HELEN'S POVBLISSFUL MOMENTSAs I pulled up to my house, a sense of quiet relief washed over me. It had been weeks since I'd been here, weeks spent caring for Lyra and Logan, ensuring they had some semblance of normalcy amid the chaos surrounding Iris and Gavin.But today, for the first time in a while, I had a moment to myself, and it felt like returning to familiar ground. However, I wasn’t expecting to see anyone standing by my front steps, least of all Jerry.He grinned when he saw me, an easy, knowing smile lighting up his face. “Took you long enough, Helen,” he said. “Thought I’d just stay here until you finally decided to come home.”I raised an eyebrow, crossing my arms. “And how, exactly, did you know I’d be coming back today? Psychic link?”Jerry laughed, the sound carrying across the quiet yard. “Something like that,” he replied, shrugging. “Guess I just had a feeling you’d need a little company tonight.”I shook my head, unable to keep from smiling. “You’re crazy, you know

GAVIN'S POVFIND HELENGavin’s hand left my shoulder as he took charge, issuing instructions to Iris, who was already pulling out her phone. Her expression was fierce, determined, the look of someone who wouldn’t rest until we had Helen back.She was as much a warrior as Gavin was, especially when it came to family, and I knew I could trust her to rally the pack.“Get Leon on the line,” Gavin said, his tone clipped and business-like. “We need his best trackers. No one’s taking a step until we have a perimeter set.”Iris nodded, her fingers flying across her phone screen. “Already done. Leon’s sending word out. We’ll have people positioned all around the city by the hour.”My thoughts raced as I clutched Helen’s phone in my hand. The blood, the broken screen, it was a deliberate message, meant to shake me.And it worked. Every second she was missing was a second too long. I couldn’t stand still, couldn’t think straight, not with her out there somewhere, maybe in pain, maybe calling for

IRIS'S POVMASTERMINDERAfter what felt like hours, I turned to Gavin, who looked back at me, his expression a mix of exhaustion and steely resolve.“Gavin,” I whispered, glancing down at the children to make sure they were still asleep, “we need to find out who’s behind all this. Helen… Ciara… now Rhys’s escape. They’re too connected to ignore. Someone is trying to tear apart our family and the pack from within, and I won’t let them get away with it.”His eyes narrowed slightly, reflecting the same determination I felt. “I know. I can feel it too,” he murmured, barely above a whisper. “Whatever it is, they’re determined, and they’re ruthless. But we’ll get through this. One by one, we’ll find them, whoever they are. And when we do…”He didn’t finish the sentence, but the hard line of his jaw said enough. Gavin was ready to fight, just as much as I was. He glanced over at Logan and Lyra, his gaze softening as he brushed a stray lock of hair from Logan’s forehead. “But first, we keep t

IRIS'S POVFLASH ATTACKERAfter what felt like an eternity, the trail opened up into a small clearing. My eyes scanned the area, looking for any sign of Helen, any hint that she had been here. And then I saw it, a piece of cloth snagged on a thorn bush, the same colour as the shirt she’d been wearing.I held it up to Gavin, feeling a surge of hope. “She was here. We’re close.”Gavin’s gaze sharpened. “Then let’s move fast. She could still be nearby.”As we pressed forward, I felt a renewed strength, a fierce resolve that nothing and no one would stand in our way. Whoever had taken Helen was about to face a storm they couldn’t begin to imagine.We’d finally found something, a shred of Helen’s shirt snagged on a thorn bush at the pack’s boundary. I held the torn fabric in my hand, feeling the weight of it settle over me. She was close. I looked at Gavin, who nodded, understanding my thoughts without words."She’s here, somewhere," I whispered, mostly to myself.Jerry, who had been relen

JERRY'S POVFORESTI sat cross-legged near the dying embers of the fire, watching Gavin and Iris as they slept. The way Gavin had settled her into his lap, his strong arms wrapped protectively around her, filled me with a strange mix of admiration and concern.It was hard to believe how far we had all come, and yet here we were, stuck in the middle of a dark forest with the weight of the world on our shoulders. I wanted to look away, to let the exhaustion pull me under, but I couldn’t tear my gaze from them.Gavin had insisted we take turns keeping watch, but I disagreed. He was my boss, my friend, and I couldn’t let him push himself too hard, especially not now.He needed to rest, and I’d be damned if I let anything happen to them on my watch. The least I could do was keep my eyes open and my mind alert.The flames flickered, casting long shadows that danced across the trees surrounding us. I poked at the fire, trying to coax it back to life. It was too quiet here, too easy to let my
