Luca’s POV

For the first time in weeks, I slept without disturbance. No whispers. No shadows creeping into my mind. No Dorian. No Raven.

When I woke up, the morning light spilled through the open window, warming my skin. I blinked, taking a deep breath, expecting the usual heaviness in my chest. But it wasn’t there.

The rune worked.

I sat up slowly, stretching out my stiff muscles. Elara and Lyanna’s efforts hadn’t been in vain. They had given me peace. At least for now.

A soft knock at my door pulled me from my thoughts. "Come in," I called.

Elara stepped inside, her gaze immediately searching for mine. Concern. That’s what I always saw in her eyes when she looked at me.

"How do you feel?" she asked.

I exhaled, rubbing a hand through my hair. "Like myself again."

Her shoulders relaxed slightly. "No dreams?"

"Not a single one." I gave her a small smirk. "Kind of disappointing, actually. I was getting used to the night visits."

She rolled her eyes, but I caught the way her lips twitche

    Elara’s POVThe moon hung low in the sky, casting an eerie glow through the thick canopy above us. The forest was dense here, the trees stretching like skeletal fingers toward the heavens. A chilling wind whispered through the leaves, sending a shiver down my spine.I remained focused on the journey, urging myself forward as I kept pace with Luca and Lyanna. We had been on the run for hours, following faint traces from the rogue description, only to be led deeper into unknown terrain.I wanted to believe we were close. That just beyond the next ridge, we’d find Kael waiting for us, injured but alive.But the deeper we went, the more I feared the truth.Kael had vanished without a trace. And if we didn’t find him soon… we might never find him at all.Not again. I can’t lose him too.Luca rode slightly ahead, his sharp gaze sweeping the landscape for any sign of movement.

    Raven’s POVThe air was thick with the scent of decay. The cavern we stood in pulsed with dark energy, a swirling storm of malevolence that coiled around my skin like a living thing. I had spent weeks preparing for this moment, drawing power from the depths of the abyss, feeding off the hatred and suffering that seeped through the very ground beneath my feet.But now, the real work had only begun.I was going to win this time.The Shadow-born were assembled before me—an army forged from death, darkness, and the forgotten screams of the damned. Their twisted forms were bathed in the dim, flickering glow of the torches that lined the cavern walls. Some were humanoid in shape, their faces stretched into unnatural expressions of hunger and rage. Others bore no resemblance to anything from the mortal world, creatures of pure shadow, shifting and writhing as if the darkness itself had given them life.I had created them.And now, they would be my greatest weapon.Dorian stood beside me, his

  • ELARA; THE LUNAR ALPHA    The Attack

    Elara’s POV The wind carried the scent of blood. Thick, metallic, suffocating. Luca and I stood at the edge of the village, staring at the devastation before us. Homes reduced to splintered wood and ash. The ground, once packed with footprints of families and laughter, was now soaked in crimson. Shadows flickered in the dim moonlight, stretching over bodies that lay lifeless in the streets. I swallowed hard. I had seen death before. War. Battles. The consequences of power left unchecked. But this? This was butchery. “This wasn’t an ordinary attack,” Luca muttered beside me, his voice tight with barely contained rage. His hands clenched at his sides, his whole body radiating tension. I stepped forward, forcing myself to move. My boots crunched against the debris as I knelt beside a fallen werewolf. His throat was torn open, but there were no claw marks. No wounds from fangs. Shadows clung to his skin like something unnatural had seeped into his very being. I reached out,

    Elara's POV The heavy weight of the day’s events sat on my shoulders as I walked with Luca to meet with the elders. The moon hung high in the sky, casting its ethereal glow over the stone walls of the ancestral hall. I could feel the tension in the air, thick and palpable, like the calm before a storm.Despite the fierce determination that burned in my chest, doubt lingered. The massacre, the Shadow-born—these were threats unlike anything we had faced before. And Raven... I still couldn't wrap my head around the possibility that he had aligned himself with creatures born from the shadows. That thought alone sent a chill down my spine.As we approached the council room, the sounds of hushed voices and murmured discussions reached our ears. Lyanna had called for an urgent meeting with the Council of Elders. Word had already spread of our discovery, but it was essential that all the leaders were gathered to hear it from her directly.Luca and I entered the chamber, the atmosphere inside

    Elara's POV The night was eerily quiet, the kind of silence that makes you feel like you’re drowning in your own thoughts. I sat by the window in my cabin, my gaze lost in the inky expanse of the forest beyond. The wind rustled through the trees, but it was a gentle whisper, far too soft to drown out the storm of thoughts in my mind.Kael. My heart twisted at the thought of him. He had disappeared without a trace, vanishing into the night like a ghost. I couldn’t help but wonder where he was now, what had happened to him. Had he been captured by Raven’s forces, or worse, was he already dead? The uncertainty gnawed at me, pulling me deeper into a well of dread I couldn’t escape.I wanted to believe he was out there somewhere, waiting for me, fighting to return to me. But the more I thought about the look in his eyes when he said goodbye, the more I feared the worst. Had he left because he didn’t think I could survive this fight? Or had he left to protect me, to keep me safe from the

    Kael's POV The walls of the small cabin were rough, the wood unpolished and the air still thick with the scent of freshly cut timber. I stood at the window, gazing out over the dense expanse of the seventh clan’s territory. The rolling hills, dark with the promise of winter, were nothing like the rolling plains back home in the first clan. I was trying to settle in, to adapt to this new life that was supposed to be a fresh start, but it was proving harder than I had anticipated.It wasn’t the work. That part had been simple enough. There were plenty of tasks to keep me busy, whether it was mending fences or chopping wood. The seventh clan had offered me a place, though it was clear they didn’t fully believe my reason for coming over. Although they treated me as family, a familiar presence in their midst.I felt alone. It wasn't the people. They are kind enough, in their own way. They didn’t question my past or my choices, but there was an undercurrent of discomfort whenever they loo

The great hall loomed ahead, its stone walls rugged and imposing, built to withstand the harsh winters and the enemies that lurked beyond the borders. Torches flickered along the corridor as I made my way inside, each step heavy with the weight of what I was about to hear.The moment I entered, the room fell into silence. Warriors, scouts, and members stood gathered, their gazes turning toward me. At the center of them all sat their Alpha, a man of unshakable presence, his dark hair streaked with silver, his sharp eyes assessing me the moment I stepped forward.“Kael,” He greeted, his deep voice echoing in the vast hall. He sat with an air of authority, his fingers tapping the armrest of his chair as if contemplating how much to tell me.I inclined my head slightly in acknowledgment. “You summoned me.”He nodded, then motioned toward the scout who had delivered the message.

But I refused to show it.I took slow, measured steps forward, weaving through the gathered warriors, my expression carefully schooled. My heart thundered in my chest, but I wouldn’t let it betray me. Kael’s blue-gray eyes met mine across the yard, unreadable as always, his stance casual yet alert, like a man who knew he had stepped back into a world that had changed without him.He looked stronger than when h

My veins pulsed with silver fire, my claws shimmering as I met the creature head-on. With one swift movement, I tore through it, my energy colliding with its essence.

The tall spires of the stone fortress loomed ahead, dark and imposing against the moonlit sky. My heart pounded in my chest, not from fear, but from the anticipation of what was to come.Luca.Once my closest friend, now a prisoner of his own choices.
