SIERRA

It felt like I couldn’t breathe. Ariel was standing right there, smirking like she owned the place, and honestly, in her mind, she probably did. She carried herself like a queen surveying her kingdom, and her energy was suffocating, pressing down on the room like a storm about to unleash destruction. It felt heavy, thick with danger, and I knew, deep down, that she could do anything she wanted, and no one here could stop her.

“What do you want, Ariel?” I asked, forcing the words out even though my voice shook. I hated how small I sounded, but I couldn’t help it. She was terrifying. I tried to steady myself, but my hands were trembling, and my heart was pounding so hard I was sure everyone in the room could hear it. “Haven’t you done enough? Or are you not done torturing me yet?”

Ariel tilted her head slightly, like she was thinking about it, and her eyes gleamed with amusement. That smirk on her face made my blood boil, but it also scared me. She looked like she was having fun,

    SIERRAI burst out laughing. I couldn’t help it. Ariel had finally lost it. Completely.“You’re delusional,” I said, wiping a tear from the corner of my eye as the last bit of laughter slipped out. “Dane? Stay with you? That’s the best joke I’ve heard all day. You really think I’d let that happen?”Ariel tilted her head, smiling slow and smug like she knew some grand secret I didn’t. Like she was already winning some twisted game she’d invented. It made my blood boil.“Think about it,” she said sweetly, her voice practically dripping with fake innocence. Then, without giving me a chance to snap back, she vanished into thin air, leaving nothing behind except the suffocating weight of her words.I let out a shaky breath, trying to calm the anger buzzing under my skin, but it wasn’t working. My fists were still clenched, and my heart was still racing. I was about to say something, anything, to break the heavy silence she’d left behind when Dane’s voice cut through the tension.“It’d be b

    ARIELThe cool night air wrapped around me as I stepped back inside, and for the first time in days, I felt at ease. A smile tugged at my lips, slow and lazy, as I let the quiet satisfaction sink in. Everything felt… right. After all the chaos, after dealing with those annoying whispers of rebellion and the endless sniveling of the others, I could finally breathe.This was my place now. My power. And everything, every vampire, every shadow in this place belonged to me.As I strolled through the dimly lit halls, I took in the sight of the vampires standing in line, their heads bowed respectfully as I passed. Obedient little soldiers. Not one of them dared look me in the eye, and that was exactly how I liked it.I hummed softly to myself, feeling unusually light. Maybe I’d throw a party later. Something extravagant. Blood, music, dancing. A night of celebration for me. I’d earned it, after all. It wasn’t easy keeping these creatures in line, but I’d done it. I’d fought my way to the top

    SIERRAI stormed through the woods, my fists clenched so tight my nails were digging into my palms. I didn’t care. The pain was nothing compared to the rage boiling inside me. How dare they? How dare they even consider giving in to Ariel’s demands? After everything we’ve been through, after everything I’ve fought for, they wanted to just… hand me over like I was some kind of bargaining chip. Like I didn’t have a say in my own life.“No, no, no,” I muttered to myself, kicking a rock out of my way. “This isn’t happening. I’m not doing this. I’m not some damsel who needs saving.”But no matter how much I tried to push the anger away, it clung to me, thick and heavy, making my chest ache. I couldn’t breathe. My vision blurred with hot, angry tears, and before I knew it, I was pulling out my phone and dialing my mom.She picked up on the second ring.“Sierra, honey, what’s wrong?”I didn’t even get a word out before the tears came. Big, ugly sobs that made it hard to speak. “Mom… I… I can’

    ARIELThe room felt cooler after Elise left, and I stood there for a moment, basking in the afterglow of her compliments. It had been a long time since someone admired me so openly. Most of these vampires only followed me out of fear. But Elise? She looked at me like I was a queen. That felt… good.I shook off the feeling, flipping my hair over my shoulder. Enough of that. I wasn’t here to make friends or play nice. I was here to rule. And if what Elise said was true, it was time to remind Astrid exactly who was in charge.With that thought in mind, I made my way through the winding hallways until I reached the west wing. It didn’t take long to find her. Astrid was sprawled on a plush velvet sofa like she owned the place, one leg casually draped over the armrest. Her long silver hair shimmered in the dim light, and her red-painted lips were curled into that same smug smile she always wore. The one that made my blood simmer.She looked up lazily as I stepped inside, her ice-blue eyes n

    ASTRIDAriel stood there, grinning like she owned the entire world. I hated that smile. I hated everything about her. But I wasn’t going to back down, not now. Not ever.“You think you scare me?” I said, tilting my chin up, staring her down. “What are you going to do, Ariel? Hurt me? Kill me? You already did worse to Celia.”At the mention of Celia’s name, something dark flickered in her eyes, and I knew I’d hit a nerve. But before I could savor that small victory, a sharp, searing pain exploded inside me.I gasped, doubling over as the heat spread through my veins. It felt like my blood was boiling, like fire was eating me alive from the inside.“What…” I choked out, clutching my chest.Ariel laughed, a cold, cruel sound that echoed around the room. “Even though you’re cold-blooded, Astrid, I can still make you burn.”I howled in pain, falling to my knees as the burning intensified. My vision blurred, and all I could hear was Ariel’s laughter, loud and merciless.“Stop!” I screamed,

    SIERRAThe wind hit me like a punch to the chest, stealing the breath from my lungs. One second I was standing firm, ready to fight, and the next, I was spinning through the air like a leaf in a storm. My hair whipped around my face, stinging my skin, and I couldn’t even scream before everything went dark.It felt like I was falling through nothingness, tumbling helplessly with no sense of direction. My heart pounded wildly, and my mind screamed for me to get a grip, but there was nothing to grab, nothing to hold on to. Just air, and chaos, and the roaring sound of the wind in my ears.Then, bam!I hit the ground hard. Flat on my back. The impact knocked the air out of me in a single, painful gasp, and for a second, all I could do was lie there, staring up at the sky, my chest heaving as I tried to breathe. My head spun like I’d been on a roller coaster that flipped too many times.“What the hell…” I gasped, trying to sit up, though my body felt like it weighed a ton.Everything hurt.

    SIERRAThe fire roared behind us, turning the sky into a canvas of dark smoke and angry orange flames. I couldn’t stop staring at it, even as we walked away.“That’s it, then,” one of the werewolves said beside me, his voice grim. “The whole city’s gone.”I swallowed hard, feeling the sting of smoke in my throat. “They… set it on fire?”“Yeah,” he nodded, wiping soot from his face. “The vampires didn’t want to risk Ariel coming back. This was the only way to make sure.”My chest tightened, and I forced myself to tear my eyes away from the burning city. “What about the humans?”“Evacuated,” he said. “Their memories wiped clean. They’ll think it was some kind of freak gas explosion or earthquake.”I let out a shaky breath. “And the werewolves?”He smiled a little, a sad kind of smile. “We’re free now. Thanks to you.”I blinked, surprised. “Me?”“You were the reason we kept fighting,” another voice chimed in, and I turned to see a female werewolf, her face dirty and her eyes tired but wa

    SIERRA“Shut up, Zane,” I said, rolling my eyes, but I couldn’t help smiling.“You’re welcome,” he said with a wink, sauntering over and flopping down on the ground in front of me like he didn’t have a care in the world.Dane shook his head, smirking. “Zane, you’re impossible.”“Impossible and irresistible,” Zane shot back, stretching his arms behind his head like he was sunbathing instead of sitting in the middle of a forest after barely escaping death.Kane sighed, pinching the bridge of his nose. “Do you ever take anything seriously?”Zane tilted his head, pretending to think about it. “Nope.”I laughed, and it felt so good, like a weight lifting off my chest. Somehow, even after everything we’d been through, these three could still make me laugh. Still make me feel like everything might be okay.Dane reached over and brushed a strand of hair out of my face, his touch gentle. “We’ve got you, Sierra,” he said softly. “No matter what happens next.”I nodded, swallowing hard. “I know.

    SIERRAI gasped as my eyes flew open, my body jerking upright. My chest felt like it was caving in, my throat raw like I had been screaming for hours. The room was dark, the air thick with something I couldn’t name. My hands trembled as I clutched at the sheets, trying to ground myself, trying to make sense of where I was.“Sierra!”Hands gripped my arms, firm, steady, holding me in place like I might collapse at any second. My head snapped toward the voices. Zane. Kane. Dane. All of them hovering over me, eyes filled with worry, their faces tense. The warmth of their touch should have reassured me, but it only made the panic claw deeper into my chest.“What’s wrong?” Dane’s voice was sharp, demanding, like he needed to know immediately.“You screamed,” Kane added, his grip on me tightening. His jaw was clenched, his brows furrowed. “You scared the hell out of us.”I tried to swallow, but my throat was too dry. My breaths came in short, uneven gasps. My heart pounded so hard it hurt,

    SIERRAI blinked.Once.Twice.The ceiling above me wasn’t familiar. The walls were different. Everything was different.I sat up fast, my heart slamming against my ribs.Where the hell was I?The air was thick, pressing against my skin like invisible hands. Heavy. Unnatural. It clung to me, making it hard to breathe. I swallowed, forcing myself to stay calm.The room was dim, the light coming from… nowhere. No lamps, no windows, but still, a glow. Faint. Cold. My fingers curled into the sheets beneath me, silk. Soft, too soft. It sent a chill through me. This wasn’t my bed. This wasn’t my room.I turned my head, scanning the space. Large. Empty. The walls stretched endlessly, shifting between deep blue and silver, almost like they were alive, moving, breathing. The air hummed with something ancient, something powerful. My stomach twisted.Nothing made sense.And then I saw her.Standing in the corner, silent.A presence too strong to be ignored.Silver hair cascaded down her back, sh

    SIERRAThe second I stepped inside, I froze.Blood. So much blood. It stained the floor, the walls, the furniture. The smell of it, thick, metallic hung in the air, making my stomach turn. My heart pounded as my eyes darted to my friends, their faces pale, their clothes splattered in red.“What the hell happened here?” My voice came out sharp, urgent.Kane wiped a hand down his face, smearing red across his cheek. “Sierra…”I looked at Zane, then Dane. They all looked shaken.“Someone tell me what happened,” I demanded.Dane swallowed hard. “Astrid came.”I frowned. “What?”Zane exhaled, rubbing his temples. “She showed up out of nowhere. She was bleeding, barely able to stand. She tried to talk, but…”“She exploded,” Kane finished, his voice flat.I blinked. “She what?”They all exchanged glances, like they weren’t sure how to say it again. Like somehow, saying it out loud would make it more real.Dane cleared his throat, rubbing the back of his neck. “She… exploded. Like, literally.

    KANE“Hurry up, Dane! That banner looks like it’s about to fall.”Dane grumbled as he adjusted the string, his fingers fumbling with the knot. “If you’re so concerned, do it yourself.”I rolled my eyes. “I would, but someone has to make sure the cake doesn’t end up on the floor like last time.”Zane snorted from across the room as he stacked plates on the table. “That was one time. Let it go.”“One time was enough,” I shot back, giving him a pointed look. “Sierra nearly cried.”Alpha Thane chuckled as he set down a crate of drinks. “I can’t believe you boys planned all this. Sierra’s going to love it.”I smiled, glancing around the room. Balloons, streamers, and twinkling lights covered the walls. A table was stacked with gifts, food, and an enormous cake that, this time, was safely positioned far from the edges.“She deserves it,” I said. “She’s been through too much.”Dane climbed down from the chair, wiping his hands. “Yeah, and she never asks for anything in return. This is the le

So many voices.“Sierra?”I turned my head, confused by the way everyone was looking at me, worried, scared, relieved. “What?” My voice came out rough. “What’s wrong?”Dane stepped forward first. “Is it…you?”I frowned. “What the hell does that mean?”Kane let out a breath. “Your wolf took over.”I stared at him. “What?”“You weren’t here, Sierra,” my mom said gently. “Your wolf spoke to us.”A shiver ran down my spine. “She… spoke?”Zane nodded. “Yeah. She said you’re different. That you need help.”I pressed a hand to my temple. My head was pounding. “I don’t understand.”“You don’t remember?” Kane asked.I shook my head. “No. I just… I woke up, and now you’re all looking at me like I died or something.”My mom touched my face, her warm hands grounding me. “You scared us.”I swallowed, my chest tigh

    ZANEI couldn’t shake the feeling. Something was wrong.Sierra hadn’t spoken in hours. She hadn’t moved, hadn’t blinked. Just sat there, staring at the wall like she wasn’t even here. And that scared the hell out of me.I rushed to find my family. I didn’t care if I sounded crazy.“She’s not okay,” I said, breathless. “Something’s wrong with Sierra.”Luna Maya frowned. “What do you mean?”“She’s just…staring. Not talking, not moving. It’s like she’s not even in her own body.”My father stood up immediately. “Where is she?”“In her room.”We didn’t waste time. Everyone followed me, their footsteps heavy with worry. When we got there, Sierra was exactly how I left her—sitting on the edge of the bed, her hands resting on her lap, her eyes empty.“Sierra?” Luna Maya called softly.No response.“Sierra?” Dane tried, stepping closer. Still nothing.Luna Maya’s face paled. She rushed forward, kneeling in front of Sierra and grabbing her hands. “Baby, look at me,” she pleaded. “It’s Mom. Can

    SIERRAThe fire was out, but my hands wouldn’t stop shaking. My heart pounded so hard it hurt. The smell of smoke still clung to the air, burning my nose, and making my throat tight. I could still hear the screams, the crackling flames, the chaos.I pressed my palms against my face, trying to push it all away. Just breathe. Just calm down. But it wasn’t working. The panic clawed at me, twisting my insides into knots. My whole body felt wrong, like I wasn’t even in control of it anymore.A warm hand landed on my shoulder. Kane. His touch was steady, grounding. “You okay?” His voice was soft, careful. But I could hear it. The worry underneath.“No,” I whispered. My voice barely worked. “I don’t think I am.”I wasn’t okay. Not even close.Dane crouched beside me, searching my face. “You want to tell us what happened?”I let out a shaky breath. Where did I even start? The dream? The fire? The fact that I was losing control over something that should’ve been mine to command? I curled my fi

    SIERRAThe first thing I noticed was the cold.Not the kind that gives you a little shiver and makes you pull the blanket up. This was bone-deep, icy, like I’d been dumped in a frozen lake.I blinked, confused. The soft warmth of my bed was gone.“Where am I…?” I whispered, sitting up slowly.Everything looked strange. The sky above me wasn’t blue. It wasn’t night, either. It was…gray, swirling, like thick smoke. The ground beneath me was damp and cold, like wet stone.“Hello?” I called out again, louder this time, my voice echoing back at me like I was yelling into a bottomless pit.Nothing. No answer. Just thick, suffocating silence.I swallowed hard, my heart pounding as I stood up, my legs trembling beneath me. The ground felt damp and cold, like stone soaked in icy water, and a chill raced up my spine. Wherever I was, it wasn’t anywhere normal.I squinted into the grayish haze that hung in the air, swirling around me like smoke, and that’s when I saw her. Ariel.She was standing

    SIERRAIt felt so damn good to be home.The air smelled fresher, like pine and freedom, and everywhere I turned, familiar faces smiled at me. I wasn’t used to all this attention, but I couldn’t lie, it made me feel warm inside.“Can’t believe you’re really back,” Alpha Thane said as he handed me a drink. His grin stretched wide, and for once, he wasn’t scowling or trying to lecture me.“Surprise,” I teased, clinking my glass against his.“Party’s for you, you know,” he added, nodding toward the bonfire they’d just lit. “Whole pack’s been waiting for this.”I looked around and smiled. Wolves were laughing, drinking, and dancing. It felt alive. For the first time in forever, things felt right. No Ariel. No chaos. Just peace. And it was all ours.“Think they’ll fit in?” I asked, nodding toward the new wolves. They still looked a little awkward, standing in a tight group near the food table.“Give them time,” Alpha Thane said. “They’ll come around.”“Hope so,” I muttered.Just then, someo
