Kyle Fenwolf's fingertips brushed against my cheek. They were slightly cool. "What's wrong, Nora? You've been staring at the moon for ten minutes."The touch pulled me out of my panic. When I looked into his amber eyes, memories came crashing back.Kyle and I had been together for three years. Ever since he was betrayed and driven out by his own pack, Dad had never decided whether to accept him.That was why we came back this time for the full moon ceremony. We wanted his approval… but Kyle vanished.Everything began the moment we returned home for this very ceremony. The memories from my previous life were still painfully clear. I just couldn't understand.Why did Kyle suddenly vanish without a trace? Why did the pack members who saw us arrive together swear they had never seen him before? Why did Dad insist that I had never had a mate, even though Kyle and I had been together for three years?Kyle frowned slightly, his voice gentle. "Nora, you're shaking. Are you okay?"For

Kyle's fingers slipped through my hair, his thumb gently rubbing my head. "I'm bound to you. How could I ever leave you?"To reassure me, he reached into his backpack and took out a bone flute. It was my favorite gift. He placed it in my hands. "Don't worry too much. Keep this. The moon won't reach its peak for at least another hour."I stared at the flute in my palm, hesitating. In my previous life, this was the exact moment I went to the sacred spring to wash my hands. When I returned, Kyle had been gone, leaving behind only the flute.I felt the familiar urge to rinse the wine stains from my fingers once again, but I dared not leave his side. I grabbed his wrist tightly. "From now on, you're not leaving my sight. Not even for a second."Kyle laughed and promised he wouldn't go anywhere. The moment his words fell, the ground beneath our feet suddenly trembled."Stay calm, everyone! It'll pass in a moment!" said an elder, but the shaking only grew stronger.The torches circling

I stared straight into Elder Thomas' eyes. "Again, you said you're a healer?"He frowned. "Yes, and I work at the Moon Mountain Infirmary. Why?"That was strange. He was clearly the pack's enforcer in my previous life. Why was he claiming to be a healer this time?"Thomas, weren't you an enforcer?" I asked directly."An enforcer?" He appeared even more confused, replying, "I've always been a healer. Nora, are you actually sick?"The others nodded in agreement, murmuring that he had, indeed, always been a healer.I ripped free from the guards' grip and pushed through the crowd toward Helena. "Helena! You're the priestess, right?"She took a cautious step back, eyes wary. "Yes, I am…""Then, tell me this," I said, pointing at the ceremonial items on the ground."When you were handing out the ceremonial wine, someone bumped into you, and the wine spilled on my dress. My mate, Kyle, wiped the stains off for me, and you even said he was attentive. You remember that, don't you?"He

I had to close my eyes and focus, forcing my mind to recall Lydia.Three years ago, when Kyle and I had confirmed our bond, she suddenly left the pack, claiming she was going elsewhere to study healing arts.Could she have secretly been in love with Kyle all this time? I needed to know for sure.I sprinted toward Lydia's home, on the eastern side of the pack territory. As I approached, a light glowed from the first-floor window. I crept silently to the window and peered through the narrow gap in the curtains.Inside the living room, Lydia sat on the couch. Several books lay open on the table, their covers etched with runes that I couldn't understand. A black wooden box rested nearby—a tool of dark magic.So, it was her! Lydia cast the spell!I waited for a few minutes. She finished her drink, stood up, and headed toward the stairs.Seizing the opportunity, I slipped inside her house and moved quickly to the table. I grabbed the books and flipped through them, searching for anyth

Ripples spread across the surface of the sacred spring. A moment later, the water began to glow. A powerful force surged up from the depths and pulled me in.I didn't even have time to struggle before the icy water swallowed me whole. The world around me twisted and warped. Slowly, reality faded from sight.In its place appeared a gray, empty realm. It was colorless and quiet, like a void. I had arrived in another dimension.I shifted back into human form, standing on what felt like solid ground in the middle of the void. The crystal vial was gone. I looked around desperately, with only one thought filling my mind.I had to find Kyle, recover the vial, and bring him home."Kyle!" I shouted into the emptiness. "Kyle, where are you?"I stood up and began walking forward. There was nothing here but drifting gray mist. Time felt strange, like it had stopped moving.Just as despair began creeping in, a blurry figure appeared amid the mist. My heart started pounding. I ran toward it.
