It was still a topic that was off-limits, and I could only hope he would respect my need to avoid it. "I need a favour."
“Okay…”
“Can me and the triplets squeeze in here with you for a few weeks?”
“Of course you can. It’s not surprising that you don’t want to be home alone with Brodie gone.” In just a few seconds, he was already probing. I looked around, but there was no sign of Mikkel. It seemed like a decision they should have made together.
“It’s not about Brodie. It’s for the building work. I’m just trying to speed things up for the good of the pack. I don’t need to worry about Brodie; he’ll be back home soon enough.” The words felt hollow as they left my lips, echoing in the tense silence around me. I wasn’t sure I believed them myself.

The Whispers in the Woods Chapter 128
Tyler was busy ripping his t-shirt to pieces and using it to bind my wrist. It was bleeding a lot and would need some serious attention. I had been tempted to use my powers, but the last thing I needed was to be in a blind rage with Rachelle around. It wasn’t like she didn’t have a knack at pissing me off. I needed a calm and clear head if I was going to convince her to return to the pack and clear Brodie’s name. “You okay?” Tyler was watching me carefully as he worked, no doubt looking for signs of discomfort.“Yes, Tyler, I’m fine.”“Brodie is going to kill me when he finds out,” he muttered, the weight of the impending consequences hanging heavily in the air. Deep down, I knew he was right, but I couldn’t help but believe we would discover a way to navigate the predicament. If I managed to heal before we returned to camp, Brodie would never have to know the truth.Besides, he really needed to dial down his protectiveness. I was the one out there, risking it a

Everything that happened next unfolded like a series of unbelievable events, one after another. The little red boat crashed against the rocky coast, and despite its sturdy exterior, it stood little chance against the relentless forces of nature. The violent impact hurled me towards the direction the wave had come from, as if the ocean itself was punishing me for attempting to escape its grasp. My stomach collided with the edge of the boat, leaving me momentarily suspended over the stormy sea below. There was something almost enchanting about the tumultuous waters, and I found myself unable to tear my gaze away from its murky depths, where shadows danced and secrets lay hidden.I couldn’t hear anything beyond the howling wind and the bone-jarring grind of the boat against the jagged cliffs. Suddenly, the vessel lurched away from the coast, tilting dangerously and nearly pitching me overboard in the process. I grasped the side with all my strength, waiting for it to steady itse

I knew, as soon as we left, that darkness would envelop the road before we arrived at our destination. Tyler had protested vehemently, voicing his concerns repeatedly. He argued that Brodie would be furious with him for allowing me to venture there, especially at night. I understood the risks involved, but the urgency of my mission overshadowed my fears. I couldn’t bear to wait another moment to embark on the journey that I hoped would lead me to Brodie's homecoming.Once we were on the road, I took the opportunity to check in with Jackson. I wanted to ensure he was managing well with the babies and to inform him that I might be out all night. Although he was accustomed to my unpredictable adventures and reassured me that he was fine with it, I felt it was only polite to keep him in the loop about my plans.It was a long drive to even get to the right part of the coast. “Cassie, why did you go all this way just to go to the island?” I asked out of pure curiosity.

Cassie agreed to help, but I was uncertain about what truly motivated her decision. To ensure our safety and perhaps to stimulate some encouragement for Cassie, I arranged for Tyler to accompany us. As I had been discussing our plans with Cassie, Tyler had arrived, and I witnessed the way Cassie's face illuminated the moment he showed up. The spark in her eyes was unmistakable. Given everything else I had observed, I felt increasingly convinced that there was a genuine connection—perhaps even feelings—between the two of them.We set off without hesitation, leaving the confines of the camp behind us as we made our way to the university. The decision had been Cassie's; she was determined to investigate Rachelle's locker in hopes of uncovering clues that might lead us to her whereabouts. The thought of unearthing something that could shed light on her disappearance filled the air with an electric anticipation.Cassie believed that locating any of Rachelle's belongings tha

Unfortunately, alone time wasn’t something I was going to get. As soon as I stepped through the door, I was met by Gerald, who sat there, his expression mirroring the misery I felt inside. His shoulders slumped as if the weight of the world rested upon them, and the shadows beneath his eyes hinted at sleepless nights spent worrying.There was no other option than to shove my feelings down as deep as they would go, burying them beneath layers of resolve and determination. I had to concentrate on business. Brodie had been away from camp for far too long, searching for me, and I knew he hadn’t managed to catch up on everything he had missed during his absence. His commitment to keeping our mission on track was unwavering, and now it was my turn to step up and take charge.“Brodie said we had work to do,” I stated, forcing a steady tone into my voice as I crossed the threshold.“Are you sure you’re okay to get into this?” Gerald’s eyebrows rising slightly at the not
