LOGINExcerpt. “Reject me and let me go! Staying here with me is only going to hurt you more!” Avery growled, her voice quivering gazing at the man in front of her. “You are the only one allowed to hurt me. I see no reason why I have to leave,” he grinned slyly. Avery's eyes were filled with tears, the love she had for him soared when he leaned forward and pressed his lips on hers. *** Avery's eighteenth birthday was supposed to be a celebration of her transition into adulthood, just like every other she-wolf. But her dreams were shattered when she discovered the shocking truth: her destined mate, chosen by the moon goddess herself, was none other than her sworn enemy. The one being she was bound to for life was the same one she had vowed to challenge. Avery's heart raced with a mix of anger, fear, and disbelief. Later on, she found herself protecting the same man from the danger lurking around her.

Across from us, Dominic checked his gun, his expression unreadable.Raven’s voice crackled through the comms. “Security is heavier than expected. She knows something’s coming.”Dominic didn’t flinch. “Doesn’t matter.”He motioned for his men to move.I exhaled slowly, steadying myself.And then, we went in.---The first thing that hit me was the smell.Oil. Dust. Gunpowder.The warehouse was massive, stretching into darkness, illuminated only by flickering industrial lights overhead. Crates were stacked high, some sealed, others cracked open to reveal weapons, cash, documents.Lisa had been preparing for war.And we had just walked straight into it.A guard rounded the corner, rifle raised.Noah moved before I could react.A single shot. The man crumpled.No hesitation. No wasted movement.The others followed. Dominic’s team swept through the warehouse like a shadow, taking down guards with brutal efficiency.We advanced quickly, clea
The city never slept, but for once, I wished it would.I sat by the window, watching headlights streak past on the rain-slicked streets below. The low hum of traffic and the distant wail of sirens blended together, forming an eerie symphony that filled the silence in my head.Behind me, Noah was still asleep.His breathing was slow and steady, the rise and fall of his chest almost hypnotic. He hadn’t gotten real rest in days—none of us had—but exhaustion had finally caught up to him. I knew he needed the sleep.And yet, I couldn’t close my eyes.I reached for the passport again, flipping it open under the dim glow of the city lights.A new name. A new identity.A way out.Dominic had left it for me before disappearing into the night, his expression unreadable as he’d placed it on the table between us.“No strings. No pressure. If you want to disappear, I’ll make sure no one finds you.”No one.Not Lisa. Not her people. Not even Noah.The thought sent a hollow ache through my chest.I s
Avery’s POVThe weight of it all didn’t hit me until I stepped outside.The cool night air rushed against my face, mixing with the distant scent of smoke and gunpowder. The mansion—Lisa’s fortress—was a mess of flashing red and blue lights, agents moving in and out like a swarm.Lisa Monroe was in custody.It was over.I wanted to feel relief. I wanted to let out the breath I’d been holding for what felt like years.But all I felt was exhaustion.“Avery!”I turned just in time to see Noah pushing through the crowd, eyes wild with panic.Before I could say a word, his hands were on my face, his touch firm but careful, like he was checking to make sure I was real.“You’re bleeding.” His voice was sharp, urgent.I blinked, and that’s when I felt it. The dull ache in my shoulder had sharpened into something burning and raw. The bullet wound.“I’m fine,” I managed, even as my knees threatened to buckle.Noah didn’t believe me for a second.His arm wrapped around my waist, holding me upright
Avery’s POVThe gunshot cracked through the hallway, sharp and deafening.Instinct took over.I dove to the side, barely registering the blur of motion as Noah grabbed my arm and yanked me behind cover. The bullet struck the wall where I had been standing a second ago, sending a spray of plaster into the air."Move!" Dominic barked, already drawing his own weapon.Noah shoved me behind a marble pillar, pressing his back against it as Lisa took another shot. The bullet embedded itself in the wood of a nearby door.I gasped for breath, my pulse hammering. Lisa’s footsteps clicked against the floor as she advanced, slow and deliberate."You never should have come here," she called out, her voice eerily calm. "You had your chance to walk away."Noah shot me a look—silent communication. He was going to flank her.I nodded, gripping my pistol so tightly my fingers ached. My whole body was screaming at me to run, to escape, but I forced the fear down.Not this time.Lisa had hunted me for to
Avery’s POVThe night dragged on in silence, thick and suffocating. Sleep wasn’t an option, not when my mind wouldn’t stop racing. Lisa was out there, hunting us. We had barely escaped the warehouse, and now we were holed up in a safe house that felt more like a waiting room before a battle.I sat
