Tamara’s eyes widen in great astonishment while looking at Shahara who stood up and looked at the shelves while talking to her. She already know how to shift at the age of five?! It was incredible! – She remarkably thought. “Shifting can be triggered by various things like anger, too much pain, uneasiness, even too much joy, or loneliness.

In the end, they moved into Bianca's parents' rented two-bedroom. Seven people squeezed inside with barely room for luggage. Bianca and Lila started fighting almost immediately. Lila called Bianca useless; Bianca called Lila a freeloader. When Helen's migraines flared, Bianca's mother told her to wait at a public clinic. Without my doctors, Gregory's blood pressure sent him to the emergency room. Without my tuition payments, Lila was removed from private school. Ethan's company fired him too. Customs work runs on trust. No one wanted client accounts handled by a man whose wedding funding had been pulled at the altar while he owed his ex-fiancee a mountain of debt.

"You disagree?” He glanced at her sideways. “Count Xander is very good at appearing to be what he is not.” “I’m beginning to think nobody in Windrider is who they appear to be,” Loren said at last. They reached her chamber. The guards straightened as the Duke approached. Loren paused outside the door, hand resting on the latch. “Lately,” she admitted softly, "I hardly know myself.” The words seemed to hang between them.

The crowd burst into gasps. Meanwhile, Natalie was too busy soaking in the masterpiece unfolding on Sienna's face. She wouldn't miss a second of it. As the room hung in stunned silence, Natalie put on her shocked expression and seized control of the conversation. "So, Ms. Spencer, none of those pieces were actually yours? That explains why your style 'magically' shifted from realism to abstract overnight. Did you honestly think we wouldn't notice? How could you do this to everyone who trusted you?" As Natalie's words sank in, the crowd buzzed with murmurs.

“You are the primate king, my liege, but you are not the only one with power. Your little ba-shifterless child will come to the temple to undergo a rigorous training. She’ll have ten years to choose a shifting form.” Melius stammered but was cut off by Lina. “We’ll do what we can for her.” She paused and hesitated. “Um, I trust that she’s Melius’ daughter, but could we…” Melius stopped her. “We do not need that. It will only cause doubt in your mind until the results are in. She is my daughter.” Sanches shrugged his shoulders. “It matters not. During the training period, the DNA strands are compared to past shifterless and determined if there is a connection. So, you’ll have to give a sample

Then, with all her might as an Alpha, she began her shifting— And pulled Alexander along with her. Bones cracked and flexed. Her muscles tore and reshaped, her body reshaping itself as a thousand times before. It was as easy as effortless as breathing for her. But Alexander—his body fought. He gasped, his tiny body trembling as the shift tried to take hold. Sharon could feel his hesitation through their bond, the natural fear of something unnatural prevailing. It’s okay, she told him silently, pouring reassurance into the connection. I’ve got you.

The lack of eye contact is another downside of my new days as a Shadow Warrior. King lifts the brush and I allow a long sigh to escape my lips. He's been brushing my hair when things get rough and at times it's the only thing that calms me. I should feel bad that I've put him through this. There's a sense of nagging in my brain that wants to blame him for what I'm going through. It's completely ridiculous. The sad truth is my beast doesn't care. She's angry at the world right now and so full of rage it worries me that I won't be able to control her. King says this is also normal, though I have my doubts. He and Axel assure me it will get better and I'll be able to control shifting and everyt

My enhanced abilities that were supposed to make me harder to fool have become the very mechanism through which I'm being controlled. Real, I try to decide with desperate certainty. Those memories are real, which means the footage was fake, which means Rhett is still fighting for me. But even as I think it, I know I'm just choosing what to believe rather than determining what's actually true. When reality becomes completely fluid, belief becomes the only anchor available—even when that belief might be wrong. And maybe that's enough, I think with sudden, fragile hope. Maybe choosing to believe in love is what makes it real, regardless of whether it started as genuine emotion or artificial man

“About everything I’ve done. About the people I’ve hurt.” Dr. Warren leaned forward slightly, his gaze encouraging. “That’s a good place to start, Cassia. It takes courage to face the truth.” Cassia laughed bitterly, shaking her head. “I don’t think it’s courage. It’s just… reality.
