1- Stolen Identity

Layla. ‘Are you sure you want to do this? Are you really sure you can handle it?’ A voice said in my head, louder than the sound of my own heartbeat as it echoed and resounded.I’d already made up my mind, already steeled my resolve and the moment I snuck out of the pack last night to come to the Wargate Alpha’s academy, I knew right then that there was no turning back for me.“I have to do this!” I said to myself, clapping both hands on each side of my cheeks as I stared into the mirror, looking at my own reflection, except it wasn’t my reflection.Last night, when the moon hung low and watchful and with the multiple guards that roamed around even though it was late at night and they should be sleeping, I slipped through the gates.I couldn’t shake off the memory, the remembrance of how my heart was thundering so loud that for a moment, I’d thought that the pressure I felt was going to wake the entire pack.It was a great ordeal for me, the first time I’ve dared to do something so

2- Beneath The Skin

Layla’s POV.The sound of the morning bell jolted me awake and I felt beads of sweat gather on my forehead when I opened my eyes to see Asher’s probing eyes on me.I froze in place, my heart racing, thudding as I hoped that the herb I’d used to mask my scent hadn’t worn out yet. My mind played back the words he’d said to me last night and I felt something lodge at the back of my throat.“Good Morning, Caleb.” Asher said, his eyes shone bright red and the sound of his voice coupled with that devilish grin plastered on his face sent cold chills snaking down my spine.I am Caleb. I am Caleb. Right here, right now. I am Caleb and not Layla.Before I could blink or even say anything, Asher had already moved away from me, making his way out of the dorm room and I felt a breath I didn’t know I was holding escape my parted lips.When I was sure that there was no one around, I couldn’t feel any eyes on me and despite my aching muscles, I crawled out of bed as I reached into my bag for the poti

3- Blood In The Pines

LAYLA’S POV.“Fuck!” I cursed under my breath when I stumbled over a twig, my heart was pounding so fast that I thought it was going to jump right out of my chest.This is torture. Hell. But the kind of hell I have to endure.The forest pressed in around me, thorns snapping at my skin each time I walked past them and at some point, I thought about giving up even though it was never an option.I could still feel Asher’s eyes on me, clawing at my back and boring holes into every single part of my body, causing me to shiver internally as my mind replayed what happened last night.I knew what it was. I felt it and I was sure he felt it too, so why isn’t he saying anything?“You would never get very far if you keep going that slow!” Asher barked from behind me and I froze as my blood ran cold.He has been pushing me harder than anyone else, barking orders until my muscles screamed, until my lungs felt like they were caving in and I was taking it all.He’s their special student, the stronge

ASHER’S POV.Seeing his eyes widen like that in fear, my wolf shifted, the intense urge to protect whoever this person standing in front of me was overwhelming, almost breaking.There’s no way in hell I feel this way for a man…. This Caleb…. He isn’t—I saw the figure move from the corner of my eyes and I turned around sharply, seeing the person before Caleb did, a blur of movement behind the trees, the faintest whiff of foreign scent.Everything about that scent that hit me was strange, wrong, sharp and worse, too close. Without thinking, I lunged forward, grabbing her wrist, but it was too late as the trainee crashed into us, claws extended, teeth bared in a savage snarl.Caleb’s eyes widened in terror— No, it wasn’t terror but recognition.The trainee swung for her throat but Caleb ducked, rolled and in that instant I saw something crack open inside him, everything this person did was for survival.Caleb shifted, partially, and when I saw the wolf, I felt mine stir. My confusion wa
