Selena's PovRaven's eyes glinted as she walked into the room, flashing her pearly whites in a brilliant smile. "I gotta say, Seer you are looking particularly handsome today," she said in that throaty, husky voice that sent shivers running down my spine. She came closer to me with confident fluidity.I felt my surprise surge with her words, and my heart skipped a beat. Raven was flirting with me, and I didn't know how to react. A she wolf disguising herself as a male wolf, I hadn't anticipated drawing any romantic attention.But as I looked into the glittering eyes of Raven, I couldn't but be drawn to her in small ways. She was so charming, energetic, and seriously appeared interested in getting to know me. Her black hair cascaded down her back like a waterfall of night, green eyes sparkling like emeralds in the dimly lit room.I smiled back at her, coolly. "Well, thank you, Raven," I said, trying to sound smooth. "You're looking lovely yourself." I gestured toward a chair near her,

Selena's P.O.V.The more the day passed by, the more and more Raven hounded me to go to the hunt. With eyes aglow with excitement, she would pop up at any time and ask whether I was ready for that big night.First, I tried getting her off my back by informing her I had to attend to healer duties, but Raven was never one to quit and she'd only laugh it off, saying I needed a break, time to have fun.The sun had just about set, and before me again was Raven. But now in her eyes flashed the sharp gleam of mischief. "Come on, Seer," she whispered throatily, "time to prepare for the hunt. I'll see you at the rally point in 30 minutes."I blew a resigned sigh as resignation washed over me. At least, apparently Raven would not be content to let me avoid this hunting expedition, and quite honestly, I did feel a bit like the tide-being swept along."Fine," I said, aloud, in an effort to sound light. "I will meet you at the muster point. But do not depend on me for pulling a lot of weight for y

Selena's P.O.V.Kael led me to the clinic, and I could see that Moonstone Pack workers were busy at work; the hammer on stone walls rang. The sound of sawing-chiseling, the scent of freshly cut wood and mortar wafted to the site.Kael nodded toward the great stone wall, upon which half a dozen laborers were well in hand, framing in the roof of the clinic. "We're making good progress, Seer," he said proudly. "The walls are going up quickly, and we should have the roof on soon."I bowed my head respectful to such skills and industry among these workers, while, at the same time, meanwhile, a boulder of no inconsiderable weight had been winched - with much taking of care - into its correct position. The countenance had buckled now in concentration as these men began their work.Others dug away- creating a well and laying pipes for plumbing the clinic as the ring of the earth as struck by the pickaxes rung in concert with the rumble of rocks that moved.As morning wore on, the sun beat dow

Selena’s POVThe entire room went quiet and all attention was immediately directed back to Rowan. Sighing, Rowan relaxed into his seat, arranging the disarrayed papers on his table. I glanced at Raven who sat beside her brother, her gaze traveling through the elders. I knew that she stood by me but her voice didn't have the impact that I needed. I had to bring everyone else to my side. Lifting his eyes to meet mine, he exhaled loudly and leaned forward. "I know that there is something you're hiding Seer, and I know it is something deep if you're this willing to coerce and deceive the elders in your favor," he muttered, his gaze narrowed and fixated on me. "He's never done anything to deserve such accusations--" "Silence, Raven," Rowan shouted, his voice echoing across the room. "Your love for the seer has blinded you. You can't see what I see."My gaze shifted between Raven and her brother and I could feel the tension between them palpable. Raven's lust for me and Rowen's hunger f

Selena's POV"Selena..." The name fell from Rowan's lips in a soft whisper, his voice trembling with a mix of disbelief and rage. The room fell dead still, the tension palpable as my name resounded in everyone's ears. I pulled Rowan's hands away from my hair-he no longer had his deathly grip on it-and stepped back, putting some distance between us. I half-expected him to lunge at me, scream or curse at me, but he remained frozen, his body rigid and his wide eyes locked on me as though he had seen a ghost. A faint smile played on my lips. "Shocked to see me, Rowan?" I asked, the smile growing as I shout out my claws and pressed then against his chin, digging it further until I saw them break the skin. Yet Rowan remained still, oblivious to the pain and the blood dripping down his neck with his gaze still fixed on me. My eyes left him and traveled slowly through the elders seated in their ornate chairs, their expression a mix of shock, disbelief and fear. Some shifted uncomfortabl
