ALEXIS' POVAs the chauffeur escorts me into the castle, the nervousness in me only grows. I had not imagined I would visit the castle again, just as soon as I visited the first time. And most ridiculously, that I would be invited exclusively to have dinner with the Luna. I wonder if Donovan has any idea of this. As soon as the chauffeur walks me into the entrance of the magnificent building, a small group of young maids hurry over to us and I grip the edge of my dress nervously as they give small curt bows of their head. A respect to…me. If anyone had told me I would ever get to experience a day like this, I would have laughed at their face, pointed at them and called them foolish liars. But this is no lie. Neither is it a fantasy. Or a dream. It is the reality. "Welcome, mi lady." The eldest of the maids greet me. She looks like she would be the head maid here. "Please, allow us to escort you to the dining room. The Luna is waiting patiently for you.""I…" Just as I open my mouth

ALEXIS' POVA man with long snowy white hair is running and being pursued by the army. As they gain closer, he transforms into a white wolf and runs in full speed while the other men shift into their wolf forms too and follow him. When they finally surround him, he tries to attack the army wolves but he is outnumbered. As his eyes search for an escape route, an arrow suddenly comes from nowhere and pierces him in the head. It is a blue flame arrow. The white wolf falls down to the ground, weak and lifeless. And then, a few seconds later, after the poison from the arrow entirely penetrates his whole body, the white wolf bursts in specks of blue dust and vanishes into thin air. Someone jumps from one of the trees in the forest. He is covered in a black cloak and has on a face mask that hides his entire face. "Find the rest." He commands the army and they obey immediately, running into the forest to carry out his order. After the army leaves, he slowly brings down the face mask to unvei

ALEXIS' POVToday is the final day of school before summer break. Everyone is excited and chattering about happily while I keep myself some distance away from them. In the cafeteria, as we have lunch, I am lost in my thoughts to pay attention to Lori and her friends who are glaring at me. Aurora isn't sitting with them today. Just like me, she is sitting alone this time. But it doesn't bother me and I couldn't care less. My thoughts are occupied by matters far more important than Aurora's petty hate. My father was a white wolf and had been killed because of that. My mother too. I had lived in lies my entire life and blamed my parents for things they never did. I had accused them. Hated them. Cursed them. I want to hate grandma Rivera for feeding me with these lies just to hide the truth from me. But no matter how hard I try to spite her, I cannot. But that doesn't mean I think she is completely innocent either. I want to yell at her. Smash things. Accuse her of lying to me about my

ALEXIS' POVGrandma Rivera's health worsens today as well and I cannot think straight as I prepare her herbs and medicines in the kitchen. Her health has deteriorated with every passing day and I am beginning to fear that if I don't take her to see a uu on time, she might die from her illness. The fact that I am cashless and cannot sponsor her treatment makes me even more weak and bound to the torture of seeing her suffer in pain. I scan through my head to come up with any idea of raising funds for grandma Rivera's health. Perhaps I could ask Ms Bell for a part payment of the work I have done for this month. I already know it is a vile effort. My wages are too poor and cannot even afford to buy her complete medications. Maybe I should get a loan from Ms. Bell. She wouldn't turn me down, seeing that grandma Rivera's health is involved. The door of the living room turns open and I turn my head to see Ian walk in. Our eyes meet and his lips lift in a sinister smile. He walks towards my

ALEXIS' POVBefore evening, the Luna ordered the chauffeur to escort me to our house and help pack the personal belongings of grandma Rivera and I. After we finish packing up, I ask him to wait for me outside the house while I take a few minutes to take a final look at the apartment before I would come join him again. The chauffeur was surprisingly understanding and allowed me to take my time. Now left alone in the house, I stroll around the almost empty room and scan the entire room with my eyes. This is the place I have been raised since I was a child. I have known no other home apart from this place, close to grandma Rivera. I had always looked forward to the day we would finally leave this house but now that the day is here, I feel surprisingly attached to it and it feels as if I am letting an old friend go. "I wouldn't want to let you go too if I was your house." A familiar female voice comes from behind me and I immediately turn my head to see the frame of a girl my age standi
