Her spirit was bruised, her body shattered. However, despite the pain she persisted.

She could hear the slow deliberate echo of footsteps. She didn't even flinch.

Pleading with them will yield nothing positive.

The result was the same: whether the warriors were there to drag her to her execution or the guards were there to torture her, it would definitely lead to death unless Ravena and the warriors she came with strikes fast.

While she laid on the cold floor, a pair of feet in boots stood close to her. She quickly shut her eyes tight, trembling slightly.

“Traitor,” a voice bellowed.

Her arm was grabbed by a rough hand which pulled her off the ground.

Her legs almost buckled under her as she was pulled to her feet, pain exploding through her body.

She let out a sharp gasp, but she suppressed the pain to cry, not wanting to satisfy them.

With the little ounce of strength left in her, she struggled against the man's hold but he held her tight.

Writhing on the cold floor, he walked

    The morning sun had begun to rise. As they ran through the tunnel, arrows wheezed past themThe lethal arrows were coming directly at her but she hardly noticed it before Ravena's blade caught it and knocked it away with a loud clang. Ravena's steady voice broke through the chaos. “ Take Luna Selene out while I hold them off!”Selene's feeble protests could hardly be heard as he lifted her over his shoulder. He tightened his hold and started to run. With Ravenas sword flashing as she repelled their relentless assailants the tunnel behind him shook with the intensity of the conflict. A dim gleam of daylight filtered through the gaps as the exit loomed ahead. Selene was breathing hard and Ethan could feel it against him. Her strength was rapidly going down. And then….an arrow sped by his ear and sank into a nearby rock. One of the warriors cried out, “They’re right behind us!”Ethan continued to run. He pushed through the exit and moved forward. Ethan was able to bring Selene out w

    With his golden eyes fixed on the figures vanishing into the distance, Rylan stood at the riverbank breathing hard. Selene and Ethan were carried away from his grasp by the rushing waters. His claws dug into his palms as his hands clenched into fists. The injury Selene had caused on his arm was already healing, the pain subsiding as his werewolf blood did its thing. However, the anger and humiliation of being outmatched and outwitted were more intense than any injury.He'd been stabbed by her. She disobeyed him. She was now slipping away. No!She wouldn't go very far. He would look for her. He'd pull her back. And she would be sorry she ever believed she could get away from him!Rylan's body stiffened. His ears twitched when he heard a slight sound coming up closer.His senses were on high alert and he swirled to see what or who it was. The air was mixed with the blood. Ravena. She was standing erect, her sword gleaming in the low light. Despite her wounds and the blood stre

    As the current dragged them viciously downstream, the river roared around them gulping their bodies. Breathing heavily as the waves smashed into her face. Selene struggled to keep her head above the water. Despite the cold seeping into her bones she continued to move because of the fear burning in her chest. She resisted giving in to the water. Considering all she had survived, no. Ethan swam forward, his strong strokes effortlessly slicing through the water. Over the roar of the river, he yelled. “ Keep up!” All that mattered was survival. In that dark, frigid prison, she had believed she would perish. Ravena then arrived though. Destinies were cruelly twisted by life. She will have to wait to find out why Ravena, of all people,, would risk everything to save her. Who would have thought that the same woman who attacked her pack would do this? She concentrated on staying afloat as the river pull lessened. She kicked herself one last time in desperation and moved forward.Eth

    Her chest was the precise target of the arrow. She was unable to run or move as she desired. Her body resisted orders. Ethan was fighting for his life out of the corner of her eye. He said, “ Just let the lady go.” But blood stained his mouth a deep red as it ran down his lips. “In her place, you can take… me.”With the arrow still pointed at Selene the hunter remained silent.She seemed to be his main target rather than Ethan. Selene's eyes darted around in terror as her tear-stained face was smeared with dirt. The pounding of her heart was like a school drum. And her bones arched so badly that they seemed like they would break out of their joints. Before her, the hunter maintained a firm stance and a steady grip on the bow. At the first sign of trouble, he was prepared to release the arrow. Selene hardly dared to blink. Then the air suddenly changed place. Suddenly, a howling wind roared like a raging storm. With their branches flailing wildly and their leaves swirling in

    He emerged from the shadows as a jarring sound tore through his subconscious. Rylan's eyes popped open. The noises were then detected. The sound of wolves growling. The crunch of bone was sickening. The splatter of blood hitting the ground wet. A terrible fight.When his vision cleared he saw something that made his stomach turn. Wolves engaged in vicious combat, their claws tearing through fur and their fangs digging into flesh.His tongue was coated like iron by the overpowering smell of blood.He saw her there in the midst of the chaos. Ravena. Her wolf form moved like liquid death as she battled like a demon, tearing through opponents with terrifying ease. The few who dared to resist were overwhelmed as her warriors charged ahead and pushed through the ranks. Nightfang was losing. Rylan's frustration was brewing as he clenched his jaw.

    She was awakened by pain before her eyes. The dull throb swept through her skull like wildfire pounding behind her eyes. Slowly and heavily Selene's eyelids fluttered. When she finally opened her eyes the world swam around her and she could not identify the places on her body that hurt. She gasped. Her arms were bound to a thick wooden pole and painfully twisted behind her. She tugged at the bindings as panic flared in her chest but they held tight and felt rough against her skin.Where is she? Her memories were a haze with shadows and images darting through her head.Then she remembered what happened.The wind. The portal. Elder Vulcan. Ethan. She clenched her heart. Fear gripped her like a vice and she wondered if Ethan was still alive. Twisting and struggling, she attempted to move once more but the ropes only made their way deeper into her flesh. She heard voices.There was the crunch of footsteps on the ground. People started to emerge from the pack ground corners. Man

    His beta, Sab questioned cautiously, eyes darting through the foggy woods. “ Are you sure this is the right place?” He held his hand close to his blade. It doesn't feel right. Kieran took a moment to respond. Something darker shone beneath the gleam of frustration in his emerald green eyes. Anxiety. “I was instructed to come here,” he finally said in a firm voice. Sab scowled. “You can't trust Elder Vulcan. Nobody is more aware of that than you are.”Kieran halted his pacing and looked at his beta. He gave me his word. He said he would release my mother if I did my part. That's the only reason I'm here.” Sab did not seem persuaded. “It has been hours of waiting.” “I understand,” Kieran yelled. Tension broke in his voice. Something moved in the shadows and they stiffened, regaining themselves.Both men immediately whirled around their instincts as swords were drawn out. “Easy boys,” a smug-sounding voice said.

    The night air blew by.It wasn't just the wind it was the death, the grief and the pain. That hung in the air.As silence descended upon the land the moon gazed down like a chilly watchful eye.Ravena lay shattered in a cage that had been forgotten far away from the sound of campfires and pack wolves laughter.The weight of time made the old cottage groan. Like the veins of a dying body, cracks ran along the stone walls. Something once powerful was trapped by the sturdy door made of rusted iron bars. Ravena. once dreaded. Once strong, writhed in pain. Just a shadow of herself now.Thick cold chains were buried in her neck and limbs as her wolf form lay curled on the wet floor. She was breathing weakly in shaky whispers. The ground beneath her was covered in blood which smelled bad and was blackened.She had patches of matted fur that was falling out. Rot had started to appear. The pain never stopped stinging her flesh like fire ants. Next came a fresh wave, a searing burn that tor

    A pale glow was cast over the forest where shadows whispered among the trees by the moon which hung low like a silent sentinel.In his black warrior uniform with the Ridgewood crest faintly glinting on his chest, Jarred stood motionless in the center of a small clearing.As though attempting to calm the storm building inside of him. His hands were clasped behind his back with his fingers interlocked. Despite the cool night air, tension hung over. In the distance, a lone owl called out as leaves rustled in the wind. Jarred remained motionless. His eyes were narrowed and fixed on the horizon and his jaw was clenched. Waiting impatiently, he wondered how long it would take him to arrive.Time is a luxury he doesn't have.And then, something hit his nostrils. A much familiar scent. And his tense shoulders relaxed a bit.Footsteps echoed. Moving slowly and methodically coming up behind him. He did not turn. A low, respectful voice called, “ Master. As directed, I have the antidote.”

    As the masked man and the wolves surrounded them, Fea's heart pounded frantically in her chest echoing louder with each beat.Although the air was cool, fear burned through her skin. Daemon stood erect before Fea, his shoulders squared. With a steady yet steely tone, he said, “ You have the wrong information. The antidote is not in our possession.”As though amused, the man in the mask cocked his head slightly. Then he suddenly sprang forward, snatched Fea, and pulled her in close. A cold, sharp, and gleaming dagger was pressed against her throat. Her breath caught as she froze in fear and gasped. Daemon's eyes widened. “Release her!”The man snarled. “ Then don't test me. If you lie to me again, I will cut her throat open. “Give me the antidote now!”Fea's body shook under his hold. She began to sob as she squirmed under his hold. “Spare us, please. Do not harm us.”Her fingers were fumbling as she slowly moved her hand to the folds of her cloak. She then took a tiny glass vial

    The road was covered in long shadows as the sun had sunk behind the hills. After the market that day, Fea and Daemon sat at the back of their cart and blended in with a group of farmers and traders heading out of the Whitefur Pack. With her cloak covered in dust from the road, Fea covered her hair with a brown scarf. With his eyes darting from guard to guard, Daemon had lowered his hood. As the horses dragged them forward with slow resolve, their hooves clopping against the stone-paved path, their cart creaked softly.The closer they got to the gate the faster Fea's heart beat. The guards hardly gave them a look. To keep moving, one waved lazily at the traders.With a slight moan, the heavy wooden gates opened. The gate was rolled open.Freedom.Fea, however, couldn't resist looking behind her. She froze. Her gaze fell on a swarm of warriors leaving the guesthouse where she and Daemon had been staying. One of them appeared enraged, his voice resonating through the walls as th

    Ashton's face was etched in deep worry. He kept pacing outside back and forth like an angry lion.It was night already and yet no word from them. Each time he heard a sound, he'd look up in the direction, expecting to see Fea and Daemon, but he saw nothing.Another sound came and he stopped pacing again. This time, it was a squirrel that ran past with speed. His shoulder slouched in disappointment.His arms were crossed then he uncrossed them and rubbed his face.He took three steps forward. And turned back.His gaze drew in an anxious glint. In the hopes of seeing Fea and Daemon emerge from the forest carrying the antidote, his gaze kept to the trees. But each time his hope rose it sank once more.And then he heard footsteps. He stopped. His heart leaped to his throat. He swiftly spun around looking at the direction of the sound. However, he saw neither Fea nor Daemon. Swords slung over their backs, two of the pack's warriors were on their way to their night watch.With their boo

    Daemon held Fea's wrist. “We need to run!” he whispered. “We can't let them capture us. Feas' breath came faster as she yanked his hand away. “No Daemon! That's not a good idea.”His eyes grew wide with a sense of urgency. “They’ll succeed at any moment. What do you suggest?A loud bang reverberated from the door breaking the stillness. Already the guards were attempting to pry it open.Fea's gaze shot to the window. Running to it she threw back the curtains and peered down. As she measured the distance, the wind slapped her face. The ground was too far from the window. Anyone who dared to attempt to jump it would die. Peering over her shoulder Daemon joined her. “ We could leap together. Perhaps land on that shed roof. It's just the right angle.” Fea gave a firm shake of her head. “Too dangerous. Neither you nor I will make that leap. If not, our necks will break.”Daemon turned to her and said, “ Then what Fea?” With a hint of panic in his voice. BANG! The door rattled sudde

    Fea's body moved in a strangely still manner but her mind was racing.She was unable to panic. The guard approached her and gave her a suspicious look.He narrowed his eyes. “ You shouldn't be here. What is your name?”She turned slowly holding the laundry basket closer to her chest like a doe in fear. “ I… I was instructed to bring linens to the Alpha's chamber,” she stuttered, her voice shaking.The guard raised an eyebrow. “By who?”Fea twitched her fingers. As her weight shifted unevenly on her feet.She staggered a little and the basket slipped out of her hands. With eyes that flickered uneasily, the guard stepped forward and asked, “ What's wrong with you?”She swayed and muttered, “ I…..Her face was pale and stunned. “I don't feel okay. My…my head it's ach …Suddenly, she crumpled, her body going limp as she thumped softly to the floor. Her head lolled sideways and her arms flopped loosely.She slowed her breathing, keeping it steady but shallow, and her eyes fluttered shut,

    She could see the dim, quiet hallway in front of her, with the flickering light creating thin streaks of shadow on the walls. Fea took deliberate, slow steps, looking at doors and walls to find the route she had committed to memory from the building plan.Like any other servant, she placed the laundry basket on her hip. Yet her heartbeat thundered beneath her ribs and her mind was clear and focused. Every turn she made and each step she took, took her one step closer to the Alpha's room. Nearer to the antidote. Ethan's poisonous condition was getting worse. Three maids brushed past her.One of them gave her a quick indifferent glance. She shuffled past them with her head down pretending to be a maid on a long shift exhausted.Her breath caught in her throat as she turned left and the guards were no longer visible.Standing tall and proud at the end of the hallway, was the Alpha's chamber door. Which was carved from thick dark wood and featured an intricate silver crest of the Wh

    With cautious steps, Fea navigated the smooth corridors of the White Fur Packhouse.Her eyes were downcast, and her shoulders were slightly hunched to give the impression that she was smaller.Blend in, move like one of them, and avoid drawing attention to yourself. That was the aim.The basic outfit of the maid's uniform consisted of a brown dress, an apron, and a cloth cap to conceal her hair. Although, she had the same appearance as the others. Her mind was more active than anyone else's. She committed to memorizing every door, stairway, and corridor she went past.Each moment was significant. The Packhouse was a soaring estate with polished wooden beams and thick stone.Outside, most of the servants held mop sticks and buckets. Hurting off to complete their chores.It was the perfect setting to slip in without being noticed by anyone.The pack house was silent and vigilant, clinging to the walls like dust. After passing two guards, Fea went into a more peaceful hallway close to

    The guard moved closer and Daemon felt his heart pounding in his chest.The air became tense and brittle like glass that had been cracked. Any mistake or suspicion would cause everything they had planned to fall apart like dried leaves on fire.The young man, breathing heavily and with bloodied lips, huddled next to Daemon. His eyes were wide with fear as he stared at Daemon holding on to hope like a man who is drowning.Others in the line moved uncomfortably around them, glancing between Daemon and the guard. Their expressions were sharp and silent with fear.Daemon drew his fingers closer to the dagger hilt, which was concealed beneath his tunic. The thought of pulling steel and cutting through the guard was alluring for a split second.Rather his hand slipped into the folds of his clothes away from the weapon. He pulled out a little leather pouch that was heavy but a little worn. He threw it at the guard with a well-practiced flick. Daemon's voice was smooth and calm as he said,
