yeah—with all that extra security," I muttered, eyeing the two armed guards by the entrance.Walking into the auditorium felt like stepping into a crime scene disguised as a celebration. The metal detectors were new, so were the sniffer dogs, and the uniformed officers lining the walls like we were all one wrong move away from being tackled. When I passed through, my cane set off the alarm, of course. That stupid alarm that blared like I was smuggling in a weapon instead of a titanium rod in my leg. I told Dad not to splurge on the fancy cane. He thought it would make me feel dignified. It didn't."I'll meet you at the end," Victor said, giving my hand a quick squeeze."I'll see you then," I murmured, letting go, even though I didn't want to. Even though everything in me wanted to

Chapter: 97. Victor BlackwoodI watched Anne get ready, each quiet movement slicing at my nerves. She was going to leave. Said it was for tutoring. Tutoring. As if that made any fucking sense. Anne, of all people—my sweet Anne, who could sleep through a test and still walk out with an almost perfect score—telling me she had to give up our weekend to sit through some half-assed review session? Bullshit. "You're telling me you, the top student, have to go to extra tutoring?" I asked, my voice lower than I meant it to be. She didn't even flinch. Just pulled on her jacket like I wasn't sitting there fighting the urge to punch a hole through the wall. "Argh. What kind of bullshit is that?" I snapped. She barely blinked. She was so good at pretending now. So good at acting like she didn't notice the way I was shaking. Why wasn't she anxious anymore? "Come on, our precious weekend..." I muttered, venom and resentment bleeding into my tone. She just kept tying her shoelaces. I stared at her hands. Those soft, perfe

Chapter: 96. Jessica RiveraI used to be considered a prodigy. As a baby, I was quiet. I hit every milestone early. The pediatrician said I had focus beyond my age—my mother said it was divine. Everyone said so, really. Teachers, priests, neighbors. They called me special, chosen, and I believed them. How could I not? I was adored for just existing. I was a gift from God. That's what people told me. That's what I learned to be. My brother got things easier, though. Always. Naturally gifted without trying. And worse, he was soft. He didn't even want the spotlight. I hated him for that. I made it my mission to be better than him, louder than him, brighter. And everyone believed I was. My mother was thrilled. My father wasn't. He never praised me. Never smiled. Never said I was smart, or beautiful, or good. He said I was a problem. A manipulator. A demon. Once he looked me straight in the face and said, "God doesn't make girls like you." And maybe he was right, but not in the way he meant. That's why I never ne

Chapter: 95. PartyThe car ride home was the kind of awkward that made my skin itch. Not the silence-between-strangers kind. The heavier kind. Like if I opened my mouth wrong, everything might crack open and spill out. So instead, I stared out the taxi window like I was auditioning for a sad indie film, watching the city pass in streaks of light and shadow. But I wasn't really looking at anything. My mind was somewhere else—limping slightly behind the rest of me. How the hell was I supposed to adjust outside of the hospital? Was everything going to be just as terrifying as it had been in there, or worse? At least in a hospital, the worst had already happened. Everyone expects you to look like hell and smell like rubbing alcohol. "Hey, Victor..." I said softly, hoping to ease into conversation. Something normal. Something not about trauma and blood loss and... this weird tension hanging between us like a bad smell. "Mmh," he muttered, not even turning his head. Cool. Awesome. Love that. His face was

Chapter: 94. DischargeI was so bored it hurt. Like, actual physical pain. Probably because lying in a hospital bed with a useless leg and nothing but your own thoughts will do that to a person. That, and Yesenia confiscated my phone. Something about "protecting my mental state." Which, to be fair, she probably had a point—unfortunately. The internet was foaming at the mouth. Everyone was calling me a hero and reposting my face like I was some kind of teenage martyr. Someone filmed the hallway—right when I tackled Jessica—and that clip of me getting shot went viral. Viral like a dog playing the piano. Viral like a meme. Except it wasn't funny, and I wasn't performing. My phone had practically melted down from interview requests. The school hadn't even cleaned the blood off the floor yet, and already producers were asking for a soundbite. People from school shared my photo with captions like "Pray for Anne 🕊️" even though some of them had laughed when I got shoved into lockers a year ago. Somehow, getti

Chapter: Levi DunhamTen years later I was woken up by Blair jumping onto my belly knocking the wind right out of me. "Daddy! It's spring!" "Where's your brother?" I groaned. "He's going to visit Marina." Canon had grown up quickly and looked a lot more like me as a teenager. He's fourteen now and manifested as an alpha, he's doing average in school and he's got a little human girlfriend at the moment. Blair just turned eleven and recently manifested as a witch to which Conan threw a celebration to low-key rub it in peoples faces. This manifestation gave us a more solid connection with the older witches of the pack who often came by to teach her new things. So far it's been a very Happy life. "What's going on?" Conan groaned as he woke up. "It's spring," I sat up. "It's about time we start looking again." "Levi, we've got married under a different god for ten years straight. Can't we just skip it this year?" Conan begged. "But it's tradition, Gorgeous!" "It gets cheesier every time! I'm running

Chapter: Conan MossEpilogue I sat in front of the mirror, fingers lightly adjusting the collar of my all-white suit. The silk caught the light, making me look... radiant, I guess is what they were going for. Like I was glowing. Blushing bride, Levi would probably tease. And for once, I didn't even mind that since this time I actually felt like one. I hadn't just been bought like livestock this time. I was here because I chose to be. Not by force. Two years had passed since Blair was born, Canon was now freshly four. The hardest parts of raising them were behind us now—or so i hoped—and Levi, in typical Levi fashion, just looked at me one day and said, "Screw it. Let's be bonded under every god that allows it." And that's how I ended up in a church. Twenty minutes from walking down the aisle to officially become Conan Dunham. I admired that I still looked good with my hair cut. It was a tough decision to get rid of it all and Levi was sad but if I didn't chop it off, Blair would've pulled it all

Chapter: Levi Dunham"Conan, come on!" I paced back and forth like my feet had minds of their own, emergency bag in one hand, my heart in the other. "We have to go." Conan was laughing. Actually laughing. Leaning over the sink, putting clean plates away from dinner like we weren't two seconds from the most important moment of our lives. "I've had, like, six contractions. I'm not going to fucking give birth in the next twenty minutes." "You'll be sorry if that's not true," I muttered, storming into the kitchen under the guise of helping but really just trying to drag him out by the collar if I had to. He leaned back against me, smirking, and placed his hands over mine where they clutched his waist. "Look around," he said, voice soft. "The next time we come through that door, we'll have two pups." God. That hit me right in the chest. I broke into the dumbest grin imaginable. He'd given me everything—everything I ever wanted. And still, if I didn't get him out of that house and into the clinic in the nex

Chapter: Conan MossIt was just supposed to be a normal day. "I'll be right back," I told Levi after breakfast, grabbing my coat from the back of the chair. "Where are you going?" he asked, raising an eyebrow at me while Canon tugged on his little shoes like he was trying to follow me wherever I was headed. "I forgot about my doctor's appointment," I replied. Levi was up in a flash, already halfway to the stairs before I could say anything else. "Let's go together. I might as well get a check-up too," he called over his shoulder. "Give me a minute!" Of course. I knew what this was. Every other time I went to the clinic, I'd gone with Alex. And Levi—being Levi—was not about to let Alex one-up him, even in something as small as accompanying me to the doctor. Honestly, I didn't care that much, but I never really understood why Levi let Alex get under his skin so easily. It's not like I didn't notice people flirt with Levi right in front of me too. Even subtly. I fucking hated that. "Okay, I changed,"

Chapter: Levi DunhamThe day was exhausting. I was exhausted but there was only this final stretch left to go. Getting Canon to sit still for pictures. It was his first birthday which I thought would be a breeze. I mean I had nothing but time currently since peace was finally achieved. But no... a one year old doesn't care about time. They care about chaos, especially when they're in a group. "Canon!" Mom squealed holding up her camera. "Look at grandma!" "Almost done here. Smile Canon," I practically begged him. But no dice. Conan started clapping and singing Wolfie Wears His Woolly Coat. "Wolfie wears his woolly coat, Even when he sails his boat. He howls a song, he hums a tune, Dancing gently with the moon." Canons face lit up and everyone quickly started taking his picture before we lost the smile again. "How adorable!" "Cute!" "What a well behaved baby." I owe that all to Conan. "Good job today," Conan cane closer and fed Canon some cake. "Let's get you comfortable." Conan took off Cano

Chapter: Conan Moss It's a simple thing—just walk out, smile, and wave. That's it. This is a peace party, not a damn death chamber. All I'm doing is stepping into a room to solidify a lighter workload for the future. So why the hell was I nervous? Maybe because all the plans I've had for this pack are almost complete. Maybe it's because I keep asking myself: what now? I went from nothing to something, but what comes next? What am I even supposed to want next? I glanced around the edge of the curtain before stepping out, and what astounded me most wasn't the crowd or the orchestra or even the ceremonial banners flying high with our new shared crest. It was Levi. A year ago, he didn't even know I existed. A year ago, I was just another mouth to talk down to, just another omega. Now—he was someone I couldn't imagine living happily without. Someone I'd kill for. Someone who, despite being poisoned just days ago, rose to the occasion of leading this grand event with steady hands and a sharp jawline. His
