Eden’s POVDemetrius’ eyes grew wide as I unleashed Zara.“Eden, NO!” Storm hollered. He ran towards us. But it was too late; Zara was out. Zara growled menacingly and snapped her jaws. Her fury ran through me. She wanted to taste blood, craved it. She wanted to sink her teeth into Demetrius’ flesh.And I was powerless to stop her.Demetrius shifted, into a large, brown wolf. He was thick and muscular, with long, shaggy fur. He eyes glinted at Zara. He bared his teeth.Storm and Lucia also shifted. They ran and stood beside Zara, two black wolves, digging their claws into the sand.For a moment, Demetrius was shocked to see his daughter stand on our side. He shouldn’t have been surprised though. What daughter WOULDN’T defend her mother in this scenario.What Demetrius had said? What he wanted to do?To sew Murietta’s private parts shut?It was despicable beyond comprehension.We couldn’t allow it. I’d had enough of Demetrius and his twisted games. He was unhinged, yes. But it was more

Eden’s POV“What the fuck?” Demetrius asked.He shook my vomit off his hands and glared at me. “Did you just puke on me? You revolting little bitch!”He stood up then and went to my bathroom. I heard him mumbling as he turned on the faucet.I had to admit, it gave me a little satisfaction seeing him covered in my vomit. I wiped my mouth with the sheet. Most of it had landed on him. I was fairly clean.But then an image came to me, and I shook my head.No. It was too awful. I couldn’t think about it.I’d assumed that Alpha Skylar was bringing the witches DEAD werewolves. They had given him potion in exchange for DEAD werewolves. That’s what Caleb had said. They were going to barbeque corpses.But the way Demetrius had just explained it…He said the Oak Ridden Root caused a SLOW death. And the potion had come from the witches.So….The witches wanted the wolves alive. They gave Caleb a potion that would immobilize the wolf, but keep it alive long enough to….Were they…Were they going t

Eden’s POVI was speechless for a moment. She brandished the key, smiling proudly at herself. I had no idea there was such a thing.“Demetrius had it made when he built the estate. He wanted to make sure he had complete control of everything. So he had a special key made that could unlock every single lock on the island. This way, every lock is under his control.”“The menagerie?” I asked.“Yes. All the cages. But Eden, we can’t take everyone with us. Not all the people in the menagerie.”I shook my head. No way. I wouldn’t leave them behind. I couldn’t.“There isn’t enough room,” she told me. “But I promise, we can come back for them.”I thought about it. I hated to leave anyone behind. They were all innocent, locked up down there in the menagerie. But Murietta was right. If we could leave, then we could trace where we were going. We send warriors back here, to release the prisoners.I nodded.“So what’s the plan?” I asked. Having the key was one thing. But getting out of here unnoti

Eden’s POVI held the master key firmly in my pocket as the guards unlocked the door to the menagerie. Murietta had arranged for me to visit Astrid without any other guards present. So I could talk to Astrid in private.I felt more hopeful than I had since we’d arrived on this island. With Murietta’s help, and her plan, we had a chance of escape. I hated the thought of potentially leaving Murietta behind. I prayed to the Moon Goddess that wouldn’t happen.I walked past all the cages, my head down. I couldn’t bear to look at all the wolves in cages. I vowed that I would return and free them all, once we were back at Silvermist Pack and had more help.I checked in on Adrian. He was sleeping in his tiny bed, a nightlight shining beside him. He looked so peaceful. I didn’t want to disturb. I would tell him about the plan another time.Astrid’s was the last cage now. They’d built it for her. Before, Adrian had been the last cage. The walls of the cage were pink. The bed had a pink bedsprea

Eden’s POVI blinked.I loved Astrid. I really did. And I respected her.But I failed to see how Astrid could defeat an entire army. Especially an army made up of some of the most powerful packs around, equipped with wolf-stunning witch’s potions, with the mafia’s backing.Astrid’s face broke out into a wide smile.“I know what you’re thinking. I can see it on your face. No, Eden. I’m not so vain as to think that I can beat this army on my own. But I overheard a lot while they kept me chained up. And I mean A LOT. My wolf – she has extraordinary hearing. She can hear right through walls. So while Alpha Skylar was having his little strategy meetings with the other alphas, I overheard.”I didn’t understand. How did overhearing alpha meetings help us?“I know what their strategy is,” Astrid said. “I know exactly which packs they’re planning to attack and when. Their whole plan. I know it all. So I know where to cut them off.”Oh. My. Moon Goddess!Yes!That was amazing. If Astrid knew wh
