Liam's heart was heavy with dread as he stood in his office, staring out the window at the pack grounds. His wolf was restless, and he couldn't shake the feeling of impending doom. He turned around when he heard the door open and saw James and Garrett enter."James, what's the status of the scouting
James put a hand on Liam's shoulder. "We'll figure it out, Liam. We'll make sure she stays."Liam looked up at James, his eyes pleading. "I've never felt like this before. I don't know what I'm doing."James nodded. "You're doing your best. The old you would have compelled everyone into doing your b
Liam felt his anger rising again and he took a step back, trying to keep his temper in check. "You don't understand anything, Lilian," he said, his voice cold. "Nicole is not just a slave. She's a person. When did you become like this? We swore to treat everyone equally. And I care about her."Lili
Nicole was training with Maya and Asha when she suddenly felt a strange and overpowering sensation within her. It was like an itch that needed to be scratched, an intense desire to let go and let her wolf take control. She tried to fight it, but the feeling was too strong. Her wolf was stirring, an
As the day turned to dusk, Nicole found a quiet spot in the forest and lay down to sleep. She felt the soft earth beneath her and the cool breeze against her fur. She was at peace, finally able to fully embrace the wolf within her.The forest was a magical place for Nicole. She was in tune with her
He had never seen any being more perfect than her. After long minutes passed, she stood up, stretching her long, lean body, and padded over to him.For another moment, Liam and Nicole simply stood there, looking at each other. But then, without warning, Nicole began to nuzzle his neck, her nose buri
Nicole froze. Liam!She fell back and sprinted off. Her heart was pounding. Liam was her mate? It was unbelievable!Surprised, Liam followed her. Nicole ran until she led him to a clearing, where she suddenly shifted back into her human form. Liam was shocked, but he couldn't look away. He had neve
“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
