Lira

The day crawled by in a haze of anxiety.

I’d never felt this level of nervousness and sadness before.

Not even when I ran away without knowing if I’d survive.

Tova’s silence and rejection felt like a manifestation of every fear I nursed.

If she, who wasn’t deeply implicated by my lies, could react like this, then what about the people directly involved? My mates, whom I’d been lying to for months.

It felt like walking on eggshells around Tova, even though we were barely ever in the same room.

I caught glimpses of her. Every time our paths crossed, she looked away and found somewhere else to be.

The fracture between us was killing me.

Kain was busy all day with meetings and ceremonies. Same with Jax and Riven.

I was alone, this secret now feel

    JaxI didn’t remember crossing the distance between the tunnel entrance and where they were holding Garrick.One moment I was staring at the dead guard’s slit throat, the next my fists were connecting with Garrick’s face.His head snapped back. He staggered, but I didn’t let him fall. I grabbed him by his collar and hit him again.“WHERE IS SHE?”My voice didn’t sound like mine. It was an animalistic roar.More than one hand grabbed me from behind, trying to pull me off.“Jax, stop!”“You’re killing him—”I shook them off and hit Garrick again. His eye was already swelling shut. His lip split. I didn’t care. I wanted to break every piece of him until he told me where Lira was.“I DO

    RivenThe moment I stepped outside the ceremonial tent, I bent over and heaved.Nothing came up. Just dry retching that left my throat raw and my eyes watering.I straightened slowly, wiped my mouth, and looked around.The ceremonial grounds were beautiful. This was the most heavily fortified event we'd ever hosted.Nothing could go wrong. We'd made sure of it.So why did I feel like the world was about to end?I moved away from the tent toward a small water fountain near the edge of the grounds. My hands shook as I cupped water and tried to drink. Most of it spilled."Riven?"I turned. Athena stood a few feet away, frowning.She wore her ceremonial priestess robes, simpler than Tabitha's but no less meaningful. Around her neck hung her totem: a circular pendant divided

    RIVENThe ceremonial hall smelled of incense and ancient wood.I stood to Kain's left, Jax to his right, both of us in formal ceremonial robes that weighed heavy on my shoulders. The fabric was embroidered with Wild Fangs symbols in gold thread, wolves running beneath crescent moons, trees with roots that became claws.Before us, hundreds of witnesses filled the space. Visiting Alphas in their territorial colors. Council elders in traditional dress. Our own pack members, dressed in their finest, faces glowing with pride and anticipation.This was supposed to be our triumph. The climax of everything we'd worked toward since our father's death.But I felt off.The nausea that wouldn't fade, and the strange tightness in my chest. I told myself it was stress.I was wrong.The ceremony had begun at dawn with the ritual cleansing. Kain had been bathed in water drawn from the spring, dried with cloth woven by the pack's eldest women, dressed in layers of garments each representing a diff

    Lira I met her downstairs and thought she would turn away.Instead, she came toward me and took my hand.I almost cried in relief. I knew I was going to combust if she didn’t remain my ally.Even though I’d be super greedy to expect that.“I’ll stand in for you,” she said. “If the truth comes out, I’ll accuse Kain of forcing me into the fake engagement.”I frowned.“Tova? You don’t need to do that.”“Maybe not. But I’m not letting you face this alone, even if this is probably going to end badly.”Tears pricked my eyes.I didn’t deserve her.We stood there a moment, then both started crying and hugged.“I’m sorry,” I sobbed. “I’m so sorry for everything.”“I know. I’m sorry too. But sorry I can’t fix it.”“They’ll never forgive me,” I said.“Maybe not, but at least they will know the truth.”______Something was about to shift. I was in my bedroom when I felt an unexplainable heaviness.“I’m sorry,” I whispered to the empty room. To Kain, who’d become Alpha Primus today and didn’t kno

    LiraI made it back to my room before I burst into tears, sat on my bed, and pressed my hands over my mouth to muffle the sobs.A knock on my door made me freeze.“Lira.” Tova’s voice.I remained still.“I know you’re in there. Let me in.”I wanted to refuse, to hide, to pretend I was fine and avoid this conversation.But I was tired of pretending.I opened the door.She came in, hair already rolled, wearing a robe.“We need to talk,” she said.I nodded and sat back down on the bed.She stayed standing, arms crossed.“Is there any way to break the curse?”The question startled me.I hesitated before replying.
