Novel & Cerita A Grace Valley Novel Series

Brynn grimaces, and I can tell she feels sorry for me. Suddenly, someone steps into the glow of the fire. My breath catches in my throat, and my vision tunnels. It's him. Alec. I can hear Brynn and Alice talking, but only random words filter in. All I can focus on is Alec's sharp jaw and hazel eyes. They flash in the firelight, almost golden. As I'm staring, he looks through the flames and straight at me. It's like my very soul is being rearranged. He holds my gaze, and once again I feel like he's trying to tell me something.

GRACE P.O.V I will tell you about the great misfortune that befell my life. A misfortune that will stay with me until my bones crumble into dust. The stupidest misfortune that I will regret for the rest of my life began when I was 18 years old. The age of maturity, where during the full moon, young werewolves will meet their mates. My friends in the Moon Pack called me Grace. I was the daughter of a Delta genius who successfully invented the infertility vaccine potion, which had become a frightening scourge for all werewolves.

"First, you lost the vampire and the Grace girl, and now you lose prisoners that should have been guarded constantly. You're making it hard for me to keep you around." My head cocks. The Grace girl? Could it be ... Of course, it's her. Winter Grace. A feverish shiver runs through me. I knew she was at this school, but I didn't think I would get to her until I had the coin, until I had unleashed the ghoul. But the Silver Hunters are after her too. Why? What do they know about her? "They're fast," the hunter says. "They're moving around the islands quicker than we can track them."

“This is an important mission, we need to be focused on the mission. You can’t let your hatred for her to stop you from thinking straight and doing the right thing. Dad said that Maverick had met the last healer tonight, only tonight. And we both know that Valerie has been in this town for months, and she has already resumed work with Maverick. If she was the one, don’t you think dad would have known already? She was at Maverick's party, remember? Besides, she has been around the pack for a while now, don’t you think dad would have found out that she is the girl he has been searching for?” I asked her in a sarcastic tone, trying to get her to remove that thought from her head. Now it’s my tu

Margaret smiled coldly. "And if Emily's new sister becomes a problem..." Claire's eyes glittered. "We'll make sure both sisters lose everything." --- Far away... In a quiet village surrounded by hills... A gentle woman watered flowers outside a small cottage. Everyone in the village knew her as Grace. She suddenly stopped. A sharp pain shot through her head. The watering can slipped from her hand. Fragments of memories flashed before her. a little girl laughing. A silver pendant. Smoke. Someone shouting...

The Alpha raised his hand and the crowd slowly quieted but my heart was beating so hard I was sure everyone could hear it. “Tonight,” the Alpha announced, “the Goddess reveals the bonds meant to be.” I tried not to flinch as I told myself not to hope. Hope had a way of hurting me the most. Names were called one after the other and cheers followed with laughter, tears of joy, arms wrapping around mates and wolves howling in celebration. Then the Alpha looked down at the parchment again. “Valerie.” The murmurs returned instantly and I lifted my head slowly with heat rushing to my face. I felt small and exposed.

Didn’t care for it. There was no version of her explanation that could rewrite what had already been done. She flinched, but I didn’t stop. I grabbed her, shoving her back against her chair. My back hand landed on her face with a satisfying crack before I grabbed her neck, my hand curling around her throat. My claws pressed lightly against her skin, just enough to break it, just enough for her to feel the sting. Her breath hitched. “Grace is in this situation because of you,” I spat, my voice low, dangerous.

he whispered. “No matter what comes next.” Grace rested her forehead against his chest, finally allowing herself to breathe. Outside, the world reeled. Empires cracked. Secrets burned. Power shifted. And for the first time since she’d entered the Hayes family— Grace was no longer surviving. She was standing in the open. Unafraid.

Charlie being a vampire changes our history and her feelings towards me are all a painful past she can look back and smile with no regrets while I was mortal even if I was a supernatural. Death was the natural order of living things and I would face it shortly especially if Rogue brings the prophesy about the war to fulfillment. Grace started to stir in her sleep before her eyes fluttered open slowly. She looked at the ceiling with so much unfamiliarity before her eyes found mine. We remained frozen in our positions before a faint smile panted on her face before dropping. “Eli… jah.” Grace said weakly as she tried to sit up. “Don’t get up.” I said as she fell down on the bed with a soft plop

Vera suddenly asked, catching Grace off guard. “Ah," Grace flinched at the question. "No," she responded with a sad smile, "but I did do something worse, though,” she added. Taken aback, Vera asked in shock, “What?” Grace took a deep breath, her eyes meeting Mrs. Vera’s. She thought to herself, 'Maybe it's time she knew about my past.' Settling into her chair, Grace began to recount her story, holding nothing back. She spoke of the accident that shattered her life, her father's tragic death, her own trauma, and her mother's prolonged coma. She explained how her mother had only recently woken up, which was why she had disappeared for months.
