Present DaySaige's POVPain. Screaming. Groaning. Crying. Silence. What's going on? Where am I? Why do I feel so numb but in such pain at the same time? Why is it so dark?"Kaia?" I called out and immediately regretted it. The small amount of energy brought me more pain and quickly silenced me. The steaming air around me was suffocating and the smoke clouded my vision. I blinked my eyes slowly to adjust and observed my surroundings.When my eyes finally focused, I realized that I'm in a car and the smoke and hot air were coming from the hood of the car that has been crashed against a large tree. What happened? The driver of the car, Raven, she didn't have her seatbelt on; half o

Sitting by the fireplace in Ellis's cabin brought me some sort of comfort. Saige and I were a bundle of nerves the moment we stepped inside and Ellis left us with glasses of wine as she continued to cook. The wine seemed to calmed Saige's anxiety; she paced around the den with her glass in hand as she looked through the photos Ellis has framed.She gasped and grabbed a photo before running towards me. "Look at how adorable this is! We need to ask for a copy and give it to Elios" she gushed and pushed the frame into my chest.I caught it and held it up for a better view. Seeing what the photo held brought a smile to my face. It was Elios and Astrid at her birthday party. He was putting a flower crown he probably made on her head for her and they were smiling at each other. He is such a romantic.

10 years ago...Saige's POV"There you are!" I chimed as I hooked my leg onto the roof. I crawled over to Aziel who sat in the middle on a blanket.He looked away from the night sky and smiled at me. "What are you doing up? It's 12:30 at night" he asked."I wanted to be the first to tell my brother happy birthday since I couldn't sleep"He chuckled and patted the spot next to him which I gladly accepted. "Mission accomplished" he joked.I smiled and leaned against his arm. I looked up into the starry night with him. The stars appeared so bright out here; there's no light pollution since we're so far

Elios’s POVKaia sighed heavily as she sat on my bed and buried her face in her hands with her elbows on her knees. I can tell from the way her shoulders slumped over that she was exhausted. This entire week has been quite traumatic to say the least. My sisters get all of their memories back, we found out that we lost a brother and I found out my dad murdered my mom. On top of that, Astrid is dealing with a loss and a traumatic experience of her own. I’m only glad I was able to be there for her.“Kaia, I promise you that I’m okay. You don’t need to keep watch like I’m a patient in a psyche ward” I told her and sat next to her.Kaia chuckled and looked up from her hands. Despite being asleep for three days, the bags under her eyes were prominent and she looked like she aged 5 more years in the short amo

Aldric’s POV“Do you think we’re stupid?”“Do you think we’re retarded?”“Did you think we would never find out?”I’ve said those exact words to my daughters more times than I can count. The fear in their eyes when I would advance on them whenever they would defy me would bring such joy to my distant wolf. Anything relating to Bellatrix brought blood thirsty rage and only when my beautiful daughters would do anything out of line is the only time I can feel him again.My human soul is in a constant battle with itself. Wanting to please my dormant wolf but also trying to keep my humanity. When did I become this way? When did bringing pain to my flesh and blood bring me happiness? When did puttin
