ELISE'S POV My breath caught in my throat at the sight of him. For a moment, neither of us said a word. We just stood there, staring at each other. The sight of him here made me feel relieved. He was okay. Now, here he was, in my room, looking at me with an intensity that made my heart race. I t
FERRIS' POV I felt content as I held Elise tightly in my arms. The world outside the room seemed distant, irrelevant. My focus was solely on her—her soft skin pressed against mine, the rhythm of her breathing, the way her curly hair tangled around us. We were both naked, tangled in the sheets wit
ELISE'S POV I’m running through the woods, barefoot. My legs ached with every step as the underbrush scratched my skin. My breaths came in ragged gasps, my heart pounding in my chest. The trees seemed endless. I stumbled over a fallen branch, catching myself just in time, but the exhaustion was cat
I found Sophie in her usual spot, tending to some flowers in the garden. When she saw me, her face lit up with a smile. “Elise! You look well today.” I returned her smile, though it felt strained. “Thanks, Sophie. Do you have a minute to talk?” “Of course, come in,” she said, gesturing for me to
FERRIS POV I sat at my desk, working on some documents that needed attention. The table was filled with papers detailing every rogue activity in the past few weeks. It felt endless—this cycle of dealing with threats, managing territory, and ensuring the safety of our pack. But my mind kept drifting
ELISE'S POV Ferris had changed and I had no idea why. He barely spoke to me unlike before. For days now, I had tried to speak with Ferris, to see him, to understand why he had suddenly started pulling away from me. But every time I got close, he seemed to vanish, busy with meetings, patrols, or t
ELISE'S POV I woke up early the next morning to the sunlight seeping through the curtains. It felt like a calm day ahead, but something was off. The palace was unusually lively, even for such an early hour. The sounds of footsteps, hurried whispers, and distant chatter reached my room as I dressed
FERRIS' POV I had never imagined the meeting would take such a turn. Alexandra’s voice echoed through the room. Every word she spoke felt like a slow-moving poison. Luna candidates… joining the hunt. It was absurd. I couldn’t believe what I was hearing. For a moment, I stared at her, unable to fu
ALEXANDRA'S POV The night was cold as I moved silently through the castle corridors. My mind raced with the thought of what I had to do. The plan was simple. I would go in and kill Elise. My heart pounded with anxiety. This had to end tonight. Elise had been a thorn in my side for far too long, a
ELISE'S POV The cell was... different this time After the attack I had, Ferris ensured that I was taken to a different cell. This one was much better. It wasn’t as dark or damp as my previous one, and the bedding was slightly softer. It also had less guards surrounding the place which made eve
GINA'S POV I stood by the back laundry. My heart still raced, though I tried to calm it. My moment with Ferris replayed in my mind—his words, his touch, the way his eyes seemed to see straight through me. For so long, I’d wanted to be close to him. I’d dreamed of it, schemed for it. He was one of
FERRIS' POV I sat in my study, deep in thought. My fingers tapped rhythmically on the desk. My mind churnintwistwd with the rumors I'd just heard. A war. Gina. Planning to avenge Jackson? If there was truth to this, it couldn’t be ignored. But Gina wasn’t the type to make things easy. No, this req
FERRIS' POV I leaned back in my chair in my office, staring at the table while my mind raced with a thousand thoughts. Every thought of mine went back to Elise. I envisioned the sight of her locked away in that cold miserable cell. She was pregnant, vulnerable, and despite my every effort to protec
ELISE'S POV I sat in the corner of my room with my knees drawn to my chest, trying to suppress the fear inside me. The encounter with Gina still played on a loop in my mind. I remembered how angry she was. Was she really not behindJackson's poisoning? Was she taunting me? Or was I truly losing my
ELISE'S POV The cell was uncomfortable. No amount of pacing or shifting on the wooden bench could make the suffocating air in here feel better. The walls felt like they were closing in on me. My fingers trembled as I placed a hand over my belly. "I promise," I whispered to the life growing within
FERRIS' POV Eden sat across from me in my study, resting his hands on the table. His newly acquired Gamma badge gleamed on his chest. Ever since Barley decided to act a fool, I replaced him with Eden as Gamma and the head of my security. We discussed who the perpetrator might be and why they want
ELISE'S POV The walls of the cell were cold as I leaned against it. I had been here before, but this time it felt heavier. More suffocating. Sitting on the hard bench, I leaned my head back against the rough stone and closed my eyes. I couldn't believe I was in here, in trouble again and it's all
