Selene“I didn't think there would be news so fast,” I said sincerely.“There is,” Izan said, and in case a serious expression was not to be a good thing. "Clare turned out to be a half-breed between a she-wolf and a sorceress. From the skills displayed, she's apparently able to channel a very powerful dark source."I was more surprised.“She's a dark sorceress?” I asked with much dread. “I didn't think she was someone so powerful.”“And she is,” Izan said with concern. "She faked the pregnancy, made Axel believe the baby existed. The kind of power it takes to do that is unheard of, but the worst thing is not that, nor the fact that she managed to escape because she surely had allies within the pack; the situation is more complicated now in Crescent than it was before."“Why?” I couldn't help but ask with concern.“She has planted a magical parasite that is ravaging Crescent's crops and killing animals,” Izan said, and I couldn't believe it. "They know it's her because of her magic tr

IzanWe arrived at the pack without major mishaps.Gabrielle greeted us with a group of guards, and when she saw us, she sighed with relief. However, she had the same reaction that Zanders had when she saw Dayla. She said nothing, just went straight into Marco's arms and kissed him.“Has anything important happened in our absence?” I asked immediately, and my Beta nodded somewhat reluctantly.“Yes,” Gabrielle said. "There is silk sickness in the East. The situation is complicated; they completely closed all borders, and because of that, we made a spread map. Selene recommends closing our borders completely until we extinguish the magic virus. She says the general recommendation is that we all close the borders and apply the same disinfection protocol. Otherwise, we're going to die within months."“That's too bad,” Zanders said. "I'll contact Amelie to let her know all about this; the wizards, like it or not, are the ones who can help us in this battle. They are not contagious and cann

IzanI noticed the drastic change in Selene the moment we got into the van to leave. Her body relaxed, and a look of shock was noticeable in her eyes. She looked at me as if she finally understood something, and I was confused.“Are you okay?” I asked very carefully.“I need to go back to confirm something,” she said and hurried downstairs to return to the detention center.Selene ran so fast that I got scared.I went after her and saw her burst into the interrogation room where Daemon was with his family. I went in behind her to see what was going on, but from the vampire's shocked expression, I knew he didn't understand anything either.“You said my blood was the key,” Selene said fearlessly. “Is it the key to everything?”The question puzzled me, and I frowned. Daemon raised his eyebrows, then saw me, and a sincere smile settled on his lips before he looked back down at my mate. He nodded, confirming whatever Selene was really asking him.She sighed with so much relief that I saw h

AxelAria smiled at me.It had taken me a while to understand where her words were coming from in that talk we had when it all blew up in my face. She tried to make me see reality, and after what Clare had done, I realized how bad it felt to be manipulated. There was no explanation that was sufficient for it.The reality was that, for the first time in a long time, I wanted to be in control of the situation.“The council is who—”“According to the bylaws of this pack, the council does not have the final say in force majeure situations; it is the Alpha, and if you forget, I am the Alpha,” I said firmly before the counselor finished the sentence. That made the entire council go silent. "I know we have all ignored a lot of things since the war, especially the bylaws that the pack is governed by. But from today onwards we are going to do things attached to the law, respecting the lines of command and the responsibilities of everything. We are not going to skip steps or undermine powers. E

SeleneHaving hope was something that had renewed my soul.Seeing Izan's desolate expression finally gone had given me the tools to find strength. If my blood was able to effect a curse, then my blood could help those infected by the silk sickness.The divine magic in my blood could easily remove the magical parasite, so I had to sort out my thoughts on the matter. It was going to be tricky to study with someone infected, but Daemon was right, and I checked with Izan.“Are you okay?” asked Gabrielle carefully. “You have a strange expression on your face; I don't know if you're happy or worried.”“Both,” I said carefully. “I need to study a person infected with silk sickness.”“That's not possible, Selene,” Gabrielle said fearfully.“I know, I know, but the only viable way to find some sort of cure using my blood is that way,” I said confidently. "I could verify that what Daemon said was true, and like it or not, having an infected person in the lab would be a good thing. Or at the ver
