Chapter: Chapter 61Griffen's Point of View The plates are cleared away, and I find myself smiling without even realizing it. Dinner passes in a blur of laughter and easy conversation, the kind that makes time feel like it is slipping too quickly. I swirl the last of my water in my glass as Cole leans back in his chair, a satisfied grin on his face. “Guess we should head back before they lock the gates and leave us stranded,” he teases, standing and offering me his hand. I roll my eyes but slip my hand into his, warmth sparking at the contact. “That would be one way to make this night unforgettable.” We thank the waiter and step out into the cool evening air. The sky is brushed with fading pinks and deepening blues, stars just beginning to prick through. Cole leads me back to his car, and the ride is quiet at first, but not in an awkward way. The silence feels comfortable, filled with the memory of laughter still lingering between us. I watch the trees blur past the window, the hum of the engin

Chapter: Chapter 60Aria's Point of View Two days have passed since the party, since that kiss with Cole under the stars. I did not expect it to mean so much, but it lingers in the back of my mind, warm and steady in a way I did not think I would feel again so soon. We have spent more time together since then, studying, sparring, just walking across campus, and little by little, the walls around my heart do not feel quite as unbreakable. A knock at the door pulls me out of my thoughts. “Come in,” I call, sitting up on my bed. The door cracks open, and Cole steps inside, that easy smile tugging at his lips. “Hey,” he says, running a hand through his hair. “I was wondering if you wanted to grab something to eat with me. I am starving, and I figured good company makes food taste better.” I cannot help the small laugh that escapes me. “Is that your way of bribing me into keeping you entertained at dinner?” “Exactly,” he says with a grin. I slip off the bed, grabbing my jacket from the chair. “A

Chapter: Chapter 59Griffen's Point of ViewI have sent three messages to Maddox since the night of the attack, and not a single one has been answered. Each time I check my phone, I half expect to see his name light up the screen, but it stays dark. The silence gnaws at me. Maddox does not ignore me, not unless he is planning something big. And that thought makes my stomach twist tighter with every passing hour.I am pacing my dorm room when the door swings open without warning. Brandon strolls in, his hands shoved into his pockets, his easy grin clashing with the storm in my head.“There is a party tonight,” he announces it like it is the cure for everything. “Half the school is already there. I figured that I would drag you along before you rot in here.”I frown, about to tell him that I am not in the mood, but then I catch myself. Maybe he is right. Sitting here alone, replaying Aria’s words and Maddox’s silence, is eating me alive. A distraction, even for a couple of hours, might be exactly what I ne

Chapter: Chapter 58Aria's Point of View By the time classes end, I am drained. My head aches from holding myself together all day, but as I step back into our dorm room, Maren is already buzzing with excitement. She is sprawled across her bed with clothes tossed everywhere, skirts, tops, even a pair of glittery heels that look like they belong on a runway. “There you are,” she says, popping up on her elbows. “I was starting to think you would back out on me.” “I almost did,” I admit with a small laugh, closing the door behind me. “But I promised Cole I would show up, and now I promised you too.” “Exactly.” She hops off her bed and starts holding up shirts against me before I can even sit down. “Okay, so what are we thinking? Fun but not too much? Casual but still cute? Because trust me, if you show up in one of those floor length skirts, people will think you are somebody’s mom.” I snort, shaking my head. “I like my skirts.” “I know, but tonight we are doing something different.” Maren pulls

Chapter: Chapter 57Aria's Point of ViewI slip into the lecture hall just as the professor is setting up at the front. Cole is already in his seat near the middle, leaning back casually in his chair, his notebook open but still untouched. His eyes catch mine, and he tips his head towards the empty seat next to him.As soon as I slide into it, he leans closer to me, his voice low so it does not carry. “Where were you this morning? I did not see you at breakfast. Is everything okay?”I force a small smile, and nod my head though my stomach is still knotted from earlier. “Yeah. There was… some trouble back at home. My brother needed me to go with him and help sort a few things out. But it is fine now.”Cole studies me for a second, like he wants to press, but then he just nods his head, offering me the easy kind of grin that makes him seem unbothered by anything. “Good. I am glad that you are here, then.”The professor’s voice carries through the room, words about treaties and shifting alliances filling th

Chapter: Chapter 56Griffen's Point of ViewThe cafeteria hums with the usual midday chaos, clattering trays, bursts of laughter, snippets of gossip floating through the air. Brandon sits across from me, shoving fries into his mouth and going on about some training drill we have got later, but I am only half listening to him. My mind keeps drifting back to last night in the clearing, to Maddox, to the way the pack charged into the territory before I could stop them.I shove another bite of food into my mouth, trying to drown out my restless thoughts, when the air suddenly shifts.I do not even have to look up to know who it is. I feel her before I see her.Aria.Her footsteps are sharp, purposeful, and the moment she reaches the table, the whole room feels like it tightens around me. She does not hesitate, she does not flinch, she does not even look at Brandon, her eyes are locked on me like I am the only thing that exists.“We need to talk,” she says, her voice steady, but there is fire under the surfac

Chapter: Epilogue 2Griffen's Point of View The forest is quiet, cloaked in shadows, the trees swaying gently in the breeze as I wait beneath their cover. The moonlight slices through the branches in thin beams, and I shift my weight from one foot to the other, every crackle of a twig beneath me echoing louder than I want it to. I know this place too well now, the path Aria always takes when she sneaks out. She thinks no one notices, but I do. I always do. Today was their eighteenth birthday celebration. The entire pack was buzzing about it all week, the biggest event Dark Moon has hosted since their shift celebration. Rosalee had even invited me, her voice soft and kind like it always is. Like I deserved her kindness. I told her I wasn’t feeling well. Another excuse. Another lie. She didn’t question it, she never does. Just gave me that small smile and said she’d save me a slice of cake. I almost feel bad. Almost. Because Rosalee is… good. Too good for someone like me. She’s been the closest thing

Chapter: Epilogue 1Rosalee's Point of ViewEleven years later.The morning sun filters in through the kitchen windows, casting golden streaks across the countertops as I move between them, hands full with trays of freshly baked pastries. The scent of cinnamon and sugar wraps around me like a warm hug, but I can’t stop the swell of disbelief in my chest.Sixteen.Aria and Leo are shifting for the first time tonight.I pause at the counter, a hand pressed lightly to my heart as I glance out the window. The backyard is a flurry of activity, banners being strung between trees, tables covered in white linens, fairy lights already wound around the wooden posts of the deck. Ronan and Josh are setting up the fire pit, and Natalie is laughing as she tries to keep the younger kids from running underfoot. Piper and Lillian are arranging flowers on the center tables while Jensen helps Marcel carry chairs from the storage shed.It’s beautiful, more than I imagined. But still, I can’t quite wrap my head around the fa

Chapter: Chapter 185Rosalee's Point of View One month later. The sun filters warmly through the trees, casting dappled golden light across the backyard. The summer air is soft and fragrant, and from my seat on the back porch, I can hear the soft hum of insects and the rustle of leaves in the breeze. But mostly, I hear the kids. Aria shrieks with laughter as Leo chases her around the tree with a stick he’s declared is now a “magic sword.” They tumble and giggle, their wild little world spinning with energy and joy. And just a few feet behind them, slower, quieter, Griffen. He doesn’t laugh the way they do. Not yet. He runs after them, a step or two behind, eyes watching every movement, trying to mimic it, trying to blend in. His shoulders stay tense, his hands often clench and unclench at his sides, like he's bracing for something. And when he smiles, it’s fleeting, uncertain… but it's there. I wrap my fingers around my cup of tea, warm against my palms, and watch as Aria suddenly doubles back, grabb

I sit on the couch, folding a tiny shirt fresh from the dryer, when my phone rings beside me.Jensen’s name lights up the screen.My heart skips a beat. I answer quickly, bringing the phone to my ear. “Hey, is everything okay?”His voice is quiet, tired. “It’s done, Rose. Thorne is dead.”I pause, taking in the weight of those words. “Are you alright?”“I don’t know,” he admits, his voice rough. “But… there’s something else. Thorne’s son, he’s just a boy. Eight. Selene got him out before the fight. He didn’t see any of it.”I press a hand to my chest, already feeling the ache settle in. “You’re bringing him here?”“Yeah. I didn’t want him to be alone. I’ll explain everything when I get there.”“Of course. I’ll get the spare room ready.”There’s a pause on his end, and I can hear the heaviness in his breathing. “Thanks, Rose.”

Chapter: Chapter 183Jensen's Point of View The engine hums beneath me, low and steady, as I grip the steering wheel tighter than necessary. The forest road ahead is dark, barely lit by the twin beams of the headlights cutting through the thick trees. I decided not to take the tunnel, it is too slow, too narrow, too much risk. If Thorne’s fleeing, he’ll surface at the cave, and I want to be there waiting for him when he does. In the rearview mirror, I catch glimpses of the vehicles behind mine. Marcel rides shotgun beside me, silent but alert, his hand resting on the hilt of his blade. Victor and Josh follow in the second SUV, while Nyx and Darrek take the third. Ronan is in the last one, Selene right beside him. I don’t know her well yet, but I trust Ronan, and I trust the fire I saw in her eyes when she told me about that tunnel. She wants Thorne stopped. Maybe more than any of us. I glance to the GPS briefly, less than a mile now. The cave isn’t much from the outside, just a rocky outcropping near t

His growl is cut short when my fist connects with his jaw, sending him sprawling into the dirt. I barely pause, there’s no time for hesitation. Another one charges at me, its eyes wild with rage and fear, and I ready myself for the blow.But then...I smell her.And the world stills around me.It hits me like lightning, soft jasmine and moonlit rain. That scent. My lycan stills, confused, alert. My breath hitches. That can’t be. Not here. Not now.I throw the Lycan off of me with a snarl and turn, my heart hammering in my chest. My senses lock onto her, every instinct screaming the undeniable truth at me. My mate is here.And then, there she is. Standing at the edge of the fight, her chest heaving, blood on her arms, but none of it hers. Her pale eyes meet mine, wide with disbelief and something that looks a lot like relief.We don’t move at first. The battlefield

My muscles ripple beneath my fur, every movement honed, controlled. My vision sharpens in the dark, my crimson eyes cutting through distance until they land on them.There they are.Drake, is standing tall, protective, his wolf’s strength simmering beneath his skin. Nicole, fragile and glowing, her unborn child radiating a strange, potent energy that I can almost taste. And Hazel… the witch. The one who shattered the cage of my prison and let me walk free again.A low growl builds in my throat, vibrating deep in my chest. So it is true. They are all here. All gathered neatly in one place.I step forward, claws sinking into the soil, my weight pressing down like a shadow over the clearing. Their gazes snap to me, wary, watchful. Hazel moves quickly, faster than I expect. Her hands lift, her voice sharp with a spell.The ripple shimmers into existence

Drake’s massive dark wolf, Mark’s gray wolf, and Aiden’s sandy coat wolf are gone in seconds, vanishing into the shadows like they were never here.Only then do I exhale, the tension in my chest loosening just enough for me to speak. I turn to Nicole, who is still watching the treeline with her hands resting protectively over her swollen belly.“Let’s head back into the pack house,” I say, my voice calmer than I feel. “I will put up a barrier around it, make sure nothing else gets through.”She meets my gaze, something unspoken passing between us, a shared understanding, and a shared worry. Then she nods her head. “Alright.”We walk together towards the steps, the heavy wooden door of the pack house looming ahead like a safe haven. But I know better. Four walls and a lock are not enough against what is out t

My jaw is tight, my hands curled into fists, and my thoughts spin faster than I can catch them. I slam the door behind me and begin pacing the length of the room.Crimson eyes. Pitch black hair.Hazel’s words echo over and over in my mind.That woman she saw in the vision… she fits the exact description of the woman I met at the bar, the night everything fell apart. The night I rejected Hazel.I never told anyone about her. Not Nicole. Not Drake. Not even Hazel.Back then, I thought I had just had too much to drink. I thought I imagined the intensity in her eyes, the way her voice made my skin crawl. But now...Then there was the figure I saw at the stream. Just a flash. Black hair. Red eyes. Gone in the blink of an eye. I thought I was losing it. But what if I was not? What if it was her again?What if she has been watching us th

Amelia clutches Griffin a little tighter. Richard does not even blink, his jaw locked. Even Aiden looks pale now, eyes distant, haunted, maybe.I shift uncomfortably in my seat, the weight of their fear pressing against my chest.Then, quietly, Nicole rises from her chair. She rests a hand on her rounded belly, her other bracing against the table. Her voice is soft but firm as she says. “It has been a long eventful drive. Let me show you to your room, Hazel.”Relief flutters in my chest like a bird. I nod my head, grateful for the out. “Thanks. I would apriciate that.” I need a moment. Just a few minutes away from all this, away from the weight of what I have just said and the way it has unsettled everyone.But before Nicole can take a step, Aiden speaks up. “I can show her.”The words fall hard in the space between us, like a stone dropped i

The kind of quiet that says we’re both bracing for what comes next.Then I see it.“Drake,” I say, sitting up straight, pointing ahead.A column of black smoke snakes into the sky from somewhere just beyond the trees. Thick. Ominous. My heart drops into my stomach even before the shrill, piercing tone of Drake’s phone slices through the air. He pulls it from his pocket, eyes narrowing as he reads the screen.“Another attack,” he mutters, voice low and tight.Before I can respond, movement catches my eye, shadows shifting fast through the trees on the side of the road.Wolves.At least five of them, sleek and fast, darting through the forest like they’re being hunted, or running
