Luna's Awakening CHAPTER 23
“Aurora? What's wrong?”I moved closer to Xander and spoke quietly. “Someone's outside. An intruder.”As if on cue, the festive atmosphere around the bonfire shifted. Pack members picked up on our unease, conversations dying down as alert eyes turned towards the forest's edge. Xander didn't hesitate. With a quick nod to Jaxon and Marcus, he set our defenses in motion.I experienced the usual sensation of strength in my hands, with a gentle silver light coming from my skin. Concentrating on this feeling, I attempted to identify the cause of my discomfort. The forest appeared to be holding its breath, creating an unusual quietness that had spread across our area.A twig snapped in the darkness beyond the bonfire's light. Several pack members growled low in their throats, the sound primal and warning. Xander's voice broke the silence, telling the younger and non-fighters to go back to the pack house for safety.I took a deep breath and moved ahead. I could sense the strange light in my e
Luna's Awakening CHAPTER 24
As we got closer to the edge of Clearwater territory, the smell of smoke and blood became stronger. My stomach felt uneasy, filled with a mix of worry and fear. This place, which used to be my home, now felt strange and dangerous.Xander lifted his hand, telling our group to stop. We stood at the edge of the woods, looking at the messy scene in front of us. The main village of the Clearwater Pack was in a state of chaos, with clear signs of a recent attack. There were damaged buildings, hurt wolves, and a strong feeling of fear in the air.Looking around, I saw the places I knew so well. Memories flooded in. The tree where I'd hide from bullies. The stream that took my tears away. The corners where I felt unseen and unwanted. My hands began to tremble, so I made tight fists to steady them.Xander's sharp eyes noticed my discomfort. He gently pulled me aside, creating a moment of privacy amidst our vigilant pack.“Aurora,” he said softly, his eyes filled with concern. “Talk to me. What
Luna's Awakening CHAPTER 25
I stood before the gathered Clearwater Pack, acutely aware of every pair of eyes fixed upon me. The nervous energy that had been bubbling in my stomach since our arrival now transformed into a steady resolve. I felt Xander's comforting presence next to me, his quiet encouragement making me feel stronger.I inhaled deeply, letting the fresh power I discovered move within me. A gentle silver glow flickered around me, sparking hushed murmurs among the onlookers. This was the time to reveal the person I had grown into.“Clearwater Pack,” I began, my voice carrying across the clearing with an authority I never possessed before. “I stand before you today not as the girl you once knew, but as Luna Aurora of the Blackstone Pack. We've come to offer our aid in your time of need.”I stopped for a moment, giving my words time to be understood. The expressions in front of me showed various feelings—surprise, admiration, and in some cases, a remaining dislike. I noticed Asher standing at the side
Luna's Awakening CHAPTER 26
“Aurora!” Xander's voice cut through my confusion. He rushed to my side, his face a mixture of relief and lingering worry. “You're awake. How do you feel?”“Like I have been hit by a bus,” I groaned, trying to sit up. Xander gently helped me, his touch sending waves of comfort through our bond. “What happened? How long was I out?”Xander's expression grew serious. “You've been out for two days. After that burst of light… we found you collapsed on the battlefield. The rogues retreated, but we've been on high alert ever since.”Two days? My mind reeled at the information. “The red-eyed wolf,” I said urgently. “Did anyone see what happened to him?”The faces around me exchanged glances, and I knew the answer before anyone spoke. “He disappeared,” Selene said softly. “Right after that light engulfed you both.”I closed my eyes, trying to remember what happened. “There was this surge of power,” I explained. “Unlike anything I've felt before. It was like… like the moon itself was flowing th
Luna's Awakening CHAPTER 27
I stood at the edge of the Clearwater pack's main hall, my heart pounding as the first rays of dawn crept through the windows. The weight of my vision pressed heavily on my mind, urging me to action. With a deep breath, I strode into the hall, my voice ringing out clear and strong.“Everyone, gather now! We have urgent matters to discuss!”As wolves began to pour into the hall, sleep still clinging to their eyes, I felt Xander's reassuring presence beside me. Asher appeared moments later, his face etched with concern. Once the hall was filled with members from both packs, I stepped forward, feeling their curious and apprehensive gazes upon me.“Last night,” I began, my eyes starting to glow with a soft silver light, “I had a vision. The red-eyed wolf is planning something big, and it's coming soon. We need to be prepared.”A series of whispers and surprised sounds spread among the people. I could feel the fear growing, ready to become a full-blown panic. Without hesitating, I lifted m
Luna's Awakening CHAPTER 28
The morning sun had just risen when I headed to the training area. Even though it was early, members from both the Blackstone and Clearwater packs were already arriving, showing a mix of focus and tiredness from waking up. As I started to explain what we would do during training, I felt like someone was watching me.Looking around, I saw Asher standing at the side of the group. He was staring at me so hard that it made me feel uneasy. I quickly turned away and started showing a new way to defend ourselves.“Keep in mind,” I said loudly, so everyone could hear, “being ready is important. You have to watch your opponent's movements and guess what they will do next.”While the wolves practiced in pairs, I walked around helping and fixing mistakes. I saw Asher slowly moving closer, trying to get my attention. But before he could reach me, I felt a familiar warmth behind me. Which told me Xander had arrived.“Aurora,” he said, placing his hand gently on my lower back, “we need to talk abou
Luna's Awakening CHAPTER 29
The urgent howl pierced through the quiet night, jolting me awake. My heart raced as I recognized the signal — another rogue attack on our borders. I leapt from the bed, Xander already on his feet beside me.“They're getting bolder,” I said, quickly pulling on my clothes. “This is the third attack this week.”Xander nodded grimly. “We need to end this, and soon.”We rushed out, the pack grounds already a flurry of activity. The Wolves were shifting, gathering in defensive formations we'd practiced countless times. As I moved to assemble my team, a familiar figure stepped into my path.“Aurora, we need to talk,” Asher said, his eyes intense. “About last night-”I cut him off, frustration bubbling up inside me. “Now is not the time, Asher. We're under attack!”Before he could respond, Xander appeared at my side, his presence a comforting warmth. “Asher,” he said, his voice tight with barely contained anger, “focus on the threat at hand. Your personal matters can wait.”Asher's jaw clenc
Luna's Awakening CHAPTER 30
Chapter 30The wind blew strongly through my fur as I hurried back to our pack's home, my heart beating fast with each step. The special team I was with stayed close, and we all felt more worried as the noises of fighting got louder. Growls, howls, and the clear sounds of werewolves fighting each other filled the woods.When we arrived at our pack's home, everything was in complete disarray. Rogues and our pack members were fighting fiercely everywhere. Blood colored the grass, and the air smelled strongly of fear and anger.I looked around quickly, trying to find friends in the confusion. I felt better when I saw Xander, his big black body showing his strength as he fought a group of outlaws. Our eyes met for a moment, and I saw a mix of love and resolve in his look. “Aurora!” Jaxon called. He was fighting nearby, his fur matted with blood. “We need to secure the perimeter!”I nodded, pushing aside my fear and tapping into the well of power within me. As the daughter of the Moon God
