The Impossible Choice

I stared at Tessa’s terrified face on my phone screen. Her eyes were red. Swollen from crying. A bruise darkened her left cheek.My best friend. The girl who’d helped me move into my dorm. Who’d listen to me panic about meeting Lycian’s family? Who’d been there for every moment of my old life.Now tied to a chair. Bleeding. Scared. Because of me.“What’s wrong?” Lycian’s voice cut through my spiral. He sat up. Eyes finding mine in the darkness. “I feel your panic through the bond. Talk to me.”I couldn’t speak. Just handed him the phone.His expression went from confusion to rage in seconds. Gold flared in his eyes. His hands clenched. “When did this come?”“Just now.”“We call the pack. Trace the location. Go in with full force.”“They said come alone. Tell no one. Or they start sending pieces.” My voice cracked. “I can’t risk her. Can’t let her die because I told someone.”“It’s a trap. Obviously. They want you isolated. Vulnerable. Easy to capture.” He stood. Started pacing. “We’re

Silver Light in Darkness

The floor didn’t just explode. It disintegrated.Concrete crumbled beneath us. Metal screeched. We dropped through darkness. Bodies falling. Wolves yelping. The sound of impact echoed as pack members hit the ground floor.I couldn’t shift back. Couldn’t move. The silver bullets were still lodged in my wolf form. Burning. Spreading poison through my bloodstream.Lycian twisted mid fall. His body was positioned under mine. Taking the impact. We hit hard. His grunt of pain vibrated through the bond.Dust filled the air. Thick. Choking. I coughed. Tasted blood and concrete.Above us, Thornheart’s laughter echoed. “Did you really think I wouldn’t have contingencies? Backup plans? I’ve been doing this for forty years.”Footsteps on the floor above. She was leaving. Taking her wolves. Abandoning us in the collapse.Elowen, Lycian’s voice filled my head. Stay with me. Don’t you dare die on me.The silver poisoning spread. My vision darkened at the edges. My heart beat too slowly. Too weak.I

AN ARMY OF THE DEAD

“That’s impossible.” My voice came out strangled. Wrong. “Clara is dead. We buried her. I saw her body.”Lycian took my phone. Watched the video. His expression darkened. “It looks real. Recent. She’s breathing. Alive.”“It’s a trick. Manipulation. They’re using old footage. Editing. Something.” But my hands were shaking. Because deep down, I knew. The Collective didn’t bluff. Didn’t fake. Every psychological weapon they used was real.Elena leaned over. Watched the video loop. “The time stamp is from yesterday. And that facility. I recognize it. That’s the main research center. Where they keep their most valuable assets.”“She died from poison. In the hospital. We all saw it.” I grabbed the phone back. Stared at Clara’s face on the screen. Pale. Peaceful. Tubes running into her arms. “How could she be alive?”“Induced death.” Dr. Rivera appeared in the doorway, her expression grim. “It’s a technique the Collective developed. Slows the heart to almost nothing. Stops brain activity to

Into the Wolf’s Den

“Drive faster.” My voice was tight. Controlled. But inside, panic screamed. Clara was awake. Being experimented on. Suffering. Because I wasn’t there yet.Lycian pressed the accelerator. The SUV flew down the mountain road. Trees blurring past. Gravel spraying. “We’re still twenty minutes out. Going any faster and we crash.”“Then we crash closer to the facility.” I pulled out weapons. Checked ammunition. Silver bullets. Regular bullets. Knives. Everything we might need. “She’s awake. Scared. Alone.”“I know.” His hand found mine. Squeezed. “We’ll get her. I promise.”Through the bond, I felt his determination. His refusal to fail. It steadied me. Reminded me I wasn’t alone.The facility appeared as full dark hit. Massive concrete structure built into the mountainside. No windows. No obvious doors. Smooth gray walls and a single entrance guarded by four wolves in tactical gear.“That’s more security than the blueprints showed,” Elena said from the back seat. “They’re expecting us.”“G

Erased

Pain wasn’t the right word. The pain was too small. Too human. This was something else. Something that reached into my mind and tore pieces away.The chemical burned through my bloodstream. Found my brain. Started reshaping. Rewriting. Erasing.Fight it, my wolf snarled. Don’t let them take us.I tried. Pushed back against the invasion. But the drug was designed for this. Designed to break Moonsilver wolves. To override our natural resistance.Memories started flickering. Fading. My childhood with Clara. Meeting Lycian. Our wedding. Everything that made me who I was. Disappearing like smoke.No. Not smoke. Being locked away. Buried deep where I couldn’t reach. Couldn’t access. I couldn't remember who I was.Dr. Rivera’s face swam above me. Blurry. Distant. “Don’t fight it. Fighting makes it hurt more. Just let go. Let us remake you into something better. Something perfect.”Better. The word echoed. Twisted. Became something else. Obedient. Controlled. Theirs.Through the pain, through

Fractured

“No.” Lycian’s voice was flat. Final. “You’re not going. Not after what just happened. Not while you can’t even remember who you are.”“Dr. Rivera knows what drug they used. How to reverse it?” I stared at the video. The woman is bleeding. Terrified. “If Thornheart kills her, I lose my only chance at getting my memories back.”“There are other ways. Other doctors. Other solutions.” He tried to take the phone. I pulled it away. “Elowen. Please. Listen to reason.”“Reason says we need her alive. Need her knowledge.” I stood. My legs are shaky but holding. “I’m going.”“Then I’m going with you.” He moved to block the door. “No arguments. No negotiations. We go together or not at all.”Through the bond, I felt his determination. His absolute refusal to let me walk into danger alone. Again. It should have annoyed me. Should have felt controlling.Instead, it felt safe. Like having someone who cared enough to fight for me. Even when I couldn’t remember why that mattered.“Fine. Together.” I

The Bond That Remains

I woke to white walls. White ceiling. White everything. Clinical. Cold. Empty.My wrists were strapped to a bed. Leather restraints. Tight enough to hurt. My ankles too. Completely immobilized.A monitor beeped beside me. Steady rhythm. My heartbeat. Proving I was alive even when I didn’t feel like it.The door opened. Thornheart entered. She looked different in person. Older than her voice suggested. Tired. Like carrying the weight of the Collective for decades had worn her down.“You’re awake. Good. We have much to discuss.” She pulled a chair beside the bed. Sat. Relaxed. Like we were friends having coffee. “How do you feel?”“Where’s Lycian? Where’s Elena?” My voice came out hoarse. Scratchy.“Alive. Barely. We’re treating their silver poisoning. Keeping them stable.” She checked the monitor. “You care about them. Even without your memories. Interesting.”“Let me see them.”“Soon. After we talk. After you understand your new reality.” She folded her hands. Professional. Calm. “You

Moonsilver Fury

The first soldier through the door didn’t see me move. Just felt my fist connect with his jaw. Heard the crack. Dropped before his brain registered what happened.The second was smarter. Raised his gun. Aimed center mass. Finger on the trigger.I shifted. My silver wolf is faster than bullets. Faster than thought. His shot went wide. Embedded in the wall where I’d been standing.My jaw found his arm. Clenched. Bone snapped. He screamed. Dropped the gun. I released him. Moved past. Didn’t kill. Didn’t need to. Just needed them down. Out of my way.Where is he? I thought about the bond. Reaching for Lycian. Tell me where you are.Basement level. Cell block C. His voice was weak. Strained. Don’t come. It’s too dangerous. They’re waiting for you.Let them wait.I ran through the corridors. Following the bond. Following the pull that led me to my mate. My other half. My everything.More soldiers appeared. I didn’t slow down. Just tore through them. Claws and teeth. Pure wolf instinct is ta

Containment

The explosives were everywhere. Attached to support beams. Load-bearing walls. Foundation pillars. Designed to bring the entire facility down. Bury everyone inside.Five minutes.I couldn’t disarm them. Thornheart was right about that. The wiring was complex. Professional. Tamper-proof.But I didn’t need to disarm them. Just redirect the blast. Channel it away from the exits. Give everyone time to escape.I placed my hands on the nearest beam. Let silver light flow through it. Into the concrete. Into the steel. Reinforcing. Strengthening. Creating a barrier between the blast and the fleeing prisoners.The power drained fast. Too fast. I’d already used so much breaking free. Fighting through soldiers. Healing from silver bullets.We can do this, my wolf urged. We’re stronger than we know. Stronger than they made us.What if I’m not strong enough? What if I fail?Then we fail trying. But we don’t give up. Never give up.Four minutes.I moved to the next beam. Then the next. Creating a

Coming Home

The estate looked different. Smaller somehow. Like nearly dying made everything else shrink in comparison.Pack members flooded out before we’d even parked. Faces I recognized. Names I’d fought to remember. All of them are watching. Waiting to see if their Luna had survived.Clara pushed through the crowd. Tears are already streaming. She grabbed me the second I opened the door. Held on like I might disappear.“You’re alive. You’re really alive.” Her hands checked me over. Looking for injuries. For proof this was real. “They said you were captured. That Thornheart had you. I thought I’d lost you again.”“I’m okay. We’re all okay.” I hugged her back. Breathed in her familiar scent. Lavender and home. “How are you feeling? The enhancements they gave you?”“Gone. Purified. Whatever you did before they took you, it worked.” She pulled back. Looked at Lycian. At the blood still covering him. At how he leaned on me for support. “You’re hurt. Both of you. Inside. Now.”She herded us toward t
