LOGINMila’s POVI stepped toward the window and opened it slightly.The corridor was silent.I didn’t want to wake them yet.Something told me I needed to find out where Teddy had gone before anyone else knew.I returned to the room and crouched beside the window.I closed my eyes and breathed in Teddy’s scent.Michelle’s and Millie’s too, they weren’t difficult to find because their scent lingered strongly around the window, then disappeared toward the forest.I grabbed my cloak and I didn’t bother waking Knox because he wouldn’t let me go after them.I didn’t know what I was about to find, and I didn’t want anyone following me blindly.If Teddy was involved with something dangerous, I needed to know exactly what before I brought the others into it.I climbed through the window and my boots landed softly in the snow.I crouched and followed the trail.The forest was dark and moonlight slipped between the branches, illuminating patches of snow while the rest of the trees remained swallow
Eric’s POVA bright light engulfed everywhere I heard screeching and screams, a soldier ran up to me “Report general” he said “Go on”“The demons ran back” he said excitedly I smiled and turned to the moon Thank you so much godess “Lead the troops back to the kingdom” He left to do just that when the doctor said out loud.It’s a boy.”For a second, I couldn’t breathe.I stared at the doctor through the small opening of the door, hardly understanding the words he had just spoken. “A boy?”The doctor smiled “Yes, a baby boy.”My chest filled with a happiness so sudden and overwhelming that I almost laughed.I had a son.My wolf practically howled inside me.A pupI pressed a hand over my mouth, trying to hold myself together then reality returned.“Elise.”The doctor’s smile faded slightly. “She’s still in surgery.”My happiness immediately became tangled with fear.“Is she okay?”“We’re still working on her. The baby came out safely, but we need to finish with Elise.”I nodded
Eric’s POVI knew something was wrong the moment Elise woke me up “Eric”Her voice was barely a whisper.I opened my eyes immediately.She was sitting upright beside me, one hand pressed against her stomach and the other gripping the blanket.“What happened?”She shook her head.“I don’t know. I just… I feel strange.”I sat up and reached for her, her skin was warm.“Elise, look at me.”She did and her eyes were hazy.The pregnancy had become harder every day.She was farther along now, and simple things that used to be easy had become exhausting. Walking across the room left her breathless. Sleeping was difficult. She had been experiencing sharp pains more frequently, and sometimes I caught her pretending she was fine because she didn’t want me to worry.But I worried anyway, i always would.“Does it hurt?”“A little.”“How much?”She gave me a weak smile. “You ask that every time.”“Because you keep telling me you’re fine when you’re not.”She sighed.“I’ll be fine.”I didn’t bel
Conrad’s POVThe first scream came from the eastern side of the pack.My wolf slammed against my mind so hard that pain shot through my skull as I ran back to the pack to hold the gates.They’re here.I was already moving.I grabbed my sword from the table and shoved open the door just as one of the guards came sprinting down the corridor.“Enforcer!”“What?”His face was pale. “They broke through the eastern boundary.”My stomach dropped. “How many?”“We don’t know.”I ran.The moment I stepped outside, the smell of blood hit me.Smoke curled above the trees, turning the night sky gray. Wolves were shifting everywhere, some charging toward the eastern boundary while others dragged injured pack members away from the fight.And beyond the trees I saw hundreds of glowing eyes, my wolf snarled.They came for us.I tightened my grip around my sword.“Hold the line!” I shouted. “Nobody lets them reach the houses!”A roar answered me and the demons charged.Everything exploded into chaos.
Mila’s POVI couldn’t shake what we’d heard.The moment Knox and I returned to the inn, I knew we couldn’t keep it to ourselves.The road to the demons and the clue about the wolves being kidnapped.The strange stories we’d heard from the women at the coffee shop.And the fact that the road supposedly led directly toward demon territory, too many things were beginning to connect.I pushed open the door to our room, Knox was already inside I closed the door behind me.“We need everyone.”A few minutes later, everyone was gathered in one of the larger rooms downstairs.Marcus sat beside Hansel and Caleb leaned against the wall, arms crossed.Sasha and Marie sat together, while Elliot and Henshaw stood near the window.Teddy came in with Michelle and Millie.The moment he entered, I noticed Michelle’s expression, she looked tired and nervous.I didn’t have time to dwell on it, I stepped forward.“We went into town this morning.”Caleb raised an eyebrow. “You and Knox went sightseeing a
Conrad’s POVThe pack had been strangely lonely and quiet since everyone left, so this was his Caleb felt everytime we left him behind.I stood outside the main hall, watching the last few pack members finish their evening duties.With Marcus gone, there was no point pretending things were going to run normally.Someone had to keep everything together and that someone was me.I had spent most of the day checking patrols, making sure the borders were secure, settling arguments between pack members, and listening to Caleb complain from miles away through the messages he’d somehow managed to send.I also spoke with Hansel and she made sure to tell me how annoying Caleb was and I laughed, I wa doing tha more often these days.Marcus’s pack wasn’t hard to control, unlike Knox’s which was filled with hot headed wolves.I was walking back toward the main building when I felt it a presence, my wolf immediately growled, it was a dark powerful energy.I stopped walking and my hand went immedi
