My heart raced incredibly fast as I watched Keiran storm off, leaving me standing there surrounded by clueless yet curious trainees.
Swallowing with difficulty, I raised my shirt and covered my scar before running off, feeling the silence that fell on the training ground suddenly deafening and their stares were like lasers to my my skin.
With my back on the mirror, I removed my shirt, looking back behind me through the mirror as I raced my scar with my finger.
The memory of that tragic night once again flickered in my mind. My mother’s frantic shouts and the metallic scent of blood in the air.
“Maddie! No!”
That was my mother’s scream befo

Keiran’s POVThe sight of that scar really fueled the burning fire within me, and I momentarily lost control of myself. How could I do that in front of my pack? More importantly, in front of the trainees.After storming off, I went straight to my office, slamming the door right as I entered.“She’s lying!” Brax growled.Shaking my head, I grabbed my swivel chair and opened my locked drawer, pulling out a picture frame from the inside. It’s a photo of me and Francine when we got married. “I don’t know, Brax… Maybe she really doesn’t remember.”He let out a snarl. “You saw the way she panicked. She’s hiding something.”“

Madeline’s POVThe night was deep, and the breeze was cold. The wind rustled through the trees while I was seated on the giant tree’s roots, curled into a ball, with my eyes stinging from tears.My hands were covering my ears, trying to block out the voices that followed me wherever I went. I was gifted, with a hearing heightened than average werewolves. But growing up, it's more of a curse than a gift.I could hear from miles away the whispers of blame, resentment, and hatred coming from my pack members and my family. The scrutiny they have over me… All the while, all they had for Amanda was sweet praises.But their words, as sharp as swords,s weren’t what pained me. In fact, I was long numbed by those things. What really hurt me was the non-stop voices I heard a few

Madeline’s POVI wanted to comprehend what Francine was trying to tell me. Analyze who she wanted me to protect. But before I could actually think straight, the guilt started eating me alive, more than it did a few years back.The whispers of my packmates filled with scrutiny before never felt so real as they echoed in my mind. All their accusations, resentment, and hatred that I managed to push away started to feel so heavy.“She killed the Queen.”“It’s all because of her.”“Damn, right it is, she’s cursed!”“It should’ve been her instead…”“Stop…” I breathed heavily, clutching my chest as I put down my legs on the floor and sat on the edge of my bed with my torso bent down and head bowed between my legs, gasping for air, begging, “Stop it…”My palms were pressed on my ears, rocking myself slightly to ease the panic crushing my soul.“Adeline? Adeline! Are you there?”I turned my head in panic, looking at the pounding knock as I heard Helena’s voice outside, knocking.Covering my li

Madeline’s POVMy hand held the knob of his office door tightly as all sorts of emotions fought within me, overwhelming my entire being.As I twist it, I am ready to step out and prepare for what’s more to come. With how he had sounded, I’d say having him kick me out like what I wanted would be a miracle, and letting me stay without making my life a living hell would be something ot be grateful about already.“You’ll stay in the pack.”My eyes widened, and my body froze right at the doorway.Did I hear him right? He wanted me to stay? What kind of punishment would he want me to face, though?He’s Alpha Keiran, and I’m at the Demonmaw Nightwalker Pack. They're the boogeyman parents who used the past three years for their pups. I knew his madness would get the best of him, and look at me with prejudice.I knew to myself that I didn’t kill Luna. I was just there at the wrong time and the wrong place. On the other hand, my trying to save Francine was what caused my Mom’s death. But I’m not

Madeline’s POV“You’ve been staring at them for ten minutes now. Thinking about joining?”Right after eating, we stood at the corner of the training field, watching the others spar in pairs. I was lazily staring at the front while Helena was sipping water from her bottle, giving me side-eyes every now and then.My eyes landed on Jaxon, who was sparing quite aggressively with his partner while giving me quick glances. “I’d rather not add more fuel to the fire.”It’s my break anyway. I’m not obligated to join the training.Helena grinned, turning to her side to face me. “Smart choice. Jaxon’s still sore about losing to you. If you step on that field, he’ll make sure you regret it.”I snickered and rolled my eyes. “He’s not exactly subtle about it.”She shook her head but snorted a little in understanding. “Well, it wasn’t really his best suit.”Silence enveloped us for a little while, but I could feel her staring at me, studying my reactions. “You’re still thinking about earlier, aren’t

Madeline’s POVChill ran through my spine at his question. Were they? Were those people from the palace? Did they already know about me hiding in here?But if there’s one pack the palace was cautious about, it would be this pack. There’s no way they’d be foolish enough to have the palace warriors round up this pack, much less send a spy in here.Were they?“I… I don’t know…” I replied instead. He’d kill me or throw me away if he learned it's possible that the threat had soemthing ot do with me.He stood right in front of me, eyes looking down into mine as he spoke dangerously, “If you’re keeping things from me, you’re putting my entire pack at risk.”I swallowed hard. “I’m not lying.”He didn’t completely believe me as he hissed at me before grabbing his jacket from the stand and gesturing for me to follow him. “Which side of the border? I’ll handle it.”“What exactly did you see?” he asked quietly, trying not to scare off anyone if there was still someone left.We walked alongside ea

Madeline’s POVI surveyed the surroundings first before I ran toward the forest, standing beneath the tree where Felix was hiding. Looking up, I hissed in a sharp but low voice, “What the hell are you doing here, Felix?”“Madeline…” he whispered back before he maneuvered and jumped off the tree and onto the ground right in front of me.Urgency was written all over his face as he took a step forward and held both my shoulders worriedly, speaking in a hushed voice, “I came to warn you. Mark knows you’re here.”As if burned, I took a step back and shrugged his hold off of me as I felt my pulse quickening. Damn, mate bond!I couldn’t wait

Madeline’s POVI stayed frozen in there for a long moment, staring at the darkness where Felix had disappeared, feeling relief that no one was around and Keiran hadn’t finished heightening the patrol yet.But most of all, what bothered me was Felix’s words that echoed in my head like a broken cassette player.“Mark knows you’re here.”“There’s a spy in Demonmaw.”“He’s feeding the council with lies.”My heart pounded as I forced myself to move, knowing I couldn’t afford to let fear and panic control me. What I needed now were answers.Spinning on my heel
