As Eva closed her eyes, she took a deep breath, and let the weight of their situation wash over her. The fear, the uncertainty, the responsibility she carried for her siblings and the baby - it all felt overwhelming.
But she couldn't afford to give in to despair. Not now. Eva had always been a strong protector, and she needed to find the strength to keep going.She looked over at the baby, their precious little sibling who had come into this world amidst chaos and danger. The baby's face was peaceful, innocent, oblivious to the turmoil surrounding them. Eva felt a surge of determination and love wash over her. They had to keep going, keep fighting, for the baby's sake.Eva's mind went back to the mysterious wolf they had encountered earlier. She couldn't shake off the feeling that it had some significance, that it was a sign or a warning of some kind. But for now, they needed to focus on caring for themselves and finding a way to escape whatever danger lurked nearby.As the storm raged on outside, Eva made a promise to herself - they would find a way to survive, to protect each other, and to reunite with their missing brother. She would be their guiding light, their source of strength, and she would lead them through this darkness.With a newfound resolve, Eva closed her eyes momentarily, offering a silent prayer for guidance and protection for her family. She knew their journey was far from over, but she believed that as long as they stayed united and never lost hope, they would find a way to overcome whatever challenges lay ahead.With that thought in her heart, Eva allowed herself to drift off to sleep, the sound of rain serving as a lullaby amidst the storm. Tomorrow was a new day, a chance for them to face their fears and continue their journey towards finding safety, reuniting with their brother, and building a better future.No matter the obstacles, no matter the dangers, the bond between the siblings was unbreakable, and together, they would find their way out of the darkness and into the light.As the night wore on, Eva's sleep was restless. The weight of their situation made it difficult for her to find true peace, even in the solace of sleep. She tossed and turned, plagued by dreams that merged reality and nightmare.In one of these dreams, Eva found herself back in the car, the mysterious wolf prowling just outside. The sound of its low growls reverberated through the vehicle, filling the air with tension. Eva's heart pounded as she tried desperately to escape, pushing down on the accelerator, but the car refused to move.Suddenly, Eva's body became paralysed, as if an invisible force was holding her in place. The wolf's piercing amber eyes bore into hers, its bared teeth glistening with malice. Fear gripped her, threatening to suffocate her, but she refused to succumb. With every ounce of strength, she fought against the invisible restraints, her willpower breaking the hold over her.In a burst of energy, Eva broke free, leaping out of the immobilised car. She faced the wolf head-on, her eyes filled with determination. Without flinching, she extended her hand towards the creature, offering it a sign of peace. To her surprise, the wolf's growls softened, its demeanour shifting from hostile to cautious.The wolf lowered its stance, its intensity transforming into curiosity. It circled Eva, sniffing the air cautiously. She could see intelligence in its eyes, a deeper understanding beyond what she initially perceived. They shared a moment of connection, a silent acknowledgement that they were both creatures thrown into a world of chaos.Suddenly, the dream shifted, and Eva returned to the run-down hotel room. The baby slept soundly, her sweet breaths filling the space. Millie and Eddie were awake, watching Eva with concern and hope. They had witnessed her restless sleep, their eyes filled with questions.With a heavy sigh, Eva recounted her dream to her siblings, leaving out no details. Millie's eyes widened in surprise, and Eddie's brow furrowed with worry. Eva's dream spoke of a possibility they hadn't considered, that perhaps the wolf they encountered was more than just a random encounter."I think," Eva began, her voice filled with uncertainty, "that the wolf's presence was a message. A sign guiding us towards something or someone."Millie's gaze hardened, her determination mirroring Eva's. "Then we must follow that sign, no matter the risks. If there's a chance it could lead us to Sebastian or give us answers, we can't just ignore it."Eddie's voice trembled with a mix of fear and determination. "But what if it's dangerous? What if that wolf was a threat?"Eva placed a comforting hand on Eddie's shoulder. "We don't know for certain, but I believe that embracing the unknown is our only chance. Trust me, if we stay in this room, hiding from the world, we'll never find Sebastian, and we'll never be truly safe."Her words resonated with her siblings, and together, they made a pact to follow the signs and embrace the unknown. With their hearts filled with resolve, they readied themselves for the next leg of their journey. The storm outside had begun to calm, and the rain reduced to a gentle drizzle.As the first rays of dawn peeked through the clouds, the siblings gathered their belongings and prepared to leave the shabby hotel room. They moved with purpose, their eyes fixed on the world awaiting them outside.Eva took one last look at the baby, bundled securely in a makeshift blanket, and silently vowed to protect her at all costs. They would face whatever challenges lay ahead, united and determined to find their brother and unravel the mysteries that had started to unravel their lives.With the weight of the unknown pressing against their chests, Eva led the way out of the hotel room, her siblings following close behind. They stepped into the morning light, ready to continue their journey, guided by the sign of the enigmatic wolf and fueled by the love and strength that bound them together.In the eerie silence of the abandoned hotel, the unsettling sound of a deep voice broke the tension, causing Eva's heart to leap into her throat. The unexpected presence sent waves of fear surging through her, causing her to clutch her brother and sister tightly to her side. With the baby's weight in her other arm, she assumed a protective stance, as if her physical presence could shield them from the impending danger.Feeling incredibly vulnerable, Eva's eyes darted around the dimly lit room, desperately searching for the source of the voice. Yet all she saw was the space, the shadows playing tricks on her jittery nerves. Sensing her distress, Millie tugged at Eva's blouse, her voice quivering with fear, "Eva, please, let's go. I'm scared." Eddie, ever the protector, emitted a low growl, his instinct to shield his sister from harm kicking into high gear.Summoning every ounce of courage she had left, Eva whispered reassurances to her siblings, trying to push aside her mounting terror
Eva's mind raced with conflicting thoughts and emotions. She was torn between her instinct to protect her siblings and her fear of Gabriel's unknown intentions. The weight of her responsibility pressed heavily upon her, reminding her of her promise to Sebastian. She had to prioritise the safety of her family above all else."We can't trust him," Eva whispered, her voice barely audible. "We need to stick to our plan and find somewhere safe."Eddie nodded in agreement, his protective instincts mirroring Eva's own. "We'll find a way, Eva. We always do."Millie, however, clung to Gabriel's words, her vulnerable young mind seeking solace in the possibility of safety. "But he said we're special," she said, trembling with hope. "Maybe he can help us."Eva hesitated, torn between her sibling's desire for security and her doubts about Gabriel's true intentions. She briefly closed her eyes, taking a deep breath to steady herself."I understand why you want to trust him, Millie," Eva said gently
Eva's journey had been long and arduous. They had travelled through treacherous terrain, avoiding danger at every turn. The weight of responsibility bore heavily on Eva's shoulders as she navigated the winding roads towards the small town she had heard about. It was their only hope for a temporary respite, a haven where they could regroup and plan their next move. As the car pulled into the outskirts of the town, Eva's exhaustion became overwhelming. Her eyelids grew heavy, and she had to fight to stay alert. Glancing at Millie and Eddie through the rearview mirror, she could see that they, too, were fatigued, their little faces etched with weariness. Spotting a sign that read "Bed and Breakfast," Eva's heart leapt with relief. It seemed like the perfect place to rest and gather their strength before facing the uncertainties that awaited them. She guided the car towards the quaint-looking establishment, hoping they would find solace within its walls. As they entered the bed an
"Where is the girl?" The Alpha's deep, menacing voice echoed through the room, sending shivers down Jason's spine. His big, brown, angry eyes fixated on Jason. "Well?" The Alpha demanded an answer immediately. Jason hesitated before responding, "Alpha Duane, we're still searching for her. She may have perished in the fires, but we're not giving up yet." The Alpha's grunt was laced with disgust as he slammed his fists down on the table, causing it to shatter into pieces. "No. I know she is alive. I want her found. She and the little brats. Leave no stone unturned." Jason trembled as he watched the Alpha storm out of the room. The door slammed behind him. Jason knew he couldn't reveal the truth - that the girl and the children had managed to escape. The Alpha had ordered them to collect a specific target, and failing to do so would put Jason's and others' lives in danger. Being a member of the Blackmore pack was more like a punishment to Jason. Alpha Duane did not like la
"They have already left. This hotel is under my ownership, and I won't tolerate people thinking they can just come and go as they please," the man grumbled in irritation. Sienna frowned at his response. "Isn't that the purpose of a hotel?" she retorted. Irritated, the man shot her a disgusted glance. "We don't even know your name," he grunted. "Gabriel. That's my name. And let me tell you, the girl you're searching for is long gone. You'll be lucky if you ever find her," he chuckled sarcastically. Sienna's frown deepened as she locked eyes with Gabriel. "We need to find her," she insisted firmly. "Her safety depends on it." She glanced back at Jason, silently urging him to also speak up. Jason took a step forward, his voice steady. "Gabriel, we understand your concerns and respect your ownership of this hotel. But we have a duty and a responsibility to ensure this girl's and her children's well-being." Gabriel crossed his arms, his expression hardened. "Why should I believe yo
Eva's hands gripped the steering wheel tightly as she drove along the open road. Her mind was consumed with thoughts of her father, and the rest of the pack and the uncertain future that awaited them. The rain started to fall again, the drops hitting the windshield and distorting her view. She squinted through the downpour, struggling to see clearly. Suddenly, a blinding flash of headlights sliced through the rain-soaked darkness. Eva's heart raced as she slammed the brakes, but it was too late. The screech of tires and the sickening sound of impact reverberated through the air. Everything went black. When Eva opened her eyes, she found herself in a sterile hospital room. The soft beeping of the machines and the fluorescent lights overhead assaulted her ears and eyes. Her head throbbed with pain, and her body felt heavy and sore. She tried to move, only to be met with discomfort and the realization that she was hooked up to various tubes and monitors. "Eva!" The familiar voi
"Wait a moment. She is in grave danger." Gabriel's voice suddenly echoed around Sienna and Jason. They both turned to see Gabriel hobbling after them. "What is he doing?" Sienna mumbled to Jason, feeling vulnerable as she stood behind him. "I will not hurt you, but I feel the girl, Eva. She is in danger. She needs to be found and repurchased." He said. "I don't care what your Alpha may have done to her pack, but this girl is not to be harmed. Especially the children." Gabriel clarified his feelings by pointing a finger towards Jason and Sienna. "She left this necklace behind." He Sienna and Jason exchanged worried glances as Gabriel caught up to them. Gabriel hesitated for a moment before speaking. "I don't know who is after her, but I feel it's someone powerful. She was running for a reason, and I believe she knew something that could put her in harm's way." He said. "I have a friend, Clara. She is a witch, and I believe she can help bring Eva and the children back." He
When Eva finally woke up, she found herself in a different room. The walls were white, the air was sterile, and a strange man stood over her. He introduced himself as Dr. Matthews, a psychiatrist who specialised in treating patients with memory loss."I will be here to help you, Eva. Don't you worry?" He smiled at his patient and watched as she dug her nails into the pillow resting on her lap. Eva felt a chill run down her spine as she realised what was happening. She had been drugged and taken to this facility against her will. Her baby and siblings were nowhere to be found, and she had no idea where they were or what was happening to them. She needed to get away from here and find them. If only Sebastian was here. None of this would have happened. She felt anger towards whoever had caused this to happen. She knew it made her sound crazy, but someone was behind all this, and she had no clue who. Dr Matthews explained to Eva that she had suffered a severe head injury in the car acc
