Sophia

I had made the decision that I would tell him. Yes, I couldn’t keep it to myself, and the right thing to do was to face him and speak openly. I wouldn’t hide it from him, but I needed to gather the courage to face him. After all, this was something we had done, not just me. He couldn’t be mad at me because Bright also bore responsibility for what happened.

I pictured his face. Those eyes I knew so well. That furrowed brow whenever something upset him. That way he pressed his lips together when he was holding back. And then I remembered his smile. The way he looked at me when he thought I wasn’t noticing. His warm embrace. The way he had told me to forgive him for how he’d treated me.

What if that wasn’t true anymore?

What if this ruined the little we had left between us? To be honest, I didn’t even know what was left, but yesterday I thought I felt a glimmer of hope.

I lay on my back, staring at the ceiling as if I might find answers there. But all I found were more doubts. Mor

    Bright I felt my jaw so tense it hurt. I looked at him with narrowed eyes, unable to hide the contempt he stirred in me. “You know what, Dante? Talking is what you do best. But if you were truly a respectful man, you would’ve called me. Period. There's no excuse for staying here with her when she has a boyfriend,” I snapped, crossing my arms over my chest.Dante stood in front of me, still calm, as if my anger were some kind of overreaction. “Maybe. But if I were Sophia’s future husband, I wouldn’t have left her alone at home —not even for a meeting— knowing from the start that she wasn’t feeling well,” he replied with a calm that drove me insane. I took a step toward him, clenching my fists. “And who do you think you are to lecture me? A saint? You have no idea what's going on, and you come into my house thinking you can give me lessons? Seriously?” I stepped even closer, fists still tight. “Again, who the hell do you think you are? You don’t know what’s happening between Soph

    SophiaThe sun barely filtered its light through the curtains when I decided to stay home. I had woken up feeling dizzy, with a strange tightness in my chest and a sense of imbalance I hadn’t been able to shake off since I opened my eyes. Bright had insisted I rest, and I reluctantly agreed. Even though I hated showing vulnerability, I knew pushing myself wouldn’t help.The house was quiet, though not completely silent. I knew there were werewolves from Dante’s pack guarding the place, following orders to protect me after what had happened. That intense protection made me feel strange. Not because I didn’t need it, but because I knew Bright wasn’t happy that they were the ones in charge. And I wasn’t sure if I should be either.I was sitting on the living room couch, a blanket over my legs and a half-finished cup of tea in my hands, when I heard a soft knock on the door. I frowned, thinking it might be one of the guards. But when I opened it, my heart skipped a beat.It was Dante.“Hi

    BrightI didn’t like being here.They could smile, greet me enthusiastically, pat me on the back like they’d known me all my life, but something didn’t fit.Or maybe I was the one who didn’t fit.No matter how hard I tried to look relaxed, my body was tense, like I might have to go into defense mode at any second. It wasn’t really about them, at least not directly. It was the feeling of being surrounded by strangers, by a system that didn’t belong to me.This wasn’t my pack.Not really, even if it was officially now.The welcome had been loud, full of excitement. Voices, laughter, werewolves slapping each other on the back, joking around, forming an invisible web of bonds I wasn’t part of yet.They greeted me warmly, asked about my story, wanted to include me… but none of that could silence the emptiness in my chest.I missed my pack.I missed the forest where I grew up, the house that no longer existed, and the familiar faces. I even missed the arguments with Thomas, because they wer

    Sophia Another day. The day of Sabrina's funeral. But Bright hadn’t wanted to talk about it.The sun had only just started to peek through the windows when we woke up. I looked at myself in the mirror one last time. It wasn’t a formal event, but I couldn’t help wanting to look good.Today was Dante’s official welcome into the pack, and he would be introducing us to everyone. It was strange to think about. Just a few days ago, Bright and I were still full of doubts, caught in a web of fears, threats, and rushed decisions. And now… we were part of something new. A new pack. A new life.Bright was in the other room, finishing getting dressed. His furrowed brow betrayed his tension. Even though he was the one who called Dante, the one who made the final decision, he didn’t like being here. He was doing it for me. For the baby. To protect us."Are you ready?" he asked, appearing in the doorway. His voice sounded a little dry, but his eyes softened when they met mine.I nodded with a faint

    Bright The clock on my nightstand read 6:29 a.m., and I knew I wouldn’t be able to fall back asleep. My head was spinning with thoughts. My heart was heavy with anguish and sorrow. Pain. Sabrina... So many memories. So many things are lost in such a short time. I was going to lose my mind.After last night... I couldn’t just do nothing. I didn’t like it, but I knew I had to do it. I took Sophia’s phone while she was still asleep beside me. Her breathing was soft, her face peaceful, as if what had happened last night didn’t weigh on her like it did on me. But I couldn’t sleep. Not after what I had read.That note was still burned into my mind like fire on skin:“I know you’re alone now, and you will die soon, Bright. Your time will come sooner than you think.”My hands were still trembling. That threat wasn’t just a warning. It was a message. A promise. And I wasn’t about to take the risk of it becoming real.I dialed Dante’s number, the one I had saved without telling Sophia. He ans
