Silence prevailed in the car as Tristan drove, the sound of the engine filling the space between us. I kept my hands folded in my lap, but every now and then my eyes betrayed me, stealing quick glances at him. He looked... lost. His jaw was tight, his eyes distant, like he wasn't really here at all.

"Are you okay?" I asked, my voice soft.

No answer. His gaze was fixed ahead, and for a moment I thought he hadn't heard me. I shifted slightly, then tried again. "Tristan."

His head turned just enough, as if snapping out of a daze. "Huh?"

"Are you okay?" I repeated, more firmly this time.

He let out a smile, small and unconvincing. "Yeah."

That one word told me everything. Told me Kayla had her claws sunk deep into him. She had done something to him, twisted him in ways that made him... not himself. And yet here he was, forcing a smile at me like he was fine.

I bit down on the inside of my cheek, fighting the ache in my chest. Zayn's words came back to me focus on your studies. But

    Henry and I were hunched over the map spread across my desk, red pins marking vulnerable points along the northern border. “This stretch here,” I tapped my finger against the edge of the territory, “needs tighter patrols. We’ve had two reports of trespassing already this week. Double the guards at the watchpoint, and make sure the shifts rotate at dawn and dusk.”I was still explaining when a sharp pain lanced through my skull, sudden and blinding. My hand shot up to my head, fingers gripping my temple.Henry straightened instantly. “What’s wrong?”I gritted my teeth and forced myself to breathe evenly. “It’s nothing. Just… I’ve been having these headaches for some days now. They come out of nowhere.”His brows knitted. “Are you sure you won’t see the pack doctor? Or maybe even the hospital?”I shook my head, though the motion only made the pounding worse. “No need. I’m already taking medication.”Henry folded his arms, unconvinced. “And it hasn’t been working.”“I’ll be fine,” I said

    Kayla"What did you do to Tristan?"I tilted my head, arms folding across my chest as I let out a low chuckle. Poor girl, she really thought she had a chance. "Why?" I asked smoothly, feigning innocence. "What exactly did you see?""You just told Tristan to go to his room and he did without arguing. You did something to him, Kayla."I smirked, savoring the edge in her tone, the way suspicion laced her every word. "Oh, I did nothing, Selene. Tristan has simply come back to his senses, that's all."Inside, though, my thoughts drummed with satisfaction. The peace I felt when he obeyed without resistance... it was intoxicating. Finally, no arguments. Just silence and obedience. But I'd need more I could already feel the edges of his will trying to fight back, even if he didn't show it. I would have to speak with Mother soon, so we could go meet the man again and collect more potion. That was the only way to keep him mine, completely.Selene's eyes narrowed, anger clouding her face. "I don

    SeleneThe drive here had been silent, each of us wrapped in our own thoughts. And now, standing at the gates of the pack, I felt that silence stretch inside me like a taut string.Everywhere was decorated in gold and white, ribbons wrapped around pillars, flowers trailing along the entrance, and lanterns hanging overhead. Today was Tristan and Kayla's wedding the day that sealed everything. I didn't know exactly what I felt, but I knew one thing I wasn't going to walk in here looking broken. So I kept my head high, Liora dressed sweetly in her little gown in Ama's arms, while I smoothed down my own simple outfit. Zayn walked on the other side of me, his usual protective presence steadying me.Inside the pack hall, the crowd was buzzing with chatter, laughter, and the sound of instruments warming up. My eyes trailed instinctively to the front, where Kayla stood, draped in a gown that shimmered beneath the lights. I can't lie she was beautiful, radiant even, her hair pinned with tiny p

    SeleneThe lecture finally wrapped up, and I let out a quiet sigh as I closed my notebook. My first day of college—well, part-time college was officially over. I'd taken plenty of notes, and realized I hadn't exchanged a single word with anyone in the room. Not that they seemed interested either. Everyone had their little cliques already, walking out in pairs or groups, chatting about assignments or grabbing coffee together.I didn't feel out of place, exactly. Just... separate. And maybe that was fine. By the time I got home, Ama was seated at the sitting room like she'd been counting the seconds."There you are!" she beamed, practically bouncing. "So? How was it? Tell me everything. Were the lecturers nice? Did you make friends? Did anyone talk to you? Come on, don't leave me hanging!"I chuckled, shaking my head as I slipped past her. "I missed my baby. Where is she?"Ama groaned, stomping her foot. "Selene! That's not fair—you can't just dodge all my questions like that!"But I w

    SeleneA few days later...Everything felt different. Zayn had handled all the preparations for me tuition, supplies, even the little things I didn't think of. For the first time in a long while, I felt a spark of excitement. I was really about to begin something new. Something that was mine.I sat on the stool in the kitchen, idly crunching on a slice of apple while Ama stood by the stove, flipping the last pancake onto the pan with a little too much flair, like she was competing in some pancake contest."So," she said, sliding the golden-brown pancake onto a plate, "you're officially starting college."I rolled my eyes, popping the apple into my mouth. "Come on, I wouldn't call it college. It's just part-time."Ama turned off the stove, grabbed the plate, and carried it over to the table. She set it down with a little dramatic thud, then spun around to face me. "It doesn't matter. School is school. You are finally going to live the dream you've always wanted." She pulled out the cha
