LILA’S POVPain didn’t come all at once.It came in waves.Slow. Crushing. Relentless.Like something inside me was being torn apart piece by piece, and no matter how tightly I tried to hold myself together, it kept slipping through my fingers.I woke to silence.Not the peaceful kind.The empty kind.The kind that tells you something is missing before your mind can even catch up.My chest tightened.Something was wrong.Something was..My eyes snapped open.Stone walls.Cold floor.Iron bars glowing faintly with runic symbols.A cage.Again.A sharp breath tore from my lungs as I pushed myself up too fast, dizziness crashing into me instantly. My vision blurred, my body trembling like it didn’t fully belong to me.“No…” I whispered.Memory slammed into me.The forest.The battle.My twin.The shadows swallowing my wolves.Nathan!“Nathan!” I tried to stand, but my legs buckled, sending me crashing back down.Pain flared through my ribs like fire.My power responded instantly.Golden

LILA’S POVSilence settled after my words.Not the kind that calms.The kind that presses in, heavy and suffocating, like the world itself is holding its breath waiting to see what breaks first.We end this.The words still echoed in my head, sharp and final.I didn’t regret them.But I felt them.In the way the air shifted.In the way the runes along the walls flickered.In the way they looked at me.All four of them.I turned slowly, meeting their gazes one by one.Ethan.Marcus.Callum.Davian.Four Alphas.Four mistakes.Four pieces of something I had lost… and maybe never truly understood.And yet..The bond, broken as it was, still lingered.A ghost under my skin.Marcus was the first to move.He stepped closer to the barrier separating us, his presence heavy, grounding, overwhelming in a way that used to make me feel safe.Now… it just made my chest ache.“You’re not facing her alone,” he said, voice low, firm.I let out a quiet, bitter laugh.“Isn’t that ironic?”His brows pull

LILA’S POVPain.It hit without warning.Sharp. Violent. Consuming.I doubled over, a strangled gasp tearing from my throat as something inside me snapped.Not physically.Something deeper.Something connected.“Lila!”Callum’s voice sounded distant, like it was underwater.My hands slammed against the ground as my entire body trembled. Energy surged violently beneath my skin, golden light flickering uncontrollably, spilling out in bursts that made the runes on the walls flare wildly.“No… no” I choked.This wasn’t random.This wasn’t just my power.I could feel it.Fear.Pain.Rage.Not mine.Sara.My head snapped up, eyes blazing gold.“Sara…” I whispered.Something was wrong.Something was happening.And I wasn’t there.The realization hit like a blade to the chest.“They’re under attack,” I said, my voice shaking despite the power roaring through me.The quadruplets went still instantly.“What?” Marcus growled.I clutched my chest, gasping as another wave hit me.This one stronger.

LILA’S POVThe crack echoed again.Louder this time.Sharpening the silence into something dangerous.I didn’t move at first.Didn’t breathe.Didn’t blink.Because I could feel it now.Not just my power.Not just the bond.Something older.Something buried deep inside my blood, now awake… stretching… hungry.“You felt it too,” I said quietly.My voice didn’t sound like mine anymore.Too steady.Too calm.Too… controlled.The quadruplets didn’t answer immediately.They were watching me.Not like before.Not with guilt.Not even with longing.This was something else.Caution.Marcus was the first to speak.“What just happened to you?”I lifted my gaze slowly, meeting his eyes.“I stopped running from it.”The words settled heavily in the room.Callum took a step forward, concern flashing across his face. “Lila… your energy it’s different.”“I know.”Golden light flickered at my fingertips.But beneath it…something darker pulsed.Quiet.Waiting.Davian noticed.Of course he did.His eyes

LILA’S POVThe smoke from the camp’s smoldering ruins clung to the trees like a shroud, a harsh reminder of how close we’d come to losing everything. The air was thick with dust, burned wood, and the metallic tang of blood, and every inhale left a bitter taste in my mouth. I knelt among the scattered, trembling bodies of my mates, hands glowing faintly as I swept over wounds, whispered healing energy into broken bones and scorched skin.“Sara… you’ll be alright now,” I murmured, gently lifting her hand. Her fingers curled weakly around mine, eyes wide, haunted, but alive. Alive. That was all that mattered.Marcus crouched nearby, surveying the damage, eyes narrowed in fury. “This is worse than I thought. Some of our defenses held, but they targeted the weakest points deliberately. Whoever planned this… they knew exactly how to hurt us.”I swallowed hard. His words were accurate, and yet… I could feel it deeper. Not just strategy. Intent. Malice. My sister. Ryker. They weren’t just att
