208Alyssa’s PovWhen I realized that I couldn’t hear the warriors’ footsteps anymore, I managed to get up to my feet. The wounds I had gotten were so painful that I didn’t know that I had also been hit by an arrow.I walked back out of the cave and into the woods, trying to find my way to anywhere, somewhere that could become a freedom place for me. A place where I wouldn’t have to be a maid anymore and no one would continue to try to get me into trouble.I continued dragging my feet with so much spiraling through my body. Tears flowed down my eyes, and my heart was beating heavily in sadness. While dragging my feet, Tara’s smiling face kept popping up in my head. I couldn’t believe she was gone, my best friend was gone for eternity.“The one person who has always supported me… why is it that she had to leave this world? Why did it have to be at Lthe expense of my freedom?” I said, sniffling and sobbing gently.It would be worse if my noise attracted people who could steal my freedom

209Alyssa’s POVI didn’t know how long I stared at the wall after he said those words. Pregnant? It sounded strange in my ears. I placed a shaky hand on my stomach and tried to feel something, just anything. But it was flat. Nothing showed. Yet the physician said it was two months old.Tears rolled down my cheeks again. I wasn’t ready for this; not now, not with everything I had lost. Not with Tara gone.“How can this be happening to me?” I whispered, wiping my face with the back of my hand.How could I be pregnant for the triplets who didn’t give a damn about me? It was as if the moon goddess just wanted my bad luck to continue even after leaving the Spring Pack.Alpha Desmond left the room after assuring me I was safe here. That should have made me feel better, but I was still scared. I didn’t know these people. I didn’t know their rules, and I wasn’t sure I could trust anyone.But his words kept echoing in my head.“You have a new life waiting to be born, and you have to be strong

210Clara walked briskly down the hallway, her shoes making soft taps against the wooden floor. Her heart beat a little faster than usual, not from fear, but from urgency. She had just returned from the garden, and the moment she was out of sight, she rushed to find her mistress.She reached Delilah’s door and knocked twice before entering. She had to make sure she wasn’t pissing her mistress off.Delilah sat near the window, brushing her long black hair. The golden robe she wore shimmered softly in the light, and as Clara stepped in, she quickly lowered her gaze and curtsied.“Mistress,” she said respectfully, her voice calm but eager. “I have something to tell you.”Delilah didn’t turn around yet. “It better be important, Clara. You know I hate interruptions during my evening routine.”“It is, Mistress. It’s about the girl, the new one that was brought in yesterday.”That got Delilah’s attention. She slowly turned to face Clara, one eyebrow raised. “The one the Alpha had carried fro

211Alyssa’s POVThe night breeze was soft, cool against my skin, carrying the faint scent of pine and the earth after a long day of sun. My room was quiet, too quiet, and though I’d tried to lie down, rest wouldn’t come. I wasn’t used to this kind of peace, not yet. Not when the echoes of my old life still lingered just behind my thoughts.I got up and quietly opened the door, careful not to make too much noise. The hall was dim, lit only by torches mounted to the stone walls. No one was around. A few warriors were stationed here and there, but they didn’t stop me. Maybe they’d been told not to, or maybe I just looked harmless.I made my way down the corridor and out through the side doors that led into the open grounds.The air outside was even cooler, and the stars were scattered across the sky like scattered salt. The field stretched wide before me, surrounded by tall trees and the silhouettes of buildings set farther back. It was quiet here. Peaceful.I walked slowly, barefoot on

212Alyssa’s POVI rose slowly to my feet, my hands brushing against the folds of my dress as I stood before Delilah. The weight of her eyes didn’t lessen even now that I was on my feet. If anything, it deepened as if standing had made me more visible, more exposed.She didn’t speak right away and it seemed like she was studying me again, this time with a more thoughtful expression. Maybe she hadn’t expected me to obey so quickly. Maybe she was still deciding what she thought of me.But before she could speak, another voice cut through the stillness of the night.“Alyssa.”I turned my head sharply.Alpha Desmond was approaching from the path behind the field. His steps were confident but not rushed. He looked calm, but I could tell from the way his eyes moved from me to Delilah, and then back to me — that he hadn’t come out here without purpose.His presence made the entire field feel smaller. Even Delilah seemed to take a subtle step back.Alpha Desmond stopped beside us, his express

213Alyssa’s POVWhen I opened my eyes that morning, it felt different, not just the air, but something deep inside me. There was no pain tugging at my chest, no weight on my shoulders heavy enough to make breathing feel like a burden. For the first time in what felt like forever, I felt... good.Better than good.I lay there for a moment, staring at the soft glow of sunlight as it slipped through the cracked window. A bird chirped just outside, and for once, the sound didn’t make me flinch or hide under the blanket. Instead, I smiled.I sat up and stretched, letting the feeling of safety soak in a little longer. My room was still quiet, just the way I had left it last night. I moved to the corner, where a large bowl of water and clean linen had been placed. Mira must’ve told someone to prepare it for me again. I made a mental note to thank her.After washing up, I put on the clothes Mira had given me, simple but neat, and brushed my hair with care. Every small act, every ordinary rou

214Alyssa’s POVEverything happened so fast. One minute, I was just catching my breath, still rattled from the strange energy that had filled the forest earlier in the day… and the next, chaos erupted near the edge of the trees.Shouts rang out. Heavy footsteps thundered behind me. Before I could even process what was happening, a rough hand seized my arm and yanked me back hard.“Let go of me!” I screamed, stumbling.The man who grabbed me wasn’t anyone I recognized. He wasn’t from the Grey Moon Pack. His scent was unfamiliar, sharp and bitter, and his clothes weren’t like what the warriors here wore.There were others behind him, too. Strangers. All of them dressed in mismatched armor, eyes cold and focused.I struggled violently, but the man, tall, muscled, only tightened his grip and began dragging me away.Panic surged through me like fire. “No, stop! Help!”I kicked and twisted, trying to dig my heels into the ground, but it was no use. He was too strong.Then, just as I starte

215Alyssa’s POVThe darkness still surrounded me where I was; endless and silent.My body felt like it was suspended between clouds and shadows, floating through a place with no beginning, no end. The air was cold, yet it didn’t sting. There was no wind, no ground beneath me, just emptiness until I heard it.A whisper.So faint I thought I imagined it.“Alyssa.”I turned my head slowly to find out what or who was calling my name. The voice had come from behind me, familiar, soft, filled with warmth. My heart leapt in my chest. I knew that voice.“Alyssa.”This time, clearer and closer. I spun around, and there she was; Tara.I blinked, my mouth parting in disbelief.She was standing there, just a few feet away, dressed in the soft blue gown I remembered. Her hair floated gently around her shoulders, catching a light that didn’t exist. She looked the same, kind, calm, radiant.“T...Tara?” I whispered.Tears filled my eyes as I stumbled forward, my breath catching.“It’s really you!” I

216Back at Spring Park, the air inside Ryan’s room felt heavier than usual. The curtains were drawn back to let in the afternoon light, but the brightness did little to lift the tension that filled the space. Reynold paced across the polished floor, arms crossed, while Reece sat at the edge of the bed, fingers tapping against his thigh. Ryan leaned against the wall by the window, eyes fixed on the horizon beyond the pine trees.None of them spoke for a moment. The silence between them was filled with their mutual annoyance.“I still don’t understand how she slipped through our fingers,” Ryan muttered at last, clenching his jaw. “She was weak. She could barely stand the last time I saw her.”“She was weak, but she was desperate,” Reece said flatly. “We underestimated how far desperation can push someone.”“She should never have had the chance to run,” Reynold growled. His voice was sharp and cold. “Everything was calculated. She was watched, wasn’t she?”Ryan scoffed. “Clearly not wel

217After Ingrid left the room, silence returned once again, but this time, it was heavier.Reynold stood by the window, arms crossed as he stared out into the thinning light. Reece leaned against the wall, deep in thought. Ryan was still by the bed, pacing slightly, like his thoughts were chasing him.“She was right,” Reynold muttered eventually, breaking the stillness. “We’ve spent too much time thinking about someone who doesn’t even belong here.”Reece nodded slowly. “We let her get in our heads.”“But Ingrid…” Reynold’s voice softened, still facing the glass. “She’s always been here and she’s our Luna.”Ryan turned to them, his brows furrowed. “If we stop searching for Alyssa,” he asked, “if we really give up… will we be satisfied with Ingrid? Will she be enough for us?”They all knew how having sex with Alyssa made them feel fulfilled, and maybe that was their true fear that they would feel incomplete if they couldn’t find Alyssa.Reece didn’t hesitate. “Yes. Of course we will.”
