She wiggled her eyebrows at me—as if what she were saying made the idea somehow more appealing. "It's a private school." I chuckled, shaking my head at the stupidity I found in her statement. "Every dance we have is invested with over thousands of dollars. They're all the biggest." "Yes—but this one is the winter one which is always better than the spring one." Preslie retorted, her tone defensive. "Yeah—peanut butter and jelly is always better with bread." I rolled my eyes, sighing at my weak comeback. "How does the season signify which will be better?"

However, when it came to Winter, I was prepared to eat my own words, anticipating the playful teasing from our relatives and friends. Elaine, in a scolding yet playful manner, turned to me, drawing attention to Winter's bare neck. She inquired why I hadn't claimed her properly, emphasising that it was time to do so. Concealing the complexities involving Brandon, I linked with Elaine, assuring her that Winter's neck wouldn't remain bare for long. It was a promise I intended to keep. My plan was to travel to Hayland and address the lingering bond issue between Winter and Brandon once and for all. Despite the challenges ahead, the reassuring aspect was knowing that Winter shared the same desire

Every eye watched the grand double doors at the far end of the chamber, the ones that hadn’t been opened for a coronation in over two decades. At the front of the hall, beneath the high ceremonial arch, stood those closest to the crown. Lysandra, resplendent in deep winter blue, her hand lightly resting atop Cedric’s arm. His expression was unreadable, though pride flickered in the corner of his eyes. Leo stood just behind them, his usual playful energy subdued under his formal black suit. Victoria, radiant and poised, wore royal colors across her shoulders, her chin tilted with practiced calm. And beside her, Calix, still and silent, his presence grounding like iron. They were the Winters.

A male designer who knew women better than women themselves — that was Christian. And Silje was about to meet him in person. The wind blew loudly. It was still cold, but it couldn’t compare to the winter wind in Norway. It felt much warmer, and she could feel spring coming. It was a busy time with the upcoming FW season. All the models were running around going to as many auditions as possible. In a light spring trench coat, Silje took the subway to get to her Sherian audition. Her heart felt light like her burden had been lifted.

"A ball? As in... dancing? With people? And shoes?" "The Winter Ball is the cornerstone of Ridge tradition," Fenris explained, looking remarkably untroubled as he sipped his tea. He reached over and gently wiped a smudge of jam from the tip of Elara’s nose. "It’s when we celebrate the first hard frost. Every member of the pack attends in their finest human attire. We eat, we drink, and we prove that we can stand upright for more than four hours without scratching our ears."

Then they went back to Snow and pricked his tiny finger; he whined instead of crying from pain. The blood from all three of us mixed together in the bowl, and the most amazing thing happened because the bowl actually changed color, shifting from silver to gold and glowing softly. A smile bloomed across the faces of the elders, and I saw Marcus and Elena both smiling too. The elders raised Snow up high above their heads so that everyone in the entire arena could see him clearly. "His name shall be Zane Snow Winter," the head elder announced in a voice that carried across the entire arena, "the son of Jude Winter and Rosie Elsa Winter, the fifty-fourth young alpha of Winter's pack!"

“Please deliver to this address, cash on delivery.” Outside the office, a car had arrived to pick her up. The driver waved when they saw her. “Here!” Wendy opened the door and, as though remembering something, pulled the wedding ring from her pocket. It was the ring Miles had slipped onto her finger by the ocean. The inner band was engraved with ‘Forever.’ She stared at it for two seconds, then tossed it out the window. It clinked onto the middle of the street, quickly crushed under the wheels of passing cars.

It was forbidden ground, the den of the mad wolf Axel. ... This day brought the worst blizzard of the season. It was also the date carved into Axel's bones. It was his birthday and the anniversary of Seraphina's death. An old courier knelt trembling outside the tent. "Alpha... This is a package a lady left with us ten years ago. She paid ten times the normal fee and specified it be delivered to you today." Axel emerged from the tent. Ten years of weathering had streaked his temples with white, but his eyes remained as lifeless as they had been a decade ago.

During the police's chaotic sweep, I slipped through the passage to an alley behind the warehouse, where I changed into a plain T-shirt and jeans from my bag, pulling a cap low over my face. A beat-up sedan waited in the shadows. The window rolled down, revealing Wallace Pearson's weathered face. He used to be my mother's trusted driver, retiring after her death. I had contacted him right after my rebirth. "Miss, everything's ready," he whispered, his voice thick with emotion. As the car left the city, I glanced back at the distant Winters Mansion, shrouded in twilight. From this moment, Eira Winters ceased to exist. Only an adversary, determined to reclaim her mother's legacy, remained.
