It was warm and cozy. I pulled the blanket closer, refusing to open my eyes as someone poked me."Eliza, wake up. You need to take your medicine." A gentle, soothing voice spoke calmly to me. I immediately opened my eyes and sat up abruptly as the events from earlier rushed back. I should be in a forest, not in a soft bed in some unfamiliar room. The only light in the room came from a lamp on a nightstand beside where Annie was sitting."Ouch!" A sharp pain shot through my stomach from the sudden movement. I looked down at my belly and noticed I was wearing a pink nightgown."I cleaned you up and got you dressed," Annie explained, noticing the confusion on my face. "What happened to you?""Didn't William tell you?" If I was with Annie, he must've explained something."No." She lowered her head, looking sad. She seemed worried. "He brought you in late last night and asked me to take care of you and give you your medicine on time. He told me you were the one who needed to explain what h

“How did you defeat the monster?” he asked me for the tenth time, with endless patience. I refused to answer him again, but it seemed like he was willing to spend the entire day doing this.“How did you defeat the monster?” he asked again a few more times before my patience finally ran out. I decided to play along and see where this would go.“By ripping its head off, of course!” It was an obvious question since that was the only way to kill a shadow monster. He smiled, knowing he had won this round, and kept going.“And how did you manage to do that?”“By biting down hard and tearing it off, obviously!” I gave him a sarcastic smile.“I’m in no rush. Let’s try this again, shall we?”“It’s just a matter of observation, planning, and moving quickly at the right moment,” I explained before he could repeat the question. “The fight didn’t even last a minute. Monsters can be incredibly strong because they show a certain level of intelligence, adapting to our movements and learning to defend

"I think you were a little harsh on him," my wolf whispered inside me. How could she pity that idiot? She should be worried about me!"I can’t stand him!" I shouted, releasing some of the anger and pain that were consuming me. I was still in tears when the door opened again a few moments later. It was Marta, holding a tray of food in her hands."Sweetie, what happened?""Marta, please get me out of here!" I begged between sobs."Sweetheart, I can’t. I have to follow orders. Did William hurt you?""Kind of..." I didn’t want to talk about it with her. It wasn’t like she was going to take my side anyway."Well, I was told to bring you a meal and make sure you eat.""And how exactly do you expect me to eat like this?" I was lying down, my hands cuffed to the headboard. Marta walked closer and gently adjusted the pillows, allowing my head to be slightly more elevated."Sorry, this is all I can do for now." She placed the tray on the nightstand, picked up a bowl of soup, and brought the spo

Annie snuggled up beside me on the bed, searching for the right words in her mind:"I met Liam in middle school. Even though I had good grades, I wasn’t very popular. One time, I absentmindedly bumped into him, and he kindly reached out his hand to help me pick up my books from the floor. When I found out Liam was part of the music club, I signed up just to be around him, even though I wasn’t very good. We ended up becoming good friends.In our last year of middle school, Liam got it in his head that he wanted to start a band, so I supported him and helped however I could. But we were missing two members—someone who could sing well and someone who was good at playing guitar.""And Nicolas fit both requirements," I guessed."Yeah, but convincing him to join wasn’t easy. I’ve known Nicolas since we were kids, and he’s always been really reserved. When he was little, he used to come to this house to play with William. But William has always been outgoing and friendly, so as he made more

I wouldn’t be able to sleep without calling my grandma first and letting her know I was okay. I grabbed my phone, ignoring the flood of notifications coming in, and dialed her number.“Hello! Eliza, sweetheart.”“Grandma, it’s me. Sorry for spending the night out without telling you.”“Sweetheart, don’t worry. Annie told me you dozed off by accident. It’s all good! Spending time with friends is important too. But is it okay for you to call me right now? Shouldn’t you be at school?”“Grandma, I wasn’t feeling well, so I didn’t go.”“What’s wrong? Do you need anything?”“Just a stomachache. Don’t worry, Annie and her mom are taking great care of me. She even skipped school today because of me.”“Sweetheart, I’ll come pick you up.”“No need, Grandma. I’ll be fine soon, you’ll see! Can I stay here with Annie for a few days?”“Any particular reason?”“Girl stuff. Nothing important!” I lied. “Could you pack a few changes of clothes and some toiletries for me? Since my stomach is still hurti

For some reason, the tension in the room had completely dissipated the moment Nicolas picked me up in his arms. As he carried me, I felt the warmth of his body surrounding me, and I drifted off to sleep.“I don’t think that’s the case!”“You’re not the only one who knows things now!”I woke up late at night to a heated argument right in my ears. Annie and Nicolas seemed to be debating something. I opened my eyes slightly, seeing Annie waving a record in front of the bed, while Nicolas sat at the foot of it, his back to me.“This isn’t the best album” Nicolas countered.“Actually, it is the best album” I forced myself to sit up and answered. “At least for me.”“See?” Annie flashed a triumphant smile and skipped over to me. “The lyrics are much deeper. You sounded more inspired, Lisa.”“Sorry, did we wake you?” Nicolas was no longer focused on the album debate. “We should’ve kept it down.”“I was going to wake her up anyway.” Annie dashed out of the room and came back moments later with

"This whole wolf healing thing is amazing!" Annie said, examining the spot where my wound used to be. This was my sixth day at her house, and all that remained was a faint scar.On the second day, Annie started going to class again and bringing me my assignments so I could study and do my homework at home. By the third day, I was already able to move around and take care of myself, but I decided to keep resting at her place until I was sure the wound wouldn’t reopen.Nicolas came to see me every day after school and always brought me something to eat. On the fourth day, Liam showed up too, but he didn’t stay long. For some reason, William hadn’t come to see me even once, which made me think he was either really pissed about what happened or just didn’t care."Thank you for everything!" I said to Marta as she removed the stitches.She had taken me in and cared for me like a daughter, with much more kindness than my own mother ever had. Annie was so lucky to have her."You’re amazing!

The week started with clear skies. I felt the sun on my face as I warmed up for the race. I glanced around at the unfamiliar faces of the other competitors, but none of them seemed to notice me. Meanwhile, Lorraine was getting looks from everyone, as if she were the strongest rival at Siram High."Ready to lose again?"A tall girl with curly black hair and dark skin stood face-to-face with Lorraine. A logo was printed on her white uniform—a red bow and arrow inside a stylish crest. Judging by the symbol, I could bet this was the school Nicolas had said was better than ours in this category. Apparently, they were better at racing too…"Sorry, sweetheart, I didn’t even notice you," Lorraine mocked. "Maybe that’s because you’re not good enough to win again this year.""Excuse me? You think you're better than me now?" The irritation on the competitor’s face was obvious in her aggressive stance. Lorraine just snorted and shrugged."I’m not talking about myself. I’m talking about our newbie

The real training was about to begin. A fight between two wolves was way more intense—and brutal. I felt awkward as I undressed and slipped on the robe they gave me.“No need to be shy, sweetheart. I’ll help you through it, okay?” said Kate, who was in the room with me, trying to reassure me.I walked barefoot out onto the backyard patio, with Kate right behind me. John and his sons were already there, standing at attention. The way they all stared as I approached made my face burn with embarrassment, and I ended up lowering my gaze.“Well, well… doesn’t look so tough now,” Arthur took the opportunity to tease me.“Since we know you’re a shy little wolf, we figured this was more appropriate,” John said, referring to the fact that his sons weren’t naked—they were wearing men’s robes.Wolves were used to running in packs, so nudity wasn’t a big deal for them. But for a lone wolf like me, it was a bit much. I was genuinely touched that they had considered how I’d feel.John went over a b

I took care of my hygiene before heading to my room and setting my alarm for the next morning. When I woke up, I felt completely refreshed and even helped Kate set the table for breakfast. When Nicolas and Arthur showed up, they looked like a pair of zombies."I'm dead. Do I really have to train today, Dad?" Arthur groaned."More than anyone," John replied. I could feel Arthur shooting daggers at me with his eyes, but I pretended not to notice. "Today and tomorrow, you’ll be doing hand-to-hand combat in human form. Eliza will be your opponent, and I’ll be supervising the whole thing."“I get to fight Eliza? Can’t wait,” Arthur said with a sly grin.“Should I tell him or do you want to?” Nicolas whispered, barely holding back a laugh.“Let the kid enjoy the moment,” I whispered back.“Just go easy on me, okay?” Arthur asked. I gave him a nod as I finished my breakfast.I stopped by my room to grab the training outfit they’d given me, then headed out to the garden. I started warming up

I’d be lying if I said I hadn’t gone back to talk to the Phantom Guy. Weeks had passed, and my routine of visiting the waterfall had become solid. Senior graduation was right around the corner—in fact, it was happening next week. Because of that, Beta John decided to run an intensive training program with his sons to get Nicolas ready for the alpha oath.“Phantom Guy, school’s officially over, and I passed with flying colors. I got the highest scores in the whole school, so I’m top of the class. Smart, huh? I even gave myself a little break from the piano lessons I teach Caroline. Some people aren’t on vacation yet, so they’re still going to school for tutoring or makeup classes. Anyone who doesn’t pass the retakes is gonna fail the year—but thankfully, that’s not my problem.” I laughed softly, swinging my feet in the water.“Anyway, I’ve got some news you might not like. Next Thursday is senior graduation, when students take the alpha oath. Then Saturday is the end-of-year dance. I’m

What felt like a long run for the wolves following me—clearly exhausted—had already become routine for me. I hardly noticed time passing anymore when I came here. I stopped in front of the waterfall and let out a howl. This was our final stop. Catching Annie’s attention, I motioned for her to follow me, and we stepped into the tent to change."You okay?" I asked. Her breathing was way too fast."Just a little tired. Try to go easier next time," she said with a gentle smile."Sure!" I was already finishing getting dressed while she was still sprawled out on the ground, catching her breath. "Don’t forget to put your swimsuit on underneath."She nodded slightly, and I stepped out of the tent, zipping it closed behind me. I didn’t see the boys, but I could smell they were nearby. I walked up to the waterfall and stood there for a while, staring at the water."Your wolf is beautiful," Nicolas said, coming up beside me."Thanks," I replied with a smile, then turned my gaze back to the water

John’s request totally caught me off guard. Kate ended up dropping her silverware in surprise, while Arthur was left speechless, totally confused. I looked down and thought about it for a bit. He didn’t pressure me, but I was worried it’d make things awkward if I just said no.“Why did you agree to that?” Nicolas asked once we were alone. He’d taken me to the practice room so we could talk. I sat on the floor, crossed my legs, and looked down.“I just wanted to show you some songs, but your dad answered the door—and he recognized me as the white wolf.” I shrugged, feeling a little discouraged. “So we ended up talking, and I kinda said more than I should’ve. I’m sorry.”Nicolas sat down in front of me on the floor. He didn’t look upset at all.“I’m surprised you opened up like that, but I don’t think it’s a bad thing. Actually, I’m kinda excited. My dad’s good at keeping secrets, so don’t worry. Plus, the training’s on private property outside of town, so no one’s gonna see us.”“I’m n

It hadn’t been easy to focus on studying, and I couldn’t concentrate on the classes I had to teach last week either. I’d spent three days in a row talking to the mysterious ghost, and I already missed being there. It was wildly irrational, but being at the waterfall had somehow become the best part of my day—the moment I looked forward to the most.“Aunt Lisa, is this right?” It was Tuesday’s class. Caroline tugged gently at the hem of my shirt, trying to get my attention.“You’re off on the timing, sweetheart,” I replied patiently.“You seem different. You were like this last class too.”“Like what?” I asked, puzzled.“Smiley! You’re smiling a lot.” I paused for a few seconds and realized she was right—I was smiling. I wouldn’t have noticed if she hadn’t pointed it out.“It’s like the music’s just flowing through my head, like a waterfall,” I said. Since the first time I interacted with Mr. Ghost, I’d written two brand-new songs from scratch and finished four others I’d left incomple

The week started off pretty much like any other—same old routine—but with one big difference that came from inside me. My feelings weren’t all over the place anymore. With my head clear, I started sketching out notes in one of my sheet music books during my free time. Even with exams going on, I managed to juggle studying and composing.I’ve always had a great memory, so one focused read-through was usually all I needed to do well on tests. A lot of the time, while answering questions, I could clearly picture the teacher explaining the material, word for word. Same with the textbooks—I could even recall the chapter and page the info was on.Thursday’s test was in the morning. I took my time turning it in so I could leave with Annie. Morgan quickly caught up to us and walked with us down the hallway. She and Annie were going back and forth about the questions. I could tell Morgan was straight-up complaining, while Annie was kinda defending the test, saying it wasn’t that bad. I stayed

Exactly three days had passed since I last saw him. Lisa’s heart was finally starting to calm down again. It was a Sunday morning, and all I wanted was to finish a song I’d been working on for the past few weeks. I strummed Preciosa, a persistent melody stuck in my head, but the words just wouldn’t come.I decided it was time to be alone for a few hours, to try and reconnect with myself. Leaving Preciosa behind, I walked into the forest and started running in my human form, completely shutting out all thoughts and feelings—including Lisa’s voice. I trained with her every night at dawn, but her constant longing for our mate had been draining my energy and killing my appetite.“I can’t believe this thing’s still here—and untouched,” I said, circling the tent I’d set up near the waterfall. There was no sign it had been used since. I was drenched in sweat after the long run. My eyes locked onto the waterfall, completely mesmerized by the view. It was the first time I’d come here during th

I walked home slowly after school, still drowsy and lost in the sweet memories. Out of nowhere, my phone started ringing, and I grabbed it eagerly. The name “Stupid Heir” flashing on the screen made my heart skip a beat.“Stupid Heir?” An irritated voice came from right behind me.“Oh, I didn’t see you there!” I gave him an innocent look, but he wasn’t fooled. “Well… it’s just funny, that’s all.”I let a mischievous smile slip. I couldn’t exactly change his contact name to boyfriend unless he was ready to own that title publicly.“Let’s go before someone sees us,” he said firmly.I followed him discreetly to his car, which was parked across the street. I’d been so out of it I hadn’t even noticed it. He drove in silence for a while before pulling over on a deserted road.“Did something happen?” I asked as soon as he cut the engine.“I have to head to the border base tomorrow. I’ll be there for intensive training, so we won’t be seeing each other for a while.”“How long?” I asked, worri
