Ella chimes in. “What the fuck ever.” I say, dismissing them both as I go back to admire Jacks grace. After scrolling through countless photos and videos of Jack, my thoughts become interrupted by by the sound of Ella’s voice. “Helloooo??? Earth to Kat!” She says, breaking me out of my lustful trance. “Dear God Kat! Is this all you did all summer?

“Don’t touch her.” “Oh,” Celeste purred. “You’re still protecting her? Even after everything? That’s sweet.” Another explosion erupted behind them. Warriors screamed. The edge of the cliffs collapsed, and part of the sigil circle shattered. Seren gasped. “No! If we lose the outer binding, the rite collapses!” Elias, wounded and bloodied, sprinted up the slope, flanked by two elite wolves. “We’re losing control! They’ve broken through the southern ridge!”

Isabel nodded, her pride felt wounded, but she didn’t argue. Her shock remained there, her eyes looked like they were getting repercussions for Asher’s betrayal.

At least so he can know the kind of mother he has.” My eyes moistened with tears because to be honest, leaving Carl on that night was the most difficult thing I've ever had to do.

When he opened his eyes, he saw the front gate coming into view and knew they were nearing the edge of their territory. Thaddeus slowed down, and the guard waved as they drove past. After a moment, Aiden felt it, and he shifted uncomfortably in his seat. He felt it the moment they passed through that invisible barrier that marks the territory of the Midnight Moon Pack. The further they drive away from it, the connection to their people slowly fades. That's not the only thing that fades.
