His hands roamed over my body, rough and possessive, and I felt my own need spiral out of control. This was what I’d craved—the dark, unrelenting hunger that was as much a part of me now as it was of him. I moaned against his mouth, my fingers tangling in his hair as I pulled him closer, urging him on. His hands were frenzied, tearing at the fabric of my clothes, his eyes wild with a hunger that matched my own. The remnants of what I wore fell away, exposing me to the cool air, to his greedy gaze.…

The satisfaction of seeing these elders cower before us was almost enough to make me forget the horrors they'd inflicted. But the memories of their crimes were seared into my mind, and I knew they had to pay. Grayson's presence by my side was a silent promise of retaliation—we were in this together. The first elder took a step back, his eyes widening as he realized he had nowhere to go.

I strode back into Red Hallow, my heart still pounding with adrenaline from the battle. I felt changed—transformed by the darkness that now coursed through my veins.

But with each step forward, our skin knitted itself back together, and bruises faded to nothing. The quiet streets reflected the fear that gripped the town. As we passed,…

I sat in silence, the forest around me a dark, watchful presence. Leaning into Grayson’s side, my body still thrum with residual energy, but exhaustion weighed heavily on my limbs. I took a deep breath, letting the scent of earth and pine fill my lungs, grounding myself in the present moment. "I don’t know what’s going to happen when we face him," I admitted softly, breaking the silence. "But we’re going to finish this. One way or another." Grayson’s hand found mine, his fingers wrapping around…

I could sense his inner turmoil, the primal need to keep me safe warring with something darker and more possessive. His steps matched mine as we moved through the forest, his presence like a shield at my back. But it was his heart I heard pounding, his breath that rasped against my skin. The darkness within me stirred, urging me to push him, to see how far we could take this. I spun, suddenly wanting to confront the fear I saw lurking in his eyes.

I stumbled through the dense underbrush, my legs burning with each step. Grayson moved ahead of me, his massive form cutting a path through the foliage. The industrial site faded behind us, but the memory of our encounter with Cain lingered like a fresh wound. We emerged into a moonlit clearing, and I doubled over, gasping for air. My hands were slick with blood—mine or Grayson's, I couldn't tell anymore. The silver light cast long shadows across the grass, transforming Grayson's mask into something…

My breath hitched as Cain advanced slowly, savoring every step. "Can't… save… you," he murmured, voice rough and lethal. "Mine." Terror coursed through my veins, freezing me in place. I wanted to run, to scream, to fight back, but my body refused to obey. Cain's presence was overwhelming, a suffocating darkness that threatened to swallow me whole. Just as he lunged, a deafening crash erupted behind me. The metal grate exploded inward, and Grayson burst through, roaring with unbridled fury. He charged…

I gripped Grayson's hand tightly as we entered the abandoned industrial site. The air grew thick with the stench of rust and decay, mingling with an unmistakable coppery smell that made my stomach churn. Blood. Fresh blood. "She's here," I whispered, my voice barely audible over the creaking of metal and distant drips of water. Grayson's masked face turned slowly as he scanned our surroundings. We crept forward, our footsteps echoing in the cavernous space. Shadows danced at the edges of my vision,…

I stumbled out of the diner, the cool night air slapping me in the face like a harsh wake-up call. The town elders' words echoed in my mind, a chorus of doom and despair. I was changing, transforming into something dark and powerful, and there was no stopping it now. I could feel it, a restless energy coursing through my veins, begging for release. As I made my way back to the house, the world around me shifted. The night seemed darker, the shadows deeper, the sounds of the town sharper. I could hear…
