When Eva finally woke up, she found herself in a different room. The walls were white, the air was sterile, and a strange man stood over her. He introduced himself as Dr. Matthews, a psychiatrist who specialised in treating patients with memory loss."I will be here to help you, Eva. Don't you worry?" He smiled at his patient and watched as she dug her nails into the pillow resting on her lap. Eva felt a chill run down her spine as she realised what was happening. She had been drugged and taken to this facility against her will. Her baby and siblings were nowhere to be found, and she had no idea where they were or what was happening to them. She needed to get away from here and find them. If only Sebastian was here. None of this would have happened. She felt anger towards whoever had caused this to happen. She knew it made her sound crazy, but someone was behind all this, and she had no clue who. Dr Matthews explained to Eva that she had suffered a severe head injury in the car acc
Eva's heart pounded as she listened to the woman's words. Fear and confusion swirled inside her. How could these people know so much about her? What did they want? "Who are you, and what do you want from me?" Eva demanded to know. The woman smiled sinisterly, relishing in Eva's panic. "You are special, Eva. And we need you to fulfil your destiny." Eva's mind raced, trying to make sense of it all. "I don't understand. What destiny? I want to find my family and go back to my normal life. Just go away." The woman's smirk widened. "Oh, but your normal life is long gone, Eva. You were chosen for something greater. Something that will change the world as we know it." Eva's eyes widened in disbelief. This had to be some sick and twisted joke. She couldn't possibly have any connection to world-altering events. "I don't believe you. Let me go!" Eva struggled against her captors, desperate to escape the clutches of this madwoman. The woman's expression turned dark, and their s
The door flew open, and Eva looked up, half asleep; she was beyond exhausted, but the lady was back. She had a smirk on her face as she looked down at her prisoner. “Are you ready to cooperate?” she insisted, but Eva did not respond. “You know that you will not be able to get out of here, silly girl. Your Wolf and powers are useless to you now. Your mate will never want you again.” she chuckled with amusement. She stood with a hand on her hip and flicked her long brunette hair from her face as she walked away. “Wait. Is Sebastian alive? Why can't I feel him?”Eva called out desperately with tears streaming down her face, but the woman slammed the door shut behind her. Now Eva was alone and unsure how to get out of this place. Her mind raced as she tried to piece together what the woman had said about her family and mate. Was Sebastian still alive? Had he been captured as well? So many questions. She had thought he was dead. She missed him so much that her family, the entire pack. S
After a few moments, Clara's eyes fluttered open, her gaze fixed on Alpha Duane. "I have a sense of where Eva might be," she stated with certainty. “Go ahead.” The Alpha was listening. She cleared her throat before continuing. All eyes were on her. "There's a hidden facility near the hospital. It seems to be where she was taken." Alpha Duane's eyes narrowed, and he slammed his fist into his desk, causing Sienna to jump in fright. Jason held her to his chest to calm her down, and she smiled at him gratefully but remained silent. “We'll go there immediately," Alpha Duane declared, turning to address Jason. "Get your gear ready. We have a rescue mission to undertake." “Wait. Let me go in there and fetch her, Alpha Duane. I can handle it. If you're warriors go in, it could make things worse. Plus, she knows me better than any of you.” Gabriel suddenly spoke up, and Alpha Duane raised his eyebrows, thinking for a moment. “Bring her to me safely, or you will suffer the consequences
"Alpha, I have located the girl," Gabriel announced, gently placing Eva in front of Alpha Duane. Jason and Sienna were left astounded by Gabriel's swift retrieval of Eva. They hadn't anticipated him finding her with such effortless grace. Alpha Duane, brimming with curiosity, wasted no time in seeking answers. "Where did you discover her?" he questioned urgently. With utmost clarity, Gabriel unraveled the gripping tale of Eva's confinement within the warehouse and her valiant attempt to escape. His relentless pursuit of the individuals responsible for her abduction soon bore fruit, leading to her eventual rescue Alpha Duane studied Eva carefully, his expression unreadable. Jason and Sienna watched anxiously, unsure of what their leader's reaction would be. "Kidnapped from the hospital, you say?" Alpha Duane questioned, his voice filled with concern. Eva nodded, her voice trembling slightly. "Yes, they took me and kept me in that warehouse. They were saying something about want
Sebastian's consciousness slowly emerged from the depths of darkness, his mind grappling with confusion as his senses slowly awakened. As his eyes fluttered open, he was met with a chilling scene. His surroundings offered no comfort or familiarity, for he found himself in a cold, windowless room. The air was stale as if time had stood still within the confines of those four walls. A dim light from above cast eerie shadows across the room, barely illuminating the corners. Sebastian's heart quickened. Panic gushed through him, only to escalate when he tried to move and discovered chains tightly binding his hands and feet to the unforgiving walls. The cold metal bit his skin, leaving a lingering sense of vulnerability. He wondered how he had got there; how had this happened? How long had he been locked up in this awful room? Sebastian's memory failed him, like shattered fragments of a forgotten past slipping through his fingers. How had he ended up in this desolate place? Frustrat
The stranger hesitated momentarily, seeming to gather their thoughts before speaking. "I am Amelia," they finally replied, their voice gentle yet filled with a hint of sorrow. "I am not your captor, Sebastian. I am here to help you." Sebastian's mind raced, trying to process the situation. He had many questions, but his instincts told him to trust this person, even if their presence was inexplicable. "How did you find me? Why am I here?" he asked, a mix of desperation and hope in his voice. Amelia took a step closer, their eyes filled with a kind of understanding that Sebastian had longed for. They reached into their pocket and retrieved a minor key, approaching him cautiously. "I can't explain everything right now," Amelia said softly, their voice trembling slightly. "But all will be revealed soon. For now, let me free you from these chains." Sebastian's heart leapt at the prospect of his liberation. He watched Amelia closely as she unlocked the chains, the metal clinki
Amelia smiled warmly at his question. "We start by finding your child and keeping them safe. We gather our allies and prepare for the fight against the Shadowscale. But first, we must get you to safety and work on unlocking your true potential as a guardian." Sebastian and Amelia left the building and went to a nearby car. Along the way, they kept their eyes peeled for signs of followers or danger. Once inside the car, Amelia turned to Sebastian with a severe expression. "There's something I need to tell you," she said, her voice low. "What is it?" Sebastian asked with concern. "Your child is not just any child," Amelia explained. "They are the key to unlocking the power of the guardians. Without them, we might never be able to face the Shadowscale." Sebastian's heart raced with panic. He thought of the dangers ahead and the weight of responsibility he bore. But before he could ask any questions, a group of black SUVs surrounded them, blocking their path. "Sebastian, we
After a few minutes of walking, Granny Agnes stopped in front of a large stone door. The door was adorned with intricate carvings and symbols similar to those on the tombs they had seen earlier."This is the entrance to the Lady's lair," Granny Agnes said, her voice low and serious. "We'll need to be careful. She's not going to give up without a fight."Ava nodded, her eyes locked on the door. "I'm ready," she said, her voice firm. “Twins?”Millie and Eddie nodded in agreement. “We are ready.” Granny Agnes smiled a hint of determination in her eyes. "Good. Let's get this over with."With a deep breath, Granny Agnes pushed the door open, revealing a dimly lit chamber filled with rows of ancient artefacts. The air was thick with the scent of old books and dust.Suddenly, a figure emerged from the shadows. It was a tall, gaunt woman with long silver hair and piercing green eyes. She was dressed in a flowing black gown, and her presence seemed to fill the room."Welcome back, children,"
As they walked through the passageway, the air grew thick with an eerie mist that seemed to cling to their skin. Eddie and Millie couldn't shake the feeling that they were being watched, and the humming noise had grown so loud that it was almost deafening. Ava led the way, her eyes fixed on some point ahead. They stumbled over roots and rocks, their hearts pounding with fear. Suddenly, Ava stopped dead in her tracks. "Wait," she whispered. "Do you see that?" Eddie and Millie followed her gaze, and their eyes widened in horror. Ahead of them lay a vast, dark chamber with rows of ancient tombs. The air was thick with the scent of decay and death, and the humming noise seemed to come from within the tombs themselves. "What is this place?" Millie whispered, her voice trembling with fear. Ava's eyes locked onto hers. "This is the Lady's tomb," she said. "And we have to get out of here before she awakens." Eddie and Millie exchanged a desperate glance. They knew they had to get out of
The Lady's eyes seemed to bore into Eddie's soul as she spoke, her words dripping with malice. "You are wrong, boy," she said. "I am your mother. And you are my children, my dears."Eddie felt a chill run down his spine as he stared at the Lady. He shook his head, trying to clear the fog from his mind. "No," he repeated. "You're not our mother. Our mother is dead."The Lady's expression turned cold, her eyes flashing with anger. "You don't know what you're talking about," she spat. "You don't know who I am or what I am capable of."Millie stepped forward, her eyes flashing with defiance. "We don't care who you are or what you're capable of," she said. "We're not going anywhere with you."The Lady's smile grew wider, her eyes glinting with amusement. "Oh, but you will," she said. "You will do as I say because I can make you."As she spoke, the air around them grew darker and more menacing. The trees seemed to loom closer, their branches reaching like skeletal fingers. Eddie and Millie
"Hey!" he yelled out. "There you two are. We need to get out of here! Now!"The twins exchanged a glance, and without hesitation, they followed Jason back into the forest.“Where are we going, Jason?” Millie asked as she held her brother's hand and ran behind Jason. "We're going to the safe house," Jason replied, breathing heavily as he dodged low-hanging branches and leapt over roots. "We must get out of the woods before the pack tracks us down."The twins kept pace with Jason, their eyes scanning the surrounding trees for any signs of pursuit. As they ran, they could hear the distant sounds of battle growing fainter, replaced by the rustling of leaves and snapping of twigs.After a few minutes of running, the trees began to thin out, and they saw a small clearing in the distance. In the centre of the clearing stood a small cottage surrounded by a thick hedge of thorny bushes.Jason led them to the cottage, where they burst through the door and found themselves in a cosy, dimly lit
“Please. Give me a chance. I do not deserve it, but I want to correct my wrongs.” Seraphina continued to plead, and Alpha Duane scowled. He had had enough of her already. “Fine, prove yourself. One foot wrong, and you are to meet your end.” Alpha Duane insisted as he gestured for everyone to follow him. “Let's go.” Seraphina felt a rush of relief as the pack began to come together to form a plan to take down the Shadowscale and protect Alpha Duane and the children. Despite the betrayal and distrust that had clouded their relationships, they all knew that they needed to unite to overcome this dangerous threat. As they gathered in a circle, the weight of their mission hung heavy in the air. Seraphina spoke up. "We need to act quickly and decisively to outsmart the Shadowscale. They are powerful, but together we are stronger. We must devise a plan to protect Alpha Duane and this pack and the children at all costs." Jason nodded in agreement, his eyes reflecting his determina
As Seraphina sat in her cell, her expression hardened with anger and frustration. She knew that her time was running out, and she needed to find a way to explain her actions to the pack, especially to Jason. Of course, they would all be against her for getting their Alpha hurt. She thought that maybe if she could get him on her side and explain it so that he could stand by her side and protect her from the wrath, she would have no choice but to face it. Jason stood guard outside her cell, his features set in anger and sadness at the betrayal she had committed. Feeling a sense of desperation, Seraphina called out to Jason, her voice carrying a hint of vulnerability that was rarely seen from her. "Jason, there's something you need to know,” she said. “What is it, Seraphina? I don't have time for games,” Jason sighed, his voice tinged with impatience as he tried to mask the concern that flickered in his eyes. He had always been a man of action, and the situation's urgency left
Inside the hospital wing, Alpha Duane lay unconscious on the bed, and his features strained from the injuries he had sustained during the rogue attack. The room was filled with sad worry as the pack members gathered around, anxiously awaiting any improvement in their Alpha's condition. Eddie and Millie arrived, and they wasted no time assessing Alpha Duane's injuries, their expert hands moving swiftly as they worked to stabilise him and administer the necessary treatments. The pack breathed, hoping and praying for their Alpha to pull through.Amelia observed as the Twins worked together to help the Alpha to heal. She was impressed by their abilities, considering they were so young. Meanwhile, in the cells, Seraphina sat silently, her expression cold and devoid of remorse. Despite the accusations against her, she remained defiant, her words dripping with arrogance and disdain for the pack's authority.“Seraphina, why did you do this? What did you gain from it?” Eva yelled angrily as
Almost an hour had passed since Alpha Duane had left with Seraphina. Eva had settled the baby down and felt more at ease now Seraphina had gone. She didn't like the way she made her feel. As Eva made her way down the corridors and back out of the pack house, she bumped into someone she wasn't expecting to see. “Wait, what? Gabriel, how are you here? What's going on?” Eva gasped, incredulous. “Gabriel?” Sebastian echoed, his eyes widened in disbelief. He couldn’t fathom what he was seeing and hearing. Eva turned to Sebastian, panic evident in her eyes. “It's Gabriel. He's back,” she said, her words stuttering as she tried to process the situation. “But Alpha Duane has gone with Seraphina to look for you. She said she knew you and wanted to help you,” Gabriel explained, taking a clumsy step back, almost losing his balance. Sebastian caught him just in time, helping him steady himself, while Eva quickly fetched a chair for him to sit in. Gabriel slowly settled into the chair, placin
Millie and Eddie watched with curiosity as Seraphina conversed with Alpha Duane and the rest of the pack. But the mysterious newcomer piqued their interest, her past and intentions shrouded in shadow.“There is something about her, I just cannot put my finger on it.” Millie whispered to her twin brother. As they observed from a distance, Eva approached her siblings with urgency in her eyes. She knew the dangers that lurked within the Pack Lands, the treachery of the Shadowscale clan, and the importance of not letting their guard down."Keep your distance from Seraphina," Eva warned, her voice firm. "I don't trust her, and neither should you. We can't afford to let our guard down, especially with someone who bears the mark of the Shadowscale."Millie and Eddie exchanged a hesitant glance, torn between their curiosity and Eva's warning. They respected their older sister's instincts, knowing that she had always been wise beyond her years."But what if Seraphina truly has changed? What i
