“What’s happening?” I stepped toward the door, where Ragnor and Gamma Dwayne stood, their faces shadowed by the dim torchlight.

Ragnor’s body was tense, every muscle coiled as if bracing for impact.

Something was wrong—terribly wrong.

“Val... that’s…” Ragnor rubbed his temple, hesitating. His hesitation only heightened the unease in my chest.

“Go on,” I urged, my voice steady despite the growing dread. “What is it?”

“The trial…”

My eyes widened in disbelief. I swallowed hard, waiting for him to finish. “What about it?”

“It’s starting tonight.”

The words hit me like a blow. My heart raced. “Tonight? Are you sure?”

Ragnor nodded weakly, his fear and worry evident. The weight of the task hung heavy in the air.

But I couldn’t show weakness—not now.

I forced a smile, masking my own frustration.

“Don’t worry, Alpha. I’m ready.”

My words were steady, a promise I wasn’t sure I could keep. But I wouldn’t back down. Never. If this test had to be done, then so

    Valkyrie The light faded, and for a moment, I felt weightless, caught in a void where time seemed to stand still. When I opened my eyes, the first thing I saw was Ragnor—his piercing gaze burning with a mixture of anger, worry, and relief. “Valkyrie,” he breathed, his voice rough and trembling as he knelt beside me. I blinked, disoriented, realizing I was lying on the forest’s edge. The murmurs of the council echoed in the background, distant but judgmental. My hand instinctively tightened around the pendant, its solid weight anchoring me to the moment. “You did it,” Ragnor said, his fingers brushing damp strands of hair from my face. I tried to sit up, but the sharp ache in my ribs forced a wince from my lips. His hand shot out to steady me, his grip firm but careful. “Don’t push yourself,” he muttered, his jaw tight with suppressed frustration. “I’m fine,” I rasped, though every inch of my body screamed otherwise. “No, you’re not.” His tone was clipped, his emotions

    Valkyrie The circle felt like a cage. The council stood at its edges, their stares piercing and judgmental. Ragnor’s gaze burned into my back, an unspoken plea to stop this madness, but I didn’t dare turn around. My pride wouldn’t allow it—not after everything I’d already endured. The elder, a wiry man with streaks of silver in his hair, stepped forward. His expression was cold, unreadable, as he began to shift. Bones cracked, skin stretched, and fur sprouted in a grotesque yet mesmerizing transformation. The elder stood before me, a massive wolf with fur as gray as storm clouds. His yellow eyes glowed with ancient power, locking onto mine. “This is your last chance to back out,” another council member warned, her voice sharp. “I won’t,” I said, forcing my voice to remain steady. The wolf stepped closer, his massive paws sinking into the dirt. My instincts screamed at me to run, to flee from the predator bearing down on me, but I held my ground. “Valkyrie, kneel,” the council

    Valkyrie The winds howled as I stood at the edge of the Lunar Cliff, the sacred ground bathed in the cold, silver glow of the full moon. Below me, the pack waited in tense silence, their murmurs carried on the icy breeze. My shoulder throbbed from the Bite of Truth, but I held my head high. This was my moment—not just to prove myself to them, but to prove I belonged. “Valkyrie,” the youngest council member called, his voice sharp and unwavering. “Welcome to your final trial.” Every trial had brought a new face to deliver their decrees, but their tone was always the same: cold, impartial, and merciless. The rest of the council watched from below, their expressions hard with skepticism. Among them, Ragnor’s eyes burned into mine, steady and unwavering. His silent plea was clear: Don’t do this. Don’t risk yourself for them. But I couldn’t back down. This wasn’t just about the pack—it was about me. “I’m ready,” I said, forcing my voice steady. “The Luna Rite requires yo

    Valkyrie The winds howled, carrying the councilwoman’s venomous words across the cliff. My heart stuttered in my chest, and for a moment, the glow around me seemed to dim. Another challenge? After everything? My body ached, my limbs trembling beneath the weight of exhaustion. Yet their doubt persisted. “The Alpha’s Challenge remains,” the councilwoman repeated, her voice as sharp as broken glass. “Valkyrie must fight to solidify her claim.” “No!" Ragnor’s voice boomed through the stillness. It was a growl, low and dangerous, vibrating through the air like thunder before a storm. The council turned toward him in unison, their faces a mix of surprise and calculation. The pack murmured below, the tension climbing like an approaching tempest. Ragnor stepped forward, his eyes glowing with the amber light of his wolf. “She’s proven herself. The Moon Goddess acknowledged her. What more do you want?” The councilwoman smirked. “Tradition demands—” “Enough!” Ragnor roared, his

    Valkyrie: Last night’s battle still lingered vividly in my mind, yet I couldn’t remember how I ended up on this massive, plush bed, surrounded by the familiar scent of oud wood. “Ragnor’s chambers?” When I opened my eyes, I found myself lying in a room bathed in the amber hues of twilight. The soft light filtered through the curtains, casting long, golden shadows across the lavish furnishings. For a moment, I didn’t recognize where I was. But the scent—intimate and familiar—stirred my memories. This wasn’t the cold, cramped maid’s quarters I was used to. This was his room. “Ragnor’s...” I whispered, the realization sinking in. And then I felt it—strong arms wrapped around me, holding me close. His warmth was a barrier against the lingering chill of the night before. “Valkyrie,” Ragnor’s deep voice rumbled softly in my ear. I turned my head slightly, my gaze meeting his intense gray eyes. His face was etched with concern, the sharp lines of his jaw softened by an unm

  • His Hybrid Luna   Chapter 33: Romantic Picnic

    Valkyrie A week had passed, and life in my new home had taken on a surprising rhythm. It suited me more than I’d ever imagined. The towering walls of Ragnor’s mansion, once intimidating, now felt protective. For the first time in years, I didn’t bow my head to anyone, and the weight of servitude had finally lifted. Nancy ensured I was never alone; her presence was grounding and comforting. And Ragnor? He was everything I never dared to hope for—gentle when I needed softness, strong when shadows of doubt tried to creep in. Together, they helped me heal, not just physically but in ways I hadn’t realized I needed. I recovered quickly, though there were moments when I caught Ragnor watching me with quiet concern, as if afraid the fragile peace we’d found might shatter. “You need air,” he announced one crisp morning, walking into the study where I sat with Nancy. “We’re going out.” “Out?” I raised a brow, curious. “For a picnic,” he clarified, a small smile tugging at his li

    Valkyrie My last laugh and fleeting happiness had shifted into unease. I never imagined such a place could exist in this isolated area. “Don’t wander too far from me,” Ragnor said, gripping my hand tightly. His tone was firm, his golden eyes scanning the shadows ahead. “It’s an old settlement, and we don’t know what might be lurking here.” “How long has it been here, I wonder,” I murmured, trying to steady my nerves. “Long before my father’s reign,” Ragnor replied grimly. “I didn’t know it still existed.” As we moved deeper into the eerie stillness, the sharp creak of wood broke the silence. A cottage door swung open, and an elderly man stepped out. His sharp, calculating eyes fixed on Ragnor, his expression a mix of recognition and suspicion. “Alpha,” the man greeted, his voice steady but tinged with something unspoken. “Who are you?” Ragnor asked, his stance unwavering yet respectful. “I am the last of the old pack,” the man replied, his gaze briefly flicking to me. “And I kn

    Ragnor "What the hell are you talking about?" I barked, my patience wearing thin. I couldn’t let this old wolf spew nonsense and disturb Valkyrie. She had only just begun to recover, and this could undo everything. “I speak no nonsense, Alpha,” the old man said calmly, his eyes flickering with an otherworldly glow. “It’s clear from her aura—something none of us dared to imagine.” “Enough!” My growl rumbled through the clearing. “I’ve had enough of your riddles. We didn’t come here to listen to your fabricated tales.” “Howard descendo,” the old man intoned, his voice steady but laced with gravity. The name hit me like a punch to the gut. “What did you just say?” I demanded, my chest tightening. “King Howard, your grandfather,” he continued, stepping closer. “He ruled with an iron fist and an obsession for eternity. Surely, you’ve heard of his quest.” “How do you know this?” My voice wavered despite my best efforts to sound strong. He chuckled dryly. “Because we were once part

    Valkyrie One day earlier *** My last cold war with Ragnor left me hollow. The silence between us had stretched like an unspoken goodbye, and now the emptiness echoed in every corner of my being. I sat by the window in my room at the packhouse, the cool moonlight spilling across the floor, bathing me in its indifferent glow. The world outside was restless—wolves patrolling the borders, whispers of rogues in the shadows—but inside, my battle was far more insidious. I pressed a hand to my belly, the faint flutter beneath my palm grounding me. The life growing within me was the only reason I hadn’t shattered completely. But it wasn’t enough to erase the ache of his absence or the sharp pang of uncertainty clawing at my sanity. Nancy entered quietly, her usual energy subdued as she set a steaming cup of herbal tea on the table beside me. “You need to rest, Val,” she urged gently, her eyes filled with concern. “I’m fine,” I murmured, though my hollow tone be

    Ragnor The figure outside the packhouse didn’t move. Their glowing violet eyes were locked onto mine, unblinking. My body tensed as the beast inside stirred, its growl low and menacing, like a warning drumbeat reverberating through my chest. “Alpha!” Dwayne called from behind me, his voice sharp. “Who is it?” I didn’t answer, my eyes fixed on the figure. Something about them was wrong—unnatural. The way the shadows seemed to cling to their body, shifting like smoke, set my nerves alight. “I’m going out there,” I said, my voice like gravel. “You’re barely standing,” Dwayne snapped. “If this is another threat, you can’t face it alone.” I turned to glare at him, my claws extending in a show of dominance. “Stay here. Protect the pack.” Dwayne didn’t back down, his green eyes flaring with challenge. “Not this time. If you’re walking into a trap, I’m coming with you.” A low growl escaped my throat, but I knew arguing would waste time. Without another word, I turned and headed for

    Ragnor The footsteps were strange—a melody that echoed unnaturally through the ruins of the village. My breath came in ragged bursts, the metallic tang of Garran’s blood still fresh in my mouth. My claws ached from the transformation, and the beast within me stirred with satisfaction, though I felt no relief. The ruins around me were silent, save for that haunting melody. It wasn’t the sound of prey fleeing or the rush of an enemy—it was something else entirely. A song that seemed to reach into the marrow of my bones, pulling me toward it. The beast within me, usually a storm of rage and hunger, hesitated. I froze, my claws curling against the blood-soaked ground as my vision sharpened. The melody wound its way through my mind, soothing and coaxing. My instincts screamed to ignore it, to run, but my body betrayed me. Step by step, I followed the sound, drawn deeper into the crumbling heart of the village. The daylight painted everything in shades of bright yellow, turning th

    Ragnor I finally left at dusk as planned, alone. The forest greeted me with a bitter chill, the air heavy with the scent of earth and decay. No warriors trailed behind me, and Dwayne’s objections still echoed in my ears. He had pleaded to accompany me, but I refused. This was my journey. My burden to bear. The beast within me growled low, restless and impatient. It had grown louder these past weeks, a constant presence in my mind, scratching at my sanity. No one knew this, and why should they? I could carry this curse on my own. “Damn… It’s far,” I muttered, the words barely audible in my wolf form. Every step I took into the forest felt like a step closer to the abyss, but I couldn’t turn back now. Not when Valkyrie and the pup depended on me finding a cure. Or so I thought. The trees thinned as I approached the edge of a desolate village, its skeletal remains standing like monuments to a forgotten time. Buildings were weathered, their walls fractured and cr

    Valkyrie I could still feel the weight of his gaze as I walked away. My heart thudded painfully against my chest, and there was a crushing disappointment threatening to drown me. He didn’t want me. Not really. Not the way I wanted him. The halls of the mansion felt colder now, the once-familiar stone walls pressing in as though they were trying to squeeze the breath from my lungs. I didn’t know where I was going, only that I needed to escape the suffocating tension in that room. I needed space, distance from him and his unreadable silence. Ragnor said he was handling things, but his words felt hollow. I had waited for him to explain, to open up, to tell me what was wrong. But each time, he shut me out, leaving me with more questions than answers. He had always been distant, but tonight, it felt like an impenetrable wall had gone up between us, one that I couldn’t break through, no matter how hard I tried. "How... could you... Ragnor...." I sobbed, my feet pausing at the end

  • His Hybrid Luna   Chapter 59: Leaving At Dusk

    Ragnor My earlier meeting with Dwayne brought a small sense of relief as I planned to finally talk to Valkyrie. Maybe, just maybe, I had the nerve to confront this fear with her. The fire crackled faintly in the hearth as I sat in the darkened study, my gaze fixed on the documents spread before me. Maps, handwritten notes, and a single bloodstained journal—the remnants of my father’s obsession with the curse—were scattered across the desk. My chest tightened as I traced the faded ink with trembling fingers. This curse had stolen so much already. I wouldn’t let it take Valkyrie or our pup. I was determined to see that promise through, but it meant leaving the pack—and Valkyrie. It was a tough decision, but I couldn’t ignore it. Yet, I believed Dwayne and my warriors were strong enough to protect everyone in the pack while I was away. “I have to do this,” I murmured, so sure I would find a way to make things work. The night was eerily silent, but I could hear the sound

    Ragnor The night pressed heavily on my shoulders as I strode through the dense forest surrounding the packhouse, the crisp winter air biting at my skin. I couldn’t go back to the packhouse just yet. I needed to calm my nerves. “Valkyrie…” I whispered her name like a spell, hoping to ease the storm within me. But, of course, I couldn’t. I was too afraid to confront the dark reality of my bloodline—the curse that now ran inside her and the pup she carried. “Damn you, Ragnor.” The words came out as a bitter curse. I felt like a shadow of the man I once was—no longer the commanding Alpha I used to be. The news of Valkyrie’s pregnancy had been both a miracle and a curse. When the doctor had whispered it to me days ago, I should have run to her, held her, and promised her the world. Instead, I had retreated, letting fear and guilt fester. The curse. It was always the curse. It gnawed at my mind, a dark specter that refused to be ignored. The thought of passing that burden to

    Tasya I never thought I’d find myself here, leading the filthiest of animals on my own—the rogues. "Who’s taking her head tonight?" I shouted, my anger rising as I referred to Valkyrie, the target of my plans. None of them dared to speak. That’s what made them idiots—disgusting wenches. "You’re all fools!" "Tasya! My daughter..." My father’s voice cut through my frustration. "They need to know their worth! They never succeed, Father! It's been two weeks now, and no results!" "We need to be patient..." Father closed the distance between us. "And watch your words. They may be fools and disgusting, but they're stronger together. We won’t be the prey here, Tasya." I gulped, his words sending chills down my spine. Though we provide everything here in our secret Beta's territory—food, clothes, and shelter—the rogues are still beasts themselves. How could I forget? "Now, what's the plan? I need to get back to Blue Fire and become the Luna, Father! They need to know they're weak wi

    Valkyrie “Do you really think Tasya could lead the rogues?” I broke the silence, my voice softer than I intended. “How would she even—why would she betray us like this?” “She has her reasons,” Ragnor answered, his voice sharp, his gaze unfocused as he stared at something far beyond the room. “Her imprisonment… it was a punishment she couldn’t bear. I should have seen this coming.” I frowned, stepping closer to him, trying to catch his eyes. “Her punishment is almost over. Why not wait it out?” Ragnor raked a hand through his hair, the motion tight and frustrated, revealing his exhaustion. “Revenge doesn’t wait, Val. She blames me for everything. And now she’s using the rogues to settle the score.” I studied him, noticing the tension in his face, the way the firelight danced across the hard edges of his features. He looked like a man torn between battlefields—one against the world and the other within himself. “You’re exhausted,” I said softly, stepping closer, drawn to him.
