MattAfter Tony announced that exile was the other option, the whole room went silent. Our nanny went pale. “Where’s the luna?” Someone asked. “Lucy is off taking classes and getting treatment,” Tony said. “In the meantime, I’m making it a priority to clean up the pack and figure out how the hell she was taken in the first place.”His heart didn’t skip when he lied, but I could see that no one really believed him. There were a few people who seemed a little disgruntled as if they knew he was lying. “Alpha, do you want your report now?” Our beta said. His chin was lifted and his heart was calm. “Yes,” Tony said. “Since we’re on the topic.”“They say that she’s doing well. The poison is mostly out of her system, but they want to keep her a bit longer for observation… They still don’t know what kind of poison it was.”Tony nodded. Our nanny’s shoulders seemed to relax. I felt her relief and the belief begin to build through the whole pack. It seems that it’s still true: if you can g

MattWe walked downstairs and opened the door. There was a group of official-looking people accompanied with a tall, willowy woman who smelled like chamomile and wore a lot of yellow. There were a bunch of flowers in her hair. She looked more like a nymph from human mythology than a witch. She looked around with wide eyes as her two companions looked at us. “We’re here on behalf of the Council and the Inter-Species Liaison.” Each of them extended a thick envelope toward us. “You’re being charged with several criminal charges, including human trafficking and deadly assault, on the human and the supernatural side. We’re here to bolster your human and supernatural representation against the organization pressing charges against you.”I grimaced. “What human organization?” Tony asked. “Liberation Front.”I had never heard of them. I took the envelope offered to me. His eyes narrowed. “And the supernatural charges?”“Several counts of assault and related human trafficking charges.”I

LucyDavid offered me the last pastry as he finished sipping his coffee. Even though I ate it, my stomach grumbled. He chuckled. “Hungry?”My face heated. “I’m okay.”He said nothing for a moment before cupping my face and turning me gently to meet his gaze. His eyes narrowed a bit as he seemed to stare right into me. I felt my heart speeding up as I looked up at him.“You know… it’s okay to say that you need things,” David said gently. His gaze softened. “It’s perfectly okay to ask for them too.”I swallowed. My eyes burned as he smiled gently and tapped my chin. “I was going to get something eat. You’re welcome to join me, if you want, or I can walk you back to the campus. Whichever would make you happy.”My heart trembled and while I was still shaken by the attack. My body still hurt; I didn’t want to head back just yet. David was… familiar in a way that I hadn’t realized that I needed. “Dinner… sounds great.”His eyes brightened. “How do you feel about pizza?”I frowned and til

LucyI had no idea what David meant when he said a bit of everything, but after the fourth pizza was brought to our table, I really wished I had just chosen something to try. “David… isn’t this a bit too much?” I asked. He grinned. “Wait until the drink comes.”I frowned and went still before looking down the way toward where the woman was coming back with a giant glass bowl filled with something that seemed to bubble and spew clouds of mist. She set it on the table with a beaming smile before placing a set of metal straws and a set of spoons that look like broomsticks on the table. “You two enjoy!”“How… are we supposed to eat all of this?” I asked looking at him. “One bite at a time.”I stuck my tongue out at him and he laughed before gabbing one of the serving utensils. “Which one would like to try first? A classic? Something more daring?”“Classic, I guess.” He served me a giant slice of pizza covered in round red disks before serving himself. The slice took up most of the pla

Lucy“But---”He slipped into an alleyway, and I saw a flash of light. Then, I heard nothing else. The car glided past the alleyway, and it was empty. He must have used his portal to leave. I flopped back in my seat and looked down at the bag. I couldn’t stop smiling though. I felt warm. When we reached the building, I headed up to my room. Tina popped out of her door with a sly grin. “I was told you were out with a delicious looking young man! Spill!”My face heated. “It wasn’t like that. He’s a friend of mine from the orphanage…”“You’re awfully late getting back from just meeting with a friend,” she said before slipping back inside. “Though I suppose I’ll let you---Is that from Cursed Slices?”“Yes.”Tina’s eyes twinkled with knowing. “I’ll leave you alone… for now. Tell me how the cake is, hm?”

LucyEveryone else seemed excited, but I still didn’t know what that was. “Is it… going to hurt?”He shook his head. “It’s a place filled with games, fun, and prizes. What do you say?”He looked over my head. “Lucy’s never been to an arcade.”One of the girls squealed. “Then, we definitely have to go!”He smiled and wiggled his eyebrows. “It’s not that far of a bus ride away… Or we could drive if you’re okay with that?”I looked back at everyone else and nodded. “Let’s go, then.”He punched the air as everyone clapped and we headed out. We walked through a barrier to a nearby bus station. Soon, we were on the bus, then transferring onto a train. Listening to everyone talk about their favorite games made me smile. It was hard not to smile with how excited they all looked. I thought back to when I heard about people go

LucyDavid nodded. “One of them is a member of his pack. The other is a rogue.”He shook his head. “Sorry, that it turned into this, but did you at least enjoy the part before the fight?”I smiled at him. “It’s the best… and maybe if we play a few more rounds, we’ll forget all about it.”He grinned back. “Deal.”The weekend passed in a blur. We got back so late on Friday night that I didn’t even have a chance to read anyone’s messages. Tina and Stacey teased me most of the morning on Saturday, but they let me do my homework in peace. By the time Monday came. The drama of the fight seemed like it happened so long ago. I had to focus on my first physical training class, and it was starting to make me think that there was no way I was going to make it as an officer.“Keep going! You’ve still got thirty seconds.”I could barely breat

MattI sat on the couch in my room, staring blankly at my phone. If I saw another legal document or heard another charge, I was going to scream. My wound had closed, but it still ached. My heart was beating steadily, but my head was a mess. The guilt and desperation I wanted to feel about Lucy wasn’t there. I kept thinking it was because we didn’t have a bond, but it felt like a lie the more I thought about it. I had to face it. We had to face it. Lucy didn’t leave because she didn’t feel safe. She left because she didn’t want to be here because she wasn’t our mate. I got to my feet, pacing back and forth. My thoughts were turning and turning. The weight of knowing that, feeling that, and being unable to tell Tony that felt like it was crushing me. We had been looking for Lucy and lying to the pack for too long, but we didn’t have a clue. The lawyers were here every day to talk about the case, but there still was

LucyThe morning sun, a mischievous wink through the blinds, painted golden stripes across our bed. I snuggled deeper into the warmth of David's embrace, the rhythmic rise and fall of his chest a soothing lullaby. He slipped his hand across my lower back. The warmth of his bare skin against mine set a spark of pleasure through me. He rumbled low and content into my hair. “Wake up,” David rumbled. He kissed my head and twined a curl around his finger. “We have things to do.”“You shouldn’t have kept me up all night.”He chuckled. “You didn’t say that last night.”I nudged him. He dipped his head to nip my lips. “You know, if it’s too much, you can always tell me to slow down.”He’d been saying that for five years now, and I never found a reason to tell him to. He knew that. His eyes flickered between colors. I nipped his lower lip. “Give me a reason.”He smirked and rolled me onto my back. “To slow down or…”“To get up,” I said as he kissed

LucyI sat on the cold stone, watching her, but she didn’t move another muscle. I didn’t know how long it had been, but it didn’t matter. The spectral glow around her was starting to dim, and my mind was just too stressed to do too much thinking. The light of the ritual, the spell I’d used, the blood on my hands all flashed through my mind, and part of me wondered if it was all just a dream. I looked down at the stained and ruined gown. The armor was as pristine as ever, but most of the embroidered roses were torn or stained. This dress would never be white again, let alone whole. I flicked a piece of the long, gossamer fabric and shook my head. I really liked this dress.“Lucy!”I turned my head toward the sound of David’s voice, wrung out and relieved to hear him. He was rushing through the air towards me. He dropped down a few feet from me, looking so worried I could cry.I smiled at him as he dropped to his knees beside me and threw his arms around me,

LucyI sailed through the air, landing with a jarring thud within the ritual circle. With a trembling hand, I pushed myself up, my senses on high alert. A figure, cloaked in darkness, appeared in front of me. My blood ran cold. Selene."Well, well, Lucy," her voice, honeyed yet laced with venom, slithered into the darkness. "Thank you ever so much for making this easy at last.”I grit my teeth. I wouldn't go down without a fight. Straightening my shoulders, I met her gaze, my voice shaking but resolute. "You underestimate me.” “No, Lucy,” her voice dropped, and a cruel smile twisted her lips. "You underestimate me.” The chanting grew louder around me. I lunged for the necklace, my fingers grazing its cold surface before Selene snatched it away, a triumphant gleam in her eyes. But that touch, fleeting as it was, ignited something. I felt her pushing at my mind. I felt her shoving me back until I could see the forest from before, and we were fighting in a ci

MattMy vision pulsed and flickered, a strobe light of pain blurring the edges of reality. Tony rained blows down on me, slashing with claws. Each hit chipped away at my resolve and my control, leaving behind a raw desperation to end this quickly. My armor protected me from most of the damage, but still. He was always the stronger of the two of us. I thought it was just because he was the older of the two of us, but this was different. I thought for sure he was going to bite off my head. Then, a flash of golden light arced through the air, and a spear lanced past my shoulder, catching Tony square in the chest. I turned back to see Ginevra hovering in the air. Her golden dress glowed as she passed me with a glowing winge spreading from her back. What the absolute fuck?Tony staggered, falling to the ground, and Dad darted forward, encasing Tony in a shimmering web of light. The wave turned to chains. He thrashed and howled, straining against the magical bonds, but t

LucyPeter's breath hitched, rasping, and shallow, then deepened into a cough that wracked his battered body. His eyelids fluttered, eyelids so pale they were almost luminous in the dim torchlight. He struggled to get up, leaning on his Spear and on Michelle. The light pulsing through the Spear rippled over his skin. He let out a soft sigh and stumbled a little. “Peter?”“I... It’s gone.”“What?” Michelle gasped as his hair started to change, losing the gray color and growing dark. His face turned younger until I was sure that he was all of twenty-something. He grew a bit taller, too, bigger until his shirt strained against his chest and his buttons popped. He flushed. “Well… that’s not…” He cleared his throat as Michelle smiled up at him. “So this is what you looked like in your youth?”He scoffed. “I’m much younger than you think.”He grunted, pressing a hand to his side. “Wish the Spear would heal the wound, though.”I winced. “Sorry… it’s a

PeterMy feet pounded a frantic rhythm against the uneven earth, branches whipping at my face, thorns tearing at my clothes. How long had I been running? How much further did I have to go? I didn’t know, and it didn’t matter so long as I got there. My lungs burned, legs screaming in protest, but still I ran. The trail of blood behind me and the patchwork of wounds across my body, chunks of missing and regrowing flesh, weren’t my concern right now. The creature—the wolf was after me, and unlike before, it didn’t seem willing to back off or slow down. It was going to kill me, and what happened after that was anyone’s guess. Behind me, the guttural snarl of the wolf echoed through the trees. Too close to be comfortable. Too close to make sense. This was too much like that dream, but worse. So much worse. The sky was a kaleidoscope of images I could barely make out. They flashed in the sky and in my vision, making it hard to see. I saw Lucy. I saw Michelle. The long

LucyAdrenaline surging, I grabbed Michelle and pulled her after me deeper into the inky depths of the tunnel.“Quick!”She panted. “What’s going on? Peter—”“He’s possessed,” I said. “Just keep running for now!”I saw my Allison up ahead, leading me down another tunnel. Behind us, I heard Peter's guttural snarls, the rhythmic thud of his feet echoed eerily in the confined space. We had to lose him and the other one quickly, but we didn’t seem to be putting enough distance between us. Panic coiled in my gut, urging me to run faster and push my body beyond its limits. Michelle kept up relatively well. We twisted and turned, navigating the treacherous path by torchlight and the spectral murmurs of White Moon's fallen. But the passage seemed to twist back on itself. When we were back at the forked path, the faint light that had been illuminating the tunnel went out, plunging us into darkness.Michelle shuddered. She drew closer to me and tightened her grip on m

LucyI was back in that house with that couple that adopted me. I felt the floorboards creaking as I went downstairs. I saw the men in suits. I shrieked, turning. Not again. I couldn’t be back here. Where was David? How had I gotten back here? I looked down. I wasn’t… wearing the dress or the armor. I had no daggers. My hair was just as uncombed and dry as it had been then. When I looked in the mirror, the skinny young woman who had barely had anything more than ramen and school lunch stared back at me. My stomach lurched. The door opened, and I turned to run, knowing what was about to happen. I dug my heels in as dark shadows pulled me towards the door. I felt myself being lifted onto someone’s shoulders. I fought and kicked, but all my training and all my strength were gone. I saw the calendar on the wall, but the date was different. It wasn’t my birthday. It was the day of the Crescent Moon Festival. I screamed, grabbing anything I could manage. Then, Sele

DavidOren's head arced through the firelit air, landed, and rolled. His body dropped to the ground, still spurting blood. Then, all hell broke loose.The shimmering barrier around the Ball faltered, rippling like a pond, before collapsing entirely. Hunters poured into the arena, their snarls blending with everyone's shocked gasps. “Defensive measures, now!” I yelled, my voice carrying over the sound of the attack. A group of dragon shifters took to the sky as my blade clashed with the first hunter. How had they gotten through the barrier? I saw a flicker of a ghost and growled. “Selene!” I shoved the hunter back, slicing through him before sending out a shockwave of air. She’d been behind this, and maybe she’d been planning this for years, using the werewolf virus to spy on the preparations. It would make sense to try and get rid of me. I was the direct descendant of Fenris. More than that, it was their movements. Each and every one of them moved e
