Chapter: Chapter 8 They Are Already HereGina’s POVSilence doesn’t feel like silence anymore.Not after hearing those words.They’re calling her name.The warrior collapsed to the floor, blood pooling beneath him, his breath shallow and broken. No one moved at first. No one even seemed to understand what they had just heard.Then panic exploded.“No… no, that’s impossible!”“Hundreds of creatures?”“Calling her name?”“That’s a trick this is her doing!”The hall turned into chaos again, but I couldn’t hear most of it.My body felt frozen.My name.They were calling my name.Gabriel’s hand tightened around my waist instantly, pulling me slightly closer without even thinking. His body shielded mine completely now, like instinct had taken over thought.“Stay behind me,” he said low.I didn’t argue.Not because I agreed.Because something inside me… shifted at his touch.The whispers in my head had gone quiet again.But the silence felt worse.Selene stepped forward slowly, her eyes fixed on the warrior.“Where are they now?” s

Chapter: Chapter 7: The Trial Of The CursedGina’s POVThe council hall smelled like fear.Not mine.Theirs.I felt it the moment Gabriel led me through the massive wooden doors while whispers exploded around us. Elders sat in a half-circle beneath silver moon symbols carved into stone walls, their faces tense as hundreds of villagers crowded behind them.Watching me.Judging me.Waiting.I had entered this hall only twice in my life before tonight.The first time was after Rowan died.The second was after the fifth man.Both times ended the same way.People screaming for my death.Gabriel’s hand remained wrapped around mine as we walked forward, steady and warm against my cold fingers.The entire room noticed.Murmurs spread instantly.“He’s still touching her…”“How is he alive?”“This isn’t normal…”No.None of this was normal anymore.I tried pulling my hand away quietly, but Gabriel only tightened his grip slightly without even looking at me.A warning.Stay still.I hated how that single gesture made something in my chest

Chapter: Chapter 6 They Want Me DeadGina's POVBy sunrise, the entire pack already knew.I could feel it before I even stepped outside.The tension. The whispers. The fear crawling through the air like poison.Elias's body had been discovered before dawn.And somehow, the story had spread even faster than death itself.The cursed girl was seen in the woods again. A creature appeared. Another man died near her.I pulled my cloak tighter around my body as I walked through the narrow road leading toward the market. Usually, I avoided crowded places after incidents like this.But I had no food left in the cabin.And starving in isolation sounded less appealing than surviving people's stares for ten minutes.Unfortunately, the moment I entered the village square, conversations stopped.Every head turned toward me.A child near the bakery immediately hid behind his mother.An elderly man spat on the ground."Monster," someone muttered loudly enough for me to hear.I kept walking.Do not react. Do not look at them. Do not let

Chapter: Chapter 5 The Thing In The WoodsGina's POVThe growl didn't sound human.It didn't sound like a wolf either.It was deeper.Wet.Like something rotting had learned how to breathe.Every instinct inside me screamed to run.Gabriel slowly moved one arm in front of me, shielding me behind him while his eyes stayed fixed on the darkness between the trees.I hated how relieved that made me feel."No matter what happens," he said quietly, "stay behind me."I almost laughed.Stay behind him?If the curse activated, I was probably more dangerous than whatever lurked in those woods.But before I could argue, the creature stepped forward.Moon Goddess.My stomach twisted violently.It looked almost wolf-like, but wrong in every possible way. Its limbs were too long, its gray skin stretched tightly over visible bones while black veins crawled across its body like living shadows.Its eyes glowed pale white.Empty.Dead.A sharp breath escaped me.I had seen creatures in my life before. Rogues. Wild wolves. Even cursed beasts wa

Chapter: Chapter 4 The Curse That Followed HerGina's POVI barely slept that night.Every time I closed my eyes, I saw Gabriel standing in front of me in the market.Alive.His hand around my wrist. His silver eyes fixed on mine. The warmth of his skin against mine.I turned sharply beneath the blankets, frustrated with myself.Why was I thinking about him this much?Men had approached me before.Not many, but enough.Some were curious. Some were arrogant enough to think the curse was a lie. Others simply believed they were stronger than death itself.None survived.That should have happened to Gabriel too.But it didn't.The memory alone made my chest tighten strangely.Outside, the wind rattled the windows of my cabin while moonlight spilled across the wooden floor. The forest surrounding my home was unusually quiet tonight.Too quiet.Usually I could hear owls or wolves in the distance.Tonight there was nothing.A bad feeling slowly crept into my stomach.I sat up immediately.My wolf stirred uneasily beneath my skin.Somethi

Chapter: Chapter 3 The Girl In The WoodsGabriel's POVI noticed her long before I touched her.Long before I knew her name.Long before the entire market looked at me like I had just shaken hands with death itself.The first time I saw her was three months ago.It was raining that night.Not ordinary rain either. It was the kind that soaked through skin and bone, carrying the scent of wet earth and storm across the forest. I had been returning from the southern borders after settling a dispute between two smaller packs.Darius kept talking beside me about patrol routes and warriors, but my wolf had stopped listening.Because something strange entered the air.A scent.Soft jasmine. Winter smoke. And sadness.That was the only way I could describe it.Sadness.My wolf reacted instantly.Every muscle inside me tightened as the scent drifted through the trees. I remember slowing my horse unconsciously, searching the darkness around us.Then I saw her.A girl standing near the river.Her dark cloak covered most of her body whil
