Hello, my lovely readers. Thank you for coming with me on this journey. From the month of December, I’ll try harder to update multiple chapters per day. There will be no updates today and the day after. I have a severe migraine and will take a few days off to rest. Thank you for your support. See you soon ❤️

    KAZIEL I sit rigidly in the armchair, my elbows braced on my knees, forcing my breathing to stay even. Across the room, Eve sits on the floor in a lotus position. She glances up at me through Danika's lashes, her lips curving faintly."You're getting worse," she says. "You look awful."My jaw tightens. "Sit still, Dani."She tilts her head, concern written all over her face. "You don't sound well enough to be ordering anyone around."Kira stiffens in front of her. "Danika—""I'm just saying," Eve cuts in, already shifting her weight. "If he collapses, that complicates things, doesn't it?"She plants her palms on the floor and starts to rise."Don't—" Kira snaps."Don't move," I say at the same time, my wolf surging forward.Eve freezes halfway up, startled by the sudden tension. For a split second, something like irritation flashes across her face.Then she scoffs and drops back down onto the rug with an exaggerated sigh. "Come on, relax."Kira exhales shakily, pressing a hand to

    DANIKA I must've fallen asleep right there on the couch, I'm suddenly awoken by the sound of voices outside the house. Kira pads over to me and helps me up. Her movements are hurried. And despite how much I'm dying to ask questions, I let her steer me into her room, making me sit on the bed. Then she takes out a heavy looking tarpaulin and spreads it over the floor."What's going on?" I finally ask, and she gives me a smile."You'll be back in your body soon," she tells me and I nod, tearing up again as hope stirs within me. Once she leaves the room and I'm all alone, I think about my baby. Surely, she's perfectly fine, isn't she? What if Eve tries to hurt her? A whimper slips from my lips as I pull my knees to my chest, a tear sliding down my cheek. I would do anything. Anything at all to make sure my baby is safe.Biting my lower lip, I sneak towards the door, pressing my ear against it.Kira's voice reaches me first. Her voice is soft and warm and she speaks the same way s

  • My Monster   092

    DANIKA My teeth chatter uncontrollably as I stand on Kira's front porch, my arms wrapped tightly around myself, my bare legs trembling.I'm freezing.The clothes on me are barely clothes at all. They are thin and skimpy, meant to show skin, not protect it. My shoulders are exposed. My feet are numb in delicate shoes that were never meant for walking long distances.Almost like she wanted me to freeze to death.My breath fogs in front of my face. I hug myself tighter, nails digging into unfamiliar skin, and that's when it hits me again.This isn't my body.The reflection from the darkened window beside the door shows a girl I don't recognize. Sharper cheekbones. Strawberry blonde hair. A face that once pissed me off now staring back at me with fear.Eve's body.I swallow hard, my throat burning, and squeeze my eyes shut.My mind flashes back to the other day when I hung out with Kira. She'd mentioned her place offhandedly. I hadn't thought much of it then. Why would I? Who w

    KAZIEL At first, she's shaking in my arms, her breathing uneven. Suddenly, Danika lifts her head and looks at me. Her eyes are brighter than usual, and she's looking at me like she's about to devour me. Weird."Dove?" I say, a slight frown creasing my brows. She doesn't answer me. Instead, her hands slide up my chest, her fingers gripping my shirt, and then her lips are on mine.The kiss steals my breath because it feels wrong. Her lips move with an urgency that has no hesitation or warmth, only hunger. She feverishly moans against my mouth, and my body reacts on instinct.For a moment, I kiss her back. Then nausea smacks me so hard, I pull away abruptly, my chest burning as if I've swallowed fire. My stomach protests brutally."Wait—" I gasp, pushing myself off the bed.I barely make it to the bathroom.My knees hit the tile as I lean over the toilet and retch hard, my body convulsing as bile burns its way up my throat. Sweat breaks out instantly, dripping down my temples an

    DANIKA "Dove, are you okay? You've been zoning out," Kaziel says. We're seated in the sitting room the next day, waiting for Kira's arrival. He'd insisted on this because he wanted to make sure that my cores were stable enough for the ritual. I told him I was fine. Mostly.The truth is, my thoughts won't stop circling back to what happened yesterday. It just felt so wrong."I'm fine," I lie, then I let out a sigh. There's no point pretending with him. "I've just been thinking."He tilts his head, studying me. "About?""Kaz," I whisper and he leans in closer, attentive."Yes, sweetheart?""I think I saw Eve yesterday," I tell him and he stiffens."Where?" "I heard a knock on the front door when you were asleep. So, I went to check the monitor out. She was standing right there on the front porch but when I blinked, she was gone," I explain and his eyes go wide.I wait for him to tell me that I was probably just exhausted or sleepwalking. Or even that my mind had been playing tri

  • My Monster   089

    DANIKA The lights are dim, the only real glow coming from the screen beside the bed. I lie back against the thin pillow, my shirt pushed up, cool gel spread across my stomach. The sonographer moves the wand gently, her features calm. And that only worsens my anxiety. I try to breathe through my nose and stay relaxed. But I'm so scared.Kaziel is beside me, unmoving. His hand is wrapped around mine, palm to palm. And his fingers are locked so tightly around mine. I need that pressure. I need proof he's here.He hasn't blinked in a while.I can feel the fear rolling off him in waves even in the silence. He's barely even breathing, shadows under his eyes. My chest aches at the sight of him.‘Please,’ I pray silently. ‘Please.’The sonographer's lips curl into a smile."There you are," she says gently.My heart skips a beat.She turns the screen slightly, and for a moment I don't understand what I'm looking at. But then I see it. A tiny, frantic flutter among the shadows. A sob rips
