Bound By Magic And Moonlight Chapter 55
Aiden's Point of ViewI pace the length of my office like a caged animal, the old wooden floor creaking beneath my boots with every turn. My eyes flick to the clock on the wall, it has been two and a half hours since Drake called. They should have been here by now.A tight knot forms in my gut, twisting with each passing minute. Something is wrong. I can feel it like a storm pressing against the edges of my skin. I told Drake this was a bad idea, dragging Hazel back into our world. And now they are late.I grab my phone and keys from the desk, heart thudding against my ribs. Enough waiting.As I storm out of the office and push through the front doors of the pack house, the harsh afternoon light stings my eyes. I’m halfway down the porch steps when I hear the low rumble of an engine approaching from the treeline.Drake’s truck, driving up towards the pack house.I stop dead in my tracks as the vehicle comes into view, dust trailing behind it. Relief crashes into me, hot and sharp, but

Hazel's Point of ViewThe trees blur past the window as we follow the winding road back towards Blackwater. I rest my head against the glass, watching the world streak by in shades of green and gold, trying to settle the twisting in my stomach. There’s a quiet between Drake and me, not uncomfortable, just full. The kind of quiet that says we’re both bracing for what comes next.Then I see it.“Drake,” I say, sitting up straight, pointing ahead.A column of black smoke snakes into the sky from somewhere just beyond the trees. Thick. Ominous. My heart drops into my stomach even before the shrill, piercing tone of Drake’s phone slices through the air. He pulls it from his pocket, eyes narrowing as he reads the screen.“Another attack,” he mutters, voice low and tight.Before I can respond, movement catches my eye, shadows shifting fast through the trees on the side of the road.Wolves.At least five of them, sleek and fast, darting through the forest like they’re being hunted, or running

Aiden's Point of ViewI jolt awake, breath catching in my throat like I’ve been running in my sleep. The room is dim, grey light filtering through the blinds. Another restless night.My thoughts are already spinning before my feet even hit the floor. According to Nicole, Drake should be returning to Blackwater today... with Hazel. And I still don’t know how the hell I’m supposed to feel about that.She had been clear when she left that night. She wanted nothing to do with us, no part in this world, no part in me. So why come back now?I drag a hand down my face and sigh, heavy and reluctant, before getting out of bed. My body moves automatically, too used to these early mornings soaked in tension and second guessing. I walk to the bathroom, twisting the shower knob, waiting as the pipes groan and then release a stream of water that slowly turns from icy to hot.I quickly strip the shorts I had slept in from my body.Steam curls against the mirror as I step under the water, but it does

Hazel's Point of ViewI unlock the door to my apartment and step inside, the familiar scent of lavender and parchment greeting me like an old friend. The moment I close the door behind me, the weight of the day presses down a little harder, tomorrow I’m leaving. With Drake.My chest tightens at the thought, but I push it aside. I made the choice, and now I need to prepare.I drop my bag by the couch and head straight for the small shelf in the corner of the living room where I keep the books I can’t part with, the ones that matter. I pull down my laptop first, slipping it into its case and setting it in the suitcase that’s already open on the floor. Then I start choosing the grimoires carefully, fingers running over worn spines and bookmarked pages. A few of them are old, the leather soft with age and use. I hesitate with each one, weighing their importance. I grab the grimoire with the bloodline protection sigils, just in case, and a smaller one filled with locator and detection spel

Drake's Point of ViewThe road hums beneath the tires as I drive through the thinning light of late afternoon, the sky painted in streaks of gold and fading blue. The conversation with Hazel replays in my mind, her cautious agreement, the quiet resignation in her voice, the way she finally said yes. It's a small win, but a win all the same. We need her. Desperately.I pull into the parking lot of the hotel and cut the engine. The silence that follows is heavy, but not unpleasant. Just the quiet that settles after a long day. I head inside, nodding my head briefly to the receptionist, and take the elevator up to my floor. Once inside the room, I toss my keys on the desk and sink onto the edge of the bed, shoulders slumping for the first time in hours.Reaching into my pocket, I pull out my phone and find Nicole’s name. My thumb hesitates for a moment before I hit the call button. It rings only twice before her voice fills the line.“Well?” she asks immediately.“It worked,” I say, and

Hazel's Point of ViewThe morning light bleeds weakly through the curtains as I blink up at the ceiling, the stale residue of another restless night clinging to my skin like a second layer. I exhale slowly, rubbing my eyes with the heel of my palm. There’s no use lying here. Today, I need to follow through on what I told Drake, I need to see if I can make arrangements to return to Blackwater, even if just for a little while.With a quiet groan, I swing my legs over the side of the bed and push myself up. The hardwood floor is cool beneath my feet as I cross the room to my closet. I’m not in the mood for anything flashy or tight, not today. I pull out a soft, floor length skirt in a muted charcoal gray and pair it with a cream sweater that falls loosely over my hips. Comfortable. Neutral. Unassuming. Just how I like it.After dressing, I walk into the bathroom. The cold water on my face helps a little, washing away the fatigue clinging to my features. I stare at my reflection for a mom
