"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 going through your cycle, sweetheart," Lucas said seriously. His words echoed in my mind as I slowly accepted what was happening to me—it had finally begun.I opened my mouth to speak, but a rough cough interrupted me, my throat too dry to form any words."Water," I gasped between coughs. Lucas reached for the pitcher on my nightstand but muttered under his breath when he found it empty. He quickly left the room and returned moments later with a glass full of water.Tears pricked my eyes at the sight.“Here, I’ve got you, sweetheart,” he said gently, holding the glass to my lips. I drank deeply in three long gulps, feeling instant relief as the dryness faded.Just then, Jake burst through the door with a nurse in tow. But the moment he laid eyes on me, his expression changed to one of shock and realization.“She’s entering her cycle,” Jake stated grimly. The nurse quietly stepped out, sensing the intensity in the room, while Jake remained rooted at the door, visibly shaken. Hi

    The world vanished.A sudden void yawned beneath her, swallowing her whole. There was no cold, no warmth, no sensation—only weightless descent into darkness.Lila didn’t know when she stopped falling. She simply existed now, suspended in a chasm of shadows, her limbs numb, her lungs burning with the effort to breathe. She opened her mouth to scream, but no sound escaped. No air. No control.And then she saw them.Jake and Lucas—lying lifeless before her. Their massive wolf forms crumpled on the ground, fur soaked in crimson. Blood pooled beneath their bodies, steaming against the invisible surface of the void. Jake’s body was twisted unnaturally, ribs cracked, his throat torn open. Lucas's chest bore a gaping silver wound—precisely as she remembered it—stark and unforgiving.Lila’s heart pounded, but her body wouldn’t move.She tried to run. She tried to crawl. But her legs wouldn’t respond. Her arms were leaden weights. Her mouth opened in silent horror, but she couldn’t scream.She

    ---Asher’s hand lingered on Elena’s thigh, his thumb lazily drawing circles against her skin as they lay tangled on the bed. The room was quiet now, save for the soft hum of the wind brushing against the windows. But inside them, the storm had only just begun to settle.“Don’t fall asleep,” Asher murmured.Elena tilted her head against his shoulder, a sleepy smile forming. “I wasn’t planning to.”He shifted suddenly, causing her to squeak as he stood, still holding her. “Asher!”“We’re not done yet,” he said, voice laced with mischief and something deeper. “You need a shower.”She rolled her eyes but didn’t protest. “I see. So now I smell?”He glanced at her with a grin. “You smell like me. Which I love. But right now, I want to wash away everything else. The blood. The grief. The ache. Let me take care of you.”The words softened her completely.He carried her into the bathroom and gently placed her on the counter. Steam already fogged the mirror as he turned on the water. The sound

    “I said I’ll do it myself,” Lila snapped, her voice sharp enough to slice through the tension in the air.Jake flinched at the steel in her tone. “Lila, no one’s doubting you. We just don’t—”“You think I can’t handle it? That I’ll freeze up?” she cut in, eyes blazing. “You think I don’t know what this means?”“No,” Lucas said flatly, stepping forward, “we think you’ve been through hell. And maybe… maybe you shouldn’t carry this alone.”Lila’s fingers tightened around the small, black remote. The button under her thumb pulsed faintly, almost mocking. “I have carried this alone. Since the beginning. Don’t act like you understand.”Jake opened his mouth, but Lucas raised a hand, silencing him.“Then do it,” Lucas said evenly. “But don’t pretend you’re not scared.”“I am scared,” she hissed, her voice barely more than breath. “That’s why I have to be the one. I need to be the one.”Silence. Not the calm kind—this was the kind that throbbed, heavy with dread and the weight of unspoken thi

    Lila’s voice was hoarse when she finally spoke.“We’re not taking the servers back,” she repeated, slower this time, each word weighted with finality. “We’re going to destroy them.”Lucas turned sharply, his jaw clenched. “What?”She looked between the two men—her allies, her burdens, her regrets—and nodded, barely holding herself together. “Burn it all. Every drive. Every backup. It can’t leave this place.”Jake stared at her as if she’d grown another head. “Lila, what the hell are you saying? That’s the entire payload. Weeks of extraction. Do you know how many lives were lost to get these servers operational?”Her shoulders slumped. “I know. And if we don’t destroy them now… more will die. Worse than death.”Lucas stepped forward, disbelief written across his face. “You were the one who pushed for this mission in the first place. You were the one who said your sister’s servers held the key. Now you want to blow it all up without a word of explanation?”“I didn’t know what she was st

    “Lucas?” Lila’s voice trembled. “Tell me you remember.”Lucas stared at her, jaw tight. “Pieces,” he said quietly. “Just pieces. You said we were meeting your sister here. That she asked for our help.”“We were in the kitchen yesterday morning,” Jake added, brushing snow from his sleeves. “Lila made that strong black coffee I hate. You said we’d be back by sundown.” His brow furrowed. “But I don’t remember leaving. Just… headlights. Fog. Then this.”Lucas looked down at his palms. “I remember the drive too. The port town. The fog rolling in. But after that… nothing.”A heavy silence settled between them.Jake squinted toward the maze of containers behind them, his breath coming in short bursts. “How long were we out? What the hell happened here?”Lila hugged herself tightly, her arms wrapping protectively around her middle. Her skin looked pale and cold, and something flickered in her eyes—guilt? Grief?“You’re not telling us everything,” Lucas said, his voice lower now, almost accusi
