“He’s like a light to him, isn’t he?”Eleanor’s voice came from behind me. I turned to my side, only to see her looking at them with a soft smile on her face. I hadn’t even realized when she had come over.“Ever since the incident,” she let out a heavy breath, “he’s stayed in his room most of the time. The curtains were always closed, and he didn’t want to see anyone. He spent most of his days lying there, sleeping, while I watched him slowly wither away.”She looked at me. “But Leo changed that. Its just like…you know. The best thing that could ever happen to him after all these years.”Her eyes returned to the two of them, and her smile softened. “I know his body must still be hurting, but he knows how sensitive children are. They notice things so quickly, and he’s trying not to let Leo see how much pain he’s in.”“What happened?” I asked, completely confused.Because none of this made sense to me.I had never heard of a werewolf becoming human. Even when we died, we died as one.

After sitting there for a while, with whatever Margaret brought me helping to slow the bleeding a little, I finally threw the bloodied tissues away and made my way out of the house.I headed straight to the new facility that had been built in the downtown area of the pack.It had only been completed recently, after Dad repeatedly begged me to give him a place where George could be kept alive and monitored instead of being executed immediately. I had agreed, but only under my conditions. George was still a prisoner, and the facility had been built specifically to make sure he couldn't escape or cause any more trouble.The place was heavily guarded, with security stationed at every entrance and along the hallways. The moment I arrived, the guards bowed their heads respectfully, and one of them stepped forward to lead me inside.We walked through a long hallway illuminated by bright, translucent lights, the sound of our footsteps echoing against the walls as we made our way deeper into t

AVA’S POV“So, you’re staying there now?”“Hell no, it’s just until…”“Hi, honey.” Clarissa’s face suddenly appeared on the screen, cutting into our conversation as she waved at me.I was a little shocked to see her.And I couldn’t help but thank goddess Gina and I hadn’t started talking about her husband, or what happened the last time I went to her pack because I told Gina I would gist her about everything today.“Hi, Clarissa. I didn’t know you were there.” “A second, please.” She said to Gina, taking the phone from her. Then turned to the screen back, “Yeah, I came this morning hoping to see you and my little cupcake’a face.” She tucked her hair behind her ear as she walked away from the others. “But I heard you two are back together now.”“Who and who?”“You and Cayden of course.”“What? Who told you that?”I glanced at Gina, who was already jumping and waving behind her as if she was desperately trying to tell me not to say anything. Which means she wasn’t the one and Clari

She reached for the tray.“No, thank you.” I turned the tray to my left side. “It’s not as if I’m some kind of fragile princess who can’t carry a tray without breaking a nail.”“Yeah, that’s funny,” she chuckled. “But if anything happens, it’s us who will bear the blame, so let me.”She reached for the tray again and I turned it to my right side, “Oh, you don't have to worry about that. I doubt those old folks would give a single cent about this. After all, I’m just a conniving bitch trying to get everyone’s attention with my son.”Silence.An incredible, suffocating silence filled the kitchen as every pair of eyes turned toward me.I really didn't want to admit that I had heard them. I had planned to walk in, get the drinks, and leave as if none of their words had reached me.But…I just didn’t know how to hold things in.“Oh, I see you’ve been eavesdropping.” Ariana's smile slowly disappeared, only to be replaced by another one that somehow annoyed me even more. “But I think that’s.
