Rise of Forsaken Luna
Zaia Toussaint felt she was meant for brilliance. Luna of the strong Crescent Moon Pack was supposed to have an unbroken relationship with Alpha Sebastian, a connection created by the Moon Goddess herself. But Zaia is tossed out—betrayed, humiliated, bereft of everything she loved—when her mate ruthlessly rejects her for another before the whole pack.
Now an outcast, Zaia must negotiate the perilous rogue territory with just her determination to survive and a deadly secret: she carries the Alpha's heir. Zaia discovers she is not like any other Luna when rumors of an ancient prophesy get to her ears. Her fate is interwoven with an ancient power that might either doom all the split werewolf tribes or unify them.
But there is danger on her way to her actual calling. Haunted by the ruins of a shattered mate bond, stalked by rivals, and chased by those who would use her for their own benefit, Zaia must create improbable alliances to survive. Dax, a renegade Alpha with a dark past and personal secrets, is chief among them. Every battle fought side by side strengthens their bond, yet as trust deepens the risk of treachery increases.
The stakes are higher when Zaia gets a note from the Moon Goddess personally. A darkness festers in the center of the Crescent Moon Pack; the tie with her mate has been poisoned. Zaia has to travel to where the moon meets the sea—a site of myth and lethal secrets—to find the truth.
With the destiny of the packs hanging in the balance, Zaia has to choose: will she recover her proper place as Luna, or rise above the roles others have put upon her to become something far greater—the Forsaken Luna?

Chapter: Chapter 167: Guarding the HauntedAfter Cassandra left, the woodland was quiet, but the suspense hung thick like a storm just about to strike. Lirien had disappeared. not with Cassandra. Not besides us.She was on her own. That made her erratic as well. Back at camp, the battle-worn fighters huddled around the fire, their faces marked with anxiety. We had gained something today; yet, it would be interesting to know if this was a mistake or a triumph. The first to speak was Dux. "So what now? Lirien cannot be left alone out there. Rorin groaned, his damaged visage inscrutable as she made her decision. She turned her back on Cassandra, but she chose none of us either. Elyse said, "She's lost." She has spent her whole life believing one truth; now she is unsure of what to believe. She is vulnerable because of this. Tasha waved her arms. "You believe Cassandra won't show up searching for her? She shall. Lirien lately started to be a burden. I let out a quiet breath as my fingers tightened on the relic at my chest.

Chapter: Chapter 166: When Fragmented TrustCassandra took cautious, purposeful steps towards us, her violet eyes shining with delight and her smile razor-sharp. Her black energy swirled in the air around her, sending shills down my spine."Oh, Zaia," she said, slanted her head to study me. You truly felt you could violate the Shadow Pact with sentiment? With minimal talks on unity? Lirien still shook from the traces of the heavenly force that had passed through her. Her red eyes, which had always blazed with relentless hate, suddenly flicked with something else—uncertainty. Her voice strained as she replied, "You used me," her hands clenched. Cassandra laughed, a musical sound that made me think of alarm bells. "I walked you, sweet Lirien. I gave you the tools you so sorely needed to recover your birthright. And what then did you do? She tsked and shook her head. You halted. You allow the honeyed words of the Luna soak into your heart. Lirien's whole body stiffened. You lied to me. Cassandra groaned, annoyed. Has I? Alter

Chapter: Chapter 165: Forest Glade ConfrontationLike a phantom's breath, the whisper enveloped us with a terrible sensation of dread over the treetops."You think you might alter fate?"Lirien's vocal quality.The shadows in Sacred Hollow deepened and curved like ravenous tentacles. Though even that warmth couldn't chase away the darkness approaching us, the blessing of the Moon Goddess still thrummed in my veins.Dax pulled his sword, his muscles stiffened for fight. She was looking forward us.Elyse whispered an incantation, her silver eyes flickering weakly. Not one. She were observing.Tasha opened her mouth to show teeth. "then let's give her something to see."I raised my chin, determined not to let terror seize. "No," We battle somewhere. Here is not our scene.Dax turned to look at me. "Zaia—""This is holy ground," I stated with great conviction. "I won't denigrate it with bloodshed."The shadows seemed to be thinking about what I had said. From beyond the treeline, then, a man moved forward.Lirien.She wore a black coat

Chapter: Chapter 164: Quiet Blessing of the Moon GoddessThough their images faded, their echoes thrumming in my bones like a broken chord remained. My thoughts whirled with the facts the Keeper had pushed upon me; my breathing was labouring. Actually, the reality exceeded my expectations. More than I could have tolerated.The Shadow Pact was a tie linking the pack's destiny to forces much older than any of us had known, not just an instrument of power or a curse afflicting the Crescent Moon Pack. Breaking it would call for a sacrifice more than I could have ever imagined.Their red eyes inscrutable, the Keeper regarded me. Now you understand, they said softly. "The agreement cannot be revoked without results." One has to pay blood price. And it comes from you as well.My wolf seething within me, my fingers twisted into fists. "If the cost is my to pay, then so be it," I replied. But I refuse to let the pack suffer for previous errors.The Keeper slanted their head, as if weighing my comments. Then they turned back into the darkness, a fain

Chapter: Chapter 163: Techniques of the Forbidden LandsThe devastation of the hilltop was a clear warning, a sobering reminder of Lirien's growing might. As we gathered in the tent, her harsh and caustic comments still reverberated in my ears. Both physically and metaphorically, the shadows had increased and pressed on the delicate togetherness we had so laboratively created.But there was another, a faint whisper at the brink of my consciousness borne by the constant pulse of the relic. Lirien and Cassandra were not involved. Something ancient, something beckoning me from far within the Forbidden Lands.Fear and mystery have always come from the Forbidden Lands. The air there heavy with an odd force turned even the toughest away, hence even the fiercest wolves feared to approach her boundaries. Stories of those who entered and never came back were handed down like warnings, moulding next generations of Crescent Moon wolves.But the relic I had throbbed with intent, its glow weak but constant. Whatever lay in those territories, I knew it

Chapter: Chapter 162: Reversing Customary TraditionsThe howl stayed in the air like an unspoken challenge, the brilliant eyes in the shadows a sharp reminder of the threats invading our life. Every wolf poised for the battle we knew was about to strike the camp in tense quiet. But the danger did not materialise as the seconds extended into minutes. One by one the eyes vanished, leaving only the disturbing silence of the forest.Dax said, "It's a warning," his golden eyes glancing over the treeline. "We are being tested by them.""Or waiting for us to fall," Elyse replied, her silver eyes piercing. "They want us apart. They are expecting we will break apart on our own.Her comments really connected with me as they reflected the uncertainties growing inside of me. Lirien's claim, the brittle alliance with the rogues, the weight of the Crescent Moon's legacy—all seemed like shackles, binding us to customs that no longer served us.We had to become free from those bonds if we were going to live. We had to generate something fresh.Once mor
