I drive Cheryl to her parents' house, my grip on the steering wheel tight as I navigate the quiet streets. The tension in the car is palpable. Cheryl’s shaken, and I can see the fear in her eyes as she stares out the window, lost in her thoughts. I want to reassure her, but words seem inadequate right now.When we pull up to her parents' house, I can see the lights on and the front door slightly open, a beacon of warmth and safety in the darkness. Cheryl’s parents are standing there, their faces a mix of worry and relief. As soon as I put the car in park, they rush out to greet us, their expressions softening as they see Cheryl.“Cheryl!” her mother exclaims, her voice trembling with emotion. “Oh, thank God, you’re safe!”Cheryl’s father wraps her in a tight embrace, his relief evident. I can see the tears in his eyes as he holds her close. Cheryl clings to him, her own tears flowing freely as she finally lets go of some of the fear she’s been holding in.“We were so worried,” her mot

As the pack gathers in the main hall, the atmosphere is tense. Word has spread quickly about the betrayal within our ranks, and everyone’s on edge. I stand beside Cillian, Callum, and Cheryl, waiting for the moment when Cillian will address the pack. The weight of what’s about to happen hangs heavily in the air.Cillian steps forward, his presence commanding the room. He looks out at the assembled pack members, his face a mix of authority and empathy. “Pack members,” he begins, his voice carrying the gravity of the situation, “we’ve discovered that we have a traitor among us. This betrayal goes deeper than we initially realized, and it’s time you all know the truth.”A murmur ripples through the crowd, and I can see the confusion and concern in their faces. The revelation of a traitor is unsettling enough, but when it’s someone as close as Raina, it hits even harder.Cillian continues, his tone steady. “Raina, our trusted ally and Callum’s mate, has been working with Donovan Sullivan

He opens the door just a crack, enough to see who’s on the other side without exposing too much of the room. I can’t see who it is, but the look on Luke’s face tells me everything I need to know. Whatever is happening, it’s not good.“Get inside,” Luke growls at whoever is out there, his tone brooking no argument.The door swings open wider, and Raina steps into the cabin, her face pale and drawn, her eyes wide with something that looks suspiciously like fear. My stomach drops at the sight of her. I don’t trust her—not after everything that’s happened. She’s part of this, somehow, and I’m not sure if she’s here to help or to betray us once again.“What the hell are you doing here?” Luke demands, his voice a low rumble that sends a shiver down my spine.Raina’s eyes darted between us, her breath coming in short, panicked gasps. “Luke… they know. The hunters… they’re coming. You have to get out, both of you. Now.”The world tilts on its axis, my mind struggling to catch up with her word

The old sawmill looms ahead, a shadowed relic of another time, its rusted metal and decaying wood creaking in the night wind. My heart pounds in my chest, each step forward feeling like I’m walking into a dark abyss. Luke is beside me, his presence a steadying force, but there’s an edge to his calm—an unspoken fear that mirrors my own. Raina leads the way, her figure barely visible in the dim light filtering through the trees. I can sense her unease, the weight of whatever guilt she carries bearing down on her with every step. The tension between the three of us is thick, an unspoken mix of distrust, fear, and desperation.When we finally reach the sawmill, the silence is deafening. I can’t shake the feeling that something’s wrong. Luke’s grip on my hand tightens, and I know he feels it too. Raina hesitates at the entrance, her breath coming in quick, shallow bursts. I watch her closely, the way her eyes dart around, scanning the area like she’s expecting something—anything.“This is

The night air is crisp and cold as Cheryl and I carefully maneuver Raina through the dense forest. The tension between us is palpable, the weight of recent events hanging heavily over our heads. We’re all acutely aware of the stakes, and every sound seems magnified in the stillness of the woods.The figure steps into the light, and my heart skips a beat as I recognize the face of Donovan—the very person we’ve been trying to outmaneuver.“Didn’t expect to find you here,” Donovan says, his voice dripping with cold amusement. “But it seems I’ve stumbled upon a little family reunion.”Before I can react, Donovan’s gaze sweeps over the room, settling on Raina with a look of twisted satisfaction. “So, the traitor returns to her old friends,” he says, his tone mocking. “And here I was thinking we’d have to go looking for her. It seems you’re all so eager to make this easy for me.”Panic surges through me as I exchange a glance with Cheryl. We’re caught off guard, and Donovan’s presence is a
