Selene’s POV

The first thing I notice is the warmth. Not the sun, not the fire, not even the heat from the walls of the villa. It’s… inside me. A pulse that vibrates through every nerve, every fiber of my being. I blink, unsure, because I have not felt anything like this since I refused the blood rites and was cast out. Then I hear it.

A voice. Not a voice from a mouth, not sound traveling through air. It is in my mind. Gentle. Familiar, even though I have never met it before. And then more join, overlapping, harmonizing, calling… Luna. I freeze, my chest tightening. Luna? Who…?

And then I feel her, Zenith. Human, fragile, yet radiant beyond anything I have ever known. Her essence threads through the mindlink, touching every corner of my fear, my hurt, my shame, and I realize… I can trust her. Somehow, without words, without gestures, I know I am safe.

The mindlink pulses, and I feel the others, the teens, Darian, Lysander, Elysia, and Esme. Their fears, their small victories, their

  • Alejandro's Human Antidote    A Vision Fulfilled

    Selene’s POVI never thought I would see it. The mountain villa, perched like a sentinel over the jagged peaks of Lake Tahoe, just as the vision had shown me. Every detail, every curve of the stone balconies, the way the trees leaned toward the slopes, it was all exactly as I had seen in my dreams. I had thought it a trick of desperation, the last hope of a witch abandoned by her coven, exiled for refusing the blood rites.Yet here I am. Alone. Bruised, tired, and heart pounding with a strange mix of fear and anticipation. My satchel is heavy with the few things I dared to carry, charms, protective herbs, a notebook of spells, and a single, desperate hope, that the Alpha of alphas, the ruler of all supernatural beings, truly resides here. That somehow, this villa is more than a home. That it is a promise of a better tomorrow.I take a deep breath, steadying myself, and knock on the massive front door. Three sharp raps, deliberate. My pulse races

  • Alejandro's Human Antidote    A Place To Belong

    Esme’s POVI did not know what I expected when Koa found me. Maybe a roof over my head, maybe someone to keep me from freezing to death on the outskirts of the Nevada wilderness. Maybe… nothing. Because after everything I have lost, after every coven that turned its back, I have stopped hoping.Koa did not talk much at first. Just handed me a blanket, led me to a room, set some food in front of me, and left me alone. I stayed huddled in the corner, bruises still throbbing, arms crossed tight across my chest. I have been taught my entire life that trust is a weapon too dangerous to wield. And then she appeared....Human. Small. Young. Soft. And yet… something about her made me hesitate before I turned away. Zenith. They called her Luna. I did not understand. I barely understood why I should care. But when she knelt a few feet away, not touching, not forcing, just… sitting there, offering her presence, I felt my walls tremble.“You’re

  • Alejandro's Human Antidote    A Heart Unlocked

    Elysia’s POVI have spent most of my life learning how to vanish. Invisible in the halls, unnoticed in the classrooms, unremarkable in every way. People overlook you when you do not want attention, but that is different from being truly seen. Truly seen is dangerous. It hurts. And I have learned that the hard way. But tonight… tonight, it’s different.Alejandro called us into the meeting room, all six of us, the three teenagers, as well as Koa, Esme, Selene and Zenith at the center, a quiet anchor I did not know I needed. I watch as she moves among us, human yet more powerful than anyone I have ever known.Her hands are gentle, almost hypnotic, and her eyes… they do not just look at me, they see me. All the fractures I have buried, all the pieces of myself I have hidden behind sarcasm and distance, they do not frighten her. They matter.Then Alejandro raises his hand, and I feel it before I even understand it, a pulse, subtle, threa

  • Alejandro's Human Antidote    Walls Crumbling

    Lysander’s POVI have always been good at hiding. Hiding my fear, my anger, my loneliness. You have to, when life keeps showing you the same lesson over and over, trust no one, rely on no one. Itbis easier that way. Safer. Less messy.But tonight… nothing about tonight is safe or easy. Alejandro calls us into the meeting room, Koa and Zenith at the front, Alejandro looming behind them like a wall we are not supposed to cross. And then he speaks, and somehow I know we are about to be bound, not just as a pack, but… something deeper.The moment Alejandro raises his hand, I feel it first, a tug, subtle, almost like a heartbeat I was not aware was mine. Then the presence of the others threads into me. Darian, Elysia, Esme, Selene, Koa, Alejandro… and Zenith.Zenith. Her presence is not just power or authority. It is calm, and grounding, like a hearth fire that never goes out. My walls, the ones I have built to survive in a world that ch

  • Alejandro's Human Antidote    Threads of Trust

    Darian’s POVI am not sure what I expected when Alejandro told us we would d participate in some kind of… ritual. Part of me thought it would be training, shifts, combat, the usual pack power stuff. I did not expect this...A naming ceremony. Naming our very unconventional pack and opening of the pack link to all members. Unheard of!It would have been normal had we all been werewolves. It is common knowledge that werewolves have the advantage of the mindlink, or telepathy as humans call it. This is what sets us apart. We can have a whole conversation in our heads without anyone unrelated eavesdropping. But this pack has witches and our Luna is human! Yet the mindlink was opened to each member! Scarily awesome!It hits me the moment Alejandro gestures for us to sit. The air changes. Not like the villa itself, but inside me. My chest tightens, and a pulse hums somewhere between my head and my heart. I glance at the others, Lysander fidgets, Elysia
