LOGINDarkness was still over the pack, the only thing helping them being the light that was from the streetlights and other artificial sources of light. And because the sun was a ball of nothing right now, that meant that it was also very cold. It was like it was nighttime all the time. And where Councilman Vance was, it was almost at the border. He was sitting in his car, the engine still alive as he tried to call the omega over and over. But after so many times, he had given up and had decided that he was just going to risk it and drive back into town to find the girl. Why? The truth was that he did not really know. What he did know was that he was being very stupid for wanting to do that, and that the old version of him would have never thought twice about this. Never. But now, he had grown so much as a person. He could literally just leave the town right now and disappear, saving himself, especially knowing that his colleagues had been brutally murdered. He could start another lif
Selena was in a hospital bed, her body feeling weird, but it felt okay. She felt lighter for some reason. It was hard to explain, but she knew that something had happened. Something was not right…but at the same time, she did not know if something was even wrong. It was just a feeling that she did not particularly like. And it was giving her anxiety. She could remember what had happened; how she had talked to the Moon goddess and had come to the hospital after learning how to bring someone back from the dead, even though it held risks. She had also chosen her little sister. As much as she loved Elijah and wanted him back so badly, she also would not know what to do if she lost her sister forever. So although she did not regret her choice, she was saddened that she could not save Elijah. She looked around the room and sniffled dryly, a weird feeling wrapped tightly around her head. She was not in pain or anything, but she was not completely okay. Someone walked into the room sudden
The other councilman was trying to get to Councilman Sloan; he had been trying for an hour or more now, but there was no luck. He had a very bad feeling that something had gone wrong, and there was a voice at the back of his head that kept telling him that he needed to leave. He was at the Chambers with Councilman Vance. He peeled the phone from his ear and sighed worriedly. “I still can’t get a hold of Sloan,” He said while looking directly at Vance. “I’m telling you, something’s wrong.” Vance shrugged weakly. “Our world may be ending, yet the Moon goddess chose an omega to save us; of course, something’s wrong.” “She’s literally your daughter.” “I know,” He replied without missing a beat. “But that does not change who she is. There are so many people in this pack who are more qualified. Hell, like Alpha Maddox. But Selena was chosen? An inexperienced omega?” He scoffed. “Daughter or not, it’s just the truth. And whatever you’re feeling is just anxiety. We all have that sh*t righ
Harry was on his feet, his heart pounding so hard that it felt like it was loud enough for him to hear. The gun remained pointed, his eyes trained on the door of the basement. Sweat flowed down his face easily, and his chest heaved up and down. His mouth was so dry, and he felt like crying, honestly.For a second, it seemed like the world stood still as he waited, waiting for either of these two things: certain death or surviving the most traumatic moment of his life.Then it happened. The door opened. But it was not what he was expecting. It was not broken down or anything. It was like whoever opened it knew the code.Malek walked in with ease, a smile on his face. When he saw his victim, his heart jumped with glee, and he got so f*cking excited. When Harry had run away from him, it had awakened something in him…almost like the adrenaline that awakens in a lion when a deer runs away from it.But seeing the gun escalated this. It had Malek even shaking. Yes, he knew he was a psycho,
A chill ran down Harry’s spine as he mentally chewed on the information of who was standing right in front of him…the very same man who was probably the one who had murdered his father and killed his dog.“Come on, man. Say something. You’re in the presence of a celebrity!” Malek said, chuckling freely. “I know your dad is dead and all, but come on…” He wiggled his brows, a crazy look in his eyes. “You’re sick!” Harry spat at him, the reminder that his father, who was the only family he had left, had just been murdered by this psychopath. “What the f*ck is wrong with you?!” Tears burned his eyes and threatened to fall. “Harry, Harry, Harry,” The guy replied calmly while taking a few steps closer to him. “Do you have any idea the things your father has done? Did you actually think that he was innocent? He deserved what he got, and everyone else who deserves death will get it before I take over this miserable pack. I will cleanse this town and will make it better.” He smiled widely, h
Harry’s POVHarry had made his way back home. It had been years since he had been taking his anxiety medication. Not because he was just dependent, but because he needed it. He was someone who had struggled with extreme anxiety since he was about nine years old. With his mother nowhere to be found since the woman had left him and his dad for a human years ago, that also did not do anything for his condition. People would always tell him that it was all in his head, that he didn't have to be dependent on his meds, but they did not get it. They did not understand. They were not the ones living through the hell that he would live in every time he went just a few hours without taking what he needed to take. That medication was his saving grace. It was the only thing that brought him peace. He had tried therapy, but it had not worked. He had tried working out or exercising, but those did not help either. He tried religion, but unfortunately, that did not work as well. Maybe the Moon god
Selena closed her eyes instinctively and it felt like…it felt like time had stopped. It felt like they had been shoved right off earth and were now in their own little world; a place where everything was perfect. Even if that would be just a few seconds. His lips were soft and cold at first until
It went quiet and everyone stopped. It was as if time had paused. Pain ran through the omega and she held her leg as she cried on the ground.Her knee had scraped badly and she was bleeding. The pain was high and as much as she just wanted to pretend like nothing was wrong, she could not. She was s
“Selena…?” The omega heard her name being called as she stood there, but it sounded distant. “Selena?” The person called out her name again, this time, touching her shoulder gently. When she turned to see, it was her mom. “Are you okay?” The woman asked her.Selena smiled sadly and blinked, more
The morning felt heavy, hungover—Maddox from drinking so much, Selena from all the pain last night. “Well, uh…thank you for letting me spend the night,” The alpha said as he flashed her a small smile. He had already dressed up.She nodded and then watched him leave the room. She was glad he had g
