“Go! We’ll hold it off!” Summoning her courage, Lena darted toward the pedestal. The runes flared brightly as she approached, sending a shockwave of energy that knocked her back. “You have to prove your worth,” the guardian said, its voice echoing in her mind. Lena stood up, her resolve hardening. “I have nothing to prove. I fight for my pack, for their freedom. If that’s not enough, then you’re no better than Zara.” The runes flickered, as if considering her words. Slowly, the light dimmed, and the energy surrounding the pedestal subsided. Lena extended her hand, closing her fingers around the talisman.

Lexi groaned and then let out a breathless, manic laugh. “Easy, Sylph. I’m just kidding.” “Second,” Arah continued sharply, ignoring the bait. “You don’t leave this house. And no one else should see you here—except Roselia.” She figured they’d need Roselia’s help navigating this mess once she was available again. “Oh, Gildeon’s hedge witch friend?” Lexi mused. “I’ve been meaning to meet her.” The wind tattoo yanked again. The laugh in Lexi’s throat turned into a low grunt.

Cassandra asked. "What's wrong with that?" Then we'll have a lot of time to prepare and enjoy," Lisanna said and winked. "What are you guys talking about?" Cassandra said and let out a sigh. Her friends didn't answer and started rummaging through her closet for a dress. Lisanna pulled out a black off shoulders halter mini dress. It's a long sleeve and fitted perfectly to Cassandra. Lisanna smiled and handed the dress to her. She raised her eyebrows, remembering she brought this dress because she wanted to go to a bar but her twin brother, Blaze, forbade her to go. Cassandra remembered fleeing that night, but her twin followed her.

Arren could sense an unusual aura from her demeanor. "Rocky?" Arren thought for a moment. Wasn't that a neighboring country and reportedly had a strained relationship with this region? "What's your name?" "Um... I'm... Ley!" Princess Lesel said, trying to hide her true identity. She came to the cafe, once again escaping from the guards, to have fun and, if possible, meet Leon again. Unfortunately, the handsome man couldn't be contacted. Maybe Leon was on a mission to find the parents he talked about yesterday.

They’re likely from one of the free packs that roam in hiding beyond the reach of Pantharas. Lexa was a force in the arena. Smooth, calculated movements, full trust in her body. Chessie, the smallest, is a skilled fighter, but her stature is going to be a disadvantage. She’s cunning from what I’ve seen, however, and that’s an important trait to the fae. The other one wasn’t of interest to me. I sensed a beat of distrust between Lexa, the obvious leader, and the red-haired woman during their round of the Culling. I took that to heart when making my decision. “Silas owes me,” I explain, turning back toward the house.

Running to Kain the moment someone else shows outright disapproval of me. I don’t want that. I don’t want to rely on Kain for pointless things I can handle on my own. One last deep breath and I clear my throat. “My name is Lilith Aragon, I am an outsider and I am to be your new Luna.” I finally speak. My words shock everyone. Me darning to proclaim a fact they already do not agree of seems to set them on a disapproving edge, they begin murmuring amongst themselves with obvious frowns on their faces.

Lance interrupted, an annoyed look on his face, “we have more pressing issues at hand.” Lewis swallowed and turned back to his computer. “Sorry, Beta.” As Lewis typed vigorously at the keyboard, Vanessa took the opportunity to get a good look at the lycan. Even with gaged ears, piercings covering his face, and tattoos that crept up his neck and made their way around his cheekbones and forehead, he was still one of the most attractive people Vanessa had ever seen. Lewis looked like he belonged in some heavy metal or emo rock band as the sexy lead singer. She was starting to think it was impossible to be a lycan and not be ridiculously good-looking. A low growl and glare from Nick put a quick

Larissa was curious. Zero was pretty chill when she was not gaming, so it was rare to see her angry. To be so angry to the point that she had acne … it was clear that this was no small matter. "It's those two knuckleheads! Dark Knight and BestM! Fucking assholes!" Zero huffed even as she shoved a mouthful of salad into her mouth. The names Dark Knight and BestM were somewhat familiar to Larissa. After a bit of recalling, she realized that they were the anchors under Lana.

Maybe this was all a nightmare and here I am waking up. “Soma.” a voice from the light came before the light faded and a silver Lycan appeared. “Don't be afraid,” she said. “What, who are you?” I asked confused. “I am yours,” she said bowing his head. “I am the sleeping counterpart. My name is Seff,” she said bowing before me.

NEPTOS Rein was strolling around the Galenus Market, looking for a booze, when he was blocked in his path. He halted and stared down at the small woman while she looked at him with a glare and a deep frown on her small face. She looked like a lion cub in front of a lion king. Somehow, it made him want to crush her. Almost like when he first encountered a certain cranky Lightning Kryst. "Where are Chloe and Jucel?" she asked in a stubborn manner. Barbie Lewelyn stood in a proud manner, like all generations of Lightning Krysts shared. Compared to the others, most especially Levi Lewelyn, Barbie was the smallest.
