Enzo’s POV
This portrait was supposed to be a gift to my mother, and she used it for her art project. Was this her
plan this whole time? Did she ever intend to give this portrait back to me?
How could she think this was okay?
Now everyone was going to think I gave her special favors.
The look Miss Grace was giving me was of concern; it was clear she had no idea that I was blindsided
like this.
If I told her the truth, then Lila would get in trouble, and she would fail this class.
Painting meant a lot to her as an Art major.
I couldn’t take that away from her.
“Oh yes,” I said, taking a step away from the painting. “I forgot she painted that. It was a while ago.
Good for her though for getting a good grade.”
Miss Grace rose her brows.
“So, you really did permit her to use this painting as her project? You’re okay with this?”
“I don’t think Lila is the type to lie, do you? I’ve only been her professor for a short time, but she seems
like a good student. I’m glad she looks up to me as not only her professor but an Alpha too.”
Miss Grace seemed to have relaxed at my words, which was exactly my goal.
“I should get going though. Thank you for informing me of this,” I said as I turned away and walked
toward the door.
“Be gentle on our mate,” Max warned. “There might be an explanation.”
“Whatever this explanation is… it better be good.”

Lila’s POV
“Lila? Are you okay?” Rachel asked, peering over at me as I leaned against the wall.

I was suddenly feeling incredibly dizzy. My heart was racing quickly in my chest.
It’s been a couple of hours since the trial ended, and Sarah had just left the campus with her father. I
didn’t eat or drink anything all night, so maybe that was why I was feeling sick.
I swallowed the lump that had formed in my throat and reached for the nearby chair. We were in the
student lounge and students were beginning to fill the area.
Rachel helped me get to a seat; I could see the concern in her eyes as she sat next to me.
“Just breathe,” she coached. “What got you feeling this way? You were fine a few minutes ago?”
“I’m not sure,” I said, shaking my head and trying to get my thoughts clear. I just felt like I had this
overwhelming sensation lurking inside of me, begging to be released.
But how could I explain that to Rachel?
“Could it be the full moon?” She asked, I raised my brows and met her eyes. “I know that can affect a
werewolf. This is your first full moon as a full wolf. Maybe you’re having a reaction to it.”
“It makes sense,” Val agreed. “Perhaps it’s our Volana abilities surfacing and building up.”
Oh no.
Could it be because I’m a Volana?
What did that even intel?
Before I could ask my wolf any questions, I started to feel electricity jolting from my fingertips. I gasped,
hiding my hands behind my back before Rachel had the chance to see them as well. I tried not to look
like I was in pain, but the electricity was powerful against my flesh.
This wasn’t good.
If I couldn’t control my powers in this lounge, that meant that everybody in here was going to be in
danger.
“I have to go,” I said quickly; I stood up, startling Rachel.
“We just got here…”
“I’m sorry,” I said as I ran toward the exit. “I’ll see you later!”
I knew she was calling after me, but I was long gone and I wasn’t planning on stopping.

Third Person POV
Back in Elysium, in the Nova Packhouse, Selene finished cooking dinner for her twin children. It was only
the three of them this evening.
Bastien was spending the night in Higala. It wasn’t often that Selene got to spend this much time alone
with her other children, so she made it a point to make their favorite foods for a small feast.
They both seemed to enjoy it because they gobbled it up quickly.
The twins, Corrine, and Flynn named after Selene’s mother, and Bastien’s best friend, who sadly passed
away, were splitting images of Bastien. They both had the same beachy blonde hair and blue eyes. It
made Selene smile looking between the two of them.
She was proud of all her children.
Lila was working on her career as an artist; she also has a strong goal of protecting Volana wolves from
those who wish them danger. She’s been learning to strengthen her combat skills even though she’s
already so good at it.
Pretty soon, she will have to work to strengthen her Volana abilities as well.
The world is still such a scary place for Volana to lurk. Blaise still has men that support him long after his
death. They wish to cause harm to Volanas, and it makes Selene much more worried for Lila’s safety.
But she also knows that Lila can handle her own.
Flynn has been working hard to follow in his father’s footsteps. He’s going to be the next Alpha once
Bastien retires.
