TRINITY

I lie in bed, staring at the ceiling, heart pounding in my chest. The house is quiet now—too quiet. My aunt and cousins are probably settled in their rooms by now, and I can hear the soft murmur of their voices, the occasional giggle. They’re drifting off to sleep, and with each passing moment, the tension in my chest builds. This is it. Tonight’s the night.

Tonight is the night I get out of this hellhole. I am not going to just sit here and wait to get rejected or killed.

So, I wait. I have to be sure. Every muscle in my body is coiled tight, ready to spring, but I need the silence. The stillness. I need them to be asleep before I make my move.

Finally, the house is silent. No more voices, no more laughter. I wait for a few seconds, holding my breath, and when I’m certain they’re asleep, I slip out from under the covers. My feet barely make a sound on the cold floor. My heart hammers in my chest, too loud, too fast, but I don’t let it stop me. I can’t stop. Not now.

  • HIDDEN HOWL   Chapter Eighty: The Unknown and the Unwelcome

    Xerxes’ POVI have always been one to enjoy silence,but not this time. This time, it was absolutely tormenting. The entire room was quiet. Too quiet.I stood with my arms crossed at the far corner of Trinity’s bedroom, every muscle in my body tight as the pack doctor adjusted his spectacles for the third damn time. If he does it one more time, I swear on everything I hold dear that not even the moon goddess herself could stop me from breaking those Liam sat on the edge of her bed, hands clasped between his knees. Nasir leaned against the wall, unreadable. Trinity was seated in the middle, her face calm, but I could feel the anxiety humming from her like a second heartbeat.The doctor cleared his throat. Again. He looked almost nervous, that couldn't be a good sign. The test he conducted either had two outcomes: He is an incompetent fool who couldn't find what was wrong with her, or he was competent and knew exactly what was wrong with her.And it wasn't good.Either way, I was losing

  • HIDDEN HOWL   Chapter 79: The revelation at the garden 

    Trinity's POV I woke to the empty stretch of silk sheets beside me. The realization hit me like a cybertruck, the warmth was gone and so was he.I reached across the bed anyway, fingers curling into the dent left by Nasir’s body. Disappointment tightened something in my chest. I didn’t know why I expected him to stay.Maybe because, for the first time in forever, I hadn’t woken up from a nightmare. Maybe because his arms around me had felt safer than any walls ever had. It filled me with so much comfort, I never wanted it to end.But of course, good things never last.I sighed, dragging myself out of bed. The early sunlight filtered through the curtains in lazy gold streaks. Everything felt too quiet.The hot spray of the shower didn’t ease the ache behind my ribs. My muscles remembered the way I had collapsed between my parents’ graves. My heart remembered too.When I stepped out of the bathroom, wrapped in a robe, I moved toward my closet, towel drying my hair with one hand. I was

  • HIDDEN HOWL   Chapter Seventy Eight: Shadows Behind the Crown 

    Luna Mira’s POVMy room glowed with golden light as the sun sank beyond the horizon, washing my bedroom in shades of amber and blood-red. I stood before the tall mirror, brushing my fingers over the embroidered collar of my ceremonial gown—midnight blue velvet threaded with silver crescent moons. Each stitch shimmered with the aura of power I’d earned, fought for, bled for. My makeup was done by me, no one in the blasted pack could do it to perfection, not like me. No one could do anything like me. My reflection held no sign of weakness, no crack in the mask. Only poise. Control. Purpose.Just like how it has been for years.And yet, beneath it all, something twisted in my chest. A nagging rage that wanted me to scream and destroy everything in sight. And it was all because of a single reason.Trinity survived.I thought I had hired the best hunters to bring me her head, but it seems they weren't as good as they claimed.I had seen it myself—her limp body in Xerxes’ arms, her skin u

  • HIDDEN HOWL   Chapter Seventy Seven: The Silence of the Library

    Trinity’s POVThe royal library was a world of its own—tall, arched ceilings cloaked in silent shadows, the faint scent of aged parchment and polished mahogany drifting through the air like a comforting embrace. It was much colder here than in my room, and yet I felt oddly more alive. Surrounded by books with titles like Mystics of the Moon, The Forgotten Bloodlines, and Lunar Heritage: Gifts from the Goddess. Honestly it didn't feel like I was still trapped in a palace, rather in a world of paradise.Liam and I had spent the better part of the morning flipping through pages, piecing together fragments of ancient knowledge in a desperate attempt to understand what was happening to me. According to what Liam had told me, I killed a bunch of wolves with just a flick of my wrist.How was that even possible?Was I some kind of witch or something?I sure hope I am. I know a bunch of stuff I would love to do with the magical abilities of a witch. A small, evil smile lifted my lips at the t

  • HIDDEN HOWL   Chapter Seventy Six: The Luna’s Apology

    TRINITYA strange sensation pulled me from the depths of unconsciousness, a dull ache radiating through my body as my senses slowly stirred awake. My limbs felt heavy, my throat dry, and for a few moments, I struggled to remember where I was. But then it all came back—the graveyard, the wolves, the blinding light, and the way my body had felt like it was no longer my own.What in the world had happened to me back there? What was that sensation? I let out a slow, shaky breath, trying to regain my bearings. The room was dimly lit, the soft glow of lanterns casting flickering shadows across the walls. Everything was still, eerily quiet. But something felt… off.And then I felt it.A presence.My heart hammered against my ribs as my eyes slowly fluttered open, and when they finally focused, my breath caught in my throat.Luna Mira stood by my bedside.The scream that left my lips could shatter windows.I jolted upright, ignoring the sharp ache in my muscles, my instincts screaming at me

  • HIDDEN HOWL   Chapter Seventy Five: A Mother's Betrayal

    LIAMThe sound of my boots echoed through the dimly lit halls as I stormed toward my mother’s chambers, my pulse hammering in my ears. I had never felt rage like this before—never felt such a consuming fire burn beneath my skin.I was always the calmest among my brothers. The rational one. The one who sought peace before war.But right now?There was no peace.Only fury.The guards at her door stepped aside immediately when they saw me approach, sensing the storm brewing inside me. I shoved the doors open without hesitation, the heavy wood slamming against the walls.My mother stood by the grand window, bathed in the moonlight, sipping calmly from a glass of wine as if she hadn’t just tried to have my mate murdered.She turned her gaze toward me, arching a brow. “Liam, what is the meaning of this?”I clenched my fists, stepping further into the room. “Why?”Her expression remained composed, but there was the slightest shift in her eyes. “Why… what?”I took another step closer, my brea
