GINA’S POV

I woke up in Devyn’s room, expecting to find him asleep beside me, but he wasn’t there. Rising from the bed, I sat up, stretched, and noticed I was the only one in the room.

As my hand moved to my neck, surprise coursed through me when I felt the necklace lying on my neck—I was certain I had tossed it in the lake. The only explanation was that Devyn had gone back to get it.

I found that thoughtful and creepy at the same time.

Stepping off the bed, I walked up to the window and peered outside. Squinting against the morning sun as its rays hit my eyes, I observed the airy day, listening to birds chirping and the sounds of children playing nearby.

Looking around, I noticed Devyn’s car wasn’t in the area, which was surprising considering how early it was.

Walking away from the window, I looked around his room as an idea popped into my mind. Since he wasn’t here, and I wasn't sure I could get another chance like this, I decided to snoop around and see if I could find anything i

    The next day was filled with fun. While Liam and Wilona didn’t spend the night before, Praya did, and I appreciated the company. I never felt alone when she was there with me.I tried to convince her countless times to sleep in the room with me, but she refused and chose to sleep on the sofa in the living room. As I went downstairs for breakfast, Liam and Wilona were already there, enjoying the meal Lucia had prepared. We spent the entire day indoors, watching movies, playing games, and having a great time. It felt like spending a Friday night with your favorite friends from college.It was nighttime and we were trying to decide what movie to watch.“How about mean girls?” Wilona asked, and I felt a sudden pang in my chest.That was Kristen’s favorite movie. I felt bad that I hadn’t thought about her for a while, and now that I was reminded of her, my chest couldn’t stop hurting.My life had changed and I was moved to a completely different place, without my friends having an idea

    I jolted awake, gasping for air as beads of sweat trickled down my skin despite the cool night breeze. Just before waking, I had a dream— or perhaps a vision— the same one about the red wolf and me riding on its back.This time it felt different because, in the vision, I saw Praya screaming in pain, and the sound of her agonizing screams echoed in my mind, waking me up immediately. It had felt too real like she had screamed directly in my ear.Something at the back of my mind urged me to go downstairs and check on her. Slipping into my flip-flops, I hurried down the stairs, my heart beating rapidly in my chest. When I got to the living room, my heart dropped when there was no sign of her or anyone else in the room.There was one place to check, and I had a strong feeling I was going to find her there. Without hesitation, I swung the entrance door open, and the cold night breeze immediately sent shivers down my spine. Preparing for what lay ahead, I clutched my robe tightly and darted

    The red wolf in front of me wasn’t just a figment of my dreams, but a living presence in my reality. Seated upright on the ground, I watched the wolf approach me, gently nudging me with her wet snout. As I tried to stand up on my feet, the wolf lowered its large head offering support as I grasped unto it.As I steadied myself on my feet, my eyes locked onto the wolf’s gaze. Without an ounce of fear in me, I extended my hand and gently rested it on the crown of her head.As I rubbed her head, a satisfactory sound emanated from her as warm breath from her nostrils tickled my skin. Giggling, I shifted my hand to scratch behind her ears, reveling in the softness of her red fur that felt like velvet beneath my fingertips.“You’re beautiful Praya,” I whispered.‘Thank you for helping me.’Startled, I doubled back when Praya’s voice unexpectedly echoed in my mind. Wide-eyed and frantic, I stared at her in disbelief.Did she just speak in my mind?‘Yes I did,’ came her response in my head ye

Rising to my feet, I stuck close to Praya, who positioned herself ahead, assuming a defensive stance with her limbs bent forward, ready to charge.A vicious growl resonated within Praya, as she glared at the imposters.‘Can you tell who these wolves are’ I asked her through our mental connection.‘Jessica and Gerald,’ she answered and I felt a sudden shock course through me.‘Why are they here?’I was met with silence at first, then suddenly Praya’s growls intensified and her chilling alarmed voice rang through my head.‘They’re here to kill you!’A chill ran down my spine, leaving me frozen in shock as Praya’s words echoed through my mind. Without warning, the smaller wolf, which I assumed to be Jessica, leaped in front of us, colliding with Praya. The scene unfolded into a battle of biting and clawing as they fought in front of me. Jessica was sl

    As Praya stood by my side, her gaze shifted to my wound, concern shimmering in her eyes. She gently touched it with her snout, and I reassured her by rubbing her temple."I'm fine, don't worry about me."Her attention then turned to Jessica, who limped toward us. Observing her injured leg, a sense of pride welled within me, knowing that Praya had landed a blow on her.Gerald got back on his legs and approached us. Praya made sure to position herself in front of me, guarding me from both wolves. Glancing behind, I noticed the lake directly at my back.‘Get back Praya,’ Gerald’s voice echoed In my mind, ‘Or I will kill you myself.’‘I’m done listening to you traitors. I will protect her from you,’ Praya growled back at him.‘Too bad, I wonder what I’ll tell Mother,’ he chuckled darkly, sending shivers down my spine. In an instant, Gerald charged towards us from the front, while Jessica approached from the side. Two of them were getting closer, ready to attack us at once. Before I could

    DEVYN’S POVGina’s life was in danger. I could feel it coursing through my blood to my very bones. Wherever she was, still had her necklace on. Regret gnawed on me; I should have never left her. The business was merely an excuse, a flimsy reason to distance myself from me. There were emotions bottled within me that I could not understand, and whenever I was with her, those emotions became a storm inside me. I thought keeping my distance from her would’ve eased the turmoil, but it only made it worse. I could never stop thinking about her while I was gone.

    When we arrived at the house, Lucia greeted us at the door, wearing a startled expression on her face when she saw Gina’s state.“What can I do to help?” she asked, her tone etched with worry.“Get the doctor,” I said to her as I raced up the stairs. During the walk back, Gina passed out in my arms due to the pain coursing through her body.When I got to the room, I placed her gently on my bed and quickly dressed myself. Standing by her side, burning anger surged through me when my gaze fixated on her wounds. I would’ve kept her attacker alive and made him suffer for what he did to her, but in the heat of my rage and overcome by bloodlust, I lacked the patience and sanity to spare a life.A knock on the door echoed through the room before the door swung open. Liam and Wilona walked in, accompanied by the pack’s doctor. He was a stern man, sporting a full head of gray hair, and his movements were hindered by a bad leg.“She’s badly injured,” he said as I watched him bring out a pair o

    Six years later.As I open the fridge to get my orange juice, my heart almost leaps out of my chest as Conri jumps out of the fridge. “Boo!”“Oh my goddess! How the hell did you even get in there?” I shriek as I place a hand on my racing heart to calm it down.”Language,” Conri yells, giggling like he just did the funniest shit in the world. He tries to run but I grab his cheek and pinch as I scold him.“Ow! Dad! Mom is hurting me,” he screams as he manages to free himself out of my grasp and run to the living room. Feeling frustration and a headache coming in, I rub my temple as I exit the kitchen, completely forgetting my orange juice. When my gaze falls on Devyn and Praya, I feel warmth creep into my chest. He lifts his gaze and stares at me with admiration and love in his icy blue eyes. As I walk closer to him, I giggle when I see what Praya did to him. He has a large pink bow in his hair, and he’s seated on a stool as Praya paints his nails, her focus unwavering.I cross my arm

    GINA’S POVI found myself in a field, lying as I gazed at the skies. I wasn't sure where I was, but it felt and looked like paradise. The moon’s gaze met and I felt a sense of serenity. A hand suddenly caught my attention as it reached out to me. Without hesitating, I took it and I was pulled off the ground. As I stood on my feet, my breath hitched when Praya stood in front of me.My heart warmed as I pulled her into an embrace. “I missed you so much. I’m here now,” I whispered into her neck, breathing in her scent. She was real because I could feel every part of her; from the beating of her heart and the warmth radiating from her body. When I looked in front of me, my mother was standing there, waiting, with a genuine smile on her face. We pulled away from our embrace and Praya held my hand, guiding me further into paradise as she spoke, “Now we can be together.”I followed, my heart radiating with joy.

    DEVYN’S POVMy whole world stopped as I held Gina in my arms. It all happened in a flash. With shaky hands, I pulled the blade out of her heart, and my heart sank deeper when she bled more. I pressed a hand to her bloodied chest, trying to stop the bleeding while I caressed her hair with my other hand.“Stay with me, please, stay with me,” was all I kept mumbling. Her amber gaze held mine, but she wasn't there… she wasn't looking. My heart twisted painfully as I felt her heartbeat slow against my palm. Standing on my feet, I carried her in my arms. She felt heavier than usual, her head fell back and her arms sagged lifelessly as I ran. She was still alive, though her heartbeat was faint. There was still a chance to save her. The fight had stopped as the monsters fell dead, probably because their master was dead, but I couldn’t care less… reviving her was the only thing on my mind. I never took my eyes off her face, hoping for some sort of miracle, to see those eyes come back to lif

    Everything happened in a flash. Wilona charged towards me and just as she was about to lunge at me, Liam jumped in and clashed into her. They fought, their bodies crashing into the ground and against the walls as they bit and clawed at each other.‘I don't know why you're doing this, but I’m not going to let you kill her!’Liam’s voice boomed in my mind just as he dodged a claw attack from Wilona, and sent her crashing to the ground.‘What do you even have for her that you’re willing to protect her?

    It didn’t take more than an hour till I got to my destination. Immediately we drove through the gates, there was an uneasy feeling that washed over me. I peered through the window, observing my surroundings. Everything seemed and looked normal, yet, it was far from it.When the car came to a halt, the driver who had been silent the entire ride opened the door for me, and I stepped out reluctantly. When I looked up, I found myself standing in front of a huge dark mansion. I would’ve admired the remarkable architecture if not for the feeling of anxiety creeping down my spine. There was something thick in the atmosphere that made my skin crawl and I couldn't understand what it was.I took a deep breath as I walked ahead, being led to the mansion’s entrance by two large men. As the door opened, we stepped into the mansion, walking through wide long halls. When we reached the next doorway, the door swung open, revealing a majestic dining room.

Reluctantly, he handed me the phone.“He wants to speak to you specifically.”Wasting no time, I grabbbed the phone and placed it against my ear.“Put it on speaker. I want to hear what he says to you,” Devyn instructed and I obeyed as I pressed the speaker button.“Gina.”Chills went through my spine, leaving an uneasy feeling within me.
