You look amazing
WINTER'S POVI quickly finished putting on the last piece of clothing: a blouse that Linda had chosen. Even though it exposed more than I was comfortable with, I could do nothing about it.A stern warning had been placed by her for my outfit not to be exchanged else, and she would sabotage wherever I was going.A knock interrupted my thoughts. Maybe the out wasn't that bad, but I hadn't intended to stroll around the packhouse revealing so much cleavage and stomach.Ignoring the persistent knocking, I headed towards the wardrobe, hoping for a change of clothes. However, nothing there caught my eye. Instead, a collection of underwear I didn't even realize I owned was scattered across the wardrobe, and a sticky note caught my attention at the bottom.Picking up the note, I read its contents: "Another warning because I know you'll come here, don't think about changing into something else. You're perfect just the way you are. PS: I packed away the rest of your clothes for this reason. I do

Tell me your story
RAFAEL'S POVIt felt crazy. Sitting next to Winter and eating in the woods—a spot I stumbled upon by chance—wasn't something I would have ever considered. It seemed unreal, and I almost wanted to pinch myself to check if I was in a dream.Yes, I did despise Winter, and that wasn't a lie. Yet, there was something else I felt when I was around her. Also, I wasn't here just because Kendall had told me to protect her; I wished to be here.The odd emotions I had been experiencing around her made me curious. I wanted to find out if they were real or if my mind had fabricated them."Hey," Winter nudged me, and I turned to look at her. She was gazing at me with a puzzled expression in her eyes. It's possible she had asked me a question, and I hadn't responded."You were staring off into the distance and clutching the mat," she said. "Are you having second thoughts?""No," I shook my head. "Why would I? After all, I was the one who made the decision, so I shouldn't have any regrets."Winter no

I don't make wishes
WINTER'S POVAs I waited for Rafael to begin his story, I found myself looking around. It had been quite a while since I ventured into these woods. Maybe I had come before and just couldn't recall. However, my memories were tainted by Slade's death in these woods, even though it wasn't the same area. That event made me avoid this place altogether.Admittedly, it might sound a bit silly and somewhat cowardly, but being here stirred up unwanted emotions. The overwhelming urge to destroy things, a feeling I often experienced here, was linked to those memories. It was one of the reasons I avoided this place; I knew that wrecking everything around me wouldn't bring Slade back.Yet, here I was now, and the usual turmoil I felt in these woods wasn't surfacing. The destructive impulse was absent, which felt strange. Talking to Rafael about Slade's story seemed like something I had recounted to people before, though I hadn't been able to share it with anyone for the past four months.I had al

I despise you
RAFAEL'S POVWishes.I stared at the sky longer than I wanted. I did make a wish, but I didn't want to tell Winter. Not because I thought it would make me seem girly like I said. I knew making a wish wasn't about gender. I was just trying to tease her, and it worked.Right now, she was glaring at the sky, which I think was better than telling her my wish. I hoped the goddess would grant the wishes, even though I never held her in high regard.Maybe, just this once, she would prove herself as the guardian she was known to be. I could not help but wonder about the wishes Winter made. I hope they were for her own interests. I want them to be. It was better if she was as selfish as I was. That was the only way she would stay alive."So…" Winter started, looking at me. "It's gone," she nodded toward the sky."I see," I replied with a nod."What else can we do? Do you have anything in mind?" She stood up and stretched a little.As she moved, her blouse rode up, revealing her bump.I clenche

None of your business
RAFAEL'S POVAfter ensuring Winter was well settled, I returned to the woods, my senses on high alert. I made certain no one was following me, not wanting to endanger anyone else. It was better for me to be in harm's way than someone else. I halted as my ears caught rustling nearby, and my nose twitched at the strange scent in the air.When I had been with Winter, I sensed something amiss, though I didn't detect the scent. Yet, alone now, it permeated the air, overwhelming my senses. Moving closer, I dashed silently to a large tree upon hearing voices approaching. I stood there, holding my breath and trying to mask my own scent.I dreaded being caught lurking, especially if they were a werewolf group. Facing them alone would be a daunting task. Judging by the voices, they numbered around ten or perhaps fewer. Attentively listening to their footsteps, I sighed in relief as they began to retreat.Peering cautiously, I saw them. My eyes widened at the sight before me. Instead of the prev

Provoke the worst in me
WINTER'S POVHow could he lie to my face so casually? Why was he being so secretive? It bothered me that he left for the woods again after clearly noticing something, yet refused to share it with me.Maybe I shouldn't care, but I couldn't shake the feeling. When it came to anything concerning Rafael, I felt like it was my concern, and I found myself unable not to care.Letting out a deep sigh, I raised my eyes to the sky, feeling the wind whip through my hair. The night sky was filled with dazzling stars, just like earlier this evening, but their beauty did nothing to ease the anger that consumed me. "I can't stand him right now," I muttered. "Why wouldn't he just tell me?""Would it really make you feel better if I did?" a voice interrupted.Surprised, I widened my eyes and turned to find Rafael standing there, his gaze distant. When did he get here without me noticing?"What are you doing out here? I thought you were heading to bed," Annoyance laced Rafael's words, although his expr

Legally bound
WINTER's POVThe morning sunlight filtered through the curtains, casting a soft golden glow that illuminated the room. I rolled in bed, reluctant to rise. I found comfort in staying under the covers, enjoying the leisure of a slow morning. Not being a morning person, it often felt like a nuisance to wake up early.My rolling abruptly ceased as I collided with someone. With a jolt, my eyes shot open, and I suppressed a startled scream upon realizing who it was.Rafael lounged on the bed, his chin propped up on his hand, his gaze fixed intently on me."How long have you been awake?" I frowned, my annoyance evident as he continued to stare, a hint of amusement playing on his lips."Long enough to know you mutter my name in your sleep and are quite enthusiastic about kicking," Rafael quipped, pulling up his shirt.My eyes widened as I spotted fading bruises on his skin."How do I know you didn't cause those bruises yourself? And I certainly don't mention your name in my sleep!" I countere

To eliminate them
WINTER'S POVI hurriedly freshened up and made my way to the meeting hall, where I knew I would find Jude. But he wasn't alone as I had expected. The room was filled with pack members, and Rafael was also present, which explained his absence from the room earlier.Approaching Rafael, I murmured, "Is it a good idea for you to be here?"He shrugged in response. "Jude wanted me here," he explained, causing me to give Jude a questioning glance.Jude merely shrugged and approached me. "Whether he's here or not, he'll still understand the main points," he remarked, to which I nodded.Indeed, it was true. Nothing discussed in the meeting hall remained a secret. In the Eclipse pack, however, they seemed quieter and less prone to spreading rumors.However, the reverse was the case in the Moon Stone pack. Rafael would find out whether he was present or not.Still, I had reservations about this idea. I believed Rafael hadn't yet mended his relationships with some members who had witnessed him at

They're coming for you
WINTER'S POVThe afternoon had come, but Rafael still hadn't returned.I discreetly questioned Jude and Kendall about his whereabouts, hoping for answers, but both seemed reluctant to provide any. My suspicions extended to them; it felt like they knew where he had gone but were keeping it from me.Back in the infirmary, Naomi remained unconscious, her breathing steady compared to the ragged state it had been in just hours before. Her temperature had returned to normal. I sat by her bedside, my gaze fixed on the fading wound on her body, unable to conceal the grimace that crossed my face. I held her hand, noting the coolness of her skin.Despite my efforts to uncover the nature of her attack and the assailant responsible, I came up empty-handed. Rafael hadn't disclosed the identity of the people he had seen. All he mentioned was that he had encountered them, people who seemed formidable enough to deter any attempt to challenge them. That might explain why he chose to retreat and return

Connected
WINTER POVI waited for Rafael for a good two days, hoping for his return.I prayed to the goddess to bring him safely to me.Yet, despite my hope, I received no word about his return or his return to his pack after I sent the last letter to Naomi. She informed me about her well-being and relayed all that had transpired. I didn't want to read too much into the symbols she described that she had seen before losing consciousness.Those symbols were pointing toward the Vordrak Lycans, but I couldn't be certain.I hadn't encountered anyone else with similar symbols on their heads, and now Rafael had gone after them. I often wondered if he ever second-guessed his decisions before acting."Are you really leaving?" Linda asked, staring at the bag I was currently stuffing my things in."Yes," I replied, packing the last of my clothing into the bag."And I can't change your mind?" she inquired once again."No, you can't," I answered. "Trying to stop me would mean you hate me. I can't let Rafae
