CLAIRE's POV As the days went by and I spent the time in my clan, I had assumed that I would get accustomed to the environment and become even more comfortable, but what I felt was the opposite. My discomfort grew with each passing day and I could not shake this uneasiness from my chest. My nights were spent alone, and I was completely overwhelmed by how lonely it was. I would often find myself, thinking about Dominik, every single night as I lay in bed, unable to sleep. I would wonder how he was and what he was doing at the moment. Did he also long for me, and miss me the same way I did? These questions probed my mind along with the thought of him. In addition to my uneasiness, there was this feeling of being watched. I felt it whenever I walked down the hallways with Bianca, and even when I lay in bed at night. I could not pin point the source, so I brushed it off as me being paranoid because of the discomfort and uneasiness I had been feeling lately. I blinked and broke away fro

CLAIRE's POVThe worried look on Luis’ face struck me with a lot of questions, as well as fill me with extreme worry. Luis was not the type to come to my bedroom, especially in the middle of the night, so I knew something was up.I gazed at him with worry in my eyes and spoke.“Of course, we can talk.”Luis looked around the hallway a bit frantically and peered into my room before turning his gaze to me.“Not here, let us talk in my room.” He said, a pleading look in my eyes.I turned to look at Bianca and saw that she was still fast asleep. I sighed and slipped out of my room, shutting the door as silently as possible behind me. Luis nodded and started down the hallway. I followed behind him carefully until we reached his room. Luis pushed open the door and held it for me. I walked in and I heard the door click softly behind me. I made myself comfortable on Luis’ small bed and my eyes began to wander around the room. Luis’ room was not as extravagant as mine. It was in fact the com

CLAIRE's POVThe ground shook like it was being attacked by an earthquake. I quickly grabbed unto the wooden frame of the bed to stop myself from falling to the ground. The sudden loud noise and the vibrations of the ground, put me in a state of distress and fear. I made a sharp turn to Luis and noticed that his eyes were fixed intently on the window. What was he looking at? As I opened my mouth to speak to him, he hurried to the window, despite the violent quake. Luis pried the window open with such a speed I had never seen before. As soon as the window flew open, the sounds of intense wailing and screaming caught my attention. I steadied myself and walked over to the window. The scene before me left me completely dumbfounded and in a state of utter shock.Enzo's clan was being ravished by attackers. Under the bright moonlight, I could see their fearful features. Most of them wore thick silver and bronze armour, clad from head to toe, holding large swords in their hands, which the

CLAIRE's POVI groaned and clutched my shoulder as more blood spilled from the wound. At this point, I feared that I would bleed out to death. "Claire!" I heard someone scream my name.I made a sharp turn in the direction of the voice, and my eyes fell on Luis. He ran up to me, his breath haggard and his face stained with blood."Are you hurt anywhere?" I asked as my eyes frantically scanned his body from heard to toe."I am fine, this blood is not mine," he replied with a nod.I let out a sigh of relief and actually felt stupid for worrying about him. I watched his eyes trail down to my shoulder and he frowned."I should be asking you the same question. Are you alright?"I grimaced and moved my hand aside. Luis went solemn as he gazed at the injury. He quickly sheathed his sword and walked closer to me. I watched him rip a piece of his clothing and he held the torn piece up to my face."Hold still, we need to stop the bleeding or you might die."I swallowed and nodded. Luis began t

CLAIRE's POVAs I trudged down the hallway, I was slowly hit with the awful reality of everything that unfolded in alpha Enzo's study. The reality hit me like a blow, and I could feel my heart sinking to the darkest and deepest depths.I let out a shaky breath and trudged down the hallway further. I was still dumbfounded by Enzo's statement. How exactly had he found out that I had used my powers and how did he know that I joined in the battle? A lot of things were not adding up, but i could not quite lay my finger on it.But what did this mean for me? In order to keep my identity a secret, I had to lie to Enzo. Was he going to kick me out of the clan since he did not believe me? Or worse, execute me for being a hybrid? I swallowed at the thought. It was not quite far fetched seeing how angry he was. A chill ran down my spine, the moment I recalled the hot blazing glare in his eyes as he looked at me. It was fierce and for once, I was convinced that Enzo would hurt me.I walked down t
