Chapter 21 - The rooftop decision

The days had gone by slowly since Marcus suggested I go to the university, the cheque still sat untouched in a locked drawer in the guest room. Marcus, however, wasted no time. He moved with a restless determination, he was always making calls, meeting people, pulling favors in places I didn’t even know existed. And now, here we were, walking side by side toward the wide, gleaming gates of Oregon University.The campus was bigger than anything I had ever seen. Tall glass buildings reflected the morning sun, their windows facades decorated with banners about innovation and progress. Students streamed in and out, laughing, talking, carrying books or tapping on sleek tablets. Their voices overlapped in a rush of accents and slang I still struggled to piece together.I hugged my borrowed bag closer to my chest, nerves twisting my stomach into knots. “Marcus,” I whispered, “this feels… too much. Are you sure I can do this? What if they find out I’m not….”“You’re Lila Riles now,” he inter

Chapter 22 - My Roommate

Marcus stirred the pot slowly whilst I sat on the dining seat watching the steam rise, the scent of the spice filled the air of the kitchen.Watching Marcus cook has turned into one of my favorite human activities, I wanted to learn how to. I loved how they chopped the vegetables, the sound of soup boiling, and even the way oil hissed on the pan.I was thinking about cooking, not noticing that Marcus had already sat down in front of time now, and for a long time none of us spoke, it was just the soft sound of soup filling the quiet. But Marcus finally broke it.“So,” He said slowly, “you meant what you said earlier? Wanting me to train you?”I glanced at him, playing with the dining mat. “ Yes Sir Marcus, I’m tired of being helpless and weak. Every time something happens to me, I’m either running or being dragged and I no longer want that.”He watched me quietly for a while, “Training is not a game, Lila. It’s filled with a lot of discipline, injuries, sweats and most of the time pai

Chapter 23 - Not just a dream

It took me a while to sleep that night, my body wasn’t used to the room yet and honestly Jeile on the other end of the room kept sighing and tossing around dramatically. Aside all that my mind kept wandering around restlessly, and when I finally drifted off to sleep it wasn’t peaceful and quiet.I had a dream. A weird oneThe dream opened around me like some theater stage. I was in my old cottage and it was thick with fog, swirling silver and ash, carrying the scent of earth and pine. At first, I thought I was alone. My feet pressed into the soil, damp and cold, but the air vibrated with a presence I couldn’t name. Then a voice cut through the fog, it was soft yet commanding.“Lila.”I turned and there she was.Elena.She looked a little bit different, it was a lot even. Her hair glowed as if it caught moonlight even here, her figure serene yet weighted with sorrow. The same Elena who once guided me, and who whispered truths into my confusion. My chest tightened at the sight of her.

Chapter 24 - Dante

The sharp trill of the campus bell echoed through the hallway, a reminder that the day was truly beginning. I rubbed down my simple shirt nervously, holding the notebook Marcus had insisted I carry. It wasn’t much compared to the shiny supplies I’d seen Jeile unpack yesterday, but it was mine, and somehow, that made it enough. The classroom was already half full when I stepped inside. Rows of sleek wooden desks faced a broad chalkboard at the front. The hum of chatter buzzed in the air, light laughter mixed with the squeak of chairs against the tiled floor. Some students leaned close to their friends, whispering about assignments or gossip; others scrolled through glowing screens. I chose a seat near the window, not too close to the front where attention might single me out, and not too far back where I might look like I was trying to hide. The early morning sunlight spilled through the glass, painting warm stripes across the desk. I inhaled deeply, steadying my nerves. A few stu

Chapter 25 - Snooping.

By the time my third and final class of the day ended, my head should’ve been aching from all the information crammed into it. Instead, I felt… alive. Every word, every sentence the lecturers had spoken was as though it had carved itself into my brain, permanent and unshakable. When the others shuffled their papers and groaned about assignments, I sat there almost glowing with the strange certainty that I could recall every detail, down to the tone of the lecturer’s voice.As I packed my bag, Eryndra’s voice slid softly through my mind, steady and measured as always.“Do you know why you’ve remembered every single event that has happened in your life since the day Elena found you?”The question startled me so much that I nearly dropped my bag. I swallowed, lowering my gaze so no one could see how rattled I was. “No,” I murmured under my breath as I slipped out of the classroom. “I don’t know.”The campus corridors were full of chattering students, but for me, their voices blurred into

Chapter 26 - The Questions Behind the Smile

The door clicked shut behind him, and I froze like a child caught red-handed. Dante’s tall frame filled the doorway, his scar catching the light in a way that made him look carved out of something harsher than stone. Those icy blue eyes swept the room once, then locked on me. I straightened, trying to look casual beside the edge of his desk, but the way his gaze pinned me made every excuse I rehearsed shrivel on my tongue.“Did no one ever teach you,” he said, shutting the door with a soft finality, “that snooping is bad manners?”Heat rose to my face. I opened my mouth, then shut it again, fumbling for an explanation that didn’t make me sound guilty. “I….I wasn’t snooping,” I muttered. “I was just… waiting for you to come in… you asked me to see you so I was waiting.”His mouth curved, just barely but it wasn’t a smile. More like a smirk. He just walked past me, his presence filled the office, and he set down a stack of papers on the desk where I had just been hovering. “Waiting?” he

Chapter 27 - Humiliation

My instinct immediately told me to back out, leave her in the room to continue her party. But before I could step out back to escape, her neatly manicured fingers grabbed my wrist.“Don’t just stand there, cousin,” she said, and the word cousin screamed sarcasm. “Come inside. Trust me you'll love it.”The room was packed with students, they were everywhere draped over couches, some dancing in the cramped space, others leaning by the walls whispering into each other’s ears. And every pair of eyes shifted to me the moment Jeile paraded me forward like some item she had picked up off the street.I should’ve left honestly. My instincts screamed at me to turn and go back outside, or even lock myself in the bathroom, be anywhere else but here. But I didn’t want to give her that satisfaction.Jeile let go of my wrist and clapped her hands for attention. “Everyone,” she announced with the ease of someone who’d been born to command a room, “this is my new roommate. She’s fres

Chapter 28 - Training

The next morning, the sun barely peeked through the curtains when I opened my eyes. Jeile was still asleep, spread out on her side of the room, her long hair spread fully all over her expensive sheets. I held my breath as I carefully slid out of bed, making sure not to wake her. The last thing I wanted was another encounter like last night. My chest still ached from the humiliation of that party, her laughter echoing in my head even after I finally drifted off to sleep. I had my bath and I dressed quickly in one of the outfits Marcus had bought me, I tied my hair back, and slipped out of the room as fast as I could. The hallway was quiet, most students were either still tangled in their blankets or nursing hangovers. I let out a breath of relief, hugging my arms around myself as I walked through the empty dorm building and out into the cool morning air. The campus looked different without the chatter of students filling it. Peaceful. The crisp air smelled faintly of dew and freshl

Chapter 29 -My abilities

Marcus called it off for the day so I stood up from the floor where I had been crying, my legs trembled a little, it was not from exhaustion, but from the power that had just spilled out of me. I looked at the cracked floor under our feet still and it reminded me of what I’d done.“That’s enough for today,” Marcus said firmly, his hand resting briefly on my shoulder. “Go inside. We’ll talk.”I followed him back into the house, my nerves were fuzzy. He set a glass of water in front of me at the table, and was watching me until I took a sip. His gaze was steady, sharp, but not it wasn't unkind.“So,” he began, leaning back in his chair, “you want to tell me what’s going on at school? Because that,” he gestured vaguely toward the field, “didn’t come out of nowhere. You don’t just fight like that without something fueling it and then, you burst into tears.”I hesitated, and my fingers were tightening around the glass. Part of me wanted to brush it off, pretend I was fine. But Marcus had

Chapter 30 - I know what you are

I woke earlier than I had in weeks. My eyes opened before the sun had fully risen, and for the first time since coming into this world, my sleep had been dreamless, deep, and steady. No memories chasing me, no shadows clawing at my mind. Just peace.I didn’t even bother to bathe or brush my hair. My body moved before my mind could second-guess, tugging on yesterday’s clothes as if the urgency inside me had been waiting all along. Today was different. Today, I wasn’t just pretending to be human or fumbling through a wolf’s destiny. Today, I was going to learn.“Eryndra,” I whispered, sitting cross-legged on the bed, my bare toes curling against the cool floor. “Teach me. Please. I don’t want to wait anymore.”Her presence stirred. So eager, little one? she teased, though her voice carried no mockery.“Yes,” I breathed. “I don’t want to keep waiting. I want to learn how to use what you’ve told me I have. I want to control it.”There was a pause, long enough for me to wonder if she would
