Maya nodded, her excitement momentarily dampened. "You're right, Asha. I'm just so curious. It's not every day that we have a potential Luna in our midst."Nicole's brows furrowed, her mind racing with conflicting emotions. Becoming Liam's mate meant more than just a romantic connection. It meant ta
As Rose's fist whizzed past her, Nicole countered with a powerful kick to Rose's midsection, causing her to stumble backwards. Determined not to let up, Rose recovered quickly, launching a flurry of punches and kicks in rapid succession.Nicole deftly blocked and dodged each strike, her body moving
Nicole spent the whole evening and night pondering the latest events with Asha, Rose, and Maya. She was confused and wanted to understand what Maya meant. Since Liam was very busy planning for the full moon run that was to take place soon, she didn't get a chance to discuss it with Liam. He knew th
With that, she began walking away. Nicole swallowed as she watched her go.Suddenly, Maya stopped and turned to her. "For what it is worth, I believe in you, Nicole. You're a better option than all the others combined."With those words, Maya turned away, leaving Nicole standing there, her heart hea
Nicole's blood turned cold. Suddenly, Maya's words began to make sense. "So Nicole, you see why Rose is mad. I wouldn't blame her. Or any female. They were all gunning to be Luna. Rose, in particular, thought she was his favorite, and she believed she would become Luna. And now rumor has it that yo
Liam couldn't shake off the nagging feeling that something was amiss with Nicole. Her withdrawal, her distant demeanor—it weighed heavily on his heart. He knew they needed time alone to communicate and sort things out, but his responsibilities as Alpha kept pulling him in different directions.As t
Liam froze. He didn't want to remember that deal. He wanted it to be expunged. She was his mate. How was he supposed to let her leave? Was it his Karma?"Don't leave me," he muttered so softly. He didn't think he could bear the heartbreak. "We still have time to figure this out together, Nicole. We
Nicole was tentative about James's presence. Out of everyone in the pack, she feared him the most. They walked together, finding comfort in the quietness of the surrounding woods."Nicole," James began, his voice firm yet gentle. "I haven't spoken to you about this before because I thought it was a
“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
