## Synopsis

### Ch 1 - CHARLIE

Charlie returns to his bunk after a round of drills. While his roommates complain, Aisha reminds them that they are going through all of this to protect the world from supernaturals. He realizes that he wishes he could share this experience with Violet, and the conversation drifts to what it would be like to stake a vampire. The others comment on movie scenarios when Charlie tells them that they turn to dust. He realizes that he’s the only one of them to actually have fought vampires and that he had to be careful what he says or risk giving too much info up. He tries to answer their questions and realizes Aisha starts to get ready to go out. He asks where she’s going and she tells them she met a third year, which surprises him because he thought the camp was for hunter training. Reggie tells him that his two older brothers went through training and told him stories how an orgy almost went down once. He starts to think of Violet again and wants to turn in but Zachery and Reggie insist on staying up. He tells Zachery that he broke up with Sandi and that he met someone else. They mention family and friends meeting and wanting to meet her, and decide to go to sleep. Suddenly, he’s awakened by someone shining a flashlight in his face and screaming of what he’s made of.

### Ch 2 - CALI

Big Mac continues to blame Cali for not allowing her to deal with Artemis as she should as well as Greyson for indulging Cali instead of protecting the pack. Cali admits she doesn’t trust Big Mac to do things right; that she is more concerned about the Orb than Artemis herself. Marta and Big Mac insist that she is enabling Artemis and whatever is happening to her will kill her before they can ever take care of it. Big Mac tells Cali she doesn’t trust her to handle anything and Sage voices her concern that they can’t allow Artemis a free pass, which Jay seconds. Greyson clears the room leaving him, Cali, and Artemis. He tells Cali that he’s decided to keep Artemis under watch with pack members guarding her. Cali tries to argue that Artemis is not an animal but Greyson reasons that she’s a harm to others and herself. Greyson asks how she plans on fixing Artemis when she gets a text from Xavier with the charm recipe Kira had promised. Rishika shows up and asks to see Artemis, and Greyson gives Cali the chance to do the charm with Rishika watching. However if it fails Artemis has to be locked up. Cali tells Rishika that Greyson agreed to have Rishika be responsible for Artemis while she tries to gather the ingredients for the charm. She decides to sneak into Big Macs room to get the supplies while she was occupied in an argument with Greyson. She finds Big Macs bag and stuffs her pockets with the herbs when she realizes Mrs. Smith is also in the room watching her.

### Ch 3 - XAVIER

Xavier is awakened from his nap by Kira who reports they just made it to Spokane. He tells her to drive around places tourists don’t go since that’s where The Blood Moons tend to hang out. He reminds her to get herself together for worry of their situation and wonders if he should have made this a solo trip. Soon Xavier scents werewolves and death and tells Kira to pull over. He follows the scent to a venom den. As they search the club, Kira suddenly spots Garren.

### Ch 4 - MARTA

Marta is in the kitchen waiting for Mrs. Smith to return with a blanket. Lilac tries to comfort her and they talk about how he still has his wolf as a ghost. Violet interrupts them and fussed over her. She asks where Lilac was during the whole ordeal, and Marta assured that he was always by her side, helping her. This surprises Violet and she tells Marta if she wants to leave the pack house she has her back. She goes off to answer a phone call when Big Mac comes to check in on her. She asks Marta to explain what happened, which makes Big Mac realize that the spirits are looking out for Marta. She explains that Bert drained her powers so that she was never able to fully control them. She then asks Marta if it’s possible if she is the one bringing the revenants over, which makes her realize she could be the reason everyone is in danger.

### Ch 5 - CALI

Cali lies to Mrs. Smith about looking for her to talk about Greyson. But, she’s a bad liar and admits about taking the supplies. She asks if she’s going to tell Big Mac but Mrs. Smith offers to help her instead because she’s worried of the witch fixating. She explains that Silas used to be her fixation and now that he’s gone she might be replacing Artemis. She reminds Cali that the charm is not Fae magic and wishes her luck. She returns to find Artemis asleep and fills Rishika in on the plan, realizing that Rishika really cares for Artemis. She goes to brew a potion and runs into Big Mac, but it’s a brief encounter. She goes to the kitchen and realizes that brewing is a lot like cooking, which she’s not good at. In the middle of the recipe, Greyson appears, naked.

### Ch 6 - GREYSON

Greyson knew what he was doing to Cali and loved every second of it. She asks why he’s walking around without clothes when he explains he’s coming back from patrol. They share a heated moment where Greyson believes Cali will give into her desire and kiss him until the pot Cali was working on boils over. This breaks the tension and refocuses her attention back to brewing the charm. Greyson tries to remind her that the charm may not work and to be prepared for the consequences, which angers Cali. But, Greyson reasons that the charm could fail, backfire, or something worse could happen and someone could get harmed. He tries to suggest Big Mac helping her, but Cali still doesn’t trust her. Then Greyson suggests taking Artemis to the Three Witches.

### Ch 7 - XAVIER

Xavier watches Garren to study his strengths and weakness before making a move. He’s reminded of how Gabriel would have jumped first and asked questions later when Kira asks what he’s waiting for. They start to argue about timing of getting her revenge when they are interrupted by a commotion. Garren and another vampire start fighting over a spilled drink and Xavier notices the bouncers are part of the Blood Moons. Xavier is impressed with Garren’s speed and notices Kira frozen in fear. He starts to laugh, which angers her, but he tells her they should leave. She gets more upset while he tries to reason that this is his turf and taking him down would have to be on their terms just when Garren stakes the vampire he was fighting. He tries to drag Kira out until she is recognized by Garren. He laughs at her showing up to avenge her husband when Xavier continues to try dragging her out, bringing attention to him. Xavier blocks Kira, which sets off Garren, but Xavier tells him to go back to the bar with his friends.

Charlie grabs the stake he stashed under his mattress while him and Zachery are brought outside. They’re told there was a vampire attack and Zachery tells Charlie he’s afraid because he hasn’t had much training yet. They meet up with the rest of the crowd and are introduced to Chad, from the advanced hunting class. He riles up the crowd for vampire hunting which makes Charlie uncomfortable with all the noise they were making for hunting. He decides to use his wolf senses to scent any vampires and accidentally states to Zachery he doesn’t smell any vampires. Chad instructs that they will be broken into groups to search the camp and to blow whistles if they spot a vampire, not to engage, so that others can help fight. Charlie thinks something is up and goes along with the crowd. Zachery asks to pee first because he’s nervous while Charlie thinks about Violet and how hunting with her had made them a good team. Suddenly he hears a whistle blowing, realizing it’s Zachery, and runs towards it - almost shifting on the way. He finds Zachery with a figure of a vampire close by and attacks.

### Ch 9 - CALI

Cali had declined Greyson’s offer of The Three Witches and is in the kitchen alone, thinking about how Greyson was just with her naked and temping her.

She puts the potion into a container with a note Do Not Eat on it before putting in the fridge. She goes back upstairs and forces herself from Greyson’s door, but is unable to sleep in her room.

She gets more upset which just makes Garren laugh and Xavier frustrated that she can’t kept it together. He inventories their surroundings and finds at least 9 threats and they were too far from the exit. But Kira continues with her anger and tells Garren he’s hooked on vampires, which embarrasses him.

He turns around to think what their next move is when Kira goes back inside the club.

It has her running for 20 minutes before coming to a pond. Confused she notices that the center looks like a looking glass showing the field if the moon buttercup, but it starts to wither and die. Then she notices that there are hands reaching out the water and she screams, realizing that they are hands of revenants, and one drags her into the water.

### Ch 17 - CALI

She tries to reach the surface but finds that she is trapped under ice.

She assures she will also deal with Chad but wonders why he didn’t use his werewolf senses to find that it was not a vampire before showing off. He tells her he’s fought vampires that can mask their scent, but she reminds him that he needs to be extra careful.

She asks how they found her and Marta says that Lilac and her had a feeling to come check out the area but it disappeared the second they pulled her out of the pond.

Greyson recounts how he thought Cali died and overhears Violet and Marta discuss how there was a portal in the pond and it almost opening. This brings him back to the fact that he has a pack to protect and asks Marta what she knows about the pond. She tells him she only learned from Big Mac to detect dark magic and he realizes he’s vulnerable and unable to protect not only the pack but Cali. At the pack house he asks to talk to Big Mac while Tom and Orla fuss over Cali. She mind links with Greyson for permission to tell them what happened when Tom demands to know. She tells them she fell into a pond and some ghosts grab her, but Orla insists on hearing everything. Greyson steps away and wonders how he had allowed Cali, who was sleeping right next to him, wander into the woods in the middle of the night. He starts to question who their enemy is now: Inigo’s vampires, revenants and Artemis dark magic, the Orb and the spirit world. Looking at Cali and everyone surrounding her, he sees she’s pretty close to being the packs Luna.

Greyson reminds him Cali needs protection and Xavier promised to return as soon as he can. Kira, overhearing this, wonders if Xavier is going to abandon her. But, he assures they just need to speed up their efforts. They wonder if meeting Tallis was a setup and decide to leave the car behind as it’s a target.

She hesitates and Xavier pins Jensen down demanding her to prove that she can handle a kill like Garren.

### Ch 24 - CALI

Cali awakens in Greyson’s arms and he goes to get her a white mocha. She recounts the recent events and realizes if Artemis had harmed Marta then she wouldn’t have been able to help save Cali. She gets ready and decides to check on Artemis who is laying in her bedroom staring at the ceiling. She asks Artemis if she’s willing to take the potion she made last night, nervous she might refuse, but Artemis agrees. Cali rushes to the kitchen to grab the potion and runs into Greyson who is still making that white mocha. She tells him she’s giving the potion to Artemis and runs back upstairs.

Cali suggests getting Orla involved but Artemis fears seeing her disappointment; the Orb assures her that nobody will know. Cali leaves to get supplies to clean up and Artemis cleans herself up in the bathroom. The Orb taunts Artemis and she is too tired to continue fighting it, realizing that any thought she has of asking others to help her is immediately shut down by the Orb’s will. Rishika comes in to check on her and suggests they go for a walk outside. Outside she notes Rishika is talking but she can’t hear what she says, only is drawn to the cellar doors at the side of the house. She gets closer and hears another voice in her head, not the Orb’s, who calls her mistress. She realizes it’s York, and he tells her she is the Mistress of Letifer.

### Ch 27 - CALI

Cali is hesitating on asking Big Mac for help on the failed potion she had given Artemis. She asks Big Mac if they could talk inside and blurts out the entire story. Big Mac blows up on Cali for consulting another witch not of the pack to brew an unknown potion in the pack house. She tells Cali that doing this could have unleashed something worse. She asks where she got the ingredients from so they can trace what kind of potion it was and Cali reluctantly tells her she stole them. But, Mrs. Smith appears and admits she had helped Cali. The silence in the room from the betrayal has Cali awkwardly leave the room. She goes to her room and looks at the light purple potion (previously was grey) and wonders what went wrong. She leaves her to go toss it and bumps into Violet, causing the jar to pop open and splatter the potion everywhere - even into her mouth.

### Ch 28 - LOLA

Lola is on her way to class hoping Jay will return her calls and texts after he hung up on her last night. She leaves him another message and tries to get through the lecture not paying attention when the professor calls on her and everyone is staring.

She tries not to cry and when class is dismissed runs to her room. But Jacqueline and her goons stop her to continue their taunts - which makes Lola runaway crying. Jay still hadn’t called her back which gives Lola the final straw to pack her things and go back home. In the middle of packing, Emmett comes in to check on her after hearing about the incident in class. He tells her she can’t leave and she demands to know if she’s a prisoner. He assures that she can leave but she’s been making progress during their sessions when Jay appears asking what progress he’s talking about.

### Ch 29 - CALI

Cali is sitting in her room panicking because she swallowed some of the potion that had made Artemis convulse. She notes it tastes sweet and wonders when she’s going to start feeling the way Artemis did, a bucket next to her. However she starts to feel opposite, like she had drunk liquid sunshine. She starts to do exercise and realizes not only can she do them, but she’s coordinated. Greyson comes in and asks why she’s working out and starts to get concerned about her hyperactivity. He starts to take off his shirt, telling her Torin spilled coffee on him, and he was changing. But he gets upset that Cali drank the unknown potion and she realizes that Artemis reaction to the potion was not good. She’s afraid to tell Greyson the news and he moves to give her a hug. But she wants time to think so she puts her hand in his chest and sees the curse marks move away from her hand like oil and vinegar.

### Ch 30 - GREYSON

Greyson wonders what he’s looking at as Cali moves her hand and the curse marks move away from her hand and reform. He’s asks what the potion was supposed to do and she tells him it’s supposed to ward off dark magic. Cali suggests that maybe the potion might be a solution to the due destini curse. But Greyson doesn’t want to get her hopes up. He thinks about all the other times she had gotten her hopes up (going to the Oblatarion, Big Mac, and the Three Witches) and doges by saying he’ll think about the possibility. She tries to get him to drink it, but he’s reluctant, which makes her upset. She asks why he isn’t willing to even try for the chance but he’s unable to get her to see that unknown witchcraft and being an Alpha with lots on the line isn’t as simple as what she’s thinking. But she insists to just try it not drink the whole thing, for her, when suddenly Sage bursts in and tells them York is dead.

### Ch 31 - XAVIER

Xavier and Kira are in a diner having coffee. Xavier is frustrated with Kira choking again at the motel and is in edge they’re still being followed. She apologies for not being able to kill the vampires, having Xavier finish the job. She explains because she didn’t have anything against the vampires so she couldnt see a reason to kill him, they were just doing their job. He tells her that he highly doubts she can handle the action and that her revenge is just a fantasy, if she wanted the job done, she should let him handle it because she was just dead weight. He excused himself to call Cali and is relieved to hear her voice. He asks her what happened with the near drowning episode but she brushes it off and he notes she sounds a little hyped. She asks him if he noticed anything with the due destini curse veins, and he starts to wonder why she asked after seeing that they looked the same. He gets suspicious she might have made a choice but before he can ask more he overhears a commotion on her end and she tells him she has to go. He wishes he could get back to the pack house soon and rejoins Kira who tells him she already made the plans with Tallis. Xavier is confused as to what the plan is and she tells him they are to meet at the docks for a motorcycle race.

### Ch 32 - VIOLET

Violet finds Marta in the kitchen attempting to make waffles, and arguing with Lilac. She explains to Violet that she had lost a bet with Lilac and now has to make them. Violet offers a condolence to do his waffle dance, which he refuses. Violet then asks why she’s making it if he can’t eat it, but she says he can smell it which is good enough for him. She hides attempting to eat them because Lilac had commented he wanted to watch Marta eat them and tells Violet that they’ve been talking about the ghost pond. Violet thinks about how she wanted to go off and see Charlie but is afraid of what’s going on at the pack house and losing Lilac. Marta tells her that Lilac believes if they go back to the pond he might be able to communicate with some of the spirits there. Violet agrees and coaxes Marta to go investigate until also agrees. They leave without telling Big Mac or Greyson and as they get closer, Violet sees the outline of Lilac. She wonders why she didn’t see him the last time they were there and before anyone has a chance to say anything he tells them he’s going to find out and jumps into the pond.

### Ch 33 - CALI

Cali, Greyson, Sage, Zainab, Mrs. Smith and Big Mac are in the basement looking at York’s dead body lying in the cot. Big Mac insists on checking and confirms. Cali asks if that means he’s dead and gone or dead and a revenant who can awaken with orange eyes, as it’s been said he’s been dead multiple times before. Greyson tells them they need to burn the body, but Cali insists they have a funeral for him first. Big Mac tries to argue that they didn’t know him and that prolonging it puts them in danger, but Mrs Smith agrees with Cali stating that he died under their roof and werewolves honor the dead. Greyson gives in and orders Sage and Zainab to gather everyone for the funeral rites as soon as possible. Later, with the pack outside at the funeral pyre, Cali notices Marta and Violet are missing, as well as Rishika and Artemis. She sees Rishika and Artemis coming towards them but sees the expression in Artemis face that scares her. She sees her parents and thinks she should tell them to go home. Greyson says a few words, Big Mac lights the torch and hands it to him, he’s about to light the corpse when they hear a scream in the forest. Without lighting the pyre, Violet runs to the group asking them to come quick.

Jay asks why Lola didn’t tell him about it and what she said on the phone. Lola, even more embarrassed, fails at trying to make Jay stop because he continues to blame Emmett for knowing how vulnerable Lola is and taking advantage of it. He punches Emmett and shifts, landing on Emmett in the hallway, where everyone can see them.

### Ch 35 - XAVIER

Xavier and Kira meet up with Tallis who shows them a motorcycle, which Xavier is confused about, as it’s nothing special. Tallis tells Xavier it’s his ride and he figures that the motorcycle race is a front for him to join and take out Garren fairly without the Blood Moons having to retaliate. Kira is suddenly concerned for Xavier’s well being and he assures that as long as the bike starts he can race it, no matter it’s junk. He then tells her to keep herself safe and in a low profile while he’s racing as he can’t protect her. At the speedway, there are 9 other racers with new vehicles. Xavier studies the course, a half mile loop, and plans his attack. He accidentally takes out another rider in the beginning trying to doge a dirty attack, and manages to catch up to Garren as he is a better rider. But as Xavier starts his attack his bike sputters and dies while he flies through the air in the path of Garren.

### Ch 36 - CALI

The group watches Violet run towards them and Cali sends her magic to snuff out the flames of the torch. Violet tells them that Marta and Lilac jumped into the pond which upsets Cali that they had gone back there after what happened to her. The rest of the pack don’t know what they are talking about so Greyson has Big Mac and Cali join him to check it out. On the way, Big Mac lectures Violet but Cali sympathizes that she wanted to do something to get Lilac back.
