Lisa's POV

I dodged, shifting to the side as Dominick's howl ripped through the air, the rogue's claws inches from my face.

"Remain back, Lisa!" he said, snarling at the outlaw.

"I can do this!" I retorted, avoiding another blow as I stabbed the rogue in the ribs.

As it staggered back, the creature's crimson pupils narrowed as it howled in agony. Without wasting any time, Dominick snarled ferociously and tore into it.

As the rogue went limp at his feet, he looked at me and said, "Are you okay?"

I wiped the blood from my arm and panted, "All right." "But they're not going to stop."

As additional rogues drew in, the surrounding woodland seemed to be alive with activity, with shadows flitting between the trees.

Marcus glared as he stood next to Chelsea, his sword flashing, "This was a trap." "They were trying to get us to come out."

Chelsea growled, her wolf snarling as she transformed, "Then let's show them what happens when they mess with us."

    Lisa's POVI got shivers from the ominous cry that lingered in the air. I quickly glanced at Dominick, who was standing tensely with his wolf hanging near the surface. "What was that?" Despite the uneasiness that was writhing in my chest, I asked in a firm voice. Marcus sadly replied, "That's a call to arms," and entered the room. A cautionary tale. or a danger. Dominick's jaw tightened and his hands clenched. "This is Alexander." With my heart racing, I moved closer to him. "Are you certain?" Dominick nodded, his face gloomy. "He's not finished. He howled for all the rogues and enemies he could find, not just for us. Chelsea rushed in, looking pale. The southern border guards reported movement, Alpha. It seems to be a tiny army meeting.

    Lisa's POV"Lisa!" My attention was fixed on Alexander as he sprang at me, his claws shining in the dawn light, while Dominick's howl ripped through the confusion. "Remain back!" I yelled, avoiding his blow at the last moment. Alexander circled me with a sly smile, his motions precise and swift. He hissed, "You're feisty for an omega." "You're out of your depth, though." Refusing to show him any fear, I hold my blade tighter. "And for an egotistical maniac, you're predictable." He gave a gloomy chuckle. "Although you have a sharp tongue, it won't help you." He lunged again before I could react. I was ready this time. My sword sliced through his shirt, drawing blood as I sidestepped and struck at his side. He hold his wound, his growl thunderous.

    The tense atmosphere in the room was oppressive. Each frenzied movement caused Dominick's claws to lengthen and retract as he paced back and forth. With the letter firmly clasped in my fist, I sat on the edge of the table. I eventually broke the stillness by saying, "This is exactly what he wants." "He wants to cause you to lose control." Dominick halted in the middle of his stride, his gaze meeting mine. And what do you think we ought to do? Wait for him to hit again while you relax? "No," I stood up and answered. "We confront him with the fight." Chelsea grimaced as she stood beside the doorway. That's dangerous. He will be anticipating that. "Exactly," I said, my thoughts racing. "At the moment, he is overconfident. He believes we'll continue to be defensive. We can surprise him if we strike first. Marcus crossed his arms and took a step forward. It's a daring move. However, where do we even begin? We have no idea where he is hiding. Dominick said, his voice low and menacing

I moaned as I forced myself to stand up in the almost complete darkness. "Lisa?" Dominick's voice broke through the chaos with its urgency and sharpness. I coughed and felt about for my dagger, saying, "I'm here." Our sole light came from the dim glow above, which created lengthy shadows on the chilly stone walls. We were trapped within once the trapdoor slammed shut. "What is this location?" My voice reverberated in the cramped room as I asked. "Anabella's perverted notion of enjoyment," Dominick snarled as he stood next to me. He looked about us, his eyes gleaming dimly in the dark light. As she stepped out of the shadows, Chelsea complained, "I'm fine, by the way," and dusted herself off. "Are all of us present?" From someplace to my left, Marcus's voice could be heard. "Yes," I said as I at last grasped my dagger's hilt. "However, we must determin

    Lisa' POVThe earth underneath us trembled with the thunderous roar of the mysterious apparition. The air seemed to become thicker as I hold my blade tighter, excitement pumping through me. "What's that thing?" I looked at Dominick and asked. With his wolf charging forward, he snarled, his claws outstretched, "Something born from Anabella's black magic." It's a puppet. She is in charge of it. As the markings on the walls pulsed in time with the creature's motions, Anabella grinned and held out her arms. "You've gone so far, and now you're failing. How lyrical. Chelsea said, changing into her wolf form next to me, "Don't listen to her." Marcus's jaw was tense as he pulled his sword. "Like the last one, we'll take it down." "This one isn't like the others," Dominick said. Larger, more powerful—and connected to her. It collapses when we remove her. Anabella chuckled. "Are you sure I'll make it that simple?"

    Lisa's POVAfter Anabella's escape, there was an overwhelming hush. As the rest of us gathered in the now-darkened room, Dominick walked frantically, his claws flexing and retracting. With a low snarl, he whispered, "She planned this." "She wanted us to be here, preoccupied." Marcus wiped blood off his blade and said, "She's running out of tricks." Her castle is uncovered, and her beast has vanished. It won't be long until we locate her. "How much does it cost?" Chelsea's tone was stern as she inquired. She's constantly ahead of the game. What if this goes beyond us? Dominick's eyes narrowed and he halted. "What are you saying?" Chelsea went on, "What if this is more than simply retaliation? We have no idea what it is that Anabella is constructing. I stepped forward and said, "She's consolidating power." "And she will continue to hit us where it hurts if we don't figure out her endgame." Dominick turned and looked at me intently. After that, we cease anticipating her next actio

My chest ached with panic, but I pushed it down, preparing for the impending blow. My body ached as I struck the ground, but I was still alive. Around me, the cavern was illuminated by the faint glimmer of odd, unsettling symbols. "Lisa!" I could sense the despair in Dominick's voice, despite its faintness. "I'm all right!"

With a growl, Dominick firmly grasped my hand and dragged me forward. "I'm making an effort!" Leaping over a sharp rock that had fallen in our path, I snapped. Marcus trailed after, clearing falling stones with his sword, while Chelsea was in front, her wolf form slicing through the rubble. "We will fail to make it!" Marcus shouted, but his voice could hardly be heard above the commotion. "Yes, we will!" Dominick's growled, his eyes blazing. "Keep going!" The exit loomed ahead, a dim, almost inconceivably far gleam of light. "Don't stop!" Chelsea's voice was keen with desperation as she howled.

With each faint, labored breath, his chest scarcely raised. He was on the verge of death since the energy that had rushed through him had vanished due to his sacrifice. His eyes were still closed, and the once-bright green had turned into a drab, empty void.As Lisa held him tight and let her tears fall over his skin, her pulse raced in her chest. Even though she could still feel his little pulse, she felt as if she would choke with the weight of their predicament. She had felt his vitality ebbing away, along with the optimism she had held onto. The sight of him like this was almost unbearable to her. It felt obvious now, yet she had always dreaded losing him."No... "Please, no," Lisa said, her voice trembling. She pressed her forehead to his and ran her fingers through his hair.

Her eyes, once full of life, were now glassy and vacant, and her chest no longer rose and fell with breath.As Dominick looked down at her, his heart broke. His mind was refusing to comprehend the truth of what was occurring, and his pulse was thundering in his ears. She had been let down by him. She had been let down by the pack. He was now unable to envision a way out of this dire situation."Lisa… please," he said in a broken murmur. The coolness of her skin just made the agony more excruciating when his palm lightly touched her face. "You are necessary to me. You are necessary to us. I can't let you go.

His heart tightened with anger and terror as her dead eyes, glowed with the stone's sinister enchantment, stabbed him like daggers.Dominick's heart raced as he thought, "I can't let this happen." Even the sheer power of his Lycan form, which rushed through his body, was insufficient. Every move they took was thwarted by Anabella's evil power, and the enchantment all around them was too strong.Anabella sang in a language Dominick couldn't understand while standing in the middle of the ceremonial circle with her hands up high. Her gaze remained focused on Lisa's still figure, her expression a mask of warped contentment.With anger in her voice, Anabella said, "You're too late, D

    The trees surrounded the pitch-black clearing like quiet sentinels, while the center of the forest was enveloped in shadows. The ritual was happening in the middle. With the energy of the Obsidian Stone throbbing with black power, Anabella stood at the center of the menacing circle, and Dominick's gaze was fixed on her. The stone was broken, but it still had a lot of force. The air around them vibrated as the crackling energy emanated from it.Desperate to escape, Dominick's Lycan form surged under his skin as his hands tightened. His heart ached from dread of what Anabella was about to do, not from the stress of the combat going on around him. He could feel the tiniest throb of life inside Lisa as she lay asleep in the middle of the ceremonial circle, her body strangely quiet."You believe that you can stop me?" As her gaze met his, Anabella's icy and scornful voice broke the uncomfortable quiet. "You haven't succeeded, Dominick. Your priceless Lisa and your priceless pack are alread

    As Dominick and Lisa walked back from the clearing, the wet, chilly air of the pack's territory seemed heavy. Dominick was reminded of the curse that had imprisoned him in his human form by the silent, gnawing ache that accompanied every stride. The weight of the situation was almost oppressive, and his body was weak and still reeling from Anabella's curse.Lisa's presence beside him was both consoling and agonizing.
