FINALLY FREE It was finally time to leave this hell hole I still couldn't believe it.Everything was ready.My heart wouldn’t stop pounding, but I moved quickly anyway, helping the girls gather the small bundles we had packed. Genny followed behind me, steadying the younger ones as we climbed. The cave walls were steep and uneven, sharp rocks cutting into our palms as we made our way upward.“Careful,” Genny whispered urgently. “Watch your step.”“I know,” I muttered, glancing back at her. “Just keep them close.”The girls were finally awake, their sleepy confusion replaced with fear and fragile hope. We had planned for transportation — horses, something fast, something safer but at the last minute, we discovered it wouldn’t be possible. “It’s not coming,” Genny had said earlier, her voice tight. “we need to find another way.” I felt it then a bad feeling curling in my stomach. But we might never get another chance If we turned back now, Selene would return soon, and everythi

SAFE AND SOUND.We were all ready,everything had already been prepared the previous day. The warriors had checked their weapons twice.The witches secured the protection charms around their wrists. Damon stood beside the vehicle, giving final instructions. Even the air felt tense like it knew we were walking toward something bigger than all of us.But what truly unsettled me was the dream I had,no It wasn’t a dream ,It felt like a vision. I saw my mum running to get to safety. Hunters chasing her through a forest I didn’t recognize who they were but I could tell by the clothes they put on. I could hear her breathing. I could feel her fear. An arrow pierced through a shield she had created. She fell and just before I woke up, I heard her voice whisper my name. “Maya…” I woke up gasping, I didn’t tell anyone but I knew she was in danger and we needed to act fast. We left Crescent Moon Pack just after sunrise.Roseline had reinforced the barrier behind us, and Alpha Raymond and L

MY FAMILY Damon and I arrived back at Crescent Moon Pack as quickly as we could. He carried my unconscious mother in his arms, her body limp and fragile. I kept checking her pulse on the way, desperate to ensure she wasn’t slipping away from me. Every second felt like an eternity. "Is she okay?" Damon’s voice was steady, but I could hear the tension beneath it. I glanced at my mother again, anxiety rising in my chest. "Her pulse is weak, but it's steady. She’s hanging on." Damon’s grip tightened as he focused on driving, his jaw clenched, eyes narrowed. I could feel his worry, but we both knew that getting her back to the packhouse was the first step.Once we reached Roseline’s house, Damon immediately scooped my mother into his arms. “Let’s move quickly,” he said, urgency in his tone. We rushed up the stairs, and I felt my heart race in sync with my footsteps. Inside the room, Roseline and Fiona were waiting, ready to help. I stayed close, watching as Damon gently laid my mothe

FEAR FOR MY LOVED ONESI couldn’t reach Maya for hours, and with every passing minute, my worry deepened. I had tried calling, texting, even using the mind-link, but nothing. I felt a knot of fear twist in my gut. Not only was she in danger, but so were the kids. I couldn’t lose them after everything we’d been through. The battle was just beginning, and it kept me on edge. The council was relentless. Councillor James and his daughter never seemed to know when to stop, when to give up.They were cunning, and every move they made, every underhanded plot they wove, made my blood boil. They would stop at nothing to get what they wanted.The other day, I had been drained both physically and mentally exhausted from the constant workload and the plans I had been running with the warriors. We were preparing for whatever the council would throw at us next, and I knew it wouldn’t be pretty. But then I came back to my room. The light was dim, and at first, I didn’t notice her. My mind was t

RETURN TO THE PALACE The next morning, we left for the palace quite early. The witches helped us teleport, making the journey so much faster than I’d ever imagined. Within minutes, we were there, arriving in front of the grand gates of the royal palace. As soon as I stepped out of the car, I saw him.Alpha Daniel had been standing outside waiting for us. My heart leapt at the sight of him, and without thinking, I ran toward him, my arms wide open. The moment our arms locked, all the tension, the fear, and the uncertainty I’d been carrying for days melted away. We both cried, overwhelmed by the reunion. I hadn’t realized just how much I had missed him until I was in his arms, feeling his strength and warmth around me. “I thought you wouldn't make it,” Alpha Daniel whispered, his voice thick with emotion. “I’m here,” I replied, my voice cracking as I clung to him. “I’m not going anywhere.” Just then, I saw Liam carefully lift my mother out of the car. My heart squeezed in my ches
