I gave Jordan a slight smile before heading back towards the restaurant. He gave me a friendly wave before heading back up to the VIP section. I found myself wishing I had asked Jordan about that guy, at least his name, but I chickened out. Matt made sure to open the door for me as I walked by. I thanked him as I made my way through.

“No problem, cutie,” was his reply. I rolled my eyes when he said that. He was not getting me with his player ways. Especially not after that run-in wi

    After Alex took care of my injuries and took a vial of blood. She labeled it “Mystery Patient 21” So if anything came about it, I would be protected until she could talk to me about what it all means. The adrenaline was gone now. What remained was pain.Every step I made made my body ache. My ribs burned. My muscles trembled with exhaustion. The cuts on my arms stung beneath the bandages Alex had wrapped around them. Even breathing felt heavy.I passed everyone on my way back to my room but Luka stayed close beside me without touching me at first, like he was holding himself back on purpose.“You’re limping again,” he said quietly.“I noticed,” I muttered.His mouth twitched faintly, but the humor didn’t reach his eyes. Not after tonight. Not after almost losing me. When we reached the stairs, I stopped dead.“Nope.”Luka blinked at me.“I hate stairs now,” I informed him. A tired huff of laughter escaped him. “Fair.”Then, without another word, he bent and scooped me into his arms.

    We made it back to the house in silence. To any one watching us making the trek probably thought we were something from a zombie movie and we were the zombies.“Wait? Are zombies real?” I asked the group.Everyone gasped out a “What?” out of confusion. Only Luka laughed a bit.“Not that I know of.” Luka answered. “But, anything that could be supernatural can be a possibility; it's just not always the way Hollywood makes it out to be. But there are reasons how they came up with some of the ideas.”After the last few moments later we make it back to the house where Alex was waiting with a pile of medkits. Scared and confused on why she was here I couldn’t help but burst out my confusion.“I thought you were with my mom?” I asked worry building. “What if something happens.” Alex went to open her mouth to respond but Luka cut her off before she could say anything.“I told her to come. She is the only one with medical training.” Luka explained. “Joel had Garrett and Matt Go take over just

    The night air hit like cold water, sharp and real, but it didn’t slow Luka down. He had me in his arms before I fully understood we were outside, his grip unyielding, like if he loosened it even an inch I might disappear again.“Move!” Joel barked behind us. When did he get here?Branches snapped underfoot. Someone cursed. The scent of smoke and blood clung to everything, thick enough to taste. I tried to lift my head, to see where we were going, but the world tilted the second I moved.“Easy,” Luka murmured, his voice low, tight. Not calm. Never calm. “I’ve got you.”That shouldn’t have steadied me as much as it did.But it did.I let my head fall against his chest, listening to the wild, uneven rhythm of his heart. It wasn’t just fast. It was angry. Like something inside him was still fighting even though the battle was over.Except it wasn’t over. Not really. Not for us.We didn’t stop until the trees swallowed us whole.Only then did Luka slow.“Here,” Mary said, already moving, h

    Silence didn’t feel like victory.Bodies cooled across the stone floor. The last echoes of the fight clung to the air, sharp and metallic, but something underneath it… lingered.Watching.I felt it before I saw it.The white wolf didn’t surge this time. She stilled.Careful.That was new. My fingers tightened in Luka’s shirt without me realizing it.“…We’re not done,” I whispered.“I know,” he replied, already turning, already searching.The flickering torchlight, casting elongated and dancing shadows along the far wall of the dimly lit chamber, seemed to possess a life of its own. These shadows, usually static and predictable, began to subtly shift. It wasn't a sudden, alarming movement, nor was there any accompanying sound to betray the change. It was a mere visual anomaly, not dramatically, not loudly but just enough to be noticed by an observant eye. A prickle of unease, perhaps, or a momentary suspension of breath. And then, as if summoned by this subtle disturbance, he stepped

    DANNI’S POVThe chains hit the ground with a metallic scream. For a heartbeat, everything went still. Then—The room lunged. Vampires rushed from every side, fast enough to blur—but not fast enough.Not anymore.I saw them.Every movement carved in sharp clarity. Every attack telegraphed. My body moved before thought could catch up. I Duck. I Twist. I Strike.My hand snapped out, catching one by the wrist mid-lunge. I didn’t know how I knew what to do—I just did. I turned with the motion, using his momentum against him—and slammed him into the stone hard enough to crack it. Shock flickered across his face.Mine too, honestly. No time to dwell. Another came from behind—I spun, instincts screaming—I used my Claws. Not fully But close.My nails tore across his chest, ripping fabric, skin—He hissed, stumbling back.Holy—Focus.The white wolf surged through me, not taking over—guiding.Left. Left again and then down. I dropped low just as something whistled over my head.Now.I drove forwa

    DANNI POVThe room changed. They didn’t drag me this time. They led me. I knew I didn’t have a choice at the moment.A circular chamber opened before me, carved from dark stone that seemed to drink in the light. Symbols etched into the floor pulsed faintly, like a heartbeat I couldn’t quite hear. Was this magic? Something in my bones, maybe the wolf told me it was old. And it was hungry.Chains, colder than metal, wrapped around my wrists. They weren't tight, but they felt final, as if they didn't need to hold me down. The room itself would do that for them.Figures moved at the edges of the chamber. Under hooded clocks and dead Silent.Glowing eyes watched as they waited.And at the center—A raised platform.“Step forward,” the calm one said.I didn’t.He didn’t repeat himself. He didn’t need to. The floor beneath me shifted, pulling me forward inch by inch until I stood exactly where they wanted me.My heart pounded. But I lifted my chin anyway.“Still think this is going to work?”

    I fell right to sleep as we drove back into town. Thankful it was a bit of a drive, so I got to rest. No dreams haunted me while I napped, and I felt better when we arrived at Jess's house. There was a truck out front that I didn't recognize. I

    We cleaned up our lunch and began collecting our things. Jess grabs a couple of my bags, and I grab the rest. In the corner of my eye, I think I see something. It looked like the strange, creepy guy. Prickles of dread ran throughout my body. It

    40,000? How in the world? I couldn’t stop counting the zeros. How in the world did I get that much? I didn’t think the town had that as a whole. “How?” That was the only thing I could
