The world exploded into color and sound and smell. Everything I thought I knew was wrong. I had been living half blind my entire life. Now I could see emotions hanging in the air like ribbons.

Theodora's POVThe world exploded into color and sound and smell. Everything I thought I knew was wrong. I had been living half blind my entire life. Now I could see emotions hanging in the air like ribbons. Fear was gray. Love was gold. Anger burned red. Nate's love for me wrapped around us both like a warm blanket. I could smell it. Taste it. Feel it on my tongue.My ears picked up sounds from three floors above. Footsteps. Whispered conversations. Someone's stomach is growling. A faucet dripping in a bathroom I would never find as a human. The cacophony should have been overwhelming. Instead, it felt right. Natural. Like my brain was designed to process this much information.I tried to tell Nate how incredible everything was. Opened my mouth. A whine came out. High pitched. Frustrated. Not words. Not even close. I tried again. Concentrated harder. Another whine. Damn it. This body did not have vocal cor

Nate's POVDora's screams tore through me like knives. Her body convulsed on the stone floor. Silver light poured from her eyes and mouth like she was burning from the inside. I lunged forward. Had to reach her. Had to make it stop. Elder Moira caught my arm. Her grip was iron."Let me go. She is dying.""She is transforming. If you interrupt now you will kill her. The process must be completed.""Look at her. She is in agony.""Yes. And she will survive it. Or she will not. But interfering guarantees failure. Trust the protocol. Trust her."Trust felt impossible when every instinct screamed to protect. The bond between us pulsed with her pain. I felt every moment of it. Every nerve ending is on fire. Every bone is breaking and reforming. Every cell is changing into something new. It was destroying me. Tearing me apart. I fell to m

Theodora's POVThe training room was underground. No windows. Stone walls that absorbed sound. Cold enough that my breath fogged. Elder Moira stood across from me looking grim. She held a small vial filled with dark liquid. The accelerated training protocol. Whatever was in that vial would put me into a trance state deep enough to access parts of my mind I normally could not reach. Deep enough to confront my power directly."Once you drink this there is no stopping the process. You will be under for hours. Maybe longer. Your body will go through changes. Physical. Mental. Spiritual. It will hurt. A lot. But you cannot wake up early. If you try to surface before the protocol is complete your mind could shatter. Do you understand?""I understand.""Are you certain you want to do this? There is still time to back out. Choose a slower safer path.""There i

Nate's POVThe Council chamber erupted into chaos. Voices overlapped. Arguments bounced off stone walls. Everyone had an opinion on what to do about Richard and Vincent escaping. Most of those opinions were useless. Magistrate Thorne stood at the head of the table looking smug despite the disaster. Like he had planned this somehow. Like the escape proved his point about how dangerous the situation had become."Order. We need order." His voice cut through the noise. "Richard Montgomery and Vincent Steele are loose. They know the compound's location. They know Miss Steele's capabilities. We must assume they are planning another attack. A more organized one. We have three days until the full moon. Three days to prepare.""Prepare for what?" I could not keep quiet anymore. "You heard what Vincent said. The ritual does not need Dora's consent. Just her presence. That means they will come for her.

Theodora's POVWhite ceiling tiles. Sterile smell. Steady beep of machines. I woke in the medical wing and knew immediately that something was wrong. Not physically. My body felt fine. Rested. The exhaustion from unleashing my power was gone. But there was a weight around my neck that had not been there before. Heavier than the first collar. More substantial. I lifted my hand to touch it and felt intricate metalwork. Cold metal that seemed to pulse with its own energy.Nate was asleep in a chair beside my bed. His head tilted at an angle that would give him a horrible neck ache when he woke. His injuries were healed. Thank god. The broken ribs. The fractured jaw. All of it mended while I was unconscious. He looked peaceful. Younger somehow. Like the boy I fell in love with before everything got complicated. Before mates and councils and prophecies. I wanted to reach out and touch his face but I did not want to wak

Nate's POVPain drowned everything else. My ribs screamed with each breath. My jaw throbbed where Richard broke it. Blood filled my mouth. But none of that mattered because I could feel Dora through the bond. Feel her teetering on the edge of something dark. Something she could not come back from. I had to reach her. Had to pull her back before she crossed that line.My shift reversed. Bones cracked as they reformed. Fur receded. The process hurt worse than it should have because of the injuries. Every transformation pulled at broken places. Tore at damaged tissue. I gasped when I finally became human again. Naked. Bleeding. Barely able to stand. But I could speak now and that was what mattered."Dora."My voice came out rough. Damaged. But she heard it. I saw her flinch. Saw the silver light in her hand flicker. She was listening. Still there. Still my Dora
