ASTRID'S POVI tossed and turned in bed, unable to get some rest.My chest tightened with fear even in sleep. I was running. Fast. With purpose.The forest was dark, shadows flickering around me like claws reaching out to grab me. My feet stumbled over roots and uneven ground that seemed to tear at the soles of my feet, my breath ragged. Something was chasing me. No matter how fast I ran, I could feel it behind me— so close, reaching out to grab me.Leaves whipped across my face as I tried to run through closely packed trees. Branches tore at my clothes. I couldn’t stop. I didn’t dare stop.A voice echoed faintly behind me, but I couldn't make out the words. It didn’t sound threatening… it sounded familiar. I turned my head to look, just for a second and that was all it took.My foot caught on something and I fell.Hard.The world spun as I rolled down a slope, dirt filling my mouth, leaves stuck in my hair. I tried to scream, but no sound came out. My body hit the bottom of the slope

LOGAN'S POV“What do you mean the Alpha almost killed her?” Lucas sounded furious as I leaned against the wall in his study.Landon was reclining on the chair, admiring the blade in his hands as he watched the blade catch the sun while he marvelled at it.“I mean… the goblet was with poisoned wine. I just had a flash that she was about to drink it and that was all” I shrugged, pushing myself off the wall.Landon looked up at that, pointing the dagger's tip at me as though it were his finger. “Didn't you say you couldn't use your powers anymore?” He asked skeptically.I couldn't. He was right. What happened today was a glitch…it had to be.“Yeah” I admitted. “I don't know how it happened”Lucas looked at Landon in shock but Landon seemed to be thinking of something else also. My lips parted as I realized the reason behind his hesitance. “No way…” I muttered.A grin spread his lips instantly. “Yeahhh”I scoffed in amazement and strided over to him, my mouth agape as I clapped his should

ASTRID'S POVThe silence that followed was defeaning and I opened my mouth to say something but he beat me to it.“You came back with the triplets and suddenly, a foreign thing enters the forest?”I crossed my arms and straightened up. “Yeah, so? You do realize that the triplets live in this same forest, they are not responsible for whatever is in it”Michael looked almost annoyed at my words but he tampered it down with a deep sigh. “Not my point, Miss Miller. Look, all that matters is that something is in this forest and it's not supposed to be there, it's threatening the security that was given to us by the High Lords and goddess. The attack is one thing but with the magical barrier being tampered with? We're going to be fighting a losing battle”There was something about the way he said it that made me instantly start thinking. “Did you tell the Alpha yet?” My mind wandered back to Ren.“Not yet. I want to be sure of this first. Think you could get information on this?” He tapped

ASTRID'S POVThis was a terrible idea.I knew that much as I tugged at the reins to the Chestnut brown horse that I had rode.“Haymitch,James… Take the southern border and report here in an hour” Ren ordered the two guards who had accompanied us.They nodded, hit the flank of their horse lightly before riding off to the opposite directionㅡ which meant we were alone.“You're silent” Ren climbed down from his horse in one swift swing of his legs, his hand going out to pat the horse.I did the same, ignoring his heated look to see if I could handle myself. “You haven't given me much material”I gave a quick sweep of the environment, my gaze fixed on the distance. “Doesn't seem like anyone has been around the borders yet” I pointed out.He didn't answer me but I heard dry leaves crunching under his boot as he approached me from behind and almost immediately, my heart rate spiked up.“I think we're…safe then” He mumbled. “So… the triplets, huh? Lucas perhaps?” There was an undertone of sli

ASTRID'S POVAbout 30 minutes later of pacing about Lucas's study, he and Landon walked into the room, now wearing clean clothes with their hair still slightly damp from the shower.Landon crossed the room in a few steps and collapsed on the couch beside Logan who had been silent despite being in here with me for the last 30 minutes.“Okay…” Lucas clapped his hand, a small smile on his face.I stopped pacing about and crossed my arms. “Now, where were we? Oh right, the part where I said no”Landon raised a hand almost immediately and Lucas turned to him. “Yes, Landon?”“I say we give her a little shaking” He grinned slightly, his gaze fixed on me.My lips parted slightly in shock and I pointed a finger at him. “Did you just suggest threatening me?” My eyes were wide.He shrugged and looked at Lucas. “C'mon…”Lucas palmed himself across the face and shook his head. “Stop scaring her.” He chided then turned to me. “Look, Astrid. We can get what you want but you'll have to get us what we
