Becca POVI lay on my back, staring up at the ceiling, the weight of Ravi's words echoing in my mind, refusing to let me find any peace or sleep. Why did we always have to fight? I wished he could just understand me. And then there was Bas, disappearing again without a word, ignoring my texts. I reached for my phone, hoping for a message from him, but there was nothing. I could lie in bed all day, but I had promised to see Lola today, so reluctantly, I dragged myself up, forcing myself to shower and get dressed. As I looked at my reflection in the mirror, I couldn't help but feel like a mess—both inside and out. My hair was a tangled mess, so I pulled it back into a messy ponytail, and I attempted to cover up the bags under my eyes with a bit of makeup. "You'll be fine," I whispered to myself, forcing a fake smile as I tried to convince myself that everything would be okay."Hey, you!" Lola's voice echoed with excitement as she waved at me from across the parking lot. I returned the g

Becca POVBy the time we woke up, Lola was gone, leaving behind an empty space that weighed heavily on my heart."This is all my fault," I murmuredRavi's hand found my shoulder, offering silent support. "Hey, you did what you thought was right. Lola just needs some time to process it all," he reassured me, his voice gentle and understanding.Despite his comforting words, I couldn't shake the feeling of guilt gnawing at me."We should get going," Ravi suggested, breaking the heavy silence that hung between us.As we arrived at my apartment, Ravi turned to look at me, his expression serious yet determined."I'll talk to Naomi about it," he declared."As much as I despise Bas, if there's a way to stop whatever prophecy, I'm willing to do it. I want nothing more than for you to be happy, Becks," he said earnestly.Moved by his sentiment, I wrapped my arms around him in a tight hug, feeling the warmth of his embrace enveloping me like a protective shield."Thank you," I whispered, my voic

Becca's POVThe sunlight filtered through Bas’s curtains, casting a gentle brightness into the room. I blinked my eyes open slowly, feeling Bas’s hands wrapped around my waist and the comforting rhythm of his breathing.Carefully, I slipped out of bed, trying not to disturb him as I made my way out of his room. In the kitchen, I poured myself a glass of water. As the water flowed done my throat memories of the previous night filled my mind especially Lola finding out about the truth. I felt guilty for not telling her but if only she knew the reason why.UgggghI hated when we foughtJust then, my phone beeped. I hoped it was Lola, but it was a message from Ravi instead. My heart raced with anticipation as I opened it, hoping for good news.

Becca POVENOUGH!!!Naomi’s scream pierced the tense atmosphere, reverberating off the walls of the room. I spun around to see her standing with her arm outstretched towards Bas, her eyes now completely white as she chanted a certain word with intensity.“Aethralis,” she uttered firmly, her voice echoing with power.Suddenly, Bas released his grip on Ravi, dropping to one knee. His hands flew to his temples, his face contorted in agony as if experiencing an unbearable pain. I could see the strain etched on his features, his muscles tensed as he winced and groaned.“I told you,” he managed to say through gritted teeth, his voice strained with pain.Naomi took a determined step forward, her jaw set as she began chanting the ancient words “Aethralis, Aethralis,” her voice filled with power.My heart raced as I watched Bas fall to his knees, his face contorted in agony, blood streaming from his nose.“No… please stop,” I pleaded, my voice shaking with fear and desperation, but Naomi see

Becca's POV Naomi gently tossed on the bed, her eyelids fluttering as she slowly regained consciousness. I watched as Ravi moved to her side, his expression filled with concern. “Hey, love,” he said softly, his eyes locking with hers. Naomi managed a small smile, but her body tensed when she noticed Bas in the room. “What… what is he doing here?” Naomi’s voice trembled with alarm as she struggled to sit up. “Naomi, please calm down. He isn’t going to hurt you,” I reassured her, stepping closer to her and positioning myself between her and Bas. “He’s a monster, that’s what they do…hurt innocent people,” she replied, her voice quivering with fear as she glanced nervously at Bas. “No, he’s not. He wants to help us find a way to put an end to the prophecy so humans can finally be free from werewolves. And the only way that can happen is if you help us,” I explained, trying to reassure her. “This wasn’t supposed to happen. My father sacrificed his life for me so I could fina

Bas POV“Look who decided to grace their old man with his presence,” my father greeted, his voice echoing through the halls of the pack house.I approached him, feeling a mix of nerves and apprehension. “Father,” I replied, trying to sound calm.“I almost thought you were angry with me,” he said, his expression softening as he looked at me.I forced a smile. “Never. I had to deal with some stuffs.”He nodded, his eyes searching mine. “I hope there’s nothing to worry about.”I shook my head, trying to appear confident. “Nothing that I can’t take care of.”He studied me carefully like he was hoping to see me crack , then finally he said. “Great, come walk with me, son.”We began to stroll down the pathway, the silence between us thick and heavy. Only the sound of our footsteps broke the quiet, each step echoing in the empty halls. The last thing I wanted was to see my father, but when I got a message from Austin that my father had become suspicious of me, I knew I had to come. I couldn’

I found myself staring at the clock, its ticking growing louder with each passing second. My legs tapped nervously against the floor, the rhythm betraying my anxiety. Bas had promised to be here, but there was still no sign of him.Frustration bubbled up inside me as I tried calling him again, but my attempts were met with silence. Each ring felt like an eternity, and the absence of his voice only heightened my unease."Ughhh," I groaned, running a hand through my hair.We had to get the belladonna flower tonight because, in a few hours, it would be my 21st birthday, and they would come for me. Now was the perfect time. Bas knew we had limited time, so why hadn't he shown up?Frustration surged through me. If he wasn't going to come, I'd have to get it myself. Taking a deep breath, I stood up and walked out of my apartment, my mind racing with determination.As I opened the door, my eyes widened in surprise. Ravi was standing there, his expression a mix of concern and urgency."Hey, w

I slowly opened my eyes, my breaths coming in shallow gasps as I tried to understand where we were. The room was dim, shadows dancing on the walls, making it hard to pinpoint our exact location. I tried to move, but my body felt too weak. The sharp sting of ropes wrapped tightly around my wrists reminded me of my helpless state as I sat on a hard, wooden chair. Suddenly, I heard a soft, familiar groan. "Ravi?" I called out, my voice barely a whisper. "Y...yeah," he responded weakly from somewhere nearby. "Are you okay?" I asked, my voice trembling with fear. "I...I'm fine," he replied, though his voice didn't sound convincing. Just then, the door creaked open, and I heard footsteps approaching. My heart pounded in my chest as the figure drew nearer. When the light finally revealed his face, my anger flared up. "You," I spat through gritted teeth, glaring at Joe standing in front of me with a smug smirk plastered across his face. Joe's smirk widened, clearly enjoying the power
