into the woods without getting noticed. I walk into the woods without a plan or weapon. Something feels odd right whenever I find myself in these woods. I feel "Hello Alice," a sweet voice says behind me, startling me. I jump and turn to face the direction of the voice. A young lad who is probably my age is standing an inch away from me. "How do you know my name?" I look around me to find anything I can use to protect myself. The tree behind me has a broken branch hanging on it. I slowly take a step backward while keeping my gaze on him. "Everyone knows you, mi lady," he replies with a soft smile. His accent sounds different from the people around here. His dark hair is packed in a low bun.

Turning back to Alpha Shawn I raise my finger to him and said, “Don’t make me break my promise to Aunt Connie.” With a flick of my wrist, I unfroze Alpha Shawn and his first words to me are, “You seriously can’t be okay with this.” Taking a deep breath, I say to him, “The Moon Goddess has paired them as mates. There is no dark magic involved and Izzy is his true mate. You are to accept who the Moon Goddess has paired.”

I jolted out of the vehicle in a screech of panic, diving in behind the driver for shelter. Considering the driver was a frail old man—it wasn’t a promising choice. The driver peered over his shoulder at me in surprise. “I’m so sorry, miss, but I can’t help you out of this situation. It is regrettable, it is, indeed.” “Are you sure we are at the right place?” I asked as the giant doors in front of the castle creaked open. “This looks like a vampire lair.” “Very sure, miss. This is Mooncrown Falls Preparatory.” Though told by the look on the driver’s face as an enormous figure approached us, he didn’t look too sure of himself.

Ash shifts again, his paws moving away from their original places, but still keeping me pinned down. Snow continues to fall at a steady pace, the wind growing slightly and the sky becoming darker. A few minutes after the house lights up Mikki trots out of the forest with Tori, Ally, Vic and Carson with her. They pause at seeing us, but then trot over to the door where they shift and go inside, all murmuring.

“My time here is finally coming to an end. You will inherit all of your birthright. That is right Mari. Your mother was my great granddaughter. You are the last in my line, and when I go all I have and all that I am will pass to you. You must also know that your mother was also the last living descendent on earth of Selene. Yes the very same Selene, goddess of the moon and the one who had 50 children. Someone has hunted both our families to near extinction. In you lies the culmination of Three powerful gods. Titans and Olympians both. You must master your power and bring all the tribes together in order for them to survive. It is important that you do this. If not, all will be lost. Keep Lyl

*ZARA’S POV* The Moonwell glows faintly in the predawn light, its waters rippling as if stirred by an unseen hand. The grove is silent now, the echoes of battle replaced by the soft rustle of leaves and the occasional chirp of waking birds. My body aches, every muscle protesting as I kneel beside the well, my fingers trailing through the cool, silvery water. “She’s here,” Selene whispers, her voice carrying an otherworldly echo. She stands beside me, her tiny hand gripping mine, her eyes glowing faintly with the same light that dances on the water’s surface.

"Also what's the deal with me?" "If you succeed in finally making me the Luna of this pack, I will bring you out of this forest and make you the high priestess of the Ravens Pack. How does that sound?" I asked and saw the glow that appeared in her eyes. "In that case, you have a team with me. That Selene girl is too little to be a threat to us." Witch Ian replied, showing her green colored teeth. After some time, she handed a tiny bottle to me. "This should be consumed by none other than Selene Nightfall. There will be a change right after that. Once you succeed in this assignment, report back for the next step." She instructed and my eyebrows raised.

Outside, the moon sank lower, heavy with its own secrets. Inside, two marks beat in time—no longer enemies, not yet allies—waiting for the night they would decide which they were meant to be.

The servants also brought to the table a handle of scrolls and other papers, books, letters and even maps. “As stated in the original prophecy, two children will be born on the night of the Lunar Eclipse. One with the blessing of the moon and one with the blessing of the sun. The two shall meet at the end of the world, and it shall be reborn again.” The priest read the script. “So we need to find a boy with the same birthday as me?” Luna asked. “When is your birthday?” Sol asked. “ February 29.” Luna looked at Sol. He seemed shocked. “Why?”

Xavier said. “At least Crescent Moon, Mead Moon, Storm Moon, Far Side, Eclipse, Cold Moon, and Ice Moon,” Thea said. “Possibly Moonrise and Chaste Moon. They were invited to the meeting Alpha Jett called to talk about banding together against New Dawn, and they didn’t seem against it. Alpha Ford from Moonbeam will be there as a Trojan Horse. He’s the one who told us who pledged an alliance with Crescent Moon.” “Moonlit didn’t have a relationship with those packs,” Xavier said. “Unless they had dossiers on us, they wouldn’t know who I am.”
