“Sebastian!” | scream as | pull away and rush to his side the moment
he falls to his knees.
He’s bent over, a hand on his chest and from the groan that leaves his lips, | know he’s in a lot of pain.
| drop to my knees in front of him, my own heart thumping violently as | push him gently back and cup his face.
“Bas tien? Sebastian? Talk to me!” | whisper with urgency.
The wind around us is whipping faster and | brush his hair back. He's feeling so hot....
Has he over-exerted himself?
He opens his eyes which are blazing the colour of his wolf's and for a moment it’s like he’s unseeing, as he
stares vacantly ahead.
“Bastian?” | whisper.
He slowly frowns and looks atfor a second, before he topples forward, his head hitting my shoulder.
” Fuck.” He groans. | wrap my arms around him looking around the
gathering.
Jaj rushes over.
“Seb?”
He mumbles something incoherent before his body gives way completely, makingland on my behind with a

breasts, but before | can even move him, Jai pulls him back.
“I got him, Luna.” He murmurs as he hoists Sebastian's arm over his shoulder.
“Thank you, Jai, take them home.”
“I will go too.” Mom states.
“Fine...” | say. I'm not sure why she’s offering. She never really cared
for him.
She looks at Sebastian before her eyes meet mine, and she turns
away.
“Take him to the house,” Dad says the kids were safe with security and the housekeeper, but | think I'll be
happier when Jai will be there
too.
| look back at Atticus and Valerie. Valerie looks confused as she keeps looking at the sky where the symbol had
appeared.
What was that?
| feel strange too... almost as if I've been jump-started or something.
There’s more energy rippling through me.
The crowd is still staring in shock at the three of us, sin awe and others now look a little suspicious.
“What was that, Alpha Hugh?” someone asks, making the others fall silent.
“That was a miracle,” Dad replies as he observes the three of us.
Of course, he always entertained me, but to actually believe in such things is not his cup of tea... but we had all
seen it. We saw how it had appeared. It was beautiful... magical and mind-blowing.
We all saw the Triquetra symbol appear out of nowhere, no one can

deny that. There is no way someone could deny what is right before their eyes.
“It’s a trick! That's just not possible Are we being played?” someone says.
| frown slightly, looking over at the person who has spoken.
“This is not a play, but the truth,” | say.
“And what was that voice that said the something was completed? The tri... something,” another asks.
“The SublTriquetra.” Gaspard says quietly.
There goes my plan to weed out those who were leaning more to the Sable... my eyes meet Gaspard’s and
there's something within him that has changed.
“Yes... it seems | am part of the SublTriquetra...” | say hesitantly. | mean, how did that happen? | had a
choice, correct?”
He smiles slightly and lowers his head. “Your heart chose,” he replies before he glances into the trees.
There's something off about him...

“What exactly do you mean, chose?” Valerie asked.
“There are two Triquetras, each one chosen to handle the wrongs of our people in different ways,” | explain.
“Meaning, the Sublime, - us, will teach people of our goddess, our roots and aim to reconnect with our wolf
spirits. And then, there's the Sable Triquetra? They will destroy us all and leave only a handful of devout
believers to rekindle our race. Alpha Zaia could have chosen either of the two paths and she has chosen the path
of kindness and love.” Atticus says, his voice ringing in the air.
Everyone seems to let the words sink in and everyone seems to be

listening.
“But there is a problem,” Atticus says, now looking atbefore he steps forward so everyone can see him
properly.
A problem?
“What is it?” | ask.
“Although it is our duty to protect, help and show people the correct path, there are those who will want to
destroy us and the chance we are offering. Therefore, we need everyone to stay united, and it would be better if
everyone tries to connect with their wolves.”
| frown at Atticus’s words, my heart thundering.
“What do you mean?” | ask, how did he miss mentioning this part when he told me?
Sure, | know they are dangerous and wantgone, but now that the Triquetra is complete....
“I'm afraid, now that you have chosen your side, they will try to eliminate us all. They would have seen the
symbol... or the news would have gotten back to them.”
Fear rushes through those gathered, and | raise my hand.
