Chapter Thirty One Third Person’s Perspective “Honey…please eat your breakfast before it gets too cold” Serena told her son, who had been playing with his meal since it was brought to the tableHe thought that if he took long enough, then the bus would leave without him and that way he wouldn’t have to go to school “I am eating as fast as I can, mom” he answered, all the while still playing with the food Jeremy walked in, he seemed to have noticed the attitude Liam was passingInstantly, he knew something was bothering the little guy “Buddy” he called out, drawing a chair and sitting next to Liam“Is someone still bothering you at school?” Liam shook his head but his father could sense that he wasn’t saying the truthHe always wondered if they had super powers and could read his mind and also tell when he wasn’t saying the truth, but even still, he was determined to hide it from them“Talk to me, I’m here” Jeremy nudged but he remained adamant“You see what mother did the other

Chapter Thirty Three First Person’s Perspective Serena The first night after we left the pack was the hardest. We didn’t have a home. We didn’t have a plan. Just a bag with a few clothes, some snacks, and each other. We walked for hours. The sun went down slowly, and the sky turned dark. I held Liam’s hand the whole time. Jeremy walked beside us, quiet, always looking around for danger. “Where are we going?” Liam asked after a while. “We’re looking for a safe place, sweetheart,” I said, brushing his hair back. “Somewhere we can rest.” “I’m tired,” he whispered. “I know,” Jeremy said. “We’ll stop soon, I promise.” We found a small cave that night. It wasn’t much,just some rocks and cold ground,but it was better than nothing. Jeremy made a small fire outside, far enough so no one would notice the smoke. I wrapped Liam in a jacket and held him close. “I’m scared,” he said softly, his head resting on my chest. “I am too,” I whispered. “But we’re together. That’s

Chapter Thirty Five — Peace Never Lasts Serena “Mommy.” He was not just calling out to me, he was crying. It was a call for help. A sound full of fear. A sound no mother wants to hear. I opened my eyes fast. My heart was beating so hard. I jumped to my feet, grabbed the thin blanket off my legs, and ran out of the small shelter we had built with sticks and cloth. “Liam!” I shouted. “What happened?” He was standing just outside. His little face was pale. His eyes were wide with fear. He pointed with a shaking hand. “Men… so many men,” he whispered. “They came from the woods.” My heart stopped. I couldn’t breathe for a second. Jeremy was already outside. He had heard Liam too. He stood in front of us now, growling low. His hands were shaking but strong. He looked into the trees. Then I saw him. Jake. He stepped out from the shadows like a nightmare. His eyes were cold. His face was tight with anger. He stood tall and proud, like he owned the world. Behind him

Chapter Thirty Seven — Not Broken Yet Dual POV: Serena and Jeremy Serena The wagon stopped. The wheels creaked as they came to a halt, grinding against the dry earth. Dust floated into the air, dancing in the sunlight that filtered through the tiny holes in the wooden walls of the wagon. The sudden silence was worse than the rattling noise we had heard all morning. I held Liam’s hand tighter, even though my wrists were tied. The rope had rubbed the skin raw. My arms ached from holding onto him, but I refused to let go. I couldn’t. The door opened with a loud metal clang. A guard climbed up and yanked me by the arm. I stumbled, my feet barely catching the step before I hit the ground. Liam jumped down right behind me. He didn’t cry, but his little face was pale, his lips pressed into a tight line. The sun hit my eyes. For a moment, I blinked against the bright light. It felt too warm, too peaceful, for what we were walking into. Then I saw it. A big

Chapter Thirty Nine First Person Perspective Jake I was sitting on the big chair near the fire. Alpha Robert was beside me. He was drinking from his silver cup, laughing. I laughed too. His guards stood by the door, silent. The room was warm, and outside it was dark and cold. “You saw his face?” Alpha Robert said with a loud laugh. “He looked like a scared rabbit!” I laughed harder. “He really thought he could escape!” We clinked our cups together. It was fun to watch that fool try to run with his little family. He didn’t even make it far. He got caught right at the edge of the forest. Robert shook his head, grinning. “And did you see the look on the Serena’s face? That was—” “Priceless!” I finished for him. We both laughed again. It felt good. I hadn’t laughed like this in days. But then something started to bother me. I rubbed my chin and looked into the fire. “Hmm…” I said. “What?” Robert asked. I sat up straighter. “That man… Jeremy… something is not ri
