LOGINNyra’s POVVanessa recoiled back into her shell almost immediately.I had never spoken to her that way before.But I was done being so soft to leeches that deserved my fury.Silas scoffed harshly.“You want to act like a victim? Fine. Go ahead.” His voice rose louder.The laugh I had been holding back finally escaped my lips.The hall stayed in silence until I had laughed to my fill.Before this amount of scrutiny would have had me running for the hills and they knew it but I had died… that shyness had nothing on me.“You are still playing this card?” I asked, stepping closer slowly to the twins' disapproval.“You mean I should have walked down the aisle to marry you even after discovering my fiancé had already fathered a child with my own sister?”His expression twisted as gasps once again filled the echoed silence.“That was in the past.”In my past life, two days after the wedding… two of them had approached me with very detailed information on their affair.I confronted Silas and
The hall fell silent.What was this rush I was feeling?Satisfaction?I couldn’t remember the last time I had done something that had made him as speechless as he looked now.There was no doubt that he could no longer recognize the woman standing before him.But this wasn’t enough though.All I wanted to do right now was to make him feel exactly how I had when I laid on that operating table.“Patience…” Serenx drawled.In due time.“Nyra…honey, let’s not do this in front of everyone.” Silas finally said, breaking the deafening silence. I almost burst out laughing.Upset?Was that what he thought this was all about?It was an understatement…I was furious and I could feel my burning rage rising from exactly where the goddess had touched me.The whispers that had once quieted down slowly stirred again.My eyes met dad and I subtly motioned for him not to interfere.This was exactly what I wanted… the whispers.Every noble in the hall was watching… practically salivating over the scanda

Nyra’s POV‘Why do I feel like there were a whole lot of things that had happened and…’“You have questions,” Serenyx’s voice echoed calmly in my mind, “and you will have your answers. But first… let’s give Silas a taste of what’s coming.”Her words boosted my morale.‘How?’ I asked.She chuckled softly, “You’re stronger than you think, Nyra. A phoenix doesn’t need to be taught how to burn”A phoenix?She didn’t answer me anymore as the grand halls were opened.The grand ceremonial hall was packed with all high profiled people from all over the region.From council elders to pack nobles and allies representatives.Every important set of eyes in Blood Moon territory and packs under us was present.Perfect for a showdown but still I had no idea of what to do.Slow entrance music began playing as we took steps towards where the devil himself stood.Heads turned and gasps followed suit.My eyes searched for Nessa’s and before she realized I had seen her, there was a frown on her face.In

AURORA'S POVI arrived home that evening to an empty house with a note on the counter.The piece of paper explained that Alaric had taken Asher and Seraphina to the pack gathering I had declined to attend.Good for them because I needed the space to think about my next move.There was no food, so I
AURORA'S POV Elder Miriam's cottage was located at the edge of pack territory.I knocked on her door at nearly midnight with my heart pounding hard.My mind flew back to how I got here.“The test results are back,” Lyra had said as she closed the office door.She has come up to me and spread sever
