PRISCILLA

Just as I pushed myself up, preparing to bolt toward the door, Mikah reached out and grabbed my wrist—not hard, but firm enough to stop me.

"Wait," he said, his voice low, strained.

I froze. “What is it?”

His eyes shifted, their glow dimmering. “I’m going to be punished for interfering.”

“What?” I blinked. “Punished by who?”

He hesitated, then said softly, “By the ones who appointed me to guide you.”

A chill swept across my skin. “But isn’t that what you’re doing, guiding me, helping me?”

“guiding you, yes. But helping you out of trouble…” He looked away. “That wasn’t in my contract.”

“You cried a lot,” he added with a small, pained smile. “It kept my head too full to ignore you.”

Then he turned his palm toward me. A faint, silver-white smoke coiled from his fingers—light as feathers, warm as breath. It spun in slow, spiralling tendrils until it wrapped around me like a silk cocoon.

I gasped as my body was gently lifted an inch off the floor, encased in a soft, s

    GABRIEL I slammed my claws into a nearby tree trunk, splintering bark. “This is gonna be a hell of blood and sweat to find her now,” I muttered through gritted teeth. My heart thundered. She was getting farther. I couldn’t feel her anymore—not through the bond. Just a haunting blankness. But then— I caught another scent. Familiar. Pack. Austin. And the other pack members. Without hesitation, I pivoted and took off, the wind howling against me as I followed the trail. It wove deep into the woods, winding through thick brush and sharp turns until I reached them—Austin, in wolf form, and Aurora riding low on his back. They stopped as soon as they caught sight of me, their bodies tense. Aurora’s eyes widened. She slid off quickly, reading the fury rolling off me in waves. She knew what was coming. I didn’t stop. I lunged. I crashed into Austin with full force, sending us both rolling across the dirt, teeth bared, snarls ripping from our throats. He met me halfway, growling

    PRISCILLA The words hung in the air like a curse—sharp, heavy, final. "Now it's time for me to make you mine." My pulse slammed against my throat. I could feel it thudding in my chest like a drum, loud and frantic. The weight of his words pinned me in place more than the ropes holding me to the chair ever could. He was so close now. His breath brushed against my cheek, warm and too calm for what he’d just said. I didn’t flinch this time. I couldn’t afford to. I stared straight ahead, refusing to meet his eyes. The stench that usually came with his growl hadn’t returned, but something else had. A pressure. An invisible coil wrapping around my ribs, making it hard to breathe. “I’m not yours,” I said quietly. My voice didn’t shake. His lips twitched. Not in amusement, but something else—regret? Anguish? “I don’t think you understand what you are,” he murmured. “But it’s okay. I’ll show you.” I didn’t like the way he said that. “Why now?” I asked, trying to buy time, trying to

    GABRIEL The gas station attendant didn’t even flinch under my weight. He just stared up at me, calm as the eye of a storm. “You gonna get off me, or do I need to breathe through my ears?” he muttered. I didn’t move. Not yet. My mind was spinning. This wasn’t the rogue. This wasn’t the man who’d been circling Priscilla, shadowing her steps with a predator’s patience. But something in this guy’s eyes told me he knew exactly who I was looking for. “You’re going to tell me everything,” I said, voice like gravel. He smirked. “That depends. You asking nicely?” I didn’t answer. Before I could speak again, my phone buzzed violently in my pocket. I froze. Austin’s name lit the screen. Something was wrong. I shoved off the guy and ripped the phone from my pocket, turning my back to him as I answered. "What?" Austin’s voice was tight. Too tight. "Gabriel—she’s gone." Everything inside me went still. "What do you mean gone?" I barked. "She went outside the wards

    PRISCILLA My instincts screamed before I could even think. That voice. That presence. It doesn’t belong here. A chill tore through me, freezing my lungs mid-breath. I spun on my heel, every hair on my body standing as I turned to bolt—but I didn’t make it far. A hand—cold, lightning-fast—snatched me back like I weighed nothing. I barely got a breath in before another hand slapped over my mouth, cutting off my scream. My eyes went wide. My body locked. Panic surged, but I didn’t freeze—I fought. I swung my leg back, hitting him hard in the shin. Nothing. I twisted my torso and elbowed him in the ribs, then aimed straight for the place that always brought any man to his knees. Still nothing. What was he? My lungs burned for air. My heart slammed against my ribs. His grip was iron around me, keeping me pinned to his chest, so close I could feel his breath brush the back of my neck. But it wasn’t laborious. It was calm. Too calm. I thrashed harder, adrenaline tearing through

    PRISCILLA "You didn’t have to tell him!" I snapped, pacing the length of Davina’s room like a storm on two legs. My hands clenched into fists at my sides. "I could’ve handled it. I was handling it." Davina stood by the window, arms crossed, eyes flaring with disbelief. "Oh yeah? Really looked like you were handling it, Pris. Saying nothing, doing nothing—just letting that bitch breathe all over you like she owned the air." I turned on her. "You don’t get it. She’s his pack member, Davina. What do you think he’s going to do? Scold her? Take my side and start punishing his own?" Davina’s expression twisted, wild-eyed, her voice coming out in a rush of fire. "Don’t you dare act like I’m the crazy one here! I’m not just going to sit there and let some little bitch walk all over you, pretending nothing’s wrong. Are you telling me I’m supposed to let you fight that battle alone while I twiddle my thumbs and wait for you to fall apart? Hell no, Priscilla!" I swallowed, but I could feel
