David and Luna left Rosemary inside the cage. She was shaking and afraid. She remembered when she was small, her adopted father Francisco used to lock her up inside a wardrobe. Rosemary began to cry, hoping someone could hear her voice and help her out of the cage. But no one could hear her because she was deep inside a forest where no one lived. The trees were thick and tall. The only sounds were birds and wind. Rosemary felt so alone and scared. "Please, someone help me," she whispered to her baby. "I don't want to die here." Meanwhile, Alex was still doing investigation about where Rosemary could be. That morning, Alex received information about Rosemary. But he never knew that it was fake information to distract him and Austin from the company meeting. Alex had prepared to follow Alpha Austin to the meeting when he received the fake information that Rosemary was found in the next pack close to Vinci Pack. Alex told Austin as he was ready to leave for the meeting. The mom
When Rosemary looked up and saw the cage, before she knew it, the cage fell and covered her. She couldn't scream. The metal bars crashed down around her, trapping her inside. That was when Rosemary knew that she had fallen into her enemies' trap."No!" Rosemary cried, grabbing the bars and trying to shake them. But the cage was too strong. It was made of silver, which burned her hands when she touched it.Luna stood up from where she was hiding behind a tree. But now she was not alone. A tall man with dark hair walked out of the shadows. He looked like Austin, but his eyes were cold and mean."Hello, Rosemary," David said with a nasty smile."David," Rosemary said, her voice shaking. "I should have known you were behind this."Luna walked over to David and stood next to him. "You did very well, my son," she said to David.Rosemary's heart stopped. "Your son? But you said you were here to help me!""I lied," Luna said. "I'm not just a seer. I'm also David's mother. And I'm a witch.""W
"I wasn't sure you would come," Luna said."What do you want?" Rosemary asked."To tell you the truth," Luna said. "Austin is not your enemy. Ariana is.""I know that," Rosemary said. "Ariana tried to kill me.""It's worse than that," Luna said. "Ariana is not Austin's mate. She's been using magic to make him think she is.""What?" Rosemary said."Ariana is a witch," Luna said. "Half werewolf, half witch. She's been using her powers to manipulate Austin."Rosemary sat down on the bench. "How do you know this?""Because I'm a seer," Luna said. "I can see things that others can't. And I can see that Austin is your real mate.""That's impossible," Rosemary said. "I'm human.""Are you?" Luna asked. "Did the Moon Goddess visit you?"Rosemary nodded."Then you're not just human," Luna said. "You have werewolf blood in you. That's why you have healing powers.""My parents were human," Rosemary said."Your adopted parents were human," Luna said. "But your real parents were werewolves. Very po
Rosemary's heart was beating fast as she watched the man from far away. She hid behind a tree and waited. The man was tall and had dark hair. He smelled like werewolf but something was different about his smell. The man walked around the building for a few minutes. Then he got into a car and drove away. Rosemary waited for ten more minutes before she came out of her hiding spot. "Maybe he was not looking for me," she said to herself. "Maybe he was just visiting someone else." But Rosemary was still scared. She went up to her room and locked the door. She put her hand on her stomach and felt the baby moving. "We have to be more careful," she said to her baby. "There are werewolves everywhere now." "My husband wants to kill me," Rosemary said. THREE MONTHS LATER Rosemary's belly was getting bigger. She was now five months pregnant. Her job at the restaurant was getting harder because she was always tired. "You need to slow down," Mrs. Chen told her. "You're working too m
She knew what that feeling was. She had heard other women talk about it.She was pregnant.Rosemary was carrying Austin's baby."This can't be happening," she said to herself.The bus stopped at Riverside. Rosemary got off and looked around. It was a big city with lots of people. She could hide here.But hiding was going to be hard. Especially with a baby coming.Rosemary walked around the city until she found a small apartment building. There was a sign in the window: "Room for rent. Cheap."She knocked on the door. An old woman answered."I need a room," Rosemary said."You got money?" the old woman asked."A little," Rosemary said."How much?"Rosemary showed her the money she had. It wasn't much."This will pay for one month," the old woman said. "After that, you need to find work.""I can work," Rosemary said. "I can clean or cook or anything.""What's your name?" the old woman asked.Rosemary thought for a moment. She couldn't use her real name. Austin might find her."Rose," sh
"Do you think you could really escape from me?" Ariana said to Rosemary. "No, you can't escape from the pack either. Because you're nothing but a criminal and a murderer to them now."Ariana's eyes were cold and mean. "Austin is looking for you to kill you for what you have done to his only sister Maya. But I don't think I will allow him to find you alive. Maybe I should do him a favor by killing you here. That will just be easier for him and the entire pack."Ariana smiled in a scary way. "Come on sweetie, just give up. You're just a human with no strength. You're no match for werewolves."Rosemary was crying. Her heart was breaking."Ariana, please don't do this," Rosemary begged. "Just spare Maya.""Why should I spare Maya?" Ariana laughed. "I can't spare her, my dear. In fact, I have to make sure that Austin never hears from Maya again. I will kill her and take her dead body to your adopted father's house - Lucy Francisco. Then Austin and the pack will destroy all the humans."Ari
