The next day I was up early and in the training grounds ready for a fresh new session. Saying goodbye to my family yesterday had been so emotional but I could not allow it to prevent me from focusing.

Training became my refuge, a sanctuary where I could momentarily forget the chaos and uncertainties that surrounded the Garson pack. It was in the solitude of those intense training sessions that I found solace, reminding myself of the importance of having a clear mind in facing the challenges ahead.

My dedication to training had always been my absolute top priority and even though my perspective on things like mates and bondings had shifted, I knew that my commitment to becoming a formidable fighter remained unaltered. With every relentless push, Hugh was there, urging me to go further, to delve deeper into my potential. His support became the catalyst that propelled me to exceed my own expectations.

Alpha Arnie, Luna, and the pack as a whole recognized my dedication an

    "I must say, Hallie, your dedication and progress in your training are commendable, especially given the current circumstances," Alpha Arnie remarked, his voice resonating with genuine admiration. He was right; everything had been crazy lately, but my training was still my top priority, and I had to focus on that. "Yes, Alpha Arnie," I replied, trying to keep my voice steady. "Despite the recent upheavals, I've been giving my all in my training. It's been a way to stay focused and channel my energy positively." The alpha nodded, a hint of admiration in his eyes. "I applaud your resilience, Hallie. It's not easy to maintain focus and drive amidst turmoil. But it's precisely during these trying times that we need warriors like you, who can rise above the chaos and set an example for the rest of the pack." His words filled me with a renewed sense of purpose. To be recognised for my effort and dedication was an honour, and I would not take it lightly. "Thank you, Alph

    The next day, after my early morning training session, I sighed in disappointment when I couldn't reach my family on the phone. They must have been busy or had their phones on silent. I decided to call them later after my fight against Alpha Arnie's top warriors. Feeling a mix of nerves and anticipation, I headed for a refreshing bath to clear my mind and prepare myself mentally for the challenges ahead. The warm water washed away any lingering doubts, leaving me feeling ready and focused. After drying off, I slipped into comfortable training clothes and crawled into bed for an early night, eager to rest well and wake up refreshed. As the alarm sang its bright tune the following day, I sprang out of bed, feeling a surge of adrenaline already coursing through my veins. Today was the day I would face Alpha Arnie's top fighters and prove my mettle. I made my way to the training grounds, a vast field surrounded by towering trees that swayed gently in the morning breeze. The ground

    Without wasting another moment, we quickly made our way to alpha Arnie's residence. As we arrived, we found him standing outside, his towering presence exuding authority and wisdom. Hugh quickly explained the situation, expressing our need for guidance. To my surprise, Alpha Arnie's face immediately turned serious. "This is grave news," he spoke in a commanding tone. "I sense great danger has befallen your old pack. We must go and check on them immediately." Without hesitation, Alpha Arnie ordered his assistant to arrange a car for the three of us to travel to my old pack territory. The tension in the air was palpable as they drove in silence, each lost in their own thoughts. As we traveled back to my old pack's territory, Moonstone Manor, a sense of unease settled over me. The usually lively forest was eerily quiet, the air heavy with an ominous stillness. Alpha Arnie decided it would be best for me to wait in the car while he and Hugo went to investigate. I reluctantly agre

    Jax's expression was a mixture of relief and concern as he gently removed his hand from my face. His voice was filled with sorrow as he began to recount the horrifying events that had unfolded in Moonstone Manor. "Hallie, I can't believe you're still alive," he whispered, his voice choked with emotion. "They came in the dead of night, a group of rogue werewolves led by a ruthless alpha. They attacked us without warning, overpowering our defences and slaughtering anyone in their path. It was chaos, Hallie, sheer chaos." Tears streamed down my face as Jax continued to share the gruesome details. My heart shattered at the thought of the destruction and loss of our pack. The weight of my guilt pressed heavily upon me, knowing that I could have fought alongside them. "But why, Jax? Who would want to destroy us?" I asked, my voice trembling with a mix of confusion and anger. Jax sighed heavily, his eyes filled with pain and determination. "I've been trying to figure that out since

    He towered over us, his muscles bulging beneath his tattered clothes, and a wild, unkempt beard framed his weathered face. Dangerous energy emanated from him, a dark aura that sent shivers down my spine. "Hand over the maps," he snarled, his voice dripping with malice. "I won't ask again." Jax and I locked eyes, a silent understanding passing between us. We would never give in to his demands, not when our family's lives were at stake. "We'll never give you the maps," I said, my voice steady and robust. "They belong to our family and no one else." “Fine then.” he clicked his fingers and two overweight, grey haired men stepped beside him, each grabbing Alpha Arnie and Hugh. “What about them two?” one of them said eyeing me with interest. I wanted to throw up at the sight of him. A feral grin spread across the stranger's face, revealing yellowed teeth. “I will deal with these two.” he laughed and then turned back to me and Jax. “Your precious Hugh and Arnie will

    “I'm not sure I can trust him.” Jax's words were barely audible as he whispered to me, and I shot a piercing glare at Victor. The lack of trust I felt towards him was mutual. My mate and Arnie were missing, and someone had to be held accountable for the chaos and destruction they had caused. "Where is Hugh? Release him immediately if you don't want me to unleash my fury upon you," I demanded, my anger boiling. This was my home, my family, and these unworthy individuals dared to think they could snatch away what didn't belong to them. My voice grew louder, my words filled with a palpable rage. The wolf within me yearned to break free, to take control of the situation. It was time to end this madness once and for all. "You filthy creatures come here and believe you can trespass on our territory without consequences? Well, you're sorely mistaken. Prepare yourselves for the wrath you've brought upon yourselves!" Then my brother George intervened, his voice growling with authority.

    "Wait, Hallie," Grace called out, her voice desperately trying to stop me. Reluctantly, I halted, my weariness evident. Standing beside Grace was George, his face filled with guilt and remorse. "It was my father's plan. This whole thing is a setup. Hugh and his father are safe. No one has been hurt. It's all a lie," Grace revealed, leaving me in disbelief. What was she saying? A mixture of frustration, confusion, and anger surged through me as I struggled to process the shocking information Grace had just unveiled. All this time, I had been led to believe that our pack, our family, was facing imminent danger and that our loved ones were at risk. And now, I discovered it was all a meticulously plotted deception orchestrated by Grace's father. George's gaze dropped to the floor, and a heavy disappointment radiated as I looked into his eyes. "Hallie, everything spiralled out of control," he confessed, his voice laced with remorse. "No one was supposed to get hurt. But my father has

    George inhaled deeply, his eyes scanning the room for the perfect words to convey the gravity of the situation. "These tunnels, Hallie," he began, "they're not just ordinary tunnels. They connect us to other pack territories, including the one that attacked Grace's pack. When he discovered those maps, he used them against us. I was powerless to stop it." As the realization settled in, my heart skipped a beat. The pieces fell into place, and a wave of truth crashed over me. Our father had been concealing a pathway to other wolf packs, including the very one that had caused us so much pain. "Elite pack?" murmured Alpha Arnie, a flicker of understanding crossing his face. "Yes. They're the same ones who attacked you, Alpha Arnie. They wanted to get to Hallie. It's a tangled mess," George's voice shook with anger and bitterness. The room suddenly felt suffocating, each breath I took becoming shorter and more frantic. This was more than I could handle, more than I could ever have imag

    I turned to Simone, my eyes locked on hers. "Why do they want my sister?" I asked again, my voice barely above a whisper.Simone's expression was grim. "We don't know for sure," she said. "But we need to be careful. Aurora is not someone to be underestimated. George nodded in agreement. "We'll get to the bottom of this," he said. "But first, we need to get everyone to safety. Veronica, you have to go through the portal back to Garson. Luna will be there waiting for you. I promise.” Veronica shook her head profusely. “No, I can't leave you.” she refused. Simone stepped forward, her eyes locked on my sisters. "Veronica, we need to make sure you're safe. You're the only one who can...interface with the portal. We can't risk anything happening to you."With a deep breath, I turned and pushed my sister through the portal. She fell and screamed, leaving everything behind.“I'm sorry,” I whispered and wiped a tear from my face. She would be fine, and I would see her again very soon. For no

    "We need to get her back to your parents," Simone said, her voice firm. I nodded, knowing that we had to move quickly. We couldn't let our guard down even a moment, not with the threat of the unknown looming over us.As we returned to the castle, I couldn't shake the feeling we were being watched. I glanced around, my senses on high alert, but I saw nothing unusual.But as we approached the castle gates, I noticed something strange. The air seemed to be charged with an eerie energy, and I could feel the hairs on the back of my neck standing on end."Something's wrong," I whispered to Simone, my voice barely audible.Simone's eyes narrowed as she scanned the surrounding area. "I don't see anything," she said, her voice calm and reassuring.But I knew that she was wrong. I could feel it in my bones - something was off, something was wrong.And then, without warning, everything went dark.I felt myself being lifted off the ground and felt my body being pulled away from Simone, Veronica

    "Who are you?" Veronica whimpered, cowering behind me as a towering, ominous figure emerged from the shadows. The man's cruel laughter cut through the tense silence like a knife."You don't remember me, little one?" he mocked his voice a sinister rasp that sent chills down my spine. The imposing silhouette stepped into the soft fairy light, revealing a gaunt, twisted face I had hoped never to see again. A sense of dread washed over me like icy tendrils - this was no mere foe but the same evil force that had held Veronica captive, the monster we had fought so desperately to defeat. He was trying to trick us into thinking it was two different people."Don't tell me your pitiful little mind has already forgotten our time together," he sneered, fixing Veronica with a predatory stare that made her tremble violently. "After all the delightful torture I put you through to break your will."White-hot rage surged through my veins. How dare this vile creature show his face here, in our sanctua

    As the world around us shifted once more, the human city dissolved into nothingness, replaced by the familiar surroundings of the enchanted forest. I held on to Veronica tightly, reassuring her that we were safe, that we were going home. She was back with me now, thanks to Simone, and I swore I would never let her out of my sight again. When the swirling sensation finally subsided, we found ourselves in the heart of the enchanted forest, the soft glow of fairy lights surrounding us. Veronica and I collapsed onto the soft forest floor, panting and exhausted from our ordeal. “We did it, Veronica. We're safe now,” I whispered, grateful for the bond between us that had seen us through the darkest of times. Veronica nodded, a small smile of relief gracing her lips. “Thank you, Hallie, for coming to save me and not giving in on me. You are the best big sister. I want to see our family now and everything to be ok.” she said. Just then, Simone appeared beside us, her expression earn

    My heart raced with anticipation as I stood beside Simone, deep within the heart of the enchanted forest. She held out a small vial filled with a shimmering potion. The magical elixir thrummed with energy, a potent concoction that would allow us to teleport to the human city. Simone and I locked eyes, and an enchanting aroma filled the air, intermingling with the scents of the forest. My grip on Simone's hand tightened as the world around us began to blur, reality shifting and bending to our will. I could feel a pull, an invisible force drawing me away from the safety of the enchanted forest and into the unknown. Our surroundings melted away, and in the blink of an eye, the forest gave way to the bustling streets of the human city. My senses were momentarily overwhelmed by the sights and sounds surrounding me. The human city towered before us, a sprawling metropolis filled with a vibrant blend of cultures and experiences. I took a moment to collect myself, allowing the adrenalin

    I stared at Simone, disbelief and curiosity warring within me. Part of me wanted to dismiss her claims as nonsense, but a small voice inside me pleaded to listen, to consider the possibility that my father may still be alive. "What do you mean by 'forces at play'?" I finally managed to ask, my voice trembling with fear and hope. Simone's gaze intensified, her eyes locked with mine. "Hallie, there are supernatural beings, dark powers, that seek to control and manipulate. Your father stumbled upon a dangerous secret that threatened their hold on this world. He had to go into hiding to protect you and your sister. My family did what they could to help. But we will discuss this in the morning. It’s late now, and you should get some rest. Your mother and Hugh are already resting.” As much as I wanted to push for answers immediately, her suggestion to get some rest resonated with me. I knew that a clear mind would be crucial in the coming days. Nodding reluctantly, I mustered a s

    Reluctantly, my mother sank back into her seat, her hands trembling with grief. "Okay," she whispered, her voice barely audible. "Just... find her, please." Tears streamed down her face as she reluctantly accepted the harsh reality of the situation.As we drove further away, leaving behind the familiar and venturing into the unknown, I couldn't help but wonder what awaited us at our destination. Would it be a place of safety and solace, or would it be filled with more danger and uncertainty? Either way, I was prepared to face whatever challenges lay ahead.“We need to find your sister, Hallie; Veronica is alone. Goddess knows what could’ve happened to her.” My mother said. “Luna Harriet, I will do everything in my power to find Veronica and put things right but for now, your and Hallie's safety is my number one priority, please trust me,” Hugh promised her before I could even think of a response. Soon, we were pulling up outside a small castle that probably looked beautiful once upo

    Reluctantly, I climbed into the car, my every muscle tense with defiance. Gritting my teeth, I couldn't help but feel a surge of frustration and anger at being kept at arm's length, robbed of the opportunity to fight for my family and uncover the truth. Thoughts of my father and sister's safety raced through my mind, fueling my determination to find them. As the car accelerated, leaving the chaos behind, I stared out the window, frustration simmering. The faces of our pack, once so familiar, began to fade into the distance. Though they believed they were acting in our best interest, I couldn't shake the feeling that I was being denied the chance to play an active role in rescuing my loved ones and unravelling the mystery. Amidst the heavy silence, Jax's voice broke through my thoughts and echoed in my mind as he linked me... "We will find a way to fix this, Hallie," he assured me. "We won't rest until we've brought your father and sister back to safety." I shut off the Mindlink,

    "Get off my father, you deranged, psychopathic bitch!" Grace's thunderous roar echoed through the air as she lunged in front of me. However, I deftly seized her and pulled her back. "What on earth are you doing, you reckless fool?" she scowled at me while I firmly restrained her, paying no heed to her furious screams. Jerod, blood dripping from his wounds, struggled against my mother's fierce attack. But she held him down, preventing him from causing any further harm. Her eyes bore into his, filled with anger and disappointment. "Your deceit ends here, Jerod," my mother's voice resonated with authority. "Your actions have put this pack at risk, and you will face the consequences." she shoved him to the wall and quickly shifted back into her human form. “Hallie, I am so sorry that I wasn't here. I will explain everything.” my mother turned to me and said. “Luna Harriet. Your mate is just as much to blame. Silly shewolf.” Jerod chuckled. “Come on. This is not the way.
