Erin Lockheart's POVI ate all the pastries he gave me without hesitation. I was really hungry after last night. He was laughing as he watched me marvel. "I forgot how big your appetite was.""It's not." I cleared my throat. "I was just hungry.""You always are.""I'm not," I said as I continued to gobble the food down my throat. This reminds me of how we were kids. Although it was the original Erin Lockheart's memory, I can still feel it as if they were mine. It feels weird. I feel like an impostor.Cadmus' gaze fell to the metal binding my arms and legs. "I'm sorry that it had to be like this, but I know the minute I took these off, you'd run back to Kai, and I refuse to lose you a second time.""Kai isn't a bad person. He's not who you think he is.""You love him; of course you'd say that." There was bitterness in his tone, and his face says it all. It was pointless reasoning with him. If I were him, I wouldn't believe me either. Kai's reputation precedes him. It's a fact that he k

Erin Lockheart's POVI protested, "Come on, it's been days already. How long are you planning on keeping me here?"Luna scoffed, "As long as I have to. Kai is currently overwhelmed by our number, and he could barely reclaim their lands as fast as we could conquer them. It's only a matter of time until he is exhausted and vulnerable. He's not an alpha like Cadmus is, so his men would surely turn their backs on him once he started losing.""You're keeping me here because you know I have the power to turn it upside down.""As do I.""I know blood magic has its limitations despite being a great power." I continued, "I know you can't use it at great distances or when someone's will is greater than yours.""Fire magic has its limitations too. You can't do magic on a large scale continuously. There's a reload time, and you've never even been able to use it until that blood moon." Luna said, "It's pointless comparing. We both know we're equal when it comes to magic.""Then I guess I'll have t

Kai Griffin's POV"These men are the best of the best." Zenn said as he assembled the men, "But we're still greatly outnumbered.""And the men that the allies provided?" "They're already here." Zenn gritted his teeth, "Those cunning snakes! They gave you half the men they promised.""They'll give me the other half if I succeed in reclaiming Silvercrest." I continued, "They're cutting their losses. They're being cautious. If I win, they get their land; if I lose and I'm dead, they'll have no one to answer to.""And you're fine with this?""I'll take whatever I can." I continued, "Let's march. I have a war to win and a girl to save."With only a few warriors by my side, I put the kingdom in Zenn's skilled hands, leaving him with the majority of our armies. I couldn't risk leaving our house undefended, despite Zenn's harsh warnings about the dangers of my personal involvement. These warriors had pledged their devotion to me and agreed to fight beside me on the battlefield."They wouldn'

Cadmus Hunter POVI've had a lingering feeling that the Erin I once knew, my childhood friend, is no longer present. Yet, I hesitated to acknowledge it fully because it would mean that her soul left Lunaria Kingdom while waiting for my return and no one even noticed.Erin met my gaze squarely as she spoke, her words confirming my suspicions. "You're right. I'm not the real Erin—the one you grew up with. I have her memories and her body, but not her soul.""I see," I responded quietly. "Can you explain what happened?""In my world," Erin began, her voice carrying the weight of a profound revelation: "I was the writer of this story. The night I died, for reasons I still can't fathom, I ended up here." She paused, gathering her thoughts. "Originally, the plot was that Erin Lockheart died tragically, and her death brought you and Luna closer as the protagonists. In a desperate attempt to rewrite my fate, I interfered with the story, bringing us all into this uncertain reality. I'm not sur

Erin Lockheart's POVWith only a day left before the pivotal decision that could define my fate, I find myself torn between two paths: betraying Kai to secure my freedom and reclaiming my life, or betraying Cadmus for the sake of love.The weight of this choice hung heavy on my shoulders as I carefully consider the consequences of each option.I love Kai deeply, with all my heart, but Cadmus's offer promises a future of peace and safety, far removed from the strife and danger that have haunted me for so long.As I grapple with the decision, I must confront not only my feelings of love and loyalty but also the practical considerations of survival and security. Isn't this what I wanted all along? A peaceful and long life? The stakes are high, and the clock is ticking, leaving me to wrestle with a choice that will shape the course of my life—and perhaps the lives of those I hold dear—for years to come.My spirit wolf appeared before me and I looked at it with bitterness as I asked, "Of
