Alice ducked under a low-hanging branch, her boots crunching over fallen leaves as she led the group deeper into the forest. The dense woods were quiet aside from the sounds of nature: birds chirping in the trees, the occasional scurrying of small animals through the underbrush, and the steady rhythm of their footsteps. Tyler’s family followed closely behind, backpacks snug, eyes sharp.

"Where exactly are we going again?" Tyler asked, readjusting his pack. Alice glanced back at him. “We’re tracking a healer I once knew. Her name’s Malina. She was a little older than me when we met, but if she’s still alive, she might be living in a safe zone a few miles from here.” “Why do they live this way?” he asked, brushing a spiderweb from his sleeve. “Out here? Hiding?”

Alice sighed, stepping over a fallen log. “Because they were hunted, Tyler. For decades. People feared what they didn’t understand. Gifted wolves were kidnapped, tested on, even killed. Some had their children taken from them. F

    Janet’s POVI pulled my go bag from under the seat and yanked out the makeup remover. The glitter from the fake lashes and shimmer eyeshadow smeared across my cheeks as I wiped my face clean. I reached up and tugged the ridiculous pigtails loose, silver tinsel falling like confetti to the floor of the car. "See if I ever volunteer for undercover again," I muttered, rolling my eyes.Every few minutes I turned in my seat to glance at Jerica’s unconscious form, still slumped awkwardly in the back seat. And of course he would be driving — Brad, Brody’s idiot younger brother, who was clearly one bad idea away from getting us all caught. He whistled tunelessly while tapping the steering wheel, like we weren’t hauling a kidnapped werewolf in a tutu and fishnets across state lines in the next couple of hours.Ten minutes later, we pulled into a long-abandoned warehouse lot. The building was unmarked and weather-beaten, but it had one key feature: a private garage with a hidden studio apartmen

    Trixie’s heart pounded like a war drum as she stood in Trevor’s office. Her fingers trembled, clutching her phone even though she hadn’t received a single new message. Jerica wasn’t answering. Janet wasn’t answering. Her thoughts raced, dizzying and heavy with panic. “She wouldn’t just leave,” Trixie whispered, more to herself than to Trevor. “She would’ve told me. Told someone.”Trevor paced behind his desk, already issuing orders over the pack mind-link. The tone in his voice was deadly calm, but the tension in his jaw betrayed him. “Jake’s out tracking. Security is sweeping the club perimeter again. We’ve got people moving to the road checkpoints. A kitchen worker saw them leave through the kitchen.”Trixie pressed her palms to the cool wood of his desk and tried to steady her breathing. “We have to tell Eric and Melissa. Jerica’s parents need to know. What if it’s the hunters? What if they’re back?” Trevor nodded grimly. “It’s either them… or rogues. But this feels organized. Clea

    The club was already pulsing with music and lights, the music was loud and bass heavy, and the dance floor was already packed. But Trevor waved over a bouncer, and they were escorted past the line and into the roped-off VIP section on the second level. From up there, they had a perfect view of the whole club dancers, costumes, lights spinning like a kaleidoscope. Moments later, a server approached dressed as a sexy nurse, complete with a short red-and-white dress, thigh-high stockings, and a clipboard for their orders. “Shots or cocktails to start?” she asked with a wink. The girls ordered fruity mixed drinks while the guys opted for bourbon or beer. As the server sauntered away, the group settled into plush lounge seating."Okay, everyone photos before we get sweaty!" Abby declared, already pulling out her phone. The girls grouped together with huge smiles, arms around each other. Jerica snagged Jake for a sweet couples shot, and then Abby handed the phone off to Joe to take one of

    TrixieThe classroom buzzed faintly with chatter and the clack of pens against desks, but Trixie was somewhere else. Her elbow rested on her textbook, her cheek pressed into her hand, as she stared out the window. Alice had left earlier that week, along with Tyler and his parents, on a mission she couldn’t talk about publicly. Even though it was still new and strange to think of Alice as a warrior, she trusted her. Alice had a purpose now—to find others like Trixie. Gifted wolves scattered across territories, hidden from the world, waiting for a chance to be part of something again. Part of this pack.Trixie’s stomach churned softly. She didn’t doubt Alice’s ability to make contact. But what came after? What if they came back? What if they wanted to stay? That part would be on her. The future of the pack, the leadership, the responsibility—Trevor hadn’t officially said it, but she could feel it pressing in, surrounding her like the warm but heavy arms of fate.The bell rang, snapping

    Dinner had just finished, the dining hall slowly emptying as laughter and chatter faded into the gentle hush of evening. Alice placed her napkin beside her plate and caught Trevor’s eye across the table. With the briefest nod, she motioned toward the hallway. Trevor rose without a word, following her with the casual air of a simple stroll, though both of them knew this wasn’t just a casual chat.They walked in silence until they reached his office. Once inside, Trevor closed the door behind them and motioned for her to sit. "You’ve picked your team," he said. Alice nodded, her tone steady. "Yes. I’ve given it a lot of thought." Trevor took a seat behind his desk, leaning forward with interest. "Who?" "Tyler, Sheila, and Burke." Trevor blinked. "All one family."Alice allowed a small smile. "I know it seems odd, but it’s also... practical. They trust each other completely. Their loyalty is bound by blood, not just pack. That kind of trust is hard to manufacture. Less likely to falter u
