Serena’s PoVI woke up instantly, feeling like vomiting and obviously it compelled me to quickly come out of the tent. I sat on the ground, vomiting inside a bush in front of me. Then I placed my head down and tried to grab the grass around me to find balance. I breathed in shallow gasps.“Serena?” Rachel’s concerned voice called from behind me.I shifted my head to the side and ran my fingers through my lips. “I’m fine,” I managed to say but even I didn’t believe it.“You’re not fine,” Rachel said firmly, kneeling beside me. Then taking the back of her hand she touched my head and it was quite hot. “You look pale and your pulse is rapid. How long have you been like this?”I shrugged, replying with a shaky tone. “I don’t know. It just started. I just thought it was the stress… everything that’s been happening.”Rachel’s eyes nar

Serena’s PoVI stood at the edge of the camp Joachim had given us guests to stay. The plague had taken its toll on us, leaving everyone on edge. They were nervous and even unbelieving of better days. I rubbed my temple, worried that one day, their feelings might be correct.“Serena,” Zone called out, breaking me away from my rancid thoughts. “The patrol spotted movement in the forest.”“What kind of movement?” I asked.“Infected wolves,” he said grimly.It’s almost like we were now used to this life so it was not a surprise to me. “We’ll handle it,” I said grimly.“I just wonder when these crazy attacks would stop. I’m hella tired of them I swear to you.” Zone confessed.“I don’t know that answer to your question, Zone. I wish I knew.” I replied tiredly.When we arrived at the forest, the attack came faster than any

Serena’s POVThe forest was around us as we made our way toward the witches’ stronghold. There was tension in the air and every sound was amplified by the gravity of what lay ahead. Rachel walked beside me, her face was pale yet she had determination written all over it.Behind us, Ardan and Zone exchanged quiet words with a lowered and serious tone.I clutched my stomach instinctively, the life growing inside me was a constant reminder of how much was at stake. My thoughts were only of doubt and fear. Could I lead them into battle knowing I might not return? And what if Gloria’s spirit was right—what if my child was destined to bring destruction instead of unity?“Serena,” Ardan’s voice pulled me from my thoughts. He had moved closer with piercing gaze locking onto mine. “We’ll get through this. Together.”I nodded, though I wasn’t completely certain. I wanted to believe him, but Gl

Serena’s PoVIt was still early morning and the weather was chilly as I came out; my hands went towards my enlarged belly. It had become a much quieter camp in the following weeks after the annihilation of Gloria’s magic as well as the removal of the plague. For the first time in a long time, wolves from Ardan’s pack, the rogues, and the refugees joined each other in constructing homes and clearing wreckage. However, I could not feel at ease; it was as if a storm was brewing in the background.“Serena,” Rachel’s voice called for me from behind. I turned to see her walking towards me with a basket of herbs in her hands. Her cheeks were red, and I could not even let myself not notice how she was looking at Zone, who was busy with strengthening the outer line of defence.“Rachel,” I said with a smile, pointing at Zone. “You should go talk to him.”She blushed, negating the statement with subtle head movements. “I am overwhelmed by the work load at the moment.”“Rachel,” I said in a stern

ARDAN’s PoVIt was a silent night. Evelyn started to wake up in my arms as I was swaying her back and forth. Her baby-like hands clutched the collar of my shirt. As small as she was, she had no idea the burden she had on her back.“You are safe,” I murmured, tracing the brim of her cheek with my thumb. “Oh, I’ll see to it that you remain like that.”She only breathed gently and deeply in the silence of the night. At that moment, our world was peaceful, as if the turbulences and tragic events which had occurred in the past several months were just a nightmare.That moment did not last long and it was ruined by the appearance of Draven in the tent. He looked rather serious and did not have the usual relaxed character that he usually possessed.“What is it, Draven?” I asked, although deep inside I didn’t know if I really wished to hear what they had to say.He paused for a moment, staring blindly before his gaze shifted to Evelyn. “It’s about your daughter.”Instantly, I stiffened and my
