HildaThe kettle whistles just as the fire sputters, a gust of wind moaning against the windows like a restless spirit. I pour the hot water over the dried mint and lemon leaves in my mug, letting the scent rise up and soothe my frayed thoughts.I miss my daughter. She’s only been gone a few days, but every bone in my body feels the ache of distance.I’m standing by the hearth, cradling the steaming mug in both hands, when her voice suddenly breaks into my thoughts as though I summoned her.“Mom?”My heart leaps with joy. She’s let us know every night that she’s safe, but she hasn’t made contact just to talk before now. “Sweetheart! It’s so good to hear from you. How are you?”“I need a second opinion.”I close my eyes and open myself fully to her. Delighted that she knows I’m always happy to be her sounding board. “I’m listening.”She takes a breath through the bond. I can almost see her chewing the inside of her cheek.“I met someone.”Ah.“A boy?” I ask lightly.“A man,” she correc

(Hilda)“Hilda, you can’t fight them alone, you have to go! You have to run!” my mate, Alpha Soren, shouts with the last of his strength. He tries to lift himself off the ground, reaching for me, and I take his hand. “I’m not going anywhere.” I kneel beside him, looking into his eyes. “I love you, Soren. We’re going to survive this together. Or we’ll die together.” “No!” He yells. “Please Hilda, you have to run!”As the words leave his lips an arrow strikes my side. I collapse to the ground, laying beside him, as he cries out my name. I want to comfort him, to reassure him I’m alright, but I need to conserve my strength.With great determination I struggle back to my feet. I’m going to keep fighting to protect him until I exhale my last breath.“Hilda. If we make it out of this alive, I’m making you my Luna. No more wasting time. I love you.”***The world is dark all around me, but his words are a warm, soft blanket surrounding my heart. I wonder where the heavy smell of herbs is c

(Hilda)It’s Cerelia’s Luna coronation ceremony today. It seems like only yesterday that I believed it would be me standing beside Soren, surrounded by our pack, while he confirmed that I was to be his Luna. Now they’re all dressed in their finest and the air is full of joyous celebration for someone else. It’s as if I never existed.I should leave and go back to bed, but I just can’t tear myself away. As I slowly make my way through the crowd, each step sends a sharp jolt of pain through my body. I almost relish the torment, which is nothing compared to the agony in my heart.All I can see is Soren and Cerelia, standing hand in hand and gazing at each other with adoration. The way he looked at me until I opened my eyes and my world imploded.We grew up together. Training side by side. Sharing our hopes and ambitions. I knew him better than anyone and now he’s making another woman his Luna. It’s a betrayal of everything we shared. A man’s voice brings me out of my reverie. “Well, w

(Hilda)My first instinct is to try and fight them off, but my muscles are far too weak after a year of inactivity. The warriors’ grips are like iron and my attempts to struggle are futile.As some of them begin to recognize me as the former Beta of this pack, a warrior who took out many of their comrades, hatred and the thirst for vengeance flare in their eyes. They’re no longer simply following orders, they really want to hurt me.I hate that my eyes fill with tears as desperation claws at my heart. I don’t want to show them that I’m terrified, but panic is overwhelming me. I can’t defend myself in my current condition.Hope surges in my heart when Soren’s voice commands them to stop. The warriors hesitate, releasing their hold on me and for a brief flicker of time I think that Soren may still care about me.Cerelia is by his side, her face a mask of shock and embarrassment as her eyes flash between me and the brother. The crowd’s attention shifts from me to her, and the uncertainty

(Hilda)Damon leaves me alone in the tiny cabin for what feels like an eternity. It’s freezing and I’m hungry enough to start chewing my way through a wall.The worst torment is being alone with my thoughts. Replaying the moment of waking up and Soren’s cold expression when he handed me to Damon like a spoil of war, over and over in my mind.I’m so close to losing my mind completely that I’m happy when 2 of Damon’s men burst into the cabin and drag me outside, throwing me down on the cold, hard ground.Being in the fresh air is wonderful and I bask in the feeling of the freezing wind playing across my face, ruffling my hair almost affectionately.It takes me far too long to raise my gaze and find more than a dozen of Damon’s men standing around me, each of them holding a bow and arrow and looking at me excitedly.They’re planning on hunting me for sport, I realize with dawning horror. I thought Damon’s cruelty had reached its limit, but apparently not.“Go on bitch. We’re giving you a

(Hilda) As if he can sense the turmoil inside me, my rescuer opens his arms and I collapse into them, resting my head against his wide, strong chest. The moment he wraps me in a tight embrace, I shatter. Sobbing into his chest, my body is shaking with the force of my anguish.He holds me close, gently stroking my hair and whispering soothing words that I can’t hear over the deafening roar of my emotions. Tilting my head up, my eyes meet his and madness overtakes me.Without hesitation, I press my lips to his, more than half expecting him to push me away. Instead he hugs me closer. The kiss is tentative at first, as though we’re testing the waters, but need soon eclipses everything else and I kiss him harder, my hands clutching his shirt so I can pull him closer.His lips move against mine with an intensity that leaves me breathless. Hands roam my back, tracing the curve of my spine, igniting a fire within me. I moan into his mouth, the sound swallowed by his kiss. Every caress feels

(Hilda)“You’re my mate,” King Arlo repeated, blocking the door. “Your place is here by my side.”I’m not ready for this. I’ve already acted very out of character by sleeping with him after just meeting him, I can’t have found my second chance mate so soon.“No,” I say, my voice firm despite the slight tremble, “I’m not ready for this, it’s too soon after everything with Soren. And you should know that I’m my own woman, King Arlo. I don’t belong to anyone. You’re just… just a rebound.”He seems to find my objection hilarious, barking out a rumbling laugh. “Did you just call the Alpha King your rebound?” he asks with raised brows.His eyes darken as he steps closer to me. A mix of frustration and desire flashing across his features. His presence is imposing and I’m overwhelmed by more than his size. There’s an electric current which crackles between us and my instincts are encouraging me to fall into his arms.“You don’t get to decide when the bond should happen, Hilda,” he tells me, h

(Soren)It’s a cold night, but the chill I feel has nothing to do with the weather. Cerelia lies sleeping soundly beside me, but her presence doesn’t calm me the way it usually does. Guilt gnaws at me, festering like an open wound. Hilda. The mere thought of her name is a dagger to my heart, twisting deeper with every breath I take. Where is she sleeping tonight? What’s Damon done to her?I’d made my decision in a moment of desperation and confusion, convincing myself it was the right thing to do. Handing her over to Damon as though she means nothing to me anymore.Hilda had been in a coma for a year, and the mate bond had faded after only a month. I mourned her with every breath I took. When I met Cerelia, it felt like fate was giving me a second chance. Now it seems that I’m more like the villain in a fairy tale.I’m not going to be able to sleep. The image of Hilda’s eyes, filled with pain and betrayal, haunts me. I promised her everything: love, loyalty, and the title of Luna. To

ErikLunch ends far too quickly. I could sit across from Scarlett for hours, listening to the soft cadence of her voice and basking in the dulcet tones of the laughter I manage to coax from her.But all good things end, and once the bill is paid, she’s pushing back from the table, brushing invisible crumbs from her short skirt. My eyes linger a moment longer than they should. Her legs are phenomenal. They have to be really, to match the rest of her.“I’ll walk you home,” I offer, standing when she does. She gives me a smile, polite and warm, but it seems a little distracted. “Thanks, but I have some errands to run first,” she tells me. “Grocery shopping and whatnot. Very boring, but necessary.”I nod, easy and gracious. I don’t press; much as I want to tell her I’ll go and dig potatoes on a farm to spend more time with her. “Of course. Maybe another time.”She smiles, “I’d like that. I had a great time.” Her words make me feel like I’m being wrapped in sunshine and candyfloss. “Me too

ChrisThe creek’s running fast today. Snowmelt, probably. The water’s high, curling around the stones like silver fingers, loud enough to drown out everything else if I sit close enough.I crouch near the bank, arms on my knees, watching the current rush past. Cold mist clings to the air, fresh and damp, and I breathe deep.I’ve always liked water. Lakes, rain, the ocean. Anything that moves and ripples and swells. It makes me feel less jagged. Like the tension gets carried away by the current.I pick up a flat stone and whip it across the surface. It skips three times before disappearing. I pick up another. Throw it harder.Gods, I nearly told him. I was so close to spilling my secrets to dad during training. It was right there on the tip of my tongue. The truth, raw and ugly, burning behind my teeth.Part of me wanted to say it. Just… get it out. Rip it off like a bandage. Maybe he’d yell. Maybe he’d stare at me like I’d grown two heads. Maybe he’d be cool about it. As much as Scar

ScarlettI shouldn’t be this nervous. It’s just lunch. A thank-you meal for a guy who happened to be in the right place at the right time. A polite gesture. A totally casual, perfectly innocent—His arm brushes mine as we walk side by side, and my heart does a full somersault in my chest. Calm down.I lead him toward the diner Ash recommended. It’s called Tess’s, a corner place with chrome trim and red vinyl booths. Apparently they make a grilled cheese so good it’s “damn near illegal,” which sounds like something Ash would say while devouring two at once.Chris hasn’t said much since we left the shop, and neither have I. It’s not uncomfortable, though. More like a loaded silence. Tens and electric. Or maybe that’s just me, wound up and over thinking everything.I’ve been trying to convince myself that I remembered him wrong. That maybe he wasn’t quite so striking. That the adrenaline and neon lights and chaos of my arrival painted him in false gold.But no. He’s even more beautiful t

ErikThe scent of herbs and incense clings to everything in the shop, grounding and familiar. I’ve always liked it here. It’s quiet, ordered and purposeful. A place where nothing happens by accident. Unlike home where it’s always noisy chaos.I rest my hands on the counter and watch my mother bundle dried fennel into neat little packets. She does it without looking, eyes on me, brow drawn in that way she gets when she’s trying to solve a puzzle that won’t quite fit.“She’s the one,” I tell her again, breaking the silence. She keeps staring at me. “You’re sure?” I nod once. “Scarlett’s the one from the prophecy. There’s no doubt in my mind.”Mother ties off the bundle, her fingers deft and calm. But her voice isn’t. “And you let her get away?” I sigh, “It would have made her suspicious if I tried to lure her inside and get her to stay.”She scoffs, tucking the fennel into a drawer beneath the counter. “You think she’s going to just come back? That she’ll stroll in here, ready to be wha

ArloThe house is too quiet.It’s only been three days since Scarlett left for Raventon, and already I find myself listening for her voice at every turn.I keep expecting to hear her humming in the kitchen, arguing with Chris about something stupid, or bursting into a room halfway through someone else's conversation with a completely unasked for opinion.She’s a storm wrapped in sunshine, and without her here, everything feels a little duller. A little emptier.Chris has been quieter too. Withdrawn. I’ve noticed it, and so has Hilda, though she hasn’t said anything outright. I see the thoughtful way she watches him sometimes.I don’t push right away. I know our son well enough to know when he’s holding something back, but I also know forcing it won’t help.Which is why I suggested he join me for a sparring session this morning. It’s less formal than sitting down and talking. Maybe it’ll be easier for him to open up here.He’s standing across from me in the ring, warmed-up and ready. H

Scarlett“Okay, you have to tell me more about Wolfridge. I thought I was pretty well travelled, but I’ve never heard of it,” Erik says.Now that my brain is working a bit more reliably, I offer him a place name he’ll recognize. “It’s near Wanoon,” I tell him as we navigate a quieter stretch of street, the earlier bustle fading behind us. “But much smaller. Barely a village. This is my first time in Raventon.”Erik whistles low. “That’s a hell of a change. How’re you liking it so far?”I glance up at the buildings crowding the skyline. “It’s loud. And kind of discombobulating. But I think I like it….” I’m not quite convinced yet that the good outweighs the bad, but it has potential.He chuckles softly. “That’s fair. It can be a lot. If you ever want a tour guide, I’ll be happy to show you around.”I glance over at him, smiling a little. “You moonlight as one?”“Only for special cases,” he says with a wink. “You can find me at the shop most days.”The shop. This seems like the perfect

ScarlettI stop walking when the buildings continue to be unfamiliar. For a second, I just stand there, in the middle of the sidewalk, surrounded by the clatter of footsteps and the hum of Raventon life.The map Ash gave me is still folded in my back pocket, but when I pull it out and study it again, none of the street names around me match. There’s no “Silvertail Books” or “Ollie’s Curry House” on this hand-drawn paper, only smudged arrows and cocky annotations like “Best bakery. Tell Rita Ash sent you. She’ll give you extra cinnamon rolls.”None of that helps me now.I spin slowly in place, hoping something, anything, will look familiar, but it doesn’t.I take a deep breath. Don’t panic. This is fine. You’re fine. Just lost in a city full of strangers. It’s not even a big deal.I square my shoulders and turn around, prepared to backtrack and maybe find someone who looks like they won’t try to sell me drugs or show me a “secret bar” in their basement. I’ve had enough of men with ulte

ScarlettRaventon is louder than I expected.I stop in the middle of the crowded sidewalk, blinking as the chaos presses in on all sides. Cars honk, music blares from open doors, voices rise and fall in a constant, unrelenting buzz.My head spins from the non-stop onslaught of stimuli. I pull Ash’s hand-drawn map from my bag and squint at it, trying to orient myself. He wasn’t kidding when he said this part of town was always busy.The map is good, extremely detailed with landmarks carefully noted, but none of that changes the fact that I feel like a hay bale dropped in the middle of a tornado.A woman passing by catches my confused look and smiles. “You lost, sweetheart?”“Kind of,” I admit. “I’m looking for Calder Street?” She gestures behind me. “Take the next right and go straight for two blocks. You’ll see it.”“Thank you!” I tuck the map away and head off in the direction she pointed. I only make it another block before I stop again, turning in a slow circle. None of the signs m
