I walked out uncertain.All done? For now, I guess. Aunt, is it hard to meet with a witch?A witch?She looked at me, her eyes furrowed in a thoughtful expression.“Christy… why are you asking about witches?”I hesitated for a moment, then shrugged lightly. “It’s just something I came across in the library.” “A book?” she asked.I nodded. “About Moon Calling. It seems they perform better Moon Callings, they are more attuned to nature so they might have an explanation.”Her steps slowed just a little. “Oh,” she said quietly.I glanced at her. “Is it strange to want to talk to witches?”“No,” she replied, shaking her head. “Not strange. Just… not something people talk about often.”That only made me more curious.“So, is it hard to meet a witch?” I asked.She let out a small breath, like she was considering how to answer.“Not exactly hard,” she said. “But not very common either.”“So it’s possible?”She gave a small nod. “Yes. Graham might know one or two. And Adaira… her pack ha

The sound of approaching footsteps pulled me out of my wandering thoughts. My wolf perceived Aunt Leila and I straightened slightly as she came into view. She seemed neutral and it brought a pang to my chest. Did he say no? My feet rose before she got to me.“Aunt?”She stopped in front of me, her gaze settling on my face in a way that felt a little more observant than before, like she was trying to read something beneath what I was showing. She became so serious that I was worried.Did he say no?For a moment, she didn’t speak.And that silence stretched just enough to make me aware of how much I was waiting.“He agreed to speak with a witch on your behalf,” she said at last.Relief came quickly, almost instantly—loosening something in my chest that I hadn’t realised had been so tense.But it didn’t settle fully.Because of course, it wouldn’t be that simple.“There’s a condition.”The words didn’t surprise me. If anything, they felt expected.Still, I found myself drawing in a s

Chapter 13I focused on each light footfall, the soft crunch of gravel beneath my feet, as we left the house. My aunt led the way, her steps gentle, while I trailed behind, a mix of nerves and uncertainty swirling in my stomach like a restless storm. I would meet Alec and his parents. My parents would meet Alec's parents. The weight of all the negative outcomes hung heavy in the air, thick as the scent of blooming jasmine that wafted from the garden.The exiled Christina would have to go back to the Celestial Moon pack without answers. My aunt's voice broke the silence, "Rowan, my, you are still here?" She sounded surprised, but a hint of warmth laced her tone."Yes, somehow I am." Rowan smiled, then frowned, his eyes narrowing slightly as he took me in. "Is Christy okay?"My aunt's head turned back gently to study me, her gaze piercing, before she threw the question to me. "Christy, are you okay?"Was I okay? My heart hammered against my ribs, a painful thump. A thousand what-ifs pa

Time glided like a bird on Sunday: morning soon became noon and in the twinkle of an eye the sun set softening it's harsh rays and marking the prelude of the next day. I had already arranged the little I had brought so I could catch the bus back to school. So after some encouragement from my aunt, I left for Oslow University.The moment I landed at the gate, my nose started working, picking up all the different smells. I had come back. A lot of students had left for the weekend, so it wasn't surprising that the gate was filled with people. I went through all the screening processes and headed to my dorm.I met Linda there, with Kira lying on the bed. "Oh hey, Christiana. You're back," Linda remarked, noticing me, while Kira looked out of it with earphones plugged in."Yes, I am," I said."Brought anything else?" she asked, standing up to help me with my bags."No, thank you," I replied. I was touched; being 181cm, Linda was tall and big, so people were often intimidated by her, but s
