It should have occurred to me why they stopped, but I only felt relief. Relief until the ground vanished under my feet.Suddenly, I was hurtling through the air, my heart leaping into my lungs as I sought an explanation for the weightlessness in my body. Wide-eyed, I watched the ground drop into grassy ridges below, the forest teetering on a mountainside that I hadn’t realized I was approaching. Then, in the span of my next heartbeat, my body hit the slope. Agony exploded through me, and I rolled down the incline, bouncing off the grass and rocks. Everything around me blurred together as I made my descent. It felt like it took minutes for me to descend the mountainside, each thump another firework of worsening pain when in reality, it must have only taken about thirty seconds for me to come to a stop in a patch of leafy brambles.I lay there on a ledge, dizzy, as I stared up at where I had fallen from. The faint moonlight illuminated the dragons looking over the ledge, searching for m

Swallowing hard, I left the dying dragon to continue the chase. There wasn’t anything I could do for the dragon, and I wasn’t sure I even wanted to do anything, anyway. Scanning the trees, I spotted the dragons clustered up ahead before they all plunged out of sight. Shortly after, I realized what had brought the chase to an end. The ground suddenly dropped off onto the mountainside, the eastern mountains rising up around us. From the ledge, I watched the dragons soar and strafe through the night, searching for their quarry. My tail rose over my back, swaying as I waited for them to spot their target, but they didn’t seem to know where it had gone.With a few sharp barks, I caught their attention. They wheeled around in the air, their guttural vocalizations expressing their frustration. It wasn’t my place to command them, and I almost stepped back and allowed them to continue searching, but a twinge of pity in my heart prompted me to stand taller. I growled, wordlessly urging the drag

My home was desecrated. It was the only safe place I had left, and now, in this dream which had become a nightmare, not even the safety of home could relieve me of my terrors. Something had gone terribly wrong.The swarm of dragonflies chased me through the trees, enveloping me until I could no longer see. They flew into my ears, clinging to my nose, biting at my eyes. When I opened my mouth, they crawled into my throat until I could no longer breathe. Thrashing, I fell to the ground, feeling myself eaten from the inside out. They were taking over, boring into my skull…I jerked awake with a yelp.Heart racing, I frantically looked around me, only to find the forest still and silent. The sun was directly overhead now, beating down on my pale fur and warning me that I had already slept for too long. My head pounded. My body still felt heavy when I stood. I clearly still needed rest, but with alarm bells ringing in my mind and my body tense with wariness, I didn’t think I could afford t

I found something last night,” I began, meeting my father’s gaze. His expression was unchanged: constant disappointment and underlying anger. With a slow inhale, I continued. “The dragons were hunting a wolf shifter on our northeastern border.”“And?”“She wasn’t just any wolf shifter.”David’s eyes narrowed. He took a step closer, his presence imposing. I wanted to step back, but I held my ground before my father. “Do we know her?”“In a way.” My fists balled up. “I believe she’s Muriel Vale’s daughter. She’s a white wolf with a unicorn horn.”From narrow slits, my father’s eyes then widened. His brows rose into his forehead under loose frocks of hair before his nose wrinkled up in a look of snide amusement. “Is that so?”I nodded.“You’re telling me that not only do we now have Muriel Vale in our grasp, but we have her daughter—a shifter possessing another unicorn horn—right on our doorstep? Things are turning out far better than I anticipated,” drawled David.He wasn’t as shocked a

We don’t know,” said Sebastian. “They have vacated their territory, and we haven’t been able to track them.”“How can you not be able to track them?” My eyebrows rose in disbelief. “They stunk up the northeastern part of Dalesbloom’s borders. Just go there and follow the smell.”This time, Everett shook his head. “You don’t understand. Entering Dalesbloom territory is a death sentence for us.”“Then send the Mythguard.”“We tried. Either we’re attacked, or we can’t track them either. The trap you were caught in—we were hoping to catch somebody from Dalesbloom or one of the dragons,” said Sebastian.“I find it hard to believe you can’t track them down. They’re here. They chased me last night,” I said, my anger rising too. My hybrid beast raged at last night’s memory. I was attacked—and these people were insisting that they couldn’t figure out where the hell their enemies were coming from? “So you don’t even know where they’re keeping my mom?”“Miss Vale, we’re trying our best,” Sebasti
