I looked at myself in the mirror one more time. My “Lisa” persona was complete. Humberto had done an amazing job, as always, but still, when I looked at myself, I felt like something was missing.“Aunt Lisa, you need to smile!” Caroline reminded me. She was right—Lisa was spontaneous and open. I just needed to let that energy flow, and everything would fall into place.I sat down in the chair while Liliane finished adjusting the camera. Who’s the best wolf in the world? I asked Lisa silently, letting her joyful energy take over as I began the intro.“Hey, it’s Lisa here, talking to all of you. My dear fans, you’re amazing! You’ve turned my whole team upside down!” I let out a soft laugh, giving the chair a gentle spin before leaning a little closer to the camera. “We got so many messages it’s impossible to answer them all, but don’t be sad if your email doesn’t make it into the Lisa Answers segment. I’m reading as many as I can, and I’ll carry each and every message in my heart.”I be

Everyone was already in position—except me. Patrícia had to come over and explain why they had surprised me like this.“This is too much…” I whispered to her. I didn’t want to scare Caroline, and something told me they were counting on that—they used her presence to push me into a corner.“No way! Lisa, your songs are perfect. Everyone we’ve played them for says the same thing. They don’t need any tweaks or anyone else’s approval. So, we all agreed—there’s no reason to delay this anymore. Today, we’re officially starting to record the first tracks of your new album. Now go out there and kill it, like you always do!”“Auntie, are you really recording the songs? That’s awesome!” Caroline jumped into the conversation. “I really want to hear them!”“Yes, it’s amazing!” Patrícia said, smiling warmly at her. “We’re going to watch your Auntie Lisa record from over there, okay?”With so many people counting on me, there was no backing out. Come on, Lisa! I told myself, trying to get into the

“Eliza, time to get up!” Liliane’s voice was insistent. It was my sixth day in Heington, and I was so exhausted I didn’t even want to get out of bed.“Haven’t you sucked enough of my life force already? I’m gonna die young at this rate,” I muttered, rolling over to the other side.“Caroline’s waiting for you to have breakfast. You’re really gonna let her starve?”“That’s just low!” I groaned, sitting up in bed and stretching. With an argument like that, there was no way I wasn’t getting up.I yawned nonstop while eating breakfast. Liliane walked me through the morning schedule, which mostly involved filming more Lisa Answers videos. I’d already gone through hundreds of messages over the past few days to pick out some more questions.The last takes for Lisa Answers went off without a hitch, and just as I was celebrating that we were finally done, Liliane completely ruined the vibe.“What are you doing?” I asked as she grabbed my phone, asking me to unlock it and whining about how I had

We had lunch at the food court and then headed to the movies to pick a film. I let Caroline choose, and she went for an adventure movie over an animated one. William offered to buy the tickets—probably figuring that if I did it, I’d pick his seat as far away from mine as possible. He was absolutely right. I totally would’ve.“Let’s go!” he called, walking up to us with a bucket of popcorn in hand. He handed it to Caroline before we entered the theater. While she was distracted with the popcorn, William boldly placed one hand on my back as we walked to our seats.“I’m sitting in the middle,” William told Caroline.“But then I won’t be next to Auntie,” she complained.“Do you want to sit next to your brother or your aunt?” William asked seriously.“Why does she have to choose?” I cut in. “She should sit in the middle—then she can be next to both of us.” It was the best way to keep William away from me.“No way! I want to know who she’d rather sit with. You or me!” William was being stub

If I said that William and Lorraine dating didn’t affect me, that’d be a damn lie. I couldn’t fool my wolf’s feelings, and I sure as hell couldn’t go back in time and stop myself from coming to Siram and meeting him.I cried most of the night, curled up in the Mysterious Man’s cloak. Wrapped in that cloak, I sought comfort—the sense that someone was there, that I wasn’t alone, that everything would be okay. I just wanted to sleep for a bit, to find a moment of peace, but I couldn’t. I gave up trying and forced myself to run. The pain wasn’t going anywhere, no matter how much I cried.The rushing water—that place that had become my sanctuary—was exactly where I needed to be.“Mr. Mysterious, were you waiting for me?” After a week apart, he was there—on the exact day I said I’d come back. “You have no idea how much I worked during that trip…”I started telling him everything that had happened while I was gone—the good and the bad. I didn’t have secrets from him anymore, and opening up a
