"You don’t belong here."

Lila flinched, the voice from her past echoing through her mind like a cruel reminder. She sat on the edge of her bed, staring at the floor, her hands gripping the sheets. The room was dimly lit, the air heavy with silence, but inside her head, memories roared like a storm.

"He’s gone. There’s nothing left for you here."

Her breathing hitched. She could still remember the orphanage’s cold hallways, the way they dragged her away from the only home she had known. Anthony had promised her forever, but forever had been ripped from her hands the moment he was killed.

She squeezed her eyes shut, her chest tightening.

“No one wants a girl like you.”

She forced a deep breath, pushing back against the weight of those words, but they clung to her like shadows. Even now, sitting in the safety of her room, surrounded by walls that weren’t hers, she felt like an intruder in her own life.

Her gaze flickered to the mirror on the dresser. Her reflection stared b

    LILA POV When I finally woke up, I noticed that the sun was already high in the sky, meaning it was sometime in the afternoon. The steady beeping of machines around me sent an uncomfortable reminder of my past experiences in hospitals."Don't do that," Lucas's sharp voice cut through the silence just as I moved to take off the oxygen mask strapped to my face. The mask felt suffocating, and I wanted it gone. I turned my head slightly and saw him sitting nearby, a stack of papers in his hands, his expression dark and unreadable.Despite his warning, I didn’t hesitate. I reached up and removed the mask, ignoring the disapproving growl he let out. The moment the mask was off, I inhaled deeply, testing my breathing. Everything felt normal. As I focused on how my body felt, I became aware of movement beside me. Lucas had shifted, closing the distance between us."Put it back on," he urged, his tone firm."I'm fine," I insisted, frowning at him."You weren’t last night," he countered, his vo

    Lila POV By the time I stirred awake, the afternoon sun was already streaming through the windows, casting a warm glow over the room. The quiet hum of medical equipment surrounded me, an unsettling reminder of past hospital stays that I’d rather forget. "Leave that alone," Lucas’s voice cut through the silence just as I reached up to remove the oxygen mask strapped to my face. His tone was sharp, laced with something I couldn’t quite place—worry, perhaps? I turned my head toward him, finding him seated nearby, his fingers gripping a stack of papers. His expression was unreadable, but the tightness in his jaw told me enough. I ignored his warning, pulling the mask away from my face anyway. A deep breath filled my lungs, reassuring me that I could breathe just fine. Lucas let out a low growl of disapproval, but he didn’t try to stop me. Instead, he leaned forward slightly, closing the space between us. "Put it back on," he ordered, his voice quieter this time but still firm. "I

    LUCAS"I offer an apology, Lila," I spoke softly, my voice filled with all the feelings I tried to keep hidden. "I understand that my past actions made you feel bad. I cannot go back in time and change what I did, but I promise you, I will look after you until I am no longer alive," I told her honestly. "What I say is truly meant."Her eyes looked a little shiny, and her bottom lip started to shake. She seemed like she was about to cry, but she didn't. She turned her head away for a moment while I waited for her answer. I did not ask for her to forgive me. I knew it would take a long time, but I needed something from her. I felt like I was at my breaking point, almost dying from wanting to be near her."Yes," she said quietly after a little while, still looking away."Understood," I nodded my head and stood up straight. I kept gently moving my fingers through her short hair. Seeing that she didn't try to stop me from touching her made me feel very happy. It was a big good thing, and I

    Lila POV "Would you like to drift off to dreamland?" The deep sound of Lucas's words moved against my ear, like a soft, low vibration."Will you remain here with me?" I inquired, my own voice barely audible."I shall, if that is your wish.""Then, please stay," I whispered, a warm feeling of shyness spreading through my body.It had never crossed my mind that I could feel so secure and calm while nestled against Lucas. I had always assumed he was a person with a cold heart, a powerful individual who only sought to harm others to further his own goals. Indeed, in some ways, he possessed those qualities, but I had never realized he also had a gentle nature. He allowed me to cuddle close after sharing many kisses. I still had the urge to continue kissing him, but I restrained myself. I yearned for something passionate and fiery, yet he offered only soft, tender kisses. Not that they were unpleasant. I enjoyed them greatly, but I desired something more intense, and at that moment, it fel

    "No, Lila. Not tonight," Lucas said, his voice rougher than he intended.Lila’s eyes, wide and questioning, held his gaze. "But... why?"He turned away, the sudden silence in the room heavy. "It's... I don't want to overwhelm you. You've been through a lot.""Overwhelm me?" she repeated, her voice barely a whisper. "I feel fine, Lucas. More than fine."He knew he’d messed up. He felt the immediate sting of regret, a sharp, twisting feeling in his gut. Weeks of holding back, of careful restraint, suddenly felt like a terrible mistake. He wanted to reach for her, to pull her close, but he held back, fear a cold weight in his chest.The silence stretched, thick and uncomfortable. He needed to say something, anything. "Lila, I just... I worry.""Worry about what?" she asked, her voice tight."About pushing you too fast," he said, finally turning to face her. "I don't want to hurt you."She looked at him, her expression a mix of confusion and something else, something he couldn’t quite rea

    NEXT He reached out, his fingers tracing the line of her jaw. "Now, it's my turn," he said, his voice filled with a newfound confidence.He pulled her closer, his lips finding hers. The kiss was deep, passionate, a silent declaration of his desire.He wanted to reciprocate, to give her the same pleasure she had given him. He wanted to deepen the intimacy, to explore the depths of their connection.He moved his hands, his touch becoming more insistent, more demanding. He wanted to claim her, to possess her, to lose himself in the heat of their passion.He brought her to the edge of the bed and made her lay down. His hands moved over her body, exploring every curve, every sensitive spot. He felt her body tremble beneath his touch, her breath quickening with anticipation.He lowered his head, his lips finding the sensitive skin of her neck. He nipped and kissed, teasing her until she moaned with pleasure.He moved lower, his lips finding the soft swell of her breast. He suckled and nipp

    "Did you see the latest transfer?" Jake asked, his voice tight."Yeah," Lucas replied, his tone equally strained. "The offshore accounts are finally stabilizing. But at what cost?""Cost is relative," Jake retorted, his eyes fixed on the flickering screen. "We needed this. After… everything.""Everything being Lila almost dying, and Lawrence turning traitor?" Lucas pressed, his voice laced with bitterness."Don't," Jake warned, cutting him off. "Just… don't. We need to focus on what we can control.""And what exactly is that, Jake? Lila's in a fragile state, Lawrence is God knows where, probably plotting our downfall, and you're staring at numbers on a screen.""It's not just numbers, Lucas. It's damage control. It's rebuilding. It's… a distraction.""A distraction from what? From the fact that we're all falling apart?"Jake sighed, running a hand through his hair. "From the fact that I don't know what to say to her. Not yet.""She needs you, Jake.""You think I don't know that?" Jake

    "You're awake." Lila blinked against the soft morning light filtering through the window, turning her head toward the voice. Lucas stood at the foot of the bed, arms crossed, eyes scanning her like he was searching for something. "No thanks to you," she muttered, pushing herself up. Lucas’s jaw tensed. "You were dying." "And you thought forcing me to shift was the solution?" she shot back, her voice sharper than she intended. He didn’t flinch. "It worked." Lila exhaled slowly, her fingers curling into the blanket. He wasn’t wrong. The weight in her limbs had lessened, the perpetual ache in her bones faded. She felt… different. Stronger. Her wolf stirred beneath her skin, no longer a weak, silent presence. "I hate that you're right," she admitted. Lucas smirked, the expression brief but unmistakable. "I get that a lot." Lila rolled her eyes but shifted her attention to herself. Her arms no longer looked frail, the jut of her collarbone less pronounced. Tentatively, she

    Frostbite and Fireworks:"“You sure you’re not walking me into a trap?”Lila’s voice cut through the storm, low and razor-sharp, carried on the wind like a blade tossed by fate."Would I waste this much time just to kill you?” Arika replied without glancing back, her silhouette a blur through the thick curtain of snow. “Don’t flatter yourself.”"You’ve done worse for less."Lila adjusted the grip on her sidearm beneath her coat, every muscle coiled. “And you still haven’t answered how you got the servers out of here without leaving a trail.”"You'll see.”It wasn’t a tease. It wasn’t a threat. It was a promise laced with something darker—familiar, dangerous, and maddeningly vague.The snowstorm howled around them like a feral thing, wind battering exposed skin and biting through layers as they trudged deeper into the derelict port grounds. Long-dead cranes loomed like rusted sentinels, skeletal and forgotten. The place reeked of salt, decay, and memory.Lila kept scanning—trees, rooft

    The locket in Arika’s hand glinted one last time in the fading light before she tucked it into the folds of her coat, her fingers twitching as though the cold no longer bothered her—just the past that still clung to her skin.But Lila wasn’t finished.Not yet.She turned slowly, like a predator toying with a rival too confident for her own good. “You know,” she said conversationally, her voice laced with honeyed venom, “for someone who prides herself on good taste, I’m surprised you didn’t notice the warning signs.”Arika’s head tilted. “What signs?”Lila’s smile was all razor-edge charm. “Oh, just that Salicus was riddled with diseases. Biochemical ones. I should know—I left him with a few.”The blow landed with precision. A flicker of something passed through Arika’s expression—a stutter in her breath, a twitch at the corner of her mouth. She masked it quickly, but not quickly enough.“You’re bluffing,” Arika said, voice clipped.“Am I?” Lila stepped closer, letting her words drip.

    Lila’s lips parted slightly, but no words came out. That sentence—so personal, so venomous—stuck in her like a blade wedged between ribs.Arika didn’t wait for her to recover. She turned and walked slowly toward the edge of the clearing, her fingers brushing the frost-covered rail of a long-abandoned cargo lift. The silence between them thickened.“I had a guest once,” Arika called over her shoulder, too casual. “You might know him. Salicus Grante.”Lila’s body snapped to attention.The name landed like a hammer.“You’re lying.”Arika looked back, one eyebrow raised. “Am I?”“Salicus is dead.”Arika gave a mocking little shrug. “Is that what you tell yourself to sleep at night? Or just what you hope is true?”Lila took a shaky step forward. Her pulse thundered in her ears. “Where. Did. You. See. Him.”“Here. There. Doesn’t matter,” Arika said. “He’s a wanderer. A very persistent one. Had a few... interesting stories about you, too. I see where you get your taste in men.”Lila’s hands

    Chapter Title: Blood Tides and Buried Truths"You look older than I imagined. The cold's not kind to you, huh?"Lila’s voice cut through the air, sharp as shattered ice.Arika smirked, slow and poisonous. “And you still greet people like you’re handing out ultimatums.”“I only greet the ones who fake their deaths and sell lies for a living.”Arika’s eyes flicked down her nose, unfazed. “Still bitter, I see. At least that hasn’t aged.”The wind between them twisted, biting through cloth and bone alike. They stood ten paces apart in the heart of the abandoned clearing, surrounded by cracked concrete and frost-covered crates. The silence of the ruin only emphasized how violently the past clawed its way into the present.“You died,” Lila said, voice low now. Controlled. “That’s what they told me. What you let them tell me.”“They weren’t wrong,” Arika replied smoothly. “Not entirely.”Lila scoffed. “You faked your death and vanished. What else was I supposed to believe?”“That I had a rea

    The cold gnawed at Lila’s exposed cheeks as she emerged from the warehouse’s side exit and stepped into the clearing.A vast, open yard stretched before her.Flat, white, endless.The area must have once been the central cargo bay—a wide slab of cracked concrete now buried beneath ice and powdery snow. Massive tracks were etched faintly beneath the layers, ghost-lines of long-dead machinery. Here, where shipments had once been loaded, goods transferred, and orders barked, now only wind howled and silence ruled.She stepped forward slowly.Her boots sank with every crunching step, leaving deep impressions behind her. The expanse was so open, it felt vulnerable. Naked. No cover. No shadows to slip into. Just the broad chest of the clearing exposed to the grey sky overhead.Lila exhaled through her nose, eyes scanning left to right, then back again.No movement.No signs.And yet her pulse wouldn’t slow.Something didn’t add up.If this was Arika’s meeting point, where the hell was the e

    The snow swallowed their steps as they began to move again.None of them spoke.The world had gone eerily still, as if holding its breath. Lila led the way, eyes narrowed against the wind, with Jake close behind her left shoulder and Lucas covering their right flank. Their boots crunched against the crusted snow, the only sound in an otherwise dead landscape.With every step forward, the forest behind them shrank, consumed by the encroaching white.“This is madness,” Jake muttered under his breath, his voice muffled beneath his scarf. “Visibility’s garbage. We’re tracking straight into open ground. Arika wants us blind.”“She wants a meeting,” Lila shot back, not looking over her shoulder. “And I’m not turning back.”Lucas scanned the tree line one last time before sighing. “Yeah, well, if we die out here in the snow, at least it’ll be poetic.”The wind howled in answer.Their pace slowed as the ground sloped downward, snow now knee-deep. Every few steps, one of them stumbled. Lila’s

    Lila froze.The crimson dot shimmered against her coat, small but deadly. Her breath caught in her throat, her muscles wound tight. Not a single sound echoed behind her—no footsteps, no shouts, no signs of the guards or her brothers intervening. Just that quiet, icy stillness and the whine of wind over rusted steel.Where are you, Arika? she thought, pulse hammering.She didn’t raise her hands. She didn’t flinch. Instead, she stared up at the ridge. “You’re not going to shoot me,” she said, her voice even despite the cold in her spine. “If you were, you already would have.”A long beat of silence. Then a laugh—faint, hollow, metallic.The laser dot vanished.Lila exhaled slowly. Her hand dropped to her side, fingers brushing the outline of her weapon, but she didn’t draw it. That would only escalate things. She was here for answers, not war. Still, her unease grew by the second. Not because of the target on her chest.But because her wolf was silent.Utterly.Painfully.Silent.Why ar

    Through the Snow:"You're seriously doing this now? In this weather?" Jake's voice was low but taut, his breath misting in the cold air.Lila didn’t flinch. "The message said tomorrow. It’s already morning. Waiting is not an option."Lucas glanced toward the gray sky, his jaw flexing. "Visibility’s down to nothing. If this is a trap—""Then I’d rather spring it on my terms," Lila cut in, her arms crossed beneath her coat. The biting wind whipped strands of her dark hair across her face, but she stood her ground at the mouth of the estate garage, eyes fierce beneath the gloom."You’re making a mistake," Jake muttered, zipping up his jacket. "We could wait an hour. Maybe the snow will break."Lila turned to him. "Or maybe Arika will take the servers offline in that hour. We don’t know what she’s capable of anymore. We can’t afford to gamble."The heavy garage doors groaned open behind them, revealing three armed guards preparing the convoy. The steel-blue SUV at the front revved to life

    Lila's fingers twitched restlessly against her thigh, the room tightening around her as the conversation spiraled deeper into familiar but no less agonizing territory."If you come," she said, her voice breaking against the lump in her throat, "if either of you are seen—Arika could destroy everything. She won't hesitate, Lucas. You don't know her like I do."Lucas exhaled sharply through his nose, leaning forward, elbows braced on his knees. His gaze cut into her with razor precision, but there was no anger there. Only relentless, painful patience."I know you think she's a monster," Lucas said slowly. "But even monsters hesitate when they have something they value."Jake nodded, standing just behind Lucas like a second pillar of quiet strength. "She won't destroy the servers. She’s desperate for them. She made that clear when she sent you that message.""You’re wrong," Lila whispered, shaking her head. Her heart banged painfully against her ribs, desperate to be heard.
