he said, drawing the word out playfully, “there might be a sunset dinner with some of your favorite foods and maybe a starlit walk on the beach.” “Is that so?” I teased, nudging him with my elbow. “You’ve certainly thought of everything.” “I had some help,” he winked, gesturing at the sky as though the universe itself had whispered the itinerary to him. We both chuckled, and I brushed a strand of hair from my face, reveling in the tranquility that surrounded us. We sat like that for a while longer, lost in the world of piggies. After spending some time on the beach we both head back to the cabin. “This is the best day ever Sebastian. I love you baby. How about round two?” I say with a little

And with that promise echoing in his heart, he surged forward, his pack close behind, ready to face whatever darkness lay ahead. A few hours later, the first light of dawn crept over Blackthorn, painting the ruined courtyard with muted gold and crimson hues. In that fragile morning glow, Diego stood atop a shattered wall, surveying the aftermath of last night’s battle. Amid the remnants of shattered stone and spilled blood, a familiar sound stirred hope in his weary heart—the steady, resolute voices of his pack.

The blanket wrapped around us, making everything hazy—except for that smile. Could I— The sound of the door opening made us both lift the blanket and look up. Julian, Orion's third assistant and loyal follower in his small group, stood there. "Time for work?" I asked, grimacing as Orion stood up. He nodded. "Yeah. Sorry, I wish I could play with you both longer. But—" Julian cleared his throat, and Orion let out a deep sigh. "Yeah, see you tonight. Bye, little boy!" he said to Alvin before striding to the door and leaving with Julian.

We watched as if focused on the cafe. We saw Daniel and Savannah walking out a few minutes apart before walking down the street together. The screen jumped to another camera still following the two of them. I could see they were starting to stumble which meant the sedatives were starting to work. They were about a block and a half from the cafe when the guy approached them. Savannah looked like she was barely able to keep herself standing. Two more guys approached from behind them as Daniel collapsed. One of the other guys picked up Savannah. Both were placed in a huge SUV. “You are a hacker?” Niven asked.

My face was bubbling with smiles, unable to hold my excitement I hurriedly went to meet her and took a seat next to her. "Guess what?!" I squealed, suppressing the laughter threatening to tear out my lips. She didn't even look at me, “come on, guess.” I tapped her leg and she turned to glare at me. Still, I nudged her, unbothered by her reaction. Uninterested, she mumbled, “Calyx is going to be the next alpha in a couple of days, which automatically means you will become the new Luna.” “Yes!!” I screamed. “But how did you know?” I asked, surprised she already knew.

I already had enough problems overflowing my plate, I wasn't going to add another one. Between my father’s ultimatum, Silas showing up at the game, and Xavier’s increasingly unhinged behavior, my subconscious was probably having a breakdown and causing these equally crazy dreams. I had less than seventy days before my father dragged me back to become Mrs. Silas Alaric. I’d started counting down without meaning to, the number sitting in my brain like a countdown timer I couldn’t turn off. This morning, I got another text from Silas. A photo of a wedding venue, all white flowers and crystal chandeliers. Beautiful and suffocating.

I figured I would be able to get I touch with her through Tammy but she took had shown her worry when Louisa hadn't responded to her messages Apparently she had come from the Blood Moon pack and that alone would have sent me into a nervous breakdown if her mother hadn't told Tammy that she had escaped. Left the pack for some reason and no one knows where she might be, up till today. And no matter what I do, no matter how much I have matured since then, I can't shake her away from my thoughts. And now, that wretched witch had to bring her up again. “Bitch,” I mutter as I shut down my computer and get to my feet before leaving the office. “Closing early?” Mark asks as he catches me by the elev

The afternoon of the wedding, the Spanish air hung heavy and stifling. When everyone arrived at Castillo de Sol, excitement buzzed through the guests. They wandered the grounds, snapping pictures. Even Mr. and Mrs. Dawson beamed, pulling Tania close for countless photos. Only Shane frowned at his phone, staring at the empty thread. A few days ago, he had sent me the castle’s address, along with the selfie he’d taken with Tania in front of it. I hadn’t replied.

“I’m sure you two can discuss it in private, Kill. The sun’s about to set, and it’s dinnertime for the twins. I’ll head back to the resort.” All the others went back, leaving me alone with Killian. He lounged beside me as we gazed at the amazing sunset, casting an orange glow over the black volcanic sand and pebbles all around. The towering Mesa Vouno Mountains nearby, the crystalline turquoise water of the Aegean Sea created a unique sunset experience I had never seen before. The cool sea breeze blew across my face as I sat under the taverna with Killian. “It’s beautiful, isn’t it?”

The heavy main door of Caden's mansion clicked shut behind me. The sound didn't offer freedom; it sealed me into a new kind of prison. The bright afternoon sun felt too harsh, mocking the darkness that had just settled deep inside me. I was outside, yes, but no longer my own. The air felt thick, heavy with the weight of the deal.
