Tammy's POVI brush my hand over the cover, unable to believe my eyes. If this is indeed the mansion where Adam's family stays, it means grandpa or whoever owns this book, must have known something about Adam's community. 'Maybe I do need the book, after all.'Curiosity nags at me, and I open the book again. Running my hand through the inscriptions on the first page, it feels as though I can understand it if I try. I peer at it, hoping that I will be able to make sense of what is written. Rather, the writings get blurry the closer I get and my head begins to feel heavy. I slam the book shut and leave it beside me, giving up on my attempt. I take my plate and the book, drop off the untouched pie in the fridge, and go back to my room. As I lay in bed, sleep eludes me, my mind being troubled by the thoughts of having to make a decision; whether to go back to Adam's so I can uncover the connection of this book to Adam's family, or stay here and continuing with my life, as before - eve

Adam's POVIt has been days since Tammy left, and I'm not any closer to finding her. I and Eric had gone to her house, but she was not there. The place felt like she hadn't even been there at all. I couldn't get the tiniest whiff of her scent, which meant she probably never visited the place at all. I shouldn't be surprised. She knew I would come searching for her there, which was why she didn't go back. 'So where is she now?'After discovering she had gone back, Eric, Ophelia and I, alongside some other pack members, went searching for her. Father even offered some suggestions on where we could search, which was very unusual. Her disappearance has been the only thing on my mind. It got to the extent that Eric and I had to put off researching her real identity.However, all the effort was to no avail, as it seemed like she had disappeared long before we could have even suspected a thing. We were unable to catch her scent. She masked it perfectly. Nurse Roseline had not been of he

Tammy's POV I turn to face Adam, the fluorescent hospital lights reflecting off the polished floor. I'd felt his presence while talking to my patient, a shiver running down my spine as I sensed his gaze on me. I was sure he didn't know that I'd noticed him, but I had.I ended my checkup and came outside, pretending to be busy with the patient's chart while stalling for him to speak. The sound of beeping machines and muted conversations fills the air, but my attention is focused on Adam. "Hi, Adam," I greet, a smirk playing on my lips. "I expected you a lot sooner."Surprise flickers in his eyes at my admission, but he quickly comports himself, masking it with a grin. "Really?" I nod, my eyes fixed on his. His expression turns thoughtful before he replies. "You say that now, although, I would have thought that you wanted to stay hidden."The smirk on my face slips, a frown replacing it. I wasn't hiding. Well, I was, but I needed space to clear my head and come to a decision. With

Tammy's POVAfter returning the chart, I informed Nurse Roseline of my temporary departure. Surprisingly, she the news well, offering no questions and even wishing me luck. I thought it was extremely weird, but I brushed it off as her being happy for the little progress I'm in my career. I stroll to where I left Adam waiting, and I find him near the stairs. He fails to notice my presence, being engrossed in a conversation with someone over the phone. One hand is buried deep in his pocket, his brows furrowed as he speaks in hushed tones to the person on the other end of the phone. He takes out his hand, using it to pinch the bridge of his nose as the other person speaks, his expression tight. 'What could they be talking about?'Adam hangs up the call, finally taking note of my presence. His brows remain furrowed, a frown is etched on his lips when he turns to me. I want to ask if he's okay, but he speaks first. "That was Eric. There's a problem in the pack."I raise an eyebrow. "P

Adam's POVShe stands upright, her heated gaze matching mine. I will myself not to dwell on how hot she looks, standing up to me this way. She remains beautiful, even under the dim lighting.I try not to think of how I could easily fling her over my shoulders and take her to bed, showing her just how much right I have to her.'Control yourself, Adam.'Tammy's eyes narrow, as she glares at me. "What do you mean by 'I brought you here because you're my mate'?"'Fuck. Fuck. Fuck!' I rub my hands over my face. Why did I let that slip? I didn't plan on revealing it to her this way. What if she misunderstands me and attempts to leave again?It would be so much worse than the last time because contrary to my words, I wouldn't go after her again."You just had to go and ruin it, didn't you?" Thane mutters, standing up to stretch."Shut up, Thane," I snap. "You haven't even been of any help recently."Thankfully, he doesn't press it, leaving me to handle the situation by myself. I meet Tammy

Tammy's POV I stare at him, waiting for a reply. He seems short of words, his mouth opening but no sound coming out. "Well?" I prompt, my voice cool."Tammy..." He rubs the back of his neck. I raise a brow, waiting for him to speak. "I don't know how to make this sound right to you."I cross my arms. "Try. We don't have all day.""The sickness is the other reason why I brought you here. And like I told you before, there's nothing that can be done to help them out. They are all under the influence of a curse."A curse? "If I'm not capable of helping them out, that isn't a valid reason for bringing me out here, Adam. Everything just borders on one fact, that you only brought me here because you think we would end up together.""Tammy," he begins, but I hold out a hand, stopping him. "Even if I could help them out, and let's say they recover by some chance, what would you do afterward? Will you keep me here against my will? huh, Adam?" My eyes bore into his, searching for answers.He

Adam's POV Seething, I storm out of Tammy's room and down the stairs to my father's office, where I know he will be. How dare he interfere in my relationship with my mate? He tried to fill her up with doubts about me, and he was successful. Now I understand why Tammy left. His meddling is slowly starting to get on my nerves. He couldn't force me to leave her, so he tried to get her to leave me. I must say, that was a clever move on his part, but it would be the last time he meddles in my business that way. Without knocking, I barge into the office, not caring if my action is disrespectful or not. Luckily, I find him on his seat, his back to me. He glances over his shoulder as he hears the sound of the door crashing open, but other than that, he doesn't acknowledge my presence. "Father," I say, my voice low and measured. "Adam," he responds, "To what do I owe this pleasure?" He asks, still not facing me. "Why did you say that to Tammy?""Who?" he feigns ignorance, but I notice

Adam's POV I quietly shut the door quietly behind me, leaving my Father's office. I struggle to wrap my head around everything that happened just now. Of all the ways I expected my confrontation to go, none of them involved him admitting his mistakes so easily. It felt too sudden.A prickle of suspicion runs down my spine. What must have triggered it? Was he being sincere? Regardless of him claiming it was because of my mother's death anniversary coming up, I don't think that is the main reason. She died years ago, so that can't surely be enough to trigger a change of heart on his part. Tammy might just be this pack's good luck charm, after all. I walk briskly down the hallway, not knowing exactly where I'm headed as my mind is filled with questions from the conversation."Adam," Eric's voice breaks through my thoughts. He falls into step beside me. "I saw you leave Father's office. Is everything okay?"I give a curt nod, offering nothing else.Eric eyes me silently, his brows rai

Tammy's POV It's been a week since the full moon - and Adam and I were together. I haven't seen much of him since then. There have been some changes in the pack. Most of the people who fell into the curse-induced sleep have woken up. Only about five people have not woken up - of which Jackson is one. Thinking about it sends a sliver of dread down my spine. Because if he never wakes up, it'll be my fault. Aside from the people waking up, my dreams have become more frequent. And stranger. Other unusual things have been happening too.The day before yesterday, I was shaving my legs and accidentally scraped my skin. I felt the sting and saw the blood. But when I looked again, there was no injury. Not even a scratch. I would have convinced myself into believing I'd imagined it, if not for the other oddities that have been piling up lately. I also had a dream - or maybe a vision - about the handbook. It opened to a page, and I could clearly read what was written. I can't be sure I was

Alexander's POV A muffled groan escapes me as I pull at the chains binding my wrists, the cold metal biting into my skin. It's futile. No one has heard me in twenty years - I doubt today will be any different. Footsteps echo through the cave. Then, a familiar sound. "Tch tch tch." My captor clicks his tongue as he steps into the dim light. "What have I told you about making noise, Alex?" I don't respond. How can I, when I've lost my voice? He chuckles, low and cruel. "Oh, that's right. You can't speak."He moves closer, stretching out his hand. The moment his fingers hover near my skin, the searing pain begins. I should be used to it by now, but the agony never dulls. My mouth opens in a silent scream. "You know, I should have grown bored of this by now," he muses, watching me writhe. "But it still pleases me. Why is that, Alexan?" I glare at him, hatred burning in my eyes. It only amuses him. "How pitiful. The mighty Alpha of skyline pack... reduced to this. And yo

Third person's POV "Arabella!" Freya's voice cut through the stillness of the woods.'Where has she gone now?' her mother thought, pushing into the forest, searching for her daughter. Her eyes darted between the towering trees, searching for her daughter. The girl always wandered off, and Freya always had to go looking for her. A sharp squeal rang out behind her, followed by the sound of laughter. Freya spun around, heart lurching. "Arabella, come back! It’s just a bug; it won’t hurt you!""No, go away! You're gross!" The voice was closer now, high-pitched and teasing.A second later, Arabella came barreling through the trees, her black curls bouncing with each step. She crashed into Freya’s legs, giggling, until she glanced up and saw the stern set of her mother’s jaw. Freya folded her arms. "What have I said about you running off into the woods?"Arabella’s laughter died. She clasped her hands in front of her, eyes cast downward. "Not to go too far."A rustling came from the

Unknown person's POV I have been observing the girl Adam brought here - Tammy - for a while now, and none of them even suspect a thing. She isn't just a normal girl, no matter how much she tries to deny it. That night in the meeting, when she first arrived, I sensed something off about her. Something different. Her scent burned hot in my nose, too intense, too unnatural. At first, I thought it was just my heightened senses playing tricks on me. But when I saw her up close again, I knew it wasn’t. Even the people who woke up from the curse-induced sleep testified that they had seen her doing something to them. I can't believe that even when Adam was there to witness it firsthand, he still didn't try to investigate her properly. And when he eventually did, he convinced himself she was a Wanderer. He proves to be a fool at times. I'm incredibly glad that I've gotten somewhat close to them and I was able to get access to the book on Wanderers. And I'm also relieved that he wa

Tammy's POV I sit up, intrigued by what he has to say. "It happened when I was seven," Adam begins, his voice quieter now. "Around the time the curse started and my mom died. I can't seem to remember the details, but I remember thinking about the ashes on every tree. I decided I liked the color grey that day. I couldn't like the color of the ashes because of the sad memories attached to it... so I picked the color closest to it.""Shouldn't that have been white?" I tease, a soft laugh escaping me. He chuckles. "Grey's probably felt more like me. A dull, heavy nothingness."His words settle between us, and I frown. Something about his story doesn’t sit right with me. "All those things happened at once?" I ask, my brows furrowing. "That's three questions, Tammy," he points out, a ghost of a smile playing on his lips. "And to answer your illegal question - I don't know. My memories from that time are a blur. I only remember what came after.""That seems odd, don't you think?"He ex

Tammy's POV "What do you mean you can't find the key, Ophelia?" Adam's voice booms, vibrating through the thick, wooden door. He's asked her that, for might be the hundredth time, this morning. I'd woken to the sound of Adam's escalating shouts. Ophelia had so conveniently misplaced the key - my room key! And of course, there's no spare one around, because the keys were in a bundle.I fight to hold in a laugh as Adam's face flushes red, his frustration radiating off him. He's definitely tired of being trapped with me for so long. I don't blame him. After hours of forced proximity and a pretense of casual conversations, due to Ophelia's ingenious plan. We tried our best to make things less tense between us, but that has worn thin. And now, it's either Adam leaves, or we see how long we can ignore the obvious tension lingering between us. "Ophelia!" Adam roars, his fist slamming against the door again. "Find that key right now, or I swear you won't like what happens when I get out

Tammy's POV We've watched two more movies - romance and action - and I'm already starting to feel sleepy. Like she read my mind, Ophelia stands up with a yawn. "I think I'm gonna sleep now." She comes over and gives me a brief hug. "Good night, Tammy. It was so nice that you could join us." I wonder if I even had a choice.Eric, who had fallen asleep in the middle of the second movie, stirs awake. "Has the movie ended already?" He asks, and we both laugh. "Yeah," Ophelia answers. "I was just about to head back to my room.""I'll come with you," Eric says, rubbing his eyes as he stands. "Good night Tammy. Adam," he nods at his brother before they both leave the room. This movie night was more relaxing than I expected - well, if I ignore the uncomfortable moments with Adam. At some point during the movie, I’d unintentionally leaned into him, and the brief eye contact we shared felt like it lasted too long. He didn't seem to mind. But I, on the other hand, was freaking out inside.

Tammy's POV The chill of the night air seems to seep into my bones, a contrast to the heat that was pulsing through me moments before. "Forget we've ever been together," my words to Adam echo in my mind, leaving a bitter aftertaste. I watch Adam's retreating back, the broad line of his shoulders disappearing into the darkness, and a hollow ache settles in my chest. His kiss still lingers on my lips. I didn't intend to make him leave like that. Well, I did, but not in that way. I had expected things to go... smoother, to say the least.I almost regret telling him to pretend. Almost.'Liar.'The word claws its way up my throat, but I swallow it down. I know I'm not fooling anyone, especially not myself. The kiss, the way my body had responded on its own accord, even the way I’d melted into him, was a betrayal of my carefully constructed walls, of my determination to leave, and of my fear. I knew that after having a night together, he would begin to think that he had finally gotten

Adam's POV "Forget that we had sex." Her skin becomes darker, and it's noticeable even in the dim light. She clears her throat. "And uhm... also forget what happened after."I don't have to ask her what she means, understanding that she is referring to her loss of consciousness. I don't think it's something she should be ashamed of, though. But I don't tell her this, knowing that she wouldn't care to hear it. After all, she just demanded I forget everything, like it didn't mean anything to her. "Why?" I ask her. If I'm to do as she says - although it is impossible - I would have to get a good reason. It isn't just her experience; it is mine too. And it's like she's taking away my right to feel happy about being with my mate. She turns, her lips pressed into a thin line. "Why do you need an explanation?"I stand, like the seat suddenly became too hot for me. "Don't you think I deserve one? After all, you are my-" I stop myself, the word "mate" catching in my throat. I know that she
