로그인Lillian’s POVI stood completely frozen on the cold stone floor of the basement hallway. My mind was spinning so fast that I felt dizzy, and my heart slammed violently against my ribs. I turned around very slowly, stepping back toward the thick iron bars of the holding cell."What did you just say, Shantel?" I asked, my voice raspy and shaking with pure shock. "What do you know about my hair whitening? Tell me right now!"Shantel pressed her dirty face against the iron bars, her dark eyes wide with frantic energy. She wiped a smudge of black makeup from her cheek with her sleeve, letting out a sharp, nervous breath."I recognized it the second you walked down those stairs!" Shantel gasped out, her hands gripping the cold metal tightly. "When I was much younger, before I came to this territory, there was a nurse who took care of me. I lived with a foster family back then, and she was hired to look after my health because I was a sick child."I narrowed my eyes, taking another step clos
Lillian’s POV"I don't care about the danger, Aiden!" I shrieked, pulling my wrists frantically against his iron grip. "Dorian's life depends on me getting these answers! Alanna told me his condition is getting worse every single hour! The poison is sleeping his inner wolf, and if his spine doesn't heal soon, he will be crippled forever! We have to do something!""And going to the Moonstone pack is suicide!" Aiden barked back, his sharp voice echoing off the walls of the medical room. "Have you already forgotten that it was going to the Moonstone territory that led Dorian to his terrible condition in the first place?! He walked in there alone and came back with a bullet in his spine! I am not going to let his wife walk straight into that same burning hell!"We stood there shouting at each other, our desperate voices bouncing off the walls while Dorian watched us from the hospital bed with heavy, pained eyes. I fought against Aiden's grip, crying and pleading, but he refused to budge.
Lillian’s POVI stood in the middle of the medical room, my hands clenched into tight fists as I stared at Aiden. The wild panic in his eyes made my stomach drop into a cold, dark pit."What did you find, Aiden?" I asked, my voice barely above a whisper as I stepped away from Dorian’s bedside. "What is so important that you had to run in here like this?"Aiden didn't answer me with words. Instead, he reached inside his inner jacket pocket and pulled out a long piece of heavy parchment paper. It was yellowed with age, its rolled edges making it look almost like an ancient scroll. He stepped forward with fast, heavy strides and shoved the paper straight into my hands."Read this," Aiden gasped out, wiping a bead of sweat from his forehead. "I found it tucked behind the false wall in the lowest archive cabinet. Read what it says, Lillian."My trembling fingers unrolled the stiff scroll. I wiped a thin layer of gray dust off the surface and began to read the fine, faded black ink written
Lillian’s POVI sat at the dark wooden desk, my trembling fingers tracing the faded black ink on the old, dusty page. My heart was slamming against my ribs as I read every single word out loud to Aiden and Alanna.The ancient book explained that these sacred women with mystical healing abilities were not just random individuals scattered across the world. They all belonged to a very specific, legendary werewolf pack known in ancient times as the Darkfire pack. They were a peaceful, quiet group of people who held the ultimate power of life and restoration. They could fix broken bones in seconds, cure deadly illnesses that had no cure, and even heal the deepest, darkest scars inside a person's mind."The Darkfire pack..." I whispered, my voice raspy and dry. "That is where my ancestors came from. That is my true bloodline.""If we can find records of the Darkfire pack, we might find out how your healing power actually works," Aiden said quickly, his sharp eyes shining with a fresh spark
Lillian’s POV"Dorian, call them! Call them right now!" I panicked, my voice cracking as I held my head in my hands.Seeing the sheer terror in my eyes, Dorian did not waste a single second. He raised his deep Alpha voice, shouting for Aiden and Alanna at the top of his lungs.Within seconds, the heavy wooden door pushed open, and both Alanna and Aiden rushed into the medical room with worried faces."What happened?! Is something wrong with the Alpha?!" Alanna asked frantically, her medical kit already in her hand."Look at her hair," Dorian instructed, his voice low and serious as he pointed toward me.Alanna walked closer to me, her sharp eyes scanning my face before locking onto the bright white streak above my left temple. She gasped softly, her eyes widening in pure shock at the sudden change of my hair."How is this possible?" Alanna whispered, reaching out to gently touch the snow-white strands. "It was completely dark an hour ago when you stepped out of the car.""It is not ju
Lillian’s POVThe air inside the quiet medical room felt heavy and cold.I stood beside the high hospital bed, staring down at my husband's pale, quiet face. Dorian was lying completely still on the white sheets, his eyes closed, his chest rising and falling in slow, shallow breaths. He looked so small and broken lying there, completely stripped of his usual powerful, towering presence.Alanna stood on the other side of the bed, her face dark with sorrow as she adjusted the clear tubes running into his arm."He won't be able to walk if he doesn't heal pretty fast, Lillian," Alanna reported in a soft, trembling whisper, her voice full of tragic weight. "The bullet hit his lower spine directly and damaged his nerves badly. If his inner wolf does not wake up and repair the bone in the next few days, he will be crippled for the rest of his life."My heart broke into a million sharp pieces right there in my chest.A heavy, agonizing lump formed in my sore throat, and hot tears burst from m
Lillian’s POV.“This was your little plan, wasn’t it?” I almost leaped at the feminine voice behind me. I whirled back with irritation to see Shantel glaring daggers at me. I didn’t hesitate to correct my posture, leaning carelessly over the railings on the balcony as cool steel bit into my skin.
Lillian’s POV.“Alpha Dorian Valehart?” Shantel’s voice softened, staring at Dorian dreamily as he jerked her arm off.Dorian left Shantel’s side and came to mine, his heady scent encompassing me. Immediately, I felt safe in his presence. Five years ago, after Dorian saved me from the bandits, I’d
Lillian’s POV.“Are you ready, ma’am?”My driver’s voice jolted me back to reality as I fumbled with the door handle. Outside this door was what I’d spent the past five years preparing for.My big reveal to the world as a new woman— not Aaron Moonstone’s mate, not Moonstone Pack’s docile Luna but a
Lillian’s POV. Beeping machines. Alcohol. It all came crashing down on me like a deja vu as the reality hit me. I was in the hospital. But how did I get here? My eyelids fluttered open as sunlight streamed into the room through filtered glasses that casted soft, golden hues on my face. I sat up c
