Raya’s POV I crashed into a hard chest, but I was still so stunned from the scene before me to turn and look at who I had just hit. Drusilla was bent over a massive dark wooden desk, her breast firmly pressed against its surface. Elliot was holding onto her braid tight as he pounded into her hard. It seemed violent and intense, and yet Drusilla seemed to be enjoying it through her medolic moans and screams. I knew I needed to leave, needed to look away before I was caught, but it was like a train wreck I couldn't pry my eyes away from. Whoever I bumped into must have gotten mad at my lack of attention, or apology, as they wrapped their arm around my waist from behind. To prevent me from making a sound, their other hand clasped over my mouth as they pulled me away from the scene that would forever be burned into my mind. I didn't struggle as I needed them to take me away, seeing as I had no self control. When we were far enough away, he put me down and turned me, letting me see the m

Raya’s POV Two days have passed since Blake had given me that blue liquid, although I found myself not needing it, as Elliot kept his distance. Not once had he visited me in my room, not that I’m complaining. I still eat dinner with them in their little separate dining room. Learning to keep my mouth shut, I didn’t want to push Elliot’s buttons by mistake. Now most of my days are spent annoying Blake in his room as he got permission for me to come when needed. Which, to me, meant an open invitation to join him whenever I wanted.  Hunter has been avoiding me since the day we spoke. It was odd, but after our encounter, I found that wolf names would suddenly pop into my head. I am not sure if these really are the name of their wolves as I can’t just ask the werewolves. My brain could just be spewing random names the way it has been for the people outside my

Raya’s POV Elliot had stormed out of the room with Dru following closely behind. I could feel her desperation from the hall. She wanted Elliot to change his mind and choose her. Hell, I wanted that too. The two deserve each other, but the thought of how all this is affecting Hunter broke my heart. He didn’t deserve to be tormented like this.  “Blake, you have to help me!” I urged him, letting all of my worry at once.  “How? That liquid isn’t going to do you any good once he’s marked you.” Blake’s somber expression let me know he would be of no use to me right now. He had a defeatist attitude, and that’s not what I needed. I needed someone willing to stand, to fight, to help me the hell out. “Help me find a way out,” I pleaded, feeling like my fate was seale

Dane's POV "Good, now do it again, but focus even harder. Really dig deep and feel what he's feeling," Barret instructed me, having continued our training. Apparently there are a total of 7 things I could do with the ability to control the moonlight.  Right now we were focused on the easier ones, this one being Lunar Empathy, as Bennett called it when he explained it to Garret and I last night. Lunar Empathy allowed us to understand and feel the emotions of other wolves using the moonlight to draw them out and feel it. With this you don't glow from within, it's more like you sense the power of the moon inside of them through their wolves. It was complicated to understand fully, but once we started putting it into practice it became clear.  I was trying to feel the emotions of a guard stationed outside t

Raya’s POVA shrill cry, unmistakably Blake's, reverberated in the air and pierced my soul. Adrenaline coursed through my veins, and I was off like lightning — feet moving before I could make sense of what was happening. My heart pounded in my ears as I raced back to Blake's side. He stared at me, eyes wide with shock, as if he couldn't believe I had made it back so quickly."Selene?" he whispered, unsure. "What? No, it's me." I furrowed my brow at him, wondering if maybe he'd hit his head. "Raya?" He sounded so surprised, like he would have never guessed it was me. "Of course. Who else?" My heart raced as I grabbed Blake's wrist, sprinting with
