I didn't know whether to believe everything Kessler said... at least most of it. I believe Riley's story, I think he's capable of that and much more. But with Kessler... there's the fact that he lied to me.

"Eva, I wouldn't deceive you. I just wanted to protect you and keep you from getting stressed about all this. I don't want to see you worried. Leave it to me. I'll take care of Riley and his pack."

"When did we get into this situation? Will there ever be a moment without any kind of problem?"

"I'm sorry," he murmured, gazing at the road, looking sad and vulnerable.

Ugh! I can't believe the immense power Kessler has over me. I can't see him like this because it makes me want to hug him and make him feel better.

Stay strong, Eva, stay strong. Despite everything, Kessler lied to you.

"I want to go back to classes," I told him.

"Eva, tell me we're okay, please," he took my arm, "Even if you don't want to, I'll always be close to you. So it's better if you accept me willingly because oth

    I opened my eyes with some difficulty. My back hurt, and I felt my breathing was labored. I couldn't quite remember what happened; all I could feel was the heaviness of my body and the pain in it. I was in a hospital bed, and as my vision cleared, I sat up. I had an IV drip, a neck brace, and some glass cuts on my arms.Then I started to remember what had happened: the wolf and Kessler. That huge wolf had thrown me with great force towards Kessler's car, and after that, I didn't remember anything.God, I thought I was going to die. I took a deep breath, feeling the pain in my chest as I breathed.Where is everyone? I looked around to find the button to call the nurses, and when I found it, I pressed it.Dad must be really worried; I hate giving my father worries. The door opens, and a nurse appears."Good morning, Miss Bailey, how are you feeling?""Sore," I said. "Is my father around?""Yes, your brother and your boyfriend too. They've been waiting all night for you to wake up.""I w

    I return home with a bittersweet feeling. The comforting smell of my room is a balm to my wounded soul, but the truth I now know weighs on me like a millstone. I sit on the edge of my bed, watching the patterns of shadows dance on the walls as night falls over the town.My mind is full of unanswered questions and shocking revelations. Can I trust Kessler after all? And what about my own brother, Lucas, whose secrets now threaten to change everything? Confusion and fear swirl inside me, forming a whirlwind of emotions that threatens to engulf me.I wonder what I should do next. Should I confront Kessler and demand answers? Or should I keep silent and try to find a way to reconcile the truth with my feelings for him? And then there's my brother, Lucas, whose fears and internal struggles are now apparent to me. How can I help him deal with his new reality as a wolf, when I can barely deal with my own?As I delve into a sea of thoughts, one thing becomes clear: the decisions I make from n

    We step out into the backyard, bundled up in coats to protect ourselves from the cold that seems to penetrate to the bone. The sky is dark and threatening, with heavy clouds announcing the imminent arrival of rain at any moment.The air is charged with electricity, and I can feel the tension in the atmosphere as we watch the swirling clouds above us. The wind blows gently, carrying with it the fresh smell of wet earth and anticipating the rain that is about to come.We sit on some old garden furniture, looking out at the gray and gloomy landscape with a mixture of melancholy and anticipation. Despite the unpleasant weather, there's something comforting about being outdoors, facing the storm together."I think we should head inside," suggests Lottie, rising cautiously as the first drops of rain begin to fall. "I don't want you to catch a cold after everything you've been through."I nod resignedly, feeling the weight of exhaustion and pain in my body as I stand up to follow her back to

    The sound of the main door echoed through the house, announcing the arrival of our guests. My heart pounded as we made our way to the living room, where Dad was already waiting to greet Kessler and Jonny.As we entered the room, my eyes met Kessler's, and for a moment, everything seemed to stop. There was a mix of emotions in his gaze, a combination of regret and determination that left me breathless."Hey, Eva," he said with a shy smile, breaking the uncomfortable silence that had settled between us. "It's good to see you again."Now we had to act like strangers.My lips curved into a forced smile as I struggled to maintain composure. "Hello, Kessler," I replied, trying to hide the storm of emotions swirling inside me.Beside me, Lottie gave my hand a gentle squeeze, offering silent support in this tense moment. Her eyes reflected understanding and empathy as we faced the situation together."It looks like you arrived just in time," Dad interjected, trying to break the tension with h

    I woke up calmly in the soft morning light filtering through the partially open curtains, relishing the luxury of being able to rise without hurry or worry. The room was quiet and serene, and I allowed myself a moment longer in bed, savoring the feeling of freedom that accompanied a day without commitments or schedules to adhere to.I lazily stretched beneath the warm sheets, feeling my muscles slowly relax after a night of restful sleep. I closed my eyes for a moment, savoring the feeling of peace and tranquility that filled the room, allowing myself to simply be present in the moment, without worrying about the past or the future.After a while, I finally decided to get out of bed, stretching my arms toward the ceiling and yawning softly. I wrapped myself in my favorite robe and headed to the kitchen, determined to indulge myself with a special breakfast that I would prepare myself.As I made a steaming cup of coffee and some fluffy pancakes, I let my thoughts wander freely, enjoyin

    Lottie and I quickly entered the house as it started drizzling, seeking refuge from the light shower that had begun. We decided to make the most of our time indoors and took out our class notes from the day to update our notebooks.As we worked on our school assignments, the gentle sound of rain tapping softly against the windows created a cozy and peaceful atmosphere in the house. The scent of wet earth seeped through the cracks, adding a touch of freshness to the air.Amid discussions about the latest topics in class and occasional jokes, time flew by. Lottie and I supported each other, sharing ideas and helping out with difficult points, making studying much more manageable.As the rain continued outside, we remained immersed in our studies, completely absorbed in the world of mathematics and history. Although school assignments could sometimes be challenging, it was always comforting to have Lottie by my side, turning even the most boring moments into something fun and enjoyable.

    Kessler and I were heading to the kitchen when we heard the crash of the door. We ran to the living room and Lucas was already gone.“He went to the forest,” Kessler said with urgency in his voice. “He wants to transform and he shouldn’t be alone, he could make a mess.”“What? I’m going with you,” I said, determined not to let Lucas face this alone.“No, stay, it’s dangerous,” Kessler insisted before running toward the forest. But I wasn’t going to sit idly by. I followed them without hesitation.The cold night air hit my face as I ran toward the forest, following Kessler. The rain had made the ground slippery, and the wet branches made the path difficult, but I couldn’t stop. I knew Lucas needed our help.In the distance, I glimpsed Kessler’s figure moving through the trees with supernatural agility. The full moon shone brightly, illuminating our path and casting long, mysterious shadows. My heart pounded with adrenaline and fear of the unknown.Finally, I reached a clearing in the f

    The air in the room was filled with tense silence, only broken by Lucas's ragged breaths. Kessler and I exchanged looks, both knowing that this was just the beginning of a long and challenging journey."We need to better understand his transformations," Kessler said as he struggled to stand up. "It's getting harder each time."I nodded, feeling the weight of responsibility. "We can't let him go through this alone," I replied, looking at Lucas who was now resting more peacefully. "We have to find a way to help him control his changes."Kessler leaned over the nearby table and pulled out an old book, its pages worn with time. "There might be something here," he said, carefully flipping through the book. "This diary belonged to someone who went through the same thing. Maybe their experiences will give us a clue."As Kessler read aloud, I stayed watching Lucas. In his wolf form, he still retained a part of his essence, a connection that hadn't been severed despite the transformations. I g

    "At what party?""On the mountain, the highest one. They always throw parties there.""Are there any witnesses who can confirm that information?"I bit my lip, remembering that neither Maia nor Junior made it to the party yesterday. I also didn't see Jeremiah; the only ones who could say they saw me are Monica and Miranda.Great."Liam.""Anyone else?""Uh, yes! T-Theo... Theo W-White.""Anyone else?""Those are the only ones I know.""Alright. One moment, please." The police officer leaves the room, and I'm left alone. From movies, I know that the huge mirror in front of me is a window to another room where they are also watching me.I can't believe Jeremiah is dead, oh my God, what happened to him? My hands are shaking, I feel very anxious. I don't like this place.The officer returns minutes later."We've called Theo White, and he's on his way. You need to give us the names of at least two more people. We need proof, not just words."Whatever."There are two girls that... I had pro

    "Miss, step back, please!"The wolf growled louder and approached."We're going to shoot!""Don't shoot, please!"I looked at the wolf, who now seemed to realize what was happening. It was cornered. For a moment, I thought it would run away, but no, its demeanor returned to that of an angry wolf, and it advanced towards me.A gunshot.And another."No!"They hit the wolf, but it didn't stop. The wolf ran towards the forest, but it was injured. People applauded the police for hitting it. I ran after it, thinking I must be crazy for doing this, but I couldn't help feeling that the wolf needed me. I ran and ran, following the blood trail until I found it. I saw the wolf lying next to a tree.Tears streamed down my face seeing it in that state. I wasn't afraid at that moment; I just got on my knees next to it. The wolf looked at me, and its ears pinned back."I'm so sorry."It had several bullet wounds and was bleeding a lot. I couldn't help but sob."I'm so sorry."The wolf whined, and I

    I half-smiled and got out of the car. Liam drove off into the forest. What is he doing? I went inside, thinking Mom or Dad would be waiting for me, super worried, but I guess Dad is keeping his word to let me fly. I went upstairs and locked the door once I was in my room.I was surprised to see Liam there."You're fast.""I wanted to spend the night with you, Cristine. I'm not going to leave you alone again."Liam hugged me, and I was grateful for it. We both got into bed and cuddled. I felt loved, cherished, and protected. Little by little, the fear started to fade."I'll take care of your dreams."His head massages made me sleepier and sleepier until I finally fell asleep.•The next morning, I opened my eyes slowly. I heard the birds chirping by the window. I looked for Liam beside me, but he was already gone. I knew it, I knew he would leave at dawn. I got up, my head aching a little. There was a note next to me that read:Good morning, sweetheart. I'll pick you up to take you to

    "Sounds like a good idea." I took off his shirt, kissed his neck, and licked his ear. I looked at the half-moon in the sky, illuminating us a bit. I thought about how Liam would pay for deceiving me and how the moon would help me with my revenge. I sensually removed all my clothes in front of Liam, my naked body exposed to him. There was grass on the ground, so we lay down there. This reminded me of the night we became a couple."You're so beautiful."More than Miranda? I wanted to ask but kept quiet."So gorgeous... everything about you drives me crazy." Liam sucked on my breasts, and I felt so much pleasure that I moaned. I sat on top of him, starting to move back and forth. "Oh yes... Cristine, you're incredible." He scratched my back."Do you like it?""A lot."I smiled bitterly as I made love to him.When we were about to climax, I felt Liam getting extremely hot, just like what happened with Theo the other time. I was a bit puzzled by the similarity but decided to ignore it. May

    I went downstairs."Are you going out?" Dad was at the table reading some papers."Yes, we're going to a party with Maia and the guys. Can I go?" I approached him. I didn't like being distant with my father; I've always been a daddy's girl, which is why Greg and his friends teased me. And now, with Liam's presence, he's not happy, so he's been very distant from me."Alright, have fun, honey.""I don't like being mad at you." I sat on his lap. "You're my daddy, and I love you.""I love you too, honey, it's just that... there are things you still don't understand. You're very young, and I just want to protect you. That's all."I smiled and kissed his cheek."Let me make my own decisions, let me make mistakes because that's the only way I'll gain experience and learn life's lessons. You can't keep me in a glass box forever, Dad.""That's what hurts the most: not being able to do that.""Dad...""I'll try not to be so distrustful and give you more freedom, but don't hesitate to come to me

    -What are you doing here?Theo's look was dark, he didn't seem to see me.-My mom brought Maia so I couldn't get away, don't worry we're leaving," I crossed my arms.-Christine, you shouldn't come to this house anymore.Her words hurt me but I also swallowed the feeling.-If that's what you want, it's okay, you won't see me again.Theo closed his eyes for a few seconds and then let his guard down.-It's not that I don't want you to come but that it hurts me to see you and know you're not mine.A lunge.-It hurts me to see you and know I can't touch you, kiss you, or make you mine.Another thrust.His words would make any woman fall in love.I bit my bottom lip and lowered my gaze to his lips. What the hell am I doing? Am I hurting because of the way Liam is cheating on me? Maybe Liam right now is kissing Miranda or making love to her, I don't want to think about that! It's torturous.-I already told you that you won't see me again now please jump.Theo moved closer, I could tell he wa

    "That's just the town entrance; there are still a few kilometers to go before we reach the houses.""Sorry, ladies, but this is as far as I can go.""We'll have to walk."I rolled my eyes, paid the taxi driver, and we got out. The man's behavior was strange; he didn't want to enter the town."What now?""We walk."Maia and I started walking. The afternoon was fading, and the sun was setting. Maia knew to respect my need for silence and reflection."I'll get over it. We were only together for a day."Maia laughed."It's funny, but you were together before Liam made it official.""Yes. I suppose it was just attraction," I swallowed hard."You're angry, but I know it hurt to see him with someone else.""Of course. I feel betrayed and hurt, but believe me, if I could get over Kaleb, I can get over anything.""I never thought Liam would lead a double life."I sighed."Neither did I. He seemed so sincere when he was with me, but I guess he's a perfect liar.""Are we not going to the party t

    "There are a lot of handsome guys."I laughed."I see that.""And to think Theo would be here.""Calm down, Maia. Theo still has time to come to the university.""I know, I hope he comes around. You know, I'm starting to think that if the girl is at the university and Theo didn't want to come... it might be because she's not here.""And you're just telling me this now.""We're already here."We climbed the stairs until we reached the administration office."Hello, good afternoon. I'm looking for my friend CB."The secretary looked at us strangely. She was just a very young girl."CB?""Yes, she's my friend's cousin. She came from out of town, and we want to surprise her. We call her that out of affection; those are her initials: CB. I don't know if you can find her by her last name.""Let me try. There's a long list of girls with the initials CB.""Layla! There are two boys arguing in the yard. Come quickly, please," a blonde girl approached the secretary."What? Girls, wait here." Th

    "Where did you go?" Maia was sipping her juice. I sat down next to her with my untouched lunch."I stayed in the bathroom.""How's your foot? When I looked for you, you were gone, so I came here alone.""It's fine, don't worry." I took a sip of my juice."Are we going to the university today?""Today? I don't think we'll have time.""Where are you planning to go?" Liam appeared behind me and sat down next to me."Umm... am I intruding?""Not at all, Maia.""We hardly talk, Maia, but now that Cristine and I are dating, I hope that changes."Maia smiled."You're dating? Cristine hadn't told me anything! Congratulations.""I hadn't had the time to tell you.""Do you mind if some friends join us?""Who?""Them.""Oh, the ones you had trouble with Kaleb the first time.""Yes.""No problem."Liam signaled to his friends to come to our table. They sat with us. The guys were serious like Liam and wore black jackets."This is Junior and his brother Jeremías.""Nice to meet you.""Hi, I'm Maia.
