Elvira

The city was unusually quiet for a Saturday afternoon. The sun set lazily above the sky, its golden hue failing to reach the growing cold that coiled in my chest. I stood across the street from the apartment complex, staring up at the third floor, at apartment number 307, the same one Rona told me when I asked him. He had asked me why I was going to see him and of course I lied that I had a package I was going to deliver personally to him.

My fingers trembled around my phone. I had every intention of turning back. Of pretending I didn’t know. Of not pushing this further than it already hurt. But then the apartment door cracked open.

A woman stepped out. Human.

Brunette, tall, dressed in an oversized hoodie. My breath hitched. She giggled into her phone as she locked the door, and then tossed her hair, kissed her teeth, and strutted down the sidewalk like she owned the damn street.

My feet moved before my brain caught up.

I stormed across, fists clenched, each step echoin

    Kara The wind was relentless. Every step I took felt too light. Like the earth wasn’t sure if it wanted to hold me anymore. And still, I kept walking. I didn’t know what I was looking for. Only that I had to move. I had to get away from the memories, the look on Jaxon’s face when he ignored me, the laughter in Elvira’s eyes, the betrayal that still scraped at my insides like a knife. The trees thinned around a ridge. Smoke curled in the air. I crouched behind a rock, instincts sharpening. My eyes, now tinged with the silver sheen the Fae cursed me with, scanned the area. And then I saw him. A man. Tall, armed, with a smirk plastered on his annoyingly symmetrical face. He leaned against a boulder near a makeshift watchtower, watching the path like he owned it. His hair was dark, tousled in a way that made me instantly distrust him. His clothes weren’t Bloodmoon. Morrien. Which meant— Independent. Or worse. One of the Queen’s spies. I walked forward, ready to pass undetected.

    Ronan The Council Hall loomed ahead. I hadn’t even planned to show up until the next cycle. But then Lila called. Frantic and urgent. “Ronan, please. It’s urgent. They’re voting on it now. You have to be here.” No specifics. Just her voice, panic rippling beneath each syllable. I didn’t question it. Now, seated in the Council chamber, with twelve pairs of eyes flickering from ancient tomes to digital screens, I regretted the blind trust instantly. The room buzzed with tense whispers. I caught the tail-end of Lila’s speech as I stepped in. “…what Jaxon is proposing would destroy the equilibrium. Kale could be next. You all know how close they are. He’s preparing a consolidation decree.” My boots echoed as I walked down the aisle. Lila’s gaze snapped to me, relieved, too relieved. “Thank the moon,” she breathed. “You made it.” “I don’t even know what this is about,” I muttered under my breath as she ushered me to a seat beside her. “Jaxon’s overstepping,” she whispered. “He’

    Deric The gravel cracked under my boots as I walked up to Pack tower. The moon set low behind the clouds, and for the first time in years, I didn’t feel at home approaching this house, it felt worse as I stood at Jaxon’s office door. Everything I’d built, every secret I’d buried, was catching fire. I knocked once, hard. The door opened after a beat, but it wasn’t Jaxon who answered. Cassian. His eyes raked over me, and he didn’t move from the threshold. “Jaxon home?” I asked, trying to sound casual, like my entire life hadn’t been dragged through a shredder in the last forty-eight hours. Cassian leaned against the doorframe, arms crossed. “Why? So you can finish what you started?” That hit harder than I expected. So he already knows. I frowned. “What the hell does that mean?” His stare didn’t waver. “It means the council is reviewing the footage. You’ve made enemies, Deric. But the worst part? You didn’t just betray us. You betrayed him.” “I didn’t betray Jaxon,” I snapped.

    Jaxon I’ve never liked the taste of blood in my mouth, especially when I’m angry. But when I crushed the glass in my palm, I didn’t flinch. Pain was a good distraction from betrayal. I stared at the shards embedded in my skin, blood trickling between my fingers and onto the polished obsidian table in the private room of the Pack Tower. Talon flinched, but the pack detective opposite us didn’t even blink. He’d seen worse. “You sure you want me to keep going?” He asked, gesturing to the blood dripping down my wrist. “I didn’t ask for your concern,” I said, voice flat. Talon stood from the corner, grabbing a cloth and pressing it into my hand with a sigh. “You’re hurting yourself.” The detective’s lips curled just slightly, like he was trying to suppress the satisfaction of being the bearer of this chaos. “I wouldn’t be here if this wasn’t critical. Believe me, I held off on this as long as I could. But it’s gone too far.” I waved my hand, urging him on. The man reached into the

    Elvira I didn’t plan to be there. It started with a whisper in the library, a passing reference to a confidential report about Blood Moon movements in the west sector. Callan's name was now the head of discussions for patrollers. My heart stuttered. My instincts dragged me to the quiet corner of Pack Tower’s lower west wing, an annex that doubled as a liaison space for inter-pack relations and intelligence exchanges. It wasn’t a place I frequented. I saw the door crack before I heard the voices. “—Still no confirmation if the Blood Moon son in-law is active, but surveillance confirms Deric Voss has met with Verya twice, once at the hotel, and again near the human border. He’s either a fool, or he’s helping her.” My blood turned to slush. I pressed myself against the wall just outside the threshold, barely breathing. My skin prickled like it knew something my mind hadn’t caught up with. Deric? Meeting humans? And then that name. Verya. A thick shuffle of paper broke the silenc
