Mag-log inThen I see something I wasn’t expecting to see today: the Alpha Prince and his brother arriving for the show.I reach over to get Sebastian’s attention, pointing to the werewolves we weren’t expecting. Sebastian curses, then looks up at the scarf wrapped around the lower half of my face, just like i
NatashaI try to relax into the trunk of the tree, but it’s hard to truly relax when I’m on a branch high up enough that a fall could kill me.“You have to sleep, Natasha. If you’re too tired to keep your eyes open tomorrow, you’re useless to us.”“I know,” I snap at Sebastian’s harsh words.This wi
Sebastian leads me to the left with a gentle hand on my hip.The six of us spread out in pairs, still able to see each other as we hide behind trees. Once we’re all in place, we peek around our trees to the horrific sight ahead.The lone werewolf sits on the ground with his back to us. Two humans li
NatashaI’m already in my training gear, so I use the time that Marion and Sebastian take to argue over whether or not I’m joining him to braid back my hair in a French braid. It takes much less time than it used to since it’s so short now.It’s Sebastian saying, “Please don’t make her prove she can

OwenThe purple dahlias on the hallway table have begun to droop just slightly by the time we drag our feet up the stairs. Even with my heightened strength and healing, I’m only barely inching along right beside Amelia because my body is still tired from all the healing I did yesterday and my insuff
AmeliaI’m relieved when I return to find the prince awake. There was so much blood earlier, and he was so pale, I had been certain he would die.As much as he believes he owns me, I wasn’t fond of the idea of him dying.He looks better now though, his cheeks practically flushed as he finishes the w
OwenThe ninth human falls dead, and I shift back into my human form. The arrow in my shoulder is agonizingly painful, but I bury the sensation as I face the last Sun Warrior, the one who seemed to lead them.I know that look on his face. He’s ready to die for his people.“I killed three of your com
