He watched in awe as she leapt into the combat, taking down her opponents with ease.The other wolves were stunned, unsure of how to react. Nicole didn't know that her eyes, which were normally red and black, were glowing golden. She growled at the rogues who began shifting too. Nicole didn't unders
Nicole woke up to find herself in an unfamiliar room. Her head was throbbing, and she felt disoriented. She tried to remember what had happened, but her memory was hazy. It took a few moments for her to remember that she was in the pack's infirmary. All she could recall was changing into her wolf f
They all looked at her in amazement. "Really? That's interesting. Do you know why they did that?" Garrett asked.Nicole shrugged. "I don't know. Maybe they couldn't take care of me. Or maybe they didn't want me."Maya shook her head. "That doesn't make sense. Wolves don't just sell their children li
Yet, at the same time, she couldn't deny that she felt a strange sense of loyalty to the pack. It was probably because of the way they had treated her. They had taken her in and shown her kindness and acceptance. She didn't want to let them down."I'll help," she said finally, her voice barely above
As soon as Nicole was better and discharged, she was swarmed with congratulatory messages from pack members. It was exhilarating because they celebrated her like she was one of them. The kinship in Dark Moon wasn't something she experienced in any other place. Crimson didn't have it, and neither did
For the first time in her life, Nicole felt like she had a place to belong. She wouldn't delude herself into thinking that it was permanent. She knew that when the witch was defeated and when the potency of the mark faded, she would have to leave. Yet, she was a witch-bane werewolf and she had a ne
One day, as they were training, Garrett pulled her aside."Nicole," he said, looking at her with a serious expression. "There's something I have to tell you.""What is it?" she asked, feeling a little nervous."I've been doing some research about your complication with the mark from Alpha Liam," he
Things turned in another direction when Garrett warned Liam for the umpteenth time about the mark that he had imprinted on her. Liam would be lying if he said that he didn't notice that his bond with her was growing stronger. It was against everything he thought and everything he thought he wanted.
“Stop bluffing.” Marisol's smile dropped the moment the dagger slipped into her hands. “We both know that I'm not bluffing, witch.”Before Guinevere could react, Marisol drove the dagger into her heart in one forceful swing. Her eyes blew wide, and she fell right on top of Marisol, pained choking s
The air crackled with magic, and their surroundings became a battlefield of elemental forces. Marisol conjured torrents of fire, sending waves of intense heat crashing towards Guinevere. But Guinevere laughed, her own magic swirling around her like a shield as she countered with blasts of icy spears
Marisol ended up in a dimly lit chamber, the air thick with ancient magic and foreboding. Her grip on the dagger tightened, its energy pulsing against her skin as if urging her forward.She didn't know where she was or how she got there. All she did was allow her senses to lead her, and it seemed th
By the time the truth had fully sunk in, Cedric was a whirlwind of fury and grief. He turned on Leticia, his eyes blazing with a primal rage as he grabbed her roughly, his grip like a vice around her throat."Cedric, stop!" Caleb's voice rang out, his tone commanding. "This won't bring Marisol back.
Caleb's brow pinched in concern as he took in Cedric's disheveled state. “How? Was Guinevere here?” He looked around frantically and found no sign of infiltration. He turned back to his brother. “Don't worry, we'll find her," he assured, his voice a steady anchor within the chaos that was Cedric's m
In the hushed stillness of the night, when the world lay shrouded in darkness and all was quiet, Marisol rolled out of bed. It was time.She knew what she had to do. A sense of duty pulsed through her veins, driving her from the warmth of her bed.Silently slipping out from beneath the covers, she m
Marisol's heart swelled with conflicting emotions at Cedric's declaration. His eyes, conveying his utmost sincerity, almost had her bursting into tears where she sat. Instead, she forced a smile, her applause joining in with the others, though inside, she felt a pang of sadness.“That's wonderful ne
A smile spread across Marisol's face as she turned around in his arms to face him. “Nervous? Why on earth…”“Okay, I was nervous on your behalf.” He admitted with a sheepish grin, and Marisol regarded him with a fond smile. “But Leticia was right. When we retreated, they prowled around aimlessly for
Marisol stepped out of Leticia's chambers with a million thoughts bubbling in her head. She didn't know if she wanted to scream or cry. Maybe she wanted to do both. It was so unfair. Her parents had told her she was destined for greatness. Was this fate's idea of greatness? To be made to sacrifice
