[Chance’s POV] I watch as fire balls come crashing into the room, causing utter chaos to erupt around us. Reaching out, I pull Gale towards me while Talia watches the whole scene with shock. "Chance, take me out of here." She demands abruptly, her gaze shifting to me and Gale."Are you really prote
[Gale’s POV]Strength radiated through me as I began to become one with my wolf. Something about being like this felt so natural and so comforting.‘Finally,’ a voice sighs. ‘I’ve missed you, Gale.’‘Gale?’ I repeat, confused as to why this strange voice is calling me that. ‘Who is Gale?’‘You,’ the
[Chance’s POV]"What did you just say?" I growl, trying to keep my anger in check. "He tried to kill you?"What the actual fuck is going on here right now? Not only was Talon alive and well, but now Ramone was saying that right before he died, he attempted to kill him?Why was I left in the dark abo
[Chance’s POV]Lunging forward, I prepare to stop Talon and Talia before they escape, but before I get there, sparks explode from around their feet and smoke rapidly rises. They disappear from sight instantly, and when my body hits the smoke, I’m met with just thin air."Fuck!" I growl, looking arou
[Gale’s POV]"STOP!"Silence falls around the room as my words echo. I wait as all eyes find their way to me, Chance’s included."This isn’t Tyson’s child." I sigh. "And right now, no one present is anyone’s enemy."With the reappearance of the Demon King, we needed to band together. We all had a si
[Chance’s POV]The world around me disappears as those two single words, "my mate," hit me. Did this mean that she was willing to forgive me and give us a chance?"Well, things just got interesting." Ramone laughs, pushing himself off the wall he is currently leaning against. "I think we should give
[Gale’s POV]My body shivers and comes alive as Chance’s skilled hands search every inch of skin. Despite the clear urgency we are both feeling, he is so gentle that you would think he was handling too thin of glass that could shatter at any minute.From the minute we arrived at the small inn that C
[Gale’s POV]I lay quietly tracing the scars on Chance’s chest with my finger. Where my skin brushes sends pleasant waves of warmth through me, reminding me that this whole thing was real and not a dream or returned memory."Are you going to oblige my request, la mia luce?" Chance husks, tightening
"Life doesn’t work that way, sis," I sigh, forcing a smile. "And once I graduate from the academy, I plan on joining Uncle Elleric’s forces, so I won’t have time to think about things like love." "So you’re going to follow behind her," Fallon murmurs, not seeming pleased at all. "You’re going to fo
[Idris’ POV] "Are you sure you’re going back?" Mom’s eyes begin to fill with tears as she waits for a response. I don’t know exactly what she expects me to say. "Yes, I am. It’s been a month since Mateo and his underlings were killed, and the academy is finally reopening. As a student, I am requi
"Hindrick," Heather growls, coming to Utica’s defense. "I’m sure there was a reason that she did it. Why do you always have to be so nasty with anyone who isn’t Fallon?"Flinching, I keep my expression neutral while Heather’s glare burns daggers into me."Did you know?" I ask. "Or are you going to c
[Hindrick’s POV]"Welcome back!"Uncle Elleric doesn’t wait before he pulls me into a hug, crushing me against him and making me extremely uncomfortable.Growling, I work to break free, and once I manage to achieve my goal, I take a few steps back."Ever the stoic," he chuckles, taking me in. "Can’t
"He…" Fineon sighs, his frustration returning. "Gave me an earful about going off like this during such an important time for you."So dad was thinking about the upcoming alpha ceremony that I would be completing. That was kind of him, but I didn’t want him to guilt Fineon into thinking that he need
[Fallon’s POV]A month passed in a blur before things were finally beginning to become normal once again. With things being so hectic, I didn’t get to see much of Fineon since he seemed to always be busy, but this time when we met, I wasn’t going to let him go until he told me what it was that he wa
"Dad." For the second time that day, everyone was left in shock as a voice that we weren’t sure we would ever hear again reached our ears. "Leave Callie alone," Idris continues, joining Fallon to protect her. "Think of what Cyrus would want and get your shit together!" "Idris," Gale sobs, attacki
[Fineon’s POV] Returning home was a bittersweet thing, given the circumstances we were returning under. Whether it should have been a time of celebration, it was instead a moment of saying welcome back and saying goodbye. As we made landfall and began to unload, Fallon rushed off to see her parent
Growing quiet, Fineon lifts his gaze in time for the light to explode out of Mount Malum, erasing the dark clouds that remained in the sky above and allowing a brilliant blue to peek through."It’s magic," I murmur, feeling the warmth of it pressing against my skin. "Do you think it is Mateo’s final
