Lila’s POVThe morning sun poured into my room like liquid gold, but I didn't feel the warmth.I sat upright in bed, still wrapped in silk sheets, clutching the edge of the mattress with my nails digging deep. My eyes darted around the room, painted in soft cream with pale blue colors, the exact colors Raven once loved.The scent of rose and cedarwood came from the diffuser beside my bed, her favorite. I had bought it the moment she left the pack.I was making sure I recreated her life, the life she abandoned, she has to regret leaving the pack.However, despite recreating her style, till it became a part of me, something wasn't still enough, what was lacking?!What could it be?! I looked around, falling back to the bed, recurring to yesterday's visit.The fruit I got for her, I got mine too, that damn basket reminded me of the way her eyes cursed my very present.She opened the door like she wasn't scared of anything, maybe it was the man with her that made her have that domineer, sh
Rune’s POVThe courtyard still smells like blood and smoke. The ground was littered with bodies. I searched and noticed it was mostly the rogues, but a few of our guards too. I stepped over one, its fur matted with blood, the chest still rising faintly like it wasn’t ready to die.I didn’t stop. Protecting myself, no, not this time. I had to be selfish. I had to do something right.My claws were still half out. I hadn’t shifted back fully. My chest burned with anger. But it wasn’t from the fight. It was from seeing her. Raven, she was Alive,Standing on the Council podium, blood on her arms, her cloak torn. She didn’t look broken. She looked like she was ready for war.Logan was beside her, gripping her elbow like she might fall, she wasn’t going to fall, not yet.She saw me coming but didn’t flinch a muscle. I walked faster. Logan’s eyes narrowed at me, like he was warning me.“She needs a healer, she is injured,” he said.“She needs space, I need to talk to her.” I retorted.Raven ti
Raven’s POVWe ran fast, as though something was chasing us from behind.The walls were closing in, but we didn’t slow down, and our breath were coming out forced, he didn't also stop to catch air.The Council chamber was no longer safe, not with rogues already inside. I could smell their blood. Their hate was always noticeable, their plan was working."They got in through someone," I said, while trying to catch my breath.Rune said nothing, he turned his face to watch at me while he just kept pace beside me. I didn’t want him next to me, but I wasn’t stupid enough to turn down help, at least not now, my life was in danger.We reached the hall, my eyes grew on where the guards had gone silent. A heavy body slumped at the entrance and his head detached from his body."They came through this way," Rune said, sniffing the air.I gave a light nod, while I shifted slightly, just enough to let my wolf take over my senses. My claws slid out. I heard the scratch of nails against stone before
