My stomach churns. "But… who? The only person I can think of is dead." Miss Hazel’s eyes darken, and her voice lowers. "It's mistress Cruz, Nicole’s grandmother." Hannah nearly chokes on her tea. "What?" "She believes you are responsible for her granddaughter's death," Miss Hazel continues, he
JASON. (Back at the mansion) “Who the fuck is Stacy going out on a date with?” Anger flares instantly, hot and sharp, making my wolf pace restlessly beneath my skin, growling at the mere thought of her with another man within the pack. Jealousy claws at me, images of her laughing, smiling—t
I stop pacing, turning to face her. “Do you think I still stand a chance with her even if I can't remember?” Mom smiles faintly, a glimmer of hope in her eyes. “If anyone can fix this, it’s you. But you’ll have to fight for her, Jason. Really fight. And this time, don’t let anything—magic or memor
JASON. An hour later…. I sit in my SUV, gripping the steering wheel harder than I need to. My heart hasn’t stopped pounding since Stacy called earlier. I can’t believe she actually agreed to this. After the way she brushed me off this morning, I thought I’d blown any chance I had. The front do
We eat, the conversation staying light at first. We talk about Liam—his latest drawings, and how good he is at football because that's all I can remember. Stacy’s face lights up when she talks about him, and I catch myself smiling more than I have in days. But as the plates empty, I decide to take
STACY. “Jason,” I call sharply, drawing his attention back to me. “Can we just… forget about whoever that is? Please?” The gentle rustle of leaves and the soft ripple of water do nothing to calm the storm inside me. I glance at Jason, who keeps glancing over his shoulder toward the figure that h
When we finally pull apart, I search his face, my heart racing. Did it work? Did the curse break? Maybe I should kiss him again just to make sure it worked. He looks at me, his brows furrowing slightly as if he’s trying to process something. “Wow… what was that for?” I let out a shaky l
STACY. SPLASH!!! A sudden splash of icy water jolts me awake, and I gasp, my body trembling from the shock. Where am I and how long have I been out? My vision blurs, but as I blink rapidly, the dim, cold reality of my surroundings sets in. The walls are made of damp stone, the air thick wit

Stacy sighs dramatically. “Men.” I grin, shaking my head. But deep down, I know how lucky we are. After everything, we made it. We fought our battles, we endured the worst, and we won. Now, we have everything we ever wanted... Love, family, and a future brighter than we ever imagined. And fo
HANNAH. An hour later, Laughter and music fill the air as guests drink, dance, and toast to our happiness. Alpha Jason and Stacy are still smirking from the earlier spectacle, but even they are caught up in the lighthearted atmosphere. Daniel never leaves my side. His hand stays firmly on my
Daniel stiffens. His entire body goes rigid, as his jaw tightens so hard I swear I hear his teeth grind. “What?” His voice is barely more than a growl. I nod, my grip on his hand tightening. “You heard me.” Fury flashes in his eyes, dark and dangerous. He doesn’t even hesitate before turning on h
HANNAH. I freeze in the doorway, my breath hitching as my brain struggles to catch up with the sight before me. Roxanne and Adrian. Together! Their bodies are tangled together with their hands greedy, and their lips locked in a desperate, forbidden kiss. Clothes are haphazardly disheveled, Roxann
I stare at the pile, then burst out laughing. “Were you two planning to open a pharmacy?” Daniel smirks. “Figured it was better to be thorough.” I shake my head, grabbing one of the tests and handing it to Stacy. “Alright, go pee on this.” Stacy glares at me like I just asked her to do something
HANNAH “You, get a doctor! Now!” Daniel’s voice booms through the wedding venue, commanding instant obedience from the nearest guard. But even as the order leaves his lips, I tighten my grip on his arm. “Baby, I am a doctor, remember?” His eyes flick to mine, realization dawning before he steps a
HANNAH. "Uh-uh, no, not today" Stacy says the moment her eyes land on Margaret. "Please, just hear me out," Margaret pleads, standing in a simple deep red dress suited for her age. She looks… hesitant, so unlike her usual self. Gone is the cold authority, and the condescending stare. Instead, he
HANNAH. (Hours later) Dinner is tense, the air thick with an unspoken rivalry that neither Roxanne nor I are willing to acknowledge outright. The dining room is dimly lit, with the scent of roasted chicken filling the air, but I can barely focus on the food. My attention is solely on Daniel and
