[SAMANTHA’S Point of View][Samantha! There’s no way you’ll survive that thing! Run with the kids!][And what? Let you and Killian die in here?!] I snarled at my husband as I saw him grimace in pain. The wound was slowly healing, but the bleeding hadn’t stopped yet. Despite the injury, Dominic stood on his feet beside me and glared at the beast before us. His eyes were crimson, and he
[SAMANTHA’s Point of View]“What the—”The tension in my body disappeared, replaced by surprise and confusion, when I recognized the tall, muscular figure stepping out of an ancient oak tree.Dominic’s eyes widened in aggravation as he stepped before us and snarled at Killian. “What the f*ck are you doing here, Killian?! I thought it was clear that it should be only me and Samantha who are going to deal with this!”“You don’t tell me what to do, Dominic!” Killian scowled at my husband, but when he looked at me, his expression softened; he appeared apologetic and was seeking understanding as he stood up from his crouched position and let out a heavy sigh. “I came here because Brianne told me you would need my help. I have no plan to just stand and wait in your place while all of you are facing danger. I have sensed what is inside the underground cave, and there’s no way you would go there without me.”Killian stared at me as if I were the one who had to make all these decisions instead
[SAMANTHA’s Point of View]“We have no choice but to go back to the Black Forest.”Everyone gave me a dreaded look, and Dominic didn’t seem happy with my decision. He and Killian looked at me like I had just said the most ridiculous thing.“I hope you are joking, Sam.” Killian grimaced at the idea as he shook his head, his hands resting on his hips. “We barely escaped the last time we went there. And there’s no way you will bring the kids there! It’s f*cking dangerous! We don’t know what is waiting for us there! Black Claws and Fang Trinity want the three of you dead, and they would do everything to ensure you won’t be able to come back here in Silver Crescent!”“Why do you want to go back to the Black Forest, Samantha? Do you think we can find your mother’s body in there?” Liam asked as he stared at me as if he was reading whatever was on my face. As if trying to figure out what was in my head. “You know that it’s dangerous to go beyond the walls. Do you know anything that can lead u
[SAMANTHA’s Point of View]My husband's smile caught me off guard.After I saw Devon shyly put the wolftail grass on my husband’s hand, threatening his Dad never to make me cry again, I felt like my heart was flooded with love for my little family. Diana smiled at me; her eyes were enthusiastic as she gave me a gentle nod, like she was congratulating me.But then that familiar scream from the guard distracted me, and my eyes widened as I saw Killian pushing his way towards the stage. Behind him was the witch of the Moonstone pack, Brianne, who was ghostly pale as she caught my eyes with a dreaded look.I didn’t know the rest of what she said, but I heard her talk about the tomb.My forehead creased into a deep frown and confusion.My mother’s tomb?!Everyone in the crowd panicked when they saw the witch, and some screamed to drive her and Killian away. When Brianne fainted, I looked at my husband, terrified for my friend and Brianne, as Killian carried her and elbowed his way to us.D
[DIANA’s Point of View]I couldn’t understand what was happening, but I knew Mom was scared.I just wasn’t sure if it was about the giant men that came marching towards the hall, but the stares of all the people at her as she stepped up the stairs.
[ALPHA DOMINIC’s Point of View]`I knew the night would be the night our enemies would all come to take advantage of the situation—an important ceremony that would change the lives of the citizens of Silver Crescent. The night that Samantha will be crowned as the one and true Luna of my pack.“Are you ready for this night, Alpha?”
