MICHAELA'S POV

Although I had already suspected the Wilds had once been something more than trees and vegetation after finding the buried staircase, the confirmation that it had once been a city raised a few questions.

How long ago had the city existed?

Did the scholars and researchers know about this?

Why was the city abandoned?

Something told me the last question had a lot to do with the famed monsters and beasts that supposedly resided in these parts, which I was still fortunate enough not t

  • Fated to my Alpha nemesis    You look just like her

    MICHAELA'S POVI still hadn't recovered from the shock of what I was seeing when I heard footsteps, Soft and measured, approaching where I lay.I couldn't bring myself to move.The forest above remained as eerily silent as ever. No wind. No birds. No distant cries. Nothing but the steady rhythm of footsteps drawing closer.Within moments, my attention shifted completely from the creature hovering above me.Whoever was coming...They were close.My pulse quickened.And then I saw her.I froze. Completely. For a heartbeat, I simply stared. My breath caught. My mind refused to make sense of what my eyes were seeing.Because it couldn't.Recognition came slowly...Then all at once.I had to wonder if I was hallucinating. If the pain, the blood loss, everything I'd endured had finally broken something inside my head.Silence stretched between us. She stood over me, watching with dark, scrutinizing eyes.Eyes I recognized as my stomach dropped. Ice flooded my veins.I knew that face.The e

  • Fated to my Alpha nemesis    Frozen

    MICHAELA'S POV I swung the branch so hard that I felt something shift painfully in my shoulder. The creature shrieked as the blow connected, its body careening sideways. For one glorious second, hope surged through me. But then the creature staggered back to its feet. Its eyes found mine immediately. If hatred could take physical form, it would have looked exactly like that gaze. The creature bared its teeth. Then it came at me again. Fast. Far too fast. I braced myself, but before I could react, it vanished. My eyes widened. One moment it was charging directly at me. The next, it simply wasn't there. A sharp impact slammed into my back. The force tore a cry from my throat as I was hurled forward. I hit the ground hard. Pain exploded through my body. For a second, I couldn't breathe. I couldn't think. Couldn't do anything except lie there as agony pulsed through every bruised and battered part of me. The creature was on me. The smell hit first. Rot. Decay. Death.

  • Fated to my Alpha nemesis    The fall

    MICHAELA'S POV My foot slipped as I tried to get away. For one impossible second, I remained suspended between balance and disaster. Then gravity made the decision for me. The ground vanished from beneath me. My stomach lurched violently into my throat. The sensation was exactly like missing a step in the dark, only infinitely worse. I caught a clear glimpse of the creature above as my body went into free fall. It was absolutely hideous. Time slowed as I looked up at it. Loose stones, the ravine wall, the monster at the edge above me. It looked human in the way a broken doll looks human. Wrong. Deeply wrong. Its limbs were too long, the joints too sharp beneath skin stretched tight over bone. Patches of grey clung to its frame like old parchments. It's hair only appeared to exist in fragments on its head. The face was almost a person's face, yet absolutely not. Hollow eyes stared down at me. Eyes that sat too deep in the skull to be human. The creature's cheeks

  • Fated to my Alpha nemesis    Loophole

    DAMON'S POV "What do you mean they sent her to the Wilds?" I asked Mason, my voice deadly quiet as his explanation of everything that had happened while I was consumed by bloodlust finally sank in. The Wilds. Of all places. The Wilds. I closed my eyes for a moment, trying not to lose my composure as a war raged inside my head. Unlike what I might have let Rhoda believe, it was still frighteningly difficult to hold on to my sanity. Ever since I returned, I had felt myself teetering on the edge. When I finally opened my eyes, the situation wasn't any better. Mason was saying something to me, but I couldn't quite hear him anymore. Because suddenly all I could see was red. Rhoda watched me closely from the side, silent, her expression unreadable. My head pounded. My fingers curled into fists at my sides. The Wilds. I remembered the stories. Every wolf did. Expeditions that never returned. Scouts who vanished. Entire search parties swallowed by the fores

  • Fated to my Alpha nemesis    Where is she?

    DAMON'S POV "Where is she?" I asked Georgia, leaning against the doorframe with one hand, my head bowed low to prevent anyone from seeing my eyes. I got no answer. I lifted my head slightly, just enough to see Georgia frozen in the middle of the room, a spoon clutched in her hand as she stared at me wide-eyed. Several other kitchen staff appeared to be in a similar state of shock, their expressions a mixture of fear, worry, and apprehension. I clenched my fists, willing myself to be patient. Willing myself to stay calm. Even though I wanted to storm toward someone, anyone, and demand they tell me where she was before I started ripping things apart. I reminded myself that their reactions were valid. I couldn't exactly expect them to react casually to their Alpha showing up in the kitchen looking as though he'd just lost a battle against a forest. I staggered forward but nearly lost my balance as the room spun around me. That was enough to jolt some of the occupants out of thei

    MICHAELA'S POV Morning came painfully slow, yet I couldn't get half the rest I needed. After eating some food, my search for the Moonshade continued. I began heading for the ravine next when I realized I wasn't quite sure where I was on either the ancient or modern map. Everything that happened last night had thrown me off course, and it took a few hours to get back on the trail again. By late morning, I was already halfway to the ravine. I hadn't expected to get this far in such a short time with the plethora of thoughts that had been raging in my head since last night. I pushed everything that wasn't Moonshade-related to the back of my mind as I got closer to the ravine. As I approached the location, I realized I was growing increasingly nervous with every step. The ravine was my last hope, and I was banking everything on it. If I didn't find the Moonshade and make it back to the pack before midnight, the fear, the risk, the danger, everything I had endured would have

    “I’ll go first.”I step in front of Damon, reaching past him to tear a strip of fabric for his bandage.He watches me like he’s bracing for impact.I pause for a moment, considering my questions.There are too many.They’ve been circling my mind ever since he returned from the Winter Pack.Ever sin

    I startle at the sound of leaves crunching under boots. “Who’s there?” “Mia? Is that you?” I turn to find Cole picking his way toward me. “Cole,” I breathe. “How did you—” “I had a feeling they were going to come for you after what you did.” He finally reaches where I’m leaning against a t

  • Fated to my Alpha nemesis    Catch her

    My screams does not deter him. Oh no. “Don’t—” I start. He lunges again. Below me, the group spreads out in a perfect semicircle. Waiting. “Catch her,” I recall Damon’s words. He plans to force me out if this tree, I realize. Panic claws at my lungs as I adjust myself on the branches so I c

  • Fated to my Alpha nemesis    You are not the boss of me

    Rule number one for anyone living in a werewolf pack—especially if that person is human: Never humiliate the future Alpha. Rule number two? If you do, don’t get caught. I broke rule number one three hours ago. And right now, I just broke rule number two. “You can run, but you can't hide, h
