Levi hadn’t said a word since we turned back, and I was glad. The last thing I wanted to do was speak to him.The way we had just gone from an eighty to a zero so fast was alarming. The atmosphere in the car was tense, his hands gripping the wheel so tight I thought he’d snap it right off. But none of it moved me, I just wanted to get out of the car and away from him.As soon as the car rolled to a stop, I unbuckled and stepped out, slamming the door a little harder than I intended. I didn’t want to give him the chance to drag out whatever apology or excuse he’d been sleeping on the whole ride back.But then, a part of me did not think Levi had any plan of apologizing. He said what he said—or rather, didn’t—and he meant it.The cool breeze disheveled my black hair, making it fly in different directions as it blew, adding to my frustration. I tried to hold it down with my hand, turning and groaning, only to see Levi watching me attentively from inside the car, his lips pursed into a th

When I woke up Monday morning, I knew something was different. Something in me. I suddenly had a sense of belonging, exploring Moondew the day before made me want to do better. Made me feel bold enough to want to try.I wanted to stay in this magical world and I was willing to do whatever it took to prove it.I found myself humming quietly as I brushed my teeth, an unfamiliar feeling bubbling in my chest. Confidence. It wasn’t loud or showy—just a quiet pulse reminding me that I had made it through another week in Moondew.And I wasn’t broken.Lola was different too, I could feel it. I felt more connected to her than ever. And above all, I could hear her even though she hadn’t spoken. It sounded like she was encouraging me, telling me we’ve got this, and I believed every word.It was the first time in a long while that I didn’t dread going to school.I pulled on my uniform, brushed out my hair until it gleamed, and even applied a little mascara before heading out. There was a lightnes

It was just the two of us, against them. An Alpha’s son with anger issues and a beta’s daughter who knew nothing about being a wolf.The odds were not in our favor.It was getting dark, the situation getting worse. I pressed my back against the rook, barely breathing as I kept my eyes on Levi. His face was still pale, damp with sweat, and a clenched jaw.“They’re waiting for us to open out,” he whispered, nostrils flaring. “There’s two of them.”I stiffened. “Can’t we wait them out? You’re still weak, we can’t afford—"He sniffed again, his lips curling. “I can take them. But not both at once. I’ll need your help.”My heart stopped in my chest. “What do you need me to do?”He turned toward me, his eyes darkening. “Keep one of them distracted. Just long enough for me to take out the other. Don’t try to fight them…just keep moving. Can you do that?”I nodded, even though my hands were shaking. “Yeah. I’ll try.”“But first,” he muttered, voice grim, “I need to heal faster. The wolfsbane

I woke up earlier than usual to coordinate my outfit. Yes, I was going to be in a uniform like everyone else, but I wanted to look better than I usually did.I wanted everyone to be in awe. I wanted to be worthy of being by Levi’s side.Sunlight was already streaming through the window, the heat from it warming my skin. My body ached less, thanks to Levi's paste, and my mind...well, my mind was filled with a ton of emotions.A fake relationship.It sounded so simple when Levi said it last night. But laying in bed, staring at the ceiling, I couldn’t stop thinking about it. My heartbeat picked up just remembering the way his hands felt on my skin, the way he looked at me like I was something more than just a girl struggling to fit into a world I’d only known for a couple of weeks.He looked at me like I truly belonged, like I was entitled to being Luna, just like the rest of the other female wolves in the park.I hated how badly I wanted it to be real.But it wasn’t. It couldn’t be.We

The sun had fully risen by the time I nailed a clean hit to Levi’s side, knocking him slightly off balance. Not enough to win any awards, but enough to earn a lifted brow of acknowledgment from him.“Better,” he said, nodding once.Sweat clung to my back, and my arms felt like spaghetti. But despite the aching muscles and the early hour, I felt alive. Strong. And not just because I’d finally managed to land a decent blow on the guy who’d been smirking through most of our session.“You’re just saying that to keep me from being focused.”He leaned closer, his voice extremely low, “If I wanted to distract you, trust me, I’d use better tactics.”I waved his words away, but heat bloomed in my cheeks. “You’re so annoying.”“And yet here you are,” he shot back with a grin.A loud cough snapped both our heads around.Three younger pack members had stopped along the trail bordering the field—two guys and a girl. They were clearly watching us, whispering. Like we were a math equation they just
