Alaric stepped closer, his form shimmering in the silver fog.Her sacrifice saved you.Saved shifters.Without her, there would be no awakening.But the cost...it was everything.You must make it mean something.
Isaac and Nolan lowered their heads in acknowledgement, shuddering as the weight of destiny sank in.Isaac whispered, “We’ll find her.Not just because she’s ours, but because she deserves to never be alone again.”
The vision faded, leaving them panting on the ruined floor of their lounge.They shifted back, gasping, sweat-slick and trembling but alive.Changed.Human only in form.Isaac’s voice was fierce, a promise more than words.“We’ll find her.Not just because she’s ours, but because this fight isn’t over.”
Nolan nodded, jaw tight.“Shifters are back.And we’re part of this war.We won’t let it slip away again.”
They clasped hands, two brothers bound by blood, fire and now fur.Above them, the night sky stretched vast, stars burning brighter than they ever had.
And somewhere across the city, Saffie stood alone, one eye green, one gold.The bond between them pulled taut across the dark, a promise that soon—very soon—they would find each other.
The End
