She reached out a hand to Bruce and said, "I thought I was your mate."

Bruce turned his back on her and scratched at his eyes. Silvana could feel the pressures he was facing and only wanted to help.

"I think we're stronger than the obstacles around us," Silvana said, her voice distorted by sobs.

"As much as I want to be with you, Silvana, we need to end this for your safety."
Silvana watched the rain turn the grass under her feet muddy.

"Is that really how you feel?" she asked.

But before Bruce could offer his heart's secrets to the woman he loved, crimson lightning struck between the two of them. Silvana and Bruce blasted backwards and tumbled into the mud.

Standng before them was a red, cackling spirit made of lightning. She wore wolfskin clothes and waved a hand.

Scalret lightning wolves howled, then attacked Bruce and Silvana.

My Loyal Alpha

Silvana banged on Bruce’s front door.


The lights were off in the house, and she shouted, “Bruce?! Kurt? Please open up. It’s me.”


Tears laced her eyes, and as she continued to pound her fist to the door, she clenched her father’s mysterious journal with her other hand. 


If what she had read was true, then she didn’t have much time.


After knocking on the front door and throwing stones at each window of the dark house, Silvana crumpled to the grassy floor beside dead leaves, and she cried loudly to herself, grasping her father’s journal and screaming out in despair.


She called Bruce, then Amelia, both over and over, until she had no battery left, and her phone simply died.
