KAI Panic clawed at my chest the moment I stepped into Alina’s room and saw it empty. She wasn’t here. The bed was neatly made, her things were still scattered around the room, but she was gone. My mind raced as I stood frozen in the doorway, my heart hammering in my chest. She couldn’t have just vanished. Could she? I did not want to the consider the other option of it. That she was not here, and she had left a week ago which meant that she had succumbed to whatever fate that waited her out of the pack already.“Alina?” I called out, even though I knew it was useless. The room was empty, silent.Without wasting another second, I tore through the palace, checking every room, every hallway, every nook and cranny. Nothing. She wasn’t anywhere. My steps quickened, my breathing growing ragged as I searched everywhere for her, my mind whirling with all the possibilities of where she could be. I knew she had a bond with my sisters now. I was hoping that I was going to find her here, but I

ALINA I was still in shock. Even when I was in her arms, I felt like this was not real. That it was too good to be true. My mother could not be standing here in front of me right now. She died, several ages ago. “I… I don’t understand,” I choked out, my voice muffled against her shoulder. “How are you here? How are you alive?”She pulled back slightly, just enough to look at me, her hands gently cupping my face. “I’ve been alive since that day,” she said softly, her voice filled with emotion. “After the accident, I lost my memory. I didn’t know who I was or where I belonged. I’ve been searching for answers, but it took so long…”I blinked, the confusion swirling in my mind. “Why didn’t you come to find me? Why didn’t you come sooner?”She sighed, her expression pained. “I was sick for a long time, Alina. After the accident, I wasn’t just dealing with memory loss. I was physically weak, too. It took years for me to recover, to regain enough strength to start searching for you. But by

KAI The day of my coronation had finally come. The day I had been waiting for my entire life. But as I stood there, dressed in ceremonial robes, ready to ascend to the throne, all I could think about was Alina.I had sent out so many troops, the best of the best, to search for her. I had made them scour every pack, from the biggest and most powerful to the small, hidden ones that lingered in the shadows of the woods. Every day I waited for news, every day I hoped they would return with her. But none of them had. None had come back with even a trace of her. It was like she had disappeared off the face of the earth.My heart ached at the thought of her, out there somewhere, alone and possibly in danger. But I couldn’t do anything about it. Not today. Today, I had to focus on my duty. I had to become the alpha of the Seven Isles. It was the only way to secure the future of the pack, the only way to ensure that I had the power and resources to find her.As I stood at the front of the gra

KAIThe slums were worse than I remembered.I hadn’t been here in years, but the sight of it now turned my stomach. The air was thick with the stench of waste and decay, and the ground was a mix of mud, filth, and human waste. The slum dwellers huddled together in ragged clothes, their faces gaunt and pale, some of them wheezing and coughing as they drank thin, watery soup from cracked bowls. Flies buzzed around them, and the few children I saw looked skeletal, their eyes hollow.This was the part of the Seven Isles my father had never cared about. He had poured all his resources into the capital, lavishing attention and wealth on the nobles and the elite, while the poor were left to rot in these wretched streets. He had claimed that maintaining the wealth of the capital was all that mattered, that the poor were a burden best ignored.It was why all of the werewolves had such high regard for us. They knew that we had resources and could do whatever we wanted to do, but none of them kn

KAI The air around us felt thick and heavy as we made our way deeper into the forest. Every step I took felt more uncertain than the last, the weight of what I was about to face pressing down on me like a suffocating blanket. Yara, walking ahead of me moved with her eyes closed as if she were seeing something that I couldn’t.I glanced at her, confused by her closed eyes. "Can you really see like that?" I asked, the question slipping out before I could stop myself.She smiled faintly, not breaking her stride. “I’m not seeing in the way you think, Kai. I’m feeling the magic in the air. It guides me.”I stared at her for a moment, trying to wrap my mind around that. I had always been skeptical of magic, but now I was walking beside a witch, relying on her to help me find Alina. The thought was unsettling, to say the least, but I shoved my discomfort to the back of my mind. I didn’t have the luxury of doubt. Not now. I knew how frowned upon it was, but it was worth it.We walked for wha

KAI The night was eerily quiet as Yara and I made our way back into the clearing where the skinwalkers had hidden their nest. We waited until the sun was down and it was almost midnight. We could hear them as they passed by us, and I even checked out some of them as they moved through the night. They were faster and more agile, so it made sense that they were able to catch and eat anyone that came in their way. As we reached the place where they resided, Yara and I paused. I could feel the tension in the air. Yara’s expression was grim, her eyes closed once again as she silently chanted under her breath, feeling the magic that hung in the air like a thick fog. As we stepped into the clearing, we walked as fast as we could to the place where we had seen Alina earlier. Once we reached it, I was glad to see her at the same spot. She was sitting on a stone bench, her posture unnaturally rigid, her eyes wide and vacant, and that unsettling smile still stretched across her face. My hear

ALINA My heart was in my throat as I made my way to the hospital, every step feeling heavier than the last. The person that brought us here, which assumed was the witch was gone. I had to yell out for help for the guards to come and help me. That was all five days ago. I was in the hospital too because I had lost my baby, but I felt too much trauma to even feel anything about it. I just wanted Kai to be okay. Because I was supposed to be the one in the hospital room, sick and dying from the skin walker’s venom. The weight of guilt sat on my chest like a boulder, crushing me with every breath I took. I couldn’t get the image of Kai collapsing out of my head, the way his body had crumpled when he took the venom meant for me. It should have been me. I had already failed in so many ways, but this felt like the ultimate failure. And the worst part? I hadn’t even realized just how much I still cared for him until I saw him fall. I pushed the doors open to the hospital, my hands trembling,

ALINA A week had passed, but the mourning never really ended. The pack was in a state of confusion and grief, but none of it felt real to me. Nothing had felt real since Kai’s death. I was in a painful stage of derealisation. I was walking through the motions, pretending like I was still functioning, but inside, everything was hollow. Jaime, however, had wasted no time. He had pushed for the coronation to happen as quickly as possible, and here we were—just days after Kai’s death, and Jaime was already the new alpha. He had forced everyone to move on from the traumatic event, which was not as easy as it seemed. I have never met someone that cruel, and I knew a fair share of people that were cruel. I couldn’t even believe it. None of this made sense. How could the pack move on so easily? How could they sit here, in celebration, while Kai’s body was in a crypt beneath the palace? The thought made my stomach turn. I had asked Lily earlier if there was going to be a funeral for Kai. If

Four years laterALINA Years had passed, and life in the pack had settled in a way I had never imagined. As I stood in my bakery, gazing out the window and watching children run around, a warm smile played on my lips. It was one of those beautiful, crisp autumn mornings when the sunlight filtered through the trees, casting soft golden shadows across the cobblestones. My heart felt light, a rare but cherished feeling I’d come to treasure over time. My life had felt unreal for the past years. My two children, Kian and Liana, were heading off to school for the first time today. The thought made me emotional, but it also made me proud. Watching them grow up reminded me of just how far we’d come. With a sigh, I turned back to the bakery, smoothing my apron. The smell of freshly baked bread, warm spices, and sweet pastries filled the room. I had opened the bakery and bookshop a few years ago, not long after my children were born. It had quickly become one of the most beloved spots in the

ALINA It was my wedding day, and I was bursting with a mix of excitement and nerves. I sat in front of the mirror, my heart racing as my mother fluffed out the skirt of my dress, her hands gentle. I couldn’t believe this was finally happening. After everything Kai and I had been through, we were here, about to say our vows. It almost felt like a dream that I was going to be woken up from. I was so happy that it felt like there was an end to it. That I was just deluding myself by being happy. I glanced at my mother, her face calm and focused as she adjusted the veil atop my head.“You look beautiful, Alina,” she said, her eyes softening as she took a step back to admire me. Her voice was full of pride, and I could see a shimmer of emotion in her gaze. “You’re radiant.”I took a deep breath, feeling my nerves intensify. “Mom, I’m nervous,” I confessed, fidgeting with the lace on my dress. “What if something goes wrong?”She chuckled softly, placing a comforting hand on my shoulder. “Ev

KAI I did not know how I managed to make the witches come on my side, but I did. I knew that they were crucial in my plan of getting the skin walkers away from my pack, but I did not think they would come around in just one meeting. All of this really happened because of Alina’s mother. If she had not been around, I did not know if I was going to be able to get them but now I did and I was the happiest about it. I felt bad that I tried to sabotage her coming here in the first place. Since time had passed and I saw that there was a visible bad account of her being in the pack, I was grateful. Everyone found out that maybe witches were not that bad after all. We have been told the bad news about them all of the time by our parents, but maybe it was just because they hated them and they were trying to push that hate onto us too. Maybe that was the reason. Or maybe we have not yet seen the bad part of having witches around us, and I hoped that it was not going to happen any time soon.

Chapter 80ALINA The merging of the Seven Isles, the Waterstone Pack, and Blackstone Pack had finally come together smoothly, though it hadn’t been an easy process. Months of strategizing, deliberating, and forging alliances had brought Kai to this moment. It was the best three months of my life. Having my mother and Kai beside me through all of this was something I didn’t even know I deserved.I was so happy for the first time in my life. It felt like I did not even deserve everything that has been going on. The packs were now unified, and as a result, they were stronger against their common enemy—the skin walkers. The witches, with me have strategized the way we are going to kill them. My mother had been a good help. She had a lot of experience so she was helping all of us. She was a great teacher. Kai was glad that I had brought her back to life now, and so are the elders and lords. She had been great help. If she didn’t come back, then we would have all been dead by now. The ski

Chapter 79KAII was panicking. The entire night I spent pacing back and forth, replaying everything that had happened between Alina and me. The way her eyes had looked so hurt when I didn’t defend her, the way she stormed out with her mother—angry and disappointed. And now, she hadn’t come back. I gave her the night, thinking maybe she just needed some space, but when she didn’t return the next morning, panic surged through me.What did I even expect sending her out? Of course she wouldn’t be back trying to beg me to come back in the palace. That wasn’t the type of person she was. And it was all my damn fault. I couldn’t focus on anything else. I had a meeting scheduled with the new elders I appointed at the Black Water Pack, but my mind was elsewhere—on her. Even as I sluggishly got ready, everything felt out of sync. When I finally made my way into the meeting room, I could tell everyone was already waiting, but I couldn’t muster the energy to care. My thoughts were consumed by A

ALINA I couldn’t shake the feeling of betrayal gnawing at my heart as I walked away from the palace with my mother by my side. The sting of Kai’s rejection, the way he hadn’t backed me in front of Aunt Arya weighed heavy on my chest. I’d expected him to stand by me, to protect me like he always had, but instead, he chose fear over love.After all, I did. I risked my mother’s life and mine to save him from the skinwalkers. I was a newbie witch so I possibly could not do all of that. But my mother helped me siphon magic from some of the artifacts that contained magic. She told me that it could kill me, doing that, but I still went ahead to do it because I could not stand Kai getting hurt when there was something I could do about it. How he had driven me out of his house simply because of something he saw, not knowing that my mother was trying to wield back strength after what I went through while killing the white walkers. As we made our way through the winding streets, the evening ai

KAI A day had passed, but the events of yesterday still weighed heavily on my mind. Alina’s mother—brought back from the dead. The skin walkers. The power Alina wielded was undeniable but dangerous. Even with everything going on around me, I could not help but feel like it was all a dream, yet the growing unease I felt was very real. I knew I had to talk to someone about it, and Lily was the only one who could help me make sense of this chaos.When I found her in the meeting room, I didn’t waste any time. “Lily,” I began, running a hand through my hair, “something happened yesterday… something big.”She looked up from her notes, sensing the tension in my voice. “What happened? Is everything okay?”I shook my head, taking a seat across from her. “Alina brought her mother back from the dead using magic. Can you even believe it?”Lily’s eyes widened in disbelief. “What? How? I mean, I know she’s a witch, but… bringing someone back from the dead? That’s ancient, forbidden magic. If not

KAI Alina was gone for a few hours and I was growing more anxious by the second. She had left without a word of where she was going and the longer I searched, the more desperate I became. I took a team of guards with me, scouring the pack and the outskirts of the pack’s border.I had to find her. I couldn’t shake the feeling that something wasn’t right, that something was terribly wrong. The feeling had been there for a while. I knew people wanted to kill her. A lot of them, and the longer she was out the more chances there are that someone that hated her saw her and hurt her. I couldn’t handle the sinking feeling at my stomach. A while after we had searched all the possible places, I decided to go out of the pack with a few guards. I knew it was a death sentence. I was putting my guards and myself in danger, but I needed to find her. I hated that she was the reason I had to do all of this. I hated that she put me in a spot like this, to fight and put myself in impossible situations

KAI I woke up with a heavy weight on my chest, the reality of Alina’s situation pressing down on me. She was in danger, and the whispers in the pack court were growing louder. I couldn’t shake the fear that her name would be dragged through the mud simply because of her association with me. As I prepared for the day, I felt a determination building within me—I needed to clear her name.The next morning, I entered the pack court, and the atmosphere felt charged. Conversations hushed as I walked in, eyes following my every move. I could feel the weight of their judgment. When I took my seat, the court was soon filled with a mix of members, including farmers and lords. The first to speak was a farmer who looked distraught.“My daughter is dead!” he cried, his voice breaking with emotion. “She was taken from us by the skin walkers. We’ve lost too many of our kin. We can’t keep living like this!”My heart ached for him. “I’m sorry for your loss. We will take measures to protect our pack f
