I had no idea what was going on, but I trusted Xavier. He trusted me and Dahlia, so he pressed the gas and didn’t stop until we were near the Silver Moon borders. We exchanged confused glances as we stopped behind a long line of cars.

“What’s going on?” Xavier muttered, craning his neck out the window to see what was happening at the border.

“What do you see? Who’s doing what?” I asked, feeling worried. Dahlia was still agitated, pushing us to leave Silver Moon territory as quickly as possible.

Xavier leaned back in his seat. “I don’t know, but I’ll go check it out.” He got out of the car and walked up to the car ahead of us. He bent down to the driver’s window and asked, “Hi, do you know what’s going on here? When did Silver Moon tighten their border security?” After all, we had entered yesterday without anyone stopping us.

“The Alpha gave the order early this morning,” the driver explained. “Every person and vehicle that passes through the border gates is being checked and recorded

    Spike handed control back to Xavier, who shifted back into his human form, standing there completely naked.At first, I tried to look away. I figured it was just a mistake, a result of how stressed and rushed we were. But then, Xavier tilted his head, clearly noticing my reaction. He walked toward me, confident and unbothered by his nudity, or the dirt and leaves sticking to his bare feet.Instead of going to the back of the car to get dressed, he stood right in front of me until I looked him in the eyes."I see clothes aren’t an option right now," I said sarcastically, trying to hide how flustered I felt.Xavier leaned in closer, his voice low and teasing, "Nothing you haven’t seen before."I didn’t want to let him know how much he was affecting me. "In case you’ve forgotten, we’re still on the run. We need to cross that border," I reminded him, focusing on keeping my self-control and not letting my eyes wander. The kiss we shared didn’t mean I was ready for the next step, though I c

    I stood there, stunned, as the mouth of the cave closed up like a mountain. It was like there had never been an opening at all.Xavier seemed just as surprised as I was, even though he had known what to expect. He hadn’t seen the artifact in action before, so he was impressed that it worked perfectly."Where did Maisie get that?" I asked, still staring at the magic that had just happened."She didn’t get it. She made it," Xavier said, turning away.He quickly erased as many car tracks as he could, covering those he couldn’t, before walking back to me."We shouldn’t waste any more time. I’ll shift and you hold on tight, alright?" he said. He seemed too alert and in a hurry to make a joke about it."Alright," I replied. Then, I asked, cautiously, "Xavier, is everything okay?""I’m not sure yet," he said, looking around. "Whatever it is, it’s too far for now." He turned to me seriously. "Let’s not wait for it to reach us."Before I could ask anything else, Xavier dropped to his knees. In

    Zoe's POVWe started walking in the direction opposite Silver Moon."Oh, come on!" Xavier yelled behind another van that did not stop for us, making me smile."Maybe they are intimidated by you," I said, trying to hide how amused I was at his behavior. The great Alpha Shaw getting frustrated because a vehicle didn't stop for him."If it's so funny to you, why don't you try it?" He frowned. I guess I wasn't as great at hiding my amusement as I thought I was. Or maybe I didn't really want to."Sure," I took the challenge, "Stay out of sight if you can," I said while making him walk near the ditch on the side of the road, as I sinched up the waist of my dress tighter and pushed up my breasts to show some cleavage."What are you doing?" Xavier asked, sounding jealous and protective."Using what Moon Goddess gave me," I smirked. I had been waiting for the opportunity to get back at him for walking around naked in front of me. Of course, I wasn't going to take off my dress, but this was the

    Zoe's POVIt took me a few minutes until a vine design caught my eye. It expressed my twisted life and my state of mind perfectly."This one, on the shaved side of my head," I told Judy.She took a look at the table, "This one will take five hours, at least. Possibly more." She looked at me, "Have you ever had a tattoo before?" I shook my head."I'd recommend a small quote on a wrist to see if you can handle it for the first time, instead of going straight to the scalp. It's a sensitive area." Judy advised."I can handle. Pain is a kind of a bestie now." I couldn't tell her that being with Dahlia had heightened my pain tolerance and once you break all bones of your body to turn into a werewolf-Lycan hybrid, nothing else can hurt as much."One last question," Judy placed her hands on her hips sassily, "With everything you just told me that you've lost. How will you pay for the tattoo? As sorry as I feel for you, this ain't no charity here, sweetheart.""We'll pay through this," Xavier

    It felt like we had stepped back in time. The village looked like something from a fairytale. Cobblestone paths led past old cottages. Flower pots filled with spring blooms decorated the windows. Women wore dresses and aprons. The men wore old-fashioned clothes. A delicious smell from a bakery drifted toward us. We passed giant windmills and fields of crops glowing in the setting sun."Why didn’t Aunt Julie ever talk about this place?" I asked, amazed."We can ask the locals. Let’s find a place to sleep and eat first," Xavier said.As we walked, the villagers gave us suspicious looks. Then, a young man ran up to us with a big smile. "Hello, countrymen! Welcome to Riverwoods. I’m Jonathan Wright, but you can call me Jonny."He wore jeans, a shiny leather jacket, and sneakers. He looked out of place here.Without waiting for us to reply, he kept talking. "Riverwoods has great views, food, and friendly people." Just then, a woman passed by with a basket of fruit on her head. She scowled

    Zoe's POV"This is your room. I hope you enjoy your stay here. If you need anything, you can come downstairs and ask me, Grand-Papa, or Grandma. Whoever is available will help you." Lilian handed us a quaint little key to our room and told, "I hope you understood all the house rules. If need to revise, there is a parchment on the side table to remind you. Have a lovely stay!" She bowed a little, raising her skirt on both sides like Cinderella, and walked away.Xavier turned the key and walked in, I followed him.It was only when I closed the door behind me that I realized that there was one room and two of us."Hold on, why did she give us only one key?" I asked with a frown."You wanted her to give us keys to all the rooms? Let's ask for a key to the kitchen while we're at it. Y'know for a midnight snack." Xavier said sarcastically and opened the backpack to pull out a smaller bag, probably his toiletries."You know what I mean," I said. Looking at his relaxed demeanor something click

    After my shower, I saw a beautiful yellow sundress on the bed. It had clouds and sunflowers painted on it. There was a note on it too.Xavier wasn’t around, so I walked over in my towel and read the note.‘I called Jonny to do some shopping for us since we left most of our stuff in the car. He says the dress is handmade. I’m going downstairs to use Mr. Hill's bathroom. See you at breakfast.’I smiled without thinking. I brushed my hair and put the dress on. It felt like wearing the early morning sky. My tattoo was almost healed. The vines looked good—jumbled, like my life.I walked downstairs to find Xavier sitting at the breakfast table with Mr. and Mrs. Hill, and Jonny. There was a seat next to Xavier and one next to Jonny. Lilian was serving fresh bread.Everyone smiled at me, and for the first time, I felt like smiling back. I almost sat next to Jonny to annoy Xavier after last night, but when I saw how he looked at Lilian cutting the bread, I decided to sit next to him instead.“

    Xavier and I walked toward the front of the house, and I couldn't help but stare at its condition. It looked abandoned, almost like a haunted house. A big, rusty padlock kept the place locked, and it seemed like no one had stepped foot on the property in years."So, what now?" Xavier asked, looking around. We were at a dead end. Aunt Julie was probably the last person to own the house, and without her, who else could help us get inside?"We could climb the wall," I suggested, eyeing the average height walls.Xavier raised an eyebrow. "You’re not seriously suggesting we trespass, are you?""Don’t judge me. And don’t act like you’ve never trespassed before," I said, raising a finger playfully. "And before you say you haven’t, remember who did a ritual to get into a nightclub with me, uninvited."Xavier shut his mouth, clearly defeated. She was right. Besides the nightclub incident, I knew how many times he'd gone to extreme lengths to get information for his pack.Before we could plan m
