Emma.

The grandfather clock in the hallway struck midnight, its deep chimes echoing through the house. I sat cross-legged on the floor of Violet's nursery, surrounded by maps and documents, while my daughter slept peacefully in her crib. The soft glow of her night light cast dancing shadows on the walls, reminding me of simpler times.

"You should get some rest," Derek said from the doorway, his voice barely above a whisper. Dark circles under his eyes betrayed his own exhaustion, but I knew he wouldn't sleep until I did.

"In a minute," I replied, studying the surveillance photos Tara had compiled. "Something about these shipments to the mill doesn't add up."

He crossed the room and sat beside me, his warmth a comfort in the cool night air. "Talk it through with me."

I spread the photos out, pointing to timestamps and vehicle descriptions. "See these trucks? They're registered to different companies, but look at the drivers." I handed him Tara's enhanced images. "Same three people, rot

    EmmaI jolted awake in the rocking chair, my neck stiff from sleeping at an odd angle. The first rays of dawn filtered through the nursery blinds, casting strips of pale light across Violet's empty crib. For a split second, panic seized my chest before I heard her delighted giggles coming from the kitchen, mixed with my mother's gentle cooing."Look who finally decided to join us," Derek said from the doorway, a steaming cup of coffee in his hand. His smile was tired but warm. "You were out cold for three hours.""You should've woken me," I grumbled, accepting the coffee gratefully. The rich aroma helped clear the fog from my mind. "Any updates?""Nothing urgent. Tara's still working on those blueprints, and—" He was cut off by the sound of something shattering in the kitchen, followed by Mary's exasperated sigh."Oh, for heaven's sake!" We found my mother standing amid the remains of what used to be her favorite coffee mug, while Violet sat in her high chair, thoroughly amused by th

    Emma.Dust and debris rained down around us as chaos erupted. Through the haze, I caught glimpses of dark figures dropping from above – Ben's private security team, armed with something that made the air crackle with energy. The "original family" members hadn't expected this, their perfect composure finally cracking."Now!" Tara shouted from somewhere behind me. The house's emergency sprinkler system activated, but instead of water, a fine purple mist filled the air. I recognized the mixture – Cassidy's special blend of herbs and mountain ash, weaponized into an aerosol form.The man in the business suit snarled, his human facade slipping to reveal something ancient and terrible beneath. "You dare—""Oh, we dare," my mother cut in, stepping forward with a confidence I'd never seen before. She pulled an antique locket from beneath her shirt – my grandmother's locket, the one she'd never let me touch. "Did you really think Richard was the only one preparing for this day?"The taller wom

    Emma.The safe house Ben provided was more of a compound than a house – a sprawling ranch-style property tucked away in dense forest, complete with underground bunkers and state-of-the-art security systems. We'd been here for three days, and I still hadn't explored all of it."More coffee?" Tara asked, finding me in the kitchen at dawn. She looked exhausted but determined, her laptop never far from reach. "I made a fresh pot.""Please." I watched as she poured, noting how her hands trembled slightly. "Have you slept at all?"She shrugged, sliding into the seat across from me. "Sleep is overrated. Besides, you should see what I found in those files we recovered. The original families? They've been manipulating world events for centuries. Wars, peace treaties, technological advances – all carefully orchestrated to maintain their control.""Mom's still going through grandmother's journals," I said, wrapping my hands around the warm mug.

    Emma.The training room echoed with the rhythmic thuds of combat. I stood on the observation deck, arms resting on the railing as I watched my mother take down three seasoned fighters without breaking a sweat. Her movements were a symphony of precision and efficiency, blending the ferocity of a predator with the elegance of a dancer. This wasn’t the same woman who once scolded me for tracking mud onto the carpet or fussed over chipped nail polish.Cassidy’s voice broke through my thoughts as she joined me at the window. "Still think she was just a socialite?" she asked, a faint smile tugging at her lips. Her recovery from recent events was slow but noticeable—some of her old spark was returning."I don’t know what to think anymore," I admitted, shifting Violet on my hip. My daughter’s wide eyes were glued to the scene below, her tiny hands clutching the edge of my shirt. "It’s like I’m meeting her for the first time. Like the person she used to be was just… a mask."Cassidy hummed tho

    Emma.The air in the conference room felt charged, every revelation tightening the invisible threads of tension between us. Marcus’s words echoed in my mind, unraveling the very foundation of everything we believed about supernatural history."So the segregation of species," Tara repeated, her voice a careful whisper in the heavy silence, "the whole hierarchy of werewolves, vampires, witches… it’s all artificial?""Engineered," Marcus confirmed. He reached into his worn leather bag and pulled out an ancient journal. The weathered cover bore faint traces of intricate designs, symbols that seemed to hum faintly with power."The original families didn’t just create supernatural beings," Marcus continued, carefully placing the journal on the table. "They deliberately kept them separate. They manipulated evolution itself to ensure that no one would rise beyond their control."Mom leaned forward, her fingers brushing the journal’s cover reverently. Her eyes shone with a mixture of pain and

    Emma.I slammed the stack of pictures down on the editor's desk, my voice trembling as I spoke. "Another attack, Mr. Karl. Another one just last night. You can't keep ignoring this." Karl barely glanced up from his computer, adjusting his glasses in that slow, deliberate way that always made me irritated. “Emma,” he sighed, leaning back in his chair like he had all the time in the world, “what people want to read isn’t wild animals running through the woods. They want celebrity gossip, local scandals, you know, stuff that sells.” I crossed my arms, trying to keep my voice steady. “People are dying, Mr. Karl. I’m talking about lives here, not some silly drama about who cheated on who." "You'll watch your tone, miss Emma.” his voice rose a notch and I stepped back. Mr. Karl sighed, tapped his pen against his notepad, his eyes locking onto mine with what looked like sympathy. “Emma, you’re good at what you do, but I’m running a business. People eat up the gossip like candy, but they

    Emma.I'd had enough of the wild animal attacks. Benny was injured and I knew I had to do something. My backpack was stuffed and detective Shaw would be meeting me later. “Hello, Mr. Karl," I said, “I won't be coming in today. I've got a family dinner and all." Mr Karl hummed, “Are you upset about yesterday? Look, Emma. One day you'll write the big headlines but now, you've just gotta stick to the articles and__” "Yeah, I get the drill. I'm just busy, I'll drop by tomorrow with the articles, bye." I said all in one breath and hung up. As I stepped outside, I could feel Mom’s eyes on me from the window. She hadn’t said much after I arrived from the hospital, but she was clearly worried. As I reached the car, Alec was already there, leaning, his fingers absentmindedly playing with the onyx ring he always wore. That ring was the only thing we had left from our father. He passed months after my birth. Alec didn’t talk much about him, but that ring meant something to him. “Wo

    Emma.The next morning, I sat at the breakfast table, staring blankly at my omelet and half eaten toast. The kitchen was warm, the scent of freshly brewed coffee mingling with the sound of clinking plates, but my thoughts were miles away, back to the woods, to that strange man. And now, the gray wolf."Emma, are you listening?" My mother’s voice snapped me back to the present.I blinked, shaking my head. "Sorry, Mom. What did you say?""You’ve barely touched your food, and you’ve been looking out the window all morning,” she set a plate of eggs in front of me. “Emma said she saw a wolf last night," Alec cut in, curling his salad. My family didn't eat much, in fact, I could say they didn't like food. But mum always cooked for me, she claimed. I swallowed hard and interrupted him, "I know what I saw, Alec.""We’ve been over this, Emma. You were in shock. That man you encountered in the woods, he was dangerous, but there’s no wolf. It’s just your mind playing tricks on you."I leaned f

    Emma.The morning light filtered through the windows, casting long shadows across the living room where evidence of last night's gathering still lingered. Empty cups, Tara's half-eaten veggie platter, and Mary's brownie tray – all remnants of a night that had changed everything.I stood by the window, watching as Derek patrolled the perimeter with Ben, their movements synchronized and purposeful. The sight of them working together filled me with a strange sense of peace. My old life and new coming together in ways I never expected."They make quite a team," Tara remarked, joining me at the window. Her presence had become a comfort I didn't know I needed."They do," I agreed, my thoughts drifting to the battle we'd barely survived. "Everything's different now."The sound of Violet's soft cries drew my attention. My mother, Mary, was already moving towards the nursery, her maternal instincts as sharp as ever. It amazed me how quickly she'd adapted to our supernatural reality, accepting

    Emma.Emma placed a cup of tea between her palms and settled in the worn armchair located at one end of the living room. The steam curved upwards in delicate patterns, blended with the scent of chamomile, offering momentary relief from mounting tension. The storm had just arrived and Lily was slumbering, unaware of what was happening on their doorstep. Emma took a deep breath and prepared herself for the upcoming battle.Time was passing by her as she looked at the clock. A solid plan was necessary for Tara to deal with Selene, as she had a deadline coming up. Using her notepad, Emma wrote down ideas in bullet points, each one reflecting her commitment to safeguarding her daughter. She was taken aback by the sudden sound of the doorbell. Emma's heart raced. The notepad was wiped clean and put away before she went into the door. Tara stood at a distance with both fear and determination. Tara stepped inside before Emma could answer, "Ah, are you okay?". "It's not that way," Emma decl
