"The rumor concerning CRUZ company...you didn't hear it?" "CRUZ company? I didn't hear about that, what was it about?" "CRUZ company was accused of producing fake designs and forging other companies' designs of paintings. It was all over the news, Clara." There was a hint of shock and surprise in Ella's voice.

Just as Alessandro was about to give up hope, he saw a small writing not far from the door. It said "Helena Dazzle" in a weird script. But somehow he could read the writing easily even though it was the first time he had seen such a letter. After the key word was said, suddenly the door opened and revealed a magic staircase that moved by itself. Slowly he descended the stairs. There was not the slightest doubt on Alessandro's face as he walked down the stairs one by one.

Cerebus hovered between them, growling softly if the woman shifted too fast. Dr. Voss laid a canvas scroll on the table. She unrolled it with care, revealing not a map, but something stranger — constellations inked in red, lines like veins, fragments of languages Ellie had never seen. “Most people think Cerberus — the original — died when the gods vanished,” Voss began. Her voice carried the weight of old lectures, sharpened by obsession. “But that’s not true. He was never killed. He was… recycled.”

He peeked around another hallway corner. There she was, Selena Collins, fiercely bargaining with a ghost in the elevator. The ghost appeared to be a former finance manager still arguing about budget cuts, and Selena was matching him line for line with increasing irritation. Yin blinked, tilting his head thoughtfully as he watched the elevator doors slide shut with a soft, mundane ding that somehow felt dramatically final. “What could it be, Selena Collins?” he murmured, tail twitching faintly beneath the illusion. “Why’d Nexus choose you?”

Suddenly, from the corner of the room, their mother’s voice rose in a broken wail. “Carla! Don’t take one of my children. It’s just me… It’s just me. Don’t make them suffer!” The plea cut through the air like a knife, raw and pleading. Their mother’s eyes were wide with terror, her bound hands twisting against the ropes as she rocked back and forth. The name “Carla” hung in the room like a summoned ghost, a tangible thread linking the present torment to the sins of the past. Eloise and Elena exchanged a glance heavy with shared dread—the curse was stirring again, drawing closer, its tendrils reaching for what little they had left.

I rolled the window down immediately and leaned slightly toward the wind. Yeah. Definitely wolfsbane. I glanced over at Terrence, then looked into the back seat. “Y’all smell that?” Terrence nodded slowly. Alex leaned forward between the seats. “It’s so faint I thought I was imagining it at first.” We continued down the road until the Crescent pack house came into view. The large building stood quiet against the mountains, its stone walls catching the late afternoon light. Before we could even park, the front door opened. Karissa stepped out onto the top of the stairs.

A freak accident that left me completely alone in the world. But now, I couldn’t help but wonder. Were they werewolves too? Had they known this would happen to me? Alaric said the curse didn’t activate unless you killed someone. If they were werewolves, had they never triggered the curse? Or was it something else entirely? I glanced at the window, where the light of the setting sun was fading, giving way to the night. The full moon was coming. I could feel it—a strange hum at the back of my mind, growing stronger with each passing moment.

Rebecca The trip to the border was calm and peaceful. The sky was already streaked with amber and pink as the sun started to set. We were in a more sedate area of town when the carriage finally stopped. Perhaps it was simply because it was nighttime. Vega looked at the card once more and said, "This is the place," before taking a step back. I trailed behind, holding fast to my bag's strap. Across from us was an office with a simple sign that said "Clara Wells & Associates."

Her voice wavered as she crouched down and snatched the baby bottle from the woman's unsuspecting grip. Her hands trembled, her eyes wide with dread. "W-Where did you get this bottle?" Turning toward me, her gaze was filled with accusation and despair. Tears welled up as her voice cracked. "This… this is the bottle I gave to Nicholas, isn't it?!"

In the scent that lingered like a mark on my skin. When I sat, I noticed Mistress Kyenna hadn’t taken her eyes off me. She looked… wary. Which was new. She’d known me since I was a pup. But this? This was something else. “I want her file on my desk tonight,” I said quietly. She didn’t ask who. She nodded. I looked back once. The girl had found a corner seat near the back. She was staring down at her hands like she’d rather be anywhere else. Good. Because I didn’t want her here either..And yet… I couldn’t stop thinking about how her scent made me feel two things at a time. It made me fall and fire at the same time. “The moon Goddess really did curse me,”
