Alexander’s POV A triumphant glint lit up Emilia's eyes, and she reached into her pocket, producing a small recording device. With a flourish, she held it up, her tone confident. "I've managed to gather some information about the Rogues." The mention of the Rogues had everyone's attention, and my grandfather leaned forward with curiosity. "Well done, Emilia. You've certainly earned your reward." Emilia's smile turned sly as she looked directly at me. "Ah, about that reward. How about you finally fulfill your promise and use a hotel as compensation?" My lips thinned in reluctant agreement. The promise she was referring to had been a playful bet made weeks ago, involving a unique form of compensation. My gaze shifted to my grandfather, who chuckled heartily at Emilia's audacity. Sophia's laughter joined in, her amusement evident. "Well, Emilia," my grandfather chortled, "I must say, you certainly have a way of keeping things interesting." Emilia's smirk only grew, a glimmer of misc

Sophia’s POVAs Emilia concluded her presentation on the Rogues, a palpable seriousness settled over the hall. The gathered werewolf elders, including Alexander and his grandfather, absorbed the gravity of the situation. It was evident that the threat posed by the Rogues was substantial, and the implications for Shadow City were dire.As Alexander asked us to leave the hall, I exchanged a quick glance with Emilia. It was clear that the conversation that followed required a level of confidentiality that extended beyond our roles as witnesses. With a nod of understanding, Emilia and I made our way out, leaving the elders to their deliberations.Once outside, Emilia's demeanor shifted back to its usual carefree and playful state. She flashed me a mischievous smile and suggested, "Hey, since we're not needed in there, there's a bar not too far from here. They've got these incredibly attractive male models serving drinks. Care to join me for a drink or two?"I chuckled at her proposition,

Sophia’s POVMy heart raced as I stood there facing Tyler and Jake, my mind a whirlwind of emotions. The circumstances were far from ideal, and their presence in Shadow City only added to my anxiety. The werewolves here were not known for their warm welcome towards humans, and the thought of Alexander finding out about Tyler and Jake being here was enough to make my heart race."Why are you here?" I blurted out, unable to contain the worry in my voice.Tyler exchanged a quick glance with Jake before responding, his expression serious. "We were worried about you. You disappeared, and we couldn't reach you. We had to make sure you were safe."Jake chimed in with a playful grin, attempting to ease the tension. "Yeah, we thought maybe you found yourself a handsome boyfriend."I shot Jake a disapproving look, not appreciating his attempt at humor. "This is serious, Jake."Tyler's gaze met mine, his eyes filled with concern. "We're not here to cause trouble, but we need to know you're okay.

Sophia’s POVTyler's gaze held mine, his eyes unwavering. "We need to get you out of here. It's not safe for you, especially with the organization planning something against the werewolves."Jake nodded in agreement, his tone serious. "We need to make sure you're safe. And if things escalate, we have to ensure your child's safety too."My heart clenched at the thought of my child being in danger."I understand your concern," I admitted, my voice barely above a whisper. "But I can't just leave."Tyler's brows furrowed, his concern deepening. "Why not? Your safety is what matters."I met his gaze, my eyes unwavering. "Because I'm the Luna of the Shadow City now. I've come to know the werewolves here, and they're not what you think. They're kind, innocent—they've changed over the years."Jake shook his head, skepticism evident on his face. "How can you be so sure? They're werewolves, Sophia. It's in their nature to be dangerous."I took a step closer to them, my voice firm. "It's also in

Tyler's POVEmilia's playful smile only grew as she continued to tease us. "You two always did have a flair for dramatic entrances."I was about to respond when Emilia's tone shifted, her eyes narrowing as she regarded us more seriously. "But you know, secrets have a way of catching up to you."My heart pounded in my chest as the atmosphere grew tense. Emilia's words held a weight I couldn't quite decipher. Before I could respond, she surprised us both by revealing a startling truth."You're not the only ones with secrets," Emilia confessed, her voice low and deliberate. "I know who you are."Jake and I exchanged a wary glance. How much did she truly know? And how could we trust her with our own secrets?Emilia's playful facade dropped as she met my gaze head-on. "You're werewolf hunters, aren't you?"The truth hung in the air, heavy and undeniable. Our cover had been blown, and Emilia held the knowledge that could put us in grave danger. As I looked into her eyes, I couldn't shake th

Sophia’s POVBlinking my eyes open, I groggily registered my surroundings. The opulent room I found myself in was far removed from the gritty shadows of the city I had grown accustomed to. Confusion coursed through me as I attempted to sit up, only to hear a voice that sent my heart racing."You're awake," the voice said, a touch of amusement dancing within the words. I turned my head towards the source, and there he was—Jake. Despite the unfamiliarity of the situation, a wave of relief washed over me. Jake's presence was like an anchor, a link to something known amidst the sea of uncertainty.I let out a shaky exhale, memories of being incapacitated by Jake before succumbing to unconsciousness resurfacing. My cheeks heated as I realized the extent of the chaos that had unfolded. Tyler and Jake had spirited me away from the shadow city, upending my reality in the process."Where am I?" I asked, my voice betraying a mix of curiosity and annoyance. My gaze locked onto Jake, who, in true

Alexander’s POVMy world had been torn apart, unraveling like threads slipping through my fingers. The absence of Sophia was a void that gnawed at my insides, an ache that refused to be ignored. Anger roared within me, a fiery tempest that threatened to consume everything in its path. My voice was a command, an eruption of pent-up frustration that reverberated through the shadow city."Lock down the city," I ordered, my words laced with an intensity that mirrored the storm within. "No one gets in or out until we find her."The chaos that ensued was a reflection of my own turmoil. The city, once a bastion of order, had descended into anarchy as my orders were carried out. I paced, my mind racing, my heart pounding, as I tried to make sense of it all. Sophia had vanished, stolen away from me, and the fury of that loss was a fire that consumed reason."Cousin, I'm sorry about that."Emilia's presence was a flicker in the corner of my vision, her casual demeanor a sharp contrast to the tu

Alexander’s POVThe name hung between us, an enigma that had haunted our world for far too long. The Rogues—their motives, their actions—they were a puzzle we had yet to unravel. But in this moment of chaos, their presence felt more ominous than ever."We can't let them tear us apart," I said, my resolve hardening. "Inform my grandfather, the elders—all of them. Strengthen the barriers that protect the shadow city. We won't let them infiltrate our world again."Ethan nodded, his expression grim. "I'll make the preparations."The garden held a sense of tranquility, a sanctuary untouched by the chaos that had gripped my world.
