CHAPTER ONE: MANGLED BODIES

Blood.The metallic tang of blood on my tongue jolted me awake. I blinked against the harsh morning light streaking through the windows. My vision was blurry and unfocused, but as I tried to move my hands, the sticky liquid that coated them anchored me to reality. The haze I’d woken up with was now gone.The blood that streaked across my fingers and the flesh under my nails were unmistakable.Confused and panicky, I scrambled backwards, my heart hammering in my chest as I tok in the scene before me. My parents’ lifeless bodies sprawled across the floor, eyes wide open, their bodies badly wounded that iot seemed pieces of flesh were torn out, and blood pulled beneath them.I gagged, bile rising in my throat as I stared at the bloody mess in front of me. What the hell was happening?Then it hit me, hard and unpleasant. Today was my wedding day, the day I’d be bonded to the Alpha of the Silverfang pack. Today was the day I was supposed to bind his pack and mine together.The panic had g

CHAPTER TWO: WHAT DID YOU DO, SELENE?

My heart plummeted to my stomach, and I felt lightheaded. I stood frozen to the spot as the the door flung open,“Selene, I…” His voice trailed off and he froze, his eyes locking onto the horrible scene behind me. I watched the color drain from his face, and his eyes darted from my parents’s corpses to my blood stained body. Then his jaw tightened, his eyes narrowed into icy slits. “What is this, Selene?”Rafe, I—” My voice broke, and I stumbled forward, trying to reach for him. I wanted him to understand that I didn’t know what happened. I wanted him to believe me, to somehow look in my eyes, and tell me I was safe, and everything would be alright. “I don’t know what happened. I just woke up and—”But the man staring me down was no longer the Rafe I'd been attracted to. This was Rfae, the Alpha. I knew I was doomed. Ofcourse, his duties to both packs was loyalty as was expected of a wolf, and if he waved this away, it’d be treacherous.“Don’t.” he snapped, jerking away from my touch.

CHAPTER THREE: THE ROGUE WOLF

The growl sent a chill down my spine, and I pressed myself against the wall, seeking some form of shelter. I was taut with fear, and my hands began to shake.My pulse thundered in my ears, and I couldn’t tear my eyes away from the glowing eyes that stood at the window. This was no ordinary wolf. It’s presence felt different, more menacing, and very powerful.My breath hitched as I reached for the small hunting knife that my grandmother always kept under the bed. There was no guarantee that it was still there, since grandma had died two years ago.Thankfully, it was still there. My fingers fumbled around blindly, and then I pulled it free from the leather sheath. In my state, I could not fight, and if I tried, I would probably die from the effort.My wolf was gone, and I was prone to attacks now. I was the wolfless girl, and a target for dangerous rogue wolves. For a moment, I thought about stepping out and surrendering myself to being torn into bits and pieces by the rogue wolf, but t

CHAPTER FOUR: CLUES

“Are you well rested?” The birds chirped with careless abandon as I stepped out of the cabin. Frey was standing a few feet away, staring up at me with a smirk on his face.I turned away from him, dragging my eyes to the scenery at the elft side of the cabin. I closed my eyes and tried to concentrate, on the sounds of the forest.Behind me, Frey cleared his throat, and I heard the floorboards creak as he stepped closer to me.The smell of fresh air and the sound of water rushing through stones, filled my ears. This was one gift of mine that I appreciated, my ability to hear things from afar.I honed in on the sounds: rustling leaves, chirping birds, and that faraway hum of life within the forest. It was peaceful here, or at least it should have been.I felt Frey's presence behind me, but I didn't turn around and acknowledge him. He'd made it his mission to get under my skin, and today wasn't going to be the day I gave him the satisfaction. "I didn't ask," I muttered, not looking at h

Chapter Five: The Truth

I just couldn't let go the feeling.The anklet was hidden so well, and it was as though it had been waiting there for me to discover it.My mother's anklet—she had it on every waking and sleeping day of her life.I could still remember the soft jingle of it when she moved-a quiet reminder of her presence. It was as if some part of her had been left with it, buried in this place.And now, it was in my hands.That moment I found it, I knew my parents didn't die ordinary deaths. I knew I could see things from dreams; it was another power I'd inherited from my mother.Which was why I wanted to know about the man I'd seen in my dream. But how to find him?I hadn't even seen his face.But why would they have her anklet? What were they hiding?I didn't even want to think that they, perhaps, have been buried. Without me.I stared at the glittering curves of the anklet, my fingers following the delicate patterns; the more I thought, however, the more questions arose.Regrettably, there were no

FOR AIR

“Secrets… they always come back to haunt you."The words twisted in my head like a jackknife, jolting me as Frey's eyes held hostage. It was as if his gaze was burrowing straight through me, and it made me suddenly feel self conscious.His jaw clenched, his lips mashed into a firm line, as if he were about to let fall some life-altering bomb. Then, in a flash, the mask fell back into place. Frey shut down again."I know enough," he murmured, voice low and unsettling. "But maybe you're not ready to hear it."I bristled. "You don't get to decide what I'm ready for, Frey.He gave a wry smile, more mocking than warm. "Perhaps not. But trust me, there are some things you can't unknow. Things that'll alter the way you look at this world. and everyone in it."I took a shaky breath, willing myself not to flinch. "Cut the riddles, Frey. If there's something I should know, then *tell me*.He held my stare, and for that flash of a moment, something unguarded flickered in his eyes, vulnerability

LOSING FIGHT

"Rafe, plea… My voice cracked, little more than a whisper above the roar of the water rushing past my ears.I was slipping, my fingers digging desperately into the rocks jutting out from the riverbank, but they were slick, the current ripping me away inch by inch. The cold had found its way into my body was was nowdeep into my bones, numbing my body.Only Rafe's hand, his eyes locked to mine, kept me tethered to the surface. I held on, his grip tight at first, strong.Then his gaze shifted, his jaw clenching as he looked over his shoulder, beyond me."Rafe?" My voice shook, and a tremble of panic slid into it.He hesitated, his eyes darting left and right and his ears perked up.I followed his gaze out, catching a scent on the air that made my stomach twist-the scent of the pack. They were coming, their voices carrying through the trees, growing louder. If they found us like this, with Rafe helping me, an exile, someone who was supposed to be miles away from their territory, it woul

A KISS?

I was drowning.The cold grasp of the river had already seized me, the currents pulling me deeper in its endless dark, my limbs no longer responding to my frantic calls. My body was numb, lungs screaming for air that would not come.Then out of nowhere I heard it. His voice."Selene, are you trying to drown on purpose, or do you just attract disaster wherever you go?"A warm voice cut through the freezing current wrapping around me, and I forced my eyes open, coughing, struggling to keep my head above the water.There he was: Frey Storm-his silhouette cutting a sharp contrast against gray clouds above, a wicked, amused smile curling at his lips."Frey?" My voice came out hoarse, disbelief threading through every syllable. I wanted to say something sharper; to act like I wasn't clinging desperately to the rocky bank, but every ounce of strength had bled out of me. I was barely managing to keep my grip, much less hold my pride together."What's it going to be?" he called down, the teas

Chapter Nine: A Wolf’s Touch

The door creaked open as Frey pushed it with his shoulder, his other arm still wrapped firmly around my waist. The faint scent of pinewood and old dust greeted me as we stepped back into the cabin. My body felt like it was made of lead—every movement sending tiny shards of pain through me—but his hold was steady, his presence unnervingly solid.He lowered me onto the bed without a word. For the first time since he’d dragged me out of that circle of rogues, I allowed myself to exhale. My leg still throbbed from where the claw had torn into it, and when I looked down, the fabric of my dress was dark with blood.“You’re lucky,” he said finally, crouching beside me. His voice was low, but there was something sharp in it, a hint of amusement. “If I hadn’t shown up, you’d be little more than scraps in the woods by now.”“I didn’t ask for your help,” I snapped, though the words came out weaker than I intended.His golden eyes flicked up at me, and a crooked grin tugged at his lips. “No. You

Chapter 10: The Breaking Point

I woke to the sound of boots scraping against the floorboards.For a moment, I stayed still, feigning sleep, hoping the quiet rhythm of my breathing would mask the storm churning inside me. But even with my eyes closed, I could feel it—him. Frey’s presence was impossible to ignore, a restless heat that settled in the air whenever he was near.When I finally opened my eyes, he was leaning against the far wall, arms crossed, watching me with that infuriatingly calm smirk. The early morning sun cut through the cabin window, turning his dark hair almost golden at the edges.“You’re a light sleeper,” he said.“And you’re a heavy watcher,” I shot back, my voice hoarse from sleep.He chuckled at that, low and easy, but his eyes didn’t leave mine. There was something in his stare that made my chest tighten, something that reminded me too much of the way Rafe used to look at me before everything fell apart.I sat up, pulling the blanket around me. “Do you just… stand there and stare at people
