Chapter Hundred and Twenty-One Violet's POV As I sit by the fire, surrounded by the laughter of my pack, I try to immerse myself in the warmth of their joy. Jack’s voice carries over the chatter as he shares tales of our journey, his laughter infectious. I want to feel that happiness, but the tether’s words linger in my mind like a dark cloud.I can’t shake the visit from the tether. His presence, though fleeting, ignited a storm of confusion within me. The promise of power, of being chosen, clashed violently with my loyalty to the pack. I can’t believe I even entertained the thought of turning against my own.I pull my knees close to my chest, forcing myself to focus on the camaraderie surrounding me. They deserve my strength now more than ever. We’re finally safe, and we have a chance to build a life together.But the tether’s voice echoes in my mind. You have the potential to be more than just another member of the pack. You could lead them and be their queen.“Violet?” Maria’s v

Chapter 112

Jenna's POV As we step back into the cabin, laughter still bubbling on our lips, it hits me like a wall of ice that something is terribly wrong. My eyes lands on the door which hangs ajar, creaking on its hinges, and the normally welcoming scent of woodsmoke and fresh earth is tainted with something metallic and sour. I hear Raina growl low in her throat. My heart races as I exchange worried glances with Raina and Eleanor. “Did you leave the door open?” I ask, my voice barely above a whisper, even though I knew they'd done nothing like that, we'd left the cabin together, and everything had not been Inna disarray. “No,” Raina replies, confirming my suspicion, her brow furrowing as she pushes the door open wider. Inside, chaos reigns. Furniture is overturned, cushions are strewn about, and the floor is littered with broken glass. I can’t even recognize the cozy living space we left just hours before. The sense of safety I had wrapped around me like a blanket unravels with each step

Chapter 113

Jenna's POV As we continue to run through the thick trees, my heart pounds in my chest. Each breath comes in quick gasps, and my legs ache with every step. The sounds of the forest—birds chirping and leaves rustling—fade behind me, replaced by the distant shouts of the men chasing us. Fear mixes with adrenaline, pushing me forward. “Keep moving!” Eleanor shouts, her voice sharp but full of determination. Raina is just ahead of me, her serious look cutting through my panic. “Where are we going?” I ask, trying to catch my breath.“To the edge of town,” Eleanor answers quickly, her eyes scanning the path ahead. “We need to get as far away from here as possible. We can’t let them catch us.”I grip her words tightly, trying to drown out my doubts. The memory of our cabin—how safe it felt—now seems like a distant dream. “Do you think they’ll follow us?” Raina asks, glancing back at me with worry in her eyes.“Maybe,” Eleanor replies, her expression grave. “But we’re faster. We’ll make it

Chapter 124

Jenna's POV The room settles into a tense silence as we take a moment to breathe, though I can feel the adrenaline from the chase still humming in my veins. Outside, a cool breeze slips through cracks in the window, stirring the dust in beams of pale light. Eleanor, Raina, and I glance around the room, sizing up our new, temporary shelter.“Should we check the place out?” I ask, pushing myself up from the chair. It creaks, threatening to give way beneath me.Eleanor nods, always on alert, her gaze sharp. “Good idea. We need to make sure there’s no one else here.”Raina’s eyes dart around the shadowy corners, and I can tell she’s still nervous; her usual sass and bravery faded to silence. “I’ll go with you both,” she says, her voice softer than usual. We head out of the small room and into the corridor, our footsteps echoing as we make our way down the hallway. Every creak and groan of the old building makes my heart leap, but I remind myself we’re safe here—at least for now.As we e

Chapter 125

Jack's POV For the first time in weeks, I feel a sense of accomplishment. We’ve found a place we can finally call our own. As I take it all in, Jordan steps up beside me, his eyes scanning the scene with a look of satisfaction.“You’ve led us through a lot, Jack,” he says, his tone filled with respect. “Not everyone could have done what you did, guiding us through those woods, keeping us safe. We’re here because of you.”I return his gaze, giving a half-smile. “It wasn’t just me. This land is fertile, blessed. It’ll provide for us, I know it. The gods are on our side.”Jordan nods, the flicker of hope clear in his eyes. “We can finally build something better, something that’ll last.”Before I can respond, a ripple of tension moves through the camp. The laughter dies down, conversations fall silent, and I hear a low murmur of unease from the pack members nearby. My senses sharpen, my eyes narrowing as I follow their gazes toward the edge of the clearing.A lone figure steps out of the

Chapter 126

Jenna's POV As evening falls, I can still feel the tension from earlier, thick and heavy in the air. I know Eleanor’s protective nature had made her seem harsh, but I also know we owe Greta an apology. I spot her sitting alone at the far end, a worn book open on her lap, the flames flickering and reflecting in her watchful eyes. When I approach, she looks up, surprised, but offers me a small, guarded smile."Mind if I sit?" I ask, gesturing to the empty chair across from her.She gives a short nod, closing her book and resting it on her lap. "Not at all, Jenna."I sink into the chair, feeling the warmth from the fire and the faint scent of smoke mixing with the leather of old chairs. I hesitate, but then I say softly, "I wanted to apologize for earlier. Eleanor… she can be rough around the edges. She didn’t mean to be harsh; she’s just… protective. It’s been a hard life for us." My words trail off as I look down, unsure of how much to say.Greta’s face softens as she listens. "I unde

Chapter 127

Jenna's POV As I head back to my room, the embers of Greta’s words still smolder in my chest, sparking an unexpected fire. I can’t quite shake the idea that’s taken root in my mind—this old inn, worn but sturdy, could be more than just a shelter. Greta has given us a roof, and maybe that’s all she meant it to be, but I feel it could become so much more. The council and their spies may be relentless, yet the thought of creating a place of true refuge here, hidden away from their reach, fills me with a hope I haven’t felt in a long time.But I can’t sleep with that hope buzzing through me. My muscles are tight from tension, my senses still sharp. After so long on the run, my instinct for survival won’t let me sit still tonight.I change course, slipping quietly out of my room, down the creaky staircase, and through the hallway that opens up to the inn’s back courtyard. It’s just wide enough for me to stretch and maybe practice a few moves, though the space is uneven, and the only light

Chapter 128

Jenna's POV The next morning, I wake up to the inviting smell of freshly baked bread and a warm light spilling through the window. I stretch and take a moment to appreciate how comfortable the bed is, thinking I could easily get used to mornings like this. Quickly dressing, I follow the delicious aroma that wraps around me like a soft blanket, guiding me downstairs.In the kitchen, Eleanor is already busy, moving carefully among the pots, pans, and jars, as if she’s studying each one to memorize its place. I can see the concentration on her face, testing every step she takes, and I stand back for a moment, admiring her determination.Eleanor has always looked a lot more relaxed in the kitchen. Maybe cooking is also therapeutic for her. I have come to really enjoy the art of making food. I bet it's the same for her too. “Need a hand?” I ask softly, not wanting to startle her.She looks up, relief washing over her features. “I’m just trying to figure out where everything is. I think G

Chapter 129

Jenna's POV Greta does not join us for breakfast. She had complained about her legs this morning. Rosie says, her expression seeming guarded. "Is she alright?" I ask, concerned filling every pore in my body. "She is okay, not open to receiving visitors at the moment, but I'm sure she will come down when she falls ready." Rosie says. For a moment, I wonder whether Greta and Rosie could be hiding things from us, but I don't probe. They have a right to their privacy in the same way I do to mine. So far, Greta's aura and that if her housekeeper has been clean, I haven't felt like I have anything to worry about. But if they're really wolves in sheep clothing, time will reveal it. After breakfast, we decide to tour the neighboring town. "The town does not exactly boast of anything." Rosie had said when Raina had offered that we look around. "It's just the local post office and diner. Most of the locals have moved further up; nothing really happens here anymore." She had looked a lit

Violet’s POVThe night is filled with chaos—wolves fighting, growling, and struggling in a brutal clash. The Nightspire pack has launched a fierce attack, and our pack fights back with everything we have. Claws and teeth flash in the dark, bodies colliding as everyone struggles to hold their ground. I try to stay focused, fighting alongside my pack, but there’s something else pulling at my attention.It’s the tether; its pull is stronger than ever, whispering in my mind, tugging me toward the edge of the battlefield. I clench my jaw, forcing myself to stay in the fight, but it’s no use. The tether is like an invisible hand, reaching deep into my mind, urging me to leave the battle behind and follow it into the shadows.I glance around, making sure no one notices me stepping back, and then slip toward the trees. The sounds of the battle fade a little as I move into the shadows, but I can still hear the snarls and cries of my packmates fighting for their lives. My heart pounds, but the
