Chapter Thirty-One -Raven

The barn smells like dust, old wood, and the faint metallic tang of magic.For days I’ve been buried in books, runes, sigils, potion theory, spell structure, Warren history. My brain feels like it’s leaking out of my ears. But today? Today is different. Today I finally get to do something.Liam and Noah have transformed the barn into a makeshift training range. Targets line the far wall, some wooden, some metal, some enchanted to move. A table is set up with jars, herbs, vials, and a cauldron that looks like it’s seen better centuries.Noah stands beside me, arms crossed, trying to look calm. He’s not. I can feel the tension rolling off him through our bond, warm, protective, steady.Grace hands me a small vial filled with shimmering blue liquid. “Focus potion. Just a sip. It’ll help channel your magic without overwhelming you.”I take a breath and drink. It tastes like mint and lightning.L

Chapter Thirty-Two -Noah/Emily

Raven doesn’t see it. She doesn’t see how fast she’s changing. How quickly her magic is waking up. How every spell she touches bends to her like it’s been waiting for her all along.But I see it. I feel it. And it scares the hell out of me. Not because she’s dangerous...she’s not. But because she’s running out of time, and she doesn’t even realize how close she is to the edge.She’s a natural. A prodigy. A Warren heir in every sense.And she has no idea.I watch her from the doorway as she grinds moonflower petals into powder, her brow furrowed in concentration. Mom stands beside her, guiding her through the steps of the tracking potion. Raven’s hands move with a confidence she didn’t have even yesterday.She’s learning too fast.Or maybe… not fast enough.Dad steps up beside me, arms crossed. “She’s doing well.”“She’s

Chapter Thirty-Three -Raven

Emily’s emotions slam into me so hard I nearly drop the vial. Hope. Fear. Running.It’s all tangled together, sharp and bright and overwhelming. My breath catches, and the barn tilts for a second.Noah is at my side instantly. “Raven...hey...slow down. What’s happening?”I grip the edge of the table, knuckles white. “She’s moving. She’s… she’s trying to get away.”Grace’s eyes widen. “Then we need that tracker potion finished.”“I know,” I snap, more at myself than anyone else. “I’m trying.” The second the words leave my mouth, guilt hits me like a punch.I close my eyes. “I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to snap at you. I’m just...” My voice cracks. “I’m snapping at myself. I should’ve gotten this right by now.”I force my shaking hands to steady and lift the vial again. The

Chapter Thirty-Four -Emily

The moment Delaney broke the spell, the world snapped into motion. I shifted before I could think, bones bending, magic rushing through me like fire and ice. My paws hit the dirt floor, and I bolted up the stairs, slipping through the half‑broken door and into the night. The woods swallowed me whole.As a cat, I moved faster than I ever could on two legs. Branches whipped past me. Roots blurred beneath me. The cold air burned my lungs, but I didn’t stop. I couldn’t stop. I didn’t know where I was, Jason’s hideout was deeper in the forest than I’d ever been, but instinct pushed me forward. Away. Away. Away.Get to Raven. Get home.But the spell Delaney broke was temporary. And I felt it the moment it snapped back. Pain tore through me, sharp, blinding, wrong. My body jerked mid‑stride, magic ripping me out of my cat form and slamming me back into human skin. I collapsed onto the forest floor, gasping. It hurt worse than anyt

Chapter Thirty-Five -Raven

The woods blur around us as we run. Branches whip past my face. My lungs burn. My legs ache. But none of it matters, Emily is beside me, stumbling, terrified, barely staying upright. Noah keeps a hand on her back, guiding her forward.Behind us, Jason crashes through the trees like a storm. Too close. Too fast. Too angry. I can feel his magic pressing against mine, dark, heavy, suffocating. Emily’s bond pulses with fear, and it pushes me harder.“Keep going!” Noah shouts.I don’t need him to tell me twice. We sprint through the underbrush, feet pounding the earth. Emily trips, and I grab her arm, pulling her up before she hits the ground. Then...a low growl cuts through the night. A dog bursts out of the shadows, barking furiously, teeth bared but not at us, but at Jason. He charges past us, planting himself between us and the danger like a living shield.Emily

Chapter Thirty-Six -Jason

The cabin door slams behind me, rattling the frame. My chest burns where Raven’s magic hit me, a raw, electric ache that refuses to fade. I grit my teeth and steady myself against the wall until the dizziness stops. Energy balls. From a girl who barely knows how to hold a spell. Unacceptable.I pace the room, boots thudding against the warped floorboards. Emily escaped. Raven interfered. Noah was there. And the search‑and‑rescue team ruined everything.My plans are unraveling. The Hallow needs souls, now, and I’m running out of time. Drake should have been taken weeks ago. Emily should have been next. But Drake is still alive. Still breathing. Still resisting. I slam my fist onto the table, candles toppling.Delaney.She has to be doing something. Twisting the spells. Weakening the rituals. Sabotaging me from the inside. But how? She only has access to the spells I allow. The ingredients I give her. The magic I permit. She shouldn&rsq

Chapter Thirty-Seven -Raven

I don’t remember falling asleep. One moment I’m slumped against Noah in the backseat, Emily curled up between Liam and Grace, the world spinning softly around the edges…and the next...I’m somewhere else. Somewhere cold. Somewhere wrong. The air smells like damp wood and old magic. Shadows cling to the walls like they’re alive. I know this place even though I’ve never been here. Jason’s cabin. My stomach twists.I hear footsteps, heavy, angry, and then Jason bursts through the door, slamming it behind him so hard the frame shudders. His aura is a storm, dark and violent, still crackling with the magic I hit him with. He’s furious. He’s hurting. And he’s blaming her.“Delaney!” he roars, voice echoing through the cabin. My heart lurches. Mom. I’m pulled downward, like something is dragging me through the floorboards. Suddenly I’m in the basement, watching him tower over her. She’s slumped against the wall, wrists bound, but her eyes… her eyes are steady. Defiant.

Chapter Thirty-Eight -Noah

Three days. That’s how long it’s been since we found Emily in the woods. Three days since Raven nearly burned herself out. Three days since she told us about the vision of Jason, the cabin, Delaney, and the man wearing Brad Moore’s face.And now we’re four days from Raven’s birthday. Four days from Halloween. Four days from her powers fully awakening… and from her learning the truth about us, about our true bond. The air feels heavier every hour we get closer. School Isn’t Helping at all. Emily hasn’t come back yet. Grace insisted she stay home until she’s steady again. But the town? The town is doing what it always does. Whispering. Speculating. Blaming. I hear it the second I walk into school.“Emily and Raven faked the whole thing.”“Drake’s still missing...they know something.”“Things have been weird since she got here.”Raven walks beside me, hood up, shoulders tight. She hears every word. I can feel it through the bond.

Chapter Thirty-Nine -Jason

Brad, my little brother, shouldn’t be alive. He shouldn’t be standing in my cabin, breathing my air, looking at me with those same sharp eyes he had when we were kids, only darker now, hollowed out, wrong.He shouldn’t be here because I killed him. And because after I killed him, they cremated him. I made sure of it. So how the hell is he standing in front of me?He steps closer, boots silent on the warped floorboards. The candlelight flickers across his face, carving shadows into features I used to know. “You’re staring,” he says, voice low, amused. “Still trying to figure it out?”My jaw tightens. “You’re dead.”He smiles. “I was.” The Hallow stirs in the walls, humming like it recognizes him. Like it’s greeting an old friend. A chill crawls up my spine.“What are you?” I demand.Brad tilts his head, studying me the way a predator studies prey.

Chapter Forty -Raven

Something is wrong with me. Or maybe… something is waking up. I can’t tell the difference anymore.It’s three days until my birthday. Three days until Halloween. Three days until everything changes — even if I don’t fully understand what “everything” means yet. But my magic knows. It’s acting strange. Buzzing under my skin. Sparking when I’m emotional. Pulling toward things I don’t understand. And worst of all? It keeps dragging me toward Noah.It started yesterday. Every time he walked into a room, my magic… reacted. Like a warm hum in my chest. Like a magnet snapping into place. Like something inside me recognized him before my brain did. It’s wrong. It’s weird. It’s confusing. But it feels right in a way that scares me.Today it’s worse. I can’t focus in class. I can’t breathe when he’s too close. I can’t think straight when he looks at me with
