With his golden eyes fixed on the figures vanishing into the distance, Rylan stood at the riverbank breathing hard.

Selene and Ethan were carried away from his grasp by the rushing waters. His claws dug into his palms as his hands clenched into fists.

The injury Selene had caused on his arm was already healing, the pain subsiding as his werewolf blood did its thing.

However, the anger and humiliation of being outmatched and outwitted were more intense than any injury.

He'd been stabbed by her. She disobeyed him. She was now slipping away.

No!

She wouldn't go very far.

He would look for her.

He'd pull her back.

And she would be sorry she ever believed she could get away from him!

Rylan's body stiffened. His ears twitched when he heard a slight sound coming up closer.

His senses were on high alert and he swirled to see what or who it was.

The air was mixed with the blood.

Ravena.

She was standing erect, her sword gleaming in the low light. Despite her wounds and the blood stre

    As the current dragged them viciously downstream, the river roared around them gulping their bodies. Breathing heavily as the waves smashed into her face. Selene struggled to keep her head above the water. Despite the cold seeping into her bones she continued to move because of the fear burning in her chest. She resisted giving in to the water. Considering all she had survived, no. Ethan swam forward, his strong strokes effortlessly slicing through the water. Over the roar of the river, he yelled. “ Keep up!” All that mattered was survival. In that dark, frigid prison, she had believed she would perish. Ravena then arrived though. Destinies were cruelly twisted by life. She will have to wait to find out why Ravena, of all people,, would risk everything to save her. Who would have thought that the same woman who attacked her pack would do this? She concentrated on staying afloat as the river pull lessened. She kicked herself one last time in desperation and moved forward.Eth

    Her chest was the precise target of the arrow. She was unable to run or move as she desired. Her body resisted orders. Ethan was fighting for his life out of the corner of her eye. He said, “ Just let the lady go.” But blood stained his mouth a deep red as it ran down his lips. “In her place, you can take… me.”With the arrow still pointed at Selene the hunter remained silent.She seemed to be his main target rather than Ethan. Selene's eyes darted around in terror as her tear-stained face was smeared with dirt. The pounding of her heart was like a school drum. And her bones arched so badly that they seemed like they would break out of their joints. Before her, the hunter maintained a firm stance and a steady grip on the bow. At the first sign of trouble, he was prepared to release the arrow. Selene hardly dared to blink. Then the air suddenly changed place. Suddenly, a howling wind roared like a raging storm. With their branches flailing wildly and their leaves swirling in

    He emerged from the shadows as a jarring sound tore through his subconscious. Rylan's eyes popped open. The noises were then detected. The sound of wolves growling. The crunch of bone was sickening. The splatter of blood hitting the ground wet. A terrible fight.When his vision cleared he saw something that made his stomach turn. Wolves engaged in vicious combat, their claws tearing through fur and their fangs digging into flesh.His tongue was coated like iron by the overpowering smell of blood.He saw her there in the midst of the chaos. Ravena. Her wolf form moved like liquid death as she battled like a demon, tearing through opponents with terrifying ease. The few who dared to resist were overwhelmed as her warriors charged ahead and pushed through the ranks. Nightfang was losing. Rylan's frustration was brewing as he clenched his jaw. He had wasted time. Not anymore.He sent a frantic mind link reaching through the haze of his mind. Tristan. Find me by following my s

    She was awakened by pain before her eyes. The dull throb swept through her skull like wildfire pounding behind her eyes. Slowly and heavily Selene's eyelids fluttered. When she finally opened her eyes the world swam around her and she could not identify the places on her body that hurt. She gasped. Her arms were bound to a thick wooden pole and painfully twisted behind her. She tugged at the bindings as panic flared in her chest but they held tight and felt rough against her skin.Where is she? Her memories were a haze with shadows and images darting through her head.Then she remembered what happened.The wind. The portal. Elder Vulcan. Ethan. She clenched her heart. Fear gripped her like a vice and she wondered if Ethan was still alive. Twisting and struggling, she attempted to move once more but the ropes only made their way deeper into her flesh. She heard voices.There was the crunch of footsteps on the ground. People started to emerge from the pack ground corners. Man

    His beta, Sab questioned cautiously, eyes darting through the foggy woods. “ Are you sure this is the right place?” He held his hand close to his blade. It doesn't feel right. Kieran took a moment to respond. Something darker shone beneath the gleam of frustration in his emerald green eyes. Anxiety. “I was instructed to come here,” he finally said in a firm voice. Sab scowled. “You can't trust Elder Vulcan. Nobody is more aware of that than you are.”Kieran halted his pacing and looked at his beta. He gave me his word. He said he would release my mother if I did my part. That's the only reason I'm here.” Sab did not seem persuaded. “It has been hours of waiting.” “I understand,” Kieran yelled. Tension broke in his voice. Something moved in the shadows and they stiffened, regaining themselves.Both men immediately whirled around their instincts as swords were drawn out. “Easy boys,” a smug-sounding voice said.

    The night air blew by.It wasn't just the wind it was the death, the grief and the pain. That hung in the air.As silence descended upon the land the moon gazed down like a chilly watchful eye.Ravena lay shattered in a cage that had been forgotten far away from the sound of campfires and pack wolves laughter.The weight of time made the old cottage groan. Like the veins of a dying body, cracks ran along the stone walls. Something once powerful was trapped by the sturdy door made of rusted iron bars. Ravena. once dreaded. Once strong, writhed in pain. Just a shadow of herself now.Thick cold chains were buried in her neck and limbs as her wolf form lay curled on the wet floor. She was breathing weakly in shaky whispers. The ground beneath her was covered in blood which smelled bad and was blackened.She had patches of matted fur that was falling out. Rot had started to appear. The pain never stopped stinging her flesh like fire ants. Next came a fresh wave, a searing burn that tor

    A heavy wind blew and the tree branches danced as they swayed to the wind. The tall trees cast long shadows.Daemon stopped in his tracks. As he tried to control his breathing his chest heaved. Dread sank into his bones as he surveyed the deserted clearing, the moist ground feeling soft under his boots. Ravena. Ethan. Luna Selene.He had followed the receding scents left behind retracing his steps a dozen times. They were now weak, dispersed, and overpowered by something else. He trembled as he tried to steady his balance. His nerves were frayed from all he witnessed.He couldn't believe that what started as a rescue mission ended up swallowing them all in grief.Which had led to a huge loss. How will the rogue pack take the news?He tried once again to mind-link for help, but a throbbing headache pierced through him, and he groaned in pain.Gripping his hair as he winced. He fell down but dragged himself up to continue walking.His throat burned with thirst and his bone arched

    Their voices were filled with surprise as the name exploded from their mouths like a spell. “Fea!”Ashton's eyes bulged seeing his sister standing right before them.A tidal wave of anger rushed through him. Why can't the damn girl listen to instructions?Fea’s silver eyes glinted with strength and mystery.Her long jet-black hair caught the wind as it cascaded past her waist like an inky waterfall while she leaned boldly on her staff. Despite a lighthearted smile, she felt purposeful energy all around her. “ I had to follow you even though you told me to stay back,” she shrugged. You need me, so come on.”With his eyes hard and his brows furrowed, Ashton strode toward her. “You were meant to remain in the hiding place and keep an eye on the pack!”Lifting her chin, Fea rolled her eyes. “Ashton, you can't give Seer instructions. And the pack is being protected by the warriors. They are capable.”His face turned red and he grabbed his sister's arm. “Leave at once! You'll put yourself

    Voices and arguments filled Ridgewood's vault room beneath the pack house that night. Secret meetings were conducted here out of prying eyes and ears. Around a round wooden table sat the leaders of Ridgewood's six clans. Which together made up the council. Tension was high and there was a noticeable unease in the air. The council had called Daemon and Ethan to the meeting, and in fact, they had demanded their presence. For almost an hour Daemon and Ethan sat and watched the council members quarrel. Accusations, demands, and threats filled the back-and-forth debate. Insults were hauled at each other.In all of this, Ethan and Daemon maintained silence. Observing the gathering under keen eyes.Ethan was getting tired of their pointless arguments and becoming more and more bored. Instead of the serious conversation he had anticipated about the pack's future and Jarred's increasing threat, they were acting like kids. At last, Ridgewood council leader Bethar slammed his hand on the t

    Ethan hurried to the balcony of the pack house for safety. He was closely followed by Fea and Daemon. The pack members were still gathered outside chanting while hurling their fists into the air. “Get us Ravena!”“Ravena or nothing!”The foundation of the pack house shook as their chants reverberated through the atmosphere. Ethan was exposed to the sun's harsh rays while standing on the balcony. There was total chaos in the scene. At the entrance to the pack house, the guards were having difficulty rebuffing angry pack members who were attempting to break in. The guards yelled. “ Stand back! Stand back!” in a voice that could hardly be heard over the noise. Ethan's anger reached a boiling point, and he balled his fists. “Enough!” He spoke loudly into the air after taking a deep breath. Immediately, the angry yelling of the crowd started to fade, their voices dying downFea was shocked when the people became calm. The impact of Ethan's voice suddenly commanded attention. As they

    As Ethan approached Daemon, his eyes were filled with worry. His tone was urgent and sharp. “ What are you talking about?” he asked. “As we speak there's unrest in the pack,” Daemon replied in a tight tone. “I noticed a group of people making their way to the pack house on the way here. They are requesting explanations for Ravana's whereabouts.”Fea took a step forward, her face solemn. “From what I understood,” she continued in a low voice. “ They're saying you killed her in order to become the Alpha of Ridgewood pack.” With the accusations bearing down on him, Ethan let out a long sigh. He tried to comprehend the chaos by closing his eyes for a while. This was not what he expected. As he opened his eyes he looked at Fea and Daemon. “Who else knows of Ravena's death?” he asked in a whisper. Feeling dread snake up on his spine.“It's just you, Ashton, Fea, Frank, and me,” Daemon said. Suddenly a flash of realization hit him. Daemon snapped his fingers as though he had just found a

    Ethan strode with a newfound strength in his step. The carefully planned out appearance of his warrior’s uniform conveyed a sense of readiness and a man who had been freed from the grip of harm. He had a commanding presence and rough lines on his face which were possibly deepened by recent hardship. A few women whose eyes lingered a bit too long showed a glimmer of admiration for him as he made his way through the busy center of the pack. But he was oblivious to all that as his mind was restless and empty, caused by deep sorrows.He should be happy for surviving the poison but Ravena's demise left him in anguish.Children ran past him, giggling and shrieking in delight as they ran to hide in different corners.It brought a familiar memory of his childhood which suddenly made a smile tug at the corners of his lips.He waved casually but warmly at an elderly farmer who was hard at work in his gardenHe was a man named Frederick whose grizzled hands drew life out of the ground itself

    Aside from the gentle crackle of the fire in the hearth, the room was silent. The room had an odd almost eerie atmosphere as shadows moved along the stone walls. Frank, Ashton, and Fea remained by Ethan's side after the healer had left. Fea was seated closest to him, her hand resting softly on his arm as though she was worried he would become unconscious again. “You should get some sleep,” Fea said in a worried-sounding voice.Ethan gave a resolute shake of his head. There was a fire in his eyes. Now a strong desire to understand even though he still appeared weak and pale. “No,” he said unpleasantly. “Tell me, What happened?”None of them was keen to speak first and they exchanged tentative glances.Finally, the silence was broken by Daemon who moved forward into the firelight. “We tried to rescue Selene,” he said with a regretful tone. “We discovered the location of her detention. But we were attacked.”Ethan just looked at him expressionless for a moment. Then, wincing from the

    Before he could even catch his breath, Rylan's eyes snapped open, and a blast of icy water struck his face. Coughing and blinking against the unexpected wetness he let out a sharp gasp. “Thanks to the goddess.” A familiar voice said. “I was starting to worry that you had passed away while you were asleep.” Rylan looked up to see his best friend and Beta, Tristan grinning. Rylan's chest flared with irritation. He snatched up his glass of wine, which was the closest object, and hurled it at Tristan without thinking. After missing, the glass shattered into a hundred tiny pieces as it crashed against the wall. Using the back of his hand to wipe his face Rylan muttered, “ You bastard. What did you do that for?” Tristan let out a loud obviously unconcerned laugh. “Dude, what's up with you? I entered your chamber. I called you but you didn’t answer. I was alarmed to see you lying there like a corpse in the bathroom. I doused you in water as a result.” Rylan let out a long sigh. He h

    As he pushed the door open, Alpha Rylan paused. Hesitating to go in. The familiar scent of Selene's perfume hit his nostrils.Sending jolts of pain that rippled through him.But this was his room. Yea, he shared it with Selene. And now she's gone, never to return.Running away won't mend his bleeding heart. He felt as though the walls themselves recalled the love that once called this place home. It felt colder and smaller now. This was the room that he had previously shared with his ex-wife and former Luna Selene, and he had avoided it for days. Pretending that the room didn't exist and immersing himself in the never-ending responsibilities of pack leadership, border combat, and quelling the escalating unrest among his people.The memories that lurked inside these four walls were easier to avoid than to face them. Something inside him, however, broke tonight, his heart.Selene's tear-stained face flashed through his mind. She kept insisting she was innocent. Was she telling the t

    Then something changed.Ethan’s breaths began to even out but it was ragged and shallow. The frightful gasps were replaced by a slow steady rhythm.Fea's heart leaped for joy. “I think he is alive! He is breathing!”Just a moment ago, he had stopped breathing, but now, it seemed he fought to stay alive.The erratic flickering of his eyelids ceased and they opened slowly and feebly. Despite being blurry and unfocused his eyes wandered the tiny space. As he observed the hazy forms surrounding him, a tiny glimmer of recognition moved through his eyes. The healer leaned over him with gentle eyes.Then he could see Fea more clearly, her face glistening with tears but glimmering with a newfound happiness. Daemon was standing close by smiling at him. Frank and Ashton were also present, their faces displaying a mix of amazement and relief. A dry parched feeling tightened around Ethan's throat. His voice couldn't come out when he tried to ask what had happened. A silent plea came out of h

    Ridgewood their pack and home in the woods was hidden by a large waterfall. They eventually arrived after a short walk. Daemon exhaled deeply. That the difficult times might be coming to an end made him happy. Fea moved forward. She pushed a spot on the stone wall as usual. They entered their pack after the wall opened. “You have to give Ashton and Frank the antidote,”Daemon said to Fea as the wall closed once more. “I will have to call the healer.”Fea nodded. Before departing she gave Daemon a hug. She was beginning to like him. Ever since they embarked on the journey to get the antidote, she had grown attached to him. As Daemon approached the healer's home she watched him. Some children screamed with joy as they ran past her. Even though it was nighttime a few members of their pack remained awake. Fea moved at a fast pace. Wondering if Ethan was still alive made her heart race. The antidote was securely stored in her clothing. It was gently pressed up against her skin. S
