Kim is here?!!
My heart clenched as I stared at Kim, trying to keep my face neutral. Abby caught my shocked expression and leaned in to whisper conspiratorially. "That's Kim—you know, the daughter of Luna Meranda and Alpha Justin. She's kind of a big deal around here.” “Why…why is that?” I asked, trying to act as if I didn’t know who Kim was. “Are you serious right now?” Abby questioned. “She’s the future Luna to Alpha heir, Terry. On top of that, she will be the first Luna to run a pack on her own as Alpha Justin and Luna Meranda are stepping down to allow her to combine her pack with Terry’s.” Abby sounded impressed, but her words made me feel ill. "Oh," was all I could manage to say. My stomach churned with disgust at how highly they thought of her. "You're a hard one to impress," Abby laughed, "but that makes sense because you're from the BloodRose pack, but I am surprised that you never saw her in person. Did you not attend any pack events?" “I was very focused on my training,” I responded
The cold, damp earth pressed against my cheek as I stirred from unconsciousness. Opening my eyes, I found myself lying in the heart of the forest. Panic surged through me—how had I gotten here? I remembered Dr. Mitchell's assistant hugging me, followed by a painful prick, before I became unconscious
"Could they already have her?" Noah asked.“No, they would be taunting us right now. They’re probably as lost as we are,” I responded, trying to sound more confident than I felt. “Let's focus on what we can do. The flag capture is only successful if any of us can get Kim out of the forest, so we can
KimSurely they don't think that tying my hands and feet will make me wait for help, do they?The cold wind whipped through the trees, sending shivers down my spine as I kept my gaze fixed on the cave where my captors had left me. It was laughable, really. How stupid could they be to think that tyin
I haven't dreamed about Kim in ages, yet I heard her voice.A cold shiver ran down my spine as I awoke, the smell of morning dew filling my nostrils. I rubbed my eyes, trying to shake off the remnants of sleep. From the cave entrance, I could see that the forest was still veiled in morning mist. The
“You should’ve stayed where you were, and we would’ve found you yesterday,” Noah responded. “That would be too easy,” Kim stated. "Since you guys found me, you're clearly the winners of this competition, but you've got to get me back to the finish line." "You probably should hurry." Her voice had a
"Here, let me help you with that," Kim said, reaching for one of the thermos that I was holding.I pulled away from her touch, my eyes narrowing. "I don't need your help, Kim. What are you really here for?"Kim frowned and crossed her arms over her chest, clearly offended by my tone. "What's your pr
TerryNothing ever seems to go well when Kalani and Kim run into each other.From my spot at the edge of the stage, I clenched my fists as emotions battled within me as I looked at Kailani’s triumphant smile. The girl had exceeded my expectations, and secretly, I couldn't help but feel happy for her
Kailani”If a person is deemed worthy, the path to the wolf den will be revealed to them and they can go to challenge the wolves. If that person wins, they can choose a wolf. If the wolf does not accept that person, even after winning, that person will be killed. But if accepted, in the place blesse
Kailani“Every year, the Dark Brood pack goes to the black market for an exchange event. Other packs go there too to harvest beasts with potential,” Veil explains, her tone brisk as she resumes walking. “Packs will exchange wolves in an auction. Then the selected will go through the wolf exchange pr
KailaniI know my days are numbered. I was failing at convincing Houston to trust me. I was no closer than I was when I first arrived. I force a smile, trying to keep my voice light. “If I died, would you miss your troublesome apprentice?” Veil rolls her eyes and scoffs at me. “That’s a pointless
KailaniI've been living with the Dark Brood pack for almost four months, though it feels like a lifetime. Time here has a way of blurring, each day bleeding into the next until I can't tell where one ends, and another begins. My status within the pack has shifted subtly. I hadn’t noticed until Mad
DamianAbby frowned at Terry and said, “Do you think because we’re here that I care about your attitude? Let’s not forget you almost mated a terrible bitch of woman that abused her own sister, so your decision making skills aren’t that high up there."That‘s my girl!I couldn’t help but smirk at her
DamianEverything was coming together.I was surprised at how easy it was to convince Alpha heir Terry to hear out of my proposition. He must be truly desperate to find whoever this mysterious woman. I had heard about him breaking off his engagement with Kim, the eldest daughter of the Iron Claw pac
Abby“I know,” I responded as I left my room and made my way to my parents’ room. Once Alex had brought me home in a wheelchair, my parents didn’t leave me alone. I was under house arrest for an entire month as I fully recovered.I hesitated at their door before thrusting the door open."Mom, Dad,"
AbbyWater droplets clung to my skin as I stepped out of the shower, steam clouding the glass door behind me. My muscles ached from another rigorous workout session, an attempt to distract myself from the thoughts that plagued me. But as much as I tried, my mind kept returning to Kailani and the gui
Terry“Listen kid, I told you…”I quickly grabbed him by the neck and squeezed hard. My claws digging into his flesh. “I have limited patience. Tell me what you’re hiding or I’ll break your neck right here, right now.”“Okay, okay, okay,” the man choked out and I released him. “The only thing I foun
