last update Last Updated: 2024-11-29 17:16:25

Aurora’s P.O.V

I sat on my bed, hugging my knees to my chest as I watched Caleb, Caroline, and—much to my surprise—Damien settle themselves in various spots around the room. Caleb perched on the edge of the bed beside me, his expression serious, while Caroline leaned against the doorframe, arms crossed, and Damien slouched casually in my desk chair. The room felt tense, as if they were all just waiting for me to snap, and if I was being honest, I was waiting for the same.

“Is this…really necessary?” I asked on a sigh, leaning back against my bed frame. “You guys should rest in your rooms, rather than be here and suffer even further because of me.”

“We’re staying,” Caleb said, his voice firm, yet soft. “All of us. We’re not suffering, Aura, we’re here to make sure that you’re safe.”

I nodded, my heart racing. “I’m so sorry for this. I just, I don’t know what’s happening, Caleb—” My voice cracked, and I grabbed his arm tightly, my fingers trembling.

    Aurora’s P.O.VThe first rays of sunlight seeped into the room, warm and golden, coaxing me out of the remnants of my sleep. As I stirred, I became aware of something firm and steady holding me. Blinking a few times, I slowly tilted my head upwards and found myself staring into Caleb’s eyes. He was already awake, watching me with a gentle expression that made my heart ache in a way I couldn’t quite describe."You're awake," he said softly, his voice carrying a warmth that made my chest tighten.I swallowed, my throat still scratchy from the night before. "Have you been awake this whole time?" I asked, moving myself closer to his warmth.He nodded, brushing a stray strand of hair away from my face. "I couldn’t sleep. I wanted to keep watch over you in case you had another nightmare. I didn’t want to take any chances, not after everything that happened."My breath hitched, and a lump formed in my throat. He had stayed up for me? I reached out instinctively, wrapping my arms around him a

    Caleb’s P.O.VIt was there again, that strange, unshakable connection between Aurora and Caroline. I couldn’t pretend I didn’t notice it this time. The way they seemed to feel each other’s pain, the silent exchange of thoughts that didn’t require words—it was eerie. It wasn’t just a coincidence; it couldn’t be. But how the hell was I supposed to bring this up to her? After everything Aurora had already been through, dropping another unexplainable bomb on her felt...wrong.Still, it gnawed at me. Should I tell her? Should I explain what I've noticed? Should I tell her what our friends and I had discovered not long ago about the Lunar Sisters?I sat on the edge of the bed, running my fingers through my hair, debating with myself. What good would it do to burden her with more questions when neither of us had answers? I sighed, looking over at her as she lay there, her face peaceful for once, her chest rising and falling steadily. It hit me then—what she needed wasn’t more mysteries to so

    Aurora’s P.O.VCaleb’s lips pressed into a thin line as he forced himself to smile, and he shook his head, but his eyes betrayed him. They were filled with worry.“It’s nothing,” he said quickly, his tone too rushed, even though he tried to mask it with a smile. “You’re just overthinking it, Aurora. You’ve been through a lot recently and maybe that’s overwhelming you.”But Caleb’s shocked expression earlier had only solidifies the unease swirling in my chest. I don’t need him to say anything; I can feel it in the silence between us, the way his eyes dart like he’s trying to make sense of something impossible.I knew I had said something to freak him out, but I just didn’t know what it was. Maybe it was the fact that I could feel the bond in a way that didn’t seem possible even two days ago? But the sensation was fleeting. It came and went in pulses, just like now, when Caleb’s emotions seemed to be completely shielded from me, unlike just a minute ago when I got this clear idea that h

    Caleb’s P.O.VI push open the door to the game room, stepping inside to find Caroline, Jade, and Damien already waiting. Caroline’s eyes immediately snap to me, her expression sharp, expectant.“Where’s Aurora? Is she suspicious of anything yet?”I close the door behind me, offering a reassuring smile. “She’s with Riley. Helping him with his schoolwork. She doesn’t know yet.”Caroline doesn't seem entirely convinced, but she nods, her gaze flicking to the others in the room. "Good. We can’t let her know just yet. We need to find solid proof before we tell her about our suspicions."“Wild guesses, you mean.” Jade sighs, but Caroline decides to ignore him.I shift on my feet, glancing around the game room. My gaze eventually lands on Damien, who’s lounging casually, but the tension in his body says otherwise."So, what's with him still hanging around here?" I gesture toward Damien, a slight frown pulling at my lips. "Won't your parents get suspicious with him being here all the time?"J

    Caleb’s P.O.VI slammed the car door behind me, staring up at Aurora’s house, feeling the weight of the situation press down on me. The old, rundown house loomed ahead of us, containing mysteries yet to be deciphered. I looked over at Damien, already halfway out of the car."You can wait here," I muttered, trying to keep my voice even. "I’ll investigate inside. This doesn’t involve you."Damien paused and shot me a look, like he wasn’t going to let me off the hook that easily."Caroline told me we’re doing this together," he said as he got out of the car and came to stand in front of me. "She wants us to bond over this mission. She’s counting on us, for our future."I felt my blood start to boil, frustration bubbling up like a wave. I grabbed Damien by the collar, yanking him closer with a firm grip before slamming his back against the car, unable to hold back my anger any longer."Look, I’ve let you fuck around with our situation long enough, but this is my mate’s house," I hissed th

    Caleb’s P.O.VI exchanged a glance with Damien, his expression mirroring my unease as we moved further down the hallway. The air was thick, oppressive, carrying the unmistakable stench of decay.My footfalls stirred up dust from the floor, which was coated in a gritty layer of dirt. I reached out to steady myself against the wall, but immediately drew my hand back in disgust—the surface was slick with dampness, streaked with black mold, and dotted with cobwebs that seemed to move, as if alive."This place just keeps getting worse," I muttered, my voice strained. I adjusted my grip on the wall to steady myself; the darkness here had us both using our wolf’s vision. "How the hell did it get like this? It’s like no one’s been here in decades."Damien, walking slightly ahead of me, paused and turned. His sharp gaze flickered over the mold-covered walls before resting on me."You know," he said, his tone ominous, "black mold isn't normal for a human house. It implies something deeper.”“Wh

    Caleb’s P.O.VThe sight of it made my chest tighten, the soft pastel curtains and the neatly made bed a stark contrast to the chaos outside.This was Aurora’s room…I could scent her from every corner, as if she had only just left this room. Thankfully, it wasn’t empty like the room downstairs, but the simplicity of it all didn’t sit right with me.The room was tiny, barely having space for a single bed, a tiny study desk and a closet. It felt like a sharp contrast to the vastly different lives we had been living before we even met. And it made me feel even more guilty about how I had ignored her, scorned her before the Moon Goddess made me realize she was my mate.Damien must have noticed my hesitation, so he strode forward to take action.“We can’t stay here,” Damien said; his voice hoarse as he slammed the door shut, keeping the fire at bay, for now. “The fire will catch up to us any minute now.”“There’s got to be another way out.” He crossed the room in quick strides, heading for

    Aurora’s P.O.VSitting cross-legged on the bed, I watched Riley furrow his brows in concentration as he scribbled away on the worksheet in front of him. The room was quiet except for the sound of his pencil scratching against the paper and the occasional frustrated sigh he let out. I chuckled softly and nudged his shoulder."You’ve got this, Riley. Just focus. The answer’s simpler than you think." He glanced at me, his lips pulling into a half-smile, and nodded. It felt nice, moments like these, just the two of us, where I could guide him and feel like I was making a difference in his life. Riley had always looked up to me, and I wanted to be the person he could rely on, no matter what.But then, out of nowhere, a sharp, piercing pain shot through my chest. It wasn’t subtle or gradual—it hit me like a bolt of lightning, making me gasp. My hand instinctively went to my chest, and for a second, I thought my heart had stopped. Riley looked up, his face immediately clouded with concern.“

    Aurora’s P.O.VMy heart was pounding in my chest, each beat echoing louder than the last as Caleb’s lips met mine. It started soft, almost hesitant, but quickly turned into something more intense, more consuming. I tangled my fingers in his hair, pulling him closer, needing more. His hands, strong and steady, gripped my waist, then slid up my back, leaving a trail of warmth wherever he touched.Every nerve in my body felt like it was buzzing, my skin tingling and burning under his touch. The kiss deepened, his tongue teasing mine, and I could barely think beyond the rush of sensations flooding me.A soft moan escaped my lips as I pressed myself against him, feeling his warmth and strength. My hands roamed over his shoulders, down his chest, unable to get enough. I was drowning in the taste of him, the feel of him. It was overwhelming, addictive. I’d never felt so alive, so on fire. Caleb’s hand slid under the robe, his fingers grazing my skin, and I shivered, arching into his touch. M

    Caleb’s P.O.VI had no idea what else to do, so I led Aurora back to my room instead of hers. It felt safer this way, like keeping her close would keep her out of harm's reach, at least for the moment. "Here," I said, handing her a towel."You should dry your hair off." I tried to keep my voice steady, though everything felt off, like I was walking a razor-thin line. Aurora took the towel from me without a word and started dabbing at her damp hair."You can head to the bathroom while I find you something to change into," I added, feeling like I had to keep busy, to keep my mind off the fact that I had her in my room. I turned to leave, but just as I opened the door to head out, I heard her voice."Caleb?"I paused, glancing over my shoulder at her. Her eyes locked with mine, the vulnerability in them almost too much to bear."Yeah?" I asked, trying to sound calm."I... I need you," she said, her voice low, but desperate, and it hit me like a punch to the gut. "Please... help me forget

    Aurora’s P.O.VI opened my eyes, gasping for air, but all I could feel was the pressure in my chest, the burning sensation in my lungs as the water surrounded me. I tried to flail my arms, desperate to push myself up, but it was like the water was pulling me deeper. Panic surged through me. I can't breathe, I can't breathe, my mind screamed, the darkness creeping in at the edges of my vision. I didn't know where I was, or if anyone could hear me, or if anyone would find me in time.I could barely make sense of anything, but just as I thought I was about to slip under for good, I felt something—a hand, warm and firm, grabbing mine. Who...? Before I could make sense of it, I was being yanked up, and the water rushed off of my face as my head broke the surface. My body was pulled upward, and with a sharp inhale, I was suddenly hoisted onto the side of the pool. I coughed, sputtering, my body shaking as I tried to steady myself, gasping for air like it was the first time I’d ever had it.

    Aurora’s P.O.VI woke up with a jolt, my body drenched in cold sweat. My heart hammered in my chest, and I was gasping for breath, the dark, suffocating feeling of my nightmare still lingering around me. My eyes darted around, but all I could see was blackness. No light, no sounds—just that endless void. Panic flooded through me, and I fought against the overwhelming sense of being trapped. I couldn’t let it take me again. I couldn’t stay in that place, that dark abyss.I tried to stand, but something was different. My feet met solid ground. Soft, familiar ground. Slowly, I blinked, trying to make sense of it all. I wasn't standing in the dark anymore. I wasn't in the place I had been before. I was... lying down? My hands brushed over the fabric beneath me, and the realization hit me like a punch to the gut.This wasn’t my room.I sat up, confusion clouding my mind. The room around me came into focus, a slow, creeping clarity. It was small, cozy, and had a certain warmth to it, someth

    Caroline’s P.O.VI sat across from Alpha Camden, my mind racing as I tried to piece everything together."But…Alpha Camden, this seems impossible," I began, my voice shaky but determined. "For so long, we couldn't make sense of the whole Lunar Sisters theory. I mean, Aurora’s human. How could she possibly be tied to me in that way, right? There’s no way she could be my Lunar Sister, not with her being... human."Alpha Camden leaned forward, his eyes locked on mine. "But you're starting to think there's something more to it, aren't you?"I nodded slowly, trying to keep my thoughts in order as I spoke. "Yes. At first, I couldn't wrap my head around it. But now, everything we've learned, everything that’s been happening, it might actually make sense." I paused, my voice growing more intense with each word."If it was a witch, someone tied to use magic, then that could explain everything. Maybe that person was connected to Aurora, in some way. And that’s why they targeted her father, hopi

    Caroline’s P.O.VI watched in silence as Alpha Camden stepped forward, his commanding presence filling the room. He gestured toward the door, and in walked a woman—at first glance, she looked like any ordinary middle-aged woman. Her pale skin and platinum blonde hair were unremarkable, but there was something about her, an energy that I couldn't quite place. She had an aura that made me feel unsettled, like she wasn’t quite human.Alpha Camden’s voice broke through my thoughts. “This is Harmona,” he said, his tone respectful.“She’s a witch, and she’s here to help us understand something we’ve found. The symbol we discovered on the body of Aurora’s father.”I glanced at the others, but my eyes kept returning to Harmona. She didn’t speak right away. Instead, she stood there, observing us with an intensity that made me feel like she was weighing each of us, seeing straight through to our core.Finally, she spoke, her voice smooth, almost melodic. “I’ve studied the symbol,” she began, he

    Caroline’s P.O.VAs soon as the car skidded to a stop in front of the pack house, I barely waited for the engine to turn off before I was out, my feet hitting the ground hard and fast. “Hey! Slow down, Care!” Jade shouted after me, his longer strides catching up with mine effortlessly.“Jade, you don’t understand! If he knows—if they know, this is bad. This is so, so bad!” My voice cracked, and I hated the way my panic was bleeding through, but it was impossible to hold it back. My legs felt like jelly, but I didn’t stop moving. I couldn’t.“You’re not going in there alone. I said I’ve got your back, and I meant it.” His voice was steady, calm—so unlike my own frantic rambling. He gripped my arm for just a second to slow me down, but I yanked it free, practically sprinting up the stairs leading to the Alpha’s office.“You don’t get it, Jade!” I snapped over my shoulder. “This isn’t about whether someone has my back. If Alpha Camden knows, if my dad—” My throat tightened, cutting off

    Aurora’s P.O.VI didn’t know how it happened, not really. One moment, Caleb and I were sitting there, our eyes locked, the silence between us loaded with something unspoken but palpable. Then, without a second thought, I leaned in, and his lips met mine. It was warm, electrifying, and utterly intoxicating. My entire world narrowed down to that moment—Caleb's arms wrapping around me, pulling me closer as if he never wanted to let go. The way his hand gently rested against the small of my back sent shivers racing up my spine. For the first time in forever, I felt fearless, as if nothing else mattered. But then, like a cruel interruption, the shrill sound of a phone ringing sliced through the quiet. It felt jarring, almost offensive, in its timing. Caleb and I broke apart, breathless, our gazes darting everywhere except at each other. Jade rose from his seat at the table, muttering something about it being an important call, and stepped away to answer it. The absence of his presence onl

    Aurora’s P.O.VI step forward, my gaze hard, my voice cold. "Step aside," I tell the girls, my tone leaving no room for negotiation."I have nothing to say to you, and I certainly don’t owe you any explanations. So move."But Taylor takes a step toward me, her eyes narrowed. I feel the air shift before she even speaks, the challenge in her eyes obvious."You think you can just walk in here and act like you're above all of us now?" she sneers, her voice dripping with sarcasm. "Just because you’ve changed your hair, changed your clothes, doesn’t mean you’ve changed your place."Before I can process what’s happening, she raises her hand and slaps me across the face. The sting is sharp, but I’m too stunned to move for a second. I cradle my cheek in disbelief, my fingers trembling for a moment. Did she really just...?But as I turn to look at the girls, they both seem to have a look of smug satisfaction on their face, like they had just won the lottery. Their confidence in doing something
