Another Chance Chapter 88
The Pull Beyond the Ridge Rissa’s POV The forest did not feel the same anymore. It was still the same stretch of trees, the same damp earth underfoot, the same distant rustle of leaves shifting high above. But something inside it had changed. Or maybe something inside me had. Every breath I took tasted sharper, fuller, like the world had peeled back a hidden layer and let me see what had always been there. I walked ahead of them. Not because I wanted to lead. Because something was pulling me forward. Not the hunters. Not Josh. Not even Mark. Something older. The ground sloped gently downward as we left the clearing behind. Sunlight filtered through the branches in thin silver streaks, striping the path like quiet warnings. My senses stretched farther with every step. I could hear insects beneath bark. I could feel roots twisting under soil. I could sense the exact moment Mark’s gaze shifted from the trees to me. He was watching me closely. Not with doubt. With readiness. He

The Watchers Mark’s POV The ridge should have felt like victory. Instead it felt like exposure. The clearing stretched before us, pale morning light spilling across damp grass, turning every dew drop into something sharp and bright. It should have been peaceful. It should have been relief. But the forest behind us had gone too quiet, and silence like that was never empty. Silence like that listened. Rissa stood beside me, breathing slowly, steadying herself. Her power had not vanished after she crossed the ridge. I could still feel it humming beneath her skin, coiled and watchful, like lightning waiting inside a storm cloud. She had taken control of the thread, yes. But power claimed once is never satisfied. It always tests its owner again. Josh stepped into the clearing last. He did not rush. He never rushed. He walked as if time belonged

Crossing ShadowsMark’s POVThe forest had shifted. The way the mist curled around the trees, the way shadows clung to the ground, it was like the world itself had leaned in closer. I could feel it in my bones, in the air vibrating between us, in the way Rissa’s hand stayed close to mine.She had claimed the thread, asserted herself in a way I had never seen before. The hunters had retreated, but the forest still felt alive, aware, watching. The pulse of danger had not left. It had simply moved, repositioned, waiting for the right moment.Josh moved silently behind us. He was patient, always patient, and that patience had teeth. I could feel it pressing against us with every step we took deeper into the trees. His presence was subtle, but it was deliberate, measured, designed to unsettle. I did not like it.Rissa’s eyes scanned the shadows in a way I had never taught her. They were alert, cautious, but there was something else there. Confidence. A spark of power she hadn’t understood

The ChoiceMark’s POVThe forest was quiet, too quiet. Every sound that had once told me where the hunters moved now felt muted, almost hesitant. I crouched beside Rissa, hand brushing against hers to steady her without asking. She didn’t pull away, but I could feel the tension radiating from her like heat from a stone.The hunters were kneeling. All four. Their presence was impossible to ignore, even without movement. Their silence screamed ownership, power, expectation. And the thread connecting Rissa to them pulsed, taut and undeniable.Josh stepped closer, calm as ever. His boots barely made a sound on the forest floor. His eyes held mine for a fraction of a second—measuring, calculating. And I knew then that he understood more than I could see, more than he would ever admit.“Rissa,” I said low, keeping my voice controlled. “Stay with me. Focus.”Her eyes flicked to mine, wide, a storm of fear and wonder contained within the

Closing Distance Rissa’s POV The shape moved. Not imagination. Not shadow. Movement. Mark’s hand closed around my wrist, firm and grounding. “Back,” he whispered. We stepped away from the treeline together. Slow. Controlled. The figure did not follow. It stood half hidden between trunks, just visible enough to prove it was real. Watching. My pulse climbed. “Do you see it?” “Yes.” No hesitation. No doubt. Relief flickered through me. I was not alone inside my own head. A branch snapped somewhere to our left. Another shape. Mark shifted instantly, placing himself between me and the trees. His knife was already in his hand. I had not even seen him draw it. “They’re closer than before,” he said quietly. A third sound. Behind us. My breath stalled. “Mark.” “I know.” We were not being stalked anymore. We were being circled. The forest pressed in. Every trunk looked like a cover. Every shadow looked like a body waiting to step out. I forced myself to listen instead of pan
Another Chance Chapter Eighty-Three
Darkness Rissa’s POVI stayed kneeling by the river long after Josh walked away.I kept my hand in the water until it went numb, just to prove I could still feel something real. Something untouched.I didn't trust my instincts.I hated that more than anything.They used to be sharp, a compass I could navigate an entire life with. But lately they felt tampered with. Tilted. Like someone slipped a finger on the scale and smiled while watching me try to balance.Water rippled around my fingers.Turn around.That voice from the vision or whatever it was lingered inside my skull like a thread I couldn’t pull free. I didn’t know if it came from inside me or somewhere else entirely.I told myself I’d walk for a minute, get my thoughts straight, then return.Instead, my legs moved on their own, taking me upriver along a narrow strip of stones. Not running. Not hiding. Just following… something.Distance gave me clarity.Or maybe it gave me the illusion of it — but I’d take the illusion ove
