The scream that tore from Jacob’s throat silenced the battlefield for half a second.

Silver light exploded outward from the center of the clearing so violently that wolves across the battlefield stumbled backward. The cracked earth beneath the old oak split wider while loose stone and broken branches lifted briefly into the air from the force of the surge.

Faye held the baby tightly against her chest while Jacob dropped to one knee beside her.

Every vein beneath his skin glowed silver.

  • His rejected curvy secret    Korran’s Desperation

    Korran pov Everything I believed about the awakening was collapsing in front of me. The silver field surrounding Faye and the child no longer looked unstable in the same way it had before. The power still surged violently at times, but the destruction had slowed. The pulses no longer tore through the battlefield blindly. Because the burden was spreading. Shared. Divided between the wolves connected to her. I stared at the clearing in disbelief while blood dripped slowly from my injured hand. “No,” I whispered. This was wrong. The awakening was never designed to work this way. The vessel was supposed to stand alone. That isolation was necessary. It was part of the process. Part of the sacrifice required to contain power this old. But Faye had changed the balance. Not through strength. Through connection. The realization made something cold settle inside my chest. All these years… All these decades of study… And somehow I still failed to understand the most important p

  • His rejected curvy secret    The Pack’s Gamble

    The scream that tore from Jacob’s throat silenced the battlefield for half a second. Silver light exploded outward from the center of the clearing so violently that wolves across the battlefield stumbled backward. The cracked earth beneath the old oak split wider while loose stone and broken branches lifted briefly into the air from the force of the surge. Faye held the baby tightly against her chest while Jacob dropped to one knee beside her. Every vein beneath his skin glowed silver. “Jacob!” Faye cried. He could barely answer her. Pain ripped through his body in waves while the echo forced itself into him completely. His hands trembled violently against the ground as memories, emotions, and raw power flooded through his mind all at once. But he was still alive. And everyone saw it. Korran stared at him in disbelief. “That should not be possible,” he whispered. Elara forced herself upright weakly despite the blood covering her side. Her exhausted eyes locked onto Jacob i

  • His rejected curvy secret    Jacob’s Stand

    Jacob POV Fear tells people to survive. Love tells them to stay. The ground beneath the battlefield continued breaking apart while wolves stumbled backward in panic. Deep cracks spread through the clearing as silver energy exploded uncontrollably from the baby in Faye’s arms. Nobody understood what was happening anymore. Not Elara. Not Korran. Not even Faye. And that terrified me more than anything else. Another violent pulse burst outward from the child, knocking several wolves off their feet again. A corrupted fighter screamed as silver light tore through his body before throwing him backward into the broken remains of the old oak’s roots. The entire clearing shook. “Fall back!” someone shouted. “We can’t stay here!” “The ground is collapsing!” Panic spread quickly through the surviving wolves. Some started retreating toward the edges of the clearing while others dragged injured pack members away from the spreading cracks in the earth. But I couldn’t move. Becaus

  • His rejected curvy secret    The Breaking of the Echo

    Faye pov Pain tore through my head so violently that I could barely breathe. The moment Korran’s ritual reached the center of the field, something inside me broke apart. I dropped to my knees beside Elara instantly while clutching my daughter tightly against my chest. A sharp pressure ripped through my mind like something alive was being dragged out of me piece by piece. The ancient voice screamed. Not in anger. In pain. My entire body shook from the force of it. “No!” I cried out. The silver light around us flickered wildly before dimming for a second. The moment it weakened, panic rushed through me so hard that my hands started trembling. My daughter’s glow was fading. The baby whimpered weakly against my chest while the silver marks beneath her skin flickered on and off unevenly. “No, no, no…” I whispered desperately. Around us, the battlefield had completely lost control. Wolves screamed while corrupted fighters tore through the defensive lines. Blood covered the

  • His rejected curvy secret    Elara’s Sacrifice

    Elara pov Some people spend their entire lives running from guilt only to realize too late that guilt never truly leaves. The moment Korran began chanting, the battlefield changed completely. Every corrupted wolf lifted their head together before charging forward at once. The hesitation disappeared from their eyes instantly. Whatever uncertainty remained inside them vanished beneath the force of Korran’s ritual. Panic exploded across the clearing. “Hold them back!” Jacob roared. The pack immediately rushed forward to intercept the surge, but the corrupted wolves moved faster than before. Their bodies jerked violently with unnatural aggression as they crashed into the defensive lines. Screams tore through the battlefield almost immediately. I turned toward Faye without thinking. The silver field around her had become unstable again. The light flickered violently while dark energy from Korran’s ritual pushed against it from every direction. Faye stood frozen with the baby held

  • His rejected curvy secret    The Rejection

    Korran pov Control was slipping from my hands, and I hated how unfamiliar that feeling had become. The battlefield remained frozen around the unstable silver field while wolves stood divided between fear, loyalty, and exhaustion. Nobody moved carelessly anymore. Nobody trusted the next moment. But my attention stayed fixed entirely on Faye. The echo surrounding her had changed again. Not weaker. Different. I could feel it clearly now. The ancient presence inside the awakening was no longer fighting her as aggressively as before. The energy had become steadier and more focused, almost as though some form of balance had finally begun to settle between them. That was not supposed to happen. Faye was supposed to resist longer. She was supposed to break under the pressure of the choice. Fear should have driven her toward hesitation. And hesitation would have given me the opening I needed. Instead, she was adapting. The realization tightened every muscle in my

  • His rejected curvy secret    First Steps

    Faye POV The pack house doors closed behind us with a heavy thud that echoed down the stone steps. Sunlight hit my face all bright and warm, but it didn’t touch the cold knot in my stomach. Two days. That was all we had until the full assembly. Two days to prove I wasn’t just a girl with glowing

    Faye pov The silver glow on the stone had already started to fade by the time Harlan finished speaking, but the energy in the circle refused to settle. Wolves didn’t rush off right away. They drifted apart slowly, in twos and threes, with their heads bent close as they talked in hushed voices. Yo

    Faye povI sat on the edge of my cot with my daughter cradled in my arms again. She nursed quietly, with her small mouth working in steady pulls that made my chest ache in the best way. Every time she fed it reminded me why I had stepped forward in the courtyard, and why I had offered my life witho

    Faye pov The soft light filtering through the white canvas felt gentle on my face when I first opened my eyes. It was morning, or close to it. The tent smelled like wood smoke, herbs, and the faint metallic tang of healing salves. My body felt heavy, as though every muscle had been squeezed and le
