View MoreIRIS'S POVGRAVE CHOICESWe drove back to the Green house in silence, the weight of what had just happened hanging thick in the air. Lyra and Logan sat in the backseat, unusually quiet for their age, and I could feel their eyes on me, watching, wondering.I knew they had questions, but I couldn’t bring myself to answer them yet. My mind was still spinning, my heart still aching from the betrayal I felt, not just from Gavin, but from everyone who should have protected me.As we pulled up to the house, Helen was waiting for us, her arms crossed, concern etched into her face. I stepped out of the car, and the moment she saw the look in my eyes, she hurried over.“What happened?” she asked, her voice low, trying not to alarm the kids. “You didn’t say much on the phone, but I could tell something was wrong.”I glanced back at Logan and Lyra as they climbed out of the car, their small faces filled with uncertainty. “Later,” I whispered to Helen. “I’ll explain everything, but not in front of
IRIS'S POVTHE LIES STINThe drive to Gavin’s mother’s mansion was suffocatingly silent. I sat with my arms crossed, staring out the window, refusing to even glance in Gavin’s direction. He’d tried to speak to me a few times, but I wasn’t ready to hear his excuses.The weight of his betrayal, the lies, the danger we were now in because of him, it was too much to process. Every time I thought about the message, about what he had kept from me, it made my blood boil.When we finally pulled up to the mansion, I didn’t wait for Gavin to open the door. I was out of the car before it even stopped completely, the anger driving me forward as I headed inside.Lyra and Logan were the first to see us, running up with their bright, innocent smiles, their little arms wrapping around my waist and Gavin’s in warm, excited hugs. For a brief moment, I softened, bending down to kiss the tops of their heads. They were everything to me, my world, and I would do anything to keep them safe.But that moment
IRIS'S POVI WANT THE TRUTHHe didn’t answer right away, his jaw tightening as he read the message again. His silence only made my frustration grow.“Gavin, you need to tell me what’s going on. Now,” I said, my voice low and insistent. “What have you gotten yourself into?”Finally, he looked up at me, his eyes filled with guilt and something else, something that looked like fear. “Iris, I… I didn’t want you to find out like this.”“Find out what, Gavin?” My voice was a mixture of anger and disbelief. “You’ve been hiding something from me, something that could put us in danger!”He sighed, running a hand through his hair, his shoulders slumping as if the weight of the world had just crashed down on him. “I didn’t want you to worry. It’s complicated.”“Then uncomplicate it,” I snapped, crossing my arms over my chest. “Tell me the truth. All of it.”Gavin hesitated, his eyes darting from the phone to me. “There’s a curse,” he started slowly, as if testing the words. “A long time ago, I m
IRIS'S POVHONEYMOON GONE WRONGI woke to the soft sounds of birds chirping outside the window, the warm morning light filtering through the curtains. The scent of something delicious wafted through the air, tugging me gently from sleep.I stretched, feeling the lingering warmth from the night before still in my bones, a smile already forming on my lips. Gavin.Last night had been everything I needed, a reminder of the love we shared and the deep connection that always brought us back together, no matter how chaotic was becoming latelyI turned over, expecting to find him beside me, but the bed was empty, his side cool. Did he leave again? I thought but the scent of breakfast growing stronger told me I could be wrong and I knew where he was.I slipped out of bed, wrapping a soft robe around me, and padded toward the kitchen.Before I reached the doorway, I heard Gavin’s voice, low but excited, speaking on the phone. I leaned against the wall, listening for a moment.“Yeah, Jerry, I wa
IRIS'S POVAFTER CORONATION NIGHTThe celebration at the Green family house was in full swing. Laughter and chatter filled the air, the sounds of clinking glasses and lively conversations echoing around me.The pack members, who had stood by me during the coronation, now celebrated as one, a feast laid out in my honour.Our family’s long table overflowed with food and drink, and the sense of unity in the room made me feel the weight of the crown in a different way, lighter, warmer.I stood to the side with Gavin, Lyra, and Logan, the soft buzz of their voices grounding me in the midst of the excitement. Gavin was telling the kids a story, making them laugh, and I watched the three of them, my heart swelling with gratitude. In this moment, I felt a sense of peace, a quiet joy.But it didn’t last long.I felt the shift in the room before I saw him. My father approached, his tall figure cutting through the crowd like a knife. His eyes locked on me, and I knew this wasn’t just a casual gr
IRIS'S POVCROWNED LUNAI stood at the centre of the ceremonial grounds, my heart pounding in my chest. This was the moment I had been preparing for, my coronation as Luna of the Green family and the Blue Moon pack.The ancient, sacred ceremony that would solidify my role as leader, protector, and mother to the pack.I glanced around, my eyes quickly finding Gavin as he entered with our children, Lyra and Logan, in tow. His mother walked beside them, her face glowing with pride.Behind them, I saw Helen, Jerry, and June, my dear secretary. I was shocked to see her and at the same time glad she was finally discharged from the hospital.I know it was Helen's doing, bringing June here even when she hadn't fully recovered from the attack. I glanced at Helen, she knew what the eye contact was meant for.“It was her idea, not mine.” I read her lips from where I sat.Despite her frailty, she was here, standing tall, determined to witness this moment. The sight of them warmed me. They believe
GAVIN'S POVI'M SORRY WIFEYAs I sat there, I kept running over what I would say to her. How would I explain my silence, my absence? How could I convince her that everything I did was to protect us, to find a way out of this nightmare?But the truth was, I didn’t even know how to protect her from this. I was still as lost as I had been the day the witches cursed me.By the time I reached the building, my heart was racing again. I paused outside, taking a deep breath before stepping through the door.And there she was.Iris stood at the far end of the room, talking to one of the Blue Moon elders. She looked as composed as ever, her posture straight, her voice calm, but I could see the strain in her eyes.She hadn’t slept well. Maybe she hadn’t slept at all. I swallowed hard, guilt washing over me.As if sensing my presence, she turned toward me, her eyes locking onto mine. For a moment, neither of us moved. There was no anger in her expression, just exhaustion. And maybe a little hurt.
GAVIN'S POVREMINI didn’t wait for the sun to fully rise before I set out to find Iris.When the maid told me Iris had already left the house, my stomach dropped. I thought of the worst possible scenarios in that split second, had she left me? Was she that upset with me?“She’s gone to attend to some duties at the Blue Moon Pack,” the maid added quickly, probably sensed my panicking last night.I exhaled slowly, trying to calm my nerves. The Blue Moon Pack. That made sense. Iris was responsible and level-headed, always thinking of her people, even when I was being a disaster.Still, the guilt gnawed at me. We were supposed to be planning our honeymoon, not dodging curses and witches and everything in between.I grabbed my keys and made my way to the car, my mind racing with what I would say to her. Apologies felt hollow after everything I had put her through.She deserved more than an apology. I had disappeared without a word, without a text, and left her wondering where I’d gone on
GAVIN'S POVIRIS LEFT?The witches' eyes glinted with dark amusement as they watched my inner turmoil. They enjoyed this, watching me wrestle with my own conscience, knowing the power they held over me.“Make your choice,” the lead witch said, her voice low and dangerous. “But know this—our offer won’t stand forever.”I turned away from them, pacing at the edge of the clearing, my mind spinning. Iris. I could see her face in my mind, her smile, the way she looked at me with such love and trust. She didn’t know about any of this.She didn’t know what I had been keeping from her, the curse, the danger that followed me like a shadow. If I went back to her like this, cursed, vulnerable, I couldn’t protect her from the threats that were bound to come our way.But if I went back with blood on my hands… would she even recognize the man I had become?Jerry was watching me closely, his expression tight. He didn’t need to say it. He knew what was at stake, but he was hoping, probably praying th
