I woke up with a start, my head bumping against the headboard and grazing my arm. A sweet, unicorn-scented mist filled the air from the diffuser on my side table. As I looked around my room, confused and disoriented, I felt a strange, invisible presence. Something didn’t feel right.I glanced down at my arm, and noticed a scratch, stinging faintly from the headboard’s impact.But as I leaned in to get a closer look, the scratch seemed to vanish before my eyes. Had I imagined it? My heart began to race. I could hear the rustling of leaves outside, the song of birds, and even the hushed voices downstairs. Everything seemed to be amplified, my senses strangely heightened.And then I heard the voice again. This time, it seemed to come from deep within my own mind, amused and bemused at my confusion. “Are you always this stupid, or are you just slow?” it taunted.I felt a sudden jolt of energy surge through me.

When I woke up the cell was a bit darker and I assumed that it was either around midnight or early morning.

Luna Arissa has already left,” Eira whispered, her voice shaking with emotion. “She has not yet spoken to the other Alpha, but he is known to be more merciless than any before him. I overheard him telling our Beta earlier today that tomorrow he will set a good example with you. That he will restore our lack to order. ”Eira’s words sent a shudder of fear through my heart.
