At the Silversmith hunters' HQ, Dr. Miranda, the Silversmith family doctor, passed the curved needle under Arnold's thick skin with precision.

The grizzled hunter neither flinched nor winced in pain, as he was used to getting injured in the battlefield and was known for his rugged endurance.

“Aren't you done yet?” Arnold asked, his stern voice highlighting a hint of impatience. He fixed his eyes on the relaxed doctor's hands, a mixture of annoyance and curiosity etched on his face.

“Almost,” Dr. Miranda replied coolly, her expression serene, despite the grotesque wound on her patient’s chest. Without a hint of haste or urgency, her hands moved with practiced efficiency, deliberately gliding the needle into Arnold's chest, with a calm and focused intensity.

Dr. Miranda knew the true family's profession, so she had long grown accustomed to the brutal injuries that came with the Hunters' profession. Ever since she was eighteen, she had learnt to tend to their wounds and had been stitch

Beyond being an Alpha, Nicholas's wealth wasn't only generational, but was accumulated through his hard work and strategic business mindset.The wound Sheila last saw that deeply gashed his face had completely disappeared, sh

    With furrowed brows, Sheila exclaimed, “I've never heard him spew such nonsense!” Her eyes fixated at the ceiling up above the bed on which she lay, her mind still reeling from the conversation with Nicholas. She complained nonstop, as she lay absentminded from the “handsome stud” going down on her.“I mean, how sure is he that she could take out the whole family? Only by glancing at her, you could tell that she is barely capable of handling a rat!” Sheila hurled.“Why not just kill her and make sure she stays dead? That what he's always wanted to do for fuc#’s sake!” Indignation evident in her tone.“Since when has Nicholas gone soft!? How hard was it to kill a measly, sickly, teenage girl!?” So was disappointment.As she continued her venting, the only response she got was the moaning and flicking sounds that came from the man’s mouth as he held her laps apart.“If the plan had nothing to do with tampering with my position in the pack, I'd have loved it. But it does! Making her his

    As soon as Sheila finished with her boy toy and had him dismissed, she began preparing to set her plan in motion, behind Nicholas's back.She walked into her closet and approached her gigantic vanity mirror, her mind pondering on how to create the perfect disguise as a timid and believable high school teenager.Opening up her makeup drawer, Sheila skillfully applied a tad bit of smokey-eye eyeshadow on her eyelids, and then pink gloss on her lips. Then she proceeded with her long black hair and styled it in a disheveled ponytail. She then put on a pair of tight blue jeans, white collared shirt and then threw on a grey sweatshirt. An outfit completely different from her day to day leather and sexually provocative attire.As Sheila gazed at her reflection in the mirror, fully satisfied with her transformation, her lips widened in a malevolent smile. The new look only made her look younger, prettier, innocent and vulnerable, a stark contrast to the cunning and manipulative person she tr

    Madison left the school premises with Sheila, heading to the Police station to provide Sheila's testimony and evidence, as instructed by Madison's father.They both confidently strode into the busy station, their stride confident and faces set in determination.Stepping into the empty elevator which would whisk them up to her father's office floor, Madison glanced at Sheila, her eyes clouded with doubt.“Tell me the truth,” Madison started, her gaze fixed ahead as she talked to Sheila. “What truth?” Sheila replied, her tone neutral, but her eyes wary of what else she wanted to know. The question had caught her off guard. She thought she'd convinced her enough of her intentions.“The truth about who you are.” Madison stated without looking at her, her face and tone stern. “The truth about why you're doing this.”“I don't get what you mean.” Sheila replied defensively, her tone low, “I told you, I want justice for Jordan.”“You must think I'm stupid, don't you? I know you were never f

    “What do you mean, alive?” Sheila finally broke from her frozen state. “That piece of shit survived!?” She exclaimed in her thoughts, while trying to mask her vexation with furrowed brows that indicated perplexity.“You don't seem too happy about it,” Agent Salts inputs as he interrupted her thoughts, leaning back against the wall at the edge of the room.“What?! Dad, this is great news! I'm just so surprised because I saw him…” Madison trailed off in mixed excitement as her father interrupted.“Not you. Your friend.” Agent Salts narrowed his gaze at Sheila, who was seated with her fingers intertwined on the table. All the eyes in the room, including Madison's, fell on her as she sat in awkward silence.Sheila uttered deliberately, “I'm happy Jordan survived. I'm just a little bit shaken up and surprised, that's all,” her tone unsteady.But she quickly recomposed herself, “My God, Maddy, Jordan is Alive!” She exclaimed as she turned to Madison, her eyes gleaming with forced excitemen

    As the video resumed, all the eyes in the room, excluding Sheila’s, focused on the phone screen with intent curiosity.“What are we looking at?” Agent Salts asked as he watched the video. “I uh… made a video recording of the whole thing, just in case she went ahead with it.” Replied Sheila, her tone unsteady as she resumed picking her finger well manicured nails.Detective Williams raised an eyebrow and glanced at her, then resumed watching the twenty eight seconds video. Sheila wasn't seen in the video but Kimberly was there. In the video, Kimberly was dressed in a black t-shirt and baggy jeans. She was with Jordan and they were both in the classroom together. Kimberly seemed to be confronting him about his actions and his claims to love her. They seemed to be having a serious argument, raising voices and pointing fingers, their expressions screaming anger and rage. Jordan was seen standing close to an opened window.When suddenly, in one swift and violent push, Kimberly hurled Jo

    On hearing the last unexpected sentence from Officer Drake, Sheila's eyes widened in surprise. “Damn!” She blurted out loud.Madison's gaze snapped towards her. “What!?” She asked softly, her voice trembling with unease as she was still on edge from the tense interrogation and the stern look she received from the officers in the room, including her father's.“Officer Drake is Jordan’s father.” Sheila stated, as her lips curled in a sly smile, her eyes glinting with intrigue.“You knew, right? No wonder he was being so serious and grumpy.”Madison's brows furrowed together in awe. “What? No!” She frantically shook her head.Sheila jerked her head towards her. “What do you mean no? Wasn't he your boyfriend?” she pressed, giving her an intent glare.“Yes!” Madison exclaimed softly. “But I never met his father, he was very distant and Jordan didn't have a good relationship with him.” She revealed, as she nervously narrowed her gaze back to the interrogation room. “But, how did you figure

    Meanwhile, across the town of Lunadelephia, at the Ashfield Motel, Kimberly was left utterly stunned in the cramped motel space.She deliberately turned her back to face the now shut door, and a strong wave of DéjàVu crept into her bones. Last time she was locked in a confined space was by Jordan, a boy she trusted, who was now dead — she thought. Recalling the horrific event that transpired afterwards made her shudder. Now, a receptionist, whatever her motive was, has locked her in the motel room she paid for. Her mind spiraled in a flurry of questions, but none she could figure out the answer if she didn't ask.Fear? She felt none of it, but she was indeed perplexed. All she desperately needed was a meal, a warm bath and a bed to lay her tiresome body to sleep. But it seems the whole world was against her. First, Jordan, her so-called crush, delivered her into the claws of a beast. Second, her family turned against her, and her mother attempted to kill her. And now, whomever she c

    As the dust settled, Nicholas and Levi found themselves shocked and disoriented, their eyes fixed on Kimberly with a mix of confusion and awe. With a painful groan, Levi sank his own hand into his shifted heart which was almost about to be ripped out of his chest, and he pushed it back to its original position with undeterred precision. That was the closest he'd ever been to death in his entire life, but he made sure to conceal the flicker of emotion that would have revealed it. For some unknown reasons, Kimberly had chosen to stop Nicholas, she had chosen to save Levi, and Levi was thankful for that. This reason however was subtly understood by Levi, he knew she had saved him not because she believed what he had said, it was because he knew she must be desperate for answers. And he believed that deep down in her heart, she knew that something was missing and she wanted to know what. Apparently, saving Levi's life was a one step to finding out answers—or so Levi thought.

    Back then at the scene of the carnage that had unfolded before the Lightwood’s mansion. The disastrous and blood drenched battleground was a grim reminder of the atrocities committed by Levi; decimating six of Nicholas's own in cold blood. Levi, the Ultima, and ever-powerful primordial, and Nicholas, the ruthless and formidable Alpha, stood face to face, six feet from each other, their jaws clenched in unyielding determination. Their faces and clothes were battered with blood, both of their own and that of the fallen werewolves —another grim reminder of the carnage that had taken place. Their eyes blazed with a burning intensity, each one fueled by a fierce desire to take the other out, to emerge victorious in this battle of titans.And then there was Kimberly, the unseemingly powerful hybrid, whose true nature remained a mystery to all who surrounded her. She stood frozen on the mansion stairs, her eyes wide with shock and disbelief, her gaze fixed on the havoc unfolding before he

    As Sheila stepped out of Hannah's front door, the warm sunlight and gentle breeze enveloped her, a stark contrast to the dark, intense emotions that was swirling within her. She took a deep breath, feeling the cool, crisp air fill her lungs, and began to make her way down the winding path that led through Hannah's beautifully manicured gardens.The vibrant flowers and lush greenery of Hannah's garden seemed to mock her, their beauty and tranquility a jarring contrast to the turmoil that raged in her heart and mind. Her eyes narrowed as she gazed out at the serene landscape, her mind still reeling from the revelations Hannah had shared.Despite her weakness and fatigue, Sheila's resolve had been reignited, her determination to destroy Kimberly burning brighter than ever. As she walked, she carefully formulated her next move, her mind racing with strategies and plans.The soft rustle of leaves and chirping of birds filled the air, a soothing melody that seemed to fuel Sheila's growing a

    While Sheila was left orchestrating her next move in her mind, Hannah retreated to her sanctum, a space filled in ancient mystique. The witch room was a labyrinthine chamber, its walls lined with tall shelves that stood relentlessly under the weight of dusty tomes and mysterious artifacts. The air was heavy with the scent of old parchment and the flickering flames of white and red candles, which cast eerie shadows on the walls. In the center of the room, a sturdy wooden table stood, and on it was a simple, yet elegant, silver bowl. The bowl, crafted from a polished silver metal, seemed to glow with an ethereal light, as if it were imbued with a power of its own. Hannah's eyes gleamed with a deep understanding as she approached the table, her hands weaving intricate patterns in the air. The silence was palpable, punctuated only by the soft crackling of the candles.Her expression turned grave, her sharp eyes clouded with a mix of shock and concern. She paused, collecting her thoughts

    Sheila sat up, adjusting her clothes and regaining her composure. "What is it that you want from me, Hannah?" She asked, her tone measured. Hannah's response was a laughter laced with mockery. "You?" she repeated, her eyes glinting with amusement. "What could you possibly have to offer that would be of any interest to me?”Sheila's brows furrowed, her frustration simmering just below the surface, but she refused to give Hannah the satisfaction of seeing her weakness. "What's your problem with me, then?" she demanded, her voice firm. "Why have you been making my life so goddamn difficult?"Hannah's expression turned stern, her finger wagging in reprimand. "No, no, no. You're getting ahead of yourself. Let's establish the rules here, because we're only doing this my way. I ask the questions, and you answer. Understood?" Sheila's eyes rolled heavenward, her disdain for Hannah's condescending tone clear.“Now, what brought you to Anavrin?” Hannah began."I thought you said you know every

    Shortly after, the duo reappeared in another spacious sitting as if they had traveled through dimensions and arrived in another world. The strong aura and energy the magic took to transport them was so strong that it brought Sheila back to her consciousness. She stirred, her eyes fluttering open to an unfamiliar ceiling. She was disoriented, but as her gaze swept the room, memories began to resurface. She saw the elderly woman in her long, luscious grey hair, standing over her. She was chanting in a low, deep, menacing tone, words Sheila couldn't make out the language it was in.Sheila's gaze flickered around to scrutinize her surroundings. The room she found herself in was an unusually cozy, island-inspired space with vibrant colors and lush greenery. Woven bamboo furniture and colorful textiles added to the Jamaican vibe. The air was thick with the scent of blooming flowers and the faint hint of jerk seasoning. Rows of red and white candles were burning on ornate candle stands tha

    She? Who is She? Sheila's mind reeled. But before she could question the boy's words, she heard the door opposite Timmy's creak open. She felt a sudden unsettling presence approaching her from behind, making the hairs on the back of her neck stand on an end. Although her senses were not as heightened as they normally were, her many years of honed instinct screamed warning that put her on immediate alert. Through the corner of her eyes, she caught a glimpse of an eerie shadow looming on the wall and drawing closer to her. She immediately turned her head to confront the presence, and her eyes locked onto the woman who had brought her to this place. But the warm, friendly face Sheila remembered had twisted into a malevolent scowl that showed utter hostility and nothing less. The woman's voice was low and menacing, uttering words that sounded like an ancient incantation. Her right hand was clenched into a fist, with her palm facing utward, as if she was conjuring some dark energy.Sheila

    Sheila trailed behind the woman, navigating a desolate alleyway scarred by vibrant graffiti. The ground was littered with dirt and debris, while abandoned cars lined the streets, their rusting hulks a testament to the area's neglect. As they walked, the only sounds being the soft crunch of gravel beneath their shoes, Sheila's mind began to wander. What motivated this woman to help her? She focused her super-sensitive hearing on the woman's heartbeat, but it remained calm and steady, reassuring her that the woman's intentions seemed genuine.With renewed confidence, Sheila followed the woman as they climbed into a broad, dimly lit tunnel. The air inside was stale and musty, filled with the scent of decay. As they emerged from the tunnel, Sheila's eyes adjusted to the bright sunlight, revealing a sprawling landscape of old, worn buildings. They stood in a small, rundown ghetto area, the walls of the buildings covered in a kaleidoscope of graffiti, while broken windows gaped like empty e

    Sheila trudged down the rain-soaked streets of Anavrin, her eyes fixed on the Google map that was displayed on her phone screen. Her face was twisted in a scowl as she stormed her boots on the soil tracks. The acrid smell of mud and dirt, the exhaust fumes of car engines, and the musky scents of nearby alleys clung onto her nostrils like a challenge.She had been searching for what felt like hours now, and her patience was starting to wear thin. Using the I web and her miniature tech skills, and also the eyewitness’s social media accounts she had inspected, the boy who had been saved by the mysterious woman was named Timmy, and he lived somewhere in this neighborhood. As she turned a corner, her eyes scanned the street, taking in the rows of mediocre houses and apartment buildings. She briefly stopped in front of a small bakery, the sweet aroma of freshly baked bread wafting out into the street. Her stomach growled, reminding her that she had skipped breakfast.Consulting her phone a
