ABBY{Tuesday, 4 days after the blood moon}The sheriff’s wife and daughter were sitting by my bed when I opened my eyes. The sheriff was standing by the window. And the ray of light that entered through the curtain when he opened it was what woke me up.“Good morning, Abby,” his wife said as she handed me a glass of water.His daughter stared at me keenly as I took the glass and drank from it. “What’s happening?” I asked, feeling uneasy about how they stared at me. “I don't remember falling asleep. How did I even get here? Last I remember, I was on the stairs.”“Please give us a moment,” the sheriff said to his wife as he kissed her forehead. “Of course,” she smiled weakly and left the room with their daughter.“When I saw you,” the sheriff said. “You were above the ground and gasping for air. I was terrified… I didn’t know what to do... But when I held you and brought you down, you kept mentioning Anthony Gordon. So, I need to tell me what that was about.”I felt the sharp pain at

ABBY{Tuesday, 4 days after the blood moon}Blake left the school before the teachers could enter the cafeteria. The boys from the football team took Trevor to Lockwood General Hospital. And the sheriff came to the school to pick me up because Jasmine called him to say I was having a concussion. I wasn’t.“Did you see Anthony again?” The sheriff asked as I entered the front passenger seat of his car, and Jasmine got in the back.“Yes,” I said. “It was worse this time. I think he might be close to Lockwood. We need to do something about him.”“Xavier is at the station waiting for us,” the sheriff said. “But before we get there, what happened between Blake and Trevor? I heard Trevor was messed up pretty bad.”“Trevor claimed he knew something about Blake,” I sighed. “And Blake didn’t want me to hear about it. So, they got into a fight.”“I don’t understand how you don’t see Blake as a bad influence,” the sheriff scoffed. “I don’t understand how you don’t see him as a bad person in gener

ABBY{Tuesday, 4 days after the blood moon} The sheriff seemed restless as Xavier left the station. He kept pacing around his office and scratching his head as he thought to himself. “Don’t you think it’s kind of weird?” The sheriff asked. “They want you to be Alpha all of a sudden. But they also think you need five days of training. If they felt you weren’t fit, why did they consider you in the first place?”“And why can’t the pack protect you until you become Alpha?” Jasmine added. “Unless there’s some underlying factor. Something they haven’t told you yet.”“Well, if they intend to use me,” I said. “I intend to use them as well. Once we defeat Mr. Gordon and end Project Jericho, I’ll tell them I don’t want to be Alpha anymore.”“Don’t you think the Alpha proposal might be connected to Project Jericho somehow?” The sheriff asked. “The suddenness of everything is uncanny.”“But you’re the one who told me to accept the Alpha proposal, remember?” I asked. “And you’re the one who aske

ASHLEY {Tuesday, 4 days after the blood moon}West view… The air felt different from the air in Lockwood. The silence was so peaceful. The views were magical. The people were almost invisible because they knew how to mind their business. The rowdiness we met when I came to Westview the last time was not how it was when we arrived last night. The festival was over and everyone retired to their homes, it seemed like a ghost town. Unlike Lockwood, you could barely see someone walking on the streets. I finally had time to cover my face with a pillow and cry as I woke up. I couldn't cry about Tiffany's death before Abby because it seemed unfair to her. She already felt guilty about Tiffany's death, and my tears would've worsened it. But Tiff was my best friend. It shattered my heart to accept the reality of her death. “Hey, Ash. Are you okay?” My mom asked as she entered the room. “I'm fine-- it's just-- jus--- I'm…” I broke down in tears before I could finish the sentence.She sat

MOLLY{Sunday, Two days after the blood moon}…. “Till we meet again, Molly Lancaster,” Abby said as she turned to walk away.I smiled as she nodded for the last time and waved before entering the sheriff's car. And even though I said, “Till we meet again” It was more of a goodbye for me because I never wanted to return to Lockwood. And even though I didn't blame or hate Abby and her sister for anything that happened, I knew it was better to not see them again. “Hey, Molly,” Henry Luther said as he walked toward me in the sheriff's kitchen. “I didn't get a chance to thank you for everything, and to say how sorry I am for your loss.”“It's okay, chief,” I grinned. “We did what we had to do.”He smiled and patted my shoulder. “So, where are you going now?” he asked.“Far away from you,” I grinned.He opened his mouth to say something, but just nodded and walked away. I knew he wanted to show how sorry he was for Kelvin's death, and I knew how badly he wanted to make me feel better.

TREVOR{Tuesday, 4 days after the blood moon}I woke up hours before my alarm clock started ringing because Tiffany’s face kept appearing whenever I closed my eyes. I thought about the blood moon and everything that happened before and after it, but I could never justify Tiffany’s death. She didn’t deserve it. Yes, I knew it wasn’t Abby’s intention, nor was it her fault. But whenever something bad happens, someone has to take the blame, and Abby was the most reasonable person to blame at the time. She was the reason we were at Westview in the first place, she was the one Tiffany wanted to save, and she was the one who put the sword through Tiffany’s stomach that killed her. I knew I was being too hard on Abby with the way I spoke to her, but I couldn’t get over the fact that Tiffany was dead. And carrying her lifeless body out of Jericho’s base was the worst moment of my life. Even though I knew Abby must’ve felt horrible about her death, I didn’t have anyone else to pour out m

ABBY{Tuesday, 4 days after the blood moon}I wasn't as frightened as I expected to be when I saw Mr. Gordon standing in front of the car with his fists tightly clenched. Even though he had an intense look in his eyes as he glared at me through the windshield, I didn't cower away and instead looked back at him with confidence.Maybe it was due to the warning texts I had received or because Mr. Gordon had been showing up repeatedly over the past few days, but I didn't show even a hint of fear when he confronted me.In a way, I was relieved that he had finally come to meet me, even though I was unsure about what to do next.Xavier turned on the car and asked, "Who's that?" before Anthony Gordon lunged at the hood and shattered the windshield with his fist. With a smirk, he said, "Abby Luther. Get out of the car and come with me. I'd rather not have to pull you out myself."I desperately wanted Xavier to just drive away and avoid any further conflict with Anthony Gordon. But before I c

ABBY{Tuesday, 4 days after the blood moon}How it felt to become a wolf was still surreal to me and hard to explain.Bones shifting and restructuring, muscles tearing and expanding, joins readjusting and thickening. My nails turned into claws, teeth became fangs, fur appeared on my skin, and my hunger for meat heightened. How do I explain that I felt like a stranger in my body? Being a werewolf made me feel like I was harboring a wolf inside me that sometimes controlled my actions. But when I turned into a wolf, it felt like I was the one in the wolf's body struggling to control it.Xavier wasn’t fazed as I pinned him to the ground, and the smug look on his face made it clear that he was expecting me to react the way I did. “Well done, Abby,” he grinned as I stepped back. “You’ve successfully connected with your inner wolf. Even without a full moon.”I stared at my arm as the fur shrunk until I could see my skin again, and the claws retracted. I felt my bones readjust as I stood,
