The first iron gates appeared like sentinels in the fog, their rusted bars twisted into intricate thorn patterns. As we passed through, something cold slithered down my spine. The estate's long-abandoned security cameras hung like dead birds from their mounts, their lenses shattered. Blackthorn Hall emerged from the storm-washed night like a nightmare given form.

Not every wolf possesses such power, the kind was rare even in towns. The car stopped at the front of the house, I got down and went towards the house. Selene has to fill me in on the situation at her end. Maybe I should have asked the men to sleep with her instead, then she wouldn't be any better than my daughter. "Where are you coming from at this ungodly hour? None of the maids knew about your whereabouts and I was about to send out a search party supposing something happened to you," Blackthorn said, sitting upright as he took the glass of wine before hi

"Shawn, I'm heading out to pick up some inventory. Keep an eye on the shop for a bit. "And Ms. Hartley from next door should be stopping by to settle her tab. The ledger's in the cabinet beside the counter. Just double-check it when she gets here." I vaguely heard my mother talking near my ear. I mumbled a few sleepy replies before drifting off again. I had been pulling all-nighters for the past few days, finishing my thesis, and I was completely wiped out. I hadn't even made it home. I just stopped by my mother's shop, found a bed in the storage room at the back, and collapsed.

“There was a small incident last night. A noise behind the wall. Turned out to be a bird trapped behind a secret door in your living room.” Christina’s brow furrowed. “Secret door?” “Yeah.

It was beautiful with state-of-the-art equipment and yes with some ancient artifacts that seemed out of place. I recognized some of the materials, thanks to my mother's teachings, and it was clear that Alpha Magnus was a resourceful man who spared no expense in providing for his pack.
