My wealth began to snowball, growing rapidly. … One year later. On an ordinary afternoon, I drove aimlessly through the city. By some twist of fate, I returned to that familiar intersection. I did not get out. I parked, peering through the tinted windows, quietly observing. Cars streamed by as crowds surged past. Students in uniforms walked across the crosswalk, laughing and teasing in small groups. Sunlight spilled over their young faces, filling them with hope and dreams for the future. I suddenly understood that the one who died in prison in my previous life was not truly my past self.

“It is a tide. It waits. It hungers. And in the moment of coronation, it will strike again. That is the true eclipse.” The words chilled her, but before she could speak, Kaelen’s hand steadied her back. His expression was unreadable, though his voice was low. “Then we prepare.” By nightfall, the great hall of Dawnspire was restored as best as hands could manage. Tattered banners were rehung, bloodstains scrubbed from the tiles, and a dais raised at the far end where once the throne had stood. The people gathered, voices hushed, faces lit with the glow of hundreds of candles.

Timothy wouldn't have become the wealthiest man in Greenwood Vale if not for him. It had been years since I last saw Dante in this life. He looked much older now, but I could still recognize him. Dante held my hand excitedly. "It's you, dearie! You were the one who killed the venomous snake that crossed my path while I was in the mountains a decade ago! I've never forgotten your bravery and have always hoped to be able to repay the favor. "Would you like to go to Greenwood Vale with me? I'll show you the ropes on how to start a business. Fresh opportunities are everywhere now. I'm confident you'll make something big for yourself!"

At two in the morning, my sister, Paige Boyce, paid men to smash up my barbecue stand. I fought to make them stop, ignoring the embers that scorched blisters into my skin as they landed. It was the first time in my life I'd ever raised my voice at her. "After Mom and Dad died in that plane crash, this stand paid for four years of your college education and helped you become a flight attendant for Golden Crest Airlines," I said. "Are you really going to destroy the only thing keeping us alive?" Something flickered in her eyes, a flash of reluctance, but she steeled herself and scoffed.

Into the Depths Dawn’s first light crept through the forest canopy as Aria, Caden, and Elara set out from the watchtower, Rollan nestled securely in Aria’s arms. The air was sharp with the scent of pine and damp earth, but an undercurrent of unease lingered. They moved swiftly and silently, their footsteps muffled by the thick layer of fallen leaves. Caden led the way, his eyes scanning the shadows for any sign of Darius’s loyalists, while Elara followed close behind, her cloaked form blending into the gloom.

Seven billion consciousnesses returning to existence all at once. With nowhere to return to. She looked at Dawn. Dawn was awake. Had been awake for the last minute at least, lying still with her eyes open, listening to a conversation she couldn't possibly understand with ears that were four days old. The mark on her shoulder blazed back to full silver. "Oh," Petra said. "Oh no." Dawn's hands came up. Both of them. Flat palms facing up. The posture of someone holding something. The warmth in the chamber intensified.

Chapter 69:A New Dawn The village was bathed in the soft glow of dawn, the first light of a new day breaking over the horizon. The air was filled with a sense of renewal and hope as the villagers went about their morning routines. Luna and Asher, having returned victorious from their latest challenge, knew that it was time to focus on rebuilding and strengthening their community even further.

Alpha lashes out. "Respect's earned, not given; you're my Alpha, but that doesn't mean I have to bow to you," Dawn retorted. A back-and-forth between Dawn and her father culminated in Dawn's departure, stating, “I’m finished with this, I'm going.” Dawn gathers her possessions, storing the weapons inside a long brown duffel bag. Once everything is packed up, she picks up the backpack, swings it onto her shoulders, and walks past her father. As she was about to walk further, he made her turn around by taking her hand.

They sent out search boats and professional divers and worked through the night till dawn broke. "Found him!" someone called out. They pulled up the body I had arranged in advance. Only when the evidence was undeniable would Serena and Ethan truly believe I was dead. At the same moment, I was hauled up by the backup I’d arranged in advance. Gus walked over in long strides. "Caleb. Everything's ready. All that's left is waiting for them to walk into the trap." The sun rose slowly. Serena ripped out her IV and wrecked the hospital room. She refused treatment for her leg and insisted on going back to the place we had lived together.

Chapter 60 As the sun falls into the horizon, the people, or should I say the werewolves, of the town of Dusk and Dawn starts to gather at our place. Tonight the alpha’s madness will end. Tonight, everything will be more normal and free. No more threats and darkness. Only good, light, and life.
