Josh's POV

Mira and I walked to the security office together. Neither of us spoke much on the way. There wasn't much to say. Serena was missing and every minute we spent standing still felt like a mistake.

The security office was a wide room near the administrative block with a large desk at the front and three officers behind it. Filing cabinets lined one wall. A board covered in patrol schedules and shift rotations hung on the other.

The lead officer looked up when we walked in. He was a broa

    Josh's POVShe was breathing.That was the first thing I checked. My fingers went straight to her neck the moment I dropped beside her and I held them there until I felt it. Faint and uneven but present. She was on the grassy ground, breathing slowly."Serena." I called. "Serena, look at me."Her eyes were open. That was the confusing thing. She wasn't unconscious. She was looking up at the night sky with her eyes open and her chest heaving. Nothing on her face that suggested she recognised where she was or how she'd got there."Hey." I moved into her line of sight. "Hey, I'm right here. Look at me."Her eyes moved to my face.She looked at me the way one looked at a stranger on a bus. No flicker of recognition. ~This is crazy.~My chest tightened."It's me. It's Josh."She blinked and her lips moved."Where am I?" Her voice was weak."You're at the campus for the Joint Shift Contest," I took her hand carefully. Her fingers were cold. "Do you know who I am?"She looked at my face ag

    Mira's POVWe met at the garden gate at midnight based on the the understanding we reached in the storage room that if the security team showed no urgency by tonight, we would search for Serena ourselves.The security officers acted even worse than we expected. They didn't conduct any search. No investigation. No announcement to other students on the campus.So we agreed to move.Josh was already at the gate when I got there. He leaned against the gate with in his jacket pockets. His eyes had bags under them and his jaws were clenched. He clearly hadn't been sleeping well and he still wasn't taking things easy.I hated that he still blamed himself for not protecting her enough. But what could he have done? He was at his hostel when Serena vanished. He wasn't to blame for the situation.I stood next to Josh and stared into the moonlit sky. We didn't say anything to each other for a moment. Then I turned and looked at him. His eyes were red with unshed tears."Do you still feel her thro

    Serena's POVI'd been sitting against the wall for what felt like hours.My wrists burned from the chain holding them bound. My shoulders ached from being pulled back for so long. I wasn't going to just sit here and wait for whatever they planned for me.~Think, Serena. Think!~My shift was still suppressed. I felt a dark force pressing down on my wolf every time I tried to shift.But I hadn't tried everything yet. I hadn't pushed past the pain.I closed my eyes and pulled every bit of focus I had left and directed it inward. At the wolf behind it.I thought about Josh and Mira. They would be so worried about me. I needed to break free from here.I pushed until my head felt like it was splitting open and my whole body was shaking and the pain in my shoulders exploded white and hot.~Free me now!~I strained my muscles and let the shift take me. The darkness holding me back slowly cleared. My wolf broke free. I shifted fast. Faster than ever before. My bones rearranged, and my muscl

    Vessa's POVAs Bastian kissed Kayla on the stage, the crowd clapped harder. I clapped too, barely. My focus wasn't on the stage.My eyes were on Caden.He was sitting three rows ahead of me, next to Mira and Josh. His body language was off, like someone sitting through something they were enduring rather than watching. He didn't clap, although his friend had delivered a wonderful performance with Kayla on the stage.Mira and Josh were the same. They all seemed disconnected and worried about something.~What are they so worked up about?~The instructor returned to the stage to announce the next performers. I watched Caden lean over and say something to Mira. She nodded once.Caden stood up.Then Josh. Then Mira. Then Riven and Cael, one after the other, like they'd rehearsed the exit. They moved along the row quietly, stepping past knees and bags, and slipped out through the side door of the arena before the next act had even gotten on stage.Nobody around seemed to notice. The crowd's

    Justin POVThe first night was rough. The shelter barely fit all three of us, and none of us slept well. Every sound from the jungle had us jerking awake - birds, insects, rustling leaves. Without our wolf hearing, we couldn't tell if the sounds were threatening or harmless.When dawn broke, we were exhausted but alive."We need to organize," I said as we sat outside the shelter. "Divide responsibilities.""Who made you leader?" Mateo asked, that familiar challenge in his voice."Someone needs to take charge," I shot back. "Unless you have a better idea?""Maybe we should vote," he suggested sarcastically."Seriously?" I stood up, frustration already building. "We're stranded on an island and you want to have a democracy debate?""I'm just saying you don't automatically get to—""Stop!" Nivia interrupted, standing between us. "This is exactly what we can't do. Fight over stupid things like who's in charge.""It's not stupid," Mateo said. "Leadership matters in survival situations.""T

    Mira's POVAfter breakfast, we converged in the common room to discuss our next course of action. I sat on the arm of a worn sofa. Josh paced in front of the window, arms crossed tight over his chest. Caden stood near the door with his shoulder against the door frame. His eyes met mine and he flashed a gentle smile. I smiled back. I missed us hanging out, doing simple things together. Now, we didn't have time to train together or hold hands. Serena was our priority. Riven and Cael sat side by side on cane chairs. Tyrell came too, standing apart near the bookshelf. He looked dashing in his denim jacket. I knew Caden wasn't happy I called him, but we needed as many trusted hands as we could get. "If the security unit gives us nothing by tonight," I said, "we’ll follow the trail ourselves. We'll start at the garden gate. That's the last confirmed point. And from there, we'll work outward. I'm very sure we'll find her." "I'd already be out there already if it were only up to me," Jo

    Mira's POVJosh rushed over to me. He stepped between me and the Ironridge boy and put one hand on my shoulder. His grip was firm."What are you doing?""I'm trying to make him eat his words."An instructor cut through the crowd before Josh could say something. He was a thin man with permed hair an

    Mira's POV We arrived at Ironridge Academy by bus the next day. Josh sat beside me and pointed out buildings to me. He had been here before. The students here were built differently. Not just physically, though that was part of it. It was the way they carried themselves. The confidence. The aura

    Mira's POV I held the metal pole above my head in the bullet train and stared out the window. Buildings blurred past. Josh stood beside me, scrolling through his phone. His school bag dangled on his left shoulder. I wasn't really focused on the buildings. My mind was on the joint trial for The I
