Winter's povBrody froze, his bloodshot eyes widening in utter shock as he processed my face under the little light coming from the cracked window. For a second, he went completely still but then a sickening, dark sneer twisted his features, stretching across his greasy jaw like a scar."Well, look at what the cat dragged in," he spat, his slurred voice dripping with malicious satisfaction. "The fucking princess finally decided to show her ugly face."Before I could even draw a breath to respond, he raised the brown paper bag in his hand and slammed it down onto the floor right next to Mom. The glass bottle inside exploded with a sharp, deafening crack. I flinched, my eyes burning as I tried to hold back my terrified tears. Amber liquid and jagged glass shards rained over Mom's curled body the second the bottle fell to the floor. She let out a high pitched fearful yelp and tried shielding her face with her bloody arms as she looked up at him. Her dark swollen eyes were wide with abso

Winter's povI looked back at Brody when I heard the sounds coming from him grow louder. He was practically dying right in front of my eyes. The sight was horrific and should make me feel some kind of way, but the only thing I felt while watching him was a cold detachment wrapping around my chest. The unseen force binding him crushed inward and his ribs creak under the weight of an invisible clamp. His face turned a deep colored purple, veins bulging across his forehead as he suffocated on his own blood. Every agonizing gasp he tried to take was cut short by a sickening gurgle as dark crimson stream down his jaw, dripping off his chin and pooling on the filthy floor. His eyes rolled back in pure agony as he was trapped in his own body while he bled out from the inside.And I felt it. Hell, I felt every single second of it. The power inside me wasn't just surrounding us....it was flowing through me. It hummed in my veins like wild fire, like a fierce, roaring current that burned h

Winter's povThe word hung in the cold air between us and I couldn't seem to wrap my mind around what she had just said. Witch.She was a witch. Which meant I was a witch. A witch....Shock paralyzes me, binding my tongue as my brain desperately fought to reject the reality crashing down on my shoulders. I was a witch. The strange shimmering light, the sudden explosion of power that had just torn through Brod......it wasn't a fluke. It wasn't an accident.It was magic. My magic. "No..." I breathed, shaking my head as the room spun. "No, Mom, that's impossible! Magic would have shown up when I was a child. It doesn't just-""It did!" Mom shrieked, her voice cracking into a manic screech. She stared at me, her eyes wild with a revulsion so deep it felt like a physical blow. "It just did! You killed a man with it, Winter! You destroyed him with a wave of your hand!""I was trying to save you! I was trying to save Sophia!" I cried out, my voice breaking into a painful sob."It's evil!"

Winter's povI pressed my foot down hard on the accelerator, the tires spraying mud and gravel as Brody's old truck tore down the empty road. In the passenger seat beside me, Sophia was sobbing, her tiny body trembling in her wet clothes as she clutched her small hands together.Every gasp she took felt like a knife twisting in my heart."Shh...Sophia, it's okay. I'm here," I choked out, my voice cracking as I wiped rainwater and hot tears from my face with my shoulder. But my words were an empty reassurances that did nothing to calm her screams or quiet the sheer panic suffocating me.I had no money. I had no home. I had no food, no dry clothes and no place to hide. My mother had cast me out into the storm branding me a monster and threatened to hand me over to the werewolf council. I couldn't go back to campus and I certainly couldn't run to Axel or Ashton. If the they discovered what I was....what I had done....My knuckles turned white against the cracked steering wheel as my min

Winter's povI pushed the engine as hard as it would go. Brody's truck was old, so it's only much it could do. Cold sweat trickled down my neck, mingling with the lingering dampness of the rain. In the passenger seat, Sophia's eyes fluttered shut, her tiny head rolling to the side as she succumbed to exhaustion.She was fast asleep.My heart hammered against my ribs painfully. I glanced at the rearview mirror. The black sedan was right on my tail, its blinding headlights cutting through the darkness as it ruthlessly closed the gap between us.They're going to catch us. They're going to kill me and take my sister.A suffocating wave of pure terror washed over me and with it came that terrifying spark deep within my gut. The strange heat flared to life again, rushing through my bloodstream like liquid fire. My skin began to prickle, my fingertips buzzing with an electric overwhelming vibration. It was growing too fast, swelling beyond my control and feeding directly off my panic.No. N
