LOGINNatashaThe second the floor collapsed beneath Alan’s father, Alan shoved past everybody without even thinking about the danger around him while panic spread across his face so fast that it honestly terrified me more than the collapse itself because I had never seen him look that helpless before.“Dad!” he shouted loudly into the darkness below us while his voice echoed through the collapsing chamber strongly enough to make even the wolves nearby go completely still for a moment.Then Alan started running straight toward the massive hole tearing open across the floor before anybody could stop him properly.“Alan wait!” I yelled while grabbing his arm barely in time before another huge section of concrete broke apart and crashed heavily into the darkness beneath us with enough force to shake the entire chamber again.Heat rushed upward from somewhere deep below while twisted metal groaned loudly beneath the collapsing structure and smoke continued pouring through the air thick enough t
AlanThe second my father started running toward us, every thought inside my head completely shattered apart while my body froze where I stood because no matter how badly I tried to process what I had just heard, none of it felt real anymore. My father was dead, that was what I had been told my entire life.That was what everybody believed but the massive black wolf charging straight toward us carried the same golden eyes I saw every morning in the mirror and somehow deep inside me, beneath all the fear and confusion tearing through my chest, I already knew the truth before anybody else could say another word.“Alan move!” Natasha screamed.Her voice finally snapped me out of it just as the wolf reached us.The stranger grabbed Natasha and yanked her backward while I barely managed to dodge sideways before my father crashed into the ground where I had been standing seconds earlier. The impact shook the floor beneath us violently and broken concrete scattered across the chamber.The Al
NatashaThe second those glowing eyes opened inside the darkness near the containment tanks, every sound inside the chamber seemed to disappear completely while fear crawled slowly through my chest so hard that I could barely breathe properly anymore.The thing standing there was bigger than the Alpha.At first I could only make out its outline beneath the flashing red lights while smoke drifted heavily around its body and broken glass cracked beneath its slow movements. Then it stepped forward slightly and my stomach twisted painfully at the sight of it.Its fur was almost completely black except for long silver streaks running across its shoulders and chest while deep scars covered parts of its body like somebody had tried to tear it apart years ago. One side of its face looked damaged badly enough to expose pieces of skin beneath the fur and its glowing eyes burned brighter than every wolf I had seen tonight.Even the Alpha had gone completely still. Matt slowly backed toward me wh
AlanThe heavy footsteps coming from deep inside the tunnel echoed slowly through the collapsing chamber while every wolf around us became completely alert again and the low growls spreading through the darkness carried so much tension that even Matt stopped breathing loudly beside me.Dust kept falling from the damaged ceiling above us while sparks burst from broken wires near the containment tanks and through all the noise surrounding us, those footsteps continued moving closer at a steady pace like whoever was coming already knew nobody here could stop him anymore.The Alpha slowly straightened its massive body while its glowing eyes narrowed toward the darkness ahead. The stranger beside us looked just as tense now despite the blood covering most of his chest and shoulder.Natasha tightened her grip around my arm while speaking softly beside me.“Alan, why does everybody suddenly look terrified again?”Before I could answer, the footsteps finally stopped.For a few long seconds no
NatashaThe growls coming from the darkness behind the containment tanks did not sound normal at all and the second they echoed through the chamber every single hair across my body rose painfully while cold fear crawled down my spine in a way I had never experienced before in my entire life.Even the Alpha reacted. That alone terrified me more than anything else because ever since this nightmare started, that creature had looked unstoppable no matter what happened around it and yet now it had gone completely still while staring toward the hallway as though something far worse than us was coming through the darkness.The flashing red lights above us kept flickering wildly across the chamber walls while smoke drifted heavily through the air and the alarms continued screaming without pause, making the entire place feel like it was seconds away from falling apart completely.Alan tightened his grip around my arm while breathing hard beside me and even through the fear surrounding us I cou
AlanThe second I saw the stranger rushing toward the Alpha with the silver blade raised high above his head, I already knew he was too late. The Alpha sensed him at the very last moment.Its glowing eyes snapped away from Natasha instantly while its grip around my throat tightened so hard that pain exploded through my neck and chest at once. Before the stranger could drive the blade down, the creature spun violently and slammed its arm outward with terrifying force.The stranger never even reached it.He flew sideways across the chamber like he weighed nothing before crashing directly into the elevator wall hard enough to leave another deep dent in the steel. The silver blade slipped from his hand again and skidded loudly across the floor beneath flashing red lights.Natasha screamed my name while the Alpha still held me suspended above the ground like I was nothing more than a rag doll in its grip.My lungs are burning badly now. I clawed at its arm while trying to breathe but the c
AlanThe moment the name left my guard’s mouth, every muscle in my body went rigid. For a second, I thought I had heard wrong but the look on his face told me I hadn’t.Rage rose inside me so fast it felt like fire tearing through my veins. My wolf stirred violently under my skin, restless and hung
NatashaI knew why Raymond called Alan. There was something or someone they needed to attend to and I was more than convinced that it was a rogue simply because of everything that was going on in that moment. Alan was vengeful when he wanted to be, at least I had seen that in him in the little time
AlanWalking into Zephyr’s pack, a sense of deja vu hit me all over again because this was the same way I had felt the last time I had been here. I had come here the other day to fight him because I thought he had forcefully taken Natasha from me but now, I could see very well that she had come her
Natasha“Where have you been? The Alpha has been looking everywhere for you.” I looked up from my phone, watching as Sophia hurried towards me, a frantic look on her face. Whatever it was, it had to be disturbing because Sophia was never easily rattled like this. My heartrate spiked because I didn
