Chapter: First Job in Human World~Aria's POV~I walked for three days after leaving Oakhaven.My feet blistered. My legs ached. My stomach gnawed at itself with a hunger so deep it felt like a physical wound.I had no destination. No plan. Just the desperate need to put as much distance as possible between me and Adrian.The roads blurred together. Trees gave way to fields. Fields gave way to small towns. Small towns gave way to something larger.A city.I had never seen a city before. The pack territory had been forests and villages. The refuge had been stone and earth. But this—this was something else entirely.Buildings stretched toward the sky like giant fingers. Lights blazed from every window. Cars flooded the streets in endless streams. People rushed past me, their faces blank, their eyes fixed forward.I stood at the edge of it all, frozen.Where was I supposed to go?What was I supposed to do?I had no money. No food. No shelter. No one to help me.I was completely, utterly alone.---The first night in the

Chapter: Come With Me~Aria's POV~One afternoon, I found myself near the village square.A crowd had gathered around a large building. People were going in and out, carrying bags and baskets. There was a sign above the door, but I could not read it.I watched from the shadows.A woman walked past, carrying a loaf of bread. My stomach twisted painfully.I stepped forward."Please," I said. "Please, can you help me? I'm so hungry. I haven't eaten in days."She looked at me. Her expression was not kind. It was wary. Suspicious."Get away from me," she said sharply. "You look like a beggar.""I am a beggar. I need help—""Go to the church. They deal with your kind."And she walked away.I stood there, frozen.Your kind.What kind was that? The hungry kind? The desperate kind? The invisible kind?It did not matter.No one wanted me here either.I thought about the pack house again. About the way the higher-ranked wolves had looked at me. About the way they had turned their noses up when I passed. The way they

Chapter: Human World~Aria's POV~The human world hit me like a wall.The first thing I noticed was the noise. Cars rumbled down paved streets. Voices shouted from every direction. Music blared from open windows. Machines hummed and beeped and whirred in a constant, overwhelming chorus.I stood at the edge of the village called Oakhaven, clutching my small packet of supplies, and felt completely lost.The buildings were strange. Tall and boxy, made of materials I did not recognize. The people moved quickly, their faces blank, their eyes fixed on glowing rectangles they held in their hands.No one looked at me.No one cared that I was here.I was invisible all over again.---The first night was the worst.I found shelter in an alley behind a large building. The ground was hard and cold. The smell was terrible. Rats skittered in the shadows, their beady eyes watching me.I pressed my back against the wall and hugged my knees to my chest.The thread in my chest was silent. Completely, utterly silent.I coul

Chapter: Don't Look Back~Aria's POV~"I'm tired of being afraid. If the human world is my only escape, then I'll take it. I'll learn to survive there."Mira was quiet for a long moment. Then she said, "There's something else you need to know."I waited."The human world—" She paused. "It's not just dangerous for physical reasons. It's dangerous because you'll be completely cut off from your wolf. From your instincts. From the bond."I felt my chest tighten."Your mate," she continued. "Kieran. If you go to the human world, you won't be able to feel him anymore. The thread between you will go silent. Maybe permanently."I opened my mouth. Closed it. Opened it again."Permanently?""The bond needs proximity to stay strong. If you're too far apart for too long—" She shook her head. "It doesn't always fade completely. But it gets harder to feel. Harder to hear. Harder to find your way back."I pressed my hand to my chest. The thread pulsed gently beneath my palm. Warm. Alive. Present.If I went to the human worl

Chapter: You're Trying To Scare Me~Aria's POV~The refuge erupted into chaos after the stranger disappeared.Wolves ran in every direction. Voices overlapped in frantic questions. Mira stood at the center, her face carved from stone, issuing orders with sharp precision."Secure the eastern entrance. Double the patrols. No one enters or leaves without my permission."I watched from the edge of the common area, my hands trembling at my sides. The thread in my chest pulsed erratically, a warning I could not ignore.Adrian had found me.I did not know how. I did not know why. But I knew it was him. The stranger. The wolf who had manipulated that poor young boy into letting him inside.He was here.And he would not stop until he had me.---Hours passed. The refuge settled into a tense silence.Mira called a meeting with the elders. I was not invited. I sat in my small room, hugging my knees to my chest, listening to the muffled voices through the stone walls.My mother sat across from me, her face pale."Aria," she said s

Chapter: It Had Been a Trap~Aira's POV~The days passed slowly.I learned the rhythm of the refuge. Wake up. Work. Eat. Sleep. Repeat.Mira assigned me tasks—simple ones at first. Sweeping the common areas. Helping in the garden. Sorting supplies in the storage room.The other wolves were kind to me. They did not ask questions. They did not stare. They simply accepted me as one of their own.It should have been comforting.But the thread in my chest pulsed constantly, a reminder of what I had left behind.Kieran.I could not stop thinking about him.---"You're thinking about him again," Mira said one afternoon.I looked up from my work. I had been sorting dried herbs, but my hands had stopped moving."What?""Your mate." She sat down across from me. "You have that look.""I don't have a look."She smiled gently. "I've been doing this for thirty years, Aria. I know a bonded wolf when I see one."I looked away."Tell me about him."I shook my head. "There's nothing to tell.""There's always something to tell."I

Chapter: Let Him Go[Natasha's POV]I looked at Bucky, at the man I loved, at the father of my child."Let him go," I said, my voice a low, dangerous growl.The man laughed, a cold, cruel sound that echoed in the vast emptiness of the roof. "I don't think so.""Then I'll make you," I snarled, and then I lunged.***I watched in horror as she threw herself at him, a red-haired avenging angel, a warrior queen. She was a blur of motion and fury, a whirlwind of fists and feet. She was magnificent. She was deadly. She was mine.And then I saw it. The glint of metal. The flash of a blade. A spray of crimson.She staggered back, her hand flying to her stomach. A look of surprise on her face. A question in her eyes. A single, perfect tear tracing a path through the grime and blood on her cheek."Natasha..." I whispered, a strangled cry of agony.He was on her in a flash, a predator sensing weakness. He grabbed her, a cruel smirk on his face, a gun to her head."One more step, and she's dead," he snarled, his eye

Chapter: Chapter 131: For Him[Natasha's POV]In the darkness, I couldn't see anything but the metal of the walkway and the railing, my hands gripping the latter tightly as I made my way forward.Where are we going, Mama?We're going to find our way out, I told him. Just you and me.I don't want to be here."Shhh," I said aloud. "It's okay." And it was. The catwalk curved, and just as it did, a single bulb flickered on up ahead, casting a yellowish light down the length of the corridor. The light caught the dust motes dancing in the air, and for a second, I thought I saw movement. But it was just the shadows playing tricks on me.Still, my instincts screamed at me.There was a soft click, and the light behind me came on as well, flooding the space with a warm, almost friendly glow. That was when I saw him.He was standing at the end of the catwalk, a tall, lanky figure silhouetted in the gloom. He was dressed in a black combat suit, and a rifle was slung over his shoulder.

Chapter: Chapter 130: Just An Adventure[ Natasha's POV ]The world unfolded before me in a riot of color and sound. The first things I became aware of were the sounds of the tires slidding along the pavement. The next sensation that came to me was the familiar feeling of my bow in my hands, the fletching of an arrow that was nocked just millimeters from my cheek. We were in motion. In a van. Bucky was driving, his knuckles whtie against the steering wheel and a grim set to his jaw. Sam was in the front passenger's seat, his eyes locked on the tablet in his lap. On the glowing surface was a satellite's view of the city, a blinking red light marking our location." Hawkeye, you with us? " Sam asked. His tone was clipped, professional. No time for banter." I'm here. " I replied, forcing myself upright. " Status? "" Nat's tracking signal went dark five minutes ago after she triggered a complete base alarm. " He said, without looking up.

Chapter: Chapter 129: Almost There, My Love[ Natasha's POV ]The world narrowed to the warm weight in my arms and the frantic pounding of my own heart. I held Ivan's face against my shoulder, muffling his small whimpers of pain against my jacket. He felt so small, so fragile. A bird with a broken wing. My bird. My blood. My son. The red lights painted us in their violent glow, a strobe that pulsed with my building rage. The blare of the alarm was a physical thing, a pressure against my eardrums, demanding action."Close your eyes, solnyshko," I whispered into his hair, my lips brushing against the soft strands. "Mama has you. Just hold on."My senses, honed by years of survival, sharpened to a razor's edge. The air tasted of antiseptic and fear. I could hear the shuffle of boots getting closer, the metallic click of safeties being disengaged, the shouted commands in Russian that crackled over the alarm. They were closing the net.I scanned the room, a predator calculating its escape. My eyes landed on a steel medical trolley,

Chapter: Chapter 128: Kill Her, Volkov[Natasha's POV]This was not an ordinary research facility. This was a fortress. I pulled the Audi several hundreds of meters back on the road, turning off the engine. It was very quiet there, and the cold air roared in my lungs as I stepped out of the car. I stood there for a moment, taking in the scenery. Letting the anger cool down to a numb feeling at the pit of my stomach. This was it. The end of the road. I took a photo from my pocket, running my thumb over the edges of the paper. Warm from the body heat. Come now.The night was good to me. I waited until the moon was covered by the clouds, creating long shadows that danced on the road ahead. I moved like a phantom through the woods, my boots crunching on the snow. The cold seeped under my skin, filling empty spaces, numbing the senses. I welcomed the pain since there was no room for anything else. Not weakness and certainly not doubts.The fence was a problem. Everything had its solution, even this. I walked the length of the f

Chapter: Chapter 127: Institut Genève de Recherche Médicale[Natasha's PO V] I walked toward the altar, my hands empty. He relaxed, just a fraction. That was all I needed.I kicked the loose stone. It skittered across the floor, revealing a small, hollow space. A tiny, metal data drive lay inside.I bent down to pick it up.He moved.A blade flashed in the dim light, hidden in a sheath strapped to his wrist. He lunged, a fast, silent, deadly strike aimed at my back.But I was already moving. I dropped to the floor, rolling under the altar as the blade sliced through the air where my neck had been. I came up behind him, my own blade—his stiletto, the one I had taken from the tavern—in my hand.He spun around, his face a mask of rage and surprise. He was fast, but I was faster. I was a fluidity of motion he couldn't comprehend, a ghost of a memory he had never seen.I disarmed him, the stiletto skittering across the stone floor. I slammed him against the altar, my forearm against his throat."The book," I choked him. "You're not getting the boo

However, isn't the meal usually free?" Izhi whispered."This isn't paradise, Izhi, where you can eat at any time you like."
