Chapter 131

Jack’s POVThe battle is over; our retreat signaled our surrender. The Nightspire pack had won. I wasn't ashamed about our defeat. After the last attack on our pack by the humans, the last thing I wanted was to lose more of my people to the cold hands of war. Our pack has suffered deeply; I can see it in the exhaustion on their faces and the wounds on their bodies. We were forced to retreat, the land we thought would be ours slipping away like sand between our fingers. As we regroup, the silence is deafening. Everyone’s eyes are cast downward, all too aware of the cost of this fight. Derrick, one of our bravest and kindest wolves, lies cold and still on the ground. Just hours ago, he was alive, a strong force helping secure the new territory. I kneel beside him, feeling the weight of guilt and loss. Derrick deserved better than this end. He was one of the first to join us, one who believed in the vision of finding a new place where we could be safe. His loyalty to me, to the pack,

Chapter 132

Violet's POVWe move deeper into the forest, shadows stretching around us as night falls. The pack is tired and tense; everyone’s focused on getting to safety, but my mind is a storm. I can't shake the image of Derrick's face, the shock and pain in his eyes as he realised what I'd done. I hadn’t just taken his life—I’d betrayed him. Even now, the guilt gnaws at me, an ache that won’t go away. But the tether won’t let me dwell on it. It tightens its grip, whispering that this is just the beginning, that we’re doing what’s necessary to make the pack stronger. It tells me that Derrick’s child, Lyra, is the next step in that plan.Lyra, a little girl of ten with her father’s brown eyes and short, curly brown hair, had always been bright, clever, and eager to learn. While we journeyed through the forest, she was one of the first to pick up skills like catching small prey and defending herself. She learned fast and was braver than most adults, even though she was just a child. Her innocenc

Chapter 133

Jack's POVThe air is thick with tension as we move through the dense woods. A faint rustling above signals the presence of an owl, but even the forest seems unusually quiet today. The only sound I hear clearly is my own breath, steady and controlled. But that doesn't stop the unease creeping into my chest. Violet is ahead, just within sight. I can see the tension in her posture and the way her eyes scan the darkness between the trees, vigilant as ever. She’s become a shadow of the woman I once knew; her edge dulled, and the fire that once burnt within her flickering weakened.I don’t know when it happened. Maybe it was the attacks, or maybe it was the pressure of the responsibility I placed on her shoulders. But something is off. The fierce, unyielding force I admired in her feels distant now, submerged beneath layers of coldness. The bond we once shared is fraying, thin threads pulling apart with each passing day. The silence between us feels heavier than it ever has before.I canno

Chapter 134

Jenna's POVThe next morning, the air in the inn feels lighter. The sun spills through the cracks of the old, wooden beams, casting a warm glow over everything. I’m at the long table, watching the others as they move around the kitchen. Eleanor and Raina chat in low voices, more relaxed than they’ve ever been. After everything we’ve been through, this feels like the calm before the storm. But it’s a nice calm, the kind that almost makes you forget how much danger we’re really in.The kitchen door swings open, and Greta steps in. It’s the first time she’s come down for breakfast since we got here. There’s a softness in her eyes, a little less tension in her posture. She moves toward the table with a small, genuine smile, her eyes lingering on each of us.“Morning,” she says simply, taking her spot at the head of the table.We all greet her back, but it’s the first time the atmosphere feels truly comfortable. It doesn't feel like she's just tolerating us anymore. I think she’s starting

Chapter 135

Jack’s POVAs sunlight recedes and darkness descends, we continue to move through the forest, understanding that it is better to be as far away from the Nightspire pack as possible. Now that they had tasted victory from our hands, they could try to follow us, to loot. But fatigue tightens my joints, and as I signal for the pack to halt and settle in for the night, a strange weariness creeps into my bones. “Lay camp here,” I call out, trying to keep my voice steady. “Rest while you can.” The pack disperses, spreading their sleeping mats on the forest floor and setting up small fires to keep the chill at bay. They move with an unspoken understanding, everyone aware of the dangers that surround us, even in sleep. I should be used to this, leading my pack through hostile lands, but tonight feels different. For the first time, I can’t shake the feeling that we’re not safe here—or anywhere.I sit down on a fallen log, my eyes tracing the shadows shifting in the distance. I can hear the l

Chapter 136

Jack’s POVThe morning sunlight breaks through the trees, warming the forest and lifting some of the night’s chill. My pack stirs, stretching their bodies, rubbing their eyes, and shaking off the weight of exhaustion. We've been on the move for days, staying alert, avoiding enemies, and keeping close together. Every morning brings new worries, but today, there’s something different in the air—a kind of quiet peace that I can’t quite put my finger on.I walk around the camp, checking in on everyone. Just as I’m about to call out to Bryce, a howl rings out, strong and joyous, echoing through the trees. My head snaps in his direction, and I see him just beyond the clearing, his eyes wide with excitement and disbelief. He’s standing close to another pack member, Talia, a young wolf I’ve known since she was a pup. She’s looking up at Bryce, her eyes bright with surprise and joy.I pause, realising what I’m seeing. Bryce and Talia... they’re mates. They’ve finally found each other.The pack

Chapter 137

Jack’s POVThe camp settles down as the pack prepares for our journey. We’re all tired, both from the physical exhaustion of running and the mental weight of not knowing what lies ahead. I know I’ve made the right choice, but there’s a lingering feeling of tension in the air. We’ve lived in the forest for so long that the idea of leaving it behind seems almost impossible.I barely finish my thoughts before I notice Jordan approaching, his face shadowed with concern. As my beta, he’s been by my side through every battle and every decision. I can tell by his look that he’s got a lot on his mind.“Alpha,” he starts, his voice low but steady. “I never thought I’d see the day we’d leave these woods. I’ve been thinking of all kinds of ways we might survive—hiding in caves, moving to remote places, maybe even somewhere like the icy lands where no one would think to look. But the last thing I expected was to move to a human town.”I nod, understanding the weight of his words. “I know, Jordan.

Chapter 138

Jenna's POV The next morning, I meet Raina and Eleanor for another training. The inn is quiet at this hour, and the silence around us feels like it’s setting the stage for something intense. Today’s training feels different, like there’s an unspoken anticipation building between us.Eleanor gives me a nod, her expression focused. Raina stretches, rolling her shoulders, looking ready. I take a deep breath, feeling a strange energy coursing through me—a power I’ve never fully tested but somehow know is there, waiting.We start off simply, going through our usual warm-ups. But the moment we begin sparring, I realise today’s going to be different. I don't know whether it's because of the secluded area which allows me to be myself, or the fact that I am almost in the middle of nowhere, far from the bad humans. Each move I make feels effortless, as if my body’s on autopilot. I dodge Eleanor’s punch with ease, and when Raina tries to surprise me from the side, I sidestep and counter so fast

Chapter 139

Jenna’s POVAfter a long day of training, we all disperse. Eleanor wants to check out the town again, and Raina wants to fix up the bedstand in her room. The inn falls into its usual quiet, one that I have quickly become accustomed to. The inn reminds me so much of my old life. Its tranquility reminds me of times in the pack when I had constantly been in the company of papa, and Elise. I’m wiping down the counters in the kitchen when I hear footsteps. Turning, I see Greta watching me with a look that’s hard to read, like she’s weighing something heavy in her mind. “Jenna,” she begins, her voice calm but firm. “I’ve been thinking about this renovation idea.”I pause, feeling a spark of excitement. Greta had already given her approval, but there’s something in her eyes now that makes me think she’s looking at it in a new way.She crosses her arms, studying me with a steady gaze. “Seeing you train today… You’re more determined than I realized. There’s strength in you that goes beyond

Chapter 140

Jack’s POV I lay down on the cool, hard ground, pulling my cloak tighter as I glance around at my pack resting nearby. The earth beneath me feels solid, grounding me, as if it’s lending me its strength. The stars above are bright, almost comforting, but even their light can’t ease the weight in my chest.Tonight, I’m surrounded by family, by wolves who have followed me through every danger, every hardship. Tomorrow, we leave our forest behind for a human town—a place none of us truly know. The thought of it fills me with a strange unease. I want to believe this is the right choice, that leaving the forest will give us the safety we need. But doubts linger.The soft sound of breathing around me reminds me of the lives I’m responsible for. I close my eyes, forcing myself to rest. Slowly, the world fades.When I open my eyes again, I’m standing in the middle of a battlefield, surrounded by smoke and the loud blasts of gunfire. The forest is still here, but it’s shrouded in darkness, wit
