Chapter: CHAPTER TWENTY-FOURI walked back home, my mind still replaying everything that happened at the infirmary.Valerie knew about the beast.If she knew, then she must have heard it from her father. But if she knew about the beast, what else had she heard? How much more did she know about me?She might even know more about me than I did.Perhaps that was why she could threaten me so confidently. She knew she had something powerful enough to use against me, something that could expose my secret to the elders.And if her parents knew, then my parents probably knew too.I wasn't surprised though. But why are they keeping the answers from me?I had spent most of my life wondering why I was different. Why didn't I have a wolf? Why did I possess strange powers that I couldn't explain?And all this time, the people around me already know the answers.I felt betrayed.How could someone know so much about my own past while I knew almost nothing?The thought made my chest ache.Instead of going home, I decided to go t

Chapter: CHAPTER TWENTY-THREESERAPHINA'S POVI stood rooted to the spot.For several seconds, I found it difficult to breathe.My childhood best friend, the girl I had once trusted with everything and Amara, the girl who had spent weeks trying every way possible to make my life miserable and send me out of this pack, were working together.And they were planning to kill me.I had come here because I wanted to know why Valerie, an alpha's daughter, had suddenly left her home and started living in another pack. Why had she suddenly appeared in my life again after all these times?I never expected to hear my own death being discussed.I wanted to barge inside and confront them, but on second thought, I decided against it. Since they were desperate enough to kill me, confronting them now seem like a wrong move, I don't know what they might do next.And I definitely wasn't ready to die yet.I wanted to run away, but at the same time, I needed to know what else they were going to say.So I pressed myself against the wi

Chapter: CHAPTER TWENTY-TWOSERAPHINA'S POVI spent the entire night tossing and turning in my bed.I tried everything I could think of to fall asleep. I counted numbers, I changed positions, I even had to bury my head underneath my pillow, hoping I could somehow force myself to sleep but nothing worked.Every time I closed my eyes, the image of the man at the cliff appeared in my mind.His weird smile.That unsettling look in his eyes.The way he had deliberately followed me while keeping his face hidden, and then just before he died, he had looked directly at me and smiled.A sinister smile that had sent chills down my spine.I didn't recognize him.Why was he following me?And more importantly..who sent him?I pulled the blanket tighter around myself.The more I thought about it, the more questions filled my mind.What if he had information about my past?Maybe that's why he refused to tell Ronan anything. Perhaps he knew Ronan would torture him until he revealed the truth, so he had chosen death instead.But

Chapter: CHAPTER TWENTY-ONETHIRD PERSON POVAmara stood in the shadows, watching.From where she stood opposite Seraphina’s house, she had a perfect view of the porch where Seraphina sat with Alpha Ronan with alpha Ronan standing in front of her.It was late at night, and most of the pack members had already retired to their homes. The entire street was quiet, but Amara had been standing there for over thirty minutes, completely lost in her thoughts as she watched the two people who had been making her miserable for some days now.She should have gone home.But instead, she remained rooted to the spot, her arms tightly folded across her chest as she kept staring at the both of them.Their expressions didn’t suggest that they were having a pleasant conversation. They both looked serious, as if they were discussing something important. But then, Seraphina said something that made Ronan smile.That smile made Amara more jealous, she had spent years imagining herself being the reason behind his smile.She had alway

Chapter: CHAPTER TWENTYI stared at Liam’s arm in shock.I couldn’t process what I was seeing.The wound that was there last night were gone.I slowly reached out and touched his arm, as though I expected the wound to suddenly reappear beneath my fingertips.Nothing.His skin was smooth and untouched, as though he was injured in the first place.“This is unbelievable,” I whispered.Liam looked down at his arm too, his expression as confused as mine.“It really is,” he said. “My arm was bleeding so badly last night. There should at least be some sign of it now, a scar or bruise. But there’s nothing.” “I’m beyond shocked right now. How did it disappear that quickly? Your wolf definitely didn’t do this.” I said, lowering my voice.He frowned.“What makes you think so?”“Because I’ve seen wolves heal before. Even minor injuries don’t heal this fast.” I pointed at his arm. Liam glanced around before whispering so my parents wouldn't hear us.“So you think it’s related to the Umbra Beast’s powers?”“Yeah I think

Chapter: CHAPTER NINETEENFor the first time in a long time, I slowly began to feel like I was living a normal life again. It might look normal to some people, but this was normal for me.Wake up, get dressed, go to class, have lunch with my friends and laugh over the silliest things. Listen to the teacher without getting distracted by the ‘lack of wolf’ problems and then go back home to a lunch made by Mom.It sounded so simple, but right now, it felt strange especially after everything I had been through.There was a time when I questioned my reason for existing. I constantly wondered why I had been born without a wolf and why I possessed strange powers despite being wolfless.Those questions were still unanswered, but a few hours with Evelyn and Roland, or an evening walk with Ronan, managed to make me forget about them for a while.I still couldn't believe how quickly Roland became part of our little group.He had only been around for a few days, yet somehow, it felt like he had been our friend for years.
