Priscilla, once vibrant and full of life, now carries the scars of a difficult past. The memories, like a bitter wind, constantly tempt her to retreat into solitude. She wonders if she'll ever escape the loneliness that has become her constant companion. Then, a flicker of hope. Fate, it seems, has a playful hand. Someone new enters her life, gently nudging at the walls she's built around her heart. This person offers a potential bridge back to the world she once knew, a world filled with the warmth of human connection. But will Priscilla be able to overcome her fear? Will she be able to dismantle the defenses she has put up, one by one? Will she be able to trust herself to open up to the new, to risk blooming again, even if it means facing the possibility of pain? The choice is hers: stay in the shadows or accept the promise of a new season, a season full of beauty and the possibility of love.

Chapter 1 Parents Death

"Hello? Nay? Tay? It's me, Priscilla! I'm home. I brought your favorite bread, remember?" Priscilla's voice echoed through the empty house, each unanswered ring twisting her stomach into knots. "Please answer, Nay? Tay?"

She sank onto the worn wooden bench by the door, fear prickling her skin. "They wouldn't just ignore me," she whispered, clutching the loaf of bread tightly. "Especially not when I brought their favorite..."

A flicker of suspicion ignited in her eyes. The townspeople. They'd been muttering about her parents lately, accusing them of all sorts of terrible things. "They wouldn't..." Priscilla shook her head, dismissing the thought. Her parents were good witches, healers and protectors, not the villains the townsfolk painted them to be.

But the doubt lingered. Who else could it be? The whispers of the bad black witches echoed in her mind, their jealousy of her parents' power, their constant attempts to undermine them. Could they have finally done something?

"Those wretched black witches," Priscilla muttered, her voice trembling with anger. "They've always resented us, ever since Nay and Tay started using their magic to help people. They couldn't stand seeing good witches thriving."

A memory surfaced, a heated argument in the coven, the black witches sneering at her parents, accusing them of defying the natural order. "You meddle where you don't belong!" one of them had a spat. "True magic is about power, not charity!"

Priscilla shuddered, the memory still chilling her to the bone. Her ancestors, powerful white witches, had always used their magic for good. It was in her blood.

Desperation clawed at her. She had to find her parents. With trembling hands, Priscilla lit the candles for the ancient locator spell, whispering the incantation under her breath. But the flames flickered and died, refusing to reveal her parents' location.

My name is Katia, and I am just trying to survive until my fated mate arrives. Which may be easier said than done. Rejectection is the last straw. Whispering my acceptance of his rejection. I run through the pack house, out across the manicured lawn into the forest. "I'm sorry, my sweet girl," I say to my wolf. I'm sorry you have been stuck with me and have had to suffer everything I have. She whispers," it's not your fault, Katia. We came to a cliff with a waterfall. The hurt keeps pounding at me. I need it to stop. My sweet girl, and I just want peace, I keep running and leap off the cliff. Spreading my arms wide, with tears streaming down my face, I fall, not making a sound, waiting for sweet oblivion where we feel nothing ever again. "I love you, my sweet girl! Until we meet again, "My wolf replied just before we hit the water, "I love you too, Katia. I have never regretted a moment with you." The Snow Moon pack is having their last barbecue of the summer next to the waterfall on their land. The adults are laughing and joking while watching the pups play. The alpha, beta, and gamma are swimming with some of the older children and playing a game of Marco Polo. Someone yells, "Oh my goddess, someone just jumped over the waterfall!" Everyone is frozen as they watch what looks to be a child falling arms spread wide, no one makes a sound. The small body hits the water like a plane crashing into the side of a mountain. The alpha, beta, and gamma, spring into action, swimming towards the area the person went under. The alpha is screaming his wolf is going crazy repeating, "Find her. Find her...find her!" They dive and the beta surfaces with a small person in his arms. Alpha takes the girl from his beta, laying her on the ground. The men are shocked by what they see. She is covered in scars and injuries. Her body is twisted and broken. The Beta asks, "Who could have done this to someone so defenseless?" Alpha drops to his knees, repeating, "MATE...MATE...MATE!"
