KANE

The tension in the air was suffocating, every step we took through the dense woods accompanied by the weight of desperation. My heart was pounding hard, not from the exertion, but from the fear gnawing at me. Sierra was out here somewhere, and every passing second felt like another nail in the coffin of hope.

“Spread out!” I called over my shoulder, my voice sharper than intended. “We can’t miss anything. Every corner, every trail—check it.”

Zane, his face tight with worry, nodded and headed to the right while Dane took the left. The werewolves behind us, clearly reluctant, hung back like they were already defeated.

One of them muttered loudly enough for all to hear. “This is what we get for letting you guys stay. Trouble, just like I said.”

I stopped dead in my tracks, my hands clenching into fists. “What did you just say?”

The guy, tall and wiry with a sneer that made my blood boil, stepped forward. “You heard me. None of this would’ve happened if you people had just left when

    ZANEThe rhythmic clang of pickaxes echoed off the walls of the cursed cave, each strike sending a jolt up my arms. My brothers and I were determined, yet the harder we worked, the more impossible it seemed.“This is insane,” Dane muttered, leaning on his pickaxe, sweat dripping from his brow. “The cave… it’s not shrinking. It’s growing.”“Keep going,” I barked, my voice edged with frustration. “We’re not stopping until this thing comes down.”The werewolves watching from the shadows muttered amongst themselves, their unease palpable. One of them, an older wolf named Garret, stepped forward, his face lined with disapproval.“Zane, this is madness,” he growled. “Caves like these… they’re not natural. They’re protected by something we don’t understand. You’re inviting disaster.”I spun to face him, my chest heaving. “You think I care about some stupid superstitions? If you’re too scared to help, fine. But don’t stand there and tell me what I can or can’t do.”Garret held my gaze, his ja

    SIERRAThe silence in the cave was suffocating, wrapping around me like an iron chain. I slumped against the cold, jagged wall, tears streaking down my face. For days—or had it been weeks?—I had been hearing their voices. Soft, familiar whispers that called out to me, a lifeline in this dark abyss. But now, even they were gone. I was utterly alone.I pressed my hands to my ears, trying to drown out the oppressive silence. “Why?” I whispered to the emptiness, my voice breaking. “Why is this happening to me?”My tears came in waves, hot and relentless, until I was gasping for breath. I wanted to scream, to claw my way out, but no matter how hard I tried, the cave seemed to stretch endlessly. Every path I took led back to this same spot. It was like the cave was alive, mocking my desperation.Finally, exhaustion took over. My head drooped, and I let myself slide to the ground, curling into a ball. Maybe if I closed my eyes, it would all go away. Maybe I’d wake up and find this was all a

    SIERRAThe air in the cave grew heavier as the invisible laughter surrounded me, wrapping around my chest like chains. My heart thundered in my ears, a drumbeat of defiance. I’ve never been one to take threats lightly, and I wasn’t about to start now. Anger surged through me, hot and wild, fueling the fire inside me. Without a second thought, I let it loose.Flames erupted, spilling from my fingertips and racing up the walls of the cave. The entire space lit up with fire, a brilliant and furious blaze that should have reduced everything to ash. The heat was palpable, searing, and blindingly intense—but it didn’t burn. It didn’t scorch the stone walls, didn’t blacken the ground beneath me. It simply danced, twisting and flickering like it was mocking me. Every ounce of my power, every drop of my rage, and all of my fear poured into that fire, and yet it was useless here.The realization hit like a punch to the gut, but I refused to let it show. My teeth clenched, and I stood my ground,

    I sat alone in the cold, dark cave, the weight of the silence pressing against my chest like a thousand-pound stone. The air was thick, stifling, and it felt like every breath I took was being stolen from me. I had heard voices before—soft whispers, familiar ones—voices of my mates, their comforting tones reaching me across the distance, always guiding me, reassuring me that they were close. But now, silence. A deep, aching silence.I tried calling out, my voice breaking through the oppressive stillness, "Dylan? Velma? Where are you? Please... I need you."Nothing. Not a whisper, not a single breath.My heart ached as tears welled up, the sting of them sharp against my skin. "Why... why did you leave me here?" I whispered to no one, my words slipping into the darkness. My chest tightened with sorrow, my mind spinning, grasping for any shred of hope. It was hopeless, though. They weren't coming. They couldn't hear me.I shook my head, forcing myself to stand. No. I couldn’t just sit he

    SIERRAI shifted back into my human form, my breath coming in ragged gasps, every nerve in my body screaming for release. The moment my bare feet hit the cold cave floor, I glared into the shadows where the pale figures lingered.“If you don’t let me out of here right now, I’ll kill you all,” I snarled, my voice steady despite the chaos inside me.For a moment, the nightwalkers hesitated, their hollow, dark eyes widening as if my threat had landed harder than expected. Their fear was palpable, a ripple of unease spreading through their pale ranks. But then, one of them stepped forward, a woman with tangled hair that framed a face etched with centuries of suffering.“You don’t understand,” she said, her voice soft yet filled with despair. “If we could let you out, wouldn’t we leave ourselves?”Her words hung in the air, sharp and bitter. My anger wavered, frustration crashing in its place.“What do you mean you can’t leave?” I demanded, stepping closer. “You’re the ones who called me h

    KANEI woke with a sharp jolt, my body snapping upright as though I’d been struck by lightning. My hand flew to my neck, where a fiery sting pulsed. It wasn’t just pain—it was a warning, raw and electric, shooting through every nerve like a live wire.“What the hell?” I muttered, my fingers brushing over the mark that shouldn’t have hurt but now burned like it had been branded anew. My heartbeat thundered in my ears, the rhythm erratic and unsettling.The sound of groaning broke through my haze, pulling me out of my spiraling thoughts.“Kane?” Dane’s voice was thick with grogginess, but the discomfort in his tone was unmistakable. He sat up abruptly, mirroring my movements. His hand clutched his neck in the same spot as mine, his eyes wide with alarm. “Do you feel that?”“Yeah,” I replied, my jaw tightening as anger and fear wrestled for dominance. “It’s her mark. Something’s wrong.”Zane was next, muttering curses under his breath as he stumbled out of bed. His eyes were wild as he

    ZANE"What in the blazes are you talking about?" I scoffed, disbelief coloring my voice. "Cursed the Nightwalkers? You've gone completely bonkers."The three werewolves, their faces etched with ancient sorrow, exchanged a look. "We know it sounds insane, but it's true," the eldest rasped."Centuries ago, you came. Three Lycan brothers, with powers beyond comprehension. And we… you cursed us."I stared at them, dumbfounded. "Cursed you? How? Why?"He gestured towards a worn leather-bound book lying open on the table. "Look."Hesitantly, I approached and peered at the faded photographs within. My breath hitched in my throat. Those weren't just ordinary pictures. They were glimpses into the past, depicting events that had long been forgotten. And there, staring back at me, were faces I knew intimately – my own, Kane's, and Dane's, though impossibly young, their eyes filled with a strange, almost manic intensity."This… this can't be right," I stammered, my mind reeling. "How… how could w

    KANEI watched Luna Maya tremble in my father’s arms, her face pale and tear-streaked. Her hands clutched the edges of her dress like it was the only thing tethering her to reality. The weight of her silence pressed on all of us, but none of us had the courage to break it yet. My father whispered something soothing in her ear, though I doubted it was doing much good. How could it? The weight of what we’d just discovered was enough to crush any sense of hope.Dane finally cleared his throat, his voice a broken rasp. “Dad… you need to see this.” He slid his phone across the table to our father. The image on the screen burned in my mind—the faces of those pale figures, the so-called nightwalkers, staring back like ghosts of a nightmare.Our father picked up the phone, his brow furrowing deeply as he studied the image. For a moment, his expression gave nothing away, but then he sighed. Not just any sigh, but one that carried the weight of centuries. He set the phone down slowly, his hand

    SIERRA"Then it’s settled," I said firmly, standing up straighter, lifting my chin with determination. "I’ll learn. I’ll transfer the bond to an animal. Something harmless. A rabbit or a bird, anything."For a moment, the warlock just stared at me. Then he let out a loud laugh, an honest, surprised, borderline mocking kind of laugh that made my stomach twist."Your lack of magical understanding is quite admirable," he said, still chuckling, wiping the corner of his eye with a bony finger. "You truly are brave, I'll give you that. But no, Sierra. You can’t just toss a blood bond onto a bird like it’s a coat. That’s not how this works."My eyebrows furrowed as the bubble of hope that had been fluttering in my chest deflated completely. "But… why not? Why can’t I? I don’t understand."He shook his head and folded his hands over his lap. His voice turned softer now, more like a teacher speaking to a stubborn student. "Because blood bonds require something animals don’t have. A soul capabl

    SIERRAI stormed into the warlock's study, my chest tight with frustration and my fists clenched at my sides. The room smelled like old paper and burnt herbs, the air thick with the scent of magic and mystery. He looked up from the book he was reading, his brows already furrowed as if he knew why I was there."Tell me everything you know about blood bonds," I said without wasting a second. My voice was sharp, determined. I didn’t care how it came out. I needed answers.The warlock paused, his long fingers lingering on the weathered pages of the book he had just been flipping through. Slowly, almost dramatically, he closed the book and leaned back in his wooden chair. The silence between us stretched a little too long.“Why do you ask?” he said at last, his voice calm, but I caught the tension under it."Ariel mentioned it," I replied, trying to stay calm. "She said what she has with my sister is a blood bond."The moment the words left my mouth, I saw his expression shift. The color d

    SIERRAI stood frozen, my eyes wide and my stomach turning. The rabbits weren’t moving anymore. The white one had stopped twitching first, then the brown one slumped beside it. My hands were still outstretched, fingers trembling as the energy from the failed spell faded into the air like smoke.The silence that followed was unbearable. It was as if the whole world had paused to judge me, to make me feel the weight of what I had just done. I couldn’t breathe. I couldn’t even blink. All I could do was stare at what my magic had done.The warlock didn’t say anything at first. He just walked up to the small wooden pen, stood over the lifeless bodies, and looked down with a heavy sigh. His face gave nothing away, no anger, no sadness, just quiet acceptance of the outcome. Then he slowly turned to face me."This," he said, his voice low and sharp like a blade slicing through still air, "is what would have happened to your sister and Ariel if you had jumped into this blindly."The words hit

    SIERRAI had just finished spending time with my mates. My body still felt warm, and for once, my mind was quiet. I was finally beginning to feel like myself again.But then I heard shouting from outside.My heart jumped. I threw on a robe and rushed out.I barely made it past the hallway before I saw everyone gathered in the courtyard. And in the middle of it all… Ariel. Screaming. Crying. Holding a knife.“What the hell?” I whispered under my breath, my eyes widening.“I said let me in!” she yelled, her voice cracking. “You’re not the only one who loves them! I deserve to be in there too!”She was pointing the knife at her own chest, trembling like she was seconds away from doing something stupid.I didn’t even think twice.I raised my hand and whispered the first protection spell that came to mind. A shield burst around her in a dome of blue light. The moment it closed around her, the knife fell from her hand and clattered to the floor.She looked around in confusion, then rage.“W

    ARIELI paced the hallway, scowling, my arms folded tightly across my chest. For the fifth time, I tried to step forward, right into the damn hallway, and for the fifth time, it felt like I’d slammed into a wall. But there was no wall. Just… air. Heavy, invisible, and impossible to pass through."What the hell is going on?" I growled, pushing again, harder this time. Nothing. It was like the space itself refused to let me through. My breath hitched as anger flared in my chest. I wasn’t someone who got denied things. Not rooms. Not people. Not Dane.I turned on my heels and stormed down the hallway, heading straight for Maya’s quarters. If anyone knew what kind of stupid magic trick was being pulled, it had to be Sierra. I knew her mother was always around the others. Always listening. Watching, and I needed to see her, and I asked what the hell was going on.When I got to her door, I didn’t knock, I kicked it. Hard.“Ariel?” Maya’s voice called out, soft and hesitant. She opened the d

    SIERRAThe warmth of their arms around me made it easier to breathe. The tension that had wrapped around my chest like a tight rope was starting to loosen, bit by bit. Zane’s steady heartbeat under my cheek, Dane’s arms around my waist, and the calmness in Kane’s eyes, everything felt safe here. I felt like I was finally home.But it wasn’t just the comfort. It was the way they looked at me. The way they held me was like I was the most precious thing in the world. Like they’d fight the stars if it meant keeping me safe. I hadn’t realized how much I needed them until this moment. I needed to feel wanted, needed to be touched, loved, needed to feel alive again.“I’ve missed this,” I whispered, glancing up at Zane, my fingers gently resting on his chest.“We’ve missed you more,” he replied softly, brushing his lips over my forehead.“I don’t like seeing you this stressed,” Dane murmured behind me, nuzzling into the crook of my neck. “Let us help you relax.”Kane was kneeling beside me ag

    SIERRAI ran out of the room angrily and frustrated. I didn’t want to talk to anyone. I didn’t want to explain how I felt, not even to Alpha Thane. I just needed to get away, to let the frustration and fear out in a way that made sense. And that’s why I shifted.The air felt cold on my fur as I ran, my paws pounding the earth beneath me, my mind barely able to process anything except the need to escape. My heart was racing, and the adrenaline pumping through my body only made the anger and fear swirl together like a violent storm.I ran deeper into the woods, ignoring the world around me, just focused on the rhythmic pounding of my paws. The trees blurred by in a mixture of green and brown, the earth beneath me firm and solid. But even in my wolf form, the worry gnawed at my insides, and all I wanted was for the weight to lift, even if just for a moment.Eventually, the tension in my body started to ease just a little, but I wasn’t running anymore. I slowed down and then stopped, my b

    SIERRAI walked into the room, my mind racing with questions. The man, the warlock, was standing by a table covered in books and strange artifacts. His eyes flickered up when I entered, and I could feel the weight of his gaze. He knew why I was here."You are here," he said, his voice calm but heavy with something I couldn't place.I didn't waste time with pleasantries. "I need your help," I said bluntly. "I need to learn how to use my powers. And I need to do it fast."The warlock raised an eyebrow, his expression unreadable. "Binding spells," he said slowly, almost to himself, "are tricky. Especially one like the one you're asking for."I didn’t have the patience for his caution. "I don’t care about how tricky it is," I snapped. "I need to stop her. Ariel is... she’s going to ruin everything. I can’t let that happen. I just need to know how to make it work."He looked at me, the seriousness in his eyes growing. "Binding spells are not something to take lightly. They tie you to someo

    SIERRAI could feel my whole body burning with anger as Ariel’s voice cut through the garden like a sharp knife. She just stood there, smirking at us like she hadn’t just interrupted something important, something real.I turned to her, fists clenching at my sides. "Don’t you have anything better to do than irritate me?" I snapped, my voice louder than I intended. Dane shifted uncomfortably behind me, but I didn’t care. I was tired of her games.Ariel just giggled like I had told her a joke. "Nope," she said with a sweet shrug. "Turns out, irritating you is way more fun than I ever thought it would be."I wanted to slap that smug smile off her face. I really did. But I held myself back because that's exactly what she wanted, to push me until I broke.Then she turned her full attention to Dane, her smile softening in a way that made my stomach twist in disgust. "I miss Dane," she said in a whiny voice. "I want him to stay with me for a while."I stepped protectively in front of Dane w
