She closed the door firmly this time, a little faster than before, and returned to the desk with purpose, her heart pounding in her chest. She reached out with a shaking hand, grasping the rosary and the strange book tucked underneath the file. As she pulled them free, she noticed how worn and peculiar the book looked, its leather cover cracked and aged. She turned it over in her hands, and her eyes widened slightly at the title embossed on the back:

Lucas’s chestnut wolf surged to the center, his golden eyes sharp with focus. “The Nightshade Pack is among the oldest, rivaling Silver Moon and Shadowfang in legacy,” he began, his voice clear through the link. “Centuries ago, twin alphas Fenrir and Faber Nightshade were born to lead Shadowfang. Legend says they fell for the same she-wolf, fated to Faber. Heartbroken, Fenrir split off to form Nightshade, carving a vast territory in the wilderness.

She was screaming in the fire ball and I could smell burning flesh and I knew that it was actually hurting her but then she raised her arms up and the shadows appeared from behind her and approached me with significant force and knocked me off my feet and I dropped the fireball. I got back up and the shadows were surrounding me and I couldn't see the witch anywhere and I used the wind element to force the shadows to move.
