*** Lyra ***Lunch break already. I sighed, dragging my feet a little. I shouldn’t get so worked up like that. I can’t let my emotions get the best of me.Lyra, learn to control your anger. You’re not like them, I told myself silently, trying to calm my racing heart.Heading over to the café, I spotted my brother Chase sitting at our usual spot. I grabbed a tray from the food lounge and piled it with a few things, trying to ignore the stares from across the room.As I made my way to our table, Chloe suddenly stuck her leg out in my path. But thanks to my enhanced senses, I saw it coming in time and stepped right over it without flinching."Seriously, Chloe?" I muttered, keeping my voice low. "Is that all you’ve got? Trying to trip me like this is some high school reality show? Grow up."I didn’t stop. I walked past her as she stared at me, mouth hanging open like she wanted to say something—but nothing came out.Sliding into the seat across from Chase, I dropped my tray on the table.

The Alpha, Beta, and Council of Elders were in an uproar, debating the defense plans. The bodies had been collected and counted. Twenty-two dead. Eight more are missing. Two children were found clutching each other behind a wrecked stable, too shaken to speak.Richard turned away from the horrific scene, anger and guilt twisting inside him. Losses like this… under his leadership? What would his people think of him now?I should’ve done something when I found out he was in the neighboring pack, he thought bitterly. Now I’m suffering for my negligence.Just then, a hand landed gently on his left shoulder. Richard turned to see who it was.“It’s not your fault,” Fredrick said softly, trying to pull him out of the dark spiral. “If we’re blaming anyone, it should be the evil that came upon us last night.”“Stop fighting yourself, Richard. You’re doing your best as Alpha, and the people know it too. Everything that happened wasn’t in your control.”“But those innocent people,” Richard replie

The midday sun filtered dimly through the carved windows of the Alpha’s quarters in crimson Pack. The heavy scent of jasmine incense filled the room, clashing with the tension that clung to the air. Freda, Luna of Crimson Pack, sat rigidly on a velvet-cushioned settee, her fingers laced over her lap, lost in thought. The pack had been quiet lately.She didn’t trust the silence—it always preceded a storm.I wonder what that son of mine is up to. He better not ruin our plans, she thought.There was a soft knock at the door.Freda raised her eyes. “Yes?” she called, her voice clipped.The door creaked open, and her right-hand maid, Lina, entered, bowing respectfully. In her hand was a sealed parchment, bound in a silver ribbon and stamped with the crest of the Lupari Council.“This arrived for you, my lady,” Lina said softly, offering the letter on a silver tray.Freda narrowed her eyes, already sensing it carried weight. She plucked it from the tray and broke the seal with practiced fin

Lyra’s Pov…“Seriously, Lyra? Is that all you’re bringing?” Chase asked, eyeing her small bag. “You packed way too little. Do you even know how many days we’ll be gone?”“You expect me to bring a whole wardrobe?” Lyra scoffed. “This is enough for me. Besides, we’re going into the wild, not some fashion parade.”Chase tilted his head, giving her a once-look over. “You look different today… a beautiful kind of different.”Lyra narrowed her eyes. “Are you trying to mock me, Chase? Like I’ve got no sense of fashion?”“I would never,” he said, lifting his hands in defense. “Though… sometimes your choices can be a little off. No offense.”She smirked. “No offense taken. Since you know clothes so well, how about this—you take me to a boutique when we’re back and choose some outfits for me.”“Did I hear ‘clothes’?” Ember’s voice cut in, interrupting their banter.“Hi, hi… hi,” Chase muttered, suddenly awkward.I sighed. “Here we go again,” I mumbled under her breath just before Chase pressed

Camp…"Good morning, students. Today, we’ll be starting the real task and the main reason we’re here," the teacher announced. "So, students, arrange yourselves with your partners—the ones the professor paired you all with.""Uhmm, where’s the professor?" one of the students asked."He had an emergency, so he had to return to the mainland.""Is this all the students?""No, my sister and her partner aren’t here, teacher," Chase replied."Hurry up and get them. We need to start now.""Okay," the student responded, and Chase hurried away."I’m sure she overslept... but where is Ethan?" he mumbled to himself.Chase reached the tent and called out, but there was no response."Why isn’t she answering?" he wondered. He looked at the opening leading inside. "Hmm... if she was asleep, this flap would be closed. Or... did Ethan go out and leave it open?"He stepped inside the tent and looked around. It was empty. Neither Lyra nor Ethan was anywhere to be found.That was when it hit him—the roar
