June's hands hovered above Daniel's broken body, magic swirling at her fingertips. Her lips pressed into a hard line as she tried spell after spell. The lights flickered, danced—and fizzled out, but nothing else was happening. She felt drained and she felt like giving up.

With a frustrated grunt, June finally sat back on her heels. She wiped the sweat from her brow and looked at them all.

"I can't summon Opal," she said heavily. "Her magic... it's too strong. It's like trying to leash a hurricane with a fishing net. She'll feel the attempt and shake it off."

A heavy silence fell over the room.

"The only way to get her here is," June added. "To go to her and convince her to come to us. The only thing I know is she lives on Mystic Mountain."

Ariel tightened her arms around herself, staring down at Daniel, whose pitiful, animalistic whimpers were growing weaker by the second.

"Mystic Mountain..." Jessica murmured, exchanging a worried glance with Kanyon.

DJ's jaw tightened. "Then we go.

    "HE SAID WHAT?" Alpha Nolan's furious roar echoed through the stone hall, shaking the walls and startling the staff passing by outside.Cameron didn't flinch, though even he felt the intensity radiating off the Alpha like a storm ready to split the sky. "He said they'll be staying a few more days... at Mystic Mountain," he repeated calmly, though his jaw was tight."Mystic Mountain?" Nolan growled. "That boy is a spoiled little brat. If I didn't have half the damn pack to reorganize, I would run up there myself and drag him back by his ears!"He slammed his palm down on the table, making the tea set rattle."Are they at least safe?" Luna Peaches asked, her voice soft and steady, though the worry in her eyes betrayed her."Yes, Luna," Cameron nodded respectfully. "They seem to be in good hands." He didn't know whether to tell them that the boy was with his grandfather and uncle. Then again, Cameron thought it wasn't his place to say anything. Even DJ, Falcon, and Theo kept their mouth

    "Careful! Careful!" Nigel Senior was hovering over Opal as she made the final touches to her potion."Would you back off, old man?" Opal scoffed. "You're getting on my nerves."Nigel Senior grabbed his mate gently by the waist, his voice softening. "I'm just happy you're alive and well. I don't know what I'd do without you."Cameron cleared his throat. "Excuse me," he said, stepping forward. The old couple quickly pulled apart, slightly sheepish."What is it, Cameron?" Opal asked, her tone neutral but eyes curious."I'm just wondering if the potion is done yet. We wanted to beat the darkness and get back to the Whistling Cave before sundown.""I see. I just need to do one more thing," she replied. As if on cue, DJ walked in at that very moment just in time to see Opal spit directly into the mixture.There was a soft poof, and the potion transformed from green to a glowing blue, emitting a faint shimmer."My father has to drink that?" DJ asked, his eyebrows lifting in disbelief."If he

    "My prince," Theodore dropped to his knees, his voice trembling with awe. "It's an honor to meet you. I can't believe I met your father, and now... I'm meeting you."Lazarus blinked, clearly surprised. "You met my father?""Yes," Theo nodded quickly. "We stopped at the Vanderwolf mansion for the Alpha's help in finding Mystic Mountain, and he showed up. He was looking for you. He said you took something that belonged to your stepmother."Lazarus growled low in his throat, a sharp sound that sent shivers down everyone's spine. "So he knows I took the Book of the Gods... Damn him. Did he say anything else?""Not really," Theodore answered. "Only that you left with werewolves and a human.""So that means the Alpha knows we're traveling with a bloodsucker," said a broad-shouldered young man from the far corner of the room. His voice was gruff, but there was a spark of mischief in his eyes. "I'm Valko, the son of the Beta from the Howling Cliffs pack. This here is my sister, Velma, and our

    After hours of hiking through the magical forest, the group finally reached the top of Mystic Mountain, and they were worn out. Their bodies ached, their stomachs growled, and even the adrenaline that had fueled their journey so far was starting to wear thin. The once-glowing candy skies had darkened into deep violet. The enchanted beauty around them, while still mesmerizing, was now cloaked in shadow.Every step felt heavier."Remind me again why we didn't pack snacks," Falcon groaned, dragging his feet. "I'm starving.""Didn't you eat enough chocolate dirt and candy clouds?" Theo snapped."I don't think all that forest junk food counts," Falcon muttered."Look," Cameron said suddenly, lifting his arm and pointing ahead. "There's a cabin up ahead.""That must be Opal's place," DJ said, relief evident in his voice. “It’s older than I expected.” "Who cares?" Falcon sighed dramatically. "I just wanna kick these boots off. I really need a foot rub."The group moved forward, but their pa

    "So... how did she taste?" Cameron asked, breaking the silence with a sly grin.DJ shot him a look. "Please. Don't start.""Come on," Cam smirked, nudging his shoulder. "We're all friends here."DJ groaned. "Honestly? Salty," he muttered, shaking his head.Falcon burst out laughing. "She tasted exactly how she acts. Salty.”Even Theodore cracked a grin, his normally serious expression softening. Their laughter echoed off the glistening cave walls as they trekked forward, still damp from their dive through the mermaid's secret entrance.Mishell's kiss had unlocked a secret door under the cave that pulled them into the depths when they plunged in. They swam for barely a minute before they emerged inside what felt like the belly of the world. The cave was warm, thick with a soft golden mist that clung to their skin like silk.Everything was eerily silent. No echoes. No dripping water. Just... warmth."Something smells sweet," Theo said suddenly, his vampire senses flaring.DJ sniffed the

    They woke just before sunrise, the horizon still wearing a blanket of fog. With the wind nipping at their faces and clouds looming above like a warning, Cameron, DJ, Falcon, and Theodore took off at full speed, tearing across the rugged terrain toward their next destination... The Whistling Cave.The world around them was eerie and quiet, except for the occasional distant crackle of thunder. The air tasted like sea salt and static. There was definitely a storm coming.After racing for nearly an hour, they skidded to a halt just shy of a steep cliff. The sound hit them first, an echo so deafening, it vibrated their skulls. They clutched at their ears as the unnatural screeching reverberated from below."The cave is whistling alright," Cameron said, gulping hard as his eyes watered from the noise.Theo crept to the cliff's edge, his vampiric senses zeroing in on a strange vibration. He motioned for the others. Below, nestled into the jagged cliffs like the gaping mouth of a sea monster,
