LaiaI stand in line with the others my age, and some a little older. The almost-19-year-olds who weren’t old enough last year this time, stand in the beginning of the line. Maybe they feel more excited than I do… or maybe they’re just as nervous. All of us wait for the Moon Ritual to begin.Elder Nyssara, wearing her ceremonial robes, chants in a self-important voice, "Once a year, under the sacred Winter Solstice Moon when the Longest Night rules the skies, Goddess wanders the earth to bless this Water of Fate. Drink, and if not scorned by the Moon, you shall sense your destined one.".My eyes dart from the elder and the bowl of Water of Fate in her hands to the one person I can’t stop thinking about. Blue eyes lock on me, face cold and demanding my obedience. The line shuffles forward, the girl in the front eyeing the pearl bowl with at least 5 emotions on her pretty face. I rub my sweaty palms on my jeans, my heart in my throat, and look back at him again. His eyes, full of mali

LAIAAround me, the chatter swells, laughter, songs, parents cheering, friends shouting as they celebrate their children and mates. Their happiness mocks me.While they feast, I wait. Arms wrapped around myself, I stand on the outskirts of the party, half consumed by the dark. That’s what I’ve always done. Living in the Pack as charity since our parents died means I eat last, always on the sidelines, hoping there’s enough left to keep Liam and me going.Wolves who accidentally stumble into my corner, lose their smiles, and walk around me leaving a wide distance between us.The elders left the celebration long ago. One long look from Cael and any of them who’d looked at me at all, left without saying a word.Cael… The agonizing pain I feel is like a knife stabbing right into my chest. My heart won't stop thrumming, each beat a cruel reminder that the pain is still there and here to stay.A useless thing. The heart is the most useless organ of all. I should rip it out and destroy it ri

LAIABlue eyes lock on mine, I try to look away, but her gaze holds me hostage. She’s not smiling now.One step, deliberate and intimidating."You touched what's mine... and you know what that means, don’t you?"Lysander is a mastermind when it comes to punishment. Another step closer."But," she finally breathes, lips curling back into a soft smile, "I’ll let this one slide."I hold my breath. Lysander, of all people, seeing me kiss her man and letting it go?No, I brace for whatever’s to come next.My pulse is racing—fifty beats a second, at least."Mistakes can be made after all, right?" Her tone is silky, but her eyes pin me in place. "And you’ll agree with me that it was a mistake… wasn’t it?"Her questioning gaze burns into mine, and I nod before my throat can even form words."You’ll have to redeem that mistake," she continues smoothly, "by going to Alpha Damon’s pack to do something for me quickly."My breath seizes. Alpha Damon. Just the name sends a shiver ripping down my spi

LaiaThey say fate comes in different ways. Funny how mine shows up like a slow humiliating lineup. I'm being stacked with eleven others, blank faces, hollow eyes, and of course we’re being sent to Redmoon. Twelve were taken, twelve must be redeemed. It’s an old rule nobody remembers starting; they just pass it down like fact.Today I’m one of them. Captive. A commodity. A slave, an object to be bought and used. They dress it up with words like “tradition” and “balance,” but it’s cruelty wrapped in ceremony.Footsteps. It’s almost dawn, maybe five in the morning if I had access to a clock. I try to steady myself, to stay goal-focused. Whatever it takes… I’m going. I’ll fetch whatever it is Lysandra needs; I don’t believe in this Moon Relic excuse, and start our life over. I’ll get away. I only hope Lysander holds up her end of the bargain.Footsteps, closer now. Fear crawls up my spine and the vibration in my legs makes them threaten to give.I am so fucking doomed.My logical brain s
