Kael’s POV Darkness felt heavy around us. It was thick with the smell of wet dirt and blood. Every part of me was on high alert. I wanted to move faster. But I stood still, eyes locked on the creature creeping closer. Amara was right next to me. Her breath came quick, but she was steady. She looked exhausted, but there was something strong in her eyes. Even with the fear, I could see a spark. It made my heart tight. Victor stood a little way off. His face was hard to read, but his silver eyes were sharp, taking it all in. I saw his fingers twitch, ready to react if needed. Then I heard it—a low, growling noise that rumbled through the air. This wasn’t just any rogue creature. It was twisted and wrong, changed by whatever dark magic Magnus had let loose. Its red eyes glowed, almost like it was thinking. It snarled at us, its lips pulling back to show teeth. The beast took a slow step forward, its claws tearing through the leaves and dirt. The air felt electric, thick with tension.

Amara’s POV My heart raced, almost drowning out the sounds around me. I could hear it pounding in my ears. Each breath I took felt sharp and cold as the night air rushed into me. My legs were on fire, but I couldn’t slow down. Not with the danger so close behind. The shadows in the forest twisted and turned, looking almost alive under the pale moonlight. Kael was running next to me. His bright golden eyes were scanning the path ahead. Victor had disappeared into the trees a moment ago. Now, his absence felt heavy like a stone in my chest. He wouldn’t leave us behind. He had to be nearby. Suddenly, a low snarl broke the darkness behind us. A chill ran through me. That sound was a promise—something unnatural was hunting us. I could sense it. It was close. The way the leaves barely rustled meant these weren’t just animals. No, these were hunters. Hunters sent by Magnus. Kael's fingers brushed against my wrist for a moment. The touch was quick but really grounding. “We need to run fast

Amara’s POV A deep chill settled in my bones, colder than the night air. My body still buzzed from the strange energy I had unleashed. I could feel its lingering presence, like static clinging to my skin. Whatever I had done, whatever had frozen that creature in place, it wasn’t normal. It wasn’t human. It wasn’t even a werewolf. Kael watched me, his golden eyes filled with wary curiosity. I could see the question forming on his lips, but before he could ask, Victor’s voice cut through the night. “We move now.” His urgency wasn’t lost on me. The shadows still felt alive, restless. The creatures we had fought were only the beginning. I could feel it in my gut. We weren’t safe. Not yet. Kael shifted back into his wolf form, shaking out his blood-matted fur. His presence was a silent reassurance. No matter what, he was with me. That was enough to keep me moving forward, even when every part of me screamed to stop and make sense of what was happening. Victor led the way through the th

Kael’s POV The air was electric. I felt like I had been hit by a truck. I struggled to get my bearings. Just a second ago, I had been thrown away like a toy. Everything was blurry and chaotic. My eyes landed on Amara. She was pinned to the ground. A huge figure stood over her, blocking my view. My heart raced at high speed in my chest. I couldn’t let her go. Not after everything we had been through together. I pushed myself off the ground, my instincts kicking in. Amara looked terrified. I saw the fear in her wide eyes. She was trying to break free from the creature holding her down. But it was no use. Memories flashed in my mind: the first time I saw a power like this, how it polluted the very air around us. “Get away from her!” I yelled, my teeth grinding together, as I sprinted toward them. The creature turned slightly, its golden eyes shining bright. It stared at me like I was just a curious insect. It wouldn’t let Amara go. Then, without warning, it flicked its wrist. A w

Amara's POV The Alpha's room felt charged, like a storm was about to break. The creepy smile on Magnus's face turned my stomach. He looked like a predator who'd just cornered its prey. Kael jumped in front of me, using his body as a shield. I could still hear his growl, fierce and protective. It was risky, insane even, but for once, someone else was standing up to Magnus with me. Of course, Magnus wasn't the type to let anyone get away with challenging him. He eyed Kael up and down, a weird smirk playing on his lips that suggested he had something nasty planned, something way worse than just yelling. Magnus thought things through first; being a jerk was second nature to him. He wouldn't just lash out. Nope, he'd find a way to make things hurt the most, drawing it out. And I was the easy target. How... touching, Magnus said, stepping back a bit. His hands went behind him, and he looked back and forth between Kael and me. You seem interested in her well-being. How unfortunate. Kae
