Leon ran a shaky hand through his hair, his expression a mix of bewilderment and amusement. “I didn’t think he’d take my teasing that seriously.”Concern gnawed at my insides as I processed Lin’s reaction. There was something more going on beneath the surface, something deeper that had driven him to act in a way that was so unlike him.“It is rather obvious he’s dealing with something we don’t know about,” I said, my thoughts echoing Rachel’s earlier words.Rachel nodded in agreement, her thoughtful gaze fixed on the doorway Lin had exited through. “Whatever it is, it’s clearly affecting the Alpha.”As we stood amidst the aftermath of Lin’s abrupt departure, the half-baked cookies forgotten on the counter, a sense of uncertainty settled within me. Our bond, once unbreakable, was now strained, and I couldn’t help but worry about the implications for our friends.“Is there really nothing troublesome you guys are dealing with right now?” I questioned Leon.“Eh, no, everything has been go

The echoes of my fury still reverberated in the dimly lit dungeon as Donna struggled to catch her breath. Her eyes held a mixture of fear and defiance, a reminder of the thin line I had almost crossed. My fingers trembled, the memory of the rage-induced grip around her neck haunting me like a specter. “Go on then, finish it,” she taunted, her voice laced with a challenging edge. “Or are you just as weak as you were back then?” My fists clenched at my sides, the echoes of her words like a bitter echo of the past. But even in my anger, I couldn’t let myself become what she wanted—a monster consumed by his own darkness. With a forceful exhale, I released my grip on her, allowing her to stumble backward as she sucked in desperate breaths. She straightened, her posture defiant as she glared at me. “What’s your price, Donna?” I asked, my voice a mixture of accusation and resignation. She smirked, the expression cutting through the tension that hung between us. “Freedom. Release me from

I closed my eyes, trying to shut out the image of Meghan's hurt expression that haunted my thoughts. The pain in her eyes cut deeper than any wound I'd ever suffered, and I couldn't escape the realization that my silence was causing her agony.

I trudged back to my study, my mind swirling with dozens of thoughts. What I was thinking about, I could not really say, but my mind felt full anyway.I just knew a particularly vicious headache was in store for me when Donna walked into the room, her presence exuding an air of newfound confidence that made me wary. Her smile was too bright, her eyes too gleaming, and a knot formed in my stomach as I wondered what she was up to now. She had always been manipulative, cunning, and her sudden change in demeanor raised alarms within me."What's the next step, Donna?" I asked, my voice laced with caution.

"Ah, Lin, always so eager to solve your problems. But don't worry, I'm not here to play games anymore."Her words did little to ease my skepticism. "Get to the point."A smile tugged at the corners of her lips. "We

His birth came at a time when we were going through the most difficult moment of our lives and I can’t help but cherish the bond I have with him. Jaxon looked like Ethan when he was a month old. A resemblance that was uncanny to their father. Our little family went from four to five and ever since my hands have been more than full.

I demanded, desperate for answers but mother simply looked at him as though nothing was wrong even though Lin looked like he was undergoing something more life threatening at the moment.“The cursed blood is getting fused with his beast making the transformation twice as painful for a normal wolf”My eyes widen, “How do we stop it?”"It can’t be stopped, child. Lin has to learn to control the powers that plagues him," mother said, sounding unbothered. "Often times, great powers comes with great responsibility"Lin let out a strangled cry, curling into himself and I pulled him closer, wrapping around his frame even though my arms barely fit across his board shoulders."Mother..look at him, this is a freaking curse…there has to be a way to help him." I pleaded, looking up at her."I’m sorry, Meghan but not all curse are a curse! Some are actually blessings if and only if he learns how to control it. If he doesn’t then he will die”My heart sank a

With the short bloody dagger still in my grip, I readied myself for the worst as the two rogue wolves closed in on me, their snarling faces contorted with hunger and aggression.

The weight of responsibility bore down on me, and I was ready to face whatever threat came our way.The first one lunged at me, it’s claws slicing close to my cheek in a deadly swipe and causing me to stumble a few step back.

My heart pounded in my chest, each beat a painful reminder of the recklessness that had nearly cost us everything. Tears welled in my eyes, a mixture of relief at seeing my family unharmed and the overwhelming guilt for what I had put them through. I was a fool to trust that woman.
