Sophia’s POV

As I gradually regain consciousness, my eyelids flutter open, revealing the emptiness of the hospital room around me. I struggle to sit up, feeling the soreness in my body from the recent labour and the lingering effects of fainting earlier.

There is no one beside me, and it makes my heart clench and beat faster for some reason. Confusion and a hollow feeling filled my chest as I sat up, desperately searching for any trace of Alexander.

But he or the children are nowhere to be seen, and the realization makes me weak in the knees. A surge of panic gripped me, and I called out to the nurse who entered the room.

“You’re awake,” she exclaims. “It’s been a day since you fell asleep. You must have been really exhausted.”

“A day?” I ask, fully surprised. It is actually uncommon to fall asleep for a whole day just due to exhaustion, but I guess I must have been so tired that I didn’t want to wake up.

It also made me a little relieved, considering the disappearance of Alexa

    Sophia’s POVAfter the tense negotiations and the binding blood covenant, we finally returned to the safety and comfort of our mansion. The weight of the day's events still hung heavily in the air, but there was also a sense of relief and accomplishment that filled our hearts. Peace between humans and werewolves was no longer just a distant dream; it was becoming a reality.As we stepped through the door, Alexander pulled me into a warm embrace. His worry for me was evident in his eyes, but he couldn't hide the joy and pride that also shone there. I felt his strong arms wrap around me, and I buried my face in his chest, finding solace in his presence."I was so worried about you, Sophia," he whispered into my hair, his voice tinged with emotion. "You're the bravest person I know."I looked up at him, touched by his words, and managed a weak smile. "It was a necessary sacrifice, Alexander. I believe in what we're doing, and I'm willing to do whatever it takes for peace."His lips met m

    Sophia’s POVThe authoritative Wolf Hunters exchanged uncertain glances, clearly taken aback by my proposal. They had never encountered such a gesture of commitment before.One of them, a stern-looking man, finally spoke. "This is a bold offer, Luna, but how can we be sure that this covenant will hold? A hundred years ago, a human girl made a similar covenant, and peace was shattered. Her soul was offered to the Moon Goddess, and yet, it didn't prevent the war."I took a deep breath, understanding the weight of history behind his words. "I believe that this time is different. Alexander, Tyler, Jake, and I, we all trust each other completely. We are willing to do everything in our power to prevent the Moon Goddess from consuming my soul. I am confident that we can make this covenant hold."Alexander's expression was conflicted as he looked at me, "Sophia, I can't bear the thought of you making such a sacrifice. There must be another way."Tyler and Jake, who had been silent until now,

It had been a week since Alexander had recovered from his injuries, and now we stood on the precipice of a pivotal moment in history. The mission was clear: to negotiate peace between humans and werewolves after centuries of conflict. It was a daunting task, but one that I believed in with all my heart.As Alexander and Ethan led the way, I couldn't help but feel a surge of gratitude towards them.

Eyes followed us, filled with suspicion

    Sophia’s POVThe three days of waiting had been torturous. Each passing hour had only deepened my worry and anxiety. I had called secretary Candace, repeatedly, hoping for any news about Alexander, but the repeated responses of "no news yet" had done little to ease my concern.Daniel and Daisy had sensed the heaviness in the air and had been keeping me company in the living room. Daisy, with her innocent eyes and heart full of love for her father, was the first to voice her concern. "Mom, where's Daddy? Why hasn't he come back yet?"I tried to put on a brave face, forcing a reassuring smile. "Don't worry, sweetie," I said, my voice soft and comforting. "Daddy will be back soon. Maybe he's just been delayed by something. He'll be home before you know it."Daniel, ever the protector and the older sibling, chimed in with his own attempt at reassurance. "Yeah, Daisy, Mom's right. Dad's probably on his way back now. There's nothing to worry about."Daisy seemed to take comfort in her broth

    Sophia’s POV The next morning, I woke up with a sense of dread that had settled deep within me. The events of the previous day, the bombing of the Wolf Hunter Organization's headquarters, and the uncertainty of Alexander's safety weighed heavily on my mind. I reached for my phone, my heart pounding in my chest, hoping for a message or some news that would ease my worry. But as I checked my phone, there was nothing—no missed calls, no messages, no updates. I knew that Alexander was involved in a dangerous mission, and I couldn't bring myself to call him and potentially jeopardize his safety. Instead, I decided to call Tyler, hoping that he might have some information. As I dialed Tyler's number, my hands trembled with anticipation. The phone rang, and with each ring, my anxiety grew. Then, to my relief, Tyler answered. "Sophia," I greeted him, my voice filled with worry. "Where are you? Why haven't you been answering my calls?" Tyler's voice sounded hoarse, and I could hear exhaust

The phone rang and rang, but there was no answer. Anxiety crept in, and I redialed the number, hoping for a different outcome. Again, it went unanswered.I tried calling Jake next, praying that at least one of them would pick up and ease my growing apprehension. But the result was the same—no answer, just the cold, unfeeling silence of voicemail.With a heavy heart, I hung up and stared at my phone screen. The minutes ticked by like hours, and it seemed like time had come to a standstill. I couldn't help but worry about Tyler and Jake. They had been through so much, and now, with the Wolf Hunter Organization under attack, their lives hung in the balance.The clock on the wall read 11 o'clock in the evening, but sleep was elusive.
