I wake up, and Erica’s side of the tent is already empty.

That’s not new. My daughter has hardly slept since Alaric vanished. Between her visions showing her bits of what might happen and the guilt she carries for “not seeing” the attack coming, she’s been pushing herself until she drops.

She should be thinking about her first crush or normal pack drama, not carrying the whole kingdom’s future on her

  • Returning in Reverse After Betrayal   Chapter 206 One Step at a Time

    I could still turn back.Lock the door again.Return to bed and let the gray reclaim me.I need you to be there when I get back.Alaric’s voice—real or imagined—whispers through my memory.I unlock the door.Turn the handle.Step out into the corridor.Erica is there.Of course she is.Slumped against the wall across from my door, asleep while sitting up.Her face is swollen from crying.Dark circles shadow her eyes.My daughter.Who lost her sight saving everyone.Who has been sitting outside my door for three days, begging me to acknowledge she exists.Guilt crashes through me.I ha

  • Returning in Reverse After Betrayal   Chapter 205 The Blanket That No Longer Smells Like Him

    The blanket does not smell like him anymore.I know this in my head—three days of holding it, breathing against the fabric, my scent slowly replacing his. Milk and honey fading into something else.Something that is not my son.But I keep it pressed to my face anyway.It is all I have left.Outside my door, Erica is crying again.She has been there for hours. Maybe days.Time moves strangely in this room, pooling in corners like water, refusing to flow properly.“Mom, please,” her voice cracks through the wood. Young. So young. My daughter is sixteen, and she sounds like a child begging for comfort I cannot give. “Mom, just say something. Anything. I need to know you are alive in there.”I am alive.Technically.My heart beats. My lungs draw air. Blood moves through veins, sustaining biological processes that seem increasingly pointless.But alive?No.I think I died in the Black Real

  • Returning in Reverse After Betrayal   Chapter 204 Empty Refuge

    “There,” Giga pointed ahead. “I see it.”The refuge.Stone walls built into the side of a rocky outcrop, just as I remembered. Light glowed from within—warm, real light that cut through the Black Realm’s constant gloom.I did not wait for the others.I urged my horse faster, ignoring Kael’s shout to slow down.The curse pulled harder, sensing my desperation, but I did not care.Could not care about anything except reaching that light.Reaching Alaric.I dismounted before my horse fully stopped, stumbling on legs that had gone half-numb from the curse’s touch. The refuge door stood open—just a crack, as if someone had left rushing.“Alaric?” I called, pushing through the door. “Alaric, it is Mom! I am her

  • Returning in Reverse After Betrayal   Chapter 203 The Fragile Count

    Week three started with something that felt almost like hope.Not the bright, burning hope I had before the war wore us all down.This was quieter. More fragile.It came from watching four hundred and thirty-seven wolves choose to stay when they could have run.From seeing them train together, eat together, and live together, without that tired drag at every step, like they were hauling the weight of their doubts.They were trying.That had to mean something.At dawn, I stood at the training field, watching Thorne run the defensive drills.The air still carried winter’s bite, cold enough to see your breath.My fingers, gripping the wooden rail, were numb. But I did not move.Every minute I stood here, watching the pack get ready for a fight that might kill them all, was a minute I was not thinking about the other timeline.The one where, in seven days, I would see my son again.“You are going to freeze out here.

  • Returning in Reverse After Betrayal   Chapter 202 Cracks I Can't Hide

    “I’m sure.”My voice stayed steady. Controlled.“I need some time alone.”“Alright. But Sophia, if you need to talk, I’m here.”“I know. Thank you.”Her footsteps faded down the hall.I waited until the sound disappeared completely, then let my head fall into my hands.Four more weeks.I could do this. I had to. For Alaric. For the kingdom. For every wolf who had chosen to stay and fight.I just was not sure what it would cost me.That night I lay beside Kael and stared at the ceiling.“You are not sleeping,” he said quietly.“Neither are you.”“I am worried about you.” He rolled onto his side

  • Returning in Reverse After Betrayal   Chapter 201 The Brave little boy

    Three days later, Black River was still recovering when Aldric appeared.“You did well,” he said, materializing in my temporary office. Our old command center had burned in the fire.“We survived,” I said tiredly. “I’m not sure if that counts as doing well.”“You did more than survive. You showed Seraphine something she had not seen in decades—real unified resistance. Not forced by magic or oaths, but chosen freely by hundreds of wolves.”He looked at me seriously.“That terrifies her more than any army could.”“She did not look terrified,” I said. “She looked angry.”“Anger is just fear with teeth,” Aldric replied. “She is afraid of what you are building. Afraid it might actually work. Afraid she might ha

  • Returning in Reverse After Betrayal   Chapter 32 What the Tear Really Wants

    The storm had not yet broken, but I could feel it gathering behind my ribs, tightening like a fist.The Moon’s Tear was awake again, truly awake, and this time it didn’t feel like a blessing.It felt like someone else’s pulse, someone else’s breath, someone e

  • Returning in Reverse After Betrayal   Chapter 33 The Echo of a Goddess

    I stood, no, floated, in a place that was neither light nor darkness.A realm between breaths, between heartbeats, between worlds.Colors I didn’t recognize shimmered around me, shifting like liquid moonlight. The air tasted cold and old, like the first snowfall of creation.

    The chamber was beautiful beyond words.The walls were covered in intricate carvings—wolves running, fighting, howling at the moon. Veins of moonstone ran through the rock like glowing rivers, pulsing with soft blue light that seemed to breathe.And in the center, on a pedestal of

    "The Tear," I said."Here." I pressed my hand against my chest.I felt it. Inside me.No longer a separate object.It had merged with my essence completely. Become part of me at a cellular level.And I could feel its power. Hello, I thought about it.It didn't answer in words. But I felt its ackno
