About Ember. The air itself seemed alive with laughter, clinking cups, and the hum of voices weaving together like music. My nose twitched as wave after wave of aromas reached me—roasted meats, fresh bread, honeyed fruits, and spiced wine. Ember stirred within me at once, pressing against my consciousness, her excitement flooding me like sparks dancing along my skin. Meat, she purred, her hunger mixing with mine until I almost laughed aloud.

I link back. I take my time scanning the massive crowd. Finding Piper will be more difficult than it should be, mainly because everyone is wearing masks. My heart stops every time I see a blond she-wolf about Piper’s height. However, after about thirty minutes and a dozen close calls, I start to relax. Piper isn’t here.

Remembering how distant our parents had been in my previous life, I vowed to look out for number one in this life. I was determined to break away from the crazy, loveless family I was born into. I gave Jennifer Scott a chilly glance. "Make up your mind. I'm not going to waste my energy on you." Jennifer, all smiles, was heading off to a junior college in some small city with her boyfriend.

He liked keeping things in the shadow realm, just like me. We often hang out in there together. He likes watching others, and observing them through their shadow doors, just like I did. “They are all getting so big!” Ember’s voice snapped my attention. “They really are.” I sighed. “You okay?” She sensed my sadness.

Enzo is just happy to have all his ‘brothers’ The night air was sharp with sea salt and memory, Enzo stood at the edge of the pier, hands in his coat pockets, watching the shadows dance across the warehouse district.

He hadn’t set foot here in years—not since he chose a different path. A better one.

She nodded once, forcing her breathing steady. Another crash shook the walls. The lights flickered overhead. Ember looked toward the door. “If this is a surprise inspection,” she said, “I strongly object to the lack of scheduling.” Shadows moved under the gap beneath the door several figures.

Only shadows, thick and oppressive. Then the shadows shifted. Ember watched, paralysed by the scene unfolding before her. Isla’s eyes widened in alarm as she realised she was being followed—watched, hunted. The air shimmered with a heat that felt wrong, a bitterness that clawed at the edges of Ember’s consciousness.
