Chapter: 115.☆☆ SUMMER’S POV ☆☆I didn’t know how long I slept. When I finally stirred, the first thing that hit me wasn’t light or sound. It was aroma. Savory, rich, mouthwatering. Something with garlic, herbs… maybe chicken?For a second, I thought I was dreaming. Because food that good only belonged in dreams. One time in eighth grade, I dreamt I was eating cotton candy. Turned out I was chewing my pillow.And the worst part? Keith walked in and witnessed the whole thing. That boy just never knew how to knock. For months, it was “Pillow Girl this, Pillow Girl that.” I hated that nickname with a burning passion.But then I remembered, this was Hayden’s place. The man cooked like it was his side hustle. I sat up lazily, pulling my hair out of my face.“Oh God,” I mumbled weakly. My entire body still felt like Jell-O despite all that sleep. I reached for my phone on the nightstand—past six in the evening. Eight hours gone. Just like that. I shoved the blanket aside, ready to stand—then froze.I w

Chapter: 115.☆☆SUMMER’S POV☆☆Keep a secret from Hayden? Sure. I could. If it meant protecting him. But staring at JT, I realized Hayden never told me anything about this man. Danger didn’t just hang around him—it was who he was.“JT…” I hesitated. “What do I have to do?”“Nothing much. Just find out more about Tara, and ask your best friend about his sister’s death. Don’t ask how I know about you and Jake. I think somehow, Hayden knows the truth and is only trying to forget it on purpose.”“What do you mean? He doesn’t remember. Didn’t he tell you about it?”The look in JT’s eyes told me otherwise. Hayden didn’t tell him about what really happened. I closed the gap between us. My voice was a hushed whisper as I said,“Hayden had an accident after Nancy died. He believes he killed her.”“Did he?”JT didn’t sound surprised. My glare cut through him.“Of course not. I don’t think Hayden could do something like that.”“Are you sure?”“I’m positive.”I filled JT in about Hayden’s accident and amnesia

Chapter: 114.☆☆ SUMMER’S POV ☆☆The doctor led JT and I to his office. He shut the door behind us and motioned for us to sit. We did. “I wanted to speak to his father privately because… the situation is unusual,” the doctor began.“Like I said, I am his uncle. This is his girlfriend. Whatever it is, you can tell us. We'll pass it across to his father,” said JT.I didn’t speak, just folded my hands on my laps. I shifted in my chair, stomach twisting. The doctor opened Hayden’s chart, flipping pages with deliberate slowness. “When the patient was brought in, he was unresponsive. His vitals were dangerously unstable: Oxygen saturation dropping, pulse irregular. But the tests didn’t show infection, no signs of acute illness. Nothing that should have caused it.”I held my breath, my hands clenching into fists.“And then,” the doctor continued, his voice lowering, “we ran a toxicology screen.” He paused, letting the words settle. “There were sedatives in his bloodstream. High concentrations. Enough to

Chapter: 113.☆☆SUMMER’S POV☆☆Hayden wasn’t breathing right. I shook him, my hands trembling so badly I could barely grip his shoulders.“Hayden? Is this a joke? Hayden? Wake up.”He didn’t move. I shook him harder.“Babe?”Nothing.Panic crawled in. How the fuck did this happen? What exactly happened? I had no idea. He was just asleep and now… this? I was so confused and frightened.“Hayden! Wake up!” My voice cracked. “Please—don’t do this to me!”Nothing. His skin was damp, slick with sweat, his chest heaving like his lungs were fighting him. A choked sound tore from my throat as I grabbed his phone, but my hands slipped, fingers numb. My own phone. Where’s my damn phone?I fumbled on the nightstand, found it, and hit 911.“Emergency services, what’s your—”“My boyfriend’s not—he’s not waking up! He just—he collapsed and—he’s burning up, please, I don’t know what’s happening!” My voice was high, broken, choking over itself.“Ma’am, calm down. Give me the address.”I rattled it off, heart slammi

Chapter: 112.☆☆SUMMER’S POV☆☆“You’re lying.”A flicker. Barely there. But I saw it—the flash of something raw in his eyes before he shut it down again.“I wish I was,” he said. “There’s a scar on my scalp. The back of my head. I had an accident a few days after Nancy died. I wasn’t supposed to live. But I woke up in the hospital. The doctor said it was a miracle. I couldn’t remember anything that happened for the last couple of weeks. I called Nancy, forgetting she was already dead.”My throat tightened. “And you expect me to believe you killed her?”Hayden’s gaze locked onto mine, unblinking, dangerous in its stillness. I slipped my hand from him, stepped back, hands running through my hair.“It’s not true.”“I did it, Summer.”“I don’t believe you’re capable of doing anything like that.”“But you don’t know me.”“I do,” I yelled, heart shattering.Silence stretched between us. The only sound pounding in my ears was the sound of my ragged breaths.“I do, Hayden,” I whispered. “I know you. You ma

Chapter: 111.☆☆SUMMER’S POV☆☆🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹The drive back to Hayden’s apartment feels like drowning in silence, except my brain apparently didn’t get the memo. It is screaming like crazy.The city lights smear across the windows, neon bleeding into shadows like the world is melting—a perfect reflection of my disaster of a life. Everything’s a fucking mess. And surprise, surprise—I’m the common denominator. Again. And again. And again.If I hadn’t been so blinded by Hayden’s sexy hands, his mouth, his everything, maybe Jake wouldn’t have walked in on us fucking. Naked. Entirely, tragically naked.What the actual fuck was that?My best friend. Silent. Staring at me fucking his brother. His eyes wide like a deer caught in the headlights of the most embarrassing moment of my fucking life. If I survive this emotional damage, I deserve an award. Fuck yeah, I deserve a big shiny award.Oh God!Hayden hasn’t said a single word since we left the mansion. I should take that as a good sign. I should shut up. B

Broken trust: Luna's awakening
“Maybe I'll come back later. I'm sorry,” I said, tension strangling my voice.
“No, please. Stay!” He said in a calm tone. I looked at him hysterically, and, like he had just recognised his own nudity, he smiled confidently. “I'll just put on something if you're uncomfortable.”
“Uncomfortable?” I scoffed, trying to sound assuring. “No, I'm not uncomfortable. I've seen a lot of naked boys.”
He shot a glance at me, sending a thrill running down my chest. “Boys?” He asked, closing the distance between us.
He grabbed my left hand and placed it on his hard breast, his heart beating steady, a stark contrast to mine, which raced like an antelope running from a predator in a jungle.
“Well… I've seen a lot of naked boys, but not a naked man…” I whispered softly, gazing and feeling lost in his starry eyes.

Chapter: CHAPTER 141: Happily ever after?NARAH'S POV Arthur and Dahlia. Oh dear! Arthur and Dahlia visited and asked for forgiveness, but I had already forgiven them. Besides, I became friends with their son, Luca. He was a really nice kid. Hanadin and Rachael started dating with her father's permission. Beta Henry had a change of heart toward Hanadin. Although, he said Hanadin was weird. Bryan asked Liora out, and she responded with a big fat “No.” Good heavens, she had been avoiding him recently. He wouldn't stop accompanying her wherever she went, and he promised he would wait for her until she changed her mind. “Or until he meets his fated mate,” Liora told me when recounting the story of how he tailed her to the store when she went to get groceries with Cindy. Bryan and Jeremiah got closer and became inseparable. Beta Solomon's wife still didn't like Bryan, but Jeremiah didn’t care and told her it wasn't Bryan's fault that her husband slept with another woman and brought forth a son—Bryan. How sweet. Br

Chapter: CHAPTER 140: Home is where the heart isNARAH’S POV It was finally over. The Moon Jade was gone. The weight that had burdened so many for centuries had finally been lifted. I could feel the peace settling into my bones, like the calm after a storm. The power that had once ruled over so many was now nothing but dust and memory. The curse was broken, and it was over. When I focused all of my powers into extracting it from Beta Bernard, my mind was disturbed by memories of how the Jade had been passed down through generations. Many years after Jenna and Ophelia's death, the farmers working on the land to build a bridge dug up Jenna's remains from her grave, and that was how they discovered the Moon Jade. It was later passed on from one Alpha to another, a King to another, a governor, a Duke, a duchess, and they all had one name for it: “the cursed gemstone” due to the number of people who had died because of it. Many had tried to destroy the Moon Jade, but it wouldn't budge. So, it was sold to a princess who gav

Chapter: CHAPTER 139: The cost of battleNARAH'S POV I couldn’t afford to break down in front of Alpha Van, not now. I forced my lips into a smile, but even I could see how hollow it was. I wasn’t okay—nothing about this was okay—but I couldn’t let him carry that burden alone. “I'm good. Are you okay?” “My love... I’m sorry,” he whispered, his voice full of raw emotion. “I can't let you fight all by yourself.” “You don't have to worry, ” I assured him, the vacant emptiness in my eyes returning, revealing the presence of my hybrid wolf. “We’ll fix this. Together.” Minisi had done her part—to protect the foetus, but now, if she didn't lend me her full strength, there would be no home for my unborn child, or the people of Vaelothor to live in. My bones groaned in protest as they stretched, snapping and dislocating with a sickening crunch. A searing pain tore through my muscles, each shift a fresh agony, my skin stretching and tearing as though it couldn’t contain the transformation. The heat from within radiated o

Chapter: CHAPTER 138: The battle between light and dark NARAH'S POV Van’s muscles bulged with effort as he absorbed the impact, his body seizing under the power with a coldness such as I had never seen. I could feel his pain through the bond we shared.With a guttural scream, his body surged forward, breaking through the dark energy like a battering ram. He wasn’t fully healed, but he was strong—strong enough to fight for us.Beta Bernard's eyes widened in surprise. He had expected the lethal force to end Alpha Van's life in the frightful encounter.“Thank goodness,” I muttered under my breath, taking a stand by Curtis's (Alpha Van) side.He had taken a blow meant for me. I was more than grateful that he had, but I just prayed that he was truly okay and that nothing awful would happen to him.He didn’t let Beta Bernard’s attack stop him. He was back, fighting for what was right, and I fought by his side.“Change of plan,” Beta Bernard said, blocking my kicks. “I'm going to kill both of you right here.”“I'd like to see you try,” I raved.

Chapter: CHAPTER 137: The truth there isNARAH'S POV Standing face to face with Van's direwolf, my heart leaped for joy. As my hands slowly trailed over its soft, stunning black fur, it growled tenderly, leaning its head on my arm.Suddenly, with the speed of light, Beta Bernard grabbed me from the side, lifting me into the air, his laughter cutting through the atmosphere like a blade.“Let me go,” I shouted, the wisps of my breath curling in the air as I wriggled in his arms. I could see Alpha Van's wolf running after us, its gaze drifting toward the sky now and then. I didn't even get a moment more to rejoice at his breaking free.Although I had initially wanted to get to Beta Bernard, now that I was soaring about twenty thousand feet above the ground and knowing he had the power to throw me off at any moment, I had a change of heart.“I'll show you what real power looks like,” he said, focusing above as he rose higher.My heart was pounding rapidly, my stomach churning with every gust of air I breathed in. “Murdering p

Chapter: CHAPTER 136: PowerNARAH'S POV I wiped my tears, smiling and nodding, but it was only for a split second before the creature pounced on me, pinning me to the ground. It seemed to be fighting with the voices in its head, staggering back, growling, and throwing punches at its own head.My heart hammered in my chest as my shuddering legs managed to find the strength to support me. Frantically, I dashed through the clearing once more. However, Beta Bernard was no longer in sight. The creature—Van— was hot on my heels again, a twisted shadow of the man I loved. Each desperate step felt like it could be my last, but there was no time to stop.No! I couldn't stop. Not now, not when Beta Bernard was still out there, controlling everything and planning to destroy people's lives.I glanced over my shoulder just in time to see Alpha Van stumble again, his paws pounding the earth, his body fighting against the unnatural force that gripped him.It was as if a part of him, deep inside, was beginning to take charge,
