Dominicus

Those were not the eyes of a child.

They’re deep. Eerie. The kind of deep you only see in survivors. The kind that shouldn’t belong to someone with soft hands and thin shoulders. That shouldn’t belong on the face of a thirteen-year-old girl.

I know those eyes. I’ve seen them countless times.

Those are the eyes of someone who has seen and done things. Of someone who has seen the darkest this world has to offer and has given back just as much.

Eleanor finally turns to me, her expression carved from stone.

“We’re going to have to hold off on doing anything with that child,” she says quietly. “Not until I get answers.”

I stare at her, jaw tight. “You saw it too.”

She nods once. “That girl is not normal. And until we know exactly why—we can’t risk it. Time is tight, yes, but it would be worse to bring someone unstable into the fold. Especially someone with power like that.”

I exhale slowly. My agreement weighs heavy in my chest. “Yeah. I agree.”

I pause, watch

    Dominicus “And everything the old Emerald did will have nothing to do with the new one.” Brodik hesitates. “Are you sure?” “Yes,” I say slowly. “After everything she’s been through. She deserves a normal life. A father and an elder sister who will love and dote on her. And friends. She’ll make those in the pack.” I continue. “With her, Brodik. It’s more complex than ordinary. You see… she's not just Billy's daughter. She's the next Primarch Arcana. And she's a child who could burn the world if no one shows her how not to.” I thread my fingers together and rest my forearms on the table. “She’s learned the darkness of the world far too early. And she’s learned how to survive it… but not how to live…” “…And it’s only fair I give her the chance to learn the latter.” There’s silence on the line for a beat. Then Brodik says, voice low, “Yes, Alpha.” There’s respect in his tone. Deeper than before. The call ends. Eleanor’s voice echoes in my head—words she spoke just as

    Dominicus I’m in my office, a pen tapping absently on the table. The chair beneath me creaks as I lean back, leather groaning under my weight. I don’t bother calling the secretary this time. I pull out my cell phone and scroll until I find Brodik’s number. I already know he’s off territory. I felt it the moment he passed the border. The phone rings twice before he answers. “Alpha,” he greets. “What have you been able to find?” I ask, skipping the pleasantries. Brodik huffs a quiet laugh. “It’s only been two days, Alpha.” I raise a brow, even though he can’t see it. “And?” He chuckles again. “Alright, alright. I’ve found something. A lot of somethings, actually.” I’m not surprised. “Tell me.” His tone shifts immediately—serious… but there’s something else too. Dread. “I just emailed it to you. But gods, Alpha…” His voice trails off. I press the speaker button and set the phone down, swiveling toward the monitor. My inbox is already open. I refresh it once, and

    Dominicus I pin my eyes on Arran, my voice direct. “The journey to find Billy Myricks’ daughter. Tell me everything.” Arran straightens, and begins speaking. “The tracking charm Ma’am Eleanor gave us- the Scrythorn. Because it’s a magical object, she said it wouldn’t work properly if we traveled too fast or through air travel. We had to drive the whole way.” Dominicus’s brows furrow. “Where did it lead you?” “All the way to Virellis City,” Arran replies. “It was a long trip.” Dom’s expression tightens. “Virellis?” Arran nods slowly. “That’s not just a big city—it’s a known hub for underground activity. Gangs. Trafficking. Black markets. All kinds of scum hide there.” His tone sharpens. “Where exactly did the charm lead you?” Arran’s face darkens. “Downtown. Right to a building- it was a Children’s Services Department. Looked like a regional office.” My gaze narrows. I notice the way Arran’s jaw is slightly clenched. “What is it?” I ask briskly. “It’s probably

    Dominicus Emerald smiles up at her dad, a casual brightness in her voice that doesn’t quite reach her eyes. “So… when’s Grandma Eleanor going to start ‘teaching me some things’?” She tries to sound airy and as if she’s joking—but I see it. The quiet urgency. The subtle tightness in her shoulders. She’s trying to be patient, but just barely. Billy’s face falls, just a little. He looks at her and sighs. “Well… since you know what we all are now, you probably figured out about Grandma Eleanor too? Emerald nods, “Yeah! She’s just like me. I can feel it. So…” her eyes dart to Eleanor, “she’s a witch too?” she asks with deliberately injected awe in her voice. Billy nods once. “She’ll teach you a few basics. Just some defence magic. That’s it.” He throws a sharp look at Eleanor—a silent warning. ‘That’s it. Nothing more.’ Eleanor’s expression doesn’t change. Her smile stays exactly the same, calm and unreadable. Then she says gently, “It’s been a long journey. You should

    Dominicus “I don’t know too much,” Emerald says. “But… ever since I was little, I used to have these dreams.” Billy perks up. Emerald continues, her voice steady. “There was a woman in them. She always said she was my mother. She told me I was special… that I was a witch. That I had a very special purpose. She said that I shouldn’t panic.” A faint smile touches her lips. “She told me not to try to use magic though. That if I did, something bad would happen. And she said…” her gaze slides to Billy, “…she said my dad was alive. That he didn’t know where I was yet, but he’d find me one day.” Billy’s face fills with a myriad of emotions. This is pain, love, relief. His eyes go red. I watch her. Quiet. Still. “You believed it?” I ask. Emerald nods. Her eyes quickly flick to me and then away. “Yeah. Because I could see it. The magic.” My brow lifts slightly. She shrugs, like it’s the most natural thing in the world. “Even when I was a kid, I could just tell. I always k

    Dominicus They nod in respect when they see and I acknowledge it. My eyes flit through their numbers. Good, they’re all complete. I take the stone steps to the door and push it open. Laughter reaches my ears before the sight in the room greets me. Eleanor is the first I see. She’s seated on a soft sofa, back straight, hands folded delicately in her lap. There’s a smile on her lips, the kind meant to ease tension—but her eyes… her eyes are serious. My attention is instantly captured. My gaze shifts to the right—and lands on Billy. He’s got a grin on his face. A wide one. The lines around his mouth are deep with it, and there’s a light in his eyes I don’t think I have ever seen. It’s like all the sorrow buried deep, weighing down on him has been lifted. He looks lighter, freer. Younger. There’s relief in him. Joy. Love. My heart rests. Diana will he happy. I turn my head. And then I see her. She’s sitting beside him. Small frame. Short black hair. Grey- almost

    Dominicus I’m meditating—heartbeat in my ears—when I feel a presence brush the edge of my mind. Brodik. I grimace. ‘What?’ ‘Billy Myricks and the wolves are back.’ My eyes stay closed, jaw tight. ‘Did he find his daughter?’ ‘He did’. There’s a pause, the faint buzz of thought before Brodik adds, ‘To prevent shocking the girl too much, Billy’s decided to take her to Eleanor’s house in town instead of bringing her here to the pack.’ I nod once to myself. ‘And?’ ‘Miss Eleanor wants to know if you’re well enough to come see them.’ I open my eyes, slow and flat. ‘I’ll go.’ Brodik withdraws. Clean and efficient, like always. It’s not the first time I’ve spoken to someone through the pack-link in the past four days—It’s the best way I can stay informed while I’m out here– meditating– trying to keep myself from slipping. I exhale through my nose and get to my feet. The forest rustles around me, wild and quiet all at once. I reach up, pull my black shirt off the branch

    Dominicus Brodik nods, as if he expected that. “Okay. Then we add to it. We hook her up to a vitals monitor—something that tracks her heart rate, oxygen, brain activity, everything. We patch it to a display you carry with you. That way, wherever you are, you can see her vitals in real time.” That makes me freeze. He steps forward, encouraged. “We could even rig an earpiece so you can hear her heartbeat. Like… a direct feed. You’d be able to hear her, no matter where you are.” I stare at him. He finishes, “You won’t be able to feel her warmth, Alpha, but you’ll have something. And maybe… that might be enough to get you through. And you can take comfort knowing she’ll be surrounded by the best doctors. Monitored at all times. If anything changes, anything, we’ll know in seconds.” My jaw clenches. It’s still not enough. But it’s… something. Eleanor glances at me, her expression unreadable—but I can tell she approves. I look down at Diana. I don’t like it. But maybe… maybe thi
