I smiled awkwardly at Oliver, “call me if you want them to visit, and I’ll see what I can do.” To Rose Oliver felt like a stranger. And River is such a social butterfly that she just likes anyone and everyone. I’ve often joked that River would be the perfect girl to be kidnapped because she talks to every person she meets. I have warned her about strangers and not accepting anything or going with them, but I’m not sure it’s getting through to her.

It didn’t seem like it would take that long to cross, but Bay is vast and wide and unlike anything I’ve ever seen. And on the other side of it is my home for the next four months. I’m so glad I remembered to pop an Antivert an hour before boarding. I’d be puking over the rails by now had I not. Boats and I have never coexisted well. “So, what made you come?” I can tell River likes to talk, as much for conversation as to assess the foreigners coming to his homeland. “A brochure,” I answer simply, honestly. He chuckles. “Yeah, it’ll do that, all right. Lures plenty of folks our way.”

We don’t break.” Luna breathed out shakily but smiled. “Let’s finish this.” Together, the three of them stepped onto the final stone.

The frantic energy was gone, replaced by a calm, focused purpose. “I can feel the three rivers. They aren't just water, Roman. They’re the veins of the world. And something is clogging them. Something… wrong.” “Then we’ll clear them,” Roman said, his voice hard and certain. He kissed her forehead, his eyes already fixed on the tent flap, his wolf-senses already scanning the dark. “Together.”

He couldn't think of anything at all. He got up and walked over to the table for a glass of water. But when he picked up the flask, it was completely empty. A knot began to form between his brows.

Just as he was about to call for Bill, Katrina's cries echoed from downstairs. Ethan quickly materialized in Katrina's room.

He turned to me, his eyes full of a deep, aching sadness. He breathed. “Look, she has to go. This is how she wins. If she stays here, she’s a runaway. A nobody. If she goes back, she’s building an empire." River stepped forward and pulled me into a hug. I hugged him back, feeling the warmth of his body around mine. My eyes watered more.

Lila POV My wolf pulls free of the current eventually, and we break out of the top of the river, gasping for air around the backpack. We end up being pulled farther and farther down the river, not able to get out of the current to either side. My legs ache, and tiredness takes over with every brush of water against us. The only good thing is that Rizor is unlikely to find me now. The dreadful thing is that rivers like this can only end in two ways—one could be a pretty lake, and the other a deadly waterfall.

The sudden shift in balance sent our boat spinning out of the dark, shallow channel and straight into the center of the river, where the water was moving twice as fast. The boat flew down the river. The trees on the banks became l dark, The remaining two wolves on the shore were falling behind now, the rough terrain of the rocky bank forcing them to slow down while the river pushed us forward with a terrifying speed. Within ten minutes, the sharp alarms of the River Pack village faded into nothing but the dull, constant sound of the water.

Bo didn’t drop Oscar’s hand. They came to a crosswalk, the usual New York City traffic leaving a rather large number of people waiting for the sign to change. Bo found a rather large lump in his throat as they waited, the words that he was trying to form suddenly caught in his throat; “That’s good.” His voice was muffled, his heart rate rising as he watched the cars speed by. Jessamine made no move towards the edge of the curd and Bradley felt reassured that she knew what she was doing to the extent that she did. Though the thought did not lead to a loosening of his grip on her hand or a cautious eye on her as they waited.
