Their journey was a brief respite, a fleeting moment where the weight of their burdens was lifted, if only for a short while. But they both knew the peace was temporary, a calm before the storm of chaos that awaited them in the coming hours or days.

Camilla lay on Lawrence’s chest in the back of the car, her fingers tracing absent patterns on his shirt. They’d been stealing glances at each other since they stepped into the car; the unspoken connection between them was more profound than words.

“Do you remember what we used to say when we were younger and deeply in love?” Camilla asked, her voice a soft murmur as she gazed up at him.

Lawrence’s lips curled into a half-smile. “Refresh my memory,” he teased, his voice warm and inviting. “It’s a bit hazy in my head at the moment.”

“We once promised each other that we’d travel the world together once we were married,” she reminded him, a nostalgic smile playing on her lips.

Lawrence’s eyes twinkled with mischief. “Well, there’s still time

    "Your silence speaks volumes, Bella," Luke observed, his gaze never leaving her as he awaited her response to his probing question about her dealings with Elder Albert.Bella hesitated, her mind racing to craft a reply that would deflect suspicion from Luke in any form. "He’s an elder of the pack. It’s only natural that I consult him on matters where his experience and knowledge are valuable," she finally replied, her voice calm but her thoughts calculating.She hoped her words would mask the truth of what was really going on between her and the elder.Lawrence, who had been silently listening, frowned. Disappointment flickered in his eyes as he said, "The elder you choose to associate with says a lot about your judgement, Bella. And Albert... he doesn’t exactly inspire confidence."Bella’s gaze sharpened as she turned to Lawrence, a challenge in her eyes. "Do you have something against Albert?""He’s too cunning," Luke interjected, his voice low and filled with warning. "A man like

    “The elders might use this against me if they ever find out,” Lawrence muttered, his voice low and filled with unease and tension.“Keeping the truth about my son’s condition hidden is a choice I must maintain. You never know who’s listening... or watching; we need to be really careful.”.As he spoke, the chilling thought of an elder's involvement in Camilla’s attack crept into his mind, leaving him feeling vulnerable and exposed.Luke nodded slowly, his eyes narrowing in thought. “Distrusting those who wield power over your life is a wise move, Lawrence. You never know who’s lurking in the shadows, waiting to strike.”Camilla, who had been quietly listening to the conversation, stepped forward. “Your insight and counsel have always been invaluable to us. Your help will never go unrewarded; the pack remains at your service anytime you require any kind of help.”But Lawrence’s friend, with a calm yet distant gaze, shook his head. “I don’t seek mortal rewards, Camilla.

    "What do you think?" Jane finally asked, breaking the heavy silence that Bella had created as she mulled over the suggestion. "There are many paths to ascend as Luna, but this... this is the most fitting, in my opinion."Bella remained silent, her mind racing through the implications. Finally, she leaned in, her voice barely above a whisper."How do we do it without leaving any trace that leads back to us?" she asked, her eyes darkening with determination. The gravity of Jane's proposal had sunk in, and now she was fully committed to every bit of it as it came.She moved closer to Jane, brushing back her hair that had fallen forward, tossing it behind her shoulders as she settled beside her on the couch.Jane’s lips curled into a knowing smile. She rose, walking over to the mirror, her back to Bella, as she gazed at her reflection. In a voice just above a whisper, she said, "Sometimes, to get what you want, you have to do things that most would consider cruel."Her reflection smirked

    "I've made countless mistakes in my life, but this won't be one of them," Bella murmured, “not at all,” her voice cold and resolute as she addressed Jane in the dimly lit chamber.Jane remained silent, her eyes darting around the room as Bella continued. "He’s just a child, Jane. Eliminating him should be simple," Bella added, her gaze fixed on Jane, searching for any sign of agreement.Jane hesitated, her fingers fidgeting slightly. The tension in the room was palpable. She finally spoke, her voice barely above a whisper, "Do we really have to involve anyone else? The fewer people know, the safer we are. We can't afford another mistake like we made with Camilla."Bella turned to the large, ornate window, her eyes narrowing as she surveyed the scene outside. Despite Lawrence's orders to disperse, some pack members lingered, their shadows stretched long in the evening light. Bella’s eyes settled on her son, Frank, standing among them. A faint smile crossed her lips before her gaze shif

    "If he doesn’t have any useful information, he won’t be leaving this tent with his head still on his neck," Luke declared, his voice as cold and unyielding as the steely gaze fixed on Lawrence.Lawrence met his stare with an equally resolute expression. "His fate is sealed, Luke. The only reason he's still breathing is because of the value he might possess." With that, Lawrence turned on his heel, heading towards the mansion, leaving Luke to march off in the opposite direction towards the elders.As Luke approached the gathered elders, the weight of his new responsibilities pressed heavily on his shoulders. Yet he stood tall, his voice cutting through the air like a blade. "I have little to say, but hear me well: return to your homes, hold your families close, for war is upon us."A murmur of agreement rippled through the crowd, growing into a unified roar as the elders and the others repeated in one voice, "War is coming!" They dispersed slowly, each pair of footsteps echoing the gri

    “I hear you’ve got some important information for us,” Luke said, his voice smooth yet laced with an underlying threat. “Why don’t you share it with us now? My ears are starving for what you’ve got.” His eyes bore into the spy, who had barely clung to life after the brutal interrogation. Though it was obvious that he still needed some medical attention.Luke had made his way to the room where the man was being kept, his pace quick and purposeful. He had just returned from the wolf soldiers' training arena, his mind still sharp and restless from the drills. But this was his true mission. He needed to extract the information before anyone else, even before Lawrence. There was no way he was going to let the pack leader get ahead of him on this, he said to himself.The plan was simple. Get the information. End the man’s life. Luke had no intention of letting a potential enemy linger in the mansion any longer than necessary. As he approached the weakened spy, a cold resolve settled over

    “Speak now or forever, hold your silence. But know this—whatever consequences your silence brings to you, you alone will bear them,” Luke warned, his voice calm but laced with a deadly promise.The man hesitated, his gaze flickering with fear and resignation. He knew the weight of his decision and the price of the secrets he harbored. Finally, with a heavy breath, he spoke, his voice trembling but determined.“Our pack isn’t planning to unleash all our foot soldiers at once. We’re ready to face you, but we have a different strategy,” he revealed, each word measured as if he were navigating a minefield.Despite the pain wracking his body, the man pushed himself up on the bed, wincing as he did so. Yet he forced the words out, determined to fulfill the promise he had made, even if it meant betraying his own people. At this point, his life was what he sought to protect.“The rest of our soldiers will encircle your pack when the fight begins. Once you’re engaged, we’ll close in from all s

    Even with the sunshine streaming through the window illuminating the tiles, the hospital room appeared to be freezing.Camilla laid her back on the thin pillows behind her, feeling self-conscious in the poorly woven hospital gown.Her arms were rendered immobile to her body by the metal cuffs whose edges had been tenderising her skin. The sound of chains rattled softly as she moved, trying to get into a position that was not too cramped within the confines.However, her focus was nowhere near her physical discomfort. She was exonerated for poisoning Bella's son.However, her suffering was not finished. Bella’s schemes had left emotional as well as physical scars on her.Camilla hadn’t finished the struggle, however. Her name remained sullied, and there were people in the pack, and even more so in the elders, who were not ready to absolve her.They wanted her to be put away until everyone was sure that there was nothing to be apprehensive about. Lawrence was trying to resist but it was

    The sound of machines in the hospital filled the room where Camilla was, still a bit weak but recuperating.She was connected to an IV and had her wrists bandaged due to the straps that had restrained her to the bed—reminders of the fact, that needless to say, she was still considered a criminal and a patient at the same time.The grey hospital gown had been too oversized for her body. There was no mistaking the patience strength in her eyes, the vividness of life that once inhabited her can only be remembered.But Lawrence transcended. He stood next to her bed with his broad shoulders drooping, bloodshot eyes bearing the evidence of sleepless nights.His hand was just above hers, wanting to hold her hand but scared at the prospect of hurting her more.The vow he made to her was that he would bring her justice and that was one vow he would keep. But being here in this common room, looking at her wasting away from a fictitious story, every single second was a shame that he could not es

    The heavy door of the female prison traced a long sound down the dark corridor.Camilla sat on the hard, cold mattress, looking at the wall in search of the clusters in it.She had become used to this solitary confinement, this waiting that went for hours in this agonisingly silent place, to the thinking that after all her efforts, it was Bella’s betrayal that would ruin her.Yet deep down, it was not only fear. There was something else. Lawrence was on the warpath. He had sworn an oath to resolve the matter and extricate her from this predicament.There was no option but to endure. However, the fear about the impending threat that had been increasing over the past few days would not go away, even if Camilla wanted it to.The other female prisoners had started to gossip about something different. They would look at her sometimes with suspicion; now, that look seemed more calculated. The security men, too appeared sharper, more alert. Something was in the offing. She could sense it.As

    Bella paced around her hospital room and attempted to bite the urge to panic that was building up in her system.She was in the bathroom of Frank's room thinking of how Lawrence had approached her that morning.Frank, on the other side, was not helping her, as he was clenching his jaw, making it difficult for her to ignore the tension building up in her chest.Things were going south, and the efforts of the lawyer representing Lawrence were making the situation worse every moment.She had thought that she could turn the tables—contain the situation the way she always did. Lawrence’s doggedness in wanting to lick Camilla’s accusation clean even the further it was from her was slowly but surely tearing her apart.The lawyer was a brilliant and unbending executioner who had been pricking her for weeks.Bella had not taken him very seriously, as she thought that he would eventually give up on finding any truth. But she did not expect this level of meticulousness. He was starting to dig up

    Lawrence perched himself on the edge of the hospital bed, his fingers playing a drumroll along the cold metallic edge. He was cosy in deep thoughts, yet his brain was tyranny, struck with several thoughts at the same time. The young boy who was his child, was unconscious in the hospital, and so many devices were attached to his tiny form. Every beep, every breath, was painful to hear, breaking the heavy silence in the room, indicating the seriousness of the matter.Moreover, there had been additional problems concerning Frank which even the doctors could not explain. The only plausible explanation had been the poison theory up until that point. At least until the head researcher on Frank's case, Dr Nolan had wanted to speak to him privately.Embarrassingly enough, every sensation caused in him was mixed with tension. The chilling thought of Camilla tortured him. She was in a prison cell, waiting for her turn to be acquitted of the charges of poisoning Frank. It had all been Bella’s tr

    At the moment her heels clicked on the ground, and the enormous boughs of metal gates crashed behind her, panic coursed through Camilla. The implacable ambience of the barricade encased her in a thick layer of mist.She heard her footsteps bouncing off the walls in the long stretch that had steel-barred cells on all sides. The other occupant who was being brought in looked at her with a fierce intensity that signalled annoyed, hollow, and accusing silence.The door was opened by the guards and she made to come in. Camilla avoided eye contact with her because she looked like trouble.Hours passed, and she was still hearing them constantly bickering about her poisoning a child.She had to remind herself that this was not true. It was a horrible fiction, one that she found herself accusatory burning into the present time because of Bella's machinations.For having allegedly attempted to poison Bella's child, Camilla had lost her freedom and her self-respect.Now, stuck in the exhausted ex

    Camilla was in prison. How could all this have happened so fast? First, it was that room where they interrogated her, and the next thing she knew, she landed in a cell.It still couldn't fully get into her head what had happened. It was like an Andy Warhol painting facade of surrealness that would eventually take the form of reality when she was out of it with her sanity intact.A moment before, Camilla had stood in front of the door to her cell as it creaked open under the command of the guard's key.The guard himself didn't say a word.Once she was inside, the heavy door slammed shut with a loud click.Saying nothing, he turned and walked away. If her cell was an inch shorter, she wouldn't be able to stand in it. The only furniture was a steel toilet, while the only lighting came from one window made of thick iron.Camilla sat down on the bed and put her head in her hands. She did not cry. Lawrence would rescue her; he had to do that. He had promised her thus.Hours had passed after

    Camilla sat on the chair where she was left alone after Lawrence had gone. She could hear the guards talking from the other side. But the only thing that came to her mind was how all of these happened. It was just a beautiful morning, in less than twenty-four, and she was accused of murder. A child murder.The accusation against her was so sudden that she had no idea what was going on. “Poison?” The word left her mouth and she thought of how she could even get a hold of one“Poisoning a child?”It was unimaginable to her.Yet, here she was. In jail. Accused of something so despicable. It made her feel sick.She rubbed her hands all over her face trying to breathe. Everything wasn't going her way at all.“Who?” she whispered. . “Who could have possibly done this?”She racked her brain, thinking of every moment leading up to the incident. He was fine. Then she served him his food along with Gia and George. He began to have a seizure.She knew she was in big trouble. Everything seemed
