Snow fell in a soft hush that morning, as if the mountain were trying to quiet her thoughts. It didn’t work.

Sarah woke to heat crawling along her shin like fire ants. The deep puncture marks on her neck had scabbed over, but the flesh around them was angrier than yesterday, shiny and taut, the color of bad fruit. When she pressed two fingers beside the wound, warmth bled up her neck and pooled behind her eyes. She sucked in a breath and let it out slowly, trying not to make a sound.

Not fever. Not weakness. Just tired, she told herself.

She swung her legs over the side of the mattress and sat until the room steadied. The stove had gone to coals in the night; the air bit her lungs. She fed the fire with split pine, listened to the sap pop, and brewed her special willow tea with hands that didn’t quite feel like hers. They had become wrinkled and aged. The cup trembled against her lip. Half went down. Half didn’t.

By midday, the ache changed shape. It wasn’t just the puncture wounds an

  • Alora's Windsong   Chapter 112 The Shield They Thought They Had

    Word spread through pack channels fast — faster than gossip, faster than wind — and by the time Lucas finished walking Jasmine and Bella off Sarah’s porch, almost an hour later..Blaise was already getting the report from his Beta over the Pack link.*Two girls from Ryker’s pack, in custody, causing trouble,* His Beta told him. *Barging into our territory. Running their mouths. Picking fights with teens. Claiming you will vouch for them.*When Blaise arrived at his own pack house, the holding cell was already sealed. His Beta stood waiting for him, arms crossed.“They tried to start a fight with the teen patrol,” he said. “Claimed someone in our pack had stolen Bella’s bracelet. They cornered him and tried to shake him down for it.”Blaise’s jaw tensed.“Did they find a bracelet?”His Beta’s expression didn’t change. “No. She was wearing it on the wrong wrist.”Blaise didn’t look surprised. He just shook his head in disbelief. Just disgusted.“That wasn’t the worst part,” his Beta

  • Alora's Windsong   Chapter 111 Lines in the Sand

    Sarah heard the front screen door open before she even reached the living room. Jasmine and Bella had already let themselves in, laughing loudly, tossing their hair like they owned the place.“Ugh, did you see what Paula was wearing at training? Like she rolled straight out of a charity bin.” “I swear half this pack still thinks flannel is a personality.”They cackled as they strutted in, talking over each other, feeding off the noise of their own cruelty.The old Sarah would have jumped right in. She would’ve sharpened the blade.Now? The words hit her ears like vomit.Jasmine spotted her first. “There she is!” she squealed. “Finally. We were starting to think you were hiding from us.”Bella nudged her. “You missed the best show at the training grounds. The little Luna-wannabe tripped over her own feet. The whole Gamma line saw it. Pathetic.”They waited for Sarah to laugh.She didn’t.Something flickered behind her eyes — not anger, not hesitation — recognition. The memory of an

  • Alora's Windsong   Chapter 110 Our Love 

    The moon was high by the time the last lanterns dimmed and the laughter drifted away with the night breeze. The pack house slowly emptied, children carried sleep-heavy on their shoulders, little shoes dangling, frosting still on their cheeks.Storm had fallen asleep in Beth's arms before the final song even ended — his tiny hand still gripping the ribbon from one of his gifts. Blaise kissed his forehead before Beth carried him to our hummer. She would tuck him safely into his nursery wing for the night.I would ride back with Blaise on his bike.The music softened, drifting into low strings as the singer sang her last song. Blaise reached for my hand.“Come dance with me,” he said quietly.We stepped out beneath the string lights that still glowed above the lawn. The night air was warm, and the distant laughter faded until there was only us — swaying slowly beneath the silver wash of moonlight.I rested my head on his chest and listened to the steady rhythm of his heartbeat. His arms c

  • Alora's Windsong   Chapter 109 Storm’s First Birthday

    The packhouse had never held so much color, so much laughter, or so much life.Lyra spent weeks planning every detail herself — not as Luna, but as a mother and grandmother reclaiming the years she was robbed of. Garlands of white and pale blue silk streamed from rafter to rafter, soft moonflowers and evergreen boughs braided together across the beams. Toddlers darted everywhere, giggling, half in costumes and half in frosting already.Storm didn’t walk in carried like something fragile. He marched through the doors holding his favorite wolf plushie by one ear, eyes enormous, awe rolling through him like thunder.“Appy birfday, Stom!” the toddlers chorused — some lisping, some yelling it like a war cry.The courtyard outside had been turned into a miniature fair. Real pony rides circled under strings of glowing lanterns, each pony braided in ribbons and bells. A shining carousel turned slow and proud near the orchard fence — Ryker’s gift, something he’d sworn was “temporary,” though

  • Alora's Windsong   Chapter 108 Mom

    The mansion was quiet in the hush of evening light when I slipped down the hall toward my mother’s room, quietly pushing Storm in his stroller. He slept deeply, breath soft and steady, one tiny fist curled over his blanket. Their door stood half-open. I knocked gently.“Come in,” she said.Lyra sat upright in Dad’s four-poster bed beside the window, wrapped in her pale blue robe, her white hair spilling over her shoulders like moonlight made of living silk. She looked out across the pines as if she had been waiting for me, for her daughter.When I stepped inside, she turned, and her face warmed in a way I had no memory of, but my heart recognized instantly.“Come here,” she whispered, opening her arms.I crossed the room and leaned into her without hesitation — head to heart — breathing her in. She smelled of Lavender, honeysuckles, and the warmth of safety and home. The kind of belonging that makes the body remember what it never got to grow up having. Her hand settled at the back of

  • Alora's Windsong   Chapter 107 Lucas

    Sarah was in the kitchen slicing apples for her grandfather’s pie when Mara’s voice carried down the hallway.“Sarah… Lucas is here.”The knife paused mid-cut. She carefully put the chopped apples in a bowl and back into the fridge before going to meet him.When she saw him standing there, for a second, she couldn’t breathe. Not because she feared him — but because she never once let herself imagine she might see him alive and safe again. She wiped her palms on her jeans, smoothed her hair, and stepped into the living room.Lucas stood there, still in his football uniform, helmet tucked under one arm. Grass stains marked one knee of his pants, and his jersey was damp from practice. He looked out of place in the old house — young and golden.And yet… He fit.He turned when he heard her footsteps.For a moment, they both just stared. All those months of searching, all that panic in his voice the night she reached for him — relief hit him like a punch. Those amber-brown eyes went soft.
