Emily announced proudly, peering over William's shoulder, clearly oblivious to his discomfort. "It's Sekhmet?" William asked her. "You're sure? This is very important. Are you sure?" She gave him a puzzled look. With her eyebrows raised, she gave the air another small sniff to double-check her findings. "It's him," she confirmed. "I'd offer you a secret handshake or password if we had one," Sekhmet said lightly as he continued toward them with deliberate slowness; his arms held out to either side of him in a classic pose of surrender. "But since we don't, you'll have to take my word for it. I'm me. Scout's honor. I know you can't smell me, but there's a reason for it."

“Whatever.” Andrea waved her objections away. “It worked. Two: So far as we know, only Haunt can detect the charmer. So we ask Scy if there is any other way he can think of, then see if he has any records from his predecessor that might indicate human/Haunt crosses in your midst.” Leo sat up. “That’s not possible!” Andrea placed a hand on her stomach. “Is. Scy did say it was rare for your women to have hard labors, seemed to think it a strong indicator of rape, maybe by Haunt. Cases of pre-labor sickness could give a strong clue.”

"But I suppose this will have to do." Scar's heart was racing, and it squeezed and skipped a few beats when Helen walked up to her . With a few deep breaths, she steadied herself, and she nodded. Deep within her, her witch was on edge, prepared to burst to life and run at a moment's notice. It was Scar's self-control that kept her from giving in to her witch's natural instincts. This was for her brother, and her pack. She had to believe that this abduction would benefit them all.

But now I have too much to live for. I watch as Kane halts us, putting his finger to his lips, “Shhh, we don’t know if anything is out there,” he whispers. Veronica and I nod as the three men move the boulder. I watch as she shakes a little, reaching for my hand. I know that she is still afraid that Alpha Perez’s scouts may find her. I hold her hand tightly, letting her know it’s okay. She smiles faintly as Finn walks back inside, “It’s clear, let’s go,” he tells us. Veronica smiles, her hand letting go of mine and reaching for Finn’s they walk out together as I walk behind them.

It was weathered, the edges curled, but a single mark made my chest tighten. A red circle drawn over a jagged valley. The place I had been found. I recognized it instantly, even if I didn’t know how. There, in smudged lettering: Dead Wolf’s Drop. And just next to it, etched in lighter ink, barely visible, was something stranger. A boundary. A shimmering arc sketched faintly, labeled simply: Forcefield Rupture, Apollo pack. I traced it with my thumb, a sharp memory flickering in my mind.

“Scarlett’s proxies aren’t just programs—they’ve hijacked agencies, assets. Digital and flesh.” “Which means she’s not dead,” Liam said, jaw clenched. “She’s not alive either,” Tamar added from across the room. “We’re dealing with a consciousness embedded in code. A synthetic shadow of her mind.” Richter stepped forward, grim as ever. “We need to strike before she stabilizes.” I looked up. “How?” He tapped the map projected on the center table. “A fragment of her was traced to the Zenith Vault in Zurich. If she consolidates her presence there, she can rebuild physically.”

One from my godmother’s last garden party. My family. Damien’s. “Hell,” Lucia whispered. “She didn’t just collect leverage. She ‘designed’ an empire of blackmail”, “But there’s one file she failed to clean”, Maverick turned the third screen on. A corrupted audio feed. Static crackled. Time-code distorted. The filename flickered: M. Crest – Subject 317A. My blood ran cold. “Miles”. Damien’s younger brother. “What the hell is 317A?” Layla asked.

"Forty minutes ago. Black SUV with diplomatic plates." The numbers climb “52...67...78” but my pulse flatlines. "Where?" The word tears from my throat raw. Claire's thumb brushes over a keycard as she slips it into my palm. "The old Scheherazade docks." Her voice drops to a whisper. "But Sophie"The doors open onto an empty hallway. "He wanted them to take him." Damien's private archive smells like bergamot and betrayal. Claire's keycard unlocks the biometric-sealed door, revealing a room lined with servers and a single monitor. The screen lights up with a paused security feed:

The foundation was laced with secret passages, half-finished tunnels, and power-dampening walls. They set up base beneath the original observation dome — now overgrown with vines and shielded from detection. Carl dropped a heavy duffel on the floor. “We’ve got enough equipment to tap the central comms system. We can broadcast if we need to.” Ophelia didn’t respond. She was scanning the map — tracing routes toward a mysterious, heavily-guarded chamber labeled “S3-X.” “What’s that?” Lilith asked, leaning in. Carl frowned. “That’s… not on any of the official layouts.”

That was also the reason why I only learned that Sasha had been abused for a long time when Leo finally found her at the base camp. Jasper had told me that he had sent her to the cryonics program to be preserved, but his real plan was to sell her off somewhere before we returned to the base camp. Luckily, Leo had arrived in time and managed to save her. Now, everything was finally moving forward in a positive direction. … Through Leo's and my persistent efforts in leading the team to search high and low within the former forests for clues, we finally managed to find the main source of the water contamination.
