Hazel's POV

Zion's gaze flickered with a mixture of guilt and fear as he met my gaze. "Because I know the dangers that lurk within the darkness," he confessed, his voice barely more than a whisper. "I have seen what happens when mortals meddle with forces beyond their comprehension."

I scoffed at his words, my patience wearing thin as I dismissed his warnings with a wave of my hand. "Oh zip it with your cryptic warnings, old man, and cut to the chase," I snapped, my voice dripping with disdain. "I have no time for your superstitions."

But Zion refused to be dissuaded, his eyes pleading with me to heed his words. "You must understand, my lord," he insisted, his voice growing urgent. "The greater rituals are not to be trifled with. They hold the power to unleash forces that could destroy us all."

I brushed off his warnings with a scoff, my arrogance blinding me to the dangers that lurked within the shadows. "I will not be swayed by your fearmongering, Zion," I declared, my voice drippin

My breath came in ragged gasps as I struggled to shake off the lingering sense of dread that had enveloped me in my sleep.As I blinked away the last vestiges of the dream, I found Mabel standing beside my bed, her expression one of concern. "Mia," she said softly, her voice breaking through the silence of the night. "Are you okay? You were tossing and turning."I forced a weak smile, my attempt to reassure her falling short as the memory of the nightmare faded into the recesses of my mind. "I'm fine, Mabel," I replied, my voice tinged with uncertainty. "Just a bad dream," I said, my voice sounding hollow even to my own ears. "Nothing to worry about."But Mabel wasn't convinced, her eyes searching mine for any sign of the truth. "You've been having these nightmares for weeks now," she said, her tone

    Mia's POVAs I made my way back towards the base, the weight of the curfew imposed by Alpha Fenrir hung heavy on my mind. The streets were deserted, the only sound the soft echo of my footsteps against the pavement. Despite the late hour, the moon cast a gentle glow over the city, bathing everything in its ethereal light.As I neared the base, a flicker of movement caught my eye, and I looked up to see Lycidas sitting on the roof, his gaze fixed on the moon above. There was something mesmerizing about the way he gazed up at the moon, his expression thoughtful and somewhat unnaturally contemplative.A pang of curiosity stirred within me. Without hesitation, I made my decision—I wasn't quite ready to retreat to the confines of my bed just yet. Before I knew it, I found myself climbing the nearest tree, determined to join him.With each handhold and foothold, I felt a rush of adrenaline course through me, my muscles straining with the effort of scaling the tree. But as I reached the top,

"All this time, they've been hiding the truth from us."Lycidas nodded grimly, his expression mirroring my own turmoil. "They wanted us to have a calm before the storm I guess," he explained, his words tinged with bitterness. "To keep us unaware until the blood moon comes, so that we'd be ready. The blood moon is ever closer than it has been in years."I clenched my fists at my sides, frustration and anger simmering beneath the surface. "So that's why they've been keeping things from us," I muttered, my gaze fixed on the forest floor below. "But it doesn't make it right. We have a right to know what's going on."Despite Lycidas's reassurances and Mabel's praise of my progress, I couldn't shake the feeling of inadequacy that

Every breath felt like a struggle as I tried to maintain composure in his presence.The air around us crackled with an unseen energy, charged with the weight of unspoken words and unexplored possibilities.

I understood where her rage toward me was coming from and it was not like I was nut beating myself up over it as well.Martha's eyes filled with tears as she nodded, her hands gripping Michael's arm for support. "I understand, Alpha Fenrir. I just wish there was another way."Michael offered Martha a reassuring smile, his voice steady despite the uncertainty in the air. "We have to trust Alpha Fenrir's judgment, Martha. He knows what he's doing."As Alpha Fenrir began his incantation, Lycidas and I exchanged glances, our confusion giving way to understanding. "They're trying to cure her," I whispered, realization dawning on me.Lycidas nodded, his eyes fixed on Maya as Alpha Fenrir's magic enveloped her. "It all makes sense now. Alpha Fenrir wouldn't harm Maya intentionally. He's trying to save her."Despite our initial fears, we watched in silence as Alpha Fenrir and his companions worked tirelessly to fr

    Mia's POVTogether, we watched in silence as the world around us seemed to warp and shift, reality bending and twisting in ways that defied explanation. I had a feeling I had experienced this before somewhere - and quite recently too - only, perhaps, a different 'flavour' of it as it were. Do not ask me to explain - I am well aware how absurd that sounded.Then everything seemingly snapped into place, the world itself apparently having decided to reinforce reality. I gazed up at the sky, and my breath caught in my throat as I beheld the monstrous entity hovering above the forest. It defied description, a grotesque amalgamation of twisted limbs and alien appendages.The creature's body was an oval mass, pulsating with a sickly hue that seemed to shift and morph with each passing moment. Three pairs of spindly legs extended from its underside, each ending in jagged claws that twitched with an otherworldly energy.From its grotesque mandibles hung a network of sinewy threads, each one

Gasping for breath, I struggled to regain my footing, the dagger slipping from my grasp as I fought to shake off the shock of the impact.That had been a bad idea. A very very bad idea. Damn.Through the haze of pain, I could see Lycidas battling furiously against the creature, his movements a blur of speed and agility as he danced around its massive form. But even as he fought, it was clear that the creature was too powerful, its tendrils of darkness overwhelming him at every turn.Desperation clawed at my chest as I watched Lycidas falter,

But my hopes were dashed as I watched Lycidas struggle against the overwhelming tide of webbing, his movements growing sluggish under its oppressive weight.With a surge of determination, I leaped from tree to tree, seeking to flank the creature and strike at its vulnerable points. But with each bound, the webbing seemed to stretch and contort, forming a barrier that blocked my path and sent me tumbling back to the forest floor.Struggling against the constricting bonds, I felt panic rising within me as the creature's webbing tightened around me, threatening to immobilize me completely. With each futile attempt to break free, the webbing only seemed to grow stronger, its adhesive grip becoming increasingly difficult to overcome.

As the last vestiges of life faded from its eyes, I breathed evenly and transformed back. Running up quickly, I jumped and kissed my mate. The flames on his hair were hot but they were not unbearable and they died down as he held me and kissed me back. It took all my willpower to break free from him and let us breath. Strands of sticky saliva trailed our lips as we parted and I was flushed up to my ears, breathless."Mia?" He breathed, looking at me in surprise.I would have grinned at him if I were not too busy being stunned."Xavier?!" I exclaimed. "What in the world?! How? I thought...""You never did see me without my turban," he teased. And he was right come to think of it."So the memory loss...""I did lose my memory," he said, shaking his head.

    Mia's POV"Yeah," I grinned at her. "Now please someone tell me what is going on? How did everyone get here?""There is little time for that," Amelia said, a scary amount of hope alight in her eyes. "Alpha King Hazel has gone mad and he is turning people left and right corrupted." I could see that everyone was surprised to hear this. But the forest itself whispered to me that she spoke the truth. "But he also has a way to cure the corruption. It is a wand in beneath his throne."I smiled at her and gazed out at the Sulfur Hands gathered. I did not see Lycidas but that was not a problem. I was certain he was alright."Well guys, it is the night of the blood moon. I have to tell you that I've got a castle to storm so come on out all of you and get away already.

    Hazel's POVAs I stand in the dimly lit chamber, the vial of corrupted blood held delicately between my fingers, I can feel the weight of expectation bearing down upon me. Zion's eyes bore into me with a pensive gaze, his expression unreadable as he observes my every move. The air is heavy with anticipation, charged with the possibility of what is to come.With a steady hand, I bring the vial to my lips and drink deeply, allowing the thick, viscous liquid to slide down my throat. The taste is metallic, tinged with a hint of something dark and otherworldly. But as the last drop passes my lips, I feel no surge of power, no sudden transformation. I am not surprised.I never expected the corrupted blood to grant me any sort of supernatural abilities. My purpose in drinking it was not to gain power, but to align myself with the prophecy, to force my way into its narrative. And in that regard, I believe I have succeeded.As I lower the vial, I meet Zion's gaze with a sense of calm resolve.

    ???'s POV Amidst the vast expanse of the celestial realm, I found myself floating among the stars, my consciousness adrift in a sea of cosmic wonders. Suddenly, a commanding voice reverberated through the void, pulling me from my reverie with its otherworldly resonance."Little thing," the voice called out, its words echoing through the cosmos like the distant rumble of thunder. Startled, I responded tentatively, my voice barely a whisper in the vastness of space. "Who... who's there?"I was ignored as the voice continued to speak. I listened intently as the voice spoke of the troubles that plagued mortals, of the ebb and flow of life, and of the chaos that reigned in the mortal realm. The voice seemed to ramble on for a while, its words swirling around me like a whirlwind of cosmic energy. It spoke of mortals and their endless troubles, of how they always seemed to find new ways to bring chaos and destruction upon themselves. It seemed rather easy to notice that it was the 'eyeball'

    ???'s POVI opened my mouth to protest, to demand answers to the questions that burned within me, but she cut me off with a dismissive wave of her hand. "I don't want to hear it," she said coldly, her gaze hardening as she turned away from me. "Just go. Leave me alone. Go do whatever you want to. I don't care. My Lycidas is not here. Please, just... Stop. You truly are not Lycidas. I do not know who you are, but you are not my beloved."I stood there in stunned silence, the weight of her words hanging heavy in the air between us. Part of me wanted to press her for answers, to demand to know what she meant by all of this. But another part of me knew that it was futile – that she would not deign to repeat herself. And even though I could not claim to know much else, I knew somehow that she was hundred percent certain that I was not Lycidas. And not in a character or behavioural kind of way. As in, I was fundamentally not Lycidas.With a heavy heart, I turned and walked away, the sound o

    Lycidas' POVThe soft glow of moonlight filtered through the curtains, casting a gentle illumination over Mia's room as I sat by her bedside, my fingers intertwined with hers as if holding onto a lifeline. The rhythmic rise and fall of her chest was the only indication of life, her face serene in slumber as she lay unconscious before me.I never realized how much I would miss her until now – the absence of her laughter, her vibrant energy, leaving a gaping hole in my heart that seemed impossible to fill. And yet, here she lay, so close yet so far, trapped in the grasp of an unknown darkness that threatened to consume her whole.I squeezed her hand gently, willing her to wake up, to return to me so that I could see the light in her eyes once more. But no matter how fervently I wished for her recovery, she remained still, her breathing steady but shallow, a silent reminder of the fragility of life.My mind drifted back to that fateful night when the ritual had gone awry, the memory of t

The words were etched into my mind, haunting me with their ominous implications.In my mind's eye, I saw the image of the small mouse, my faithful messenger, as it hurried into my room with urgent purpose.
