Racheal's POV

I stood by my window, gazing out at the backyard where the Hallow Sisters Coven was hosting their barbecue party.

The air was filled with laughter and the tantalizing aroma of grilled food wafted through the air from my window.

As I watched, the door behind me creaked open, and I turned to see my mom entering the room.

"Hey, sweetie," she said with a warm smile. "Why don't you come downstairs and join us? The coven has been waiting for you."

I hesitated, feeling a wave of shyness wash over me. "I don't know, Mom," I replied, my voice barely above a whisper. "I'm not sure they'll like me. I mean, I'm part wolf, and they're witches."

Mom stepped closer, her eyes filled with understanding. "Darling, you are one of them. They've been waiting for you for years. You belong with the coven, just as much as you belong with the wolves."

My heart raced as I tried to turn back, but it was too late. She had already spotted me."Ah, there you are," she said, her voice commanding. "Come back here, I insist. Join me for breakfast."I hesitated, knowing the implications of being alone with the queen, but her gaze brooked no argument. "I... I suppose I could join you," I replied, my voice uncertain.As we sat in the dining hall, Athena entered, apologizing for her lateness. I averted my eyes, unable to meet hers after what had transpired between us the night before. She greeted me, and I grumbled in response."Is everything alright?" Athena asked, concern evident in her voice. "Do you need to talk about anything?"I knew exactly what she was referring to, but I couldn't let the queen catch wind of the fact that I had spent the night with Athena.

Confusion and anger merged within me, and I couldn't help but blurt out, "What are you doing in my room?"Athena's brown eyes widened, and she began to stammer, clearly caught off guard by my sudden arrival.

    Alpha Axel's POVI woke up with a pounding headache, my mouth dry and aching. The room was dimly lit, the curtains drawn shut. It had been two weeks since I last saw Rachael. Two weeks of unanswered calls and unanswered prayers. I had been drowning my sorrows in alcohol, my only companion in this lonely room.As I lay there, contemplating the meaninglessness of it all, a sudden burst of sunlight pierced the darkness and assaulted my eyes. I groaned and turned my face away, shielding my eyes from the intrusive brightness. I heard a rustling sound and a soft voice, which made me reluctantly open my eyes.There, standing by the window, was the queen herself. The queen, with her regal poise and a warm smile. She had always been supportive of me, reminding me of my responsibilities as an Alpha. She was the reason I had a pack to care for, to lead and protect. But lately, I had lost sight of that, lost in my own despair."Alpha," she said gently, her voice carrying the weight of concern. "

But tonight, as I closed my eyes and focused on the transformation, nothing happened.Frustration welled up inside me, mingling with the hurt t
