Echoes of the moon Chapter 78
Chapter 78 — Aria's POV The ethereal light surrounding me felt different — not just a glow, but pure power coursing through my veins. I flexed my fingers experimentally, watching the silvery marks on my skin shimmer with each movement. The infirmary's familiar white walls seemed to pulse with the energy radiating from my body.“Incredible,” Mom whispered from her chair by the window, her eyes wide with wonder. The amazement on her face made my heart swell. After everything we'd been through, seeing her here, watching me with such pride… It meant everything.“Try lifting that water glass,” Victor suggested, pointing to the bedside table. “Let's see how your control is developing.”I focused on the glass, expecting to need effort. Instead, it practically leaped into my hand. “Whoa!”“Careful,” Victor cautioned, but he couldn't hide his excitement. He bustled around me with his instruments, muttering under his breath as each reading came back off the charts. “This is unprecedented. The

Chapter 79 — Aria's POV The morning sun hadn't even cleared the treetops when I stepped onto the training field. Power thrummed through my veins, different from yesterday — stronger, more focused. My skin practically buzzed with energy, the silvery marks casting subtle patterns on the ground around me. Warriors were already gathering, their eyes fixed on the ethereal glow emanating from my body.“Ready for the power assessment?” Victor called from his monitoring station. The equipment he'd set up looked like something from a sci-fi movie, with screens displaying wavelength patterns I didn't understand and sensors that hummed when I walked past them. “We need baseline readings before you start training.”I nodded, centering myself in the middle of his sensor array. The mate bond hummed in my mind, Kane and Zane's presence steady and strong. It felt different now — more like three streams flowing into one river than separate connections.“We're here,” Kane sent. 'Draw what you need.'“

Chapter 80 — Kane's POV Maya's words wouldn't stop echoing in my head as I paced the war room for what felt like the hundredth time. “Hundreds of them… maybe thousands… we're not ready.” The first hints of dawn were creeping through the windows, painting the tactical maps spread across the tables in shades of gray and pink. I hadn't slept. Couldn't sleep. Not with the weight of what we'd learned pressing down on me. Through our mate bond, I felt Aria's concern pulsing steadily. She was finally resting after the strain of maintaining Maya's link for so long — a rest well-earned after the incredible feat of power she'd displayed. Zane's presence was there too, a quiet strength supporting us both. The three-way connection had grown stronger recently, more integrated, but right now it just meant they could both feel my mounting anxiety. This couldn't wait until morning. I pulled out my phone and sent rapid messages to trusted members. We needed answers, and we needed them now. The fat

Chapter 81 — Aria's POV I couldn't sleep. Kane and Zane's emotions kept pulsing through our mate bond like an anxious heartbeat. Something big went down at that meeting, and the tension was making my skin crawl. I tried counting sheep, meditation, even that weird breathing exercise Elara taught me, but nothing worked. Their worry was too loud in my head.The digital clock on my nightstand glowed 3:47 AM. Great. Another sleepless night.My bedroom door opened, and Zane's familiar scent filled the room. One glance at his face, and I knew. Whatever had happened, it wasn't good. The confident, long-legged stride that could eat up a room was gone, replaced by something heavier, more uncertain.“Spill it,” I said while sitting up and pulling my knees to my chest. “What's got you both so wound up?”Zane ran a hand through his dark hair — never a good sign. “Selene showed up at the meeting.”That got my attention. “Selene? She's been MIA for days.” Her absence hadn't gone unnoticed. “She sa

Chapter 82 — Aria's POV The magical barrier shattered like glass, raining sparkles of power that faded before hitting the ground. My stomach dropped as the first hunters burst through the gap. Holy crap.These weren't the hunters we'd trained for. Their bodies were wrong — limbs too long, muscles bulging in impossible ways. Some had multiple partial shifts, fur, and scales mixed together. Others moved like smoke, barely solid.“All units, maintain formation!” Kane's voice cut through the radio static. “Do not engage individually!”Our warriors snapped into the defensive positions we'd drilled countless times. I sprinted to the command center, magic crackling at my fingertips. Through our mate bond, I felt Kane's focused determination and Zane's calculated readiness.“Mage Squadron Alpha, reinforce the eastern flank!” I grabbed the tactical mic, watching red dots multiply on our monitoring screens. “Beta Team, standby for healing support!”The first clash hit like a thunderclap. Our

Chapter 83 — Kane's POV I couldn't take my eyes off Aria.The mate bond between us pulsed with her pain — raw, intense waves that made my chest physically ache. She stood frozen, staring at the scene before us. Azrael's claws pressed against her mom's throat, drawing tiny beads of blood that made my wolf snarl with rage.The bastard had timed his attack perfectly. We'd been winning, pushing his forces back, when he suddenly appeared with her mom in his grasp. One look at Aria's face and I knew all our careful battle plans were about to go up in smoke.“Such a touching reunion,” Azrael drawled, his lips curving into that sadistic smile I'd grown to hate. “Mother and daughter, together again. Though perhaps not for long.” His claws pressed deeper, making Catherine wince.Our warriors held their positions, but I could smell their fear and uncertainty. None of us had expected this twist. Through the bond, I felt Zane's growing alarm as he coordinated the medical teams behind our lines. W

Chapter 84 — Aria's POV I couldn't move. Couldn't breathe. Where Selene stood moments ago, only darkness remained, swirling like smoke in the wind. The battlefield fell silent, everyone frozen in shock at what we'd just witnessed.The sound of my mother's sob broke through my paralysis. She rushed toward me, her face streaked with tears and blood, stumbling over bodies of fallen warriors. Behind her, Azrael swayed slightly, his usual composure cracking. Something was different about him — wrong in a way I couldn't quite place yet.“Jensen!” I called out, my voice steadier than I felt. The young warrior appeared instantly at my side, blood matting his blonde hair. “Get my mother to safety. Now.”“Aria, no!” Mom grabbed my arm, her fingers digging in desperately. “I won't leave you again! Not after everything-”“Yes, you will.” I hate using commands — hate the way they strip away choice — but I pushed the power into my next words: “Go with Jensen. Stay behind our lines.”Jensen wrapped

Chapter 85 — Aria's POV I burst into a moonlit clearing, my lungs burning from the chase. The taste of blood filled my mouth — whether it was mine or from earlier fights, I couldn't tell anymore. Azrael stood in the center, his usual smirk replaced by something darker. More desperate. But there was a calculation in his eyes that I didn't like. “Nowhere left to run,” I growled, circling him slowly. My enhanced senses picked up old power here — stone circles half-buried in the earth, remnants of something ancient and dark. The air felt wrong, heavy with centuries of corrupt magic. “Who said I was running?” Azrael's laugh held an edge I'd never heard before. Blood darker than night dripped from his wounds, staining the ground beneath him. “I merely needed the right venue for what comes next.” We clashed in a blur of motion. My claws raked his already injured side, while his corrupted power slammed into my chest. The impact sent me stumbling back, but I recovered quickly. Thanks t

Echoes of the moon Chapter 95
Chapter 95 — EpilogueFive years passed faster than a witch's broom on a moonlit night. Standing on the newly built observation deck, I barely recognized our territories anymore — in the best possible way. The celebration for our fifth peace anniversary had transformed the grounds into a festival of supernatural proportions.“Mama! Mama! Watch this!” Luna's voice carried across the courtyard. My five-year-old daughter stood in the center of a circle of young supernaturals, her silver hair glowing with combined witch-wolf power. Blue sparks danced between her fingers as she created intricate patterns in the air.Not to be outdone, her twin brother Ash had somehow managed to scale the academy walls — again. His dark hair contrasted sharply against the white stone as he moved with inherited vampire speed.“Ash Alexander!” Kane's authoritative voice boomed across the grounds. “What did we say about using vampire abilities without supervision?”Our son's face scrunched up in that particula
Echoes of the moon Chapter 94
Chapter 94 — Aria's POVSunlight streamed through our bedroom windows, and for once, I woke up exactly where I wanted to be — sandwiched between Kane and Zane. A month had passed since the Luna ceremony, and life had settled into a new kind of normal. Well, as normal as life could be when you're mated to two alphas and running a supernatural melting pot.“Morning baby,” Mom called from the doorway, already dressed and holding two steaming coffee mugs. “Your boys have already left for patrol. Something about checking the new boundary markers.”I untangled myself from the sheets, accepting the coffee gratefully. “You're a lifesaver.”“That's what moms are for.” She settled into the window seat, her presence still sometimes surprising me. After years of separation, having her back felt like a dream. “Want to grab breakfast and visit your father?” We made a grave for him in the pack house.An hour later, we stood before Dad's grave. The memorial garden had grown, now incorporating plants
Echoes of the moon Chapter 93
Chapter 93 — Zane's POVThe full moon hung low over our pack grounds as I watched Kane spin Aria around the dance floor. Her white dress caught the light of floating witch orbs, making her look almost ethereal. After everything we'd been through — the fights, the near-death experiences, the world-ending threats — seeing her smile like that made every secret planning session worth it.“She looks happy,” Kane said, materializing beside me with two glasses of the blood wine the vampires had brought. Its dark red contents sparkled with unnatural luminescence. I accepted the glass, remembering our late-night scheming. “Speaking of outdoing ourselves, remember when you nearly got caught by that witch patrol while sneaking in fabric samples?”Kane snorted, his usual serious expression cracking. “Worth it. Though next time we plan secret ceremonies, maybe we skip the full moon timing. Do you know how hard it is to be stealthy when everyone's senses are heightened?”“At least the witches boug
Echoes of the moon Chapter 92
Chapter 92 — Aria's POV I woke up to sunlight streaming through our bedroom windows and Zane's quiet cursing. Opening my eyes, I found him carefully hanging what had to be the most beautiful white dress I'd ever seen.“Shit, you're awake,” he muttered. “This was supposed to be a surprise.”“What's the dress for?” I sat up, noticing Kane's absence. “And where's our other mate?”Zane's face broke into a rare full smile. “It's for your Luna ceremony. You know, the one we never had time for between all the fighting and world-saving?”I blinked. “My what now?”“Luna ceremony. That thing where we officially recognize you as our Luna in front of the pack.” He crossed the room to sit beside me. “And before you say we don't need it — we know. But we want to do this properly.”“But-”A knock interrupted my protest. The door opened to reveal my mom, holding an ornate wooden box. Behind her, Kane wore the biggest grin I'd ever seen on his face.“Surprise?” he offered.Mom's eyes were already tea
Echoes of the moon Chapter 91
Chapter 91 — Aria's POV The shimmering in reality solidified into a girl about my age. She had a vampire's pale skin but a witch's aura — something I'd never seen before. Her dark hair was tied back in a messy braid, and her clothes showed signs of long travel. Though she looked exhausted, her eyes burned with desperate hope.“Are you her?” Her voice shook slightly. “The one who unified all five races?”Before I could answer, Kane and Zane burst into the clearing, powers ready. The girl flinched but held her ground, hands raised to show she meant no harm.“I'm not here to fight,” she said quickly. “My name is Mira. I… I felt what happened. What you became. I had to come.”I lowered my hands, my enhanced senses detecting no deception from her. “I'm Aria. These are my mates, Kane and Zane. How did you find us?”“I followed the energy signature. I've never felt anything like it.” Mira's eyes filled with tears. “I thought I was the only one who was… different. Who didn't fit anywhere.”K
Echoes of the moon Chapter 90
Chapter 90 — Aria's POV The walk back to pack territory felt endless. Each step reminded me how much had changed in the past few hours. My newly unified powers thrummed under my skin, while traces of purified magic from the nexus followed us like loyal puppies, creating weird light shows in the early morning air.“You're brooding,” Kane said, his hand finding mine.“I don't brood.”“You totally brood,” Zane chimed in. “We can feel it through the bond now. Very dramatic.”I rolled my eyes, but their teasing helped lighten the heavy atmosphere. Our enhanced mate bond let me feel their underlying tension though — we were all worried about what we'd find at home.The first signs of battle stopped us in our tracks. Deep claw marks scored ancient trees. The ground was scorched in patches where magical attacks had landed. The metallic scent of blood lingered in the air.Kane's grip tightened on my hand. “There was a major fight here.”Through our bond, I felt him cataloging tactical details
Echoes of the moon Chapter 89
Chapter 89 — Aria's POV The nexus light hit us like a tidal wave, and time seemed to freeze. One second I was trying to warn Kane and Zane about what I was sensing, and the next we were all caught in some kind of shared vision. Pure magical energy coursed through our mate bond, stronger than anything I'd felt before.“Holy shit,” I whispered, watching golden threads of destiny weaving between us. Each strand pulsed with possibility, showing flashes of futures I couldn't quite grasp. “Are you guys seeing this?”Kane's grip on my hand tightened. “The threads? Yeah. What the hell is happening?”I could barely focus on his words as understanding slammed into me. My transformation hadn't just changed me — it had shifted the entire balance of supernatural power. The purified nexus beneath our feet was already acting like a beacon, calling to others who wanted unity instead of the endless fighting between races.“Aria.” Kane's voice cut through my racing thoughts. Through our bond, I felt h
Echoes of the moon Chapter 88
Chapter 88 — Aria's POVPower surged through me in waves of colored light — all merging into an aurora that lit up the clearing like the northern lights. For the first time in my life, every part of me worked in perfect harmony. No more fighting against myself. No more holding back. Each aspect enhanced the others instead of competing for dominance.The energy radiating from my skin cast dancing shadows across the ancient stones. I could feel every pulse of power, every current of magic flowing through the area. My enhanced senses picked up things I'd never noticed before — the way the lines hummed beneath the earth, how the very air crackled with supernatural energy.“Impossible,” Azrael spat, gathering stolen power around himself like a shield. Dark magic crackled between his fingers, but I could see how it fought against his control. “Those abilities are mine now! The ritual was perfect!”I could see how sluggish my stolen powers were in his grasp, like trying to control a wild ani
Echoes of the moon Chapter 87
Chapter 87 — Aria's POVThe first thing I noticed was Zane's arms around me, the lingering taste of his blood on my tongue. For a moment everything felt muffled, distant — like being underwater. Then my senses slammed back online with overwhelming intensity.Heartbeats thundered in my ears — not just Zane's and Kane's, but every living creature for miles. The frantic flutter of bird wings in the trees. The skittering of small animals fleeing the area. The steady thrum of ancient power beneath the earth. Everything crashed into my consciousness at once, a sensory overload that would have brought me to my knees if I wasn't already lying down.The tang of blood, sweat, and rage filled my nose. I could distinguish between them all — Kane's blood, tinged with alpha power. Zane's sweat, laced with desperation. Azrael's rage, bitter and acrid in the air. Power hummed through the ground beneath me, lines I'd never been able to perceive before now blazingly obvious, crisscrossing beneath the s
