However, Frankie showed up much sooner than I expected. When I saw him outside the club entrance, I almost didn't recognize him. The confident man I once knew seemed to have aged overnight. The spark he used to carry was gone. When he saw me walking toward him, his eyes lit up, and he quickly approached me.

" I said in a higher pitch than I'd normally speak. My phone buzzed. I immediately picked it, hoping it'll be Brian. However, it was another promotional message for a birthday deal.

I cleaned all the blood on his body, trying hard to stay focused since this was the second time I'd be seeing his body in the space of hours. “What happened?” I asked, wondering why his wounds wouldn't heal voluntarily. “Was it my advice that put you in this situation?” “No.” He chuckled, looking up at me as I stitched his body. His face got closer to mine, and it got several times harder to concentrate. I could feel my chest tighten as I swallowed hard. “What happened then?” I inquired, feeling very concerned. “I fought the faceless Luna.” He said, and my eyes widened.

I sank my teeth into my lip and silently prayed he wouldn’t feel the tremble in my hand as I took his. “It’s your birthday, which you conveniently left out when you invited me…” I narrowed my eyes playfully. “Aren’t you supposed to be the guest of honor?” “We both can be.” Holden said confidently, breaking our locked gaze to return the hellos from a couple of she-wolves I recognized from Darkling. “When’s your birthday anyway?” “February third.” Holden’s smile widened. “Happy very early birthday then. Hope you like our party, it took hours to set up.”

*ONE YEAR LATER* **DREX** The room buzzed with excitement as everyone chanted, "Cut the cake!" Yes, that's right, it was my birthday, and today was also the day of my engagement ceremony to the love of my life, Jessica.

I offer her my hand, and her soft, warm fingers lace through mine as we head back to the party's epicenter. The background music fades away, replaced by the classic birthday song. Jaja stands in the middle of the crowd, her face glowing like a birthday candle as everyone sings to her. She locks eyes with me, and just like that, we're sharing an inside joke. A playful wink, a little wave, and I'm grinning like an idiot.

On her way returning, she saw Abigail and Aria laughing wholeheartedly and it melted her heart. "Today is the birthday of Abigail Williams, it's my birthday." Abigail exclaimed happily, embracing Aria into a tight hug. A thundering crash was heard, with pieces of broken glass scattering everywhere on the floor. Hazel's hand shook violently with her breath increasing rapidly. 'Birthday?' she asked in her head, unable to believe what she had just heard.

Justin stared at the plain, expressionless face on the screen, terror surging in his deep, still eyes. That kidnapping incident had happened 20 years ago. Yet the moment he saw that face, memories long buried surged back, vivid as if it had all happened yesterday. Justin walked to the floor-to-ceiling windows, his face ghostly white. With his back to Sheryl, he called Zachary. "That was quick. It seems you've seen my surprise," Zachary said with a laugh, clearly delighted by Justin's reaction.
