It wasn't just heartbreak; it was a deep, visceral revulsion. My wolf paced restlessly inside me, snarling with a desperate voice. By dawn, my head felt like it was filled with lead. I dragged myself to the kitchen to make coffee, my movements mechanical. My phone vibrated on the counter—Elise. "Tell me you've seen the internet," she said, her voice crackling with a mix of triumph and disbelief when I picked up.

“It’s about a woman who comes into an inheritance she doesn’t know what to do with. It’s not sad the way it sounds. I read it in February.” She takes it. Their hands are both on it for one moment, his large tanned copper haired hand covers hers for a moment before she draws hers back. The book is slightly worn, the way a book is when it has been used by many people. “Thank you,” she says.

While this book can be read as a standalone, it is recommended that you read the series, starting with The Arena.*** Every time I’m called to rise, I choose a human who is worthy. One whose heart is pure. One who is kind and loving. One who values the lives of others and is willing to give their lives to protect those around them. It has to be a human with these attributes because, while I always rise again, my humans do not.

I crash through the water and take off moving a safe distance from the cliffs, hoping I’m not too far from Lemuel. I see and feel the pull of the currents from under the surface as the tsunami makes its way towards the kingdom. I feel my eyes burn as I pull on the energy inside me and throw my hands out halting the tsunami in its tracks, or at least I thought I had. I can feel the force of the giant wave pushing against me, forcing me to readjust and throw more power into my actions, but still, I feel the fucking thing resisting me.

The regular tasks brought a semblance of normalcy and routine, something Katherine desperately needed. While rummaging through the storeroom to pick up more wrapping paper for the flowers, she stumbled upon an old book.

BIANCA'S POV "Why would a lovely damsel like you be heading to a hellhole like Dartmoor Island?" The captain's voice pulled me from my trance. I stood at the edge of the railing, watching the dark waves crash against the hull. The sharp wind struck my ankles. I shivered. "I simply have no other way to go," I whispered. "I don't have options." I tried to keep my voice steady, but the dread was overwhelming. Tears threatened to spill, hot and stinging against the cold sea spray.

"Time is money for us. You know what happens when you cross me." Alfred's face flushed a deep crimson. He knew all too well the dire consequences. The last guy who crossed Carol had his life turned upside down in no time, living a life even a beggar would pity. However, to dig through trash in front of me was a line he could not cross.
