last update Last Updated: 2025-05-02 00:02:25

Vanessa’s POV

Celeste was losing touch with reality.

I saw it happen for a week, her laughter absent, her warmth lost. She avoided conversation and seemed to forget what she wanted to say in the middle of a sentence.

Her eyes became dull, and she stayed alone.

Tonight, I followed her.

She paced alone through the dark corridors, almost robotically. When she stepped out into the open air, I stayed put, back there behind the tall hedges.

She drifted, her hair brushing the moonlight as she moved across an empty field.

Then she stopped.

Her body was tense, and her head was tipped to the side. I could see her lips moving but heard nothing. My stomach twisted. It was unnatural and eerie. She was muttering to herself in a low, detached voice as if she were addressing someone only she could see.

"Celeste?" My voice called gently as I got closer to her. She spasmed violently, her head whipping toward me.

    CELESTE’S POV“Are you alright?” Sam’s voice brought me out of my trance-like state. The pain disappeared as fast as it came; it was almost like I imagined it. But I knew how I felt. I couldn't have possibly imagined that intense pain.“Yeah…..I just thought my birthmark itched.” I cleared my throat and continued what I was doing.“You have a birthmark?” He interrupted again, seeming excited by the idea.“Yes, I do. You have a problem with that?”“Not really. I just thought…..Can I have a look?”“Of course not.” I raise my head

    CELESTE’S POVVictor informed us that his interest in history has led him to read books that have made mention of the moonstone and its power to initiate or destroy whatever it was directed at. Right there, Sam and I made our decision. We were going to take Victor back with us to the pack, and he was going to point out the books; that way, we would be able to figure out what the moonstone is and where we can find it. Victor, though, wasn’t particularly fond of the idea of going back to the pack. “You did promise you weren't going to drag me back.” He hesitantly looked between us after we announced our intentions to him. “No one promised you shit, get a move on, my brother’s life is hanging on your head. You caused this anyway.” Sam stated unapologetically. With a prick of annoyance, I twirled to face him. “I can’t believe you are saying this to him right now,” I whispered. “What? I am saying nothing but the absolute truth,” he defended himself, looking so unfazed. “If we aren't b

    JEREMY'S POVI watched them step into our hideout, I heard everything they discussed and I watched how that fucker betrayed me in just a few minutes. He didn't even try to resist, not once did he. He simply asked for assurance and protection and just like that, he was following behind them, wiggling his tails like the fucking dog he was. Now I have to face the witches alone. Now I know I am on my own! And Sam? Wasn't he supposed to be working his way into the throne? What was his deal with suddenly wanting to help Killian out of his misery? Surely there must be something sinister going on behind the scenes. Sam just doesn't do stuff unless they are going to be of benefit to him in one way or another. They will learn the hard way not to trust him ever again. I scoffed as I increased my pace. Now that they have caught Victor, there is a high chance of his disclosing my identity to them. For the first time, I was grateful for the fact that I didn't tell him any of my plans. I am sure

    CELESTE'S POV"H....how did you find us..." Victor was up on his feet in seconds, struggling between trying to find an escape route for himself since we were currently standing right in front of the door."Hello, old friend, I assumed you would be here. Thank you for making it so easy for me." Sam bowed sarcastically, the smile on his face anything but genuine."You should be warned, I am not alone here, you....you are currently surrounded by my partners, you should leave while you still have the chance, I am not going to repeat myself." He tried to threaten, but even he could tell his attempt was futile."Listen, Victor...." I sighed dismissively. "We are not here to ar

    SAM'S POV"Why didn't you offer to help Logam search for Victor if you know the possible places to find him?" I knew this question was coming, and I had the answer reserved for it since we were still in the estate. "Because that's not my job in any way. I have nothing against Victor; him being caught will add nothing to my value, nor would him being on the run reduce anything from my worth. I don't waste my energy on what's not for me when I already have a lot on my plate to deal with." I slashed the branches getting in my way. "The least you could have done is just make mention of it; no one would force you to go in search of him." She scoffed from behind me. "So I will have all suspecting eyes on me, thinking I have something to do with his betrayal? Remember, my presence is still questionable. A lot of elders are not just going to dwell on the fact that I helped with investigating Victor’s hideout and getting him caught, they are going to be more focused on how I knew secret loc

    CELESTE'S POVOne week.I had just one week until Killian was completely gone, turned into someone else. One week, and then the help I should provide would be useless; one week, and I would have failed in life for the rest of my life. If I don't find a way to eliminate Malthus, I will lose my mate forever.That thought alone was enough to fuel me into acting. I jolted up from the seat again and faced Sam. “I think I need to go, I have to go back to the Moonstone Howl pack, there might be something closer to success than there is here.” I don't know what exactly I was going to do there, but I just can't sit still."What?" Killian and Sam inquired at the same time. Without bothe
